Hey there. I recently upgraded from stock 2.3.6 to cyanogenmod 10.1 android 4.2.2 on my Galaxy S Plus and it is quite the difference. I really like it so far but because it is such a big change, i have some random questions about it.
1. In 2.3.6 you could re-organize apps in the drawer as you wanted by tapping menu -> edit. How can you do this in 4.2.2 ? (i know this depends on the launcher, i only tired nova launcher and cm default trebuchet launcher). - (the 4.2.2 default launcher does this ?) (what is the best launcher for 4.2.2?)
2. in 2.3.6 by tapping the menu button at homescreen it displays add widget , shortcuts wallpapers etc. How can you do this in 4.2.2 ? (the only way to add widgets is by going into app drawer -> widgets ?)
3. Where is the repeat button in the Apollo Music Player ? (or should i change to something else?)
3. How can i not install / remove default apps that comes with the rom? (like the default browser because i switched to chrome)
4. If i understand correctly cyanogenmod is based on ASOP and is pure android. What about the android 4.2.2 that comes with galaxy s4 or s3 ? Could we have that on our Galaxy S Plus ?
I would like to keep it as clean as possible without installing tons of apps to modify the rom. Thanks
to 1. i don`t know if it is possible...
to 2. this i the "new" way add widgets to teh homescreen...the possibility from 2.3.6 comes maybe back with Android 4.4
to 3. on my CM10.2 i haven`t find any possibility...
to 3. i remove apps with a file-manager with mounting the root system as writeable and go to system/app then remove or move it to sdcard ...that`s all ...
to 4. CM 10.1 is Android 4.2.2 and you`re right it is based on AOSP ... but the difference between the Version of Samsung are more not needful apps and the other UI ...why do you want the version of S3 or S4 ...the based android version is 4.2.2 in both ways i9000, i9001 or s3 or s4 ...
Hope i can help you with some questions ...:good:

I flashed the CyanogenMod 10.1 by ADC-Team - Release 8 and the K^Kernel 3.4.x OC/EXUV 390MB with my wife's i9001,it's very smooth、stable and a good battery,That I installed apex launcher because of my habit
And about you questions,there's no affect for me that you will be able to adapt the ROM after a period of time

1. Apex launcher rocks, try it...
3b. Try app from Play Store called SD Maid to remove apps. It is very powerful tool and can do a lot, I use pro version but I think the free one can do pretty much all as well.
1) This is launcher specific
2) This is also launcher specific, both MiHome and Go Launcher have similar implementations of the way it is done on stock, as well as ADW
3a.) In Apollo, near the bottom, there should be a symbol that has two arrows forming a loop
3b.) As tetakpatak said
4.) S3/S4's 4.2.2 has modifications and additions to it as well as a custom framework of the system. You can have a theme as well as however many ported apps there are, but a direct port of either of these requires a hell of a lot of reverse engineering as well as some compromises
And freakymod- personal preference. Nothing wrong with wanting Touchwiz.

Hii All..
I have S3 9305 running official 4.4.4 kitkat firmware..
my S3 is rooted.. I saw some Note4 ports for s4 nd S5 running kitkaton XDA forum..
some of them like messaging, accu weather widgets, file manager, Snote, new touch wiz launcher. flipboard breifing etc run succesfully on GT-I9305 kitkat also..
but applications like settings menu, System Ui etc hv some force close issues nd some resolution problems as well..
I really liked those white note 4 settings menu nd stuff.. so I downloaded Galaxy A5 firmware and extracted it to get official A5 apks.. A5 is also based on 4.4.4 kitkat.. but those apks didnot work on I9305 kitkat 4.4.4
can anyone help with these apks of A5 working on S3 LTE 4.4.4 ??
you cant just take apps from one device, they need to be modified and you need to do a lot of debugging,, simple logcats while the app is fc is a way of finding out what the problem is. most apps also rely on lib files too

So hello guys welcome to the guide to how install google pixel launcher working and tested bug free.
So lets get started,
Required:
1. Any Android 5.0 + device
2. Working internet
3. Rooted ot Non rooted [ works with both device]
So first let us understand what is a pixel launcher. Pixel launcher is a launcher which is used in google pixel devices. Running on android nougat. So if you ever see it its too amazing launcher ever. I have also tested and its bug free. In earlier verison it was only working with android marshmallow device. But now you can use it on android lollipop cheers to google for bringing happiness to lollipop device users. So you can easily enjoy pixel style to your device.
So this process doesn't require root so non root users can use it without worrying about warranty loss or any damage to your device proceed to the installation guide.
So its not a different app normally install it as you do with other app installing but keep unown source ok in your device. Also make sure that install wallpaper app before because if you dont you will get error pixel launcher stopped when you try to change the wallpaper that beacuse wallpaper app is the theme manger of pixel launcher. So if it not installed app will crash while changing wallpaper. Also make sure download latest version from the link. But dont download this version of google pixel launcher named as :
Pixel Launcher O-3743572 (READ NOTES) this version of app is used in android o preview. So this app will not work on lollipop devices so try older than this app.

2. Wallpaper app by Google:

Don't forget to hit thanks if you like this. Thank you.
Pixel icon issue.
But remember all this will make your device look like pixel not everything beacuse you app icons remains the same. So if you want to change them same as pixel you need android 7.1 device it will not work on lollipop or marshmallow device so of you have nougat device then just download this and install it as normal apk. You are done this app is a offical app not a clone or dummy or my own app so if you have any problem you can ask me i will reply it ASAP. Thankyou

Hello,
could anyone link me to the default factory APK to reinstall the Huawei Themes app please?
It was not working, so while putting my fingers everywhere i deleted it by mistake...
thanks!
PS: I am well talking about the default "bloatware" Themes installed by Huawei. This app is required to change themes. I suppose there is no APK, i could find one for the Android 8 EMUI 8, but not for the version im running. So if anyone could share a folder or else with some instructions for me to reinstall it, would be cool!
Hello !
I recently upgraded my phone to the RR os on oreo 8.1 and i want to go back to the stock gallery app, but i can't find it ?
Do you know how i can either install it if it's still on the phone, or where i can find it ?
thanks in advance
I'm not sure if what i will tell you actually works, because i haven't tried it, but if you look at apkmirror there are lots of apks like the stock camera app the stock gallery app and the stock settings app.
