browsing in xda, and i saw an interesting rom called chameleon rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1847600

so far all the samsung based custom roms are the same.
with the same tweaks, and extra features. none of them really stand out, and they all can be categorize in the same category.
(alliance, disaster, omega, zerobug,wanam,neat)

chameleon rom stands out from the rest because its a samsung touch wiz based rom with aokp features. everything feels and looks like aokp rom.

thanks to touch wiz, hwc working flawlessly and get full butter experience, hdmi port, wifi direct and fm radio working too.

aokp rom control, provides the usual awesome tweaks and customizations. however, since dev replace all touch wiz apps (other than camera and fm radio) with stock aosp apps, it lose some features too.

pros, when compared to samsung based custom rom
~customizable aosp lock screen, 8 apps& other shortcuts. samsung lock screen only can put 4 apps, and no shortcuts such as direct call/sms.
~torch toggle in notification bar
~android 4.2 camera's tiny planet effect works. (it dont work on disaster and alliance rom)
~phone feels a tiny tiny bit faster, maybe aokp transitions are higher frame rate compared to touch wiz transitions?
~status bar swipe to control brightness (oh god i miss this feature so much!)
~can use 1 finger swipe down to expand notifications (samsung rom need 2 finger)
~aosp browser much more user friendly than samsung browser
~no bloatware, more space in system partition, i got 200MB extra
~nicer holo UI, better than aosp theme in alliance rom

cons compared to samsung custom rom
~aosp dialer no vibrate when call connected and ended
~aosp contact cant swipe to call/sms
(luckily above 2 feature is available in app called ex dialer)
~no screen timeout toggle
~no more call recording feature
~no more multi window function, seldom use anyway
~no more touch wiz task manager, sigh...kindda like it.

really a unique rom, it definitely deserve its place in the original android development section.

I think u guys should stop flashing China rom on any device. Its different. HK and taiwan are ok.

Just FYI there are no google apps or framework on china roms (as google is banned there)
*
then how they download app with no play store?

Just installed Rootbox v3.8, heard Pacman had a few fixes that weren't rolled out yet in their current build. Much more zippier than the default ICS wink.gif
