[Q] Is there a Custom Rom that uses Touchwiz and allow you to customize it? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I was recently with the illusion rom and so far LOVED IT, but there is some stock apps I missed like the camera and stock email so i'm deciding to find a custom touchwiz rom but can't seem to find the right one. Is there a custom touchwiz rom that will do lots of customizing such as changing led colors, lockscreens, status bars, etc.
thank you

As far as changing led's go you can use lightflow.
The rest of your questions can be answered by looking through the op's of the Rom threads. Many offer customizations through aroma, morphology, or on the fly within the rom.

BoneStock and CleanROM are my favorites for custom choices in the AROMA installer.

Is there anymore customizing rom with touchwiz

Most of them are customizable which pretty much negates the need for this thread. It just shows that you haven't seen the android development section to know that most if not all the roms allow for customization.

Hyperdrive is worth looking into as well. Stable and good battery life. Aroma installer. Everything you'd expect.

[Q] Different UI for Nexus S ?

Hey Guyz
i would like to ask if there are other UI's for the Nexus S just like MIUI interface
Because the stock is pretty boring !
There are a lot of roms for NS, starting for CM7 based roms, MIUI, CM9 alpha, and well take a look on the developing section and test the one you want..
Wait a few weeks they're almost done with HTC Sense.
Yeah, and MIUI V4.

You're saying "UI"... do you mean "Launcher"? Because you don't need a custom rom to change the way the phone looks. There are lots of them on the market, just to name a few I've tested:
-ADWLauncher EX: smoother than regular ADWLauncher, highly customizable, worth the purchase (for me at least, runs great)
-LauncherPro: also very smooth, pretty customizable
-Go Launcher EX: can't say I loved it too much, but also nice looking.
Take your pick. Hope this is what you were searching for, a replacement LAUNCHER, not a replacement ROM.
I don't mean the launchers.
I mean different transitions, icons,statusbar,notification and etc like the full framework has been changed as you see in MIUI Rom

The MIUI ROM is still based off of Gingerbread and hides it really well. Though most of it is recognizable once you see past the themes and skins.
If you want a list of different ROMs, some of which sport their own framework visit the Nexus S ROM thread
here.
Also as flodb113 pointed out, essentially you are looking for a different launcher. ADWLauncher is a good place to start off if you're not looking to flash a new ROM.
The ADWLauncher contains themes which can change the whole appearance of the UI including: transitions, icons, statusbar, notifications and etc.
But isnt a UI called RoUI available?

If you are referring to this then it only allows you to customize the lockscreen. Which is similar to changing a launcher; no flashing required.

Miui is available for the NS and NS4G, just flash it.
Not sure why you chose the Nexus if you're looking for a flashy interface... The nexus was designed as a vehicle for the bare bones, no frills aosp android experience.

What Do YOU Want In a Rom?

I am thinking of creating a custom Rom for the Verizon Galaxy S III. I am planning of basing it on AOSP, and I know what features I want out of the Rom. I'm posting here so that you can reply with what YOU would want in a Rom so that I can develop it for you
POST DEM REQUESTS!
As many customization options as possible. Def notification background customization. I wish we could get the aokp circles lock screen but with notification rings like on tw ROMs

I was thinking of including most of the AOKP customization options. Are you saying that you want the notification ringtones from touchwiz?
Include codename android features and you'll be loved lol
Jellywiz, plus aokp settings, plus "kinda crap mods" during install, minus as many apps as possible, choice of radio, choice of kernel during install...
Hmm what else, lol
Of course up to date android version, oh and the mms app from aosp with the quick reply in the drop down status would be nice.
I'm sure i could keep going, but you asked

Thanks for your feedback! This will be a jelly bean rom... However, I am planning on making this rom more of a "stock" android rom. I am leaving out touchwiz because in my opinion it makes many things slower and it just feels clunky to me. I will be trying to incorporate features from CyanogenMod, AOKP, CodenameAndroid, and maybe even a few from ParanoidAndroid. Kinda Crap's mods are intended for touchwiz based roms, so I will most likely leave those out, however I may try to include Pimp my Rom's features. When it come's to choice of Kernel, instead of making it a choice during install, I might just post links to the kernel's on the Rom's thread and give detailed instructions on how to flash each one (as well as the optimum setting in my opinion).

