There are many things that I like in the stock rom: I like the battery life, the Walkman, the camera, the Xperia Z launcher.
The only thing I really hate is the Xperia dialer/contacts app. Badly designed (especially the starred section and the contacts), also looks like ****.
Since we have a Jelly Bean stock kernel, is it possible to install the AOSP dialer/contacts app over it somehow?
My phone is locked, so please don't advise me to install CM10.
Why don't you take a backup and try it?
Also, have you looked in the theme and app section? There are some very good dialer/phone/contact mods in there.

Sorry, but idk how... gapps doesn't include the dialer/contacts app, so I'm not sure how to even get the APK's.

Yes I have, and there are none that would come close to the usability and elegant design of the AOSP dialer. Most of them are just reskins of the Sony dialer.
To get the contacts and stuff download cm10 rom and pull from their ive tried porting them but no luck

I wonder why do you think your ROM is better than Quarx's because if it wasn't you wouldn't make it?
Tell us more about the improvements..

Then what is the purpose of making it?
Will it have style improvements? Or any improvements at all comparing to the official ones?

The purpose of making it is to create a clean rom for people that might not want everything customised. eg. having a blank cardboard box. You can do anything with it.
A simple rom for simple people.
The improvements will be that it might be a bit faster and a bit more space.
i will in the future be creating a rom that is customized
Make it root, take away everything except the essentials, use launcherpro as the default launcher and your done!

And yes just the essentials and root.
Good luck to you bud, hope it will be soon because would be good to see how it performs over stock and other modified Roms.
And just a little note to everyone moaning about this already. if you don't like what he is doing then you know what to do. don't download it then you won't have lost anything will you. he is doing this in his own time with no funding so maybe not should grateful. why don't you create your own Rom and then we can moan about it!!!!

When you got a bit of time mate could do with some help on the kernal update from modaco. can't seem to update it from recovery.

Although you are correct in some way, that wasn't a very smart question. Not everyone likes one same launcher right? But does that mean every dev and android phone manufacturer should put about ten different launchers in their ROMS to suit everyone's needs? Ah, ok!

Hi Guys,
I just want to check if is there a way to flash touchwiz framework to an AOSP ROM for some samsung applications to work? In my SGS2 before, there is a Touchwiz.zip that can be flashed to MIUI ROM to have Touchwiz added to the actual ROM.
Thank you
I would really like to know that too.. Im really interested to try aosp rom (becouse tablet UI), but I personally doen't like aosp calendar and clock apps..
Open the ROM.zip
go to /system/apps/
insert the TouchWiz.apk in apps folder *MIND IT dont give spaces btween app names as Touch Wiz.apk it will give FC Error alwayz*
no need to remove any other launcher included over there
JUST flash this rom and BINGO.....................
Ive no idea of whether we need to fix permissions on new inserted .apk files
Take that risk PLEASE and LEMME noe if u get any errors
Is there any updates with this?

Put the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk in /system/app and other two in /system/framework and reboot and you will have touchwiz...
Important: Donot rename the files....

1°) Could I use the same files on a GN7100 (GN2) ?
2°) would I be able to use this framework to make the TW keyboard work on ProBAM ROM?
Thanks

To make it work, you need all tw framework and its not only in those tw-framework-res but in almost all bits. And so it makes it extremely difficult to port and easy task would be to flash a tw based rom. Much easier

Hi
Thanks for the answer. What I understand is it is not impossible, just maybe not trivial.
Then I take the challenge, I'm downloading the stock rom right now to extract the same three files from it, and put them into the ProBAM ROM... we'll see :laugh:

@vijai2011,

Sorry I know its a older post, but need information about porting touch wiz frame work so as I can make splanner.apk to work with nexus 7, moto razr etc. so far its the best calendar app I have come across. After trying all available calendar in google store.
So question to you is from where you copied the attached touch wiz files....
. Not sure if anyone has had success since.

beats me. Good luck trying to find ANYTHING inverted to work on a stock nexus.
I am rooted. I mean for thr ota when I say stock. I was on cna, but I decided to try the ota and I havent had one hiccup. i miss the cool themes so I was hoping to at least find some inverted apps. I did find a circle bat mod. And I found a themed msg app but I cant send split text. I am running latest matrix kernel.

Hi,
Sorry novice question but, is it possible to install some of the stock Sony Apps onto a custom ROM such as CyanogenMod? I am running CyanogenMod at the moment and I love it, fast, stable, and without much battery drain. I would love to be able to use the Sony stock camera though.
Is it possible, like installing Gapps, but Sapps?
Thanks
Hi,
apps from Sony "usually" need SONY's own framework. Sadly, the framework itself is not opensourced and cannot be used on other roms.
This is the reply you would usually get when asking other rom developers. Sadly, its true tho.

You can download them ROM and push the apk's individually. Like if you want dark Email, you push SemcEmail.apk

It won't. That ROM is stock, but dark themed and a few things added. Nothing you can't ignore or remove yourself.
I gotta agree with the others. Just use ExistenZ, its near close to stock, only good changes plus it's dark like you want it OR just use a deoxed stock ROM.
I kinda like some mix of the light and dark so I just use regular existenz rom with some dark apps, including this "settings.apk" made by xXWeresXx: http://i.imgur.com/N6TWy4R.png
