[Q] Possible to Port Other Manufacturer's ROMs - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hi, I have two questions.
1. Is it possible to port other phone manufacturer's ROMs, like HTC Sense to Samsung phones, or from Samsung TouchWiz to HTC?
2. How can I, if possible, change a system app (like Messaging APK) to a normal app that can be installed via APK? (Like through Unknown Sources, not push to /system - I'm a bit lazy )
Hit thanks if I helped you! Sent from my awesome I9305!

didn't you say you're lazy? switching it to a user app is harder than pushing it to /system/app

You're lazy to do that? Try this

[ROM][GB]MokeeOS-Nexus s V1.10.436(AUG.24.12)

MOKEEOS
Hi Everybody,
This is my first ever rom on XDA. I am not a dev, i just ported this GB base rom to nexus s. I already tested everything. It works fast with out any problem. Also I have to thanks Galaxyuser who helped me to fix googleplay fc. As you know He ported this rom already to nexus s. This is the latest version of mokeeOS.
Credit goes to:
mokeeos team
Cyanogen-mod team
Galaxyuser
if you notice any bugs please post it.
if you like my work please hit thanks button.​
Note1: Gapps already included
Note2: If you have problem with su permission simply just flash this .zip file and youll e good. The problem is, mokee team has included the SuperUser into the rom, I tried to removed it but its related to framework stuff.
Installation:
If you are coming from ICS/JB roms you need to perform a fullwipe.
Issues:
- The only thing I have noticed so far , when you press About phone in setting you get FC, but other than that everything else works smooth.
P.S: This rom is meant to be for who want to experience a new GB rom with new UI, So please dont spam my thread. Also I am not responsible for whatever can happen to your phone. Flash it at your own risk.

Buddy, I did not ask you to flash this rom. if you dont want to flash please dont spam the thread and wait for JB rom to release.
What launcher are you using? I know galaxy user put go launcher but I didn't like it. I prefer gb over ics because it's a memory hogger!
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2
Never heard of MokeeOS. Care to tell me what is so special about this ROM? It looks interesting.
Any plans for a 4.04 version? Can't seem to go backwards; heck Jelly Bean is even out.

I agree. You're going to have a difficult time finding people to run this on their phone. People don't want to downgrade.

While you may use it, I think you might be flogging a dead horse here seeing as nearly everyone is waiting for JB proper. I am sure its a good ROM but its a bit like trying to sell a VCR player when Blu Ray is out.
Timing is a wonderful thing
this is a really nice rom! thanks!
nice rom but su permissions not working
edit
Re rooted with one click to fix su.

[THEME] [WIP] CM9 SystemUI V1

Hey Guys!
So this will technically be my first work here on xda (besides testing for various devs).
:highfive:
THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL AND MOST LIKELY WILL NOT WORK!
I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR DEVICE!!!
Again, this will most likely not work because i took this file DIRECTLY from the CM9 that munjeni made.
If I cannot get this working, I will try to get into themeing and make a Touchwiz systemui (i love green). :good:
I'm fully aware that brnt here on xda has made a Android 4.0 style systemui, but i really want the BEHAVIOUR of the notification shade.
Even though I am a TOTAL n00b at themeing I hope you guys will show some support and give some helpful suggestions and comments on my future work. IM LOOKING AT YOU BRNT!!!!! :silly:

Yes, I have tested this and it does in fact NOT WORK............yet..............
it is intended for sense-based roms.
Because I took it directly from CM9 it for sure doesnt work on sense yet.
Im trying to get it working...
And guys, please read entire post before downloading...
There will be requirements to port parts of the framework, and possibly modding many other files relating to it.
It will take alot of work mate, you can try it out but it will probably require more work than you first thought.

I followed it and some how it partially helped! I managed to install the stock gingerbread rom! My issue right now is that the rom has an incomplete user interface as shown in the image below! And it was pre rooted(found it rooted)! That doesn't mind so much since I already want to install ics!y query is that, will the LG mobile update tool work for me??? Since the phone is already rooted! Or should I unroot it first??

While I do like this xbsa vr I'm run in, the dirty american in me is just ever so slightly put off by my device's identity confusion. -it thinks its a p920- which has no bearing at all on how excellent this from is at all, but I think it would be thrilling to try something american made I say go for it! I for one at least want it.....also can someone tell me what pmw stands for what its purpose is and how crucial its presence? Please and thank you.

Have you tired just installing the stock keyboard app?
Extract and copy the files into system/app and reboot.
SwiftKey keyboard is a lot better though, its a paid application but you can easily find the apk on google. The latest version is 4.2.1.202

1- yes it's rooted, coming with default cwm recovery for 4.2.2(from what i remember, but if it's not it will be cwm based recovry)
2- you should, i don't see why you can't, it's the same like installing any cm 10.1 rom

The rom is actually quite good. It comes with basic language as chinese but can be changed to english in setting. The only drawback is there's no google playstore. I wonder if flashing gapps will work. Give it a try as it is a real ported new OS for our Note.

Well for starters you can search for the gear symbol (usual setting icons) or 设定/设置(either one) then look for the writing 语言. After that u should see 英语(usa/uk/ ) that's it
