Hi guys!
I have a question, I make roms for the LG Optimus 3D device, and let me know if you could carry aPKs ICS to Gingerbread, or is so hard it's not worth it.
Since I have searched and searched and nothing, so if anyone has done it I would like to guide me.
Thank you very much
P.D: If anyone is encouraged to port it too, here I leave:

OK well you wont be able to do a direct port, what it will require is using the Android compatibility libraries to replace the new API functionality (which GB doesn't have) The other option is to port the system.apk over (but i have no idea how one would do that)
This should all be pretty obvious to and Android developer though....
Questions should be asked in Q&A forums, not Development forums.

Hello, I know this is a really stupid question and please if you find too stupid delete this thread or report it.
Here goes: Is there a slightest possibility to get a sense rom on the samsung galaxy s2? Since im used to my htc hd2 which runs many roms and Oses.
Thanks in advancE!!
Someone is working on it, search for the thread in the dev section.
No its nowhere near working, its not even booting at the moment.
And it probs wont be usable for a very long time.
Hi guys, I was thinking about trying to port CyanogenMod to Lg Optimus Chic E720. I'd like to know if there's any tutorial about this, or at least a few tips for start the development. How to start? Supposing i've already downloaded the sources. Is CWM required? Because at the moment I've only got AmonRa style recovery by drellisdee
up please help me
This should help you
How could it help me building CyanogenMod?
I used that kitchen to cook the official 2.2 and 2.2.1 from LG, i don't think it is useful for porting CM, isn't it?

This is a hard question
Hmmm...
Hmmm... Porting ROMs is a bit hard but I think you can manage it. You'd have to find a device with the same resolution and the same CPU Type and download the CyanogenMod for it and then try porting it.
I think this might help you...

If people are looking to move into development, dont be a ****, you know who you are!
First off, any question of this nature will get you slammed by "pure" devs, because, it is not easy and takes hard work, "pure" devs will take the time to slam you for not doing as they have done, watch Hackers from the 90's, joey gets slammed all the time. Asking questions without taking the time to look first, or asking questions which look this way, makes you a target!
The key is to read, search, read, investigate, search, read, learn! then do it all again. There is a massive repository of knowledge out there, if you come and say something like "I have been looking to port a CM build, I have looked into it there is alot, anyone know a good place to start?" Your less likely to get slammed.
The CM Wiki or the CM Forum is your best bet. Plus you could join the community, start small I would, if you spend alot of time on it you could rip through some small branches with support, then move onto what you want quite quickly. If that doesnt make sense, head over to the froum and community and read, read ,read. It will eventually.
I know this post is old but people still look at it from searches. Be kind you never use'd to know either.
Thanks
Hi, I wanted to use my currently theme on sensation rom on another rom, How can I do that? Is that possible? I know that we can change anything on theme via these three files, framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and twframework-res.apk and I know that it may not compatible on other rom, But How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

i am trying to do the same thing.. but still not successful. OMG this thread is 7 months old & not a single reply from any of the devs.
Right. And the devs do nothing but sit around staring at their screens all day until people post questions in Q&A, and the moment that happens they answer said questions within 5 minutes of them being posted.
Tell me...what is 'dev' an abbreviation of ? I'll give you a clue. It's developer. And developers develop. They make stuff. Stuff they're interested in working on. They don't actually sit around all day waiting for questions to get posted in Q&A (I lied), and the chances of a dev reading a 7 mth old thread with some request from someone who wanted a theme from one rom ported to another rom is 1 in 456^901234 (that's a really remote chance in case you can't work it out).
So...I have some advice for you. Port it yourself. Theming is basic compared to coding. There are tutorials around XDA and elsewhere, and funnily enough, the Themes section has a famous basic tutorial. If you can handle/get through this, you might just be able to port this.
If you can't, you're out of luck.

Hello everyone,
This is just a quick question, that I searched but couldn't find a reasonable answer too.
I have an older LG Optimus One P500 android phone, that I would like to do some customization's too.
I noticed there are some ports already available for this phone, but not any that I actually liked.
Is it possible for me or anyone to port any phone they choose to there local phone?
For instance, wouldn't I be able to grab let's say a Galaxy S3 rom and port it to work with my LG P500?
How exactly does porting work, and can someone link me to a tutorial on how to at least edit or customize a already working rom?
Depends on the phone limitations. Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008
This should be in q&a, though
My gratitude to you my good sir, thanks for the help/link.
I have done a lot of searching on this and everything i have found suggests this is not possible but those posts are dated I just want to be sure nothing has changed recently.
I like the stock feel of the i717 with the samsung mms app and the samsung calendar app, touchwiz, etc. There are no official samsung updates after 4.1.2, but is it possible to get the samsung apps/framework working on cm11/cm10.2/AOSP somehow? It doesn't appear that anyone is too interested in doing this, maybe because the level of difficulty, but I would just like to know if it's possible. Maybe port a rom from a newer samsung phone? If its possible but not been done yet, i'm willing to do the work if someone will just point me in the right direction. Thanks.
P.S. This is a Q&A help section and I have done proper research before asking my question. No insults about my lack of knowledge please. I'm not asking anyone to do work for me, I just want advice. Thanks.
i think the problem is that you're one of the few people who like the samsung apps. a lot of people root their phones or install custom ROMs to have the ability to remove those apps.
good luck, though.

I'm always a minority lol. And I don't like all of them, just a few. Mainly the messaging app, samsung keyboard, and the gallery. And touchwiz with landscape mod is nice too. I just like the feel of a touchwiz rom but with samsung's 18 month support policy, the i717 is left hung out to dry...I wonder how hard it would be to just back-port a i747 rom? Thanks for the reply
