I recently rooted my Galaxy S3 from VZW. It's the first time I rooted since my OGDroid. I was wondering if it's possible to run stock AOSP Google Apps with the stock touchwiz rom. There are a few things I like about Touchwiz (believe it or not) and I really don't want to install a ROM right now.
My question is can I install things like the stock AOSP Jelly Bean dialer, launcher, and messenger app on the stock ui? If so, where can I find them? There seem to be a lot of apps claiming to be stock.
No dialer, but you can have the launcher from the okay store: nova, adw, and apex. As for messenger yes you can head to the theme and apps and you'll find it there.

I have had the s3 since the release date a few months back and am quite satisfied so far. Ive been using android since the G1. Though the new ICS/JB builds are nice, I still like the feel of the old build.
Is it possible to revert back to the Android 1.5 Cupcake on my GS3? If so, how would I go about doing so....?
Im rooted, unlocked bootloader, stock Rom, currently running ICS 4.0.4
No you cannot as the phone was specifically made on ics; however you can try themes and such.

I recently flashed the 4.1.2 leak for Verizon I535 and I am looking at trying to mod it. I really like the setup of Wicked Sensations and Goodness and would love to have some of the options that are incorporated there on my stock rom. Such as, status bar setups (icons, toggels, pull down image capability, etc.). I have tried changing out the systemui.apk, and the framework-res.apk both with no luck. I used ninjamorph to extract and compile the projects but each time when I reboot and fix permission I get bootloop. If anyone knows of a way that I can theme my stock 4.1.2 leak or if Wicked Sensations Rom or Goodness can give me any advice that would be great. I would really like to be able to use the Kuban Updater or the Goddness Updater on the stock 4.1.2 that would be ideal. Thanks in advance.

Mods, Please delete thread if possible I figured out my answer.
So since Verizon is starting to push out the 4.2.2 my phone is now complaining that it wants to update. I don't really want to be forced into a new ROM whenever Verizon thinks it's a good time so I'm looking at my options for rooting and going with a custom ROM. However, I can't find which ROMs allow and which ones disallow the OTAs.
These two sound pretty good:
CleanRom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832070
BoneStock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2275376
Is there a way to know without installing it?
Thanks,
-Greg
Install any rom you want just delete the smd.apk with titanium backup and you won't get bugged for an ota and to be exact it's 4.1.2 ota.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Good call, I'll do that. Thanks!
Synergy and Hyper-drive are both excellent if you like stock plus S4 apps and customization options.

This thread is to keep you informed about 4.4 Leak
Commonly Asked Questions
Whill this trigger Knox?
Answer: NO
Will this update erase my sdcard
NO! as long as you just upgrade it won't, wiping data/factory reset will if you're on stock recovery
Can i root this leak:?:
I assume CF-Root works, Kingo Root, Vroot doesn't
How is the performance
Seems faster when scrolling, UI still lags but less
Any huge changes?
Not quite, this isn't final version so i don't expect it to be fully updated UI.
What's New
New Wallpaper, New OS Version, Camera Icon is now on right bottom corner,New Download Icon
Any Note III Goodies?
Sadly in this version we don't seem to get any, not camera related filters, not lockscreen effect (which can be ported) but i assume people will work on that
Is this good enough as daily driver?
Geeh? the leak has just rolled out and ya keep wan't to know about this info?
Yes it's a daily driver
---reserved---
Camera firmware? Does it contain new bootloader? Thank you.

Hi guys.
I've just started using Lollopop and one of the first things I've noticed is that in my app drawer, there are now 4 apps always at the top that seem to be my most recently used apps.
How do I get rid of this? All I want is my installed apps in alphabetical order. I've looked through the menu but I can't find any kind of menu for changing the app drawer settings, and googling to look for the location of any such menu just gives results on how to install the lollipop app drawer on marshmallow.
I'm using a Nexus 6P incase that's relevant.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
I never used the stock launcher so I can only suggest you to ask in your dedicated forum:

On a side note, it's pretty weird to use the LP launcher on MM
