[Q] Awesome Rom/Theme! Anyone want to try to port this? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just browsing different Android site & I found this awesome looking Rom. I would love to have this Rom on my Evo & If that's not possible, would love to have the theme on a 2.3 version of Android. I haven't seen a theme like this on the Evo yet. Only thing I don't like is they used Nova Launcher. Sorry I'm a Go Launcher Fan. lol. Anyone want to see if they can get permission & port this bad boy over to our Evo? Has a video of the Rom to.

[Q] Launcher

I may just be asking to be flamed, but I have to know how come the stock launcher (NON TOUCHWIZ) hasn't been put out yet. Yes I know of Launcher pro and others. The sprint ID one that has been removed from the good roms was pretty good. Also Marcuant from the Epic forums has a ICS beta that's awesome and the launcher on it is cool. Anyway to port that or is the Source files from ICS needed to make that happen?

I'm a little confused as to what you are looking for. If you mean the stock Gingerbread launcher (since that is what we are on) there are a handful of them available in the market.
ASOP Launcher. Or the new ICS launcher. Maybe it's a clone but it's the [email protected] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295515 He has no pics but I did flash the rom on a buddies epic and it runs smooth. The launcher doesn't have the bugs that the other clones do.

The launcher works perfectly on our GS2 FYI.

Thanks for the quick responses. I've played with that one before and it's still laggy and the quicklinks on the right doesn't work well. I really just want someone to abstract the launcher out of the sprint id that's stock android so I can use that as my daily. Oh Snap. This one works well. SMS doesnt work.

The one I linked you to is what Marcusant is using in his ICS themed rom. If you wanna use the stock gingerbread launcher, you've already got it. Just clear defaults on TouchWiz launcher and hit home, select it from the menu. Or use the app 'Home Switcher' and select it in there. Done and done.
I love this launcher. Is there any way to reduce the number of screens from 5 down to 3?

What don't you like about tw?
Sent from Pluto
Just load a new launcher like Go, no need to load a new rom.
Well we both just came from google nexus to the TW fail ... the keyboard is horific, she just does not like change ... to her this is to much change ... she could deal with it but I think she would feel better with it being what she is used to ...
any who I found this "NoWizAOSPmod"
She been on 4.0.4 ... is there a stock 4.0.4 (Vanilla android Experience) for the SG3 Sprint? (i am not having very much luck ... i found on th einternational 4.1.1 and 4.0.4 no problems ... why do the CDMA and LTE have problems anyone?
Give MIUI 2.9.7 a try and use Nova launcher and Swiftkey 3 for a keyboard
MMS, and all the call stuff is working?
try using nova prime or apex launchers ,I'd stay away from Go Launcher it uses alot of resources to run. And you can easily change keyboards, I use SwiftKey 3 and swype beta.
There are a ton of extra you can customize touch wiz.
Custom tw roms get rid of alot of preloaded crap. And as soon as the official release for Sprint jelly bean, must tw roms will be updated.
Tw is the safest way if you want everything to work like normal.

I want a pony....Well, no I really don't. A coffee would be good, though.

A Pony in Hartford??? go grab one off the carousel...
To the OP, as far as kb's, grab swift keyboard, 100x better than the stock TW one.
I'd strongly recommend blazer rom actually for now. Has a stock tw feeling but is butter smooth and has the stock Android keyboard included

[REQUEST] MIUI Power Control Widget

I was wondering if someone could port the MIUI Power Control Widget to AOSP or Stock Samsung Roms.
I think it looks really good. It has got the same function as the AOSP toggles but if you click the 3 dots, a bigger menu opens (see screens attached).
Thanks in advance!
Don't shoot me for asking again, but does anybody know of this or of some kind of alternative that looks this clean?

I've been asking this for a while in different forums but it seem to fall on deaf ears. I would like to see it replace the stock power control widget that you seem to get in all roms as the miui one look soo much nicer.
use mihome app from market, its only working with miui launcher
here is the link
this app is already included in my ROM
check the signature

thanks mate but all I would like is the some help on how to extract the widget from mihome launcher app and add it to miui roms as I use the full Miui v5 for my phones. thanks anyway
but if you know what and how I am very willing to learn. :fingers-crossed:
Ya know, i have never even seen that get brought up before. It is a beautiful widget and would be great if someone can port it. Im not too sure if it is possible though because it may require the miui framework which has quite a few changes from aosp. If your interested, I have a section in my thread (link in sig) that has all (at least to my knowledge) MIUI ports to date.

hey thanks mate will have a read I'm currently using miui v5 from HERE
it's the unofficial miui v5 so as far as my thick skull knows with it's less than average knowledge of these things it should be compatible/work.
would I be right in thinking that getting the right xml files and graphics from the mihome launcher app and putting them into the rom somewhere e.g. framework-res.apk, frameworkmiui-res.apk or miuihome.apk should add the widget to the rom? or am I way off?

is there an Android 2.0 based launcher out there for 4.4?

I like nova launcher and all, but I'd really like to be able to use one of the original pull up app drawer, and if it could have some of the Cm theming as well, that would be great. I just kind of miss having it there, and would like it around just because I lived with it for years on my g1 and kind of liked how it worked.
Not exactly what your looking for but if you set it up right (just a single app drawer button activated from the bottom of the screen only) you could achieve something similar:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jun.ace.piecontrol
GL
yeah...I'm really thinking something like a recompiled version of the android 1.6 stock launcher with an allowance for install on devices with 4.4. If someone wants to attempt this, I think the source code is downloadable from here: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/packages/apps/Launcher/ but I don't know how modifying it would work
I'm still looking for one...isn't there source code that someone could modify and compile?
If I provide the source for the 1.6 launcher, would someone compile it for me?

idk why you want to use the 1.6 launcher or 2.2.
there are faster and more optimized launchers out that. i.e Nova Prime for KK
