HI, I was wondering if anyone wanted to add a new device to their Source or AOSP Developing. See, me and alot others have a device known as the Samsung Dart. It is a sister varient of the Samsung Galaxy Mini. The reason I'm asking for someone to compile roms for it is that it still runs android 2.3! The Samsung Galaxy Mini is running Android 4.2. It doesn't matter if you don't own the device! I'm a very good rom porter, so I'm just asking for a DEV Rom. Something to get progress started. I was wondering if anyone could help. I have the links to the source for the Dart. Im just asking for a ics or jellybean port.
If your interested here you go:

If you are interested in porting cwm recovery, here is CWM 5.0.2.6 for the dart(scroll down):

This a list of all the official stock ROMs from Samsung available for the Samsung Galaxy Dart (SGH-T499):

And sense the Samsung Dart doesn't have it's own XDA, Here is the forum to post your roms:

So I have a Samsung Galaxy Young S6312 running on Android 4.1.2. Now, CyanogenMod 11 is not available for my device but it is available for a very similar device, GT S6310. Now, the two devices are virtually same in every aspect. I want to know if I can flash the ROM made for GT S6310 to GT S6312?? I know that, strictly speaking, roms made for one device should not be flashed to other devices, but I really want to test out cm 11.. also, if anyone has the link to cm 11 for GT s6312, please post it... not that I was able to find it anywhere.....

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

Hi I am a Galaxy s3 user who installs custom roms to improve my device. I have installed many TouchWiz and pure stock roms for my device and i have liked TouchWiz roms. But i want a Full lollipop TW rom for my device. But I dont see any rom that sufices my wants. That is why i am asking skill full developers to port/make a full Lollipop TW rom. I have a idea and i dont know if it will work. Why dont we port the firmware of the Galaxy J2 to our S3. The reason i said that because they are both quite similar. The screen of the S3 is better than that of the J2, the processor is similar/better, and most of the S3s specs is better or similar to the J2. Or can someone port the Motion rom from the s3 Neo to the intl ver of the S3. I cant port roms because i dont know how to that is why i am asking great developers to help us.
