INTRODUCTION
I've been flashing for a while now (Since G1) and XDA is my main lurking place. And it seems recently I can't find any lite TW ROMs (Which I like most) so I guess it should be about time I contribute a little something... even though it ain't much. This is very likely a one off thing until comes a time I have something to share again... so no frequent updates because it takes alot of time and I'm a really lazy bastard. Technically TWL ROM is a simple stripped down stock ROM. No extra features, no eye candies and no extra tweaks. Just plain, dark, light TouchWiz ROM.
UPDATE: I've put everything back where it was and stripped APKs further without going overboard... still managed to break SNote. WTF.
CREDITS
1. chipwizz - Thanks for the awesome ROM and Guide. One of the main reason why I decided to try this out myself.

3. dsixda - Thanks for the Kitchen.
4. gu5t3r - Thanks for the GOptimize. Awesome work.
5. Phil3759- Thanks for the Awesome Kernels.

APKs LEFT IN ROM (Note: All APKs are in Preload)
DOWNLOAD
1. TWLv2.0LTC (Google Drive)
2. TWLv1.6LTC (Google Drive)
3. Mediafire
HOW TO INSTALL
1. Download the latest Philz Kernel.
(Preferably PhilZ-cwm6-XXLTA-ATL-5.15.0-signed.zip or later)
2 On CWM Recovery, Install Philz Kernel. Reboot Recovery.
(Advanced -> Reboot Recovery)

RECOMMENDED
1. Flash Forest-HelloWorld-Make-II kernel for JB N7000 if you want a little more power and battery life. Awesome work by forest1971.
2. If you don't use multi window (I never used it in everyday life, not sure why), you can delete; FlashAnnotate.apk | FlashAnnotateSvc.apk | FlashBarService.apk (It will free up 20MB+ of RAM).
3. Give DigiCal a try... It comes with pretty widgets that somewhat resemble Splanner's. If you're prefer it or some other Calendar App over Splanner, you can delete;SecCalendar_Q1_SPen.apk | SpPlannerAppWidget.apk (It will free up 20MB+ of RAM).
