Can you dual boot on an android ? - General Questions and Answers

I was wondering because I could dual boot on my old touch pro 2

Well this question goes unanswered so let me be the first to say that I will pick up on this project and run with it to come up with a port for the evo3D. I will obtain the source code from the following link.

ROM Galaxy S advance to i9003

Today, samsung officially release new 4.1.2 Jelly Bean OFFICIAL ROM firmware for galaxy S advance.
Is it possible any modder could port it to i9003?
I think it is same hardware except the mhz of the phone but maybe we could port this stock rom to I9003.
Any ideas?
Yes its possible. Even roms from other family, they can port it. But its not what they prioritize. After finishing Kernel 3 then i believe new ROMS everyday will come out.
FYI, galaxy S advance specs are totally different from our phone i9003.
porting from it will be meaningless.
galaxy s official ics should be port to our sl

No. None of the other Samsung devices have the same specifications as our i9003. There is also no official ICS for Galaxy S.
Any ROM can be ported to our device till the ROM has the same DPI as our device for example dhiru ported the stock ICS ROM from galaxy s2 to galaxy s 19000

I think we can just left them dream about what they want to dream...
explaining technical stuff they won't accept it and won't understand it.
They will just think that porting will be very EASY

[Q] new os:)

GUYS PLZZ GO THROUGH THIS NEW OPERATING SYSTEM.
YESTERDAY MY FRIEND TOLD ME ABOUT THIS NEWLY INTRODUCES OPERATING SYSTEM WHICH
IS OFCOURSE OPERNSOURCE AND CONTAINS VERY STYLISH USER INTERFACE.
link for it:
https://sailfishos.org/
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailfish_OS
and for devs of ace plus, just see if it could be ported easily or not... i think it could.
enjoy xda.
Jolla Sailfish is currently the hardest OS to be ported, as it was originally designed only for high-end Nokia handsets. Not going to see this any soon.

Porting ROM

Guys does anyone know a guide to Port ROMs from another devices ,of course I want to contribute too on SGA+ community .I want to Port a CM10 based ROM ,planning to port S|| Stock ROM jelly bean from galaxy Ace

Ace and ace plus are too different. I tried to port cm7, but i got bootloop. I'd suggest you try to port from an msm7x27a device

Search on google for msm7x27a devices and click the first link. Only make sure the device you want to port from has the same resolution, in case you don't want to compile from source

Oh! And if you want to port a rom, they should b the same version.
E.g. : port 4.1 to 4.1 , not 4.1 to 2.3 because you will need a base rom fro ace plus and the rom you'd like to port

[REQ]Help with CM7!

i finally compiled a flashable .zip CM7 file for S7500, but it won't pass the android logo and i can't provide logcats because "/sbin/sh : command not found" . i tried installing other kernels, but was still stuck at splash logo
here goes the archive :
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B0uz2OGgH2lDOV9pRjVDS0swMlU/edit
So I followed one of those "port from another device" thread. I used Inspiration ROM V10 as a base. The result was not very good.
The only thing that changed is that ... the bootloops are shorter :/

well as per i know u can't port it from another device.
cm roms needs source code to build first as per device.
& as thewhisp already said he build cm10 source code for our device & mini2.
technically u can port roms only if u have perfect base rom & here u r going to create base rom.
so u have to build source code first
( IDK much so correct me if m wrong )
btw, i hope dev's will ready to help u in that... :highfive:
I think it can be ported without using source code. There are many tutorials on how to port cm from other devices. Only aosp runs only built from source.

Mmm wait a min htc explorer..??
R u serious...
Htc explorer = galaxy ace plus
320*480 = 320*480 (good)
600mha = 1gha (but this)
I've check some porting roms guide. I agreed they said screen resolution must be same fo both base rom device & port rom device.
But even now all specifications are also have to same like gpu & ram etc.
If u try to port roms from lower to higher gpu or viz. U will face bootloop.
Same case happen when some ppl try to port galaxy ace's rom for ace plus.
I suggest take a look once again on guide... may let u clear ur doubt.

there is no other gingerbread device tree. can anyone help me on how to create one or share an existing one?
After a long search i took a device tree from HTC Pico and modified files to make it somehow compatible with our Trebon, yet i don't know if i did good because i don't know which files are proprietary, so i might have just partially obtained the blobs.
I tried to build CM7 again, this time based on this device tree, but it didn't boot :crying: . I need some help with this device tree.
