ICS having touchwiz? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hey, i got racings ICS build, and when i installed it, everything worked well, but when i loaded up the phone, it has ICS look, but it still has that touch-wiz look when i open up "applications". What's going on?

Racing's build is based off of the ICS leak for the Skyrocket. It's a Touchwiz based ROM from Samsung.

Unless your phone is a nexus, you're getting touchwiz.

install the apex or trebuchet launcher. they will give you a good ics launcher. also, search the rom's thread and there is a samsung boot animation and a mod to make the battery icon blue (both are flashable zips). running apex and the two other mods i listed, i can't tell much difference between the tw ics on my sgs2 and the aosp based ics on my vibrant.

Just wait for Raver's ROM if you want no TW. It'll be some time though.

Alienz is one of the best coming from the vibrant era...
has anyone tried this on rooted stock rom?
let me know please.
thanks in advance.
This will NOT work on stock-based roms. If you'd like, I can post one for them later today. No guarantee it will work though. I don't run stock.
And I don't know what you are talking about. I've been running CM7 since late December. I have no bugs, it is butter-smooth, everything works, and best of all...being CM7, it is themable anyway you wish. For example, CM7 with the Lucid theme found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sonny.theme.lucid&hl=en
is beautiful. Add some ICS themed widgets, and it looks like you are running something even prettier than ICS.
No problems with battery life either. Been getting 18 hours according to Battery Left with a 1.8Ghz OC. You keep saying CM7 is an Alpha but quite honestly, there aren't any bugs on it (provided you keep the GPS on).
I assume this works for 787 as well

No. I don't use Mr. X's CM7 kernel because it is really really choppy (scrolling especially). I use Da_G's Skyrocket CM7 kernel. Imo its is a night and day difference. Everything works except auto-rotation.

You want ics transitions. Go to uot kitchen. Upload what it asks. Go to the mod that says ics transitions and apply. Submit changes to the kitchen and wait until its cooked. Irll give you a flasha le zip if there were no.errors. Nandroid backup and flash. Walla!!!! Ics transitions. Ive done this before and seriously takes a max of an hour dependong on how many requests the kotchen is taking. Ive learbed to be resourceful and figure things out on my own. Also it doesnt hurt to check out the Android apps section in General. There are some good guides there for building base roms, theming and kitchen, building ziPS, extracting stuff. All those mods you guys ask the devs to incorporate are there and most are noob friendly.

He said transition, but either way I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible. It was already backported to cm7 only it broke video playback upon rotation (black screen). Unless that's since been fixed. As far as transitions there's a guide somewhere on how to add it to basically any framework. I'll post a link to the guide if I find it.

[Q] Clean, quick, and PURE ICS ROM?

Seems like any old honkee can make a ROM, nowadays.. I mean, they work their asses off, and that's great, but I'm looking for a daily driver.
I hate touchwiz, entirely. Does anyone know of and recommend an ALL ICS ROM that's worth flashing? I would try Alpha 4 CM9, but the sound of trying an alpha ROM doesn't appeal to me..

You might try Blu Kuban by Rujelus. It comes with Apex Launcher baked in but offers other launcher options (including Touchwiz for those so inclined) in the ROM Updater.
I've been using it as a daily driver since he put it out at the end of April.
Before this I used Venum's Anakonda and had mad love for it as well.

The only thing bad about CM9 is that you can't update profile/prl. Other than that it is a very solid, bug-free ROM.
Well with any luck we might see one of these for our version.

Do you mean pure ics or "all ics"? Because ics is what most of the roms are built from now for our phone. You do have the option to go with calkulin's fe22 rooted and tweaked version. From what I here, its very stable. And its practically stock. And ics! You also have some venum build choices among others. There is definitely something that suits your needs. You may need to do some legwork to find the right one for you.

Which ROM? If you mean Blu Kuban then you obviously haven't tried it. You can have as stock an experience as you want or as detailed as you prefer.
Anakonda was also a very clean ROM, as is Venum Ice.
Calkulin's ROMs are always dependable and Agat has some very nice stuff as well.
Fact of the matter is, you have a smorgasbord of ROMs to choose from and there is something out there for every taste.

I run Alpha 4 as a daily driver. I am actually on the 5/28 build which has a couple new additions over the release of A4 but no real complaints for me at the moment. A ton has happened since Alpha 4. For nearly anyone it should be as good as the ics leaks. I think the main complaint with a few people at this point is connectivity loss and most of those are fixed apparently using the EL29 modem to fix it. Ive had it happen maybe once just toggled in and out of airplane mode to fix it.

Where can I find that?
If you're looking for something clean, MIUI is clearly the best option. It's my daily driver.
CM9 A4 is perfectly ready for daily-driver status as long as you disable LED notifications (huge battery hog with alpha 3, i've kept the same behavior w/ alpha 4 so no idea if it's fixed).
I've consistently gotten 4+ hours of screen on time. Easily goes all day, never had GPS issues, force closes or restarts. Pretty perfect.
Wipe everything.
[and MIUI, but it's about as un-stock ICS as a rom can get looks wise. It's my preferred rom fwiw.]

Legwork is right, my friend! when I say pure ics, I mean stock ics everything. No Sammy dialer, ics stock lockscreen (I kinda like the one that came with calkulins..), pretty much just as close to stock ics as you can get. Wouldn't mind some CPU hacks to help balance the battery and whatnot.

If someone could port the lockscreen mod that is in Mr, Smoothies to TW ICS i think that would put me on ICS for good.

There is a rom available that is AOSP like , but based on TW. Check dev thread, I think its by TJohnson.
it will never happen on CM 10 as they are open source. Most the TW gimmicks are closed source. Doubt they are gonna waste time to reverse engineer something that really adds very little to the experience

I disagree. There was a cm8 sense hybrid ROM developed awhile back for the EVO I believe. It was essentially a sense rom with cm settings. It was quite nice.

CM8 never happened
Only my 2nd day on this phone, but the new TW did learn a few lessons from CM. If you can get your hands on a deodex stock, its just a matter of flashing a theme and using a few apps instead of having the built in customization options. Not the same as CM, but better than than the gs2.

MIUI is based on AOSP as well, I believe. It is not based on TW. The original Evo had a custom rom called Valpak that was a "Senseless" rom. The dev (I think his name was Vaelek) took the Sense based rom from HTC and stripped out all the extra fluff, replaced most of the design elements with with the AOSP "look", and tweaked the performance. Dude wasn't just theming, he really made an awesome rom that ran beautifully. And because he started with a Sense base, there was no loss of hardware performance or bugs (that you usually might have with AOSP, especially if "source" hasn't been released by the OEM).
Anyhow, there was something like that for this phone as well, but I never tried it. If people want a TW+AOSP combination, I would recommend running the leaked JB rom (thanks Freeza and leaker) with Nova Launcher, select the JB theme.

Oh right, it must've been CM7. I totally forgot about the HC business. Anyhow, the ROM existed on the EVO though I believe it was ported from the incredible.

MIUI is based on AOSP as well, I believe. It is not based on TW.

There is a version based on TW and a version based on CM10

Thanks I did not know that. I'll have to give that a try if it ever comes to this phone.
Skyraider is the name of the ROM I was thinking of. It is a Sense CM7 hybrid- based on Sense but with CM7 settings incorporated. The link is here: http://www.teambamf.net/topic/5-rom-skyraider-sense-43-updated-71811/ If this can be done I don't see why a TW/CM10 hybrid wouldn't be possible.
I remember a while back that this one guy from the at&t, I think, forumswas asking some of us to test a touchwiz aokp hybrid. It was a while ago though, not sure what became of it.
