Hey guys, this is kind of a silly question knowing that the two devices (i9500 and i9505) have different processors and graphic cards but is it even possible to port the i9505 custom roms to the i9500?
Developer Question: How hard would it be if possible to port it and how hard would it be to make the rom compatible for both devices?
Thanks in Advance
Stay Cool:d
Dude ure in the wrong section. This belongs in Q&A sections.

has been asked too many damn times. To answer your question, been almost 3 months and there are no ports of CM yet on the octa variant. I didn't need to be a dev nor a rocket scientist to figure it out

Hi all,
I am looking to upgrade my Galaxy i9000, and looking for a phone with an equivalent DAC. Is it confirmed that the Galaxy S4 i9500 Octa core version ships with the Wolfson DAC?
If yes, has Supercurio said anything about starting development on this platform? I don't see anything on his tweets, was wondering if he has posted any news here.

Have been searching, but haven't come across any report of Voodoo sound for the i9500. Has Supercurio started development?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
IMHO: no voodoo sound in perseus kernel..let me know.
For in ear sound ,one of the best is lidroid kerndel with omega 14.1.
Tks gio.
I understand that it is not yet available for even the S3? Has SC stopped the development of Voodoo sound?

Hi guys,
Did anyone hear any new on this? Seems that development for i9500 hasn't even started?
Hi Friends,
Is possible in future (development and research) transform regular 9505 in 9505G, not only ROM ports. Or they have hardware differences?
I'm referring to support the (amazing) commands in fastboot fo Nexus Devices.
PS.: Sorry my badly english.
correct me if I'm wrong but the bootloader is different on the G so probably not.

Totally different partitions etc etc. But there's some genius devs out there so maybe! It's a pretty long shot though, don't hold your breath.

Even if they could get it working I can imagine there would be a great risk of bricking your device. Anyways I don't think id like to be stuck on GE. As good as the firmware is the lack of choice and features would get pretty boring lol. They've managed to get duel boot working on the i9500 so I'm hope they i9505 will be soon to follow!
I have a I9505, recently flashed a new ROM on it. Now my model number in About Phone shows GT-I19505G,
I suppose that isn't quite the same?

I'm keeping an eye on the below thread, it allows you to switch from GE to touchwiz based ROM, its in beta testing at the moment and it will hopefully be released for everyone soon. The handy thing is that your data is shared between both ROMs, which means apps installed on one ROM appear in the other and vice versa.

No worries, it does look great. I've been watching the 4.2.2 and 4.3 GE ROM threads closely but been holding out for this as it seems like the perfect solution to experience the best of both worlds.

Hello All,
Samsung has started rolling out Lollipop on Galaxy S4. I would like to know if it is possible to port that ROM to Nexus 4?
Can someone point me to the guides to port Galaxy S4 ROM to Nexus 4?
Thank you!
Why would anyone want to do that?

I thought the same exact thing when I saw the title but it the spirit of xda, yes it could be ported but the s3 would probably be easier if there was one which there probably isn't.
All depends on how much effort you wanna put into it though
Fair play

Thanks a lot @sykopompos. I googled a lot but could not find any leads on to how to start on this. Do you have any links which could show me some light?
I just want to try that @copong. I've used kitkat touchwiz ROM on mako and it is good for a change

Google using xda at the end of your search string "how to port a rom xda" But be ready for a challenge, it's not so easy.

Truthfully all my porting skills are in my head and I never followed any links to do so.
The s4 has a 801 processor which would be a very good difference from what is in the n4 so matching up a touchwiz ROM init filed on kit Kat would be my starting place to see what the differences are from there.
Then from there it comes down to figuring out the differences in lib since most touchwiz changed are in the frameworks.
In the end, you would end up with more mako then s4 which is what you want

Thanks! I also compared S3, S4 and mako. And as you said S3 is much closer to mako. So I'll start searching while keeping S3 in mind :good:
I just sold my S5 as TW ram so damn horrible on LP, a phone of that spec ran slower than a Moto G, why would you want that crap anywhere near a nexus device?
anyone here able to port that Rom for our Exynos or even willing to ?
and if there is a guide on how to do it i volunteer
I can do testing if anyone agrees to port

thanks to all of you guys at least i'm not the only one interested , i am just surprised that no one in this forum who own an Exynos is a developer and willing to help i dont know why
Guys its about donates, in our forum none of us do not pay for services. If we prove we will donate for works im sure one of big developers will port for us.

don't think it's for money Samsung must release a MM update first so that developers can port to it
and this because unlike snapdragon Exynos is not an opened source so developers can't port to it

I found some dev that trying to port S7 EDGE like in darklord ROM to Exynos, but don't know how is the progress so far:
http://ndroid.io/forums/thread/riverrom-n3-n900-exynos-s7edge-port/
They say the Tab S did receive the MM update, if it is true can we port it? Since Tab S has the same exact Exynos as the Note 3.
But I also not sure since the update arrive for Tab S LTE, and the LTE is the Snapdragon right?

S5 Exynos already have a MM update but we didn't see any port from that so I guess they couldn't as I said before Exynos is not an open source maybe this is the reason why we must wait for Samsung update
So are we getting a real update to MM or we are just hoping?!