[Q] any touchwiz 5 nature ux rom/launcher for skyrocket?

is there any rom or launcher for the skyrocket i727 that uses the touchwiz nature ux, with all the icons and screens almost exactly like the galaxy S3?
search only turns up the sky jelly bean rom, but that has different (nexus) app icons and is different in other features.
i saw that the salman ics rom comes close to the S3 rom... but that's available for the galaxy S2, couldn't find it for skyrocket
please suggest something, as I'm sure at least something has to be out there. doesn't matter if it's ics or jelly bean.
any help is appreciated.
thanks
Have you tried this? I know it works with our CM10. Probably others too.

Well I haven't read the OP closely enough to know if it was supposed to change those. You could try searching for a CM10 "theme chooser" TouchWiz theme. I know there's some out there.

thanks. i searched and found a couple of touchwiz themes.
this comes pretty close to the one on galaxy S3.

Hey new to the Samsung Community

Hey everyone, I'm new to the Samsung community but not new to XDA. Unfortunately my droid razr decided to stop working on me today and I had to purchase a new phone so I went with the galaxy s3. This is my first samsung phone. I already have rooted the phone and unlocked the bootloader following one of the guides on this forum. So far after one day I am quite satisfied with the galaxy s3. I am now faced with a decision with what ROM to use on the phone, so I am posting here to get input on what ROMs you guys think are the best. Thanks in advance.
* I really like the functionality of Touch Wiz.
* I like to use my phone for games

welcome to the forum
threads like this often get closed, as an FYI.
if you like touchwiz check out the options in the development forum. theres also some AOSP options there that you might be used to.
the original development has AOSP optinos too.
every rom runs different on each phone so read up and try a few!
heres a place to start some reading for user experiences.

Thank you, so far I'm torn between two ROM's RLS15 or Luquid Smooth 2.9?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
dpeneds what you like. if you like the touchwiz features checkout a touchwiz rom. ify ou want AOSP go that route.
try both for a few days and see which you like better.

Hyperdrive is good. I have not tried ls 2.9 but i did flash 2.8 for a short time but the battery drain was awful. Touchwiz roms have much better battery life which woud probably be good for you since you like to play games. Hyperdrive also has an aosp theme in aroma if you like the look of aosp over stock tw (which i personally do). But everyones different and the best way to know is to try both. Its easy to change if you dont like it.

Hyperdrive is touchwiz. Jelly "Beans" and Dandroid are also touchwiz but themed to look aosp out of the box. Alot of the touchwiz roms can be themed either to look like aosp or some other theme.

There is no such thing as a Best ROM
Best way is to try them to find out which is best for YOU. What theme you find pleasing, what gives YOU the best battery based on YOUR usage and signal strength. Just read through the top page of ROMs and try a few.

[Q] Tired of all the black...

I'm getting tired of blacked out everything......dialer, sms, settings, backgrounds for everything etc....
I recently bought a windows tablet and love the colors, fonts, minimal clean look. I like the look of the new ios for iPhone(but I HATE Apple). Also, I really like the way google now is themed. I'm looking to make my phone look something like that. I'm really in to the modern, clean, minimalist look.
I feel like the answer is some sort of theme, but I can't find one that I like. That is where I am hoping someone can help. I am currently running nova prime on Liquid Smooth 3.0.
Any suggestions/recommendations?
Are you rooted and custom rom'd?

I've tried MIUI and thats too close to ios and I hate not having a app drawer......What I meant is I like the color combos they use. I really love running liquid, slim and other custom ROMS. I'm just looking for something a little brighter I guess. Thanks for the input though.
No biggie, I just thought I would ask. Surely there is someone else out there who would like the same thing.
Try Avatar ROM...its aosp but with miui theming abilities
