Well i will share my knowladge to you people, two years of learning stuff about android....
This is only guide for porting nexus s roms to sgs phones, you cannot use this guide to port other rom to other device, well you can but dosnt ensurance that it will work.
If this guide dont help you (0,01 possibilities) LOGCAT YOUR BUILD!! I WILL TRY TO HELP
Tools needed /by saranhai/:
7zip (alternative to winrar, doesn't matter which you choose to use)
Notepad++ (highly recommend if you're on windows)
Android SDK/ADB (MUST HAVE, for troubleshooting and such)
dsixda kitchen (could come in handy)
First to port an ics rom you need winrar.
This are the steps:
grab an ics rom like cm9 or aokp to take the libs and hw folders
Never unzip the rom.
1-from cm9/aokp copy all outside system, i mean boot.img mtd etc..... and past it over the rom you are porting (nexus s rom)
2-enter system/app and remove torch.apk, crespoparts.apk and replace camera.apk with aokp camera.
3-enter system bin and replace this files with aokp/cm9 ones
*dhcpcd
*bluetoothd
*vold
*wpa_client
*wpa_supplicant
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4-enter system etc and replace this files with aokp/cm9 ones
*bluetooth folder
*dhcpcd folder
*Apnconf.xml
*wifi
*vold.fstab
*vold.conf
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5-Then we go to the libs, enter system/lib and replace:
*HW folders
*modules folders
*egl folders
*libril.so
*libsec-ril.so
*libreference-ril.so
*libsec-ril-client.so
*libbluedroid.so
*libbluetooth.so
*libbluetoothhd.so
*lib_cameraclient.so
*libcameraservice.so
*libhardware_legncy.so (very important to wifi to work) hell this caused me problems
*libEGL
*libgles (the 3 files)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
--------------replace usr and vendor folders-------------------
And last edit build.prop, well first check if it boots then you change this and add this.
edit this:
ro.product.model=SGH-I897
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=SGH-I897
ro.product.device=SGH-I897
ADD THIS TO SIGNAL TO WORK!!
additional build propieties
ro.telephony.ril_class=SamsungRIL
ro.telephony.ril.v3
=icccardstatus,datacall,signalstrength,facilitylock
mobiledata.interfaces=pdp0,eth0,gprs,ppp0
ro.ril.hsxpa=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
ro.adb.qemud=1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ADVANCED USERS ONLY (dont ask me how) :
for working external sd (emcc) you need to decompile/recompile framework-res.apk
you need to change this:
xml/storage_xml with other storage xml from aokp or cm9
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I´m not responsible for bricked devices (this shouldnt brick it) but i dont want anyone crying because i will laugh at you, it works for me..
Libs functions
Lib:
*Libhardware_legancy.so (makes wifi works)
*all libs with ril: DATA and SIGNAL
*LibEGL, modules, hw: hw aceleration, lights,etc...
*Libgles (i suppose this ones controlls battery stats and consuption)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
etc:
*apns-conf.xml (all related to apn and services)
*dchcpd,vold.ftsab,vold.conf: internal sd
*wifi,bluetooth: wifi bluetooth lol

I was actually trying to get cyberGR working, the updater.script is different from normal. May be not having these could be the issue. Just a guess though

package_extract_file("updater.sh", "/tmp/updater.sh");

The directions are not very clear.

Does this mean Extract /system/lib/HW folder and all files under /system/lib from the Captivate ICS cm9/AOKP and put into the Nexus S rom.zip?
2-enter system/app and remove torch.apk, crespoparts.apk and replace camera.apk with aokp camera.
Click to expand...

This seems very easy, remove the listed files from the Nexus S rom.zip and add the Camera.apk from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip
Steps 3,4,5 seems very easy also, take listed files from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip and move them into the Nexus S rom.zip. Then we take /system/usr and /system/vendor from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip and move to the Nexus S rom.zip.
Last is editing the build.prop file.
Advanced step, I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511730 which could mean editing the storage_xml will be easier.
Is that about everything needed?

