Would it be possible to port a sense rom on the galaxy s2? Even though I know everything is different.
How would it be possible to port it? I know there is a sense rom on the nexus s gsm.
if a port hasn't successfully been done yet I don't think It ever will. I had a vibrant before and the sense project they had going for that never made it out of alpha. Not saying it's entirely impossible but it is a lot of work porting an HTC rom to a samsung phone.
I too would love a sense ROM. Doesn't hurt to cross your fingers, throw salt over your shoulder AND hold your breath, right?

it would be possible, it's like the LG custom "theme" on macnut. The good thing is also that the Amaze 4G has the smae processor as the T989 which makes it easer to port a rom or the theme. Btw the Amaze 4G also has a ICS leak...

No just because two device has the same processors doesn't make it any easier to port. HTC sense like touchwiz will always be closed source. Rils drivers down to the changes in the kernel are very different. Is it possible yes, But it's a lot of work without any propertiarty stuff available. It's even worse then making your own ics rom from source. For a device that is not a nexus.

you are actually ignorant that is a saying cant never could it means there is nothing that you cant do. if you put your mind on doing it you would succeed.

Well, devs are staying behind because we are all starting to see how the game is going. Too many Android phones are coming out at once and money ain't coming any faster. I'm sure if people paid devs to come dev for the device, we'd have more devs...so if you want to pay for someone's E4GT, go right on ahead. If you don't want to, just wait it out. This phone is already pretty sweet and the problems we do have, a dev probably won't be able to fix those..so..yeah.
This phone is sick dude, just enjoy it and be happy that you don't own a device where you have to depend on the devs just to be able to get through the day.
Having it from release date, the OG Epic did NOT have terrible development. Just not the development some people wanted. And there were "some" people who were ungrateful and rude, like with any device. This one already has great developers, and we are slowly getting more. Be patient.

The Epic scene was pretty good. A lot of people came from that Evo...smh, the Evo messed the whole game up if ya ask me. Now people willl sit around and say their phone is garbage if it doesn't have the same dev scene that the Evo had.
Little do most people know that the Evo was damn near the same device as the Desire, N1 and Dinc. So most of the reason why its scene was so great was because a dev from any one of those phones could just port their roms over and all they had to do was swap out the hardware files and the kernel. Other than those 2 things, everything was damn near exactly the same.
Yeah I think we just have to be patience

I've seen a few well known devs from the HTC Evo post here, so I'm pretty optimistic.

what do we really need here? cyanogen and miui and stock roms. that is asking alot but that would be epic. for now i am loving starburst. love asop but don't remove touchwiz launcher and widgets. just my opinion.
I had the First Epic and the Dev's there were GREAT. We may not have had as many as some phones like the Evo but the ones we had did great work and who needs 100 roms to choose from when the ones we had did the trick. We had some great Roms and Themes and the fixes came pretty fast.
I have not rooted this phone yet mainly because I have not felt the need. The only thing I am missing is WiFi Tether. I am sure when this LOS gets worked out and the devs get their hands on the original source we will see much more. I am grateful for anyone that helps make this phone better, but it is pretty dang good out of the box. The best I have ever had.

Now?? pffft what are you talking about? They want that **** out on launch day! wtf you slacking devs that dont get paid and do this all for free?? Get back in the sweatshop and do work that requires more thinking than a sweatshop worker in china but gets "paid"(donations) less! These devs should worship us and do what we tell them when we tell them! When a phone is released that very day we expect EVERY MOD imaginable, every "bell and whistle" and a choice of at least 10 roms and 10 kernels..

sense is pretty hard to get working on a non HTC phone. I dont think I've ever heard of a sense rom (that fully worked right) ported over to a non htc phone(at least that I know of). It's not impossible(from what I hear) but it is very very very difficult(so I hear)

