I was looking into some g note videos and actualy liked how the software worked but didnt like how big it is.
So i thought if its possible to port it over and who can help?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
You mean, port the Galaxy Note touchwiz over to the Epic Touch? To my knowledge, it hasn't been done. I can only see a couple of features that its build has that the ET4G doesn't, mainly the stylus notes feature. It's got a little different method to take a screenshot than we do (however, I like ours better). Can you clarify what you'd like to see from the note in the ET4G?
well what i much is the ability to use a stylus for drawing and writing.
thats if were able to use a stylus
.....its the same thing
you will never be able to use that kind of stylus on the et4g... it has a wacom sensor for it built in. aka like fm radio. we dont have the tech in the device to do it.
Well that sucks but thanks anyways

Is this a joke?
you want someone to port a touchwiz rom to a device that already runs touchwiz? wtf am i reading?
I mean don't get me wrong some of the features it has would be nice even though we could never use the stylus. BUT since we have ICS now, until the Galaxy Note gets the ICS update, I don't see any of it's features being ported.
It has nothing we don't have. Besides a different lockscreen, new messages app, a few icon changes ,n of course pen memo which would be useless for us who don't have a stylist.. probly tweaked system settings for tw 4.0;

Your first and second sentences contradict each other...
As it was stated just before me, a lot of Devs are jumping on the ICS bandwagon. Although I love some of the tricks you can do with that S Pen, without a stylus its hard to imagine what functionality that would add to a phone that already does everything. I understand where you're coming from OP, but you might have to just do like me and get the Galaxy Journal when it launches soon.

Does the "Long-Press Home" feature not work in your Rom?

*Also, it brings up the full task manager shortcut as well, in addition to all your recents...
I use "long-press home" second to only the search button, probably.

Ok, I guess I'm dense: I've used ICS for a bit on this device with a couple of the international betas. I've also used the ICS launcher from TeamSyndicate or whatever...
Please lmk what is so groundbreaking and so different in the way ICS handles taskswitching..
If I remember correctly (and I easily might NOT be remembering this right), all ICS does is present your recent apps in a nicer, larger, vertical list after pressing the button for it once instead of the way Gingerbread handles it (presenting them in a grid after long-pressing home).
If there's more to it, please let me know.
If there's not, then you basically started a thread that's complaining about the fact that you have to long-press a button right now, and that you really can't wait until you only have to simply press a button, because that would make your life so much easier.
Did I miss something?

Yup pretty much. Also there arr settting. In launchers that can enable. Up to 16apps or something to be listed in that menu. Same thing, just a few more appz and it looks slightly different. How ever ICS does ring lots of new things in a ALL IN ONE download that plays nicelu with each other. Before you would have to flash several things and spe. D some serious time changing settings to get what ICS already offers which in its self is awesome. Especially for people who have a line and cant always takr the time to flash tons of things and config the more mods everytime a rom requires you to wipe data which gets old really damn quick in my book. Maybe im just getting older or i have owned android too long but i dont like re setting my phone back up. I didnt use to mind it and now i dread it. Atleast even when switxhing between different roms on samsung for the most part you never need to wipe data. In that respect compared to HTC i find Samsung much better and that makes the device worth it right there. With HTC you would loose everything all the time when flashing new roms or even updates. Not to mention you would loose things like your WiMax key's and have to get a nee device just to use Sprints ****ty 4g agan.... Hahaa ok ok its not that funny, more sad about HTC but laughing is how i cope with terrible old memoryz

Agreed. Im fine with the jellybean lockscreen.
Galaxy S3 dandelion LWP in the Play Store works pretty nice and has the ripple touch effect.
There's also an app from the same developer called Water Drop LWP that let's you use your own pictures with the ripple effect.
I liked the whole idea back on the final releases of GB/Cyano where you are able to tap on any part of the screen and choose the options. JB Lockscreen is fine but I dont like it to be tied down to the bottom area only, maybe the S3 lockscreen appeals to me only because you can unlock from any portion of the screen, and that sexy water ripple perhaps One thing is for sure, you don't need no damned Quad core to get that. But what I would love, would be that sexy MyWater.apk from Asus Transformer. That LWP was the BOMB! But doesn't work on JB, sad.

We won't have too many ROM options, besides AOSP and TouchWiz, until CM10 is officially released. It's out for the international version, but only time will tell how long it takes to reach our version of the device.
If you want to take a giant risk, go ahead and flash ParanoidAndroid for the international version, but it'll probably hard-brick your device.

Maybe so, but I've heard stories of people hard-bricking their devices by flashing kernels made for different devices.
If anyone really wants this type of ROM, go to TMO GN2 forums and look at DaGR8s ROM. Or join #saurom on freenode. I asked if he could bring it over but he would rather have me maintain it but I know zero when it comes to modifying stock roms, smali, etc lol.

No offense, but I don't understand what you're asking. I say this because Android 4 is the same on phones and tablets. I have ASUS Transformer Infinity (TF700T) and this phone, and both are running Android 4.1. The difference are more device specific about screen size and particular hardware.
The mods I've seen are more about squeezing more functionality out the device, such a WiFi tether and mutli-app. They don't bring a more tablet experience than what the device already is in my use thus far.