Here's a script I've built for my own ROM cooking purpose
another purpose was to create a very easy to read script, so everyone can understand the magic of deodex
had some hard time figuring all the BOOTCLASSPATH and all the signing magic (if you want to do it manually, the secret is: don't pack and sign!, just add the classes.odex to the original jar or apk...whatever...
or use my script to automagically do all that)
after one brick and jtag reincarnation and a few bootloops
I present to you:
DEODEXERIOUS !! (the only spartan deodex script)
requirements:
Linux
zip
* tested on my Ubuntu 10.10
instructions:
1. extract the included script
2. put the content of system(including the system folder) inside the rom folder
actually you can create a folder named system inside the rom folder and copy framwork and app folder there, it does not require any other files from the rom
3. while in the console inside the extracted script directory execute from the console
Code:
./deodexrom.sh
4. wait and watch the console for errors (there shouldn't be any)
5. when it is done, you should find the deodexed files inside the deodexed folder
* if you want to start over just execute from the same place in the console
Code:
./cleanall.sh
tested and successfully deodexed:
I897 UCKB1
I9088 KP2
I9088 ZNKP5
I9000 XXJPY
I9000 XWJS3
I9000 XWJS5
I9000 ZSJPG
I9000 XWJV1 2.3.2, except email.apk
it does not support already deodexed rom's!!! (why should it?)
if you test other raw versions (even captivate ones) please inform the result, or problems found, I'll do my best to help
careful
the script is a very initial version
it does inform errors human readable so watch the console for them
oh! almost forgot , here's the script:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3595341/deodexerious/deodexerious_03.zip
change log:
04/03/2011 - deodexerius_03
added gingerbread XWJV1 2.3.2 - custom classpaths
smali and baksmali 1.2.6
case insensitive classpath helpers
note:
deodexerius can deodex all XWJV1 2.3.2, except email.apk
27/02/2011 - deodexerius_02
better support for the additional files in kp5 and kp2
good luck!!

To deodex a single app, you need to keep the deodexed framework files around. Then you can just do that app by pulling the code bits out of the framework.

I am use the same KB1 that hit the forums yesterday that i4ackback stated that works for him. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 and installed Java from the software manager, not sure if its the right one. I started copying the full system folder but ended up only extracting just app and framework just like the OP states. That message appears throughout the process but I end up with everything in the deodexed folder.

I enjoy giving back to this community so I am going to do so in another way - its not a groundbreaking ROM or anything but just something small and helpful
When I flash between ROMs, there are little things I want to change (like the bootanimation, font's, etc) so I made my own update.zip with everything I want in it. It's not very hard to do, but it might be helpful for others.
So, if you would like me to make you your own customized .zip, just post in here telling me what you would like. Now, I'm a nice guy, but I don't want to go fishing for what you want. You need to post links to things and specify exactly what you'd like. It can be pretty much anything that you can currently flash in recovery and maybe even more (nothing comes to mind right now)
I don't know if there will be alot of interest in this or not, but just be patient and I will get you your .zip And this seems like the right place to post this, but if a mod feels it would be better elsewhere, feel free to move it.

A great tool for creating an update.zip. The hard part is the updater-script. One slightly wrong thing and the .zip won't flash. I would recommend looking at the updater-script located in /META-INF/com/google/android/ of any flashable .zip for the EVO. Here is an example from my zip...
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
ui_print("");
set_progress(1.000000);
ui_print("Derek's Customization Pack");
show_progress(0.500000, 20);
ui_print("");
ui_print("Replacing boot animation...");
sleep(1);
show_progress(0.500000, 40);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
show_progress(0.500000, 80);
ui_print("");
ui_print("Replacing font...");
sleep(1);
ui_print("");
ui_print("Extracting customized build.prop...");

unmount("/system");

Replace the Launcher2.apk
I would like a .zip that will replace the Launcher2.apk in CM7 with the modified Launcher2.apk from SalvageMod. I'm hoping to get landscape functionality of the homescreen and app drawer.
Note: I use Frank707's zip to remove ADW and go back to the stock launcher.
Much thanks for taking the time to do something like this. The SalvageMod launcher should be attached.
Instead of delete all I would like a .zip that will quickly wipe the cache an delvik cache in one go in the recovery.
That would be really helpful.
All the .zips are done and in the OP. Let me know if you have any issues

Why wouldn't you just install an app while the phone was running?? I don't understand that at all. And it wouldn't be possible to make it universal, I'd have to make you a zip with the apps you want in it. But again, why not just install them with the phone running?

