[Q] Remove TouchWiz Requirement (Samsung Apps) - Miscellaneous Android Development

Hey, guys! I make this thread because I want to remove the touchwiz requirement of some apps of Samsung, to make it work on CyanogenMod. I've seen some ported apps, like Task Manager or Notes, so I think that it's possible to port more.
Thanks!

mini-app is a unique thing to the Galaxy Tab 2, so it would have to be developed as a mini-app.Right now, the only mini-apps that are available are the Samsung ones. because it is a proprietary of samsung (like the IR blaster) so the only thng you can do is port it. but it requires touch wiz ux frame work so the whole rom should be ported and it is a difficult thing.
It'ss impossible because it need Samsung's framework that' diferent from Android original (CM9 one)
Could always DL equivalent min apps and use something like sidebar launcher to launch them. Tiny apps has a few like floating apps like calc, notes, and music controls. Also their is floating browser, popcorn player, and many more.

Which COOKED ROM comes with Samsung Apps?

As much as I like COOKED ROM, I prefer to have the Samsung apps, Photo Editor etc. I tried to install them but it just FC, even though I ripped the APK from the original firmwares.
Which ROM has the tweaks but left the Samsung apps in?
the onyl one i know that will make that possible is skyhigh... because samsung apps need touchwizz... and only skyhigh have touchwizz

How is it possible to run Stock apps on a custom rom?

My favorite rom so far is [ROM]AllianceROM_JB XXLSZ_v3_|_Evolution_of_TW_Custom_ROMs_| DPI switch online. But its only supported on gt-n7000 galaxy note. I have a att galaxy note i717. Is there a way that someone can port this rom to i717 phone.
I'm curious to how this alliance rom can support stock touchwiz apps like s note and s memo and Samsung apps on a aokp rom? I not sure if the rom is aokp, aosp, cm rom. I just know it looks like a galaxy nexus rom. So how do these stock apps run on a galaxy nexus looking rom?
Are there any roms that can support touchwiz stock apps on a jb galaxy nexus looking rom for i717? I just simply want my phone to look like jb nexus (with the cool notifications) but support smemo, s note, Samsung apps, etc on my i717.
Thanks! Really appreciated, I've been waiting for a rom like this.
If you just care about looks, why not just use a launcher like Apex or Nova ? If you want more after that, consider a ROM.
I don't know anything about the ROM you're talking about but from what I can see it appears to be a TW-based ROM - thus the stock apps will work.
I'm using a TW-based ROM on my S3 and stock apps can work along with other native TW features. But if all you care about is the look you would probably need a launcher, anyway - so I'd start with that and then see what you want to change from there.

Thanks alto. I want a little more than just the look. I want the toggles and contacts in the notification center, custom toggles and lock screen, pretty much the jelly bean features. I like the contacts, message, and phone layout on the nexus. I see that aosp, cm, and aokp have that layout. You know any good roms that have what I'm describing but still support s-note, s memo, and Samsung apps? Thanks in advance!

[Q] question about launchers from other devices

why can't we just install touchwiz launcher and xperia home like normal apk?? why does it need to be "ported"?? isn't those just an apk?? thanks
For Samsungs Touchwiz there are essential apps that it needs (or they say so) to use it, Accuweather.com.apk, mediahub.apk etc. all the apps are built around it, its kinda stupid but they all revolve around each other with sending data (weather,news other stupid things Samsung has built in) same with sense it needs the other apps in order to work.

s4 s5 touchwiz rom like on cm11 base or port

as the name says s4.s5 touchwiz for s2p can we do that?
i mean there are a lot of ports of apps from touchwiz roms, but i couldn't find any from s4 or s5,
(seclauncher3, accuweather 2013 or 2014) that works on cm11,
only works some port it's called note 3 launcher(but its seclauncher2 and 3 accuweather apps and services i think old ones).
so i want people to help me to make look like touchwiz rom or port but i think that is impossible to port touchwiz rom from s4/s5 (not with all the features/bloatware.)
i really like cm11 but i would like dialer, messaging, camera, settings etc etc. i saw on here but on i9000 section Touchwiz Fusion Rom,
so that gave me idea but i only found launcher that works and thats not even the newest launcher form touchwiz..
i apologize everyone if this thread is on wrong place i just didn't knew where to put it...
Must be possible, i know s5 rom is ported to s3 mini.
If it works there it should work in our phone cause our hardware is stronger.
Btw wrong topic! Move to SII Plus Android Development
