Definitely not impossible, but unlikely that someone will put in the work to make the ported rom work 100% on this phone. Lots of hacks have to be done because of the proprietary stuff included with roms like sense and tw.

True, but for the past Nexus, there were SP many ROMs ported from many phones.

There were no Sense ROMs ported for the Galaxy Nexus and a poorly done TW one

I've ported Sense to Galaxy S2 a while ago. Nothing is impossible..

I'll, when I'll feel like it.

There is LG optimus g port in really pre alpha version right now. Looks pretty cool but no internet connection and a lot of things are broken and also the dev who ported the ROM over to nexus 4 bricked his phone so no progress has been made since then.
What does this proof? The fact that port is not impossible but requires a lot of work and a lot of stuff can be broken.

That's cause the Nexus One was basically an HTC Desire so had the same hardware. It was easy to port...

[REQ] PARANOIDANDROID Port?

This ROM is very unique and practically one of a kind, my question is: is anyone (or even the creator himself) willing to port this over to the crespo and crespo4g? I realize how much of a screen size difference between the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S/4G is, and I know that it won't be completely the same, but isn't it worth a try? The tablet mode mod is cool and all but everything is so small and practically unreliable. Hybrid mode, however, is completely different.

Can it be done?

that is freaking awesome! come on devs, please set up to the plate
I'd be willing to donate once this is ported!
I'd agree. This would be pretty epic.
Yes this would be something refreshing.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2
I thought this would have been asked already. It definitely looks nice. I am pretty sure the original dev will help with info as long as proper credit is given
love this rom
i am more than willing to donate a cool amount of cash to see this as a working rom .
Is it more different than tablet UI than? Looks the same?

Is a "Sense" ROM for Nexus 4 likely??

Not sure if this question has been answered yet or if there's already something in the works.
Has anyone heard or know of a Sense ROM thats being ported to the N4?
I do prefer AOSP over Sense any day but I love variety and switch it up up every now and then. Not to mention that I would love to see how the N4 handles it with its 4 cores and all..
Feel Free to post any Links, Rumors, Opinions, and/or leads on other similar topics.
With release of HTC M7 around the corner hopefully that will strike a match on Sense for N4!!
Thanks for your interst.
It would take an enormous amount of effort from a developer and there's pretty much no demand. So no there won't be a sense rom.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Yes it's totally possible. G1, G2, and Nexus one all had Sense roms despite being shipped with Vanilla Android. Sadly no devs here appear interested in porting Sense but, hopefully they'll port Sense 5.0. My only concern is that all the devices I mentioned I had were HTC and well they shared drivers with sister devices and this could mean a port will be challenging...

I believe you are incorrect. There is a demand for the sense rom. ATM their is not a version we can port effectively until sense 5 drops.

Lucky for you, no one is forcing you to. I've seen a lot of useless, provocative comments, but yours was special.
Don't get your hopes up. The Galaxy Nexus got a Sense 4 ROM but it was pre alpha and the project stopped fairly quickly as there wasn't much demand. (I mean, this is a Nexus, amirite???? AOSP is what most people want)

What ppl don't understand is that it's nice having options. Sure a majority of ppl prefer AOSP over Sense, but if one gets bored they have something new to try out & tweak. Whether it's Sense, TouchWiz, or MotoBlur.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
The Nexus one had the same hardware as the HTC desire, barring different partitions and trackball. It was easy to port sense for that thing. Will be a lot harder on this phone.

It may be so but if a developer won't get as much audience compared AOSP then there's not much point in continuing and refining the ROM (squashing bugs etc). I wouldn't mind using a Sense port, and there is a good chance someone will take on the challenge, but it will likely get close to using as a daily driver.
*not get close. Lol sorry

If you run it, you're going to get a brick. it's not meant for the Nexus 4. You can't run a older OS on a newer device that absolutely has no support for it.

I have a Perfect Solution for you.
Just sell out your device and purchase 5 Samsung Galaxy Y (S5360) Devices. You could use GingerBread as well and YOU WILL HAVE 5 PHONES AT A TIME.

if you can write the drivers for the n4 and 2.3, and port 2.3 to the n4, then you can run 2.3 on the n4. drivers for the n4/2.3 dont exist, so you would have to write them yourself.

Nexus 4 Galaxy S4

Hi there I have a Nexus 4 , but before I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 , I kinda miss the Touchwizz features and apps
So I wanted to ask if is there any dev who want to try port Touchwiz Framework to Nexus 4!
This way we could have almost a Galaxy S4 with less resolution !
Your asking in vain here.

First why would you even want TouchWiz? I mean... nothing beats the slick look of a clean nexus
But I've read a topic about this I think, is this what you're looking for? Do note that you need CM for this to work

Then sorry to say but it's just a cheapass who buys a Nexus in the hope to get the same thing as a device nearly double in price...
And then still, TouchWiz, rly :/ Personally I'd go for the theme cause... you can delete a theme

Not likely possible as if someone wants stock android, they'll flash a custom ROM. (A custom ROM close to stock android).
