I don't really understand this either... if you want touchwiz why not flash a touchwiz rom?
Ok, I thought I was the only confused one here lol

i think he's looking for a 4.2.1 rom that comes with a touchwiz launcher. I can't think of any off the top of my head i don't even think there is one.

First 4.2.1 rom and I like the TW launcher. TW Roms they have too many things that I don't use and mostly they are customized by the devs how they like them. And the last thing better battery life than TW roms

Actually there is but it is laggy and FC too often because it is ICS not JB
JellyBam includes the Touchwiz launcher and it is based off of CM10/AOKP. You won't get all of the stock features but if you're only needing the launcher you could try that one out.

+1 Jellybam has alot of options it comes with trebuchet and touchwiz.
Get Nova and the free touchwiz 4.5 theme for the theme engine. That's what I do sometimes. I run LiquidSmooth Beta 2.

i wanted to find a rom that was NOT heavily themed, but performed very well and had good battery and such, and wanted to know also if i found one, could i have the touchwiz 5 on it?
I don't know about TW5, but give The People's Rom a go.
If you desire a custom look, then either flash a compatible theme or use a 3rd party launcher and their themes.
I really like miui either ginger or ideally V4 ICS they both have a theme button you can download tons of different themes and then go with ADW or Apex launchers and Launcher 7 is fun once you tweak it a bit
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
oops, i meant not heavily themed, but miui is nice
Did you want AOSP or TouchWiz based? I suggested a TW rom based off your comment to want TW5.
If you're looking for something flexible, clean & battery life then pretty much any of the following:
Here's your list to try out.
AOSP based:
CM7 (Gingerbread)
CM9 (ICS)
AOKP (ICS)
MIUI v2.1.6 (Gingerbread)
MIUI v4.x (ICS)
TW based (Gingerbread):
The People's Rom [FC09]
Clean GB [EL30]
Cut & Paste Rom [FC09]
SleeperRom [FC09]
RandomRom Thunderhawl v5.1 [FC09]
Get cm9
Nyan colonel
TW5 launcher
TW5 cm9 theme on the market

you could be leave the nyan part off i know its your kernel but i hate when people do that, its like you try to advertise to get people to use it, and mine you nothing wrong but im sure he'll know what to choose on his own seeing how there isn't just yours.
Quite frankly and its funny coming from me but i think STOCK is honestly better than shadow and yours and Samurai's. Used to before on GB it was the other way around.
Personally I love AOKP CM9 build 39 is decent and on play store you can get quite a few like motoblur, touchwiz, and blueinfintium is a nice minimalistic that I prefer. Infintium has pink, orange, blue, black ect

You tend to have weird issues that others don't have. Shadow is the same as the default kernel except it has voodoo and more OC options.

I am a bit new to Android and the GS3. But honestly I am already sick and tired of waiting for Jelly Bean as well as some of the problems of Touchwiz. So I think CM10 is the next thing for me. But I am unsure of the differencr between Touchwiz and CM10. For example I love the quick settings panel, the brilliang camera app and settings, Wi-Fi direct sharing (sbeam) , as well as the smart dialer and decent task manager. I just want to make sure everything will be better.
it's your call. i'd say you should try it out, and if you don't like it, you can always go back to stock touchwiz. just remember to read the op and the last few pages of the thread to make sure there aren't any unwanted problems to deal with. and of course, backup your current rom.

Stock Jelly Bean has been leaked. This will give you all the Jelly Bean goodness without resorting to a custom ROM.
You could also install the touchwiz launcher on CM10 if you like the TouchWiz UI. (I don't)
You can always flash back to stock ICS if you don't like where you end up. Just read the original post and make sure you understand what you're doing so you don't end up with a brick.

So if I tried it and didn't like it, I could just go back to normal and get updates OTA and everything.
Not all S3 are identical. The radio interface are slightly different, region wise. So yes , you can download a Samsung stock ROM off the Internet, it will not be exactly the same. Call and battery performance will be affected slightly.
You can use a backup to restore, it is the closest you can get to original, but rooted.
That it's the complete picture.

Things I like about touchwiz.
Movable home screens.
Little red flags on home screen icon showing unread status.
Social hub for Twitter and Facebook.
A working music player
Swipe right to call, left to SMS
Task manager, less of an issue in ICS and later.
Good alarm app
Best battery performance without tweaking.

yes, but not without some work. you'd need to either restore your backup and unroot, and remove the custom recovery or odin back to stock.

