CM 10.1 on Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus

Hello all,
I will apologise in advance for asking this question, there is probably a logical answer whether it is possible or not, but I am new new to all of this, so I have no idea.
So here we go;
There is a CM 10.1 rom out now for the Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830). Is it possible to get THIS rom working properly on my Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus (GT-S7500)?
Thanks in advance.
I've just found this link, but I didn't had the time to try that 10.1 ROM:
http://mobotechie.com/android/how-to-update-samsung-galaxy-ace-plus-s7500-to-android-4-2-1-jellybean-ultimate-guide
I've found some comments at the bottom... I'll let you know when I'll try it, I'm very busy in these days.

and.....what?
A dev rrishabh1809 is giving cm10.1 for our phone just P.M him. The only problem is that you have to thank him in all his posts, pretty weird but worked for me.

What's with the spamming? I see this guy has posted exactly the same thing on another thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38374717&postcount=258
And anyway, for the OP, I think cm10.1 of ace cannot be ported to ace plus as they have different chipsets. Devs are working on CM10 though, and a couple of threads on CM10 for ace plus are already present.
ace plus already has cm10.1

Ubuntu touch port

I am starting the port of Ubuntu touch for our thunderbolt. I am not a professional developer but I have experience in development. I have an idea that I will explain.
My idea is to make a team and developed this port. I have tried but keep getting a status 7 error during installation. The status 7 I get, deals with the update script. I don't know how to fix this. This is why I would like to make a team.
Anyone that would like to join pm and I will upload the zip I made and we will try to port this faster.

One problem that I can see you having immediately is the fact that we don't have cm10.1 to base the port off of. Also the current versions of Ubuntu touch lack any real world use other than to ooo and aw at. Without the base though I don't know how porting it would even be possible.

True but I read on the Ubuntu website that it was used on ICS. So if it worked with ics it may work, If we all try to make it work it would be good. The only we need to do is to get the rom to boot, once it boots we can check what works and fix the not working. This is possible, it just takes time.

I didn't say it was impossible. We are lacking the requirements. All the info I read about it says it uses cm10.1 which is jb. The other part that sucks the most is that it there really aren't any usable features to speak of yet. I tried it with my n7 and it is neat but not even close to being a daily driver.

Well.... we can try to port it, its only the developers preview but if we port the preview we can know what we will deal with when Ubuntu touch is out.

Haha I made a similar thread over @ Galaxy Nexus and they just opened fire, because I have little skill with this stuff as well.... Status 7 means your model name or something like that is incorrect when checked with the device itself, that's why you can't flash a GSM Nexus ROM on a Verizon Nexus... I believe this info is in build.prop if you unzip the zip in question and open build.prop with some Linux distro (Linux opens ROM files out of the box, suck it Window$).

Thanks, I now have to look into that.

You can bypass device check by removing the assert prop lines in the updater script.

But this so-called "developer" just edited build.prop so it would flash.

No, I am receiving help from a developer and the status 7 isn't appearing anymore but I am now getting a status 0. Whis isn't hard to fix.

I was thinking the ace was the code name for the desire HD. Not the galaxy ace

I can take a look at your update script if you'd like. Also I would not recommend porting this as almost 0 things work. To each their own, though

Yea I already mentioned that basically nothing works. The status 0 problem is most likely an issue with the update binary not matching the changes made to the update script.

[Kernel 3.4.10] PORT- Sag/Villec2 -- Discussion

I have started porting Sense 3.4.10 Kernel from VilleC2. I am getting everything on my git set up and anyone who has development experience with kernels PLEASE do what you can. Once we have this kernel ported and booting we can boot my ALREADY ported sense 4+ Rom... Until then i will NOT release anything that would be stupid because i would rather release a 90% working Rom rather than a 25% Rom. Thanks and links for git will appear as soon as they are ready xx

Happy to read from you, and thanks for your hard work
Someone said you lost your DS, can you compile the kernel without it?

Android development or Original Android development?

Can someone explain what the difference is between these two?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Well... as far as i could tell from using ROM's on my Galaxy S3...
Android Development = ROM's based on stock ROM provided by the manufacturer that have been modified.
Original Android Development = ROM's generally created from source, from scratch (Like Cyanogenmod)

I've noticed a lot of threads are mixed up among the 2 forums for the Nexus 5. Hopefully things get straightened out soon.
