[I9000][I9001][Q] Possible to port stock Rom? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello together !
I've been wondering while if it is to possible to port Samsung (or other) Stock Roms to the I9000/1, (of course just so far as the hardware allows...) I didn't found anything about it, so it would be amazing, if someone would try to port e.g. the S4 stock rom to our s/s+
or provide a Guide on it
THANKS IN ADVANCE

Yes and no.
It is in some ways possible but the coding etc is a hell of a job and i doubt that any developer will do this on its own.. Or in a team..
Also this question has been asked seval times Next time use search better

i agree to mrjraider...
there are some custom roms which includes the look from s3 or xperia...
scour the development forum
greets

There was one released today called Xperian UI which looks really similar to the stock Sony Xperia UI. Comes not only with Albums/Movies/Walkman but aso other apps like the clock, the calendar, Timescape etc etc. Its pretty damn close.
Porting a stock Samsung rom, we can only go so far. I've seen some developers find it absoute hell to port.

ICS vs GB and CUSTOM ROMS

All custom roms naturally have issues at this stage, some less some more. But gb rom takes the cake ( still ) on stock camera (sgs ) which have tons of modes but alas the zoom is old fashioned and not like in the ICS which has a slider. Then further, the contact photos are maybe small ( not like MIUI unfortunately ) but nevertheless, clear which u cannot say about ICS. And in terms of customization MIUI is the best there is. You customize dialler, boot animation, boot animation sound ( wow ! ) flip to silence like in HTC , long press on apps to close, etc,etc,etc. The list goes on . Too bad they do not have TV OUT which I need cause of my kids. But what I mean to say is so far besides the speed , ICS still does not have features one expects from such a heavily advertised firmware from Google. Cause if at this stage After the release of the Official ICS in Nexus, Gingerbread and MIUI is still better ( at some points , major or minor ) then maybe we are awaiting Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind as far as ICS is concerned. And Apple IOS will still keep ahead in app stability and features. The developers are doing their very best but in the end source codes are with Google and Samsung. Hope for the best and my best to the developers !

I'm confused, is this supposed to be a question or an answer?
I'm wondering the same lmao ,though for whoever searches this topic to look for a question on which roms are the best (like i did) .
My opinion -> CM7 & DarkKnight 4 ICS .

Well if I recall correctly the call pictures were displayed smaller in eclair/froyo/gb than in ICS, quality should be about the same since this is a google problem (afaik).
You customize dialler, boot animation, boot animation sound ( wow ! )

I understand the need to customize some things to gain a good overall layout. But in ICS it all seems pretty good as is, it has a certain charm. Still you could change bootanimation, bootsound ect if u want, it's just not that user friendly (like in miui). And I don't know how many features you are missing in ICS, there are roms with alot of great stuff built in (infinitum ROM does a pretty good job). Hold to close? Also built-in.
Thanks for the reply. ( was'nt really a question but always good to discuss )
You are correct. ICS IS more interesting and the customization in MIUI is not all that needed but if I get MIUI like Contact pics and Stock like Camera with a great zoom ( stock camera is full of options , which we frankly hardly use but...what else can you expect out of a high end phone ? ) I am happy cause isn't ICS supposed to be better then GINGERBREAD ? Cause remember, these phones are not cheap ! So we expect perfection or close to it...And come to think of it , none of my friends complain about anything in thier iPhones ! No heavy customizations but a nice phone. If ICS does not meet my expectations by end of this year I will switch to iPhone.
Thx.

Obviously you haven't ever seen ios. People complaining,because it s so simple and intuitive even on a programming level...not counting that ios remains unchanged through time despite new versions coming out,graphically talking,adding two or three features.if you have a look at android you will notice a big difference between the respective 2, 3, and. 4 firmwares in terms of use and design.ios does not improve but keeps adding features that other phones have already since ever,treating and advertising them as new...I wouldn't buy an iPhone right as I think of it now.

IMHO, iPhone is a phone n Android is a smartphone. iPhone is just too simple.

