TW features on CM10/AOKP - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Just wondering.. How difficult would it be to incorporate the swipe right to call/swipe left to text feature from TW roms to CM10/AOKP? Please don't kill me for asking, I'm just curious.

Have to admit this was one of the best features of TouchWiz

I knew I wasn't the only one who missed this from TW roms

I know sky-jellybean incorporates a lot of tw parts but its cm10-based so idk if this feature is there or not. Could check it out if you'd like.

I knew I wasn't the only one who missed that feature. I've look everywhere for a hint of it being ported. I think you would have to port contacts, messaging, and dialer for it. Sounds difficult!

Or just use exdialer, which has the feature...

You can't swipe from the contacts app or the messaging app. Mainly for me, is swiping from the messaging app.

Huh? U guys must've missed a setting, because I have exdialer and from both the call log and contacts page I can swipe left/right to call and text
As for.messaging, exdialer doesn't have a messaging app component, so up until recently I've been using gosms. I have since found the cm10 theme Xperia s 2.0 which makes the stock sms app look AMAZING and have been using that

I meant the contacts app. Not the contacts within exdialer. I flashed embryo and had it for a couple days. I'm stuck between aokp because of the rezound mod or embryo for the swipe feature.

Lol and becuz I'm so used to the swipe feature in stock I use exdialer AS my contacts app. Not trying to force it down ur throat just giving alternatives.

I tried using exdialer for a day, it just didn't feel right for me. Though I will keep an eye on it just it case the developers develop a similar messaging app. As of now I'm on embryo because my earphones broke.

Call and text contacts with finger slide

Before i flash cm9 i could call and send sms sliding contacts name in right or left direction now i cant. I dont know if its about touchwiz o what.. how could i solve this?? Or install touchwiz 4.0 im using last entropy cm9 firmware. Sorry my bad english
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA
Its not about touchwiz launcher...its deeper then that...
Its built into the samsung stock contacts app as well as the frameworks...so you are out of luck (none of the ics roms have stock contacts as we have no compatible version or the twframework to support it...)
However (not positive) you can probably download a different contacts app from the play store that allows the swiping...then just uninstall the one that came with the rom

The option that you are looking for is in Samsung Gingerbread.
I'm not sure if that was built into CM9

Emoji keyboard

I think this belongs here under apps but does anybody know of a quality emoji keyboard? I'm running aokp and now that I can see them I would like to use them also. So far the only one I have really found is multi ling keyboard and I don't really like it much.

Not built in the keyboard, but GoSMS offers emojis.
I use it without problems (Except for the new ones iOS just got with their last update)

[Q] Launcher question

I'm on the lookout for a new launcher, maybe.
I'd really like one that shows notification badges (not sure if Xperia does) for all apps (especially K9). Apex only shows notifications for Gmail accounts, and even then I can't seem to get them working recently.
I know that the Tesla Unread plugin shows the notifications on Widget Locker, but does it also work with Nova?
I'm not interested in going back to Go Launcher at all, and I'm not looking at the launchers that are $15.
The ability to customize icons would be nice, but won't affect my decision if something better is out there.
Help me out. I've not used any launchers except Go and Apex for quite some time, so I'm not even sure what's out there and good.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I'm on Nova using Tesla unread notification. I can confirm that it works on Gmail, Samsung emails, messenger, gTalk & goSMS.
I used goLauncher before but it lagged on Embryo 6.1 rom. Was lucky to purchase Nova during Play Store 25ยข sale.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I missed that sale unfortunately.
I'm going back and forth between Nova Prime and Holo HD, unless someone else has another question.

That should say "suggestion", not question...
Now then, if I'm choosing between Holo or Nova, is there a way in either to check for beta versions?

It is different, but not exactly what I'm looking for. To me, MIUI looks more iPhone-ish than I really want.

Tesla unread will not work with free Nova.

I know that. If I choose Nova (over Holo HD or others) I will be purchasing Nova Prime.

My vote is for nova. Great customization options, you have the option of beta version or stable, and yes, k9 mail is available for the count badges.
Pretty sure that sealed the deal for me, thanks!
One off-topic question, though...
What theme are you using in those screenshots? I like it a lot.
Subzero... You can find it here on xda

I confirm Tesla unread notification with Nova (prime) works perfectly with K-9.
Have fun and enjoy.
I use the Xperia Z Launcher, and I love it. It is pretty amazing, except that when at the home screen, pressing the menu button doesn't let you go to settings. You have to find it in your apps.
That is one little annoyance, but other than that it is a great and customizable launcher.

SMS App

For those of us who really don't like SMS in Hangouts for whatever reason, what SMS app are you using and what is one of the best features on it?
Thanks
Tried go sms, handcent and chomp. Don't like any of them. Would love to see the cm, or similar, messaging app as a stand alone app for all devices.

It needs to be updated to 4.4 which they said is in the works.

I'm not actually sure if it will work. It might not be compatible with 4.4 or it might be glitchy. In any case it would prob be best to just stick to hangouts. Not sure though. Anyone have any input if this will work?
8sms. Best sms app. Looks like stock, fast, and quickreply from notification shade.

not mentioned yet so I'll recommend it - sliding messaging... you do have to pay for it but it's very unique and quite a nice app
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I've installed 8SMS, set it to Standalone Mode and disabled Hangouts in Settings/Apps.
Strangely, under Settings/Wireless & networks/Default SMS, 8SMS doesn't show up. I'll be asking someone to text me soon to test that everything is working as it should be. I'll report back.
Edit: Running in Standalone mode didn't work but as soon as i deselected it i could receive SMS. Unfortunately sent messages aren't being received so i'm going back to using Hangouts for now.
I had no idea that Textra and 8sms existed until now (and I've been doing the Android thing since donut). I've been using Hangouts or the CM app, but for non rooted phones I could never find a messaging app I liked. These are beautiful and I'll be putting one on friends' phones to replace the (usually) lacking SMS stock apps.
