[REQ] IOS Original OS for Samsung GT I9100

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29390040#post29390040
This is the ROM for Galaxy ACE and Its Superb.
Its a 100% working IOS on Samsung Ace.
Can our Modders and ROM Developers take the challenge in remaking it for us GT I9100 Users?
After watching the Video in Youtube, I bet everyone will need this for once .
Thanks in Advance .
Sunny

/facepalm
Are you kidding me? :what:

1. This is just modded CM7.2 (the outdated Android version)
2. Why the hell would anyone want this? Want iOS? Buy iPhone.

I have a better idea:
- Buy an IPhone 5
- Break the outer shell.
- Put all the parts in a Galaxy S2 body.
- Make cutouts for camera, buttons and ports.
- Use tape to cover the empty space in display.
Voila! You have a S2 running 100% IOS..

Enough of noob bashing guys. If you got nothing useful to reply, STFU and GTFO
@OP
The ROM suggested by you is based on CM7 with iOS theme. You can find similar ones in dev section. Try looking for MIUI or CMMIUI based Roms

You have to admit though. IOS is popular as ever and people who don't know better wish they had an iPhone.
Everyone was q noob once and when the aforementioned people see the light so to speak l, they wont even think of IOS.

This is my ANDROID HISTORY.
Its just about using a ROM, not so much of hassles.
We Buy Android to use anything we feel to use on our devices.
So, TO 2nd , 3rd ,4th and 5th Posters...... I have used 550+ handsets in Life and , my Google Play Store screenshot will show u what I am capable of.
U guys comments made u look like fools.
Grow up, this is ANDROID, the Apple Basher, and using the IOS type on phone means bashing those Iphone users by showing off, who think that their IOS is GOD made OS of the World.
LOL....U guys are Android Users, Grow ur brains cos we are Jelly Bean now.

Thanks a Lot Nitin, People here are also very helpful in nature always but there are always exception to every law, and here we found a few exceptions who are basically behaved like kids.
No Issues, Lets Move on .
My NEW CM 10 theme is making a way to this place here .

Hey sunny if u really want ios in GS2 then here u go..
- Flash MIUI 4
- USE IOS Theme + Icon pack
then your phone will become Ultimate I Phone. Go and try it. I already used it and very impressed with it. See the following video
That video is quiet old with CM7 but now it becomes better with Android ICS

If you want an iPhone your on the wrong site.

@ Atheist.............I guess you again got the first thread in a wrong way. I wanted IOS look on Android being in Android OS itself.

You never said ANYTHING about a "ios look" or it being on "android". What you said was IOS on a Android device, That is very different.
You cant blame people for misunderstanding what you meant if you dont actually write you you mean. :silly:

There is no need for overclocking cause 832mhz processor is enough for galaxy y to perform smoothly.... its the ram is should be concerned about
And also the internal mem
So if u want to make ur apps perform better they should be in internal..... so just start linking to SD .. apps will run faster

How is linking helping the ram?

Galaxy y hardware

Hi friends..i actually had a question in mind but have made this thread just for the motive of discussion.
My question is a simple yet serious one Why do you guys think that Samsung added POTENTIALLY strong hardware in our phones at this price range..like our cpu and gpu are quite capable of beating the pulp out of many phones in the higher price range! Also a few days back i saw a thread with one of our fellow members bringing forth the fact that our wifi chipset is also quite advance compared to what we are seeing..so basically wanted to know your opinions..

well Galaxy Y is made for low price range and Samsung Limited the power of hardware's inside our Y.
From what I think its possible in the future we can able to unlock the full potential of our phones because our GPU is based on VideoCore IV which they are able to play HD but samsung and broadcom limited it. hopefully soon we are able to see our SGY playing heavy games and HD videos in future
Regards, Kamijou

U should have read that entire thread I explained how the SGY sucks in it

yes..i know..but i've read most of the comments on the madteam development forum where someone(dont remember) had stated that our device is an ldpi device and having HD stuff will not affect the visuals as such(as per what i interpreted)

What he means is that it screen resolution is only 240x320 so we cannot show anything over that resolution

U will again have to choose from them just like u choose from results
So try them by yourself and decede which is best

First phone I installed a new FW on was my Ericsson T68 when they had the joint venture with Sony and released the T68i FW, I tend to play a bit. I will try and stay on the stock ROM for as long as possible but.....

Welcome aboard, enjoy the Nexus4 Android badboy!

There is slight heating problem you may feel as you are moving from iPhone to android
However, custom ROMs and Google support will make it useful

I think heating problems will be the least of my problems!
I do like iOS because most things work and don't need customization. I like the idea of Android because you can get it to do anything you want, I have wasted far to much of my life messing with phone's FW but have gad a break, now to waste a lot more time methinks.

I would suggest to root first and then stay stock.
Cause if you do later then you will have the hassle of saving your data.

Check if your device has light bleed, gaps, moving parts, or cracks

And don't get shocked by the display colors. You can easily adjust them with root and a kernel which supports gamma control.

1) Be prepared with your Google account.
2) Log in www.gmail.com --> Click Left corner "Gmail" text and choose "Contacts".
3) In "Contacts" click on "More" --> "Import..." and choose your exported iPhone contacts from www.icloud.com
4) After the import you may want to try..."More" ---> "Find and merge duplicates". This will be the view on your Phone's phonebook. You can manage it from your PC (www.gmail.com) or just from your Android phone.
Turn on your phone and follow the welcome assistance, enter your Google Account with all your contacts already loaded.
Now you are ready to start exploring.......(Update to latest version...if any....try Google "Keep" for Notes...update apps with Play Store...etc).
I'm helping a friend who is coming from iPhone (he had iPhone 1 and iPhone 4) to Android...He will start with a cheap Skyrocket (Galaxy S2 4.5'' AT&T dual core 1Gb ram and a good camera sensor) with 4.2.2 stock (non-samsung) Android called CyanogenMOD.
So i did this with him.
P.S: You may want to disable GPS, NFC, Google maps location settings (Report from this device & Enable location history), Cell broadcasts, in order to save more battery.
If you want to ROOT your Nexus 4 (have administrator rights for your device) please consider that you first will need to "Factory Reset / Wipe" all your Phone (because you need to unlock the bootloader first and that action wipes your Nexus data)..
So...i recommend to do this first. (But it's going to be premature for you....).
And..you can't compare Root with Jaiilbreaking....because "root" concept it's simpler. JB it's another thing....completely different.
I hope it helps...
