Which Roms feature the Samsung Camera App? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

I don't want to lose access to the Samsung Stock Camera app. The HDR feature is incredibly good. Which roms actually include it, or is it easy enough to put back in if a rom doesn't.
Thanks

Any touchwiz based ROM will have it. I don't know if it can be implemented on any AOSP ROM's since some TW apps only work on TW framework.

I'm confused which roms are touchwiz based, does JFLTE mean that?

No, JFLTE is just a device/variant name of the S4. Touchwiz is the software running on the device. Usually just look at the rom title and it will include "TW" or "Android 4.xw/TW". Also if you read the features of the rom it will usally say based on Samsung Touchwiz or whatnot.
The other software versions are: AOSP, CM, GE/Google Edition. (Which would mean they are not Touchwiz roms)

[Q] Stupid Question.

I have a stupid question. I have tried to search but apparently I am not using the right keywords. I barely post, and when I do it's only when I can not actually find the answer myself. So hopefully you can bare with me and keep the flaming to a minimum.
I have been looking for a custom rom. There are a few that I have wanted to check out, however I actually do like and use the samsung camera features like drama shot, etc.
Is there a cm or aosp based rom that someone could recommend that offers those camera features? Or basically am I stuck just debloating my stock rom if I want to keep them? Not that I find too much actually wrong with the stock rom, I was just looking to play around and try out some of the different projects out there.
Thanks for the help guys in advance. I hope I was clear enough in what I am looking for.

You have to flash a TW based rom.

Are you saying there is a touchwiz based (debloated) rom that has the AOSP overlay and features. I've been using slim rom (love it) but was thinking. Couldnt you theoretically have a TW based ROM and have the AOSP ontop of it. I love the look of AOSP way more than touch wiz.

Your best bet is to go with a debloated Touchwiz-based ROM based on the much more up to date International firmware. Goldeneye 4.0 is the way to go for me.
You can even install MODs like the xposed framework/nolimit that all you to really customize the look of your phone.

Most custom roms are TW based except Cyanogenmod and AOKP/AOSP roms, look in the Android Development or Original Android Development threads for the custom roms.

[Q] What custom ROM to keep Samsung features?

I'd like to know if there are any ROMs that keep most Samsung features like S-Pen functionalities and multiwindow?
Looks like X-Note does that. Not sure. Omega? CM?

Omega http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470441
Ask in the question section next time.
Literally anything that's based on stock firmware (Touchwiz).

Samsung features and its bloatware, can only be found at Touchwiz based ROM, as this ROM is from Samsung itself.
CM & AOSP or AOKP is not TW-ROM, therefore, if you need those samsung features & bloatwares, you will not see them on these 3 types of ROM by default.
Just go into development forum of Note 3 of your device, and find any rom which TW base, you should be fine.
cheers.

[Q] Roms port

Why isn't it possible to port a rom from galaxy s5 to the nexus 4 or the g3 rom or things like that? All the roms are awesome but they are still the same look and everything only with extra options and features.. i'll be love to try something different if it is possible and if there is such ported rom of touchwiz or something like that can someone please share it with me?
It is possible, it'd just take a long time and no dev who knows how to do so has done those specific roms.
The hardware in the phones are different which means different drivers, bootloaders, system images, recoveries, etc.

So it is possible but it just hard?
It is hard to port Samsung's Touchwiz to other phones because Touchwiz requires a Samsung kernel and a bug-free kernel may not be possible. Same goes for the lg ROM.

So we can use the ported launcher from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2773621
Sometimes, you can get your ROM to visually resemble Touchwiz by using custom launcher such as Nov and applying Nova-compatible themes. Theming is good but not always a perfect replica of the original interface.

So there's no hope?
I doubt it. The developer would also need source code, preferably the original phone, and nexus 4.
Just install CyanogenMod 11 on your device and apply this theme:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz&hl=en
And this launcher:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epic.launcher.tw&hl=en
Also you can look for some touchwiz or LG apps here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335530
And there is themes for LG phones for CyanogenMod too.

Looking for a rom that still has S-Pen functionality but on stock Android?

Hey,
been a while since I been here(from back in the days of my Galaxy Nexus). I just picked up a Note 4. I like it. I somewhat dislike the TouchWiz and hate how out of box it's using 1.8-2GB of ram on start up(assuming because of TouchWiz).
Is there any roms out there that run practically stock Android(pref. 5.0 Lollipop?) but still have the S-Pen suite enabled, including the part when I pull my S-Pen out it notices it and gives me that "Air command" menu.
One last plus would be something that gives me the ability to still use fast charge 2.0.
I looked up a couple of roms but unless I missed something they don't offer these features.
Any help? I have the Canadian N910W8 model and use it on Band 4 AWS/UMTS(3G) and LTE on various freq's so the radio would(should, preferably stay in-tacked)
Thanks!
I don't think this belongs in this section man, maybe ask it in the Q and A. It will probably get moved.
On answering your question, at this stage there is no stock aosp rom that supports spen functions. It's a little bit of a dream for most users. Although I hear that lollipop will be faster than stock, that's what I've read.

That's wrong. There is S-Pen functionality in cm12 at this moment. All you have to do is download and install one or two apps from Play Store. This apps are even free.
It is CM S-Pen en Note Buddy. I have installed them myself and S-Pen does work.
Found this the other day https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.steadfastinnovation.android.spenlauncher&hl=en
Im running cm12 with the following
s pen launcher
cm s pen add on
note buddy
papyrus
this gives me basic s pen functions but is more than adequate for my needs

You are not entirely right either. There are free versions of this apps, but for full functionality you have to pay, not that there is anything wrong with it, just stating the fact. Also you have some s-pen functionality, but not all of it, and in my opinion CM12 s-pen functionality is somewhat less fluent and intuitive then TW one. Regardless, I still prefer CM than TW
I would also like to know how is this thread relevant to Development section

Be careful throwing around the word 'wrong'. I did say as far as I know, just trying to help someone out. There is apps you can use with cm or some other aosp roms, but it's nothing like the spen features you get from within TW. Not that I'm a big fan of it myself, I have quite a few gripes myself, *cough* performance... But for the multi window and spen features, presently if you use them all, TW is it for now.

I have the same phone as you. So far LiquidSmooth and the Unofficial CM-12.0 are the only Lollipop builds that can even use the S-Pen (Unless you know of others). You won't get the TW features of course. I'm very slowly looking into building a AOSP Lollipop rom that is custom built for our N910W8 devices. I've never built my own before so it is a lot of learning.

It *should* be doing that. Unused RAM is wasted RAM. It's caching stuff for speed so that the next time it needs to load up something, it can check if it still is in RAM already. It's not a TouchWiz thing.

You can still install it on other versions of the Note 4. Just expect some things not to work. If your running the CAN version of the Note 4 I don't recommend using LS atm due to very poor battery life on this model.

Not a problem!
Has anyone tried converting all the original s-pen apps to user apps with titanium backup, and then doing an app and data backup of them from the stock ROM, installing CM12, and then try to install them?
I'd try it myself, but I'm asking on behalf of a mate, not for myself. I think there's a possibility that it might work. It's gotta be worth a try..
I've got CM12 on my S4, and it's awesome.
Now the omega touchwiz rom are released:
imo the best rom and all features would work like in stock.
try i..maybe what you seeking?