I like the idea of picking some apps to use in Tablet form. NFL Game Pass has a good tablet app; but I believe it's designed for 10" tablets, not the small ones such as Nexus 7. I like Chrome's interface on the tablet over the phone as well.
I have the ASUS Transformer Inifinity. Needless, some apps are interesting with their user interface.
Unfortunately, most apps on Android are still designed for the phone interface. As Android tablet get more popular, we'll see design interface incorporate the larger screens.
At the moment, I'm just happy to have a larger screen so I can see without having to zoom everything.

Isn't the international version significantly different from ours? As in a quad-core CPU? It's possible that we may not even get the premium suite just based on the hardware differences? So far, I think the international version S3 shares more in common with the Galaxy Note 2.

This phone is getting no updates in the States it had a good run but the gs4 is around the corner. Depends on what that phone specs are I might get a note2 since the price will drop unless there's something mind blowing with the new gs4. I love this phone but it's becoming old as far as technology and it's not the flagship phone anymore for sprint so they are in no rush to send a update if any.

I'll be surprised if the carriers release 4.2.1 in the states. Hopefully, Samsung still goes ahead and develops it for the US phones and we can get some custom ROMs built once it leaks.
At this point, I highly doubt we'll get an official 4.2 OTA update. I would've flashed a AOSP ROM if i didn't end up losing all the features that makes it different from other phones.
we've gotten every other update so why not 4.2, Samsung should get more credit when it comes to updating its phones.

I do however feel ya on being able to view notifications in full screen apps, I miss that shiz.... but not enough to keep me away from the smoothness of Liquid Smooth lol.

I kinda agree that smart stay is kinda gimmicky. Half the time it doesn't work even when im in a well lit area. And if Direct Call is in the ROM i may check it out. How's the battery life though?
bought both and not sure which I like the best...I so wish I could combine the best of each phone and make the perfect one.

S4 I feel like when it comes to rom support it will do better same goes with android updates and the phone is damn sexy lol
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
The only advantage I find in the s4 is dev support but so far I'm okay with LG software.
I really can't get past how small the s4 is..I've been spoiled by my Note 1 for so long anything smaller isn't an option for me.

Agreed! I've also felt like the S4 is a bit flimsy by comparison. When I hold my G Pro it feels solid and sturdy. When I hold my girlfriend's S4 it just feels light and cheap. Having all kinds of Dev and ROM support would be nice, but the LG Software isn't as bad as TW and we've got thecubed hard at work cracking the bootloader open.
Until Samsung steps up their build quality I'll be sticking with other manufacturers.

Same thing here. I bought the St and found the screen to be too small. This phone is perfect on the stock ROM.

I seriously can't stand Touchwiz. For the first time in a long time the manufacturer UI on a phone doesn't really bother me. Rock on LG!
Seriously the only gripe I have is that the contacts app doesn't let me manually join contacts.

tap the contact, tap the menu button, tap join, tap the contact you wish to join.
Wow... I feel stupid.... I can't believe I missed that!
Thank you! I really appreciate the help!

When I do that it gives me a listed of suggested contacts to join. Its nice but not as robust as any other phone I've used. Basically if the name doesn't match between the different contacts it won't suggest joining them, and it doesn't give you an option to join manually. For example my mother. I have her contact listed as mom, but her Facebook profile is by her real name. It doesn't list her in suggested for this reason, so I can't join the two contacts.
I really appreciate the help

Well I've decided to keep all the phones( note 2, LG Optimus gpro, and the s4. I said I wasn't going to be that guy spending so much money on phones but it just kinda happened. Lol and now I can't make up my mind...damn you cell phone manufactures.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda premium
I had the S4 and I sold it and bought the G Pro and love the G pro Better because the more customization and that cool led notification around the home button I rooted, but I will probably never put a custom rom on it:good:
You can't because there's nothing available. I have both phones and I gotta say that I hate not being able to install custom roms. Also when it comes to updates, LG sucks. It took over a year for LG to release ICS for Thrill. Even then, the ROM still sucks and still outdated. It's slow as hell. The OGP has somewhat up to date ROM now, but I'm afraid that it'll be stuck at 4.1.2 forever while the S4 is enjoying the unannounced 4.3.
Just because it's leaked doesn't mean it'll get 4.3 anytime soon. As for this phone, better than the rest in my opinion. Gs4 is good but I couldn't stand the lag and even though had custom Rom on it I couldn't help but be annoyed by the samoled screen, especially after owning the nexus 4. Regardless of when we will get custom roms, this phone is still badass the way it is. Stock Rom updates, who needs em? Majority of us are going to install custom anyways and those we don't want to do custom just root.
This phone is the ****!

If TouchWiz is annoying and you want a solution without a root check Nova launcher out.

Touchwiz encompasses more than just the launcher. It's the theme of the settings, SMS, browser... the default icons. I just don't care for it. It feels web 1.0 on a web 2.0 world

WTF are you talking about? S4 is already running 4.3 Google Edition. If you mean OGP won't get it anytime soon then I can totally understand.
