I just swapped from HighOnAndroid, a TouchWiz based ROM, to JellyBam 7.4. I really like the customization of JellyBam, but there are a number of system apps that I really don't like, the Clock app, Calendar app, Messenger app, Contacts app, and Phone app. I love the look and feel of the TouchWiz versions of all of those apps. The JellyBam Clock has none of the features of TW clock, the TW calendar has a nice appearance, and i work outside at night, so the white text on black used in the TW Contacts and Messenger apps is perfect. Actually the Messenger app uses the colored balloons on a black background, which i really like.
Where can i find these apps, and can someone explain to me an elementary and simple way to install them? I have a copy of the Clock app, but it wont install. I've tried drag and drop, overwrite, etc. The phone won't let me do anything with the default clock app.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Jellybam roms are banned from xda so you will not find any support on this.
Also
TW based applications don't function on AOSP roms without the TW interface.

Hi all!
Is it possible to make a ROM that contains something from Sense and something from Touchwiz?
I really like the way Samsung does with the icon in the menu, by swiping to right and not a long list that goes down, like HTC does. And the four icons Samsung has at the bottom looks nicer and more useful, that HTC's bottombar.
But I like Sense better overall, that's why I'm wondering if it's possible for me to get a rom with Sense but also with the four bottom icons and the swiping to rinht in the menu (I mean where all of the apps are).
PS! I also like how the dropmenu looks like in Samsung and that you can delete and add as many homescreens as you want.
If you really want the side swipping application screen, just install ADW Launcher
Not a usefull answer guy. He want Sense!
I think in future there will be a modified Sense Version like Launcher Pro for now the only way is to develope it
Or try the rom from ephumuris [ROM] Gefrost Galaxy S Style A2SD, Touchwiz, Music mod

But isen't that a ROM just with Touchwiz and not Sense?
Best you can do atm is install the Samsung Galaxy launcher on top of a Sense rom. Then you will have all the good sense apps (mail, browser, gallery).

Yeah but none of the widgets. However there are a lot of good replacements. That is the best solution for this guys problem though.
I have the same "problem" ...
I want the coloured square background behind the icons in appdrawer.
I started mixing up files from touchwiz.apk and rosie.apk, but first try results in no sense available anymore
I will continue mixing until I get a result!
Someone knows which files are for the appdrawer in the apk???
I'm a beginner, but I've been trying to read up the various posts/wikis around, so I think I have the basics down. I have root and started playing around with various Sense ROMs (because I was familiar with the default Inc ROM, whatever it's called, stock ROM or something?) but a friend has been raving about how he loves Cyanogen (albeit he has a DRIOD) so I tried it out, and liked it.
I really liked the combo weather/clock widget that is included with the HTC Sense UI though, and I was hoping I could somehow copy the .apk files over to the SD card, and then install them after flashing a non-Sense ROM. I've found a few that look promising, like weather.apk and com.htc.WeatherWidget.apk, but after copying them over, nothing would show up in the app or widget menus, so I think I'm either missing files, or it just won't work.
From the little I know, I'm guessing it's perhaps because there are some system files or calls or something specific to the Sense UI that the widget requires to run?
I saw in Titanium backup that certain apps appear to be tied to certain ROMs, for example TB won't let me install "cyanogen settings" on a non-cyanogen ROM.
Is there just a fundamental difference in the code or somewhere that will stop the weather widget from working? Or can I edit or copy enough files to get this to work? Are there replacements for the weather widget? I saw several posts about something called beautiful widgets, but I also heard that it's either no longer available, doesn't work well, or has other problems.
Less importantly, I also prefer the sense keyboard, calculator, and dialer to the cyanogen ones, can any of those be ported over? Or do they have the same problems?
You cannot use Sense widgets with launchers other than Sense. They are tightly integrated.
There's nothing wrong with BW. It's highly customizable and functional. It's definitely still in the market and definitely still being supported.
Cool, I'll go get that.
Any ideas about the calc/dialer/launcher? I don't think those count as widgets, but maybe they're integrated into Sense also.
They are integrated, with the exception of the HTC keyboard. Search for HTC_IME.
If you want your sense items, you will need to run a sense Rom =/

DialerOne
DialerOne will allow for speed dialing in an AOSP ROM.
If you used that feature w/ the Sense-based ROMs, that app is a nice way to get speed dial back. Note that it will replace whatever stock dialer is on the ROM.
Also, the only other place I know of that gives the cool clock/weather for AOSP ROMs is BeautifulWidgets - a paid app from the market.
FWIW - the HTC Flashlight does work in AOSP ROMs.

Fancy Widget Pro
You can skin Fancy Widget Pro to look like the Sense Flip Clock. This is the closest thing to it.
Thanks, I guess the short answer was basically that I just need to get replacements for everything, or learn to like the AOSP versions. Did get Beautiful Widgets though, looks good.
I'm looking for samsung calendar app (which actually is the only Samsung app I really miss) to replace the stock ICS in my rom.
I don't mind if stock calendar will go away.
I'm with XWLP9 deodexed rom
thanks in advance
I'd love that too...
There are just no calendar apps that can display whole month as a widget. There is go launcher calendar and launcher pro calendar, but i want one without the launcher.

Try it out
already tried. as almost all calendars / widgets in play store.
still I'll appreciate to have my samsung calendar back on my phone
I believe it only works on touchwiz launcher. I use apex launcher and don't have the option. But on touchwiz its there.
Just wanted to bump this and see if anyone else can help the thread author and myself. Still looking around for a Samsung calendar that will work on an AOSP-based ROM.
Cheers.
i also join the request. anyone that has the Samsung stock calendar app in his rom, please upload it.
I would love the samsung calendar app.
Running Cyanogenmod 10.1
Is there a way to get the TouchWiz Calendar widget in a seperate apk? I have CM10 installed and like the TW calendar better than the CM one.
Think you are out of luck. The TouchWiz Stock apps made by Samsung tend to only work on TouchWiz based ROMs.
Dang, ok. I'll just have to find a similar calendar widget then.
I simply changed launchers to Nova and I really wanted that Touchwiz widget. I have yet to find one that comes close. They did a really great job with it
I've tried Nova, GO, & Apex and didn't really care for them. Maybe I just didn't give them enough time. I'm really liking CM10 but missing some of the features of TW, like the calendar widget.
Has anyone found a way to get the stock calendar and email app onto CM10? I think the stock TW versions are much better than the ones included in CM10.

Simple Calendar is a pretty great widget if you haven't already checked it out. Very customization and can even include tasks from other apps.

I like the CM10 email app. I think it works a lot quicker than the stock one... But I gotta say the stock calendar is more preferable for me.
I'm using the newest FrostyJB ROM and I like it. Stock with enhancements.
However, I don't like the Samsung dialer/contact manager app.
Is there a way I can flash the stock JellyBean one?
I don't think AOSP Dialer and Contact will work without edits done to them.
I remember a dev for the Vibrant community ported the GingerBread AOSP Dialer and Contacts to our TouchWhiz ROMs, so it's probably possible.
Just need the right person to do it.
You can always try Google Play apps, just make sure not to delete your native ones.
well, if you like the Gingerbread contacts and dialer you'll find that the exDialer is pretty close to that
and you could also change the preferences in it so it would fit even more - slide left\right for call\sms
hope it helps