Yeah I know they're apks and they can be side loaded, but with how many there are, it'd be easier to just let recovery take care of it.
Super much appreciated and you couldn't have asked at a better time
Awesome, thanks! Flashing now.

Ok I get ya now, how about titanium backup free to go with it? Those are always 2 apps I need on a new ROM but let me know.
Hi guys, last days i got messages about a guide port miui4 to each device.
that is my method i use on my miui4 ports.
take a any cm9 or aosp based ics rom as base. with this guide, you can port miui4 from any device to your one. for best compatibility use own brand base to port. if you have desire s then port from htc devices. if galaxy nexus then try port from nexus s
first of all replace complete folders with miui4 one.
system/app
system/framework
copy libandroid_runtime.so lib from miui 4 (rom you port). without this file rom will not boot. if you get bootloop, try with base libandroid_runtime.so file..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
replace media folder with base rom (that themes, wallpaper, audio from miui work)
copy telocation.db and yellowpage.db to /system/etc folder.
copy content-types.properties file to /system/lib
copy invoke-as from miui4 rom to /system/xbin and give it permissions on updater-script

if your base rom has issues, these issues will seen on this port too. example, if camera not works on base rom, then will on miui4 port also not work!
then add your stuff (updated apps, wallpaper or installer whatever you want )
make your zip and there is it. if you open your thread, dont forget give a link to based ics and port rom's.
that is method actually i use. for more info please use search on xda or ask on this thread. no private messages will answered from now.
(if you like this guide, just give 5 star and click to thanks button)

I can't say anything about ldpi and mdpi devices. Miui is designed for hdpi devices. This guide is for hdpi devices only..
Some guys got it working on Mdpi devices with resizing but i don't know how's.

Its for advanced users, you should better leave it before you do something wrong and write here in the thread that you fried your Phone.
No offense.
Any idea if this should work on CAF ICS roms? Took a quick attempt without success, libdvm.so was failing in a bootloop - needed phone so didn't investigate much further.
How to port Sense.
Source: http://forums.androidcentral.com/optimus-v-rooting-roms-hacks/164989-guide-how-i-port.html (second post)
This is NOT my guide, just posting it here!
This is a very difficult process that I hope you'll understand.
First step is to find a device that is preferably VERY similar to your device, in this instance I guess we would use the htc thunderbolt, which I've been told multiple times that it is used for the MT.
You're going to want to use CM7 for parts. Simple enough.
I will be referring the Sense ROM to SENSE and CM7 as BASE to simple things up. So remember that.
When I say replace, I would recommend deleting from one and adding it with the other
Open up Sense and Base in different windows.
Put in the boot.img from Base into Sense (make sure you put the original boot.img in some other place that you'll remember)
go into /system/usr on both
replace keylayouts and keychars from Base into Sense (this is just your keys)
download dsixda's kitchen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246)
Get the ROM you have so far set up in it and what not (I'm a little fuzzy at this part)
Once you get done with that, run the menu in terminal and navigate your way to decompile the boot.img (action key- "a") and then run the same thing except run the action key "w" to decompile the original boot.img. So the key here is to decompile both boot.img's.
Go into the ramdisk on both and go into init.rc
THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IN THIS (THE MATTER OF BOOT AND BOOTLOOP) IS THE LINE
"export BOOTCLASSPATH" near the top. It will have a bunch of lines after it. Now in the Base's boot.img, delete this whole line. Replace it with the lines from Sense's boot.img.
Now you can add anything else you want that looks like it belongs (preferably anything sense related)
Don't recompile the boot.img yet.
Now we add a2sd. To do this, just follow this guide (https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=158823170833688)
The only thing you do in there is the edits to the init.rc, don't listen to the decompiling/recompiling mentions. Now you can go back into the menu for the kitchen and recompile the boot.img (action key - "b"). Now don't compile the WHOLE ROM, just take the new boot.img in working_** and put it into the Sense zip.
Now you're going to want to download my ROM (sorry, just don't feel like uploading each individual file) http://gannon5197.blogspot.nl/2012/03/got-sense-booted.html
And go into the /system/bin on both
these are the files you're going to need: a2sd, bash, apps2sd.hlp, busybox.a2sd, chka2sd, jita2sd, launcha2sd, starta2sd, and maybe possibly sh (try once without it)
And you're going to want to set permissions for each one of these in the updater-script (look at mine for references)
Now also look at my zip and you'll see move_cache_sd. Put that in yours and set permissions for it in updater-script (use mine for references)
After that, the other stuff is mainly just getting rid of all the bloatware, (look in /system/app and /system/media) I wouldn't delete any libs as of right now. If you try to flash it and it reboots recovery then it is too big.
If it is too big, you're probably going to want to move a lot of the apps to data. To do this, just make a file called data/app/put_your_apps_here on the root of the zip. You're going to have to set permissions for it in the updater-script, but use the test.zip I sent you in the original.
This will most likely get you booted. Nothing will likely work. Which is expected. If you have any problems, just use logcat. It will be your bestfriend. Have fun porting

