Let's see if we can do it

Awsome, it all starts here!

I can fix wifi and other things but i dont have power right now soi cant work untill i do... also what kernel are you using for this? It has to have init.d support for themes to work and also the euro galaxy s2 version has the camera working last time i checked.

I'd be curious to know what kernel as well. You try eri n apns for service? Wifi might be the same fix we've used for 2.3.5+ issues in the past as well since our kernel is technically built for 2.3.4.

Im pretty sure data wont work ever without an aosp kernel... codeworkx has one for us on his gihub but every time i try to compile i get errors... it hasnt been tested tho because they dont have the phone yet from what i know.

hey barnacles,
if you grab the 'official' rom from miui.com or even the int'l sgs2 miui port from xda, all you need to do is swap the zimage with one of the epic 4g touch's (like LoStKernel) and it will boot up and function (maybe what the OP of this thread did, didn't download to see). Data and wifi were no go. If I remember, the cameras were working though unlike what this OP says. I've been working on this here and there but I definitely dont have as much free time as I'd like as I'm getting ready to move to the other side of the earth.
I'll be more than happy to answer questions and/or help development going as soon as I can put some time aside to work on this.

I'm not a fan of the MIUI ROM(its to iPhone-ish IMHO) but I still wanted to say thank you for this post. Although I know it wasn't its purpose, it did point me to the SkyRocket's Development, and Themes & Apps Section, and man do they have some goodies over there, which I never would've found had it not been for this post, so thanks again!

so you essentially made small tweaks and got aosp based rom from sgs2 int to boot? if so, nice. I wonder if this works with CM7 as well.

Omggggg we need to get this rolling. I thought someone was already working on a port for MIUI? What is this for? Excited nonetheless lol.

[MOD] Skyrocket ROMS on Hercules- This covers stock Samsung ROMS

Just Thought id share. The skyrocket roms work on our phone too. Just flashed the Alien ROM just to see. Everything worked fine, granted there was some att crap in wifi settings that is useless to us, but at least we know we can use their stuff too. I also flashed jugs kernel with the rom as Im sure the kernel is different, but maybe not. Anyway, just wanted to let you know. Oh, they just got an ota to 2.3.6 yesterday, ill post the system dump here in a few. Hopefully the devs will move to that base.
*I thought I'd throw a zip similar to what they have together. I think this zip will do the trick. Give it a shot and let me know if auto rotate is still borked. I dont think it will be but I have CM7 setup and working audio so I dont want to ruin that Let me know and Ill fix issues if there is any.
Conversion
*NOTE: This is for Samsung ROMS only. Do not try it on CM7 or anything aosp.

ooooo this is interesting.....hopefully they get some good devs

By the way, the Alien ROM for the skyrocket kicks ass on our phone. I flashed it with whatever kernel it comes with and I've noticed a reduction in the stutter.
It does have a an issue with our accelerometer it seems though.

Mikey thanks for sharing

Does this Alien rom have anything special that our rooms don't have? Kind of what to try it out, but not sure if it's worth it. Any other bugs besides the ones stated?

The Alien Rom is excellent as far as I'm concerned, if we could figure the orientation issue out, it would be just about perfect.

Hey immunity, how did you get superuser to work, it's been so long since I've done that I forgot I keep getting "failed to find instaled su binary"

Hopefully we get our OTA soon! Would rather keep up the trend of basing t989 roms on ACTUAL t989 roms. Don't like ATT crap sprinkled all through my Tmobile phone lol.

Anybody having vibration issues? Can't seem to get any vibration at all. Also, I keep getting "Device Management" force closes. Everything else works great though!

Would flashing the t989 uvlc ICS kernel over this cause a potential brick due to it being based around 4.0.3 and this rom being 4.0.4, or just a potential boot loop?

Thanks very much.. can anyone point me to the autorotatefix?

NO mobile data on Koodo T989D running new AOKP Jellybean 1

So I am on a KOODO Samsung Galaxy II X and have been running CM9 no problem.
I wanted to run the new AOKP Jellybean 1 and it works great except I have no mobile data. Everything else seemd to work ok including WIFI.
I wiped thoroughly during flashing with darkside super wipe, and cache wipe ll and tried a few times so I dont think it was an install issue but I am a noob so any help would be appreciated.

Now to the OP, check your apn setting and let us know if thats what the problem was.

thanks for the tip , there are no koodo settings just telus and I suppose they are non functional. It works if I add settings manually add them from my cm9 rom. is there a way to get all the mms settings etc installed besides manually adding them?

