[Q] [REQUEST] - Mods from CM10.1 - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

Hi folks,
I've recently ported from S2 running CM10.1 nightly to N4 with stock rooted and I'm missing some nice mods / hacks from CM, such as right swipe of notification bar to see settings and left swipe for notifications, long press on settings from notification bar to go for certain settings like WiFi and more.
Does anyone know if such ports from CM10.1 are available for flash to a rooted stock?
If there a list of such ports, I'll appreciate a link.
Thanks in advance,
Bright

Just flash CM10.1

Thanks for the offer, but I would like to remain with my stock
Are there any other resources for applying CM10.1 features to 4.2.1 rooted stock?

With nexus devices, people don't really bother modding the stock rom, as aosp is perfectly stable on the n4 and identical to the stock rom anyway.
No bloody smali hacks, all source

Can notification toggles be installed in asop?

Hey. I just love to have the toggles on a line in the notification drawer. Is it possible to install that in any asop roms?

AOSP roms are built from source...
I.E. Practically every Nexus rom is AOSP.
The only ones that weren't were from the JellyBean nandroid rips that were going 'round after the Google IO.
Assuming you mean "stock" then no, there aren't any such roms with only toggles built in that I've seen.
You should try CM10 if you're into the "stock" feel...
They build their roms slowly with stability and a rock solid base...and minimal customization.
You'll be happy with 'em.
There's several apps that will put toggles in the notifications. I'm using Widgetsoid...

I've never found those apps to satisfy me. I really like the ones in CM10, but i would love them to be in eg. AndroidME AOSP

So depends from the devs, if he wanna include or not..

Well Widgetsoid allow toggling more things than both AOKP and CM so I'm happy enough with it. I set the widget to be hidden and appear on the notification bar.
You could easily just copy the toggle code from one of the ROMs into stock source and compile your own ROM. Or just flash one of the ROMs and be done with it.
Personally, I actually prefer the app "Notification Toggle" (Play Store link) over CM10's. It has good functionality as just an app, but if you're rooted and can install it as a system app, it has great functionality. For instance, if using it as a system app, you can have direct GPS toggle rather than having the GPS icon open location settings.
There are a great number of items that can be put on the toggle bar, it's fully customizable, it can use multiple notification rows, and all icons can be re-ordered. The only "drawback" that I found was that the flashlight option required a specific flashlight app, TeslaLED, but that wasn't too big of a deal for me.

Main differences between Cm10 and Task and Ktoonsez

Hi all.
I am using Cm10 and have been for awhile but was wondering what the main differences are between CM and Task?
Can anyone clarify this for me?
Thanks a lot

I find AOKP gives you more choices to customize your device.
Would you mind elaborating on that and giving me some examples
If not I totally understand.
Have a great evening

You have more options to mod the UI:
ROM Control- you can get nav bar like in nexus
change battery icon style, color
disable or custom boot animation
change toggle style and layout
add brightness bar to statusbar
enable face down audio mode when u put phone face down it would go to silent or vibrate
and more
lots of goodies that in cm10 you have to custom install
I find cm10 to be smoother than aokp

Interesting, seems like there are quite a few extras and worth the trial. The only think i see missing from CM10 is the additional 2 shortcuts from the lock screen (not a huge deal for me anyways)..
I'm curious though, how would one use ROM control with nav bar like in nexus (since S3 already has meny and back capacative)? Just wondering how it may be used..
Thanks again

Some people are used to the nav bar, maybe if they're coming from a Galaxy Nexus or something. I don't find it useful at all, because as you said, the S3 already has a menu, back, and home button. Also, you'll lose a bit of screen space by using them. Hope this helps!

[Q] Android 4.2 mod or rom for old AOKP toggles.

I'm currently on android 4.1 with an AOKP-based rom. I've been looking at several android 4.2 roms and while some of them look like they've got a lot of great features, I really don't want to give up my current toggles. I don't like there being a separate pane/tab for toggles in the notification menu (along with having an extra step to switch back and forth). I don't need a lot of toggles and currently only have 4 at the top of my notification pane (with a brightness slider above them). Does anyone know of a rom that supports the old AOKP toggles in android 4.2 or a mod that can add them? Failing that, is there any mod/rom that can at least show toggles and notifications in the same pane without having to switch back and forth?
Thanks in advance.
I currently use CM10.1, and you can have Quick Settings, the power widget, both, or neither.

Ditto for any CM10.1 based rom. Which is a lot of them.
There's even a handy toggle for right swipe to quick Settings and left for normal notification bar. Made power widget obsolete for me.

Do you recommend any particular CM10 based roms? I've been using mostly AOKP based roms (pre 4.2) but none of the 4.2 AOKP roms seem to have this feature.

The missing link ROM..

