I just installed quantum kitkat Rom, and while I like the stock vanilla android, I am coming from s3rx touchwiz and would like a little more eye candy. I guess I'm looking for a different feel, but have no idea where to start looking for themes compatible with this rom. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Search the play store for CM11 themes.

I see a lot of ICS themes and they are awesome man. But I do miss the ole AOSP GB look and feel. I have tried my best to make my own but honestly I don't have the time I wish I did to dedicate to it right now. If anyone feels up to it and wants to make one that would work with the latest ROMs I would be ever grateful.
Pretty much what I would like to see is a Vanilla GB style Theme. But anything AOSPish would be awesome. Thanks in advance to anyone that considers this.
Download latest blazer and instal gb launcher or go flash cm7 from the other site everything but GPS works

Appreciate the suggestions. I'm not ready to sacrifice functionality for true AOSP yet on this phone. I have the aosp launcher running on Calks and have modded most of the apks to have the aosp icons. What I'm looking for is like a aosp dialer and true aosp mms.apks and such. Once CM9 is released I will go towards true aosp roms. But not until. I did the whole aosp flashfest on my GS1 and not ready to do that yet. Plus the CM7 build you speak of wiped my SD card twice soso it still has some little bugs.

have you tried the "clean" overlay from sprint ID?
Try this rom out. Looks like its picking up with some.

Yeah I was hoping that ROM would get updated and it did. I was so Happy to see it. Running it right now with a few personal Mods and loving it. Also I have never messed with sprint ID so not sure what that is. I will have to look into it.
Id just love to be able to find touchwiz roms in one forum and AOSP roms in another. Is that a stupid idea?
I always thought thats what "Android Development" and "Original Android Development" forums were meant for, yet theres always AOSP roms mixed in between whatever Im looking for. Im running BACK to stock now, and cant find a good TW rom. ugh.
Well if your running stock then it will only be in Android development section. As for roms. For 4.3 stock they are all pretty much just debloated roms. So just pick one. You wanna debloat your self flash the stock 4.3 by cenexus

i liked Dandroids AOSP themed stock. it was the most comfortable rom (for me) ever.
Development came to a screeching halt on it. I hate the green themed stock but just want to be up-to-date.

If you enjoyed that, you should keep an eye on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563025
Currently I'm running NB4 and 4.4.2. I'm running AOSP with Slimkat, and multiple apps to make the S Pen usable again. However, I'm looking to switch to TouchWiz but I'm wondering if there is ROM compatible with my device that has an AOSP theme. Or perhaps the UI is just different enough to not look like TouchWiz. I'm trying to get full S Pen Support just like stock, so those apps need to come with the ROM. Also if it's debloated that would be great too in addition to having 4k recording and a great camera app.
I've looked around in our forums but need some suggestions, this isn't a which is the best thread, it's looking for TouchWiz ROMS that may have different theme options close to AOSP, compatible with my device, and all the features and apps from stock. I was interested in X Note, but apparently it's not supported on our device.
Thank you for your time.
Would this work?

ROM Request- Can someone create a ROM or refer me to one which has 4.4.2 KitKat with apps ported from Note 3 and Galaxy S4? I have researched up on this little bit, but without any luck couldn't find a ROM for my carrier. Note 3 currently has 4.4.2 KitKat and after looking at it looks pretty good. It is kind of like the "S4 Revolution ROM," but unfortunately it doesn't support T-Mobile carrier.

Basic idea is that I am looking for a ROM that looks similar to 4.4.2 KitKat running on Note 3 right now.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_02wdy_oENo I am currently running CyanogenMod 11 (M3) for t-mobile, but I started missing some of the features that TouchWiz offers. If anyone has ideas how I can get some Note 3 features: Multiwindows (Quad view, Same app in two windows), note 3 lockscreen(ink effect0...etc. Please let me know how I can get them, but I also do like the new Google Now launcher & do not want to remove it. Is it that I cannot get any of these features in a ROM like CyanogenMod? Because I like how this ROM is but would like to add some "features" if possible. (Current Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999)
Thanks for the help in advance!
Take one of AOSP Kitkat Roms and skin/theme it to make it look like Note 3

Can you provide a link to a ROM like this? And what should I use to theme it?
You can look for LiquidSmooth, PAC Man, AOKP or Slim Bean. For Theaming Look in Play Store for a pretty launcher like Go Launchers and its themes.

I tried looking for these ROMS but none of them run 4.4.2 KitKat.
Request made, as XDA is not a support site, members are expected to read and research the products in the development threads to find what they need. Or learn how to mod what it is they would like.
Does an 'untweaked' Play Edition (Nexus) ROM exist for the GS3. I have done some searching, but when have not had much luck.
Thank you,
Don
By Google Play edition, are you referring to the experience on "Google Play Edition Devices" as listed here? If that's the case, then you are looking for AOSP Roms. (Please Google AOSP). Such Roms offer pure android experience without the manufacturer bloat.
Primary among AOSP Roms is CynogenMod or CM for short. Then there are several other Roms that also offer AOSP experience but add a few niche features. You can find them all in the "Original Android Development" SubForum.
You will also come across Roms that are Touchwiz. These roms are based on Samsung's Stock firmware. If the above is true, you are not looking for this.
A plain AOSP ROM is what I am looking for. I have recently become aware of the xposed framework etc, and want to see how it works with AOSP (rather than an already mod'd ROM).
Thank you again!

Xposed Framework will work pretty well on AOSP Roms. Does some great things.
Which AOSP ROM would you recommend for me to start experimenting with. I assume I want the most basic (pure PE) ROM so modules do not conflict?
I also have a insurance replaced GS3 with the stock TW Samsung ROM on it. Once I root, can I use the Xposed framework on it (would I even want to)?
Thank you for your help and attention.

Keep in mind that wifi calling doesn't work on aosp roms

Yes. There are xposed modules made for touchwiz. Many people love using them, but im not yet convinced its as good using a rom with the desired mods built in.
Id suggest reading up on it and giving it a try to see how well it works for your needs. Just dont forget to backup first of course.

There are quiet a few Roms that are pretty Good. For Ex. Slim Bean, C-Rom, CM to name just a few of the AOSP Roms. As to the Xposed Modules, as Doc said, You'd rather use what's baked into the Rom rather than use corresponding Module.
Here on XDA, we do not "Reccomend" any particular Rom for at least a couple of Reasons.
1. Reccomending one rom does injustice to the hard work of the Developers of the other Roms. They all really are Great ones.
2. What is Good for me and my usage pattern may not hold true for you or anyone else.
Best way to determine is to give each Rom a try and see what you are comfortable with. As always take a Nandroid before hand so you can retrace your Steps.
Xposed mods work on both types. I stick with touchwiz ROMs though mostly for true multi window.
I can confirm Xposed works on S3rx and Docs port of 4.4 from sprint perfectly.