You are correct when u say I have never used ios. Seen only my friends phone. Never used one myself. In fact, please don't get me wrong - I like the feel of ICS and even my friends do ,who have the iPhones.
But now I sort of feel let down by Android cause they had advertised earlier that a brand new operating system called ICS would be soon released in Nexus with new camera( features like editing, scene modes like never before and quick responsive shutters and so on ) and a great thing like Beam but the introduced version in the Nexus is not all that great ! Speed and other technicals are great no doubt but like for instance TV out in Nexus is not there ! Camera is still better in Galaxy 2. The Contact photos is smudgy and quite ugly. And That is Google's mistake right ? So are customers expected to compromise instead because Google is not giving HD quality pictures in contacts list ? And how do I edit and delete my contacts in a group ? ( multiple contacts delete instead of one by one ) But you see, Gingerbread is providing this feature though ! ( to delete Select All function ) One would say,...but ICS cannot think of everything ! Right.
But isn't ICS an upgrade from Gingerbread ?
I feel ICS are still in the infancy but also feel that too much was promised on the onset and that was not honest of Google. ( please read previous posts of oncoming ICS and it's vast features. And on the other hand see what Nexus has to offer now. Not really the same I must say..
Take care guys, appreciate your inputs !

Hi
i have Samsung GT-I9000, firmware 2.3.3
can i install the ICS?
second where can i find guide with all the links all i need to know and do in order to install it in the easier way
Hi !
To reply to the first letter about aroma installer....i hate this **** ! Did to me too. Same thing. Press the three button, go into download mode and install gingerbread, root it and decide if you want to stay with it or still try other roms. ( ICS is still not 100% stable so I would advice you gingerbread xxjw4 2.3.6 which is good or a custom rom like MIUI stable )
For the next question, do the above and use Odin to download any new version gingerbread.

Cyanogenmod and other roms?

I wish someone would be able to port this onto our devices. Can anyone shed a light regarding this topic please?
Please put all your suggestions and questions here.
The more demand it is, the better. Maybe a developer might get the device and start porting well known roms with native jelly bean? 4.2?
=D I don't want to come across as a leecher, I am just interested in getting to grips with rom'ing and the android way. I don't want to regret getting this device. =)
That is just it, once the dev gets the device then things get ported.
However, I will say that with the latest releases from Samsung (4.1.2 on the 9300, will be with us sooner or later) with the latest additions including Multi Window I am going to stick with the TW framework as I feel these innovations outweigh having a cleaner Android rom. Having had mine for well over a month now and using a Launcher ontop of TW I can honestly say I have not experienced any lag anywhere which is the only reason I would go for a non TW build in the first place.
Just my view, am sure others will feel differently!

That's a good point actually. But I want to be able to try different roms so i can form some sort of opinion. maybe dual boot a stock android based rom like paranoid android, cyanogenmod and a touchwiz based rom to try the note 2 multi window features.

Dual boot! Well that is a completely different ball game!
It would be really a shame if our device wouldn' get any attention. LTE technologie and 2 gigs of ram should be worth developing. I just asked teamhacksung at irc chat if there would be any developing, but the answer was no.
I really hope someone comes up with new ideas and methods (as I am a total noob at this stuff and would sadly never be able to do all the programming).
With all the customisation, kernel and stuff my old sgs1 is almost as fast, if not faster than my sgs3 LTE (apart of booting of course).
Let's get some loving for our black smartphones =]

Its all timing realy, if they had released the 9305 at the same time as the 9300 then most would have opted for the 9305 but they did not and most cannot afford another handset etc... leavign our community pretty small. However the 9305 is now becoming more widely avaialble with sim free retailers starting to stock them soon so things may pick up, you never know!
We may loose out a little here but I guess all we can look farward to is that the next flagship will have the 2gb and probably LTE from the offest.
I have happily been running a ligher rom with a launcher and custom notifications etc... am happy with that, for now anyway!

