see someone here try to port Touchwiz to an Incredible 2?
I know there are CM7 Skins.... but I don't want AOSP.
This should probably not be in development.
And to answer your question, yes, yes you most likely are.
The only desirable thing touchwiz has for me is the music control in notification area and omfgb has that so I'm good lol. Love to see em in the sense roms tho

You are very much alone.
Wrong forum but I agree. I think Touchwiz 4.0 is beautiful.
I kinda like touchwiz, I just like sense a lot better
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App
touchwiz 4 *theme* might be nice sure...the entire skin itself...ugh
Yes. Yes you are.
I wouldn't use it just because its called touchwiz. Sounds like a child molester at Hogwarts.
I would absolutely love touchwiz on here id use it daily

TouchWiz is one of the reasons I don't use my Droid Charge...
You may in fact be alone here.. I had a Samsung Fascinate and if it wasn't for the development community I would have been completely turned off from the Droid system.. I thanked the Droid God's when my Fascinate crapped itself and I was able to get a DINC2 for a replacement.. Almost made me switch to an iPhone.. Sends chills down my spine.. $0.02 !!
its probably never gonna happen touchwiz is heavily tied into the framework much like sense is. while a few Samsung phones have a sense port they are far from fully functional. I imagine it would be the same the other way around. not saying it can't be done but I believe it would be much more trouble than its worth

Yep the fascinate almost drove me to an ifone too. Thankfully it had some good developers. And thankfully the inc2 showed me how awesome android was again...good riddance to anything made by Samsung.

I fell in love with HTC with the Eris, loved my inc1, and loving my inc2. I can only hope that HTC produces a phone in the future smaller than 4.3' screen.. Just too big for me. I'd personally like a 3.8' screen. But what can ya do. They seem to actually be getting bigger. 4.65' for a phone is just crazy to me.

Well considering the fact that the new Galaxy S2 has neon support it actually might be possible. It would have to be a full RUU type of ROM because the framework would have to be totally changed. Id say its possible though.

Its not really downgrading your phone its just a different UI. And technically Touchwiz is probably faster considering it doesnt have near the bloat and is a lot closer to AOSP than Sense is.

It will start going out in middle 2012
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
We've seen that statement before. But with Samsung owning both the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S(which gets ICS slightly after the Galaxy N launch) It will be nothing for the Euro GSG2 to get ICH. But as we all know the carries in the US will add months if not quarters to that.
So what I'm saying is don't hold your breath for anything on US SGS2's.
Thank goodness for xda. I bet we have it before the nexus galaxy comes out. And with full root and mods.

the euro/att version will probably have it soon, but the Epic Touch seems to be a whole different animal.
Just enjoy your phone people. History shows that the branded phones will get the OS updates in the middle if 2012, a long time away. I for one love the touchwiz ui on this phone and am happy with it. There is nothing I need the phone to do that is doesn't do with gingerbread.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
We will get it when CM9 comes out for our device. That will be the first we see of it.
No ETAs. Don't ask me and definitely don't ask them.
So get to praying for (or helping with) getting CM7 running now to help with ICS later.
Me? I'm no worry. The phone kicks ass as it is. Enjoy it.
This phone with Ice Cream Sandwich will bring it to another level. Once that happens, I won't feel a need to even want the Galaxy Nexus. Will definetly be able to wait a lot more patient for the SGS3!

**ABOUT THESE ROMS**
These Roms are basically all WIP. They are for any dev that wants to take them over. Im switching to the sgsII and trading my ns4g.. which means I can not work on these
THIS ALSO MEANS THAT I CANNOT PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT FOR THESE!!
Also MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
I thought of this as a big christmas present, or holiday present, for you guys out there. Its also kinda a farewell gift, so enjoy
any dev is encouraged to take these roms and fix them, just give credit if you re-post it
I will have the rom, the download, and a not working list for each port. I will not have updates for these, this is up to other devs.
Some of these may have weird updater scripts, I didnt check them before upload because I like surprises
***THE GOODS***
Droid Razr Port (2.3.6)
not working-
-data
-images are too big, need to be resized
-wifi, bluetooth ( I realized that i suck at these, you will see in the other lists )

