Rom Port Request Thread

Hey, guys! I'm making this thread because I will continue to port roms, but only if it is requested. As you can see I've been on a porting spree but now I want you guys to let me know what rom to port (if any). My ports are solely made to provide the experience of a rom until the owner/dev team of that rom officially supports us. All requests that I post will now be permitted by the owner/s. If I am not allowed, i will let you know here.
So if there is a rom you would like ported, leave a comment and I (and perhaps xcoNjA) will do my best to bring it for you. Thanks guys - Michael
****The rom needs to have the same resolution as the S4 and also an arm7 processor...might be able to do it with an arm6 but yeah (so basically, any rom that works on a different S4 I can almost guarantee it can be ported****

JellyBomb from the S3!

Just ran it... I installed it and restored apn's and its good to go. I flashed ktoonsez new TW kernel with it. Man this rom flies.
Edit: One thing though, you lose lte with a reboot and cant get it back until you on a Sprint rom and update prl and profile.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium

Thanks again for all the ports. I think I'm less interested in new ports and more interested in the stability of the ones we already have, And don't get me wrong. They're running great already. At this point, if we're able to get 3g and 4g, along with mms working like a stock rom, then I will definitely use them as daily drivers.
Thanks again for bringing some fun to the Sprint forum in the last week.

Josh will never let that one fly.

I know this is asking a TON, but Firefox OS would be absolutely awesome to try on this phone. Mozilla has some documentation on how to build it, but I am not advanced enough quite yet.
Not really expecting data to work, of course. Just a proof of concept and actually trying it on phone software would be awesome.
Then again, I could be completely off base and it could be impossible to flash like you would an android ROM. Who knows.

What happened to all these great Roms we were supposed to get?

Just curious where all these Roms for our Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 are?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda premium

We have lots of them ..which "great one " are you waiting for :what:

Seems like many of the DEVs have left Sprint for Verizon and/or decided they like their Note2's better.A lot of the rest all seem to be obsessed with AOSP/AOKP/CM Roms despite the fact that it removes most of the functionality that makes this phone great.
Unfortunately the blind hatred of TouchWiz for no good reason is hurting this phone.

Learn to build your own rom.

Ya on all the aosp the cameras are not even close to the stock one"unless there is a stock camera apk .".I see your point.. really haven't looked at it like that..that being said I would still never go back .pacman with faux =:beer::beer:

There are as many good roms for the Sprint version as there are for the others. Also, you guys should feel lucky that that Sprint has felt charitable enough to not lock this device down like Verizon and AT&T have as devs are indeed leaving those versions even as we speak.....

I don't even think I have seen a single Dev from either the epic touch community or gs3 go from sprint to Verizon.I've seen ATT and T-Mobile. Anyways we have many great devs in our community. And you can't expect every single one that you like to get the same phone as you. Since we don't all have upgrades at the same time. Some may have used it on a gs3 and now can't upgrade until gs5 or simply don't have the money to upgrade. We are all regular people. My guess is that by black Friday time we will have many more devs come over. This happened with the gs3. The number of Roms jumped a lot from what I remember since some people were able to get the gs3 for a penny with an upgrade.
And since when is there a blind hatred for touch wiz. Over the past two years I have seen more people prefer Touchwiz Roms over AOSP based. Easy comparison, check the number of posts and views of all aosp based Roms to that of touchwiz. And tell me which one has more. This goes for the sprint gs3 as well. From my view Touchwiz is the most stable and fully functional ROM for Samsung phones.

We have solid roms. Also take note this phone is still fairly new. Another thing to remember is that many people use stock rooted since this phone provides a rock solid experience. We got official cm support pretty much at launch the s2 never was like that

Too bad Calkulin went to another carrier.

Team Kang, while continuing efforts on 4.3 is also hard at work trying to get even a booting build of 4.4.
This is where I need Sprint folks to come in and help.... since my other half will no longer give up the S4.

Until you see it on XDA do not assume it's a daily/stable build!

He stated this is early developement. And it should boot for other variants but not to expect data/voice. If you aint gonna test and point out the problems yourself and rely on others then dont post anything really.

I did test. Booted but not data or voice. When I had posted my question no one had said different. Nor did he say that data and voice didn't work for sure. Just said not to expect it. Which means possibility of not working. Sorry if my question was ignorant. But I just didn't want to report obvious things.

I'm asking because each variant has slight changes and I need to coordinate those with the dev spearheading the S4/S3 bringup for 4.4. Those logs, even if redundant, may help identify something. In short, I'd rather have too many logs than none.
I'll continue to share any updates on other variants as applicable with each build. Should give a close expectation of ours. And I got upset because a fair expectation was given on these builds... and yet it was still asked. I'll apologize for being excessive in my response, but my point still stands as detailed in this post.

Pretty good @garwynn . Data works , voice and location services the basics are there . I've had some random reboots and there is a roaming indicator in the status bar , root is broke
and in networks there is no automatic i.e 3G, LTE and 2G . Sorry I can't get a logcat right now , I'm working no a thesis and its taking up the majority of my time .

It works ????? only thing I had a reboot and hotspot didn't work but over all calls work text work didn't get to try mms cuz still at work and hopefully when I get home I can give u a logcat bro

I tried to download the newest one, but kept getting unsuccessful. Will try again. Very anxious to see what this performs like.
Edit1: I finally got it to download. Everything seems to work except camera and MMS. Camera will open when first booted but after first use it seems to not connect. And if you try to take a pic through SMS it does the same thing. I'll put logcat up after I finish installing windows onto my laptop. Also idk if anyone has been using a gapps. But I flashed one I found and it seemed to fix the su root issue.
Edit2: Just realized that SD card wont mount either. Don't know if its the card or not, but I do know it does mount with PAC man rom

3G/LTE seem unstable. But working
Selecting a Wallpaper is broken. Because after swiping around and click the wallpapers, it will reboot.
SMS only works with Wifi disabled.
Do we have any Gapps we can use on this?
Also pulled just a error log during a part of my testing. I don't think it will help much but its less junkfilled then verbose log. I could do a debug log if needed.
I'll PM it to you.

