Possible to port over ics apps

I was just wondering if it would be possible to port over the ics browser and Maude some of the other features a will such as updated camera? I have done alit of work with Android phones but am in no way Dev level, I have been able to mood my own rooms but as to petting apps I am not quite sure what it involves

Our camera is better than the aosp one.

Yeah but I WA thinking about the panoramic also I like the doing of the new browser getting more chrome like

Also how much of a hardware difference between ours and the international version since i've is working in that

Personally, I would be interested in the gtalk apk...

EL26/EL29 features a newer camera app and the TouchWiz is the same as in the i9100 ICS leak. The camera now shoots faster and is a lot better.
As far as porting these apps, ICS is still young and there still arent tools out there to accomplish this but they will be there eventually.
A tip I got from another member (cant think of the name) told me about the ICS Calculator in the Market, just search Ice Cream Sandwich Calculator.

The browser would be sweet its multi threaded gbs isn't +1

The browser is now hardware accelerated.

The browser has the "Libs" feature. It's great to use touchscreen for all kinds of shortcurs

[Q] Camera apks

Currently the phone I'm using is on CM9 alpha 6. I love everything about it except for the camera & camcorder. The shutter button lags when I press it and it seems to take a picture just a second or two after I press it. Same thing with camcorder (seems to freeze every time I use it).
Is there any suitable replacement that people are using? If there is one, does it have to be an AOSP specific .apk or will any .apk do (eg: like from Calkulin's roms)?
TIA!
ETA: Think I put this in the wrong part of the forum. I think this would better belong in E4GT Apps & Themes? If so, can a mod please move this?

For camera, there is app in the market called Fast Burst...has the same quick pic capability of the hero one x and sgs3. Camcorder, can't help. But I don't think you can just swap apks out from aosp roms with tw based ones without modding it.

I beleive you are correct due to AOSP being very different from TW.

Appreciate the replies. For some reason, it never hit me that I should use another camera (I've always used the stock ones fine) until I encountered the problems w/CM9's camera. I also found something in Play called Camera ICS+. Seems like that's the closest I would get to a working stock camera. I remember reading that one would have to tweak apks if coming from odexed to deodexed and vice versa but wasn't sure if it applied to something like the camera.

[REQ] Working Stock Widget & App For CM10

I'm now using sematek's CM10 Unofficial build. The ROM is ultra fast, super stable and eye candy at the same time. However, I miss the stock samsung apps, for specific, the Accuweather and Music player. I've read somewhere that they need TW framework to operate. I have a working TW 5 for CM 10 but not sure if the framework is there already or not. I've tried lots of port for GS2 and have zero success so far.
Sure there would be alternative but I want to stay with sammy stock app for a while cause the money we paid partly went to samsung's dev anyway, right?
To sum up, I need a working package of AccuWeather and Stock music player that actually work on CM10. Maybe a port? Or an extract from Sam's offcial JB? Any?

Haven't seen any so far, probably not possible. But love to have one though
《tapatalked from galaxy s3》

I've been wondering the same thing but I'm CM9 nightly and I don't like the launcher. Where did you get TW5 from? I tried the one with modified grid and as soon as I click install. It says "Application not installed" Is it a framework issue?

[Q] Porting Touchwiz Apps to CM10

Hello I would like to know some things about porting Touchwiz Apps to AOSP or CM..
Why there's a port for the Touchwiz Launcher and there can't be a port of Camera or Gallery app for example because those are the ones I would like to have
How it's possible or "legal" to port the Launcher and not the rest of the apps that what I read that illegal to use Touchwiz libs or something but how Launcher? for Example I have Touchwiz Launcher on my phone with CM10 and I would like to have camera and gallery
If its possible to port it? can someone tell me please how to do it
I want camera & gallery apps from samsung because they are a lot better that Original Apps and I dont want to go to Samsung Android..
}
Thanks !

.... who is porting Touchwiz launcher? All of the Touchwiz-based ROM's you see in the Android Development section, be it running ICS or JB, are based on either official builds of ICS, or leaked/ported builds of JB. I've yet to see a PORT of anything TouchWiz on a custom ROM.
Android Development = Samsung build leaks/ports
Original Android Development = CM/AOSP builds.

apparently drewgaren claims he's working on "porting touchwiz apps" to cm10. so lets see how far that'll go. and it requires alot of libs and framework stuff to be cross compiled and then alot of trial and error and then profit. till then .......