-random reboots related to sound

Sense 3.5 Port (2.3ish) (Radiance HD from the Evo 4g Forums! ) ( adb shows mBlockInputEventsBlocked is true when screen or buttons are pressed, so it knows they are there...)
not working
-touchscreen
-buttons
-most likely wifi and bluetooth
This rom seems to be completely functioning, i have recieved messages and it plays notifications, the touchscreen just doesnt work. So after first boot the screen shuts off, and thats it. This would be a good one to fix

You guys really want TouchWiz? It's terrible. I have an Epic and all we try to do is get rid of it. I guess TouchWiz 4 is ok though.
If you want something, you can flash this zip

That'll give you the launcher.
I have the epic touch and am using my nexus until they can get ics on it touch whiz isn't that bad but its bad enough for me not to want to use the best phone on sprint. Plus I got my galaxy nexus so that's holding me over for the mean time

Many (myself included) felt the same way about Sense. I HATED Sense with a passion when I had my Evo, but some people actually wanted it ported over to the nexus.
It's bizarre... those that have a bloated mess of a launcher/fork want vanilla or themed aosp - and nexus owners with vanilla aosp want the bloated Sense mess.

I personally just wanted something other than stock vanilla, miui, tweaked stock vanilla, cm7 vanilla, themed stock vanilla etc.. so I went for random things that maybe not everyone wanted really bad, like the droid razr port or sense 3.5.
I started to hate aosp on my nexus, it was the worst thing and i would have rather flashed froyo sense..

Touchwiz on the Epic Touch is nothing like it was on the Epic. It is blazing fast and smooth. If I could change the icons, I would never use a 3rd party launcher but ADW EX has me hooked right now

Is there a ROM for the SGS2(Epic Touch 4G) with Sense? Is that even possible? I have yet to flash a ROM on any of my rooted devices and curious if there is a ROM with Sense so I can flash it on my SGS2.
There are not currently any Sense roms. In theory its possible but I don't know of anyone working on one for our phone.
You can get close with certain apps on the market.
Honestly, I like Touchwiz better in every way except for the launcher.

They got the port because they used desire as base. Desire is pretty much a nexus 1 but with sense. If we had a Samsung phone with sense *Maybe* it could be ported

Guys i need some help deciding. I am upgrade eligible in June just in time to get the new EVO on launch day. But i dont know if i should get that or the Galaxy Nexus. Here are my thoughts...
EVO
Pros
Sprint flagship phone, hopefully meaning fast updates and large dev community
sligtly better specs including S4 which is a monster from what i understand
the option to run Sense 4.0 or an AOSP rom
kickstand?
Cons
Non-Removable battery
not the most aesthetically pleasing phone
Galaxy Nexus
Pros
its a nexus.... gaurenteed updates
removable battery
Cons
not the top of the spec pile
There is a few threads already.. from the gist of it, it really comes down to user preference. I would wait until galaxy s3 is announced before making a decision.
Gnex- you will get latest software updates fast..
Evo lte - you'll eventually get aosp roms.. but newer hardware, better build quality, etc..
Play with both at the Sprint store
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
Gnex for openess and updates and no manufacture restriction.
Evo for "hardware" and "build quality" and restrictions and very timely updates and less developer support.
I'm getting the gnex simply because its better. The evo has no removeable battery.. that's a big no no. It has a snapdragon which is closed architecture... which means it limits the developers on android and open source OS. Htc's build is great but their super lcd is non comparable to a samoled. Really all personal preference but from my stand point an htc is not a real option.
Oh yeah LEARN HOW TO USE THE SPACE BAR MY GOD.

For my mom who knows nothing about development and could care less about rooting her phone, I'm getting the Evo. She really just wants her phone to work and I think the Evo is more sturdily built.
For myself, I'm waiting for the SGS3 or better yet, the next Nexus that will be based off it. Not in a huge hurry to update, cause I still love my OG Epic and it does everything I need it to for now.
So, basically, it depends on you.
