[Q] Just a question about ported Android versions - General Questions and Answers

How does it work?
I mean.. I currently own an LG G2.
Everybody is waiting for the android 5 CloudyG3 port but it's not comming because there is no matching Kernel. So from what I understood, only when LG releases the Android 5 version to the G2, there will be a CloudyG3 ROM based on Lillipop.
But then I see my old Samsung Galaxy S running 4.4.2 on a custom rom, when the last official version was like 2.3.6.
So.. How come the G2 can't get the 5.0, but the SGS can run 4.4.2?

Just because the hardware can support higher version but the vendors want you to buy the new phones..!
But the developers still can develop a 4.4.2 rom for galaxy S...

I know. What I ask is, why do we have to wait for LG's official Lollipop kernel so that LG G2 will get a lollipop rom?
Why doesn't it work the same with SGS?

Of course we can port android lollipop on LG G2. We can port for example CyanogenMod, or other roms.
I think there is an unofficial CyanogenMod rom for LG G2.

I think sami doesnt support anymore us. But u can install stock 4.2.2. Or cyanogenmod...as custom rom

I think that it will be more difficult even to have a fully functional cyanogenmod because of the changes in the surfaceflinger...TI is out of the market so we won't get further official support i guess...See Galaxy nexus also...
Impossible to have an Official 4.4 update, but I don't doubt that we'll have an stable and fully functioning 4.4 via CyanogenMOD.
but our device is fully capable of running 4.4.x .. this is unfair thats y i dont go for any sammy devices

Our device can run PURE 4.4 smoothly, but Samsung adds crap (aka Touchwiz) to Android...
proof? Official 4.2.2 is a HORRIBLE firmware!
Samsung announced that 4.2 would be the Tab 2's last update. At this point, if you want newer OS versions, ROMs are your only choice. 4.3.1 is pretty standard for roms nowadays. PAC-Rom developers said that they are already working on a 4.4 build for the tab 2, but it will be a while before it's out.

What is the "regular" version of KitKat?
There is no regular version of kit kat as all versions of kit kat are custom ROMs. This phone is still on 4.3 officially.

No idea. MIUI is not developed here. The only thing here are some ports as XDA doesnt support MIUI

[Q] Are we going to get Android 5.0?

Are there any developers that will do a port of lollipop? If you are one of them, when do you believe it will be (almost) finished?

What's The Latest KitKat (4.4) ROM Available?

I'm looking for a KitKat ROM to downgrade from Lollipop. Preferably, I would like something as close to AOSP/CAF as possible.
Anyone know of anything?
Thanks.

They're all in the dev section. Just look at the remaining KitKat ROMs and see which are still being updated.
Hi, bought a used Oneplus One today with CM12.1 nighty today. Changed the governor to conservative and have to say: This is the smoothest Android experience I've ever had (much better than a S6). 60fps almost everywhere.
Couldn't complain
About caf: Isn't this the special cm kernel tree which is somewhat incompatible to aosp?
