I tried porting miui for my device (galaxy s duos) using nexus s rom as reference and pmp ultra as base. But alas! The rom did not boot even after repeated tries . Then I got to know that the rom I used was a jb one. Can anyone plz give the link of miui ics 4.0.4 version of nexus s or nexus one or anyother phone's miui link which is safe to port.
Ok,
I have been eagerly waiting for the 4.4.2 Kitkat official update due to the bugs or whatever the 4.3 has. But as we know, we may not get the update. So, for the first time I am looking for a custom ROM, as the title says, I need any 4.4 ROM with Touchwiz, I've searched this forum and also Googled, I found the S4 Revolution but its 4.3, so, if there's any 4.4 Touchwiz ROM I am not aware of. I will be glad if you tell me. If not then I'm going for the S4 Revolution. Thanks.
How can you expect a custom touchwiz kitkat rom when you know there is no official one nor will be??
Touchwiz is closed source so apps can be ported at best but not whole rom...
Sent from my GT-I9300
Oh is that so? Since the note 3 launchers were ported, I thought even the whole ROM might be ported too. Lack of knowledge about the ROMS, sorry and thanks .

Yup, it is. If you could give me the Fly Era Style 3 (IQ4415) ROM, I could do the porting for you . By the way, I have the same phone. Have already tried MIUI, Note 3 (beta), Yandex ROMs on this phone and I didnt like them. I would be very thankful if you could link me this Fly Era Style 3 (IQ4415) ROM.
Good Day all together
I want to creat a MIUI V5 ROM for the Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 with the Latest CM 11 Snapshot M9. I tried it some times with a tutorial, but it don't work, always gave me an error in the recovery...
The latest MIUI ROM for S3 is based on 4.1.. not been updated to 4.4 or even 4.3. So I decided to creat my own thing. But it don't run like I hope
So it would be really great if someone can help me in this case. Really like to know how it works. I know some things about the phone and the Android software, but not everything.
Please help me

Upgrading Ported Custom ROM
Hello everyone here,
By following this thread so far, I've managed to port a custom ROM successfully for my device from existing Base ROM. Kudos to ArjunrambZ for this helpful thread for noobs like me. But both the ROMs are Android 4.1.1 . Now can anyone help me how to upgrade the version(Example: I want to upgrade to Android 4.4.4) of my Ported ROM? I googled a lot but I couldn't find anything useful/understandable for me. Thank you and thanks to KJ for pushing me in the right direction :cyclops:
ROM structure
Nice guide I haven't actually tried this yet but I have a few questions
As far as i knw porting means running a rom on a device for which it was not created
If this is the case why do we copy only specific folders (apps, fonts, media, framework) . from port rom to base rom? So there r still parts of original rom in new ported rom what is work of those parts? And what is work of parts we copied from port rom?
At 1st i thought the remain of base rom which we didn't replace is device specific i.e it contains drivers, etc am i correct?
Plus i have one more query what if i want to port a completely diff version port rom
For example i have a note 2 and i knw there won't be any lollipop release for it
So what if i want to port lollipop to my device since i have base rom as kitkat and port rom as lollipop, is it possible cross version porting?
Thanks
