Did u use cm10 as base? Btw that guide is weird, I think you can't just replace the framework folder
Ps: that n7000 isn't even an aosp rom

When you port a rom is important that both phones have the same resolution... In our case haves to be a phone
with a resolution of 400 x 800 inches

that's the reasen i asked you ... because i wanna know if exist any way to port that kind of roms to our phone ... so i think if we can combine some of framework files with that to make it work ... but i don't know very well what can be changed and what needs to be developed ...

You can only do that on aosp based roms and the only we have is cm10 / 10.1

It has a lot of bugs, but I,m confident that SWEATTAIMI will be able to squash them and deliver us a working version.
Best of luck .... SWEATTAIMI

It's a request for developers to convert that galaxy ace ROM to our phone.
In my opinion, his English was okay, so what part didn't you understand?

Download the ROM. Extract the zip file. The base, i guess is the indian gingerbread. Download it for galaxy mini. Extract that too. Or take a 2.3.6 based custom ROM (a stock based one, not cm7 or miui) replace the app, framework, and media folder with the ones in the ACE's ROM. Should boot.

I think it would know to do these steps, but where I can find a rom based on the same baseband? I do not ask you to do the job bro .. but I never touched and this sort of thing and I would need some help. I would greatly appreciate it bro ..

LOL!! It's not so easy... You can copy files from one zip to other, yes. But don't expect a stable/usable ROM from that, even don't expect to see it working

[ Guide / Script ] Auto-Porter

WINDOWS
Note: Tested on Windows 8
1) 7-Zip
2) Winmerge
3) Notepad++
4) Java SE Development Kit
5) Place on your Desktop in a folder.
This script comes with instructions for each step, It is the MIUI auto-porter modified for general use with CM10 based roms.
It will say a bunch of stuff about MIUI on the splash-screen at the start, Ignore it.
Any Rom that uses CM10 as a base can be ported to this device using this script.
Download: Auto-porter
I know It's not a new rom update but I figured you folks would like it better, to test it out go to AvatarRoms site or some other CM10 based rom and try your hand at porting!
Some roms will have TW framework or other things like this and that must be taken care of manually, so for more complex ports you will need a good understanding of how to port and diff and xml editing and so on; but for very basic things or to create a quick port to assess what kind of potential work would need to be done, how compatible your device is with a base; this is a good place to start.
Hello
We can port any rom based on CM10 with this ? Like Paranoid Rom ??

Try to and it wll prob work
I have already tried this with CM10 epinter for base and Paranoid for AT&T One X because they are the same architecture and screen size ( 1280*720 )
But they don't start, i see the log but i don't understand anything ^^'
I retry and i give you feedback
Thanks for your work
im trying that right now the cm10 and pana will tell you if it works its 2.70 so dont think it has pie but hey whatever

Sometimes the foreign rom is just not compatible as a base, you will see results as you experiment and find which phones are most 'similar' to yours
If anyone has successfully ported a rom with auto-porter that boots and is somewhat functional or functional, then please post and share the details here. I personally do not know how to port a rom, or make a rom etc., But I am willing to learn how to use the auto-porter in this thread if someone is willing to point me in the right direction. Like which base to use, and what modifications need to be done and so on...
the tmobile s3 is based from the same chipset, should try there to see

It might work with CM9, worth a try.
May I ask why CM9? CM7 is much more stable on these phones.

OMEGA ROM

Could someone please create or porting a fantastic rom OMEGA ROM for our advance? THANK YOU VERY MUCH
As far as I know the Omega ROM series are made from Samsung's (stock) firmwares... and since we don't have stock 4.3 firmware, we can't directly get this ROM...
Plus I don't even know whether porting ROMs based on stock firmware is possible or not...
And we do have awesome ROMs like HarshJelly, LightJB, Pure Vanilla, JellyMod and of course Sami OS But yes anyone is welcomed to contribute something to our phone....

Hmm.. so if porting ROMs based on stock firmwares is possible then what ROM should I use as base? Because obviously I can't use CM as base for porting a ROM that is based on Stock Samsung firmware... am I right about this?

oh its for s2 so we cant port it because s2 uses ericson chipset and s advance uses novathor 8500 chipset so we cant port that rom only if this rom is available for novathor 8500 device it is possble to port
but we can make a rom themed like omega (like xperia ui rom in samsung) i will try my level best
and now i am working on a stock based rom with lot of modding and improved performance i will do it after completing it:good:

i am not sure
we can port aosp with aosp not sure about aosp with cm base or cm with aosp base but it will be possible i think but needs a lot of experience. we can use only drivers and sensor files and rest use cm files and kernel of cm to port cm
you can try in this way bro

Well my advice is get use to logcats(google troubleshooting them, maybe even research a few ported manifactured roms to different devices and kernel porting will also be a big part of a build like this) , if you can get it to a working state these areas will be where most of the problems will be show whats conflicting, But without a kernel built/ported for the rom and hardware confliction issues your gonna have issues logcat may not be able to solve. Its not impossible but its far from easy porting from a different manifactured device but it does happen, htc roms have been brought to samsung for a few devices tho very few if any ever 100% function and it can be very time consuming for even a pro builder. would be nice for a custom factory rom from another branded device on our device!. I i wish you luck and will keep my fingers crossed and will check it out once its posted :good:

You are talking about 2 completely different things here. Our custom Roms are stock based with some modifications. These are no ports.
Sent from my SM-T210 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Mm... I see what you mean.
Still, we could get a Nexus 7-like Lollipop ROM when Cyanogen releases CyanogenMod12. Or 13. Cannot remember.. :silly:
btw using a Touchwiz based rom to port a AOSP rom is completely useless that will never ever boot.
if you port something do it from a similair device with the same hardware and uif you port aosp you need a aosp base! if you port a touchwiz based rom use a touchwiz based rom Easy!
Mate not to crush your dream or effort but what the other devs are tell you if true including my self. Educated your self more, all the tutorials and guides regarding porting, building custom rom and more can be find on xda.
As for Lollipop we would have to wait till a compatible / similar device has it before it can be ported.
On that note hope that clear up some stuff for you and understand things better.
So the galaxy tab 2 has official support from cyanogenmod which I think it will be getting cm 12 which the device hardware and specs are not much different someone can port that over to our tab 3.
Or if the tab 4 gets official Samsung android l update you devs can port it to our tab 3??

Upload the rom so i can check/replace the lib files
The only ROM that varies from stock is gr8nole's CM11 ROM. All other are touchwiz
If we had a stable CM ROM i feel this device would be very smooth and probably run some high end games smoothly

i dont think you need Gr8noles permission. just credit him in op for base rom.
