I wonder if we can use this leaked rom ported to our T-Mobile SGSII? Kinda thought it didn't take much to get their roms ported over to ours? Any clarification would be helpful. Thanks and please don't flame me too much if it's a stupid question.

No it can't. Different processor. Different hardware. Different everything.
Use the ICS port that we already have.
I believe it was ported already. did you check the dev sections.

Thanks. I guess there are just too many GalaxySIIs to keep up with 'em all. Hey though, maybe ours will be next...yeah right. lol

Sorry if this question is in the wrong section or has already been asked. Seeing as it has to do with development I thought this section would be appropriate, and I couldn't find anything else really helping on this subject.
What I am wondering is does anyone have or know where a good guide on how to port a ROM from one device to another is? I have done some AOSP work in the past, so I'm not COMPLETELY new to ROM building, but I have had no success yet with porting anything.
Theres a flash patch somewhere that might work depending on what rom u want to port

he's talking about the IncredibleDoes AOSP flashpatch. Replaces files in AOSP builds to Inc ones.
I think IncredibleDoes was working on some sort of thing that made porting easier. I did a quick search but didn't find it, but it is around. Either way, he was definitely our most active dev in terms of porting. Best way to find him is on twitter @IncredibleDoes.

Oh okay, I just did a quick search for "Flash Patch" and found the one you are talking about, plus another that was built off that one. Thank you.
If I was going to learn how to port, after learning how to use the kitchen, I would look at some roms that are already ported and see how they did it.
First and most recent one that comes to mind is preludedrew's gingerbread rom.
Might even want to pm him about it as he is pretty active.

To correct this, Evervolv is not a 'port'. It is specifically built for the Droid Incredible platform. Exactly like CyanogenMod, which without them/that mod, Evervolv wouldn't have been possible. Sorry just wanted to clear that up =P
So I've done the whole search thing, and XDA now offers a cool display of related threads when I start a new one...but I haven't found something related to Cyanogen Mod 7.1 for our variant of the GSII.
I hesitate to flash cyanogen because 1. it's not stable anymore (according to their forums), and 2. our model of the GSII is arguably not like any of the other GSII's because we have a different chipset.
Had anyone tried to flash cyanogen mod onto this phone or does someone know that it works?
Thanks in advanced!
10-22-2011 EDIT: So people don't need to sort through the clutter, the answer is no there isn't CM7.1 for the T-Mobile variant of the GSII and no one should attempt to flash the one from cyanogenmod's website for the GSII.
Thanks for answering my questions!
Cyanogen mod roms are built specifically for each device. Don't ever try to flash a build from another device. Even the ATT and International galaxy s2 have differently builds even though they're pretty much the same phone

I believe CM isn't even available for our phone yet. Only for the other SGS2 models.

DO NOT attempt to flash roms that were not specifically made for our devices! The ONLY roms that are safe for the TMO GS2 can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1332
Thanks for the information. I thought that would be the case.

None of the unlock solutions from the market work on our devices. If you are a T-Mobile customer, you can call in and request the unlock code, otherwise you can get it by faxing in your sales receipt. There is a good discussion of the topic here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18643213

My statement was in reference to the GSII only. Users reported too many bugs...but again that's not for our GSII.
If you check their forum there is no more "stable mod" link to 7.1 for the GSII.
The mytouch4g should be fine.

I apologize to you if my question was naive. At least I didn't go posting in the developer forums.
The development seemed active enough for this device that I was considering there was a chance of availability. I'm also not rushing or demanding anything from the developers/developer community. I also give thanks and donate to them.
Other's have graciously answered my question, and to them I say THANKS.
I'm sure some of you are aware of Galnet, I wonder how hard it would be to port a modded MIUI over to the Inc2? Which do you think would be the most feasibly compatible?

I am not a dev, but if the incS has it....it sounds feasible to me.

If INC-S has it like mentioned above, shouldn't be too bad to port..
I'd like to see how it runs myself. It sounds interesting. Although, I looked for a few minutes, and couldn't find a list of changes from the stock MIUI. What exactly did they change?

I was just wondering if there is a port or prehaps a ROM that is as close to the S4 as possible. I can't really find anything.

Lol, I don't really necessarily mean a port. Just a themed ROM. I know I had one before that looked pretty much identical but I can't remember what it was for the life of me.

If you go to..oh the S4 thread and look for .5 seconds you would knowbwhat youre talking about and not mislead anyone...just saying. There are roms. I have asked around thiugh and it seems there may not be a port because of the different hardware...not sure though

I actually checked before I responded but only the US variants and there weren't any as of today. I didn't look at the international since I figured those would be way harder to port so if I happened to offend you in any way my bad. I seriously don't see how I'm misleading people

Roadblock is going to be drivers. Sprint Note2 is Exynos, CDMA Note3 is Qualcomm800.
I thought a leaked build of 4.3 was released for the international note 2. That would probably be our best bet