should come in handy sometimes
someone has to do this for the Galaxy S2.
Will it also work for ICS ROMs?
I must do this. Anybody know where I can get the firmware for the One S?
Can i use a Gingerbread ROM as a base instead of cm7?
Hello for lg p500 there is 2 sense rom but data and mic not working in both rom can you help to solving that problems????btw great tutorial.
in fact sensse porting is differnet from the tutorial showed it is a little bit more difficult and there are some libs needed that there is only for the devices you are porting to. so a general tread will not really work

TROUBLESHOOTING AFTER SUCCEFULL PORT
After a succefull port also there can be many bugs present which has to soved logically
here are somethings which can help in DEBUGGING
1) IF GALLERY FC :
open the system/framework and find framework-res.apk file[can use any extracting app]
in both the roms and go to res folder then to xml subfolder and copy and replace the storage_list.xml file from source to port rom
( framework-res.apk\res\xml\storage_list.xml)
Porting Wallpapers | Lockscreen Wallpapers | bootanimation
Usually you get a wallpaper/bootanimation that doesn't fit your device. Here's a quick tutorial on how to port it to your device.
Download & Install FreeImageConverter then launch it.
For Wallpapers & Lockscreen Wallpapers:
Click Add Folder... and add the folder were the wallpapers are
Then click Advanced Convert...
Select Exact Size and set the image quality to 100
Set your Width and Height resolutions for your device.
Uncheck Add "Converted by www.freeimageconverter.com"
Select Leave the same file name and leave the Postfix & Prefix empty. Then set your output in a folder.
For bootanimation:
Extract /system/media/bootanimation.zip OR /data/local/bootanimation.zip OR /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip (For Oxygen ROM, the bootanimation is built into the framework-res)
Do the steps above
Move the new resized folder(s) into your bootanimation workspace
Edit the desc.txt to match your device resolutions
Zip the contents ( folder_name desc.txt )
Set compression method to Store
Delete the extracted bootanimation files
Make sure this new bootanimation.zip is in PORTED

i had tried this method more then 4 times but it didnt worked....
rom is not booting up and its stucked on boot animation and shows no progress although i left it for an hour but still stucked....
any idea??
and for details...
i am porting chameleon OS built for htc one s just see this....-
android v is 4.2.2
so i used aokp 4.2.2(stable) first as base rom but i failed more then 2-4 times then i tried cm10.1 as base rom but still i am at bootanimation.
i had also used the three libs from the port rom and base rom as mentioned in the guide but still nothing is going good......:crying:

Good evening to all, first of all thanks for the guide.
The rom part, it works most of the things, porting is a rom for nexus 5 to take on g2.
I have problems with wifi, vpn and security in the setting menu.
Practically the vpn and security go on crash, while the wifi is active but can not find anything.
Do you have suggestions?
thanks
Sorry for my bad english

it would only b possible if you could get a logcat about the problem,, and if the problem persist in the base rom,then its sure to be in ur port too,
