[Q] Putting Touchwiz Framework on ICS. - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do I put touchwiz framework and apps on an ICS rom? I currently use darknight.

You don't. Ics is ported from google source, with a completely different partition type. Same reason you can't put/use tw stuff on cm7/MIUI

Why would you want to?

If you want touchwiz on an ICS rom i would recommend trying out Doc's Master ICS rom v5 he was able to put it on the rom

That's just aesthetics.... All you said was "Android can be themed"
Not the same thing at all. You can put a chimp in a business suit, doesn't mean he can do your taxes.

It's not kernel dependent, it's ROM dependent.

wont work on cog just like mikey said. cog is based on a vibrant rom (since 2.4). the rom has to be based of i9000. i thought kernel has to do to it more than rom.....isnt kernel like the "core" of the rom?
Anyone try this on a JPA/JPO rom yet?

The files in the theme are i9000 files that have their images replaced, etc.
Flashing those onto non-i9000 firmware won't play so nice.

[REQ][Q]Droid X Gingerbread Keyboard

Hey, I was wondering if someone can turn the Droid X Keyboard from the leaked Droid X Gingerbread ROM into an installable APK that works with Gingerbread. I already tried multiple ways to install the APK's designed for 2.2 and 2.1 but none work on Gingerbread, so I decided to find the leak and take out the APK from that.
EDIT: The post at the bottom of the link below has a download that contains both the ODEX and the APK for the Native DroidX 2 keyboard
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772602
My apologies if this is in the wrong section, but I think requests for apps go here as well

Alright sounds good I can't upload the APK and ODEX because they are too big, even when zipped, so the link below goes to a thread that has both those files in a download link at the bottom of the thread.

Here is the deodexed version from my Droid X running Gingerbread 2.3.3, Blur version 4.5.596.
I can't get it to work on CM7. Maybe you guys will have better luck with Samsung ROM's.

Didn't work sadly, I tried installing it and placing it in the APP Folder of the ROM, installing is will result in it saying the apk didn't install and placing it in the APP folder doesn't work

Exactly what I got. I'm not sure what's going on. I'll look at some logcats and see what I can find...
I really like the keyboard though. It's great on the DX. There's more button space on it, compared to the stock Gingerbread KB.

It may be worth pointing out that this is incompatible with Gingerbread so won't run on a Nexus S without ICS.

Has anyone released a gingerbread rom that isn;t touchwix based? I couldn't find any and i don't like the launchers in the market because they are slow and the app drawer is laggy.
Thanks for your help

go to /system/app
remove touchwiz.apk or some apk like that
and in that folder add and launcher u want to use
You can try ICS AOSP / AOKP / MIUI ROMs under Development thread. its totally based on i9220 Chinese leaked ROM(KERNEL). Here u ll get complete taste of ICS.

BOOMED from my BOMBASTIC NOTE :-D
I actually would prefer a ginger asop too atm...
Imilka was it i think who said had made one...
But he couldnt find it anymore...
Maybee we should ask him again...
Instead of building on unstable releases
And trying to make those stable, i would like to use
Like cm7, aosp ginger or miui ginger which will be more than stable
And enough kernel supported for full functionality...
Yes, imilka had it built, but I fear it might be lost now after his HD crash.
Still, I have this overwhelming feeling that the ICS is just around the corner now. It could be only a matter of days before it drops, and then we'll have the proper bugless AOSP to play with.

True...
I am no developer but i think devs like we have here would not need more than 1 day to make a bugfree aosp gingerbread...
And i do still prefer gingerbread in a few points atm...
But the devs know what they are doing...
Their meal their decision...
Since the ICS update for note has been delayed to april/may According to sammobile i more and more see the need for an AOSP/AOKP Gingerbread release...

Best Roms Out!!!

As much as I love CM9 and AOKP from my Captivate days, at this moment in time, I cannot recommend them over "regular" ICS Roms.
Performance from my most recent test is still behind ICS not to mention missing features like MHL.
I currently prefer this:

As soon as CM9/AOKP gets there, then I am of course moving to those as I expect them to be just as good as they were on my Captivate

I prefer the paranoid android rom. It's the best thing that I have ever run on my note.
if you like the stock Gingerbread launcher then stock ICS for the note is great for you.
ofcoarse you can put different launchers i had Apex on the UK ICS release and it was very awsome but.. not as smooth as how Apex runs on CM9
And if you use the SPen functionality which i really..as hard as i want i cant really see my self in using theres an app that functions very much the same as SMemo..
is just called memo just check the Themes and Apps section.
it is pen sensitive is amazing..as good as the SMemo so really..no more missing that extra 1% functionality
also another reason why cm9 is that much better is that...
4.0.4 as oppose to Samsungs 4.0.3
i cant recommend enough..
but make sure if you're coming to either one stock or custom i recommend
for stock UK ICS
and custom CM9
make sure to follow the instructions for installing CM9 ..as you need to revert to a rootable GB rom (2.3.5) and root from there and install CM9 from there..
so read read and..after that read more the install instructions
OP, I don't think you've given us a shred of info about what would make a good ROM for you.

I was on almost-stock GB for a long time and never really used S Memo.
For me, the S-Pen is a great tool for illustration, but to take quick notes I still much prefer to type everything instead.
As such, CM9 and any of its derivatives for me (currently Paranoid Android).
Have to agree, tried all kinds of roms gb and ics, stock to modded, but the best thing I have come across is paranoid android.

Paranoid Android will always top the chart for me
I love the smoothness in Tablet mode! While accessing Citrix from Tablet mode, everything seems to be in place and perfect zoom! Whilst on phone mode I struggle to read my applications..
+1 for Paranoid Android!
I'm currently running KingDroid. This has the new Touchwiz 5.0/SIII look, which in my opinion is much better looking than the old.
The KingDroid also got all of the S Memo/ S Planner apps.
