[Q] [Question] Requeriments to port a ROM? - General Questions and Answers

I saw many posts about how to port a ROM. But in each post, there are many requeriments. My real question is to port, for example CM 10.1 for my phone that uses ICS 4.0.4 Stock ROM, but I don't know the real requeriments. In a post I read that it had to be the same manufacturer, for the drivers problem. Plus it said that must be the same resolution, the same Android version and the same processor or processor type. Can Anyone tell me wich are the real requeriments to port a ROM to my phone?.
P.D My phone uses ICS 4.0.4 odexed

Rom vs Stock

Quick question, Can someone tell me why a rom such as CyanogenMOD runs slower (even though it pushes the processor to its limit) than the stock G1 rom? Is there a rom out that is built for speed?

[Q] Is it Possible to Base an Android Kernel on Linux 3.3?

I know Linux 3.3 was supposed to include all the Android code. I'm just wondering if it's possible to use a custom kernel based on Linux 3.3 on a current Android phone. I know for my phone at least (Verizon Galaxy Nexus) all I've seen are kernels based on 3.0.x. If anyone knows any custom kernels based on a newer version send me some links. If not for the Galaxy Nexus, for any phone just so I know it's possible.

It is possible, sure.
But a lot of debugging.

[Q] (Q) Android 4.3 Port - Leaked Google Experience ROM

Hi! I read that Sammobile already got a leaked version of Android 4.3 from the SGS4 Google Experience, ported to SGS4 w/ Snapdragon 600 and I got the link for the ROM! How hard will it be for devs to try to port it to our device? It's Here is the link:

[Q] (Q) How to port roms?

I have been looking at roms for my device for quite a while. Some are ports of s4 and xperia stock roms. How to port the latest version of android to my device? I read up on some guides and they all state that the port rom can be any working rom for my device and the base rom should be from any device which has a similar chipset. But there aren't many devices in the market with MTK6589 chipset and the existing ones don't have android 4.3. My question is , how did people manage to port the s4 stock rom to a mediate device. (the s4 has an exynos chipset). And how do people manage to port the latest android versions to their devices.
This may be a noob question but I searched through the forums and couldn't find anything much helpful.
PLS:I have some experience with Linux and its commands but don't know much of coding.