I currently have the Nexus-S 4G, running Oxygen ROM 2.3.2 and LOVE this ROM. but want a bigger screen phone, so looking at the Epic Touch 4G. I tried the ICS ROM for my Nexus-S that just released this weekend, and I liked it alot, so it got me wondering, before I get the Epic 4G, will wait for a god ICS ROM.
How long until a stable version is out roughly ? I don't mean 100% rock solid perfect like the official Galaxy-Nexus, but something good enough to be used as a daily. December or so ?
It's anybodys guess.. We are all wondering the same thing but obviously no one knows.. Even the developers that are working on a port don't know. There is no use asking.. people are working on this as a hobby and Samsung doesn't even have a firm date on an ETA. Your best bet is to keep tabs on ICS progress in our development section..
One thing.if phone has good hardware,it will run ics.even htc hero,wich is a low-end device runs it already.so for your phone,its just a matter of time.and one more thing,dont ever ask devs for ETA's.they are not full time developers,this is mor like a hobby for them
forget asking when an ICS rom will be available, I'm more concerned with finding out when the MR from Sprint is coming.

The source that Google releases is always for the current dev phone, in this case the galaxy nexus. Our phone has completely different hardware. Porting ics to the epic touch from scratch is a full time job that carries a salary of 50,000-100,000, I wouldn't hold your breath for someone to do it for free. So in other words, whenever Sprint/Samsung releases/leaks something for the epic touch

**ABOUT THESE ROMS**
These Roms are basically all WIP. They are for any dev that wants to take them over. Im switching to the sgsII and trading my ns4g.. which means I can not work on these
THIS ALSO MEANS THAT I CANNOT PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT FOR THESE!!
Also MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
I thought of this as a big christmas present, or holiday present, for you guys out there. Its also kinda a farewell gift, so enjoy
any dev is encouraged to take these roms and fix them, just give credit if you re-post it
I will have the rom, the download, and a not working list for each port. I will not have updates for these, this is up to other devs.
Some of these may have weird updater scripts, I didnt check them before upload because I like surprises

-wifi, bluetooth ( I realized that i suck at these, you will see in the other lists )

Sense 3.5 Port (2.3ish) (Radiance HD from the Evo 4g Forums! ) ( adb shows mBlockInputEventsBlocked is true when screen or buttons are pressed, so it knows they are there...)
not working
-touchscreen
-buttons
-most likely wifi and bluetooth
This rom seems to be completely functioning, i have recieved messages and it plays notifications, the touchscreen just doesnt work. So after first boot the screen shuts off, and thats it. This would be a good one to fix

You guys really want TouchWiz? It's terrible. I have an Epic and all we try to do is get rid of it. I guess TouchWiz 4 is ok though.

Many (myself included) felt the same way about Sense. I HATED Sense with a passion when I had my Evo, but some people actually wanted it ported over to the nexus.
It's bizarre... those that have a bloated mess of a launcher/fork want vanilla or themed aosp - and nexus owners with vanilla aosp want the bloated Sense mess.

I personally just wanted something other than stock vanilla, miui, tweaked stock vanilla, cm7 vanilla, themed stock vanilla etc.. so I went for random things that maybe not everyone wanted really bad, like the droid razr port or sense 3.5.
I started to hate aosp on my nexus, it was the worst thing and i would have rather flashed froyo sense..

I've used MIUI on a few devices. I never liked it much. Its merely ok IMO. I just stick with rooted stock on my GN2. I've tried JellyBomb and its just ugly lol.
The way we have the Sbrissen thread I would put up some money if a DEV who OWNS this phone will make a stable version of MIUI. I would not donate to someone porting this who does not actually have the Sprint GN2. Anyway, I guess it's a dead point because there doesn't seem to be anyone willing to take on the task.

The way everybody talks about Jelly bomb, its the best thing since sliced bread. Although I have it on my phone, I too think its the ugliest rom I have ever seen. The only reason I have it now, as there is a lack of anything else, atm.
I never used Miui, and would probably never use it. This phone really needs more Roms, period
I'd totally be down to run MIUI.
