Touch wiz with aosp notification bar - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm in cm10 and I'm looking into going back to touch wiz but I can't stand the stock notification bar. Any suggestions on how to get an aosp notification bay and area?
Samsung Galaxy S3

There are a lot of things about Touchjiz that I'm not a fan of, namely everything. But until Samsung release Exynos source code that the (amazing) devs here can work with, I'm having to resort to the stock experience like you, in order to have a working mobile network connection.
Have you found a way to replace the notification bar? I'm on the hunt for an answer so if not, I'll post what I find here...

A theme perhaps?

[REQ] Epic / Galaxy S

i was wondering now with numerous galaxy s phones out if its possible to get a galaxy s rom? I know their are themes such as this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769840
and you can always install the touchwiz launcher, but id love the galaxy s rom for things such as the drop down bar with all the toggles, the look (the theme does a decent job covering that)
and a fully working bottom dock, that rip sometimes doesnt work perfectly.
idk if its possible or if it ever will be?
also (I havent tried it yet, looking for a epic 4g dump, but is it possible to install the galaxy s camera apk on an evo?)
The TouchWiz UI is what you're looking for but I don't think the widgets or notification bar have been ported yet.
well is the touchwiz UI the apk file?
because the key things im looking for are of course the look (like the theme) but the main functionalities im wanting are the notification bar, bottom dock bar and camera rip if it can support the 8mp cam

The touchwiz apk will give you the bottom bar.
Nothing has the notification toggles yet, but I know someone on team douche is planning to implement it.
Camera will probably be too different, and at best we might see a theme.

camera apk would be fantastic...and the lock screen too...serious improvment over evo there
Camera would be nice itll be more than just an apk I'm sure...
Touch wiz is pretty ugly imo..

+1 I have both phones and compared side by side Sense is much nicer imo
comparing both side by side touch wiz comes out a loser to sense.
However, the task bar drop down with 4 radio control buttons is something I anxiously await!
Sense and Touchwiz are a no no... Launcher Pro is where its at IMO. I immediately installed LP on my buddy's Epic and he couldn't be happier.
I'm just pissed the super amoled does 16MILLION colors and we only get 65,000. Boo. Did i mention it also requires no power for black color? damn battery life, got me again.
What i want from the Epic? I want the ability to change the brightness by dragging left/right at the top of the screen by the notifications bar. BOOM, that would be clutch!

[Q] Keyboard icon in status bar

Does anyone know how to get rid of that keyboard icon in the notification bar when typing? I know it's not really hurting anything, but it's kind of annoying. Or is this something a dev will have to remove from a custom ROM?

I couldn't find anywhere to remove it either.. Just a bit annoying unless you are a multiple keyboard freak that likes to try different ones back and forth
Well hopefully when the devs start really customizing roms, that will get pulled out, sort of like the 100% battery notification on some GB roms.

Why Is There No 4G Toggle On Paranoid Android?

I've noticed on some custom ROMs that they are unable to include a 4G toggle, why is this? Is there a fix/patch to remedy this?

There is not a 4g toggle but I believe it contains a 4g widget

Yeah, I'm well aware of that but you have to stop what your doing and go to that screen in order to turn on 4G which is a heck of a lot more time and trouble then a drop down toggle that you can turn on/off almost anywhere.
Anyone know why this toggle is missing???
Maybe its not in JB ASOP so its not in any of the roms
I think I know why. I've noticed that ROMs that have extended toggles don't have 4G toggles. I think it's more related to the theme wanting to be compatible with more things.
Think about it. The theme is probably compatible with more than just this phone. So they would have to make individual themes for each phone. That probably seemed more hectic than necessary.
Kinda lyk why Google didn't include LTE. You would need a particular extended toggle bar for the E4GT and another one for another phone. Without the 4G toggle, the extended menu is compatible with lyk a wide variety.
This is my guess.

Need touchwiz ROM with soft key navbar.

My wife's sgs2 nav bar died. So I flashed slimbean which has a softkey nav bar capability and that rom kicks ass. Problem is that its her phone and she misses touchwiz. Specifically the calendar. So is the anyone out there that can point me to a rom with touchwiz and softkey nav bar, or even better, guide me to a thread that helps me install softkey nav in the Jedi mind trick ROM? Please help guys.

Thanks man, but those are a no go. Tried the first one and its just a pain (it does work in a pinch, just not suitable for daily use). The second one doesn't install nav softkeys, it just allows you to change their properties if the phone already has nav softkeys, which slimbean already has that customization ability baked in.
oo ok scratch that an maybe try this but not promissed but staying on slim but giving her the Touch wiz 5 launcher that way she can still use the stocky look but still have the navbar maybe ???? if not i hate to say it here but you can try out JellyBam on goo.im and in there settings you can download the TW launcher for her or even paranoid since they have the most customization out there and or stable jelly milestone 6 was the stable and true just a thought to try and help
Use whatever rom you like, with the navigation bars you want. Then pay a couple bucks for pure grid calendar widget. Its pretty much the same as the touchwiz Calender widget....plus themes for it.

I would open the phone and see if the ribbon did not pop out. Replacing is expensive( not the keypad, but the screen) as you have to get the screen out and good chance for damaging. Keypad is cheap.
Thanks for the replies. I have actually taken the phone apart and the ribbon cable was in place. Not really interested in a widget either, but it is a nice widget. I did however find this:

Thanks again for all your help!

Which ROM may have this as well?

Hello all,
Currently using Chameleon ROM with my Samsung Epic 4G.
This ROM, while very stable, is unfortunately not being as updated as it should be.
Question: what other ROM has this feature (see picture below)? I like this setup, were I can switch between notifications and toggles. And if there is a ROM that has a WiMax / 4G toggle, even better!
Moved to Q&A
Looks like MIUI style tabs.
I know that most of the JB roms allow you to add a power widget to the notification shade where you can add the 4G toggle.
