I would like to install android 2.1 on Nexus S. Yes, you read that correctly. I want to backup my existing cyanogen 7.1 (android 2.3) install, install 2.1, create a backup of that, then be able to switch back and forth between 2.1 and 2.3 for testing android apps during development.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Do you know of any roms that might work? Any direction would be much appreciated!
Thanks!

sure that would work!
but there arent any android 2.1 nexus s roms. you would have to build your own from source, or port a 2.1 rom to the nexus s
Hmm...well then it does not look too promising for me . I have never built an android rom or ported one before. If anyone else has any other ideas I would love to hear them.
Maybe it would be possible for me to install an android 2.1 rom made for the Galaxy S?

the galaxy s rom wouldnt flash, unless you turned off the signature check in recovery. then you will probably just brick your phone.
The kernel I think would be the hard part of this.

Check if GravityBox (latest from Xposed) has that option
Why not just flash a 5.0 based custom ROM in the phone and enjoy??

I dont think you will get a stock android for OPO. You can browse thru various ROM's and get which is nearly equal to Stock but not 100% stock.

Stock 5.1 is not relased for yet the OPO. If you mean AOSP (Vanilla - Nexus series) android, there are some in the development section.

Yeah I meant vanilla Android. Was hoping one could download n5 or n6 rom and just install it. but seems it doesn't work this way.

Yes. Please dont do that.
Flashing ROM designed for other devices can leave your phone bricked.
This phone is built for cyanogen or Oxygen which is One Plus own software. The other you are asking about are for factory phones that use Android. The only phone true android is by Google.

Yes you can do it but , it was going to take long time , and you can also port it on any S3 lollipop rom and , if S6 firmware is marshmallow then use any marshmallow rom for S3 and try to port :good:
Hello, S6 or S7 lock screen can be ported to use on 9300?
Is "slide to unlock" case, the lower left corner to add "telephone" icon?
I know this is difficult, but could you tell me you will modify the s3 lock screen?

NO, you can't simply port the ROM. The damn S6 has, to begin with, a bigger screen resolution, so the UI would look weird AF. Second, the kernel can only be compiled by Samsung from THEIR own sources. And third, the most important aspect, i9300 has 1 GB of RAM. The closest device and the most suited would be the i9305.
CASE CLOSED. Please research before posting.

Yes I know everything about S6 and everybody knows here that it has bigger screen resolution and it also has big UI so we have to make it possible to fit in our S3 and second everyone knows that we have to do some changes in kernel also and S3 has 1 GB ram so I want to tell you that we are not trying to flash S6 rom on S3 okay so don't take any kind of tension because, everyone here test his rom perfectly before posting
And please forgive me if I have used bad words in this reply , After all we all are one community
Cheers
And sorry for my bad english :good:

Porting TouchWIz ROM's is possible but chances are nil unless the source ROM is from a Qualcomm Samsung device or it has a related Exynos device with same specs. Also due to the lack of proper source code and other info’s so porting can be a very hard job on Exynos, unlike Qualcomm devices it will be easy as cake due to some other Qualcomm devices shared the same RAM, processor and resolution and its dev-friendly nature.
What of the other exynos device s like the mega 2 ?

What is the difference between the Exynos 4412 and the 4415,all I know is they have a different clock speed but is that the only difference?
It's still possible to port mega 2 rom to note 2 but that would take a while or months to complete but it's still worth it tho.

The only theme I've come across that attempts to change the framework to past versions is this one for CMTE. However, it hasn't been updated since January '16, so there may be compatibility issues.
Thx for the answer i will try
