Pure KitKat?

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?

[Q] G900f aosp with some TW features (possible)?

Hey guys..
I would like to ask you about an aosp rom with samsung futures.. cause i hate touchwiz.. the settings.. the statusbar and everything.. I have been searching for a long time but could not find anything about such roms.
So my question is: Is it possible to take a rom like CM 12 and add featuers like the power saving mode of TW or a fingerprintscanner support for that rom... Would be great to hear about a rom like that
Greetings.

No. Closed source makes it difficult. Personally I find touchwiz sufficient and can't wait for lollipop.

But couldn't anyone take the priv apps and port then for cm and add a setting for the priv apps then or something ?
And lollipop will be great... but much will be white.. they take a amoled display and then they do everything in white ?! Thats dumb...

And the entire set of framework code that will go with it
There's a reason no one has done it in the years that aosp and touchwiz custom ROMs have been around
Mods generally are written from scratch in aosp ROMs

If it were that simple I would do it myself, your only hope is a google play edition but I reckon even if we get one it won't have a fingerprint sensor. And I don't really believe the whole black is better battery thing. I mean sure pixels off is but a lot of the time we actually get pixels showing a dark shade rather than off. You would have to spend a lot of time in settings or sms to care is what I'm saying. Plus if anything like my nexus 7 lollipop will improve battery and counteract this. But samsung may screw it up, pray that they don't cos kitkat got it right and made touchwiz an artistic and useful interface. White is used because its more pleasing to the eye than that bluey grey thing they got going on

Just sad... but thanks for your answers..
If there would only be a fingerprint scanner support i would even be happy.. but sad if its not poosible/too hard

You could try Alliance ROM with AOSP theme

Ideias for Blitz ROM by JynAlek(GT-i8190 ONLY)

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 ?

touchwiz home,settings style and other stuffs (u.power.saving) from galaxy e5 or a3

I do not think much about visual Lollipop, I think of a visual fit for the ROM, giving more personality to it

Power saver mode galaxy S5 is impossible I think, but we have this application that does the same and is more efficient

I do not think about changing it in the first versions, I like the TouchWiz UI, but the combination of colors that are horrible green and black is strange

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. .

[Q] Any one can help me make this App multi dpi?

First off, thanks for anyone who would give help and do it for my urgent need.
Second, I tried to do it with my self but failed due to my poor programming skills.
Here are two apks SecContacts_OSup.apk & SecPhone.apk for the note 3 N9005 KK.
They're NOT stock, but themed and have different layouts. They're working on my device but the dpi is not set correctly.
I need them to support multi dpi to fit correctly on my 400dpi stock rom
That's it all.
Thanks a lot in advance for anyone.
Edit :
Those are themed stock TouchWiz apps for the Phone and Contact to be like the ones in the AOSP based roms.
After testing it, especially the dialer and in-call interface, I experienced a faster and smoother performance than in the stock original apps interface, not to mention how more beautiful are them now.

As per the screens, it all works well and the apps functions get along very well with the new layout also.

Advice should it Update to pie? I have read no many good comments ☹

Hi ? everybody i have the S8 no even 2 months with this gorgeous device i wanna ask about your Pie experience Did you like it? Performance ? Do you like the new looks? Do the themes applies well on pie? Do you prefer pie or samsung experience ?
I see soo much bad comments on the aspect of this new version of software im doubting to upgrade

I strongly recommend you to upgrade to pie. Try and see the difference.

I love One UI. Im not a complainer with technology so maybe im not the person to ask, if it works well im happy i have real things to do than complain. But for me personally no issues and love the icons and the ui layout. Also full screen with no nav keys is nice to have. Im stll on ZSAI beta 3 i havent even gone to stable and it all works fine. Been using Pie since first beta... performance is good. however i dont play games but its fine for me to call, email, sms, and use insta, camera and browser. If thats your use then no problem its worth doing

yes you should, everything is working fine and there are a couple of nice new features

those of you that have One UI already on their S8 installed - can you check and see whether the "HIGH CONTRAST THEME" from the Samsung Theme store is still compatible with PIE?!
I am just holding off my the One UI b/c I am want to be sure that that theme works b/c I love it so much...I don't want to lose compatibility...THX