Then I recommend Drew Garen Serenity rom! Its Touchwiz JB, its a GNote2 port, works great if you want the same TW features and more! (Gnote stuff), just use a launcher. I'm using tasks AOKP rom myself and its awesome

I've been stuck with AOSP. I love the TW/Samsung features, just not the interface. Coming from a Nexus, I just got comfortable with minimal. Slimbean, Aokp and liquid smooth are great base ROMs that are light.

The whole thing with that is I don't particularly care for Touchwiz. It kinda ugly and heavy with useless stuff. I just don't want to lose useful features.

yea im in the same position you are, i still change back and fourth because of features on TW that i miss and need often.
I am considering just flashing and trying it out and flashing back if I don't like it. I honestly don't mind Touchwiz, but I feel like if I give in and and wait, then I will just keep falling further behind. Perhaps Touchwiz is better now, but it certainly won't be in January
Touch wiz has too much overlay IMO. Liquid smooth is one of the best AOKP ROMs I've tried. But you will be missing out on Sbeam and everything Samsung related of course. But the sheer speed of aokp is a good enough trade off for me to lose just the neat camera and svoice.
I am using AOKP from Task and ktoonez, I love it but really miss smart stay and allshare cast to the point where I'll probably go back to TW JB once ATT actually releases it. Is there a JB ROM that includes those?
Hey guys,
Is there anyway to get the TouchWiz S3 camera features with one of the custom roms or just stick to a stock?
My brother loves the AOKP but he is insistent on having those default camera features/effects that came with the phone.

Hey, I'm considering getting the Note II very soon, and even if this turns out to not be possible, I'll probably still pick it up as it's a great looking device. It's between this and the Nexus 4. This phone has the edge right now. But the reason I love the Nexus 4 so much, I had the Galaxy Nexus before I broke it, is the Stock Android experience, that pure, clean, feeling. Now I know that it would be possible to flash a stock 4.1/4.2 Jelly Bean ROM onto the Note II not a problem but then my worry is that the S-Pen features and the Split Screen Features and the other major Note II selling points like the Notepad and Sidebar feature would no longer be there which kind of just makes the phone a big Nexus, which I don't see the point of really. So, if someone could point me to a forum post that shows me how to do this, or tell me how if you know yourself you'll definitely have sold the phone to me for sure.
SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE II STOCK ANDROID JELLY BEAN (4.1/4.2) ROM WITH SOME TOUCHWIZ FEATURES (S-Pen, Split-Screen, Sidebar, etc)
***** EDIT *****I was thinking, couldn't I just use Nova Launcher or something similar to get the stock Android Jelly Bean FEEL and LOOK and still have all of the TouchWiz features that I don't want to lose? If anyone can confirm this, or suggest another Launcher, comment please I'm still willing to Root if it means I can do anything to get as close to stock Jelly Bean without losing those amazing Note II features.
There is a rom based on stock with all aosp apps for the S2, and there is MIUI based on stock for the Note 2 which includes all those features, so it is possible, but not available...
I'm also waiting for something like that.

Thanks, is it still worth the Root then? To run root-only-apps? Because it seems pointless putting a Stock 4.2 ROM on the Note II if it means losing all the cool things the Note II can do with all that screen! I'll keep my eye's open for a ROM like this then!

My advise is to keep the original version by Samsung charging on a launcher like nova (as you mentioned) or even the original launcher of 4.2 jb (it was exported from nexus 4..I tried it personally and it was fast like a rocket)..
In this way you have a super stable rom with the original pure Google launcher..
..waiting maybe for a custom with those features. I think in the meantime is the best solution

Switched from Intl -> AT&T, looking for most polished AOSP themed TouchWiz ROM.
Title about sums it up.
I was running null_ on my i9300 and looking for something similar. I tried switching to CM based but I can not get my idle drain down low enough compared to stock. I had hoped it would be better on i747 but no luck :-\
Currently on S3Rx w/ AOSP theme and it's good, but curious if there are any 'goto' opinions here.
Thanks!
Have you tried using greenify app I'm using the same setup as you and get at least 3 hours on screen time but when it comes to aosp I say aokp by task650

Yep, I use greenify to hibernate any trouble/rouge apps and it works great as far as I can tell.
But AOKP is true AOSP/CM based, not TouchWiz like I'm looking for.
Anybody else in the same boat for AOSP theme while on TW?
