Hello everybody.
I have been wondering for a long time now and I thought maybe someone could answer my question.
I loved the holo ui on android jelly bean, and i own a phone with android marshmallow, my question is can i make a android 4.3 rom for my devices, if yes can i just follow a guide on the internet about compiling your own rom, or no, why not? I can't find anybody who don't want to update and just wants the newest possible, i have been googleing for a couple moths but i really can't find anything,
kind regards, Laurens
Thank you!

Hello Everyone,
I've been wondering if there's a possibility to upgrade my Ziio7 tablet to Android 3.2. Yesterday I managed to root it successfully but a vision of newer OS is so nice
Nevertheless, I've searched through few forums and googled the topic but no way I can find any suitable answers. Maybe I'm searching using wrong criterias?
If someone konows how to do the trick I'd be grateful for any suggestion.
Thanks in advance,
Radek
Honeycomb never has its source released originally, so ICS would be a better bet to look for. It has specs to run ICS 1ghz processor and 512MB RAM. But from the looks of it there isn't really any dev support and there isn't even a GB update out there.
Many thanks for your reply.
I must admit that I'm quite a newbie in these matters.
Do you think there's any possibility to install more recent android version on my device?

Not sure that system update has a lot to do with root. First of all, you need to check if there're official updates for your device. And then, it's quite risky to install unofficial system updates (if there're any).
thanks for your answers. At the moment there isn't official update for my device...So i would to install a new cooked rom, like ICS... It's possible on my phone?

That depends on the ROM and the requirements it needs. You'd better consult ROM developers in this case.
Hello, guys. I need some help, if you can.
First question is if i need to root my device before installing a 4.2.2 rom. Currently i have 4.1.2 JB, but it's from factory and i haven't got the update from official soft. I don't care why i haven't, but i want it to be done.
I've read thousands of forums about rooting, installing roms and etc, but i still have some questions.
Second one is: If i finally manage to do that update to 4.2.2, what rom should i go to from there on? Stay at 4.2.2 or go further? I need a stable one, i'm not really a andoid geek, but sounds fun to get into it.
Which rom should i trust to install? First of all, i know that if i want to install a newer one, i still need to go from a 4.2.2 so i'm stuck at him for now.
And the most important: Can you provide me a link to instructions? I haven't ever done a root or installed a rom, so i'm virgin in this kind of stuff.
Best regards, Dezaxat.
Up, please ?

There will be no 4.4 official stock for galaxy s3, never, ever.
If you need 4.4.4 like CM go to cyanogenmod site and follow the steps (easy peasy installation).
It's true, that iam a newbie in Android's world.
I own samsung s3 since 2 months & it's my first android experience.
That's why i need a little explanation
why official stock rom for version 4.4.4. isn't available for our phones.
When Win XP has arrived , it was for all PCs, isn't it ?

That is samsungs decision, after some time they stop the development for the phone, and it's been 2 years now with s3, from ics to jelly bean, and the time has come and development is stopped.
But, you have samsung kitkat ports here on xda under android development, but, since they are unofficial there might be some bugs if you don't pair them with a good kernel.
Since you are new, i suggest you to take a break and read, read all the FAQ, read every info, read about EFS backup (very important) and then, when you have all the information you need, go with rom flashing etc.
And listen to me, if you won't read and inform yourself you will mess something up and come back here to ask for help, and first response you will get is read before doing anything.
Happy readin, flashing, cheers
In this case here is my next question
On the horizon appears the next version - Android 5.0
If i understand correctly, that means once again Android x.x will not be made available for our phones and we will need to get again some custom roms, aren't we ?
Ok I am not sure how to ask this question so I will explain exactly what I want to do and why I'd like to do it if possible. I have an iReadyGo Much G2 android phone and it is running Android 4.2 but I really want an Android Wear watch which requires 4.3. I don't expect this phone to receive an update anytime soon so I want to know if it would be possible to develop a ROM to bring this phone up to speed and put Android 4.3 on it.
