I flashed Aorth's CM9 ICS build yesturday and it's been working great for me. Of course it lacks bluetooth and the camera doesn't zoom, but honestly that doesn't bother me. However now there is a Samsung supported ICS FW available. Anyone wanna state the difference between the two? Does the sammy one use touchwiz like on the Galaxy Tab 2? Or is CM9 better anyway in the long run?
Any Sammy OS will will have some form of touchwiz. Its personal preference, I am running CM9 on mine now and have no plans of changing to anything else, unless we somehow get AOKP, which I doubt will happen.

IR doesn't work with CM9 either if you need that.
True, I always forget about that thing.

I'm running Samsung official ICS but I have ditched touchwiz and instead am using the stock android ICS launcher, as I hate touchwiz.
This gives me the best of both worlds: a stable OS release with the same launcher as my GNexus.

Hey just wondering if any one has given any thought to this, I know the leak is for the European, GSM variant but would it be possible to mix and match to make a Rom.i imagine not without the kernel but I figured did ask.

Read somewhere on here that the CM team is already working on CM10 for this device now that we have an unlockable boot loader.

Yes that is awesome, but I actually don't mind the Samsung overlay (highly modified and running nova of course), and there camera has really grown on me. I take allot of pics and while I like pro capture, LG camera and camera zoom fx, they never really seem to work like stock for me.

i was also wondering if we would get a port of the jellybean + touchwiz leaked update.
for some reason i like touchwiz a lot more then stock now.
Even AOSP Jellybean without Samsung enhancements would be interesting to try.
I'm not much into CyanogenMod (no offense to its many fans).

Hello!
I'm new to android wirh my galaxy note 2, and now feeling more comportable than iOS.
Furthurmore I'm satisfied with lovely Spen features and multiwindow.
I'd like to try CM10 based rom, especially PA, but I've heard that I can not use my Spen features and multiwindow.
Is there any chance to use those through the update?
p.s I can't reply on the development post.. thats wht I'm aaking here...
Sent from my GT-N7100 with ARHD 4.0 using xda app-developers app
It will not. S-Note requires Touckwiz framework in order to work properly. Since CM10 and PA are AOSP based roms, any touchwiz specific apps will be broken when running those ROMS. I have heard that you can possibly get them to run, but with functionality so bare you are better off without it.
A good app to try is LectureNotes.
Just as the title suggests. Is this possible? I know the camera probably depends on touchwiz libs etc. but I really want CM but I love the camera on touchwiz. Is it possible to have an AOSP ROM or CM ROM with the stock camera? Thanks in advance!!

I believe it can be achieved, because some gapps have their own custom version of the cameras.
If you have the Camera.apk, try to overwrite the current apk after making a backup first, of course.
I asked this same question a long time ago and was told the framework involved would be to extensive. It does work the other way around though. 4.2 camera on touch wiz. I wish it could be done. Probably one of the biggest reasons I still use TW and not aosp

Thanks for reply guys. This is def the ONLY thing holding me back from switching to CM or any AOSP/AOKP ROM. I use my camera A LOT and the features on the TW camera are awesome, I can't give them up.
Yeah I think the camera is one of the main reasons a lot of us don't switch. It is for me. I haven't even tried aosp yet. I just know I'd miss the TW camera.

So I have been on Touchwiz 4.1.2 (AxisM RLS 21) for a long time and when the GEL laucher apk came out I installed it on my phone and I fell in love with it as soon as I got it and that got me wondering..."What features of Touchwiz do I actually use?" If I dont use any features of Touchwiz then I want to flash a 4.4 ROM (most likely Cyanogen Mod) on my S3. So my question to you is What features are specific to Touchwiz (4.1.2) that arent in Stock (4.4) or on Cyanogen Mod?

What is Knox? I thought 4.3 was focused on Galaxy Gear compatibility...

not just that but knox is like a sandboxed environment essentially separating 2 parts of your phone
for like example 1 work and 1 for development if one of them gets compromised it wont affect the other and you can manage things like remote wipe etc

You lose all of the Samsung branded apps, Kies, and the questionable smart stay function. In return, you get complete control of your device. I have tried a few times to go back to a TW rom in the last year (when CM development slows down and I get bored), but it always feels like going back to kindergarten...
I am on sspencer10's 4.4 build and love it. I even am using the new ART and enjoying the best battery life and smooth function that I have ever had. A few CM options have yet to be thrown in, but these guys are moving fast, and this is my daily driver since last week.

Liquid Smooth
After months of fearing the rooting process, I pulled the trigger last night and rooted my phone for the first time. I flashed a rom (Liquid Smooth to be specific) and I'm loving it. You should definitely get off of TouchWiz as you'll never want to go back!

I saw the OP and I saw that the changelog hasnt been updated in a while. If you dont mind can you tell me what are the bugs and whatnot on it?
The OP in that thread is current. He just does not build everyday because CM does not do a lot daily. Others are cherry picking a lot to add features; they also revert a lot of stuff they cannot get to work. Right now, the camera is not ultra reliable, but everything else is great right now. I use nova, tibu, ROM manager, es file explorer, etc. for utility. 200 or so other apps are stable as well.

Ok thanks... by camera do u mean the default camera app or the camera in general? Because I use snapchat a lot and I obviously need the camera for that
