Nice!
Sweet!
Now, if I had the time (and the know-how), i'd put on an apron and get busy in the Android kitchen to cook up a G2/S3 ROM!
Any seasoned cooks willing to bake this cake?
Puh-leaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

I've just started looking into porting ROMs (more specifically, ICS themes to Gingerbread), and I found a few tools that port the ROM for you. If it were really that easy, isn't it possible to port any ROM to any device? This might be a really stupid question and I'm not fully understanding what porting a ROM means.
These were the tools that I found:

Generally porting a rom means to get a rom which you like of some other device to your device... Both the devices should be same screen resolution and same android version..
I use this guide :highfive: -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32080012
So if I wanted to theme Gingerbread so that it looks like ICS (i.e. by editing Mms.apk, SystemUI.apk, etc), how exactly would I do so?
I found HoloEverywhere (https://github.com/Prototik/HoloEverywhere, README: https://github.com/Prototik/HoloEverywhere/blob/master/README.md) that lets developers theme their apps to the Holo Theme, but I'm not sure how to apply this to the Gingerbread APK files.
Are there any guides that show the user how to create a rom from scratch? I've seen multiple guides on creating a rom but they do so using the kitchen. I would prefer something that shows how to make a rom without a crutch.
please help

I would say the best way to make a ROM from scratch is to compile it from source. If your interested in learning how to compile a ROM from source I would recommend taking a look at this guide to building Jelly Bean from source, as well as Google's offcial documentation on building Android from source. Additionally this guide on Zip Based ROM tweaking is a good guide to take a look at. Let me know if you still have any questions .

Normally all device forums have tutorials on how to compile ROM from source(if someone has already compiled it).
If no development has yet started for your phone then you you need to create the device tree which is tough. Otherwise just google . There are lots of tutorials lying on xda.

Thanks, I didn't even know there was an official guide
I'm wanting an AOSP ROM on my s5 g901f but there is no support at all. Could someone point me in the right direction? I'd like to have a go and have looked up porting but I don't think that is the way to go. If somebody could give me the steps what I need to do for this modal I will research.
Could I use the cm for note 4 as it has similar specs, ie
805, 420 etc. Or s5 g900 as a base ROM? Or would I need to build from scratch?
There is only one custom ROM for g901f and that's touchwiz so somebody please help before I go insane. Touchwiz really is that bad
Up for this. Really interested especially for us who has not so good programming skills

Let's see if I can point you in the right direction! Because of the differences in specs between your S5 Plus and the regular S5 you can't use that to port ROM's. For the Note 4 idea, since you only have a Touchwiz ROM as your base (The one from your S5 Plus) it won't work properly for the port ROM (CM12 Note 4). I would recommend looking at compiling CM12 for your device, which I would recommend taking a look at this guide here. Let me know if you have any questions be happy to help you out.

Alright, the purpose of this thread is simple. I made this with the intention of uniting all of the d803 users, and give them the opportunity to post a request for a rom they would like to see on their d803's that is available for other variants such as the d802. At the moment, I've found a way to "port" only d802 roms to the d803, and by port I mean making some slight changes that allow the rom to boot in our devices without any or with the least issues possible. These two devices are very similar hardware-wise, so software wise it doesnt change much.
If there's any D802 rom that you would like to see on our D803, feel free to leave a reply and I will do my best to move my gears and upload it so you guys can have it! As we all know, the development scene for the Canadian variant isnt as active as the d801 or D802, and with this I aim to end that barrier by trying to make those roms available to our device
Too long didnt read version:
If the rom exists for the D802, post a reply and I will try to make it available for the D803
Disclaimer:
I am in no way a developer, I simply edit files and put them in the right place so it boots for us. I do this to help fellow d803 users.
If I helped with a file, always make a nandroid backup just in case things go haywire. Anything that happens to your phone is your responsibility.
Everything I submit gets tested rigorously on my own G2 before being posted to ensure its working, but we all get different results, so the experience might vary. Just a heads up.

To port any ROM to any version just download your devices patch from dr87's Mahdi ROM thread then all u gotta do is change out the boot IMG, a few lines in the build prop n updater script then flash ROM, gapps, the patch then your good. We had a similar patch for toro on the gnex forum and I was waiting for the day someone put one together for us seeing as all g2's use the same mainboard. The days of worrying about whether your variant will get support is finally over, for aosp Roms at least. I'm gonna try doing it w a stock ROM to see if that works cuz that's something I'd really love to see. Cuz as a vs980 owner I can say from experience that our stock ROM development is lacking compared to the d802 or f320

Well I meant it more in a way for those who don't understand much about editing the updater script and exchanging the boot.IMG. with what I'm offering all they have to do is ask the ROM and I'll post it online with said changes in case they don't know how to do it. Something like a small favor for everyone, but thanks for the reply!
Request
If you could please port this rom I would very much appreciate it

Could you possibly make a quick tutorial on how to do this? or possibly direct me to where i could find one?
Hi, I was looking at your old thread about how you could port d802 roms to d803. I was wondering if you could port cyanogenmod 11 snapshot m12. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d802 i would really appreciate it. and it seems like u are good at what u do so you should maybe consider building for d803 for cyanogenmod. thousands of d803 users have been waiting for cyanogenmod support but to this day have recieved none. anyways if u could port it i would really appreciate it! thanks!

Hey,
I was a semi-developer for a my previous phone, it was a mediatek.
As you all know porting and customizing ROMs for mediatek phones is really easy.
But now I also want to start building/porting for this phone.
Can someone give me links to guides,tips,.. for this phone.
What is the best phone to port ROMs from?
Thanks
Can no p760 developer give me tips? Or are you all thinkig "noob"?
You dont have to be PRO to port roms I started doing it one week ago and it goes really well. I will quote nasheich. He wrote very good tips:
nasheich said:
1. Find device with same CPU, LG L9 have dual core CPU, so find it, for example, Motorola Razr(I'm used on Mokee n Paranoid), Galaxy Tab 2(I'm used on Xperience, AOKP, Hellfire).
2. Forget about screen size(4", 5" or 7"), the important is screen DPI, it has to be used same DPI, LG L9 has HDPI, find it the HDPI device
3. Same OS version, KK with KK, JB with JB, special for JB, see the version of JB, example JB 4.2.2 with JB 4.2.2
4. Make sure you have installed software on Windows/Mac, for porting, you may need just 2 software,
- Note++(for editing build.prop & other files like .txt, .bin etc)
- Apktool (for decompile n recompile .apk n .jar files)
5. Open mind

It may be possible to use a 4.4 sourced kernel on lollipop, its been done with previous versions of android. For instance GB source is being used for KK ROMs on Galaxy S1 (very big gap), and my Opt G has L using a 4.x kernel as well. (Best ex would prob be the G1, which ran most versions of android up to ICS, incl sense, motoblur, etc)
Wait a few weeks and perhaps someone will port this w/o L source for D80x.

be warned...ppl have already bricked their devices with this...(see g3 forum) and yes it is possible to use the current kk kernel BUT its not just build and expect it to work...code changes are needed for the compensation...this stuff is already being worked on by a few devs...including me...wont give eta's but it is in progress
