[Q] Simple Questions About AOSP ROM Porting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was reading the FreeYourAndroid's How to Port Android to Another Device article and I'm really excited to test out some very simple ROM porting/tweaking by my own. But I have some simple questions:
Where to get an AOSP ROM? (Since as you guys said is easier to port)
Is it possible to use that tutorial (as it is) to port an AOSP ROM to a Galaxy Tab?
Is it possible to use that tutorial (as it is) to port an AOSP to a Galaxy S I9000B?
Is it possible to use that tutorial (as it is) to port an AOSP ROM to a Motorola Milestone?
Best Regards

[Q] How to make a backup of a device for the Emulator?

Hi,
assuming there would be a Cyanogenmod of ICS in the near future, how can I take a backup / clone of my device ( Samsung Galaxy S II ) to run inside the emulator?
Basically, I want to make sure that I reconfigured all my applications after switching to a new ROM. At the moment, I have a rooted stock ROM from Samsung on my device.

[Q] ROM Development

Hi ppl, last days I read a lot of post about ROMs for Galaxy Tab 7510 (10.0)... but non of them had the links to the sources (i mean not only the kernel )... so I just decided to start my custom build... but first some newbie questions
1) I saw in the cyanogenmod git repository that they have a version for this tablet called android_device_samsung_p4wifi, but It is currently under development... so the questions would be... does anyone have tried this build config? does it works?
2) is CM9 the best alternative for this tablet? If not... which one would be?
3) if I use the kernel provided by samsung, and the sources from google's git repo (
(android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest), could be possible to generate a ROM that works? or there are a lot of things to program in order to reach a basic ROM?
thanks in advance!

[Q] port i9105 4.2.2 rom to i9100 ?

Hey,
The i9105 or galaxy s2+ just got a 4.2.2 update.
Any chance this can be ported relatively easy to our device ?
Go for it. I'm sure people will love you if you do.

Well, im looking for a helping hand.
Was hoping I could rally some help by posting and gaining attention.
In Q&A ? Unlikely. Devs don't read Q&A generally. Q&A is for n00bs who have no idea what they're doing mostly
In that case, maybe an admin can move this post ?
Report your OP & ask them. Won't get moved by you asking for same in the thread, this place is too big for mods to monitor stuff like that.
i dun understand why are u asking to port 4.2 from a device which has an entirely different SOC..
s2 plus has broadcom chipset while s2 has exynos...
u can manually backport apks bt not entire rom

[Q] Question about ROM choice

Hey guys, been a while since I frequented these forums.
Anyways, I am looking for a decent ROM for my i9300 (currently running ParanoidAndroid).
I would like a ROM that has:
- Samsung camera
- JB style (preferably no TouchWiz at all)
- extended Power Menu
Anyone know if a simple ROM exists with these features?
(I have had a look but I find these forums too difficult to sift through now, there is too many things going on and the new UI is irritating when trying to read- I can't concentrate)

Plz post your questions in Q&A section.
Edit - ignore the title of my post.
Samsung camera requires touchwiz rom.
1) "which rom" threads are not allowed on xda as they end up in arguments
2) general forum is not the place for questions. Q&A is for this
