Plausibility of a TouchWiz port? - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Would it be plausible to port TouchWiz from the SD820 GS7 to the HTC 10? I couldn't see any reason why this wouldn't work using a system pull from the 820 S7, and methods similar to how people have ported MIUI and Flyme.

My first thought? ...Why? It's like putting a '95 Civic motor in a 2016 Audi.
I have both phones, I'd want to get as far from TW as possible.

Because i want to.... I asked if it was plausible, not if it'd get used.

Well, if that's the case, and considering TW is generally hated, I'm going to do the old fashioned XDA tradition of encouraging you to poke around the files and try to port it.

Could buy an S7 too. Or any number of the new galaxies that get released once a month. Chances are those already have TW ported.

You won't be able to get the full os. Too many requirements for closed sourced files made just for that device. Best you can hope for is some of the apks. Like launcher, sms, maybe dialer (not the In Call Dialer) and contacts. Those should be be compatible with a few things removed.

Looking for a live wallpaper with raindrops on it.

Basically, I'd like a wallpaper that just has plain raindrops fall on it (into the screen). Something like this image:

Those were pulled from the new dual core lg phone, and as an avid reader of androidcentral i happened to remember. There's one on there that is exactly what you're looking for...i think. Read it up and give it a try.
EDIT: i gave it a try, and idk if its what you want. It was a little boring for me. But hey! You might like it.

Argh, this is almost perfect! The only thing it lacks is the ability to set the background and control the frequency of the drops.
That's gay..they force you to register to see download link. Can someone post it?

Funny...

People i don't understand you..Majority of you has decided to root your device and install new softwer on it..everything works fine for some time and than problems for most of you..my question is,why are you doing that?most things are installed for a reason..thats the same thing like buying a familly car and than making sport coupe from that same car..my opinion is,if you expect from your phone to bake cookies,make coffie,wash dishes buy the phone that does that..metaforic said..i see that every day someone starts the topic Bricked,What to do,Please help etc.. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS IF YOU DIDN'T MESSED WITH YOUR PHONE..

Person, i don't understand you, you buy a phone which has the capability to bake cookies,make coffie,wash dishes but is limited by the manufacturer and/or network, its like buying a sports car that has been limited to 30 mph, the first thing you should do to is is remove the limiter.

Nice MIUI themes?

I've browsed through the theme 'store' and haven't really found any appealing themes.
The stock MIUI theme is quite nice, but I fancy something different!
I was wondering what ones you guys use, if any?

Dude you need to stop asking what people like as they more than likely differ from your tastes.
In fact i think all "whats the best ROM/Theme" etc. should be banned as they just spam the board.
Example: I think Rihanna is the ugliest ***** ever to grace the planet and needs to phone home ASAP

Like i say it's very much a matter of personal preference.
If you cant find one you like..... make one it's not very hard.
Warning:****storm ahread together with ask ur mum jokes
Instead of nice, could state the most popular ones?

I see where you're coming from.
I agree that everyone has different taste, and using your example, I think Rihanna is one of the hottest women alive.
However I only wanted to get other peoples opinions on themes they may have used and liked.

Almost certainly not going to happen. Since we haven't seen a port of any previous HTC ROM, then this would be no exception.

any1 care to help me make the sense 4 work? I have no idea where to start but am willing to learn. I have the one that boots up but keeps looping. if any1 cares to help point me in the direction as to make it work like finish building it. pleas drop me a line and lets get started (no idea if it means anything) but all my drivers and bootloaders and fastboot is installed with adb. on pc
sorry for bringing this post up again, but i think this is better than opening a new thread.
what i wanna ask is that does something make it difficult to port a htc rom to this device, or something else?
i am certainly attracted by the htc one rom on first sight. it would be nice if i can have a taste of it on GNex without the need of changing a new one.

mostly coz: Nobody even bothers! JK
If you just read the other threads asking for HTC ports, you'd know that what makes it all the more difficult is HTC framework, which is proprietary.

Hand held Gimbal that works for S8+ and GoPro?

Looking for a Hand held Gimbal that I can use both my phone and GoPro on. The cheaper the better but I understand I don't have many options. Any Ideas?
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
You might want to explain what a gimbal is or why you need it and in what context you'll be using it. you mention gopro so potentially, it would be in a rugged environment or sports.
Just saying, if you want responses, clarify.
Yep, Also never heard of it...

fancy word for selfie stick
I use a ikan FLY-X3 PLUS, It works great as long as you don't have lots of wind hitting the phone. Its better with my S7 or GoPro.

Gimbals are definitely not just selfie sticks. They're for producing cinematic quality video and are quite effective when used correctly. I've got a DJI Osmo Mobile that i was using with my S7 but I havent had a chance to try out the S8+ on it yet. I'm going to guess that it'll be pushing the limits on the motors for it though.
Anyway... just set it up for the S8+... Looks like it'll work alright but no way your gonna get it to work inside a case and you've basically got to adjust the thing to the limits of the device. I'm sure the weight and size will put stress on the motors and use more battery than normal, but it does work.
Sorry for the sideways pic:

Saw this on YT, nice side-by-side comparison of 2 gimbals, plus he has OIS on and off with each one. That's where I found out what gimbals are (as far as smartphones are concerned).

Zhiyun smooth Q, cheaper than osmo and can function comparable to it.
