Comparing i9505 forum, i9500 has a very little ROM, even cyanogen doesn't support it, All guys with i9505 can easly download a stable AOSP 4.4 kitkat, but not i9500???? Why?

You should really search before posting... Try the android development in s4 device db. As i9500 is a exynos based processor and Samsung keeps the source code unavailable for devs, new roms or AOSP rooms are difficult to come by... However you can find some work on progress. I9505 is based on qualcomms chips are openly available..

its only compatible with the 9505 at the moment mate
Thing is their are just way more i9505s out their than i9500s. They touted the i9500 even though most countries will not get it and when they do people will already have the i9505. Plus, since it is really not a 8 core device as they say people are not going to switch over for a small change. Most developers are in countries were only the i9505 was officially released.
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

i guess its possible
compatibility might not be a big issue cause u r just going to port apps,media frameworks and lib files
But u can only port ofiicial 4.2.2 based roms of i9505 to i9500
Which guide r u referring to while porting?

I would say it's nearly impossible, as i9500 and i9505 had different processors, camera sensor, GPU etc. Talking about processors, the Exynos 5 Octa and Snapdragon 600 is a big difference. Those ROM files like lib.so and framework files had already built in for their hardware.
However, I remebered that someone wants to port HTC One ROM to Galaxy S3 International version (Exynos 4 Quad), it worked. But with lots of lots of bugs including lags. When he gaveup he finally stated that it's hard to port ROMs on different hardwares.
Hope this helps

Assuming Samsung have screwed the open source community again by not releasing Exynos sources and the CM team can't do much currently?
I'm sure it may get released eventually, but as to when, who knows.

Dear Devs,
Today I searched some stock samsung apps like multiwindow, launcher on google
I found some Devs Ported Note 3 Rom in to the Micromax Canvas HD A116 Device and completely look like N3
My Question is When i was buying Grand Duos the price was Rs.21500, and Canvas HD Just 10500 the point is why Grand Duos is not getting the other flagship device rom ported like the micromax A116,
Grand Duos Got Some brilliant Brave Devs in this forum, its not very compel to port its my humble request to give some try.
pls dont take serious just sharing my thought if its not possible pls clarify the difference

See. There are many phones out there with mtk chipset, but phones with Broadcom chipset are less in number. Mtk chipset always have ported versions of the latest android version. We have source built versions which is good. We can't port roms from other devices because of less phones of Broadcom chipset. Also our devs are too busy to look into this project. So I think your request will be turned down.

I totally agree with u that we should have got a port but then the port for tw stock based custom rom always depends on the base and base for note 3 and S5 apps to work is android 4.4kk or either 4.3 and I have a strong feeling i9082 will be updated and if I'm not wrong this will be second firmware update for grand!!!

Samsung Galaxy S5 G900H is one of the most neglected phones in a flagship range of phones! And the reason? Because of having an Exynos processor. Why aren't developers not developing no AOSP based custom ROMs for G900H? The source code is available online, and someone should at least take the initiative. If I knew how to do develop a ROM from scratch or If someone could teach me, I would have done it. But that is not the case. Are there people who have the skills to do the impossible? How do they make an AOSP ROM compatible for a device?
Well we can start a bounty but to be honest i'm going to get rid of my g900h as soon as the new Nexus comes out.

That is so true.. I find that all development happens for all the other major phones except the g900h.. and I feel so left out of the whole loop... *sigh*

I wanted to raise awareness.. This is because, the G900H is a very common variant in Asian, African and South American countries but has few developers for it..

Guys wait for it we are working on CM12.1 for Samsung Galaxy S5 Exynos along with @k2wl Its not easy to develop CM for Exynos due lot of limitation on hardware sources and many other changes are required. In short making cm12 for Exynos based devices take time hence you have to wait for it. we are developing cm12 just have patience, exynos is not has friendly has qcom.
Please be patient , we will update here our progress whenever we fix anything
Cheers!