Yes dont worry about teamhacksung they are in tantrum mode with samsung havent you heard? LOOL Because samsung have not released the sources as of yet. So just hope we have other devs that step on the plate if you want CM10 Which i dont like that much. Or hope samsung releases the codes,
People like cm10 cause its faster UI but have you tried the 4.2 launcher on our phone? i think it Is exactly the same speed UI as CM10 only with less options. So It doesnt take much to get the same smoothness its just that touchwiz has more animations and is much busier then Pure JB... So patience is the key now and we have to wait and see which dev decides to start working
Yeah, my I9305 lay about 2 Days, because my I9000 with the great CM-based Mackay Rom and the fantastic Semaphore Kernel are awesome in speed, look and Features. But S3 with stock not.. But after some reading, I decided to Pandoriam Rom for my S3 and it's great until now. But i miss the simple Grey cm10 Theme, a solid Kernel to set govenours/deep idle and the whole Stuff, the only 3g Option, that gorgeous lockscreen and most Voodoo sound. I hope that will come with time everything.

Need Stable Rom for Samsung Ace

Dear all Developers,
I am using samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 phone.
I Have tried many roms which are there in developers forum list. like Cyanogenmod 7.2, S'Perience rom, SII and others.
Some how I compare this all with the original stock rom I feel the stock is better.
Please note following points which I like to use in phone.
1) It should be fast enough.I know the CPU 800mhz is less but i will like to use most of it with good battery life in my view I feel no change in stock & custom roms
2) Themes, I am getting new ICS Or JB themes in custom roms but that all I get with Holo launcher & ADW launcher without flashing custom roms in stock which for me is fine.
3) I missing Samsung All Share play in custom roms. I need that preferably as I am using my LED TV to view media from my phone over wifi very easily.
4) In some of the custom roms doesn't have Radio apps. I also need this as am using it often. It is there in S'Perience rom but it is very similar to one which is in stock so no need to change as I Feel.
5) Last as I am using my phone very much in terms of calling & messaging through out the day. for that I need very fast running dialer & messaging UI. I had seen the JB dialer which I don't like. S'Periance is looks good but lags in continuous use. Any better option will be appreciate.
I don't want to disappoint the devs as they are working very hard, gr8 & nice jobs. I only want my phone stable in terms of above mentioned requirement. As everybody like new things I also like the new JB or ICS updates but without compromising my requirement.
Giving Very Very Thanks to all who will reply and read my desires. And I will appreciate if anybody can suggest me the rom which fulfill my desire.
Once Again Thank You Very much.

Take a look at this ROM.
Almost double the benchmark of a stock ROM and reliable for daily use (on my gf's phone) with up to 3 days per battery charge.
Seems good one. But is this one has all share play apps? Or is there any other option for that if u know?
Thanks

New Rom Suggestion, Coming from GB

Hello XDA,
It's been a while since I've gone through the whole process of finding a good rom. I'm running Gingerbread still, a variant of DarkyRom_3.4.1 currently. Flash works great. Probably going to miss that. But it's getting slow. I need a reinstall.
Plus, cracked my screen. Bezel edges and corners are also torn up. Paid $140 for new screen and replacement rear back/bezel/case http://www.ebay.com/itm/281265794618?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
So, anybody spend time testing ROMs in the last month? What's new, stable, and clean? I've skimmed the rom list, but nothing beats interactive testing. For looks, I want AOSP but can't decide if I want TW with Apex or Nova, or CM 10.1 like SuperNexus. Trying for speed, fluidity, no bloat.
What have people settled on lately? Opinions are all I ask
How horrible is Flash compatibility now? I tried flash on a Nexus 4 on latest (4.4.2?) and it wouldn't play firstrowsports.eu or projectfree.tv so that's kind of a bummer...
Any suggestions would be great! Don't want to spend a full week testing roms and rewiping my phone..I don't have a second to use while I play with my Note, and I'm kinda busy with work lately to wipe my phone over and over.
Another question while I'm at it... Is a nandroid backup taken with my outdated CWM going to restore OK after I upgrade? Thinking I'll be ok.
Thanks :good:
If you are too lazy to test yourself then stay on stock rom.
Why should other members do the work for you and write here - which is simply a best rom thread and so against XDA rules (reading them might help you).
And: many members who cooked or developed roms spent a lot of time doing this and making good threads, tutorials and instructions. So please use these and pay a little respect to them by doing so.

