[Q] Galaxy S3 rom port? - HTC Sensation

I recently found out that the Galaxy s3 rom is leaked.
I wondered if it is possible to port it to our htc sensation?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610

Totally different hardware, different screen resolution, different everything. Buddy, it's not gonna happen.

It's not impossible, but I don't realistically see it happening. Two major components of the phones are different--screen resolution & CPU (and GPU) chip.

Is it not possible because correct me if I am wrong but doesn't the one x have a different cpu,gpu and screen res but somehow we managed to get a port of that albeit a very buggy one but we did.

iirc we didn't a port of the One X, we got a port of the S I believe, and the latest one is the Ville something.

Yeah it was the One S and Desire C (Ville) now.

The very first port of sense 4 I am almost certain was based on the one x.

fook know's lol,the advert i've seen is some sky divers with the phone and it shows him taking a video,then takes a pic whilst recording lol,sure u can find the advert on google,and it's cos i like my fone to be up to date,my hd2 was a desire s,then a htc sensation,sensation xe,then a sensation xl,was even tempted to make it like a samsung galaxy s2 lol,but had 2nd thoughts lol
if I recall correctly, the sensation doesn't have the hardware to do so. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but as of right now you can't use that, unless some awesome dev somehow makes it function
All sense 4 roms have ability to take a pic while recording. all phones from one series has that. but I think it's cemera hardware isue on one serie with some special chip. so I don't think that will work on other phones
Well i've just tried makin a video,but defo CANNOT TAKE A PIC lol,so plz plz show me a sense rom,link anythin with the option cos personally,we all no that isn't available yet or else we'd all av it

Wow. People. The Sensation does not have the camera hardware needed to take pictures and video at the same time. We can port software until we are blue in the face but without the hardware it won't matter. You all should learn a little about what you are doing to your $600.00 phone before you start flashing and bricking your phones.

We have been scammed by HTC.

HTC allows us to unlock but does not allow total root capabilities.
What is the point of unlocking and losing warranty if the phone is not truly yours?
Love the One S LOTS! But why keep it if development will be hampered by HTC?
Not a Samsung fan but I guess it will be my next device. Maybe sooner than later if I can sell the One S or trade for a G-Nex.
Got the S cause of T-Mobile and want true aosp along with full root functions. Thought it would be no problem to get aosp but wow was I wrong! Sense sucks!
Thanks HTC for once again SUCKING! You are losing the ONES who truly love your devices!
You seriously thought it would be easy to get AOSP on an HTC phone? That's where you went wrong.

Hmm well maybe if you paid attention to recent trends and saw how hard it was to S-Off the vivid and rezound, you would have made a better purchasing decision.

Point is that HTC advertises that they are " developer friendly" which is total B.S.
They turn the knob for you but will not let you open the Fn door!

I don't know, I think they have some insane hacking to get S-Off. I believe everything to achieve it on those devices has been patched. What I am trying to say is they have roms that are decent but it took them forever to get S-Off and their development was crippled by it.

Just sucks how HTC is half assing their support.
I will likely hold on and wait for some good news in the future.
Never, since using Android ,have I ever thought about giving up on HTC until now
399$ Nexus looking real good right now.
Don't do it man, I had a galaxy nexus and I miss AOSP but Samsung makes some plastic ass phones. It'll get better in due time. The One S has an advantage over the One X and maybe the SGSIII in that the European model and US model are exactly the same.

I hear you man. I have always praised HTC build quality over Samsung.
I do agree that the S is better than the X. Phone is a BEAST. Just wish it was not handcuffed to Sense
For now the best I can do is keep using Black Dragon Rom which "looks" for the most part aosp.
Another wah-baby post... sad. I thought most people would realize it might be a couple of months before there is a fully functional and stable AOSP build. I did. Whatever.

The G2 was awesome. Very large and very good development support for it since it is also the same as Desire Z.
Sold it after getting One S. I had ICS on it working good including camera. Gingerbread was lightning fast on it.

