I'm posting this in q&a cause I dunno is this is really dev worthy.
I ran the latest leak for the international SGSIII, and found two things of interest.
1. /system/app/FlashBarService.apk
2. /system/framework/multiwindow.jar
From the screenshots I've seen of this rom in action on the appropriate device, FlashBarService is the little Grey bar on the side of the screen that let's you choose what to open in MultiWindow (could be wrong though). Obviously the multiwindow.jar is the framework file for running multiwindow.
I ran FlashBarService.apk through apktool and saw the manifest didn't require anything from framework-res but needed the multiwindow jar to run.
I pushed the two files to my d2vzw in the appropriate places, set the permissions and ownership. Rebooted, and got nothing to show for it.
The FlashBarService.apk also seems to need the minimode.jar as well. Also, from the screenshots I saw, multiwindow has to be turned on in settings under display. So that's part of the puzzle too. I didn't have time to try and push the minimode.jar from the intl leak to my device cause I really really need to go to bed.
Any other thoughts on getting some quick and dirty multiwindow action?
I know this is by far the least elegant approach any wunderdev has seen, but it was late and I got inspired to try something silly.
Ta,
ALQI

I have been diligently searching for a functioning port of multi window to our i535's since the note 2 came out and from what everyone in the i9300/i9305 forums is saying multi window is deeply embedded in the framework of touchwiz and from what I've seen no one has successfully ported it the only reason they have multi window working on there devices it due to the 4.1.2 touchwiz leak they got a couple of days ago but if someone can get this to successfully work on our devices I would definitely donate to them I want multi window sooo bad

Is there a flashable zip file or a rom or even an app that supports the motion controls from the galaxy s 2 or the galaxy s3, on this phone?
It might help others respond if you picked one of the threads you've started about bringing GS 2/3 features to the GSGS4G and posted there.
Yea I thought about doing that but I didn't think anyone would see it

Creating threads just so people will see them will end up getting you ignored.
I guess I overestimated how many ppl care about motion controls :/ but on the plus side I found an app that did the trick! feel free to delete this and the other thread

There's more than one actually. First one is "move'n launch" next is "tasker" (super complicated) and some others in the related of move n launch. All are in the market. They're not perfect but they're the next best thing after having a gs2/3

i can confirm drive link works on vzw sg3. installed from samsungapps and work fine.
I think this is the worst "driving mode" app I have ever had the displeasure of using. First of all, it is FAR from intuitive, making you sift through several menus before reaching the shortcuts you want, instead of having the main screen. Plus, they put ones there that are dumb and you can't remove. Instead, they fill up the main screen with weather which, since I have eyes, I can look outside my car and see. Secondly, it is locked into landscape mode, which is horrible since for navigation, you want it in portrait, so you can see more of the road ahead not to the sides. Thirdly, it acts as a normal app, in that when you press home, it goes back to the homescreen. You have to rely on the onscreen horribly placed buttons. If you want a decent one, get Google Car Home. It would be easier to just use my phone normally than use this.

Installed and running it now. Not a bad alternative to swype. Interested when this might be fully supported so that library additions stick.

I wouldn't say one is better than the other. Their differences are strongly compelling advantages. I could see this becoming better than swype in time though with integration into the realtime language structure engine.

So thanks to StrumerJohn and Bleelas we now have a close to stable working version of MIUI! HUGE thanks to those two guys!
MIUI - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028368
I'm starting this topic because I use to run MIUI every once in a while on my original Droid and I have one non-functional issue with it; app icons being all over since there is no app drawer!
So, I ask anyone and everyone to post screenies of their MIUI screens so myself and others can get some ideas on how to customize homescreens on this awesome version of MIUI on the GS3.
THANKS!

When I ran it on my dx and incredible, I would make folders or use ftl launcher. You could still use all the miui icons with that launcher and still have an app drawer.
I loved that rom, gotta flash this once soon.

I'll post a screen shot when i switch to MIUI once it's deemed stable. I ran it for over a year on my dx and the way I had it was my 4 main icons on home and my left screen was 16 most used apps with four folders of other stuff at the bottom. MIUI is an awesome rom, and i am definitely watching the build thread. You could also just install apex launcher from MIUI if you wanted to....

On the last page of the thread someone mentions a random reboot. I am sure they are close to finishing, I am just waiting on that "final" build.
I am anxious to see where this thread goes, because I love getting ideas from others.

So what does it do. Does it allow you to change the theme to your liking. Are there pre determined themes or does it allow you to make it your way.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
You download an apk that themes your status bar and such
Only on aosp roms tho
You can find plenty by searching them through Google adding xda at the end.
I always go for those red themes tho but rats just my liking :thumbup:

I ran cm on my dx and dinc, if it's like that, you can theme status bar, icons, etc. But I'm not sure if it's the same. Search the market for cm theme to give you an idea.
