Can you use Nexus S ROMs on the Nexus One? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just curious...
Thanks in advance.

No. Absolutely not. Don't even try it. You have been warned.

The hardware is that different, huh?

See these are the responses that are crippling our community. Answer the question with some information and good will versus sarcasm and venom.
Not everyone was born with ability to to distinguish technology and have adb commands hard coded in their brains. Not singling you out man I see it alot. And I can imagine a noob at his keyboard hands trembling in fear of imminent flaming for asking a question.
Yes I encourage the "Search" and I encourage people to fully read threads. I also discourage mobs with torches and pitch forks when some asks a question an advanced user finds silly or whatever. Again just satin this as a blanket statement. Community and unity guys.

Does Nexus S ROM work on Nexus One
Does Droid ROM work on Droid 2 or Droid X or Droid Pro or Droid X2.... just cuz they slightly have the same name doesn't mean it will.
Some common sense helps.
The Does Nexus S ROM work on Nexus S 4G questions I understand, since they are basically the same thing except for the GSM/CDMA radios. But to think Nexus S and Nexus One is alike is just crazy.

The Nexus one is a 3G GSM HTC device. The NexusS is a 3G Samsung device. The NexusS4G is 3G CDMA EvDo rev A and 4G wimax Samsung device . The hardware is very different thus radios, kernels framework, systemui, settings and other system software will be different in order to accommodate each devices respective technology.
Hope that answers your question.

I assumed you could because you can use different ROMs on all of the Galaxy S varients... Figured the same might work for One and S. Thanks for the ignorant sarcastic response though!

The Nexus One is made by HTC.
Nexus S is made by Samsung. It's not really a Galaxy S variant either.

Why would you want a Nexus S ROM on a Nexus One? I thought ROM is all about OS?

Yeah, I didn't know that. I just figured Q&A is where I should post an honest question plus I was just doing a favor for a friend. Now if I had, "How do I get root and put a custom ROM" on as my topic I could understand the sassyness.

I STILL have my N1. I still flash ROMs on it almost daily. None of those ROMs "blow". This being a development community, I find your comment obnoxious and unnecessary.
Edit to clarify: Allot of hard work goes into creating a ROM. That's why your comment bothers me.

I know what goes into making a ROM. There dev section looks neglected. Found that a lot of the devs don't bother do update there topic if a URL goes down and hell, quite frankly even some of the ROMs don't explain what upgrades they have. One ROM I even found people complaining it was all in Spanish and even the latest MIUI was taken down because of problems.
Go check out the dev sections for the Samsung Captivate and look in any of the ROM topic and you'll see how detailed they are and most even have screenshots.
That's all I meant. This is getting beyond off topic from my original question. Got my answer and that's all I needed to know. Done posting here. Thanks.

Thank you. Knew it would come in handy.
Anybody have any clue what kind of special stuff is in there? Maybe the EVO Sense already works with JIT Roms????
I for one would love to see the new lockscreen ported to our 2.1 roms. That would be sick
I would love to have a lockscreen that isn't our stock Hero one. It's terrible. And I can't seem to get the Vanilla one working or any other one except the straight up clear one working on Fresh 2.1.
And the Hotspot app. I'd love Infrastructure wifi instead of Ad-Hoc
So other than a few different apps whats so different about the EVO rom? Been alot of talk that they may not even be able to root that baby, id feel bad for them.

The fact that Sprint is requiring (seems to be confirmed now too) that you have the Wifi hot spot add-on in order to activate the wifi on the phone leads me to believe that once people have this phone in hand they will find that it's not rootable.
I am not real savvy on rooting android phones, but it seems to me that this might be the direction that providers are going in with these phones in order to maintain add-on sales for the devices.

[Q] Theme Question/Request

Hi there, I'm VERY new. I just got a Samsung Droid, first droid phone ever. I've rooted my phone by flashing the Altered Beast ROM onto it.
I came across the AndroidCutee theme HERE and want to know if its compatible with my phone. If not how do I make it compatible or can someone make one like it for the Charge or another similary Girly theme?
Many Thanks!

We only have one themer, and 2or3 rom developers right now. Im thinking the dev support will be slow and lacking with the charge. Samsung screwed too many people with a lack of updates. Dont use that theme...you will ruin your phone.
i sent him a request to see if i can port it.

says he wants it for bamf only. he just released it or something.
I guess that is fair enough, but BAMF is only for the ThunderBolt, too bad since they have a great ROM on the TB, wish they work on the Charge as well.

{11 ROMs} Lack of Devs! I call it BS!!!!!!

Lack of Dev support for SkyrockeT???? I call it BS. Just an excuse for someone to hate Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. What do you think?
Less than a month and we have 11 ROMs total, some customized and others stock.
But it proves that we have strong Devs working hard for our Device.
Plus all t989 roms that you can use.
So please support Devs who wants to help us out!

here here!!!!!
I noticed a few of the devs from the inspire over on this forum. Pirateghost is an example. He had a very nice rom in the inspire forum. I'm not worried about it at all. Go skyrocket. I think people aren't willing to wait for it. They open the forum and don't see cm7 or miui and they haul ass. This device WILL get ICS. And its an awesome phone with awesome hardware, I haven had one single problem yet.

Completely agree, I've donated to a couple devs already myself and I'm always ready to donate to more.
I believe there is a lack of devs because everyone jumped on the i777 without knowing that the I727 was coming. However I do believe the i777 is a better overall phone.
Not hating, just speaking my mind.

Can we expect a sense 4.0 port since unlocked bootloader???

Verizon Galaxy S3 has finally got an unlocked bootloader. Any chance we will see a sense 4.0 port to it now like the international version and other us carriers i believe?

That would be cool. I'm honestly a fan of Sense Roms, but I dislike HTC a lot.
It may be easier than on the Galaxy nexus/NexusS due to the Qualcom CPU...
but i doubt it

You can simulate the experience of running Sense with Beautiful Widgets, removing half your RAM and limiting your CPU to 600mhz. Just like running a phone with Sense!

We have kernels for AOSP and TW, they'd just need to pick on and modify it if they even need to. It comes down to how much they really want to port it.

Would you recommend Honor 8 for a power-user wanting a good dev scene?

XDA have posted many blog posts about this phone and are running competitions so I assumed it would have a good development scene, however these forums seem quite dry in that there aren't many ROMs. Is this likely to pick up? Or am I best off getting a different phone with a better development scene?
Thanks in Advance
There aren't any ROMs that I know of and although TWRP finally got a port to FRD officially in the past day or two I haven't seen anyone with the FRD-L07 (US version) report using it. People had bootloop issues installing SuperSU to the L04 in the past and the then current version of TWRP couldn't make a system backup either.
The Honor 8 is a really nice phone, but I would wait and see what happens if you're thinking of buying one with flashing/tinkering on mind.
Only get this device if you are willing to jump in and help. As there is almost nothing and no one is really interested. I am saving up for the device but it won't be for like 8 months or more before I get it. I understand there will most likely be nothing so I am looking at it as a challenge.

Right now, there is a TWRP and some modified stock ROMs. Maybe in time, development will bloom for this phone. But right now, this phone is not recommended for development adept people.

Yea...there are a few things that need work, but all in all, it seems like a great device. I see probs with notifications and some with wifi issues. Hope it's resolved too.

I think it has to do with sales (community size) and official support (source code and guidance).
That's what made the nexus so widely developed.

Get a best phone with good development. As of now H8 is a born baby and is not good at development. MI is better in development compared to Honor.
Until someone can prove me otherwise Nexus devices still enjoy the biggest and diverse (in terms of different ROM flavours and different apps) community.
