I really don't understand why s2+ is legacy while s2 forum is full of activity, roms and posts. Just my curiosity and frustration..s2+ is newer than s2, isn't it? Newer and not better?
Really?? I have one queation for you. If you had the s2 will you trade it with s2 plus? The devices is about the same with little differences...

well,i think since cm/aosp rom are not yet complete,i think it's hard to port any rom to this phone for now.

No,9100 released two years ago,hence got a big user/community/developer,making custom rom are easy to find,cause alot of people develop for it. Our device got small amount of user(vs millions of 9100 user),hence finding dev among us are hard .

Hi all!
All I want to say that thank to XDA's community and its devs , Ive seen the evolution of the scene SGR from no roms nor kernels to infected and titanium roms and as I seen theres a CM7 project on the go and even AOSP.... thats much more than I expected when I bought it so thanks for everything!
Uh, I was just looking up on MIUI rom and I have got a question. Why is CM more popular? MIUI seems like a much nicer experience.
MIUI is much newer, supports quite few devices and it's basically based on CM. To get MIUI u must first have CM /AOSP.

How do you make an Odin flash able ROM and one for CWM?

I've heard that NVflash is a lower level of firmware flashing than Odin and NVflash makes Optimus 2x almost inbrickable.
Is it possible that we can have this method for our phones too?

Odin flashable roms aren't easy to make! And CWM needs an Updater-Script which have to be written according to our custom rom n file structure! Take a look at herehttp://freeyourandroid.com to get u started..

Seeking advice on building AOSP
Hi,
I want to learn building ROMS. I am aware that it is a difficult job, but I want to give it a try. I have read the AOSP buld instructions, but they don't mention the steps involved in creating a new build target. I understand that the process is maybe different for each device, so could any of the ROM developers here please tell me about the steps involved in doing the same for our Galaxy R?
If the answer is very involved, a short summary and relevant links will help a lot, too.

Hey guys (adam,grarak,vikram,selva and other gr8 developers)
I have seen many ppl talking abt sense ui which made me think dat it mite be gud. So finally one day i saw the sense uo and was amazed it was gr8. I even tried to use the guide in the general thread dis 1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721539
But honestly i dont know a think abt porting and the kitchen et cetera, et cetera can any of you pls pls port sense ui to our Galaxy R. It will look absolutely stunning. I am sure many ppl would want to try sense on our R. So guys if u have time pls try and port the sense ui to our device. Possibly whoever wants the sense ui can +1 in dis thread wat u say?
Thanks and regards.

Even i m thinking the same. Sense UI is something different from others. Great transitions and what a nice widgets it have.. But let wait if any intersted dev would say yes for this..
Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda premium
Sense UI is definitely very great. But it is a huge beast having a lot of custom modifications to the core system. Extremely hard to port. Even Sense4All project has many issues.

Exactly. The matter which complicates things even more is that no Samsung and HTC devices share a chipset, making it impossible to find a common denominator so to say

If I helped you, please hit the thanks button!
Sense UI is really something.. We all know that.. Even i would love to see it in our SGR.. If the developers are interested, i think we can conduct a poll question for this topic.. What do u say guys?
Poll for what my friend? Just read Adam's post. This is a hell lot of work. We might as well port the S2 Official JB ROM before we are even half way through this. As it is Adam has his hands filled with CM, Karthik is resuming AOSP soon, Grarak has multiple ROM's and so has MJ. I suggest we focus on getting stable ROM's rather than a myriad of unstable/unusable ones. Just imagine, all that work and what you get in the end is a Sense Look Alike, half stable that a FEW people MAY/WOULD like to try. Not a good deal I feel.
So d point is we wont get sense
Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda premium
Sense doesnt make sense
No offence to anyone but personally i do not like sense. Hell ! even my friends with htc dont like it cuz it eats resources and battery! Id take CM10 or 10.1 over sense anyday . If we are talking about launchers , I feel the need for a customized version of trebuchet in which there is an option for rearranging icons and making folders in the menu.

U simply cannot port it from SGS2 bro.. Our SGR h/w is entirely different from SGS2.. It aint possible for us to port from other devices.. If we have to port jelly bean, then Samsung have to release a source for us or build jelly bean for us which is highly unlikely..

Why cant we modify stock s2 jb rom or any other stock jb rom and make it compatible with our device.

Okay agreed at a point that hardware does not match..it is completely different..
But cant those things be edited so as to make compatible?
Sent from my GT-I9103 using xda premium
Nobody said its impossible. Its just super-difficult. We cannot port official JB for approx the same reason why we couldn't port the official ICS. Samsung implements a completely different set of framework and libraries for each of its devices depending on what its hardware is. If you wanted to port an official Samsung ROM you would have to re-write most of these framework and library files which are hardware dependent, which eventually culminates into a mountain of work. Sound Good?

This is THE BEST EXPLAINATION i could ever get.
So like if 10 or more devs work together on a particular stock rom..then only we can have it all?
Then another question is why would any dev waste time on stock roms when they can make better roms
Bdw it sounds tough..doing must be tougher.

Before porting any rom, i do advise to go through few tutorials to see how android is build etc.
Basically you try to port a rom from any device, but it is strongly recommended to port rom from a similiar spec device.

Well, it wouldn't be too much of a problem at all. Porting devices with Cyanogenmod as a base is easy, a lot of tutorials available... but make sure the device has the same resolution and the ROM you're trying to port is also based on Cyanogenmod (AOKP, PA, PAC, MIUI etc.).
But i could install S2 rom to S2+? or better not even to try?

Oh no, ROMs must be device specific. I sure wish we could though. There seems to be progress being made in the general forum under the "sign up" topic. We may soon have a killer ROM if the developer gods smile upon them favorably.
