all the gigs that have stuck Matias Duarte and his team to make pure Android more attractive and functional and you can not use it … And all because the manufacturer of your phone or tablet is committed in customization layer. That and you do not want to change ROM, you think that is out of reach. Well, there you also for pure Android and you can enjoy it without changing ROM , simply by installing a few applications. We teach you how?
The first thing I want to say I’m defending customization layers manufacturers (and sometimes operators) in many cases, because sometimes not only add bloatware. You can get to like the touch that gives Sony Touchwiz functionality or the latest HTC Sense. To taste the colors. I recently had a reflection on the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S 4 of Google or just coming saliditos eastern factories.
And another clarification: we will try to approach pure Android with a few tweaks, it would never be AOSP, as the applications that come with your phone can not necessarily change, we are looking to the interface is similar to the Nexus, not to magic (for example, you will not have Google Now if you have 4.1.x or later). AOSP is pure Android, but does not have to be backwards equivalence . Hands.
general interface: the launcher, widgets and wallpapers
Obviously, the first thing we do is put a launcher in line with our needs.
The most recommended
close as possible to pure Android are Apex, one of the most complete launchers around Google Play, and Jelly Bean Launcher.
the first, plus get the interface almost exactly what Google has designed have extra features: gestures, animations, icons, you can do anything, note that usually the basis of “Android Create” of our Adrian wanted.
second has but is a direct clone of Jelly Bean (with pluses and minuses) and is valid for still you keep on Froyo or Gingerbread, which allows non-Apex (4.0.3 only below).
Whichever
which one you choose, you will greatly improve your experience.

course, the wallpapers , albeit secondary, and finally all just changing one of our taste, they are also pure Android flagship brand, so we can not put them down . With install these four apps are covered, and we will have live wallpapers and static designed by Google, both for ICS to JB.

But Android loses much force without widgets , and pure Android are very good, so we also touches replicate its effect with these apps … In this case for ICS and JB watches , and contacts (which for this you have to have Honeycomb on).

Apps of all types: keyboard, contacts, camera …
very good pure Android apps, many can not match with what is imposed on us by the manufacturers, other maybe we like more so, but of course the Android 4.x style we like, so also going to replicate that.
keyboard is one of the greatest advances in terms of Google Apps in recent times, while it is true that many people use Swype or Swiftkey, to name two apps that are always perched on the top of the most downloaded of payment, but still, Google has been trying to introduce the main features of these keyboards and I must say that the experience is very good. Again, two apps clones:
