ROM port question - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Is it possible to port s4 ROMs to this device? Has it been done before? I've messed around with porting before, I actually tried to port a sense 4 ROM to the s3 and I tried porting an s4 to the droid DNA. The problem I ran into was getting Ubuntu installed onto my windows 8.1 laptop in dual boot. Just curious thanks guys!

I don't see the point to do so. S4 is only 4.3 and current we're running custom 4.4 with all the latest 4.4 features. There's no reason to go back to 4.3 rom.

Yeah I understand your point. The reason I was asking is because I'm still running 4.1 jelly beans ROM and I was wondering if they weren't going to do a 4.3 release of that ROM if I could port the s4 version to the s3.

I don't see why you couldn't do it. Andybones has a S4 version of his rom that he is porting over to the S3. It can be done. As nice as 4.4 is I'll stick with a rock solid version of 4.3 anyday

Andy ported the S4 apps on to his S3 ROM. It is still an ROM based on the S3 firmware. If it was a port it would have said so in the title of his ROMs thread. It is an XDA rule to put port,official or unofficial in a ROM title if necessary. With that being said it is very difficult to port a ROM if the device it is based on has different hardware then the device it is being ported to.

Agreed, but the hardware isn't exactly the same in both devices. Roms can be ported for the most part to any device there are however some limitations
Nice avatar btw. I used to have one of disturbed from indestructible

What 4.1 ROM are you running? There are already quite a few 4.3 ROMs for the S3. MOAR, Wicked Sensations, Clean ROM, and JellyBeans (now called Alliance ROM) have all been updated from 4.1.2 to 4.3. And Synergy ROM and BoneStock are in the process of being updated to 4.3. There's also Old & slow's ROM, samstock, and scrosler's knoxless, rooted, stock ROM all based on 4.3.

Read the jelly bean thread.
This thread will probably be locked.
Not trying to be a jerk just saying.
If we had a jelly bean rom ready to go then u would definately know it. We will get jb when we get jb and that's that. The devs are working on it. Be patient

wow... 4 people responded to this post, and only one told the op the thread would be closed, smh.
just as a quick note, every versions of android beyond 4.1 is considered jellybean. if you guys are talking about 4.2, Google considered that an update to 4.1, and kept the same name moniker.
if the op is asking for any jellybean ROM based on 4.1, any of the first 7-8 in the android dev subsection is based on this.
if 4.2, we have one 4.2 based cm10 beta, but cm10 based code for 4.2 isn't quite stable for the snapdragon s3 platform (aka CPU in our phone) yet
also, as another note, if u were asking about 4.1, this is basic information that EVERY user should know, if u didn't u honestly shouldn't be flashing... if asking about 4.2 please ignore this ^^ and just be more clear in ur op

He asked that question back in July of 2011. At that time, there was only Jelly Bean 4.1. Most of the AOSP ROM's, and two TouchWiz JB ROM's: Embryo 6.0 and the leak.

SGS3 Vanilla JB Rom?

Hello, so far I stuck with stock roms... first ICS now leaked JB... I really would like a plain vanilla jb rom still retaining the great features of the SGS3... can anybody point me in the right direction?

No such thing, as vanilla android is unaltered, i.e. the nexus devices.
I would say that cyanogen mod is probably as close as you'll get. Aokp is close too but has much more customization options.

There isn't one. Use cm10 and don't use the customization. Also you will not have the s3 features like motion controls, camera, etc.
You're best bet is to try a couple out and find what works for you.

I'm gonna work on building vanilla JB rom as soon as the semester ends......don't have enough time till then :\ Should be convenient timing as a lot of the leg-work is already complete
I've already started working on one, but its not looking very promising so far. Its really really difficult getting the build to cooperate, and then once I finally do get it to cooperate thenaybe it won't take too long to get some of the initial kinks ironed out so people can start testing. But at least if I cannot get the bugs worked out enough to post it for people to use there is someone else who will begin working on it shortly. So hopefully we will have a pure AOSP ROM soon, one way or another.

Omega ROM
Give Omega ROM a try, there is an optional to remove all SGS3 default bloatware that comes with it when you flash the ROM.
I am using it because this ROM is having all other SGS3 features like the motion control, stock camera, etc.:good:

That is I9003 rom and will hard brick the I535.
I'm very happy with Jelly Beans ROM... It is aosp themed but touch wiz based! Best of both worlds if anybody was looking for an aosp ROM check this out

Not, but there's a CM10.1 ROm that looks like stock galaxy rom, I believe it's called Samsation.

You are right

Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
Yeah its called samsation and its based on cm 10.1 and its pretty cool. But u won't get multi window functionality. So I will recommend you halo paranoid android ROM by denisbold. Its freakingly awesome though its still in beta but with halo and pie controls u will feel multi window multitasking.

And just to be clear: do not try to flash a rom made for the Galaxy S3 (or any phone for that matter) on your Sensation; it will brick it.

None, every recently updated touchwiz rom that I know of is running 4.1.2 for this phone model.

There won't be a 4.2 Rom as the next update is 4.3 touchwiz.

i was wondering why was touchwiz kinda dropped from infuse development? like i saw remi ics and jb but no kk...but there aren't any ports of stock 4.4.2-4.4.3 touchwiz available...has no one tried to do it?....cause Hyperdrive rom looks awesome

The only Touchwiz drivers we have are from gingerbread. Touchwiz 4.4 is vastly different and re engineering the code would take a TON of work. Also, the infuse probably not run it efficiently and it is simply not worth the time to developers because this is not a popular device.

The Remics ROM appears to have stopped at JB. There is a Resurrection Remix but we would need their team to develop for the infuse.