Thanks for taking the time to tell me I'm lazy. I work hard, thank you very much.
Why should other members "do the work for me"? Well, without trying to justify anything, I've answered questions for other people, simply out of the kindness of my being, just because I know the answer. Last time I put in the effort of testing rom after rom, I shared my knowledge. I'm sure there's other people out there like me. I mean, with your methodology, we should all be told to go Google it...which is akin to telling someone to go shove it.
If you've put in the effort of trying roms, and you have the time to leave me a helpful response, and you don't consider it "working for me", I'd appreciate it.
At the moment im on c-rom kitkat its pretty fast and have alot of options. Its not touchwiz . Everyone has their own likings so flash one if you dont like flash another. End of story. I did what you did before asking for best roms and at the end i pick a rom no one mention in the thread in my own phone

AryaMod v5 TW 4.1.2
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
I've been using the OmniROM variants lately and found them to be slightly faster than TW-based ones. Right now I'm on Asylum OmniROM Naughties 4.4.2 and it's been pretty stable and zippy so far. Battery life is same as with TW. Not sure about Flash compatibility as I don't use it. As for nandroid backups, I recently read that you need to restore using the same kernel/recovery as you used when you made the backup. Not sure if that's true or not, but something to keep in mind if you're jumping from ROM to ROM.
AryaMod 5.5 is the best rom right now and has Flash support enabled by default. Every JB (or even KITKAT) version can handle Flash if you sideload Flash Player apk and a compatible Browser (Like Firefox). The stock, Samsung browser have Flash support enabled without any hack.

Thanks for your reply, as well as the others. I'll be giving AryaMod a go.
I [and many others] really wish samsung would publish the hardware composer and other needed source for AOSP builds....It seems like I keep loving the AOSP interface more. Paranoid is awesome. AOKP helps little things. CM features are also great. Together, perfect.
For me, Stunner 2 is GUI perfect. Functionality missing though. Of course, need that hardware acceleration. Can't use my Vulkano (Hava). Can't watch Top Gear without transcoding from MKV.
On another "note" (no pun intended lol), does anybody know a 5.3" or larger phone that is 100% AOSP friendly?
Xperia Z-Ized this great rom
I have a meaningful update!
I found a new phone, and it's going to be cheap, and very new because it's about to be released.

[WIP] Official jellybean - PICTURES

I just saw this post at http://galaxy-mini-2.blogspot.ro/2013/05/galaxy-mini-2-corriendo-jelly-bean.html
...with this pictures....and OMG IT LOOKS REAL!
LOOK at the ,,grey,, samsung statusbar, and software update icon at notifications !
Also camera icon looks real instead all other icons found in cm themes!
You can also see that statusbar clock is hidden on lockscreen like the official rom!
Also, swipe in contacts to send sms or call is an original samsung feature, absent in cm!
Rom is looking same as galaxy young official rom. Look at memo icon!
This thread is not spam...is based an question>
I need help to figuire out what is that! ..because samsung said that this phone will not get any update from gb.
This is old, confirmed fake, but a very good one.
Someone simple spend waaaaaay too much time hacking an existing CM (10 I believe) to make it look like TouchWiz official.
There will never be official JB for our phone.
Plus, Galaxy Young lags with official JB as TheWhisp confirmed numerous times.
So best thing for our phone is CM 7.2.0.
The one we have currently is done wrong with existing kernel, instead of a new one.

Besides that is a 2012 phone and i think samsung support period expired .
@Andrespro6 I see your thread this
and I found these photos, so, you are the author of it. I just want to know how did you get that ui? What rom is used as base?
Can you share it? Or is just an edited image oppened on phone?
