my GF just got the new SII bout days ago.
the thing is that UI is so polished that i want that for my nexus s.
tried few rom that given the effect (sorta) but hers (SII) was nicer.
currently my nexus s running NScollab .35 (previously MIUI, Infinity, blabla)
is it possible to achive the same UI as SGSII for my NXS
thanks for my ranting!
Hey i assume you mean you like the Touchwiz launcher that comes as standard on the sg2
i havent used it myself as i have a sg2 already, but have a look at this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
it is a modified tw launcher, that say it works with every •Every device with armv7 processor and froyo or higher.
looked at the link u gave me.
the theme/ui in question still in dev mode
so im not keep to try as really hated FC (got 3-4x per day with earlier ver of NSCollab)
did retry MIUI again (now 1.7.8), can say its better than v1.6.1
so i gonna stick with that first till anything else stable.
thx !
This might be what your looking for in the themes section.

I'm in love with the Touchwiz 4.0 U/I. I'm wondering if it's possible to get that lockscreen on my rooted inspire with CM7?
I bought widget locker, and don't care for it, i've also tried magic locker and didnt care for that either.
MIUI has it

Is MIUI a theme or a rom? I'm new to rooting and rom. I just know i couldn't stand Sense and wanted as close to stock android as possible so i got CM7.
Is MIUI better than CM7?

ROM
MIUI
Is it better? That's personal preference - try them both and make up your mind

Well I love HTC Design and build quality since the HTC Touch Diamond back in 2007/8.
Also February of this year when I got the Inspire there weren't many android options on AT&T. I wasn't getting the outdated Aria or Captivate, I hated the current iteration of Motoblur on the Atrix, and I didn't like Touchwiz 3 on the Infuse that had yet to come out. Best option for me at the time was the Inspire because I couldn't take the iPhone anymore.
I just happen to not be a big fan of U/I skins in general - aside from the new Touchwiz 4.

Well like stated before, if you don't like sense getting an HTC phone was not your best choice however since you made the choice and lucky for you the Inspire has a lot of development, you're not totally boned since you don't like the stock sense feel. Again, I recommend and stand by any of the Collective team's work (Absolution and BBmod). MIUI is nice too but reminds me of an iPhone too much so if I really wanted that type of look, I would have gotten an iPhone (not trying to insult anyone, just my opinion so any of the MIUI fans take exception to that, sorrrrry!!) Best bet try all of the AOSP ROMs and decide for yourself which one you like the most!
Isn't the point of android being able to create your own environment that suits you? Isn't that why we have such a bevvy of ROMs to choose from? I'm on the same boat with the OP, loving HTC's build quality but sense doesn't suit me 100%. I've just recently re-installed LauncherPro and I'm enjoying the environment much better.

Yet you recommend ROMs that strip sense from the phone. Why didn't you just get a Nexus phone?
I'd say that Touchwiz has more in common with the look/feel of an iPhone than MIUI has by far. MIUI has a very nice, clean feel to it and adds a lot of elements of customization to the table. I really enjoyed using it while I had my old Captivate, more so than CM7. Right now I'm enjoying Android Revolution + LauncherPro since this offers the most flexibility for my use. I'd say try out MIUI and see if you like it.

*sigh* NO. TOUCHWIZ, just like any other manufacturer UI, IS CLOSED-SOURCE. IN OTHER WORDS. NO.

My good friend, I think you've misread or misunderstood what I was going at. The OP states he doesn't like sense. My obvious step in logical thinking is, "why get a sense based phone then?" I mean follow your own advice and tell the OP to get a nexus prime since he has explicitly stated he doesn't much like sense.
You're right I do recommend to him CM7 based ROMs because he has stated he doesn't like sense. Why would I advocate or recommend sense based ROMs to a user who has stated he doesn't like sense. I don't mind sense, I actually enjoy the U.I. I don't like that its a resource hog though. So I use CM7 based ROMs, not out of distaste for sense ROMs, just out of lack of customization in most of the sense based ROMs. From time to time I do use sense based ROMs ( BD or ARHD). I've just gotten to know the devs and users of the collective and have a hard time leaving them. Great guys/girls and some of the friendliest people you're gonna meet on XDA.
Like I said, my opinion on MIUI, if you took exception..nothing I can do there friend. That's an inner struggle you'll have to square away. MIUI is a great ROM, never said it wasn't, just reminds me of an iPhone. Plan and simple. My opinion. You're entitled to yours.
Someone, probably from Samsung, shows SGSII with ICS in this video: http://youtu.be/SsV0OOmwvS0
From the video we can see Touchwhiz is overlayed on top of ICS, and this to me seems to be a wrong move from Samsung. It looks just the same as gingerbread, only some part of the OS is using ICS features.
Is this what Galaxy Note going to look like after the ICS update? What's your opinion?
It mite... it does not look like gingerbread.. that's touchwiz with ics.
I bet all phones are gona have their own interface with ics on it...

This is old news. First thread posted a few days ago in the SGS2 forum.
It is indeed TW on top of ICS.
Old news/repost = dead thread.
In answer to your question, yes probably. Sammy will probably lay their UI over ICS for all of their official rollouts...why wouldn't they, when they paid teams of dev's good money to program it?

This is not old news. This is first video of Touchwhiz on top of ICS, from Samsung.
And if this is really what going to happen, I'd rather flash an ICS ROM.

Yes, but it posted 3 days ago in another forum!
It's not news...it'll still be old news if you post it in the HTC HD2 forum.
There's also a CM9 build for the SGS2.
Sadly, though everything's in either Alpha or Beta at the moment.
yes on galaxy it will be look like that !!!
butt we got good developers.... example Cyanogen rom ! classic stock
Hey guys I just looked up a review of the galaxy s III, and not gonna lie the stock ics touchwiz doesn't look bad at all. How similar will our ics update (if we ever get it) be to that?
This is the review I saw:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ar-and-were-only-just-scratching-the-surface/
I actually like the touchwiz ui on this device. Bit better optimized and smoother would be nice though.
maybe we wont get an update, just a "nature" value pack. lol!
Don't even joke like that lol and I really like what they did with the touchwiz
Hello All!
I am a Nexus S user who was gifted the tab plus a few months ago. Having used the Nexus S for well over a year, I really hate Samsung's Touch Wiz interface (Naturally!). I love everything about the device except for the UI.
Is there any stable AOSP ROM for the tab plus out there? I don't care if it’s even ginger bread as long as it has the default android UI! I have been searching the forums, none of the ROMs seems to be even at the RC Level. Please suggest.

If stable is your main concern, update your 7+ to stock ics. Then change the launcher to nova/apex, those launchers are very similar to the stock launcher, with more custom setting.
Or if you like very aosp, try the new cm10 06/09 bulid from aorth. I use that as my daily driver.

[CWM Flashable] [App] [ICS][JB] [SGS III] Touchwiz UX Launcher and Accuweather widget
This seems to be what you are looking for, as far as SGS3 Touchwiz.
Glenn's right, though. RemICS has all the SGS3 packed into one JB (or ICS) Rom. Sounds, live wallpapers, apps, touchwiz...