Yeah I love this phone! $300 for a phone easily worth twice as much. By far it is much better than my Samsung Galaxy Ace. Not to mention the fact I have 4g on this phone. I tested and it's 10x faster than my ace
Anyway, hope it helped

I have heard about these issues with gapps. The rotation issue is a very common problem and I know that there is a .zip file that you should be able to flash in CWM recovery. I'm not sure where it is, but it should be in the Development section of our phone somewhere.
Now for the external sd card issue, I haven't really heard much about that. I myself am on the stock firmware so I haven't encountered many issues, but this quite possibly could be a common bug for that particular ROM. My suggestion, use search and look through the specific thread for the ROM. Hopefully you should be able to find some answers there.
ANyway, I'm glad to hear that the data is working at least :thumbup:

yes thats weird cause I did full a wipe using darkside super wipe and cache wipe as well as factory reset. Ive gone back to cm9 for now. I dont have endless time to track this stuff down.
I would use the Jedi Mind Tricks rom but I believe it looks like the stock samsung rom which I find kind of ugly, even though it may be very functional. Although I havent researched it that much.

Could You tell me if the tmobile roms work on the koodo s2x
also if yo could link me to your roms

[GUIDE] How to port ROMs

This guide is going to show you how to port ROMs to our Sprint GS3!
Before we begin, please download the programs 7zip and Notepad++ as we will need them. And get a Stock JB ROM for our Device(Preferably DeOdexed)
So lets get started!!!
1) Download the ROM you want to port
2) Open it using 7zip
3) Replace the kernel/boot.img with ours
4) Go to /system/lib/modules. Delete everything and replace with ours
5) then go to /system/lib/hw. Delete and replace everything with ours
6) For the Hard keys and soft keys to work go to /system/usr/keychars and delete and replace then go to /system/usr/keylayout and delete and replace with ours
7) Now go to /system/etc and delete the following and replace with ours:
- vold.fstab
- /wifi
- /ppp
Congrats! You have ported your first ROM! But please do the devs, and myself a favor and don't spam the Development Subforum with ports!

I'm thinking the same thing. If so, somebody should start a single thread (idk which section) that houses all of these types of ports. This just sounds too simple to work though.

I believe that there is a program that allows you to link a rom to port with a rom from your device.. It processes it.. And spits out a supposed, ported rom. I don't remember where I read it. Maybe this is the manual method... But, I agree.. It sounds too easy

Yes, it's that easy. But porting,to me, is like the simplest form of creating a custom ROM. Next is theming and modding, then comes building from source.
Nonetheless, hopefully this motivates some people to get their hands dirty with some work
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

This is good for cm based roms or roms for same device but separate carriers (sprint, Verizon, etc.) But for most others it would take much more. Just have fun and don't go trying to port htc sense right away lol If you're lucky you won't have to edit framework or anything
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

If we did this would we be able to you the mods/morphs that the ROM comes with? This sounds cool and all but Sprint I believe and I could be wrong are the only one with JB Final others are leaks. Don't want to go down that road again.

I did all of this just as you said, in attempting to port an AT&T gs3 rom to my Sprint gs3. It gave me an error when I tried to flash it in CWM. I think it was error code 6? Any idea what I did wrong?

Yes, it's that easy. But porting,to me, is like the simplest form of creating a custom ROM. Next is theming and modding, then comes building from source.
Nonetheless, hopefully this motivates some people to get their hands dirty with some work

I tried porting the gnote 2 sprint rom to my gs3 but I keep getting a status 1 error in cwm. I guess its not that easy. But I did notice that there wasnt a modules folder in the gnote 2 rom that I downloaded but I still added it in there. Any thoughts??

This is good for cm based roms or roms for same device but separate carriers (sprint, Verizon, etc.) But for most others it would take much more. Just have fun and don't go trying to port htc sense right away lol If you're lucky you won't have to edit framework or anything

I guess the OP forgot to mention this would only work with ROMs similar to our phones, for example, other GS3 variants. The Note 2 has an Exynos chip, not a snapdragon S4 like ours, so porting will require a bit more effort than what the OP stated.

This is where i started or, i ported a rom from the tmo s3. It may seem difficult at first but trust me when you're done you'll think its a cakewalk

I wanna port a rom of another device to my phone, the main hardware is similar except that, that phone has a wvga resolution and mine has a hvga. Will this method still work?