Well Now that it is possible to decompile the split back to java it could be easier to do it.

i guess you're not aware of the legal side of stuff using touchwiz stuff on custom rom? good luck googling it and you wonder if its possible. it is but the amount of time you're gonna put in porting all those things could take 2 years. i remember back in xperia x10 days one of the guy was working on porting sony camera and stuff onto a cm7 rom and after 1 year it was still wonky. so go figure. and then he just said forget it.

Yea... there's that to deal with, too. Google doesn't even want Google Apps pre-installed on Cyanogenmod ROM's... so i can't imagine what Sammy's take would be on porting their camera and such to CM roms.

I'm not sure about the s3, but i think on the captivate you could use twlauncher on cm7. You don't get any of the widgets or features though. I personally don't see why you would want to.
I'm with you on wanting the camera. This is the one thing i really miss when I'm on an aosp rom. I compared my wife's camera to mine while i was on cm10. The colors are slightly off (maybe white balance) and the focus time was slower on cm. There are other great camera apps like procapture that will give you more functionality similar to the tw camera.

I am aware if that.
And as far as I know some one had the player working but had a problem with Samsung specific path that the app needed and he couldn't change then since they where hardcoded

Im with you on that one. Ive tried a few other ROMS and they are very good and I do like them. But I miss my stock camera too much so I always go back to a ROM with stick camera.

I wanted S Memo and Video Player cause CM10 doesn't have those type of apps and I think these are better developed than the similar apps on the play store. Besides, I like original stock apps compared to 3rd party apps.

Has anyone actually done this / can provide guidance?
I'm looking to port the video player, clock and yahoo news widget(live wallpaper) from the stock samsung rom over to a cm10 base.

AOSP vs TW camera

Been using TouchWiz since I got my phone (FreeGS3), now switched to LiquidSmooth (4.2.1), and it's awesome...
BUT, the photo quality on TW was MUCH better. So much that I think I'll switch back.
UNLESS anyone knows ... is there a camera app for AOSP that can match the quality of the TW camera?
Has anyone else noticed the inferior photos? Blurrier, less colorful, no HDR ...
And most idiotic of all, the whole "viewfinder" rotates from landscape to portrait ... which makes NO sense.
On a side note ... I wish someone would create a camera app like the HTC Evo 4G LTE where there are TWO buttons on the screen, one for photos, and one for video ... so that you don't have to switch apps!

Samsung's tw camera is the best...I have downloaded camera zoom fx and still the two camera is better by far...I wish there was an apk for the the tw camera on my aosp...all other cameras are slow

Porting the TW camera to AOSP is possible. The TW dependencies just have to be removed. I remember an old friend of mine posted a how to in the OG Epic forums... Might take a look and see if it's something I can poke into

I believe photosphere only works on 4.1.x AOSP based ROMs and not 4.2.x AOSP ROMs...

I have it working on my phone running LiquidSmooth. I have the zip that I used but cannot find the xda thread that I got it from. I'm a little hesitant on posting it, because it's not my work, but I also want to help.
Here is a link to the file: 4CamNex2.zip
This is the stock camera for the Nexus. All you have to do is flash it in your Recovery (I used TWRP). It has a working photosphere, but is very limited in the settings you can change. For instance, I cannot choose the storage location or HDR or any of the fancy stuff that comes with the LiquidSmooth Rom. You can see my screenshots I just took to see what it looks like.
What I have done to mitigate these limitations is that I kept the LiquidSmooth camera. When I want to use Photosphere (which isn't too often), I use the Nexus Camera, and all other pictures are taken with the Stock LiquidSmooth camera. When I do things like set wallpaper, I have to choose my gallery (two cameras = two galleries), but it's not too much of an issue for me.
Hope this helps, and if anyone can find the original thread with this camera, let me know and I'll link it (and remove my dropbox link). I want to give props to whoever created it.

So are the pics quality better with this camera mod compared to whats in liquid smooth ??