Tried all of these ROMs, still have a few more to try for any not listed..
AOKP
CM10.1
PAC man
Paranoid Android
Hyperdrive
Chemistry
Goodness
TN Superior
AOSPA
TW stock/rooted slightly modded
Haven't tried;
Carbon
Helly Bean
JellyBomb (don't like the dark theming)
Liquid Smooth
Avatar (link broken as of this post)
MIUI (never been a fan)
Blackbean
Slim
fre3 (seems promising, just not gotten to it yet)
Anything I missed (man there are a ton of ROMs for SIII, I love it and hate it at the same time)
Now to the point; I feel like there's a gap in the ROMs, I like CM10.1 and AOKP, but I miss the TW launcher..and on TW ROMS I miss the ROM control/quickpanel style settings/notification menu. Also, would love to have the Hybrid settings and the multiview setup, NoteII camera..so far I have liked Goodness the best because it does have the TW style settings menu with some tweaks, but it is missing the AOSP style notifications window.
Ideal ROM, at least for me would include-
TW launcher with modded notifications/settings menu (or AOSP launcher with TW abilities added in, probably easier, like touching and rotating the device from lockscreen to access camera, auto-call when viewing contacts and putting the phone to your ear, Stay awake with eye-awareness, flip to mute, tilt-to-zoom and tilt-to-scroll function when dragging icons among others)
Quickpanel notifications menu and CM-style alarm clock/calender in notifications window with CM-style quick toggles
AOSP JB/ICS theme, don't like TW theme and most third-party themes are tacky to my eye
NoteII apps like SNote and Camera/gallery
S Voice
ROM Control/Navbar/Advanced options (clock location, battery bar, navigation, touchkey backlight toggle, home-button wake toggle)
Added lockscreens from other devices (particularly like the Optimus G lockscreen)
Status bar brightness (not the slider/toggle but the sweep motion)
SBeam and other NFC apps/options
MULTIVIEW
Hybrid options (Tablet UI, Phablet, etc)
Volume button music control
Ability to put folders in the dockbar, create multiple docks\
Screen transitions
Then you could add other things as needed, sound fixes/mods (AC!D or Xloud, VOODOO WOULD BE GREAT I MISS IT, I know Supercurio was working on it last I checked), Kernel tweaks, OC/UV/GOV, theming options, Xperia engine if desired, anything I can't think of now.
In my eyes, if this could be done, that would be the ideal ROM..right now, as of all the ones I have tried, I like half of it and dislike the other half- I feel things are missing. GB touchwiz on the Epic4G never did much for me, but I really like the newer TW options and miss them in AOSP ROMs, likewise, I dislike the lack of options in TW ROMs and miss my CM10.1 on the Epic when I can't do something simple like change the LED color/action, go straight to my alarms from the quickpanel, slide over the status bar to adjust brightness, etc.
Any ideas/questions/comments?

And you missed TPR on the list...very insulted. J/K
Basically from what I read, you want all the touchwiz functions with the AOSP software looks and such. Its not impossible, but it would take a lot of work to port touchwiz to AOSP.

I know nothing about developing or anything like that so maybe someone can answer this: Then how come it's so easy (there are a million off em) for devs to make ROMs with a combo of any of: CM10.1 features, AOSP features, AOKP features, Paranoid Android features... why do we see so many ROMs like that then?! But no TouchWiz features+AOSP features ROM... confuses me what the diff is lol..
I am using Goodness right now. I cannot remember exactly what the AOSP notification window looks like but there is an AOSP theme for Goodness under the Goodness Updater -> Themes -> AOSP Theme
It changes many of the app icons as well as skins on things like the Phone. There are also many other themes and mods under the updater.

This is because TouchWiz, Sense, and all those proprietary rom types are customized by the manufacturers and rely on specific frameworks files for each (HTC roms have the Sense framework, Samsung has the Touchwiz framework, etcetera)
First let me clarify something, CM (all versions) and ParanoidAndroid (its built off of CM) are both AOSP
Now AOSP, AOKP, and ParanoidAndroid (AOSP w/ a DPI engine) are all similar in that they dont have frameworks files that are super specific to their rom type, or not AS specific and specialized that it takes a lot of work to combine them, so its easier to get features from one working on another because theres no need for any (or not a lot of) intermediate frameworks
Lol Kenny my bad..but there's only one question mark in my thread haha I thought it was general discussion since I don't really need help with anything..
But I'm using goodness right now which has most of what I want, I do miss the chronus app and I imported the sounds from cyan, and I do miss the led controls..goodness with nova launcher and the right combination of mods works quite well for me at the moment. Sorry I missed TPR, BTW that should be added to the list of ROMs I have tried
I made a splash screen for that ROM on the epic remember? Lol

Yeah, pretty much...best of both worlds?
Too good to be true...
Sounds like Avatar ROM is pretty much what you're looking for.
Miui toggles, Touch wiz launcher and minor Tw features, aosp based ROM. Give it a shot. Was just updated yesterday.
I would try it, but the download links seem to be broken still..

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:
