As said no way Samsung To Samsung CM to CM AOSP to AOSP stock bits only .
Might have a look at the custom roms with what you want or look at the market place for apps that look like what you want .Also themes section to see if any modified apps .
Best way to test is replace apk in system/apps in the actual rom and flash .

*Updated to Sensation fingerprint*
Can't download or even play certain apps or games such as Gameloft's N.O.V.A.3?
Follow the below steps to make your HTC ETO 4G LTE disguise itself as a HTC Sensation to get the best of the Google Play Store.
Tested working on stock ROM with Root and SU.
Modern Combat 3, N.O.V.A. 3 tested to work perfectly. All other Gameloft games should work and show up in market.
Please note, if you have a custom ROM, you probably do not want to use this. It will overwrite your ROM creator's settings. It will probably work, but it will take away certain features of their build.prop tweaks.
Users are saying that this kills Google Wallet. I cannot confirm this since I don't use it. Use at your own risk. Please update us if it does or not.
You must be rooted!
BACKUP YOUR CURRENT BUILD.PROP
1. Clear Google Play Store Data (Settings, Apps, All, Google Play Store, Clear Data)
2. Download the build.prop I have attached at the end of this post.
3. Unzip it
4. Use a file explorer such as ES File Explorer and navigate up to /system
5. Copy and paste it over your current build.prop in/system
6. Reboot phone
Clear as mud
*Edit*
Removed manual way to update (Hardcore DIY'ers can Google it)
Updated build.prop to HTC Sensation (pyramid). Apps were showing up before with the Galaxy SII build.prop changes, but downloaded files weren't compatible with our phone. Sensation makes for a better fingerprint.
Thanks for this! Only one thing:
People need to understand that if they're not on the stock ROM (that this build.prop is based off of) that they are risking losing whatever modifications their ROM devs added into build.prop.
Different devs do different things in there....blindly replacing your ROM's build.prop is usually a bad idea.

True... which is why it's important to manually make the change to the build.prop on your rom. Takes a little work, but worth it.
If you follow these instructions, you cant mess it up.

Meaning anything that's not stock. Viper, PokeROM, Fresh, whatever.
Each developer tends to make their own build.prop edits. If you just make the changes to the stock build.prop that the OP attached and you're running any custom ROM you're overwriting whatever they may have done. Unless your Dev puts the change into his/her ROM, or someone makes a flashable zip for you, for your ROM, just grabbing a random build.prop and using it because it has the edits you want is a bad idea.
I'm using Joelz9614 rom just manually edit. A safe rule is never paste over the prop when you can do the edits yourself if you're not sure if it's modded

Exactly.
One more note guys this will kill google wallet mine was still stuck so not sure about those already set up but changing your device to a non wallet device means no wallet. Just thought I'd add this though we are bound to see people ask about it anyway. Perhaps that can be added to the op

so i screwed up! i edit manually didnt work maybe i mis spelled.. and then thought i could just flash that build prop posted...and i had just flashed FRESH 5.0 and just kinda now read that i should have changed the build prop with that rom untill the developer had that built in.. any ideas what the hell i can do now?

OPen the zip for the Fresh ROM, go to /system and pull out build.prop. Push that to your phone, and change the permissions.
Or, flash Fresh over your current installation without wiping.
You could push the original build.prop to your phone from the Rom you are using or reflash

Won't Gameloft eventually make the market change so that the One-X variants are downloading the HD versions? I would only do this if you have to have it now...

You could reflash your ROM or ask the dev for this build.prop file to paste over your corrupted one.
it was a damn brick and i could even get to recovery screen... i did volume down and power and the bottom buttons would flash and then finally stopped i then press volume down and power and magiclly i got to the bootloader then the recovery and reflasheed
You removed the changes that needed to be made manually? I applied the Samsung changes and now would like to apply the new sensation changes. I guess I'll dig through the build.prop and check which lines are different
To the OP, why would you remove the changes to the file that can easily be done manually??? It's a simple mod that can be done. Users NOT in the know will replace their their file with yours, only to end up with a mess because they are on a different rom that has somewhat different parameters than what's in your attachment.

Hey guys. I am using the Padawan ROM and it does not come with S Memo and S Note. I want to learn how to install these apps on custom ROM's that do not include the S-Apps. I tried flashing someone's ZIP and changing the permissions using Root Explorer and it didn't work. I also tried adding the apk's to the system app folder manually and changing the permissions. This was also a no go. Has anyone been able to successfully do this on custom ROM's that do not have the S-apps? If so, can you guys shoot me a bit of help?
If you were unable to successfully install the apks manually, I would recommend that you could:
A) restore your backup of your stock ROM (I'm assuming that you would be clever enough to create a CWM or TWRP backup before flashing a custom ROM),
B) use Titanium Backup to backup the S-Apps (really you should backup all your apps just to be safe),
C) flash the custom ROM of your choice and restore your apps using Titanium Backup. However please note that you can only restore the S-Apps to Touchwiz based ROMs.
I hope this is helpful for you!

I've seen many developers write that the s-pen apps require TouchWiz framework ( i.e., s-pen will not work on any CM or other non-TW based ROMs).
Here's hoping someone find a work around.
Da g has successfully ported hovering point in a couple of his custom ROMs that are mixed of different bases loaded
I'm also very interested in seeing the touchwiz/pen based features (snote, smemo and related features) in JB. I'm running the paranoidandroid hybrid cm10 ROM (love it so far!) and these capabilities would really round it out for me.
S-apps are TW dependent, and require the Touchwiz framework to function....
We may see JB TW based roms in the future that contain these APK's, but until an official JB update is sent to the note 1...(if ever) we are forced to use a TW rom (UCLF6)....or a play store variant of the S-apps,....g
Papyrus
I installed Papyrus to get some of that capability back. I read about it somewhere here. It has just been ported to GNote in the last little while I believe. projectpapyrus dot com

The Padawan ROM is ICS based but the author pulled out those apps (along with many other apps). But he saved off all the extracted apps which can be found on a link he provided in the OP (the server has been down lately though).
So go to that link, download the 2 apps u want then reboot into recovery and install the zips. That's it.

Hey all. I've themed my n3 to ultimate awesomeness. Everything's black and whited out..except my phone, contacts, and mms. Does anyone know of a flashable zip for a deodexed touchwiz mj4 setup? I also might be interested in making a donation in order to see this happen. If anyone has any info it would be a great help. Thanks,
-Matthew:laugh:
No promises. But should be a pretty simplistic flashable phone / contacts / mms / email package added to the minin3 rom in the development section in the next day or so. Just transitioning to V4 first.

What about for a stock touchwiz rom? I finally got it right where I want it and don't want to flash any other rooms until kit Kat. If not no worries man.
There is a guy in the tmobile section that had a stock base themed like dark holo. It looks great.
Unfortunately, he doesn't want to port it. Someone should bring his work over here.
school right now, ugh.

Well to be honest I don't know anything about how to port stuff as I am still an intermediate noob. Butt maybe I will look into it if I ever have the time.

The ones coming for minin3 will work on a stock rom. Provided you can meet 2 conditions.
1. Must have root.
2. Custom recovery twrp for flashing.
Or.. A file manager with root access.
Or... Adb access
Or.... terminal emulator.

One more question. Will I see a separate flashable zip? Or is there more to it?
In the next day or so it'll show up as a flashable zip with an explanation. Should be easy to find.

Hi
I wonder if theres a Clean Stock Rom Lollilop 5.0.2 For A7 , with minimal system software Stock without modifying anything, I just want a Simple system android, Its annoying that apps like KNOX,Smart Manager,S finder etc.. its better to remove.
That's true. But I delete these things with root explorer. So the Sami waste is gone.
Sent from my SM-A700F using XDA-Developers mobile app
But im,afraid... some apps are connected to them when I tried to remove, we can`t just simply remove it, otherwise we have to restore the system again..
Look a bit around here in xda forum. You find many stuff over debloating Sami Roms. Often heavenly detailed.
