So I was thinking, we have MIUI which is more or less, a iOS clone.
Is there any ideas for a ROM based off of source that takes elements from WP7, I don't necessarily mean the live tiles, but something close, but the messaging, gallery, etc.
Bump?

You could probably get a copy of the wp7 firmware, and port it. Not sure what the file system is on that, but maybe it's similar?

Alright. Sooooooo it has been ported before. But...it has a different file system. After that, cwm recovery doesn't have access to system.

OK...I'm not a dev but I'm telling you that we never could port a wp7 run on android system. they're completely different. asking how to run wp7 on android system is similar with asking how to ride a boat on road. the best solution atm is only make a rom with a theme and UI looks like a wp7.
PS: MIUI is not an iOS clone. the interface is might similar but it definetely an android system.

That's true.You can't port WP7 to android.If nothing else than because of kernel.We have a Linux-based kernel and WP uses a different (probably closed-sourcel) one.So as we already told you your best chance is UI changes.I am a dev btw.

Hmm, just change your launcher to a WP7 styled launcher.
Do that with the dialer, email, music and message app too, it should then look like WP7

Just want to get a view of interest if this theme would be wanted by anyone. I loved it and built it right before the 3.5 craze.
Like stated in rader3bravos thread sense stuff cant be themed, but if your using an alt launcher it would work.
Please vote, and if you want reply with what rom you would like to see it on.

Meaning new png's from Sense 3.0. There are at least 50 +, png's that need to be resized. There's also entirely new png's I've never themed before. It's going to take some time to get it fully themed.

Yeah, I don't understand why people want to theme their droids with the iOS UI. It's a droid, not an iPhone. Plus it just gives more reason for the iPhone users to say that Android copied iOS, especially when you have the theme. Although, at the end of the day, it's your choice, besides I haven't seen a ROM or launcher that makes your droid look exactly like an iPhone.
Dude, it shows how flexible android is. You can even theme your phone as meego or WP7. Can other OSs do that besides android? Lol think outside the box bro.

Oh no, I'm all for theming and installing other launchers on Android, I don't see why people would want something that looks like an iPhone, when they can get an iPhone. Although, I am all for launcher 7. Mainly because it changes the way you interact with the Phone, rather than just skinning it.
I think you can try this launcher: Espier Launcher(made by Chinese)Ok if it does not support your lauguage....may be you can try GO launcher?

Its not as easy as search and paste.You need to make the icon the right size.Its not as easy as you say
Prawesome is right. Icons need to edited to the perfect size. I recommend 90*90 or 72*72 size for iOS icons.

I seriously dislike the TouchWiz UI. It's very boring and dull, I love the way stock Android looks with its dark and light blue theme, very minimalistic and intuitive and I hate the way TouchWiz is just black grey and a mixture of other colors. I'm using NovaLuancher but it only changes the home screen, I'm looking for stock android settings menu and notification/status bar. Is there a solution to this yet? Putting stock ICS on the Galaxy S3? Or are there any launchers or skins that make the settings menu and notifications look like stock ICS?
No one? I'd also like to know.

Check themes and apps section.. If you can't find any themes, then no.. Just hang on... There will be 100 theme releases soon where all is "aosp" and every rom is AOSP themed. Cm9 and aokp will sure also find its way some day

Forgive my ignorance but I've been a iOS user since the first iPhone and I just switched to ICS because I was sick of the iPhone. What is AOSP? I know what CM9 is, what would you recommend me to install on my phone?
AOSP stands for "Android Open Soruce Poject" it is basally the barebone android OS made by Google for all to see. Many roms are based off of it, as the code is release soon after googles flagship nexus devices.
I like aosp too but dont yiu guys think it makes the phone look cheap? I find touchwiz icons classy..
I would suggest waiting a month or so after your carrier gets it to put a custom ROM on it. By then a lot of bugs well have been worked out and there will be some great tutorials available.

no, because you can customize it to your liking. there are thousands of options.
to the op download a launcher and it might imprve your experience.
I doubt CM9 or other stock ICS ROMs will have features like smart stay or s voice...if they do include them, that would be awesome!

CM9 for SGS3 would be custom to suit the S3.. So I'm sure it would include all the features unique only to the S3....
I think the TouchWiz 5 UI is quite nice, MUCH better than the 4.0 on my SGSII, however, I use Nova launcher because S launcher is driving me crazy
Nevertheless, AOSP is still much better, and as the SGSIII is a hugely successful and famous device, so it won't take long for the first AOSP roms to spread from the ground Just have a look at the SGSII
cheers

The launcher doesn't replace the entire framework. What is it with people and thinking a launcher does everything?

Because for most people what matters is what the device looks like, and not really what is underneath. Most users don't even know what a framework is.
So the launcher suggestion is valid if all the user wants is something that resembles iOS.

The style of the settings, does that not matter? No launcher can replace the ugliness of the Samsung settings. That goes way down in the systemui or framework.

I am looking for someone experienced in ROM making to help with an iOS ROM I would like to make. Don't worry, I will do stuff too:
•The home screen layout
•Settings app
•Basically all default iOS apps
•Wallpapers
•Anything else you could think of
The reason I am asking is because I have no experience in ROM making, but I'm an intermediate (borderline expert) at creating Android apps.
If anyone decides to help me, I would like to ask if you could create the custom dialog boxes like iOS 8, because I can't seem to do it with a normal Android app.
Thanks.
Why don't you just use an iOS launcher?
1. I like making my own apps
2. Why not make a ROM? :3

Well you're asking someone else to do the work for the base at least. I do see you are experienced in app making, which is pretty cool, but honestly compiling a base isn't that difficult, and all you need is a standard ROM base which you will be editing the systemui.apk and essentially creating a custom launcher (app) to go over, what specifically do you need a ROM maker to do?
Create the base files for it to run, then I can make the apps to go in /system/app and whatever else needs changing

But why can't you just compile AOSP/CM/OMNI etc.. and use that? Like what in a "custom" ROM do you need?
But iOS isint part of the AOSP It would probably be better to do it from scratch.

You cannot literally incorporate iOS into Android. It is a closed source custom OS that is somewhat Unix based. You would actually have to custom re-write the entire OS from scratch if you wanted to do it the way you are describing. The only feasible way to get what you're asking is a very heavily customized launcher over a regular Android base, kind of like MIUI. You would be hard pressed to find a developer who even wanted to hand code an entirely new Android base just to get the same functionality of a custom launcher. I don't mean to discourage you but I don't think you fully appreciate the amount of work you're asking someone to do.
Anyways, was really just trying to clarify your question to see if I could help, I hope you understand what I am saying here. Good luck with your endeavor.
The ROM would basically be the same as all others. I don't really want to modify the build.prop or anything myself as I will probably brick my phone. The iOS launcher side of it, won't be too hard. There are iOS launchers on the play store so it is possible. Most stuff could just be normal android apps like normal android launcher.apk. The only thing I would need help on is chsnging the default dialog box shape & colour to match iOS's one.
