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
As reading from an article from Android Police, SamMobile has gotten a pre-release build of Jellybean 4.3.. This build has now been ported to the Galaxy S 4 (GT-i9505).. As for the users. Please do not ask if this can be ported. It can't right now. We don't even have CM10.1 (which one day we will of course). Just wanted to share this

ohhh. pure touch_iz
ew. been running Goolge Edition 4.4.2 for S4, for what seems like months now...
Are there any differences in the official build vs. the test build xxufnad?
Guys, I have a Sprint Galaxy S3 (SPH-L710) that is currently running MIUI 4.8.22 w/ Android 4.2.2 perfectly. What I want to know is, is the very latest version of MIUI compatible with my phone and where can I find it? All of the ROMs on the MIUI offical site does not work with this phone. I found this ROM on this wonderful and very awesome site. I just want to be sure I'm up-to-date.

No idea. MIUI is not developed here. The only thing here are some ports as XDA doesnt support MIUI
Hello everyone !
As everyone knows that we have android 6.0.1 and 7.0.x available for Jflte devices i was wondering if maybe a jflte developer could build a rom that is TouchWiz
based on CM/LOS and have android 6.0.1/7.1.x like the rom we got earlier [MIUI 8 based on CM with android 6.0.1] by @mikussj3 .....
i don't know if it's possible to build it or port it that's why i started this thread
I hope i'm in the right section of the forum..
Thanks in advance
TouchWiz can't be based on Lineage.
And porting the TouchWiz stuff to Lineage requires a lot of work. Something that developers don't really want to do or don't have time to do it.
I may be wrong, but I haven't seen a single Lineage/CM ROM that has the TouchWiz framework.
And android 6, 7 TouchWiz ROMs can't be ported to jflte devices because ROM ports I believe have to come from a phone with similar processor type and architecture.
The only S4 that runs Android 6 TouchWiz ROMs is the klte (GT-I9506), which has a Snapdragon 800 processor. So it's similar to the S5, and that made ports possible or easier.

Guys it's not impossible to port android 6.0.1 TouchWiz to GS4 i9505 its just hard to do so. There will be a lot of code changes and stuff like that.

And even then, if some developer ports MM TW, it will be very buggy, and by the time the bugs got fixed, everybody will move on to newer devices.
Think about this way: if that would be possible, a port would already be done.
