Has anyone tried dropping the keyboard from the leaked ics rom for the galaxy s II into system/apps on their nexus? I really miss the keyboard from my old Epic 4g Touch. Any ideas?

If I had to guess. It probably requires touchwiz. This may not be the case though because I have had the HTC-ime on some of my phones.

I sure do miss the stock Samsung World Clock/Stopwatch/Timer that was on my Fascinate. Any way to get it on my GNex?
I also really miss this app as well... its one reason I liked touchwiz as a skin.
if you still have your fascinate try getting it from there or you should search the play store for any alternatives. but I haven't found any yet that has all those(stopwatch,world clock,timer) included

Is there a TouchWiz theme for the Nexus. Would love it.

That funny because most people got the gnex for the ABSENCE of manufacturer skins like touchwiz, blur, sense. To each his own I guess but I personally am not aware of a touchwiz theme.

Why in earth did you buy the nexus.... really lame..

OMG!!!!!!! Touch wiz on a Nexus lol!? Touch wiz was the reason I sold my at&t note, well that and the current lack of development compared to the international Note. Plus once AT&T Note gets its official ICS perhaps months from now, it will have a touch wiz overlay. BOO!
Is there a MotoBlur theme?
If so, I would be interested.

Just wondering what people were using before they moved to the gnexus. What was your last phone???
I had the o.g. Samsung epic
Even though I was already on 4.0 contract was up so time to change.

Hey guys! So, its almost time to upgrade from my HTC Droid Incredible and I've been comparing the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S III. I've been running a CM9-based Touchwiz ROM on my Dinc for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it. I actually have been digging it so much that, for a while, I was sold on the Galaxy S III... until just now. The main differences for me between the Nexus and the S III are the camera and Touchwiz. I think I can live with the 5MP camera in the Nexus vs the 8MP camera in the S III, so thats not a total deal-breaker. But what I was wondering is, is there a Touchwiz ROM for the Nexus available? If I can get Touchwiz on the Nexus, I'm sold. There is so much more dev support in the Nexus community vs the S III that I'd really rather get into a Nexus. Thanks everyone for your time!
There is no rom with touchwiz that i know of. but there is a touchwiz launcher you can flash.

Well, a launcher is better than nothing! Also, I just dropped my Dinc and shattered the screen. Looks like I'll be upgrading sooner than expected!

Try www.mrmad.net I have the Galaxy S3 addon for the Galaxy Nexus I am very pleased with it. Have an issue with one or two apps in the build but overall, I like it. They have a Touchwiz addon there as well you might want to check out (use Google Translate to translate the page from German to English)

No touchwiz for gnex but, cm9/cm10 plus a touchwiz theme should do the trick

I got the S3 after having the Evo and then the SII. The SII was a step up in almost every way from the EVo but the big step down for me in the S3 is the keyboard. Why does it have so many more problems then the S2 keyboard?
I tried other keyboards that are supposed to be like the S2 but none are as good.

I love Swype myself but if you want a good standard keyboard the stock ICS keyboard I have attached is better than both the S2 and S3 stock keyboards IMO.

Pony up and get swiftkey and never look back or at anything else again. It's like a proper marriage should be.
Where can I get a working version of swype beta for the S3 ?

I have swift key, I used to under it on my EVO. Got did of it when I got my S2 and found out God the stock kb was. I think the swipe was more accurate then the one in swype. I will try the one you uploaded.
It just seems the swipe function has get little accuracy in the S3 kb.

Yeah the S3 Samsung keyboard with swiping is not very good. I use Swype instead.

you need to make a beta account on beta.swype.com , then you will recieve an email with a link to the installer apk, download that and sign in again, wait for Swype to download, and voila! working Swype Beta
