I think it'd be interesting for someone to come up with a ROM possibly cyanogen or liquid based, and replace everything possible with go apps. ie: go launcher, go locker, go weather, go sms, etc.. it would add an interesting theming aspect that I think many would enjoy. Would this be possible??

well we did this back on froyo for the fascinate touchwiz http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085298
and used many go apps cuz they were miui-y (if that makes sense)
had some issues needing to keep stock contacts.apk in the rom, otherwise you couldnt sync google contacts
on aosp i dont *think* it would be an issue, but on sense i think it would

This looks awesome. How'd you combine TW with MIUI?? Looks pretty crisp with the way it runs. I'd make it myself, but I don't have a computer.... I think it'd be a kool start to a dev'ing career.

andmer was the brains behind the rom really...he had to HEAVILY modify the touchwiz framework to accept miui launcher and miui preferences
hes crazy smart and at the time it looked like no aosp miui would really be functional on the fascinate...eventually once jt1134 got cm7 going, andmer took on porting aosp miui to the fasc and up until recently maintained it
even seeing exactly what he was doing at the time made my head spin, lol...i doubt i could replicate it on my own

That makes me think, I wonder if (since I've heard TW is a pita) you could do the same thing with MIUI and sense. So you could still have a lot of the sense aspects but also have the functionality of MIUI similar to your senseless ROM.

its possible, yes...can i/will i do it? no
really andmer would need a sense device or sbrissen would have to care enough to actually try it
This seems like it would be too much of a hassle when you could just as easily install all of the apps the GO Team has to offer and make it look like you have a full GO ROM.
You could always flash MIUI. IMO it's pretty close to the GO with the right theme settings.

It still wouldn't be the same. I'm talking have something fully themeable like MIUI or cyanogenmod but everything is go instead of whatever is stock in the ROM. I guess, yeah you could do it by downloading it all, but it'd be kooler to see more integration.
Oh, btw nitsuj, I messaged andmer about the MIUI/Sense hybrid. I told him I'd be willing to test if he felt like even fooling with it.

i have no idea what i should do... i LOVE i mean LOVE touchwiz and i had a mytouch 3g and was slow as fck until i put cm6 on it and it was zippy! So if there is a willing dev... is it possible if yall can make touchwiz and cm7 together?
Phresh , CM7 is AOSP and TouchWiz isn't , do you mean the launcher because if you want stock GSII modified launcher it's possible as for the application's I don't think so .

SHOOT! haha cause i love the screenshot way on touchwiz and in cm7 you press the power button and shoot... But im going to push the launcher to the rom right now and honestly i dont see any problem with cm7 alpha right now but the gallery bug the sounds seems perfect with me

Phresh , CM7 run's flawless though . Push the TWLauncher30.apk to /system/app then reboot your phone or press home and it should be there on a list of option's .

Unfortunately, no. Not without some serious framework porting to the SGH-T989. It's a shame, too. The browser is probably one of the best available for Android. You can get the TouchWiz launcher here, though. It's never been as fluid as the original for me, though.

TW's browser uses hardware accelerated animations and scrolling. Sure, it may not have a huge amount of features, but it's the only browser I've used on any mobile device that's been able to handle high Flash websites without a single bit of lag or jitter. The browser was half the reason I bought an SGSII.
Dolphin is fine, but the scrolling can get very jittery, there's no gesture support, and Flash videos slow it down considerably. It's nice, but those of us who don't need as many features...
just install Juggernaut, it has all the stuff you like from CM
Bahahaha the funny thing i did do this XD

You could download tw manager from off of xda and install the touchwiz launcher onto cm7.

I just flashed this ROM today... and I'm still playing around with it... but is it missing the Voice software that my stock came with? (Voice instructions... Driving mode... Ect)... I installed the Google files suggested...
Also, I'm not seeing Swipe at all...
Swype isn't there, I just signed up for the Swype Beta and got it back...the keyboard on this version of Swype is actually preferable to stock imo
Awesome!! Thanx so much for the quick reply...
Cm will be missing alot of extras that came with our phone... but extra customization features that didn't..
Personally I like touchwiz and tw framework apps like the camera and mms app so I stick with roms based of stock.. still fast and look great..
That is till miui drops

Is this your first time using CM? It's the most barebones rom you can get, there won't be any extra software installed like on other roms. It's basically just the core files needed for the phone to operate plus some tweaks & customization options, so you'll have to manually add things like Swype and Driving mode. This is what *I* love about CM though, it's almost like a 'build your own rom' deal.
I'll stick with TW based roms, might try out MIUI. Using the stock android camera, calendar...no thanks. The TW roms are just as fast. I noticed nothing working faster running the CM7 build which is the usual want from everyone at the expense of good looking and more features(not tweaks).
I just flashed CM9 on my Nexus S, it's meh.

thats whats so great about android as opposed to other devices. Not everyone agrees with your opinions so you can have the software you like and I can have the software I like.

Well then welcome to the wonderful, addictive world of Android If you like to customize then stick with CM7. It's pretty safe to assume that development for this phone is gonna be very good. There are a lot of themes on the market, just search "CM7 theme".

If you don't want tw, wait for miui. Theme chooser sucks. Miui destroys everything as far as theme customization goes. You can mix and match parts of different themes.

Ohhhh.... Intrigued!!! I like the sounds of that!
Only thing that I could think that is diffrent is the developers and one has the aokp extra settings tab and cyanogenmod has its own settings and wallpapers.
Is one better than the other and which one do you prefer?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
That's about it. They're both built from source. AOKP has a couple more features. They're both really stable though and I prefer CM10.
Sent from my SGH-T999
They are fairly different...
AOKP has their own source though they do use quite a bit from Cyanogen. They offer the navbar to be enabled which Cyanogen doesn't.
CyanogenMod has a long standing history of being the first and the best... its just true. I would venture to say that their AOSP kernel is the best on the market the update almost daily with input directly from Qualcomm! The big feature that I am fond of is the profiles settings which you won't find most other places. These allow you to set custom "profiles" for different scenarios like work and home that will automatically do just about anything from turning on and off phone function s down to running individual apps. These are also able to be written to NFC tags... you can see the awesomeness?
Ok im a fanboi...
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I have always thought of AOKP includes the best of AOSP an CM. I like them both but prefer AOKP. You can drill down into your device a little deeper to tweak it further in kang. Both are great ROMs though.

CM10 kills battery so fast lol.. and made my gs3 hot
I love the features of various source developed ROMs like AOKP, CM, or Paranoid Android. But at the same time I'm so used to certain Touchwiz things, like the calendar, dialer, browser...
What's the likelihood that someone could move the TW framework and apps over to a source-based ROM? Is it possible? Would it be stable? Or should I just find third party apps and move on with my life?
Some people have been able to port some, not all, of the TW apps but as far as everything else, it's never going to happen. People have wasted hundreds of hours and gotten no where.

I would love to see something like this, but I'm realistic and know its probably not possible.
I can continue to dream about seeing the touchwiz camera on cm10 though, right?

If someone could just get the TW camera ported to AOSP, that would be awesome!
There have been a few in the past that were TW base but had some AOKP things added. But they arent up to date anymore
I know that jellybam has a touchwiz launcher but not the touchwiz apps. Plus i don't know how stable that rom is at the moment.
I've talked with johnsondr80 over at The Collective some time ago, and they apparently looked into merging TW into their ROM, and apparently it became apparent as to how incredibly massive it was going to be to do that. Apparently TW is interwoven throughout the entire ROM, and in essence would require (pretty much) a build from scratch........ I'm not a dev, so I could've misunderstood. But it sounded like it was was too much work for the benefits
