Sorry if this has already been answered, but I've searched far and wide, and only been able to find the TW UX Launcher and a port of the very early 4.0.3 I9300 firmware. So that already kind of indicates an answer to my question, but I'd rather ask to make sure.
Are there any ROMs based on the stock I9300 firmware?
None as of the moment. There was a project long time ago about porting i9300 rom to sgs2 but that project was abandoned. I saw one rom that was skinned with sgs3 theme and based on stock ics for sgs2 but unfortunately the dev has been banned due to creating multiple accounts and giving other roms a bad name (something like that).

Yes, that one
Edit: I just heard from sources on what happened to him. It's unfortunate though.

I never tried any of his roms but I heard they're (were) great.

During Google I/O, Google announced a Nexus-flavored I9305 that would run a pure unmodified version of JB 4.2.2 and come with an unlocked bootloader.
If all else about these I9305 are the same, would it be possible to just run this new Google-published 4.2.2 ROM on existing I9305? I've been trying to "un-Samsung" my I9305 since day one (big reason why I'm using CM-based custom ROMs now). Presumably this would make life easier for devs working on 4.2.2 custom ROMs?
I thought the announced was galaxy S4, the 9505 ?

Hi, I have a HTC One S. I can't complain about the phone but there aren't a lot official ROMs for this cellphone. On the new website of aokp isn't any ROM for the one s anymore, cyanogenmod has only cm10 stable and some 10.1 nightly and there is screen tearing, too. Or for example Ubuntu touch isn't avaible. Or a super nexus ROM. Or miui 5.
So my question is what is a good supported but also powerful smartphone?
Only Nexus devices get the most development support. Get a Nexus 4...
Sell it and equip yourselves with a nexus you won't start a thread like this again - for nexus something new pops up everyday
OK and any other devices? Maybe for people who are reading this thread and dont like nexus?

If you don't like nexus don't worry you will also able to use latest android resources.
But you need to search in google that how to make a own custom rom

The Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, and Galaxy Note II all have great developer support, the US market versions of these phones have even better developer support but the International versions are great too. The Xperia Z is another phone with great developer support as well. All of these devices have official Cyanogenmod support, and AOKP support (Except for the Galaxy S4 which at this moment doesn't have official AOKP) support.

Thank's but I'm a bit worried to make it myself. If it would be that simple why aren't there more roms ?

Thank's. Yes that's the problem. I live in Germany. Thanks maybe S3 or S4 Note is too big for me and I don't like Sony.

Its not simple but these days there are tutorials on compiling/debugging that makes life easier for newbies wanting to take first steps into aosp development
Bro making a rom is hard for us but not impossible.
You just need to learn how to port rom's from another device and how to modify your stock kernel to work properly in your custom rom.
Don't forget that the nexus/cm rom makers are also a human like us.
Try to search in Google.com

Rooted Samsung Galaxy Rush user here. I was wondering if it's possible to have a dev port Android 4.3 stock to the Galaxy Rush?
One guy did it for Android 4.0. Although he used other files from a different Samsung device to use it on the Rush (Prevail 2).

Hey guys. I'm using a phone called the SHV-E110S that is the Korean version of the Samsung galaxy s2 lte. The phones custom rom developments are really slow and buggy so I've been wondering if roms could be ported from other phones such as the s2 Hercules and the s2 skyrocket. I've been told that it is possible. When I flash the skyrocket rom over my phone, my lit up buttons and sound won't work. Does that mean that there is a problem with the kernel? If so, how can I port or compile to make the rom work on my phone? If anyone is free to help, just lemme know asap because I'm a newbie in this kinda thing and it'd be real nice with a proper custom rom. Thanks in advance
