Hey guys and girls
I understand that custom launchers still allow the s-pen functions to operate.
However, will a custom rom say a cm10.1 based rom allow this as well as allow the syncing between the note and the smart watch?
If not, how could I over come this, I want a cm10.1 which allows me to use all the s=pen functions and smart watch functions properly..
Appreciate any help.
Have you ever read what Cm is all about??
You will loose all TW functions and Smartwatch will notbwork properley.

xposed framework + theme chooser OR custom launcher + theme...

Hey mate, thanks for the answer, not entirely sure what xposed framework is... Theme chooser either.
I am using a cm10.1 based ROM and I can choose the theme on that but not on my previous ROM which was touchwiz based?

xposed module is something that only requires root to work and give u the ability to make a LOT of changes on your system, one of them is theme chooser that lets u choose a theme and apply it into your system. if you want touchwiz features + cm "kind of look", give it a try
I don't know when did the rumor started, but with cyanogenmod you can use the spen, however, you cannot use multiwindows, pen-window and all the custom features of touchwiz. But you do have pressure sensitivity in apps that support it (like sketchbook pro, paryrus, lecturenotes..), and if you buy gmd spen control you can use custom gestures in all the apps, like installing a floating memo and launching it with the pen button pressed and doing a double tap ( in an old paranoid android i used in the n7000 gestures where baked in the rom itself).
Unfortunately the smartwatch will not work unless samsung updates the thing to pair with all android phones, because right now it needs very recent versions of touchwiz.
Im so sorry about my english.:silly:

Thank you all, I think my best way of going about things is to get a good stock based ROM and use that xposed module to choose my custom theme at the same time using my spen and touchwiz features. Is this correct??:victory:

Which touchwiz features are you trying to keep exactly? Most, if not all, can be replicated on an AOSP rom.
More so the s-pen features. I am running aosp ROM on my s3 ATM fine... But obviously with the note I would be looking at using s-pen perhaps even the watch.. I don't think I can do that with aosp can I ?

GMD gesture control will allow for many many additional Stylus gestures and commands. Also, an app called ink over apps is a good replacement to the screen write.

Hi, I'd love to be able to use Halo as it is intended, also in Touchwiz. This is now possible for most devides, thanks to a brilliant module (XFloatingHalo) for Xposed. Except for Touchwiz, where there is some kind of incompatibility, seems like TouchWiz is interfering with the halo flag, thus backgroud apps are detected as halo apps, bringing them to the front when clicking on them, thus hiding the windowed halo apps
Is there no way around it, to make Halo Touchwiz compatible? Why were the same bits as in Touchwiz chosen, why not other ones?
I have a Note 2, and use the S pen and related features a lot , like the multi window feature , so it would be Great to make them compatible .

PA is developed based on AOSP source code. If you flash a PA ROM there will be no touchwiz conflicts.
If you are using Xposed to replicate halo then the issue lies with the Xposed implementation and not PA

Ok, you're probably right, just thought they would like to maintain compatibility with the original halo and all the launchers for it, like floating notifications , but there's probably a way of doing that.. Hopefully
The pa version of halo is the original halo. The xposed module uses pa source code and packages it into a mod by itself.
Not to seem mad or anything. It is just a little annoying when the PA team does not get credit for the great things they have done for this community.

But how would someone else make money off donations if everyone knew where it actually came from?
/s
Figure this...
I rooted my Note3 and happily installed CyanogenMod11 nightly (KK4.4.2). All fine and very happy, but I miss the S Pen features and apps.
How would it be possible to get S Pen features back, but remain on CM11?

You cannot get all the features back however you can try
GMD SPen control, as it has some SPen functions, used it myself without issue.
for pie control and more i use LMT.
great app ! would be cool if you could trigger the pie with the s pen button.

Hmmm... GMD looks promising. Thanks alot. But... does your answer also mean I can forget about re-flashing S-Pen API separately somehow, and re-flashing the original S-Pen apps? Is that a totally stupid idea?
I know some of you readers will think "well, why did you root and flash another rom from the begining, if you liked it before?". Well it was originally full of bloat - we all know that - and the only thing worthy was the S-Pen features and the pen itself.
Anyone tried?
Thanks again.

Yeah you can't flash SPen stuff due to it being dependent on the TouchWiz framework.

I like the menu pop up when you click the pen, to take screen shots and take a quick note. Honestly I rely on them daily since I use my phone for work also, I probably wont flash due to this.
Afternoon all,
Is there a pure KitKat Rom for Note 3? Best one recommended?
Is there a pure ROM with any of the Samsung features included? Because I still use SPen etc but not everything.
Finally I have a S5 theme on my Note 3 at the moment ( only new icons ) is there a way to use the icons on all the UI not just the home screens and app drawer?
Thank you all for help
Well, there is always the AOSP side of the story if you want a pure kitkat like experience. You will however, lose all spen functionality. And as well, you will be knoxed. Flashing roms requires root etc (unless you already are rooted)
As for the app icons, maybe there are some leaked s5 apps you can install for the look and feel of that?

As agreed I decided to open this topic to discuss new ideas for a custom ROM based on Stock 4.1.2, as none of the CyanogenMod can please many users, we will discuss ideas and features for the ROM, I will put my ideas here on the tread later.
My goal is make a fast and slim stock custom rom, with good features for everyone use most of her S3 mini, then everyone can give ideias to implement on this ROM
Ok idea 1.add Fly-On mod or something similar.
2.i think it should have xposed framework installed from the beginning. .as an option of course.
3. Quick settings like when you swipe the statusbar with two fingers ?

Just give us a build test
New thread but nothing to test. Will you give us any release date or we will be waiting forever ? Give us something .
+1
Well, since make a good visual is hard and i terrible themer, i will upload with s5 theme and some things i made, its unfinished but its time for a release
Yeah! We need to test
What i made this days:
Changed lots os apks from Sammy(all laggy and heavy), aosp/cm apps(messenger from PAC 4.1,aosp browser fully working, desk clock)
Heavy cleaned up on all ROM(lib,APP,framework, and all others folders)
Add my personal engine for speed and battery saver
Add some things from stamina mode of xperia devices(unfinished)
Tweaked CSC folder, build.prop
Ported DSP manager from CyanogenMod 10.1
And more some little things
Sounds good is there a four way reboot that will work with xposed framework?

4 way reboot menu was "broken" with the theme S5, but using the gravity box with the reboot menu option everything is perfect, then the ROM will not get trouble at the end: D
Sounds great. Godd job
Ok give us a tester then jyn.
Btw:how about putting the pie control in there (forgot the name) like the Tokorom it's a great bit of kit and if you set it up it would be good for the first time user to get to the right apps and options.
LMT Launcher. .
I used to multi-task by opening two apps at the same time by splitting the screen using the stock rom - TW's multi-window feature. I missed it when I was trying custom roms. Just wondering if we have other options or alternative. Thanks a lot.

Nop.
You can try YouTube popup or other apps that have mods for it. Just another gimmick feature for cm lovers as most of us on it do not care about these gimmicks. And cm is built from aosp and doesn't include anything related to tw framework.
yes there's one!

there are few Xposed modules like XMultiWindow, XFloating Window which I used when I was in CM11.
But those weren't 100% perfect though. give them a try if those modules are compatible in Lollipop
Sorry, but I did a bit of thread cleaning. Please just try and answer the question at hand please. No reason to take pot shots at other users!
Thanks!
