highly unlikely, touchwiz is samsungs skin for android and those other features are more likely Samsung proprietary code and drivers so I doubt they would get ported

Why didn't he just bought a Samsung device....?

1 and 2 are possibly portable to Xperia.
3,4,5 are apps leveraging the sensors in the phone. Samsung has these sensors and made apps to showcase them. May not hold true for Z.

Only number 5 is impossible as it is a hardware feature, the others are doable... but good ****ing luck finding someone who actually wants to spend with TouchWiz, let alone take on the monster job of porting the crap to the XZ.

What do you mean? It wouldn't work?
My wife just got a s3-mini on which I installed BenzROMv6 (awesome ROM, btw!) Now she has the player with that "music square" which makes me jealous - would like to have that on my Nexus-S, too. I'm running HellyBean on it, but wouldn't hesitate to switch if I only could have that player
Searched the web and this forum, but still have no idea how to do that.
I successfully ex-/imported it with the help of Titanium, but it exits immediately when launched. My experience ist too poor to find the cause. Is it only the different Android version (4.2.1 vs. 4.1.2)?
Any hint is much appreciated, thanks!
Fredl.

AFAIK, The music player is dependent on the Touchwiz framework therefore it can't work on the Nexus. That's why it force closes upon launch.

Thanks for your reply.
That could make some sense. Although I don't understand for what the player needs touchwiz. But again, my lack of knowledge...
On the other hand it would mean, the people who want to get rid of or at least disable TW on their SGS3 would lose that player at the same time. Can that be?
Also, I see some efforts to bring TW to the NS. Have to check the reports on that. As far as I see, the musicplayer seems not to work on these addons, too. Damned
Well, thanks for pointing out some new tracks anyway :good:
Regards,
Fredl.

I'm sure it is something Samsung does so the music player will be used only on Samsung devices with touchwiz. They wanna own it
And yeah, if you get rid of touchwiz on S3 and install an AOSP based ROM, you will lose the player.

Why exactly would you like that music player?

That music square feature is great! I would love to have that on my nexus 7 in my car too!

Rom similar to the Xperia Z1 for the i9305?

Hiya. I have an S3 i9305 4.4.2 on CM11. I recently got a preowned Xperia Z1 but it's too big and uncomfortable for me to hold so I'll sell it on. However, I love the UI on the phone. Are there any roms that emulate this, or certain features? Even the messaging app is clean and the font is really nice. I'm really smitten!

Not with the Z2, but the custom rom out for the G2Neo has been "jailbroken" to work with other devices.
check here for the post:

its not an "out of the box" solution but its continuing to get better all the time.

Thoughts on a new z3 rom for the xperia sp

Hello XDA,
I guess you know me from my CM11s Port ROM and I guess you also know that the system dump of z3 was out yesterday by the community. Let's get into the point shall we? So I'm thinking of creating a z3 ROM for kitkat and I want your suggestions and thoughts on what you might want in the ROM so that maybe I and even other devs can have a resource to look to and see what the community generally wants in a z3 ROM for the xperia sp. So let the discussion begin shall we?
Regards,
Furrydaus

Base it on MrSteve555s cm11 for LBL pls,I dont want to cry that another cool ROM is only for UBL,and has an old base.
I mean,the best choice would be to base the UBL variant on the latest official cm11 nightlies,and LBL on MrSteve555s Cm11 weekly releases.
EDIT
You can use RepeXpersiS if you need some files,that ROM is an excellent "port" of the Z2 4.4 for our SP.

Yes i think that mrsteve555 cm11 would be good because its locked bootloader and easy to install and use.. Other than that in my opinion if it is possible do something in the rom so that all of sony apps work in the rom for example get a sony app from play store and simply install..

Anybody can tell me that how samsung developer has ported full s5 rom to samsung s3
And on xperia no such port is been seen even not the port of xperia z to other xperia devices really miss that on xperia....
Is the development is slow on xperia or other technical issues?
Please answer it is really annoying to see s3 running all the features of new falgship and our xperia sp even having good hardware didn't seem to get thos features from his big bros..... ??????

I think that SAMSUNG gave sources which allowed them to port the s5 4.4.

Then what is system dump, is it a different thing?

Hm.Not sure how to put this right.
If someone gives you a star shaped piece,you cant fit it in a square hole.
Without the sources available for our devices,we cant link everything to a state where the ROM is usable,or even bootable.There are guides to port manufacturer ROMs,so feel free to try it yourself.
I only miss bravia engine and the illumination LED bar on the RepeXpersiS,but when i return to eXistenZ,there is the ugly,old JB lockscreen which destroys the perfect z3 look you get on the RepeXpersiS.

I am not into developing either.I wanted to try that guide myself,but one would ahve to download over 500 mb of thrash over a 500kb/s internet,just to see if his project that already has low probabilities will work out.I wil lrather wait for the ROMs.You do have z3 apps ported.So install them.There are z3 app ports for 4.3,and everything is amazing,but my spine jumps out when i use my phone and feel like i have the z3,and then see the old lockscreen that cant be replaced.Xperia Lockscreen isnt fully compatible with 4.3 either,will try to use expanded desktop on it...

I think s3 is comparable to Z because it was flagship

But from price and specs point of view it is somewhat similar to sp and sp is better performer than s3....

I completely agree with @Marionette
I think everything on Existenz will be perfect as long as we could use new ported apps and features on it and it's not important if it's android 4.3 or 4.4
and the only big need now is a perfect systemui compatible with new z3 home and a z2 lockscreen port
So if anyone could use new sony ports on the latest xperia sp stock rom I think it would be better because that way we could also have dialer and contacts and themes and many many more that still arent ported on cm11
