[TUT] Transform TouchWiz to look like AOSP/CyanogenMod - Samsung Galaxy Core

Hello Core users! Happy to meet you
"Cant wait for CyanogenMod? me too. Well... because our phone slow
at custom ROM developing, you can pretend you have it with this simple
tutorial that transform your TouchWiz into AOSP/CM!!"
Without wasting time let's begin.
Before messing with your rom better set a backup first.
I'm not responsible for any damage to your device.
This tutorial requires root access
CWM recommended.
1. Launcher

The stock jellybean launcher comes with simple yet interesting interface. You can get it straight out from here:
Android 4.2 Launcher Port - by. TheDarkDefender
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970700
or you can simply download Nova Launcher, Apex, or Epic Launcher [Kitkat AOSP Style,
recommended by CoreGuy] from Google Play Store with
similar appearance and more customizations.
2. System UI and Icons
This mod will theme your system ui (phone interface, icons, etc). But before you can use it you must install Xposed Framework and Xtheme Engine [root required]
1. Xposed thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401
2. Xtheme thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-xthemeengine-beta5-theme-engine-t2240180
Remember to install frameworks on Xposed and activate Xtheme Engine on Xposed modules tab. After successfully install both of the apps you can download the AOSP system ui mod here
AOSP SystemUI Mod - by. pierx
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442835
for CM styled statusbar battery you can find it on the thread.
3. Lockscreen
This mod also requires Xposed, so check it under modules tab on Xposed after installing this app. This mod replace your stock Touchwiz "Swipe" lockscreen with the AOSP one. You can download it here:
AOSP Lockscreen for Touchwiz Mod - by. MohammadAG
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2410945
4. AOSP and CyanogenMod Apps [ Optional ]
This mod is optional, if you loved Touchwiz original apps then skip this but if you want your rom to look more like AOSP then you can follow this step.
You can download ported AOSP apps ( Nexus 4 ), from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/aroma-mega-thread-t1964726
This thread includes :
- AOSP Calendar
- AOSP Contacts
- AOSP E-Mail
- AOSP Keyboard
- AOSP Clock
- AOSP Camera
- All Google Apps (Play Music, Docs, etc)
- and more!
CyanogenMod also has its own interesting apps, you can download all of them
here:
- CM File Manager
- CM Calculator
- CM CLock
- CM Apollo Music Player
- CM Messaging
*Tips : You can 'freeze' original Touchwiz apps with Link2SD or Titanium Backup.
5. CyanogenMod Bootanimation
The last one, cyanogenmod 10 bootanimation. you can download it here
CM10.1 Bootanimation for Samsung - by. Mohitash
Check out his thread!:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349033
How to install QMG file boot anims?:
1. Backup original bootsamsung.qmg and bootsamsungloop.qmg at
system > media. and rename it to e.g 'bootsamsung.qmg.bak'
2. Copy CM10.1 modded 'bootsamsung.qmg' and 'bootsamsungloop.qmg' to
"media" folder
3. Set the new bootanimation file permission to rw- r-- r--
4. Reboot and Enjoy!
That's it! Your phone now looks more like AOSP / CyanogenMod.
Hope you like my thread and Happy Modding!
Press 'Thanks' if you like this.

Im hoping the real cyanogenmod :'(

I disagree with the launcher part, the aosp is too boring and can't remove Google bar and can't make folders or hide apps whereas apex or nova are battery and ram eaters.
I prefer and advise to use "Epic Launcher" or "Epic Launcher Prime" as they are based on aosp 4.4 and are better than any standalone launcher.
Try it yourself
BTW nice guide.

XthemeEngine does not work for me, it says that i have to install Xposed framework, but i already have installed it!

Press de back button and you are done that's what i do when that message appears

Nyc work bro.... Hope we get real cyanogenmod soon and awesome work on boot animation.... Not yet tried.... But i'll try later

No you can't.. Sorry .
Another thing.. If you get fc even after setting things back how they were before first fc, reboot the device and will work again. If not, enter settings and clear data/cache of Trebuchet. Be aware that clearing data of trebuchet resets all settings to default and you will lose widgets, shortcuts and preferences.. :good:

Hi, I'm on AllianceRom XXLSZ TW Evolution v1, with modded settings.
If I understand well, you will need to release a special version for such custom roms ?

Welcome and sure lets hope it gets stable soon.. btw the xposed framework can be used on mostly all roms.....

[Theme 5.x] Windows Phone/Material Fluid

I have created a nice theme for My LG G2 (D801) this should work regardless of carrier though.
The basis of this rom is my SlimLP rom with Xposed custom framework, i do not take credit for any of the creations, just the simple fact of setting the customization up.
First here are some screenshots:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Requirements
- Rooted LG G2
- Philz Touch Recovery or other compatible recovery, I will include a copy of philz touch at the bottom
- Any 5.x Rom for Your G2, i recommend SlimLP it is what i use and it runs very well
- the custom lollipop xposed framework by romracer (attached at the bottom)
- the alpha xposed 3.0 apk (attached at bottom)
- and two xposed modules and one free play store application that we'll get into later
Step 1:
-root, if you are coming from stock, you can use autorec.apk, google it and make sure you get the correct version for your phone
Step2:
- Install a proper recovery, if you use the Autorec application to root and flash your G2, it installs TWRP, since i prefer Philz and it works the best for this application i recommend it, see the attached (THIS RECOVERY ATTACHED IS FOR THE TMOBILE LG G2 (D801) DO NOT USE ON ANY OTHER VARIANT
Step3:
- Back up your stock, if you are using philz you can do a custom back up, i recommend a full entire back up
- Flash your ROM, there are plenty of CR's out there, but i prefer the SlimLP rom, or Sudorootdev's Vanir ASOP rom, both are great choices.
Step 4:
- Flash Gapps, the distribution is your chioce
Step 5:
- boot system and set up with google account
- Go into settings and enable developers settings (settings>about>press build number repeatedly)
- go into developers settings and change root access to enabled for apps and adb, and also turn USB debugging on
- Install the Alpha3.0 Xposed apk
Step 6:
- Reboot into recovery and flash the Xposed lollipop framework
- Reboot system, and wait, depending on the number of applications you have, it could take a long time to "optimize your apps"
- Once booted up go into the Xposed application and it should say that your framework is installed
- Go to download and search for "android Theme Engine" and "Lolistat"
- Activate both and reboot your phone
Step 7:
- Go into android theme engine and scroll down to "navbar themes" check "Enable Navbar Themes" and the select the windows theme
- click the "restart ui" button next to the gear in the app
Step 8:
- Go into lolistat and enable tint navigation bar, and tint notification icons, what this does is merges the native color of the app, as seen in the above pictures, to the navbar and statusbar colors
- WARNING/// Lolistat tends to crash when using the slimrecents feature, to fix this go to settings>interface>recent apps panel>"slim recents" off
Step 9:
- This is the main part of the theme, go to the play store and download WP Launcher, it is free
- once installed, press home and it will prompt you as to use which launcher, select "WP launcher" and click always
Step 10:
- Customize it to your liking, i will include the "Master Chief Approves" picture and you can pull the windows 10 lockscreen picture from and W10 machine
////Further Customization////
- Messaging Metro Beta- for texting, looks very much like a WP messaging application
- ai.type keyboard Free + Emoji- can theme to look like WP

Is the rom 5.x based ie. (5.1, 5.0.1, or 5.0.2) ?

I took a look at the rom, it should support it, but I recommend changing to a newer rom, one that is 5.1 based vs. 5.0 based
