Hello Experts,
I am very new to this forum. I have some doubts In installing new Codename OS for my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9003 which is currently running on gingerbread 2.3.6.
1. What is the latest compatible jelly bean based Codename android OS for my device? And where do I download it?
2. Will the Codename OS affect the performance of my device, since the new improved features of jellybean will occupy more space on my device?
3. Application compatibility in Codename android? Can we use all the applications that we generally use in official jellybean?
4. On installation of CNA custom ROM, will it be installed additionally or Official operating system will be replaced?
5. Is it possible to go back to the official gingerbread after installing the custom ROM with Codename Android?
6. Is there anything I need to pay for installing CAN?
Pls help me out..
I have same problem. I am trying to find jelly bean for Samsung Galaxy S gt i-9003
1. There are several jelly bean based custom operating systems. For example Jelly bam rom. Search here in xda or Google.
2. The os will definitely take more space than previous stock rom. But gt i9003 will have lots of internal space so there's nothing to worry about performance as long as you keep internal memory to optimum.
3. You can install all JB based apps.
4. The custom rom will not install additionally, it will replace your stock rom.
5. Yes you can revert back to stock official rom any time you wish to.
6. Performance may be increased or decreased based on the types of apps you use. Regardless you will experience a decent performance and you need not pay a penny for this instead you can donate to developers for their valuable work.
Hope this had helped you.

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
Hi,
I currently have a Xolo Q900 mobile phone. Currently its with android 4.2.2 software installed.
I found a new updated in xolo official website.
My question is that can I modify that official update package as per my requirements.
Actually I want to update my camera software. Although the new official update package doesnt consists any camera update when I checked. [My method of checking : I didnt found any camera.apk or any camera related app or file inside the update package. I have checked every folders it has.]
I want to use the Camera software of Android 4.2.1.
Is it really possible to patch this Android 4.2.1 camera software in the new Android 4.2.2 update?

Generally going backwards to older apk's is not suggested. However it's possible if you are rooted and have recovery.
Several threads dealing with ROM's for this phone:

Good day I just want to ask does flashing a custom rom to your phone make your phone compatible with app that will only run on latest version of android?
I have OPPO R831k that has a stock version of android 4.2, can I install app that can only run at android 4.4 if I flash it with a higher version of custom rom?