It just sucks....

Don't get me wrong. I LOVE this phone! And love and respect everyone who is working on getting the boot loader unlocked and etc. But it just flat out sucks LG is being so stubborn about it. I mean come on they release this kick ass, powerful ass, unique 1st of its kind phone, but keep the 1 thing on lock down that could sky rocket it to fame. Just imagine how much more popular and how much more money LG would get if this beast was free to play with!
I haven't lost hope can't wait for the miracle to happen, just sucks LG isn't helping.

And can we quit with the useless threads making? Like seriously there's been so many repeats or useless threads about the same topic and such I'm tired of coming on here hoping to find either good news or some kind of useful information about the device but instead its getting cluttered with threads like this one. You could have gone in a thread where the topic is about loki and express your feelings there about how sucks it is even though some of us probably wouldn't have cared but it could have saved you from creating this useless thread.

Having an unlocked bootloader would do nothing for the sales of this phone. The majority of people have no clue what a bootloader is, or have a need to flash anything. LG will make it's decisions based on those people not people on XDA. I do wish LG would jump on the Dev Edition bandwagon, at least give me the option to pay more to do whatever I want to my phone.

Being a flash whore I kind of like taking a break and getting things done. lol

I love flashing as well but i have root and i guess i can make it the way i want lol but still don't feel the same..
Sent from my LG-LS995 using Tapatalk

I still have yet to root this phone, lol! Sometimes just need to enjoy something for what it is and it does that quite well.
Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk

My line about making more popular is on the basis is look at the people already wanting to switch because it's still locked. And I know it wouldn't be a tremendous difference. But you can't tell me with our community as big as it is that not being able to flash and etc isn't impacting domes wants to keep or get this phone. And if you find my thread useless don't read or comment.
For the exploit that's being tested, that's all models US etc? Last I heard or read was only the Korean had successful cwm and twrp running?

There are parts of me that wishes I never started flashing in the first place, Very addicting! But it's too late for that now, I'm hooked forever. It's very good news to hear that somebody is possibly close to a solution. It's sad but I'm already seeking for somebody to trade me their note 3.

Lg make such good products, but hoping about them for updates in a reasonable time is like an utopia ...

About time the a moderator/moderators do something about all of the pointless KitKat threads, jeesh, I was beginning to think we didn't have any mods for our Flex.
Anyways, since my thread was closed (even though I posted in the correct section) i'll repost the pictures. Apparently, mattwheat says that you can get this version of kitkat at Walmart, so I guess if you want KitKat on your G Flex, go to walmart. I'm sure it's compatible with every varient of the G Flex. Post pictures of KitKat on your Flex if your lucky enough to get it lol. :highfive: :good:

I don't see the exact version that I have, but they should be the same and compatible with every variant of the G Flex. Root works for me, you literally just put it on your phone, it will melt in your hand if you hold it too long though, its one of those annoying bugs that haven't been removed yet. :highfive:

There's nothing to be sorry about, the KitKat threads were getting out of hand and really annoying. I just made mine for sh*ts and giggles, everyone can use a good laugh now and then. I know mods are busy and have lives of there own, but I was just surprised at how long it took for them to do something about the threads. I know that we can report threads, but I'm not going to sit here and do their job or make it any easier for them.
No hard feeling towards any members or mods, I was just trying to make others laugh and smile. Now let's focus back on getting this dang phone a custom recovery and Roms.

I rooted my flex. Then as i was rooting it, it was downloading. Kk. When my root rebooted, the update started. When i came atop, i had both. I used titanium this morning to remove the bloat ware. I got the flex around 5pm yesterday so i haven't had time to use a lot of root apps yet.

This makes no sense phonetically at all. If you're attempting to help people, please put it into a coherent sentence structure that we can follow.
Anyways, my question is this. For those of you who have successfully updated, what was the exact process? Leave out any details that don't matter (i.e, when you got your flex.)
Post step by step details.
So what it looks like is multiple people had the update downloading. Then before they went to reboot for the update, they rooted with ioroot. When ioroot rebooted the phone, it processed the upgrade and kept root. Is that correct?

Here are the exact steps i used to update and retain root. I restored to factory, rooted with ioroot, took the ota.

Anyone have the 600+Mb file download, install, and still was 4.2.2 ls995vz3.
It's like the update didn't do anything, and now when I click to check it says I'm updated? :banghead:

I was rooted and had the same thing happen. I had to flash back to stock unrooted and then I was able to do the update properly. Had to clear the google services framework though to get the update to show up.

N still rooted?

About time the a moderator/moderators do something about all of the pointless KitKat threads, jeesh, I was beginning to think we didn't have any mods for our Flex.
Anyways, since my thread was closed (even though I posted in the correct section) i'll repost the pictures. Apparently, mattwheat says that you can get this version of kitkat at Walmart, so I guess if you want KitKat on your G Flex, go to walmart. I'm sure it's compatible with every varient of the G Flex. Post pictures of KitKat on your Flex if your lucky enough to get it lol. :highfive: :good:

Yeah but you should see the bloat in the Walmart version. But it does have the "Rollback" apk . And self checkout. But I believe its a requirement to wear sweat pants and a dirty Garfield sweatshirt while using it. (Or mullet).
