[Q] Can I convert a I9100 ICS Rom to I777? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hi I was looking online and found this guide about converting i9100 rom to i777 this guy says that both phones are almost identical so it should work
Here's the link
http://android.modaco.com/topic/351812-guideconverting-i9100-roms-to-i777/
Do you think this would work?

NO! It will NOT work. Please read the stickies before posting. Looks like you're new so I'll cut you a break on the flaming here. The kernel source has to be released first.
READ!!

ughhhhhhhhhhh

OMFG n00bs

How to get i9100 ICS to i777

I can't think of any way.
If only there was a dev out there that could do it. Maybe make some method and call it something like a Hellraiser.
Boy that would be something.

Are you people serious..?? we don't need a kernel source to convert roms over. We can use the flashaholic tool or the hellraiser to do this.
We need a kernel source for properly working soft key buttons on ICS roms.

That guide is poor as hell. It fails to fix numerous documented problems with porting.
Next time, read the damn rules. You're supposed to search THESE forums, not other forums, before posting. There is no excuse for posting questions that are answered in stickies or in threads that are on the first page of the Development forum.
Gingerbread porting is fully covered. ICS porting is semi-covered but requires kernel source to work properly.
Also, Hellraiser for ICS will not exist as an automatic porting tool for a long time - Until we get a leak with updated libaudio, it will always be a manual process.

What now with ATT MIUI thread locked?

Now that the galnet att miui thread is closed where can we find updates? I am aware that we can go to the galnet site but I only see the I9100, correct me if I'm wrong but we will have problems if we try to flash this version. If we don't get our own version on galnet what needs to be modified from the I9100 version to be compatible with our device. Sorry if it's a dumb question or if it has been answered elsewhere.

Here is something I found on it. Seems like they were asking for donations to get beta releases of their Roms and XDA did not approve...
Mod please reply
I for one would really appreciate a response from a moderator as to why, particularly given the conversation pasted in the above post, why it is that these threads were killed. On the surface, it seems arbitrary and without merit...
Went through other galnet threads that were closed and the reason is that they don't release their source for the rom.
yea they are shady. Good roms but they do not comply to gpl.

yeah I remember seeing a few devs doing that back in the cappy forum a while back..
Galnet is gone... I'm not sure if we'll see the whole story, but from what I can see, I can say I don't like their attitude. It also looks like this is something that has taken a LONG time to reach finality.
As to why vanilla MIUI might have been pulled - I don't know. I'm fairly certain vanilla MIUI for the I777 was kosher GPL-wise, unless there's another GPL component beyond the kernel in question.
Here, this may enlighten the situation a bit...
zelendel said:
It means that the android kernel is protected by GPL laws. Which means the source code has to be made available. MIUI breaks these laws and refuses to post the source. So all MIUI roms have to have a custom kernel not made by the MIUI team.

So long story short, they violated several rules and GPL laws. They are gone and not coming back.
It didn't get pulled I had the admin removed it because it was to much drama at the time but it looks like I shouldnt have even tho I don't know as much as some ad these other dev, I'll reopen the thread and anyone is more than welcome to Help out with the development of the rom/port.

No, opposite. As long as they are not including the stock MIUI kernel with the rom then they are not breaking any XDA rules. But if you do see a MIUI rom including the stock MIUI kernel, thats where they break rules. There is a stock MIUI kernel built off of CM. The source has been asked for a few times and they flat out refuse to release the kernel source... so the upper staff decided to can the whole thing.

Any new roms being worked on?

So kinda new here and have flashed every rom available for our I777 phones. Anybody else working on anything new? Think I posted in the right section right?

You can also flash the i9100 ROMs and use the hellraiser package.
I think we are in the lull before the storm. Once the full i9100 ICS source drops, and a port can be made for the i777, things will pick back up to a feverish pace.
Plus, what else is there to do? Everything I have tried is stable, smooth, and generally great. If themes is what you want try CM7/MIUI, but have hundreds of themes available.
Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
I would flash some i9100 roms aka international SGS2. There are quite a few good ones. All you have to do is flash one of them and hellraise it and it will work most of the time. Start out in the Hellraiser thread and then check out the QA thread it gives some helpful info about not flashing roms with bootloaders and what not. AOSP (cm7/miui) based ROMs do not work with the Hellraiser.
ROMs are super-duper secret. You're obviously not in the loop.

someone may have flashed an international ROM, but here we can pretty much completely assure you that that person did NOT hellraise it. I think the hellraiser package has pretty much got it down well enough that there really shouldnt be any worry with it, fixes keyconfigs, kernel and some other things, so u dont need to worry much or wait for anything on that front anyway

[Official ICS] i777 UCLE5 stock from Kies

This is my method I used to get ICS stock from Kies without any mod like modem, kernel... and without any brick.
First stock to UCKH7 from (only use non root version)
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432
or
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691659
Then you base on stock UCKH7.
Second you use this:
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27707563&postcount=83
You does not need to update to UCKK6. After this step, you get stock ICS official without root
Then you can get this:
Code:
http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.8.1.8-i777.zip
This recovery only replace stock recovery to CWM temporary, but you can backup NANDROID of ICS.
Now I'm trying how to root without install different kernel
At last, i'm try Siyah kernel v3.4.2 for i777 in this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592228 is all right. Now i having super user and CWM recovery, everything work fine like bluetooth, wifi or 4G network (just icon, because in Vietnam just have 3G network ), but don't have Tethering and NFC support.
With me, Kies only detect my i777 with firmware in UCKH7 and UCLE5, with UCKK6 Kies cannot detect that.
Why is this posted in the development forum again? Its fine if people want to use this method but it belongs in general or....not here

You need to change out the stock kernel if you want to use that nandroid backup in the future. Using the kernel with a temp recovery leaves you vulnerable for the brickbug. Please remove that last part or we will see a bunch of I'm brick post.

OP, I have to agree with Phalanx on this.
Firstly, thanks for your post, but it is an instruction, not a ROM.
Secondly, the title is misleading.
Thirdly, this instruction should have been posted in the General section.
Nothing you can do now, but for your reference in the future

If you hit it most likely a mod or senior mod will see it and attend to it.
Most time just bumping it with complaints will not do anything other than raise your post count and bump the thread to the top so more people see it and the process repeats.
Best to let it die and get closed...
Maybe not closed just moved I'm sure someone could get use of this to get a complete stock version

Jelly Bean source code is out!

Seems this news hasn't made it to the Rezound forum yet, so I'm taking the initiative.
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
What I'm wondering is, when RIL is finally released for the Rezound, will it be forwards and backwards compatible? Will GB, ICS, and JB all match up and work? Or is it specific to each?
Edit: I see someone started a discussion in the General forum while I was typing this. My apologies.
This belongs in general, not development
I'd bet that the ICS RIL would work with few or no modifications in JB, but then again I don't know a thing about Android development.
Sooooo yeah. JB is pretty sweet. Before I lost my Nexus, I had JB on it, and it was AWESOMELY smooth. Even pure stock was awesomely smooth

Getting sick of these posts saying this is why people leave XDA. If you all want to leave then leave. We don't need to see this post over and over and over again!
How is your post any better then people posting what should be in the development section.
You obviously are not in a hurry to leave because you are still posting here so stop with that BS already!
And if you do decide to leave, XDA will still run just fine without you. I would much rather see jayochs stick around.