You are missing the point. Of course I did not expect huge development this early for the S. What you are missing is that the support my not get a chance due to HTC and HTC is misleading<which is what this thread is about.

Kernel?

Just wondering if it would be possible to use a HTC One X kernal on the S4 One S?
Just curious considering that both phones have the same chip and gpu.

No, unless you want to brick your phone. Even though these phoes use the same board, they still have quite a few hardware differences.

Sense 5 and 4.2.2 confirmed for the evita?

https://twitter.com/LlabTooFeR/status/314061165569400832 Just saw this on the android subreddit. The other devices listed are the evitare (AT&T One X Plus), Jewel (EVO 4G LTE), and DLX_WL (Droid DNA).
oooh that would be nice!
Any idea who the guy tweeting is? I'm guessing a random developer. What makes his tweet any different/more important then the news we received from htc saying the one x will receive sense 5 eventually?
In any event, looks like good news and I can't wait!

Because HTC officially confirmed only for the international quad core version of the phone. Also, I have no clue who the person tweeting it is, hence why I put the question mark in the title. But it seems legit...
The "guy" is Football. It is spelled backwards since some issues in December.
A well respected source of info.
He leaked about 90% of the RUU's we have for our devices before he stopped doing that in December 2012.
He gives highly accurate info regarding the state of devices and their updates.
I believe he is a HTC employee with at least access to RUU's for both internal and public builds.

If you're rooted it doesn't really matter when AT&T releases it, just when the first carrier does or when it gets leaked. Still, I wouldn't expect it for a bit, probably not until the summer at the earliest. Unless HTC really is being truthful about updating their phones in a timely manner.

I agree on the leak,just hope newroot can get it ported and the the ota would be obsolete,except for fixing bugs and tighting the kernel up a bit!!!

agreed, i'm so-so on sense 5, but would much rather have 4.2.2 if given the choice between one of the two software developments. 5 seems like it could bring about a new set of issues that sense has already worked out in the 4.x versions, but 4.2.2 stands to improve a lot of the little issues that 4.1.x is experiencing.

Yes, but there's an update to 4.2.2 and they'd fast pass us to 4.2.2 and skip 4.1.2.

Are we referring to one xl or one x? (Or is it the same?) I think it is strange to update the one x straight from sense 4 to sense 5 (skipping sense 4+). Then again, after leaving sense I'm glad I did. Not missing anything. I know Evita is the one x (as it says it on my boot loader), but is it the same code name for others? What about enverbous (I think)

Both the One X and One XL have been updated to Sense 4+ officially, so not sure what you mean by "skipping Sense 4+". The only big thing is that they would be skipping 4.1.2 in favor of 4.2.2, which would make sense IMO

there will be a version of sense 5 with kitkat for this terminal?

any cook will have planned a version of android 4.4.2 with sense 5 or will be working only with the normal version of the android for this terminal?
What do you mean by normal version of Android? What do you mean by terminal?
Sent from my Evita
I think he wants to know if there will be a Sense version of Kit Kat. Terminology is a bit off, but that's what I gathered.
I really don't dabble to much into Sense Roms, because I prefer AOSP, so I really don't have a good answer for you.

I highly doubt it, unless a port comes from a portable device.

Which devices are portable
Sent from my HTC Butterfly s using Tapatalk
The easiest to port from are devices which share the same chipset and display resolution.
Sent from my Evita
like the evo 4g lte. or the one mini. kind of curios to see what can and cant be ported. and can you port CM 10.2 to run sense or would it be easer to port from a difrent device.
it just came a few hours back on the portal that HTC one X and one X+ wont receive any further official updates.
and as far as ports are concerned we dont have any device with a similar chip set the latest desire series 500,501,700 etc have the snapdragon 400 or lower versions... the flagships like m7 and the m8 when it will release will have the snapdragon 800 version!
the s4 chipset is only available for HTC one s and ours so its highly unlikely!
well there was a port from I think the m7 or a difrent one that was 4.1.2 with sense 5 so there is a device that can be ported. I dont know how but it can be done.
Yea even sundream mentioned it ....so did zarboz
Finger crossed
