I was watching a review today of Paranoid Android for the i9300 & it looked amazing! I've been enjoying the new TW ui, much to my surprise, so I've been taking advantage of its many new features, but tablet mode was looking so great on the 4.8 inch screen! I've only ever really tested it much on my old Sensation, but the smaller screen with the lesser resolution made it seem not so ideal. I really think it could take advantage of the beautiful bigger screen of the T999! It's so unique and it would give us a whole new way to use our phone. Does anyone know how to port this to our phone? Maybe someone here is friendly with the Paranoid Roms development team? Any ideas or insight?
PS: I've tried playing around with the dpi without much success . I couldn't seem to get the phone to behave as a tablet like with some other devices, and it didn't seem to be very stable after modifying it...

Oh God yes, lol! I was using the Sensation quite a bit before the gs3 was released because there's a lot of development & it can be a fun device to play with, but it's not worth comparing to the gs3. I'll probably always keep my sensation because I don't like to get rid of any of my phones, and I'm kind of a phone junkie, but it's been on loan to a friend for a few weeks now. The Gs3 will be a huge upgrade if the Sensation is the only phone you've been using.
It probably will get ported I also can't wait I used it on my galaxy nexus and love the Rom, the tablet ui is amazing and makes thin easier IMO

From what I have heard it should be a pretty easy port seeing as it's based off of cm9/10. I 'll probably give it a try tomorrow and upload a test build for you to try out, but im not making any promises because this week is busy for me.
EDIT: what one would you like me to try JB or ICS?

Well, if your asking what I personally would like, then you freakin" rock sir! I suppose if I were to choose which I'd like to see first it would be a cm9 base, simply because odds are it would be the most stable. A jb build would be incredible, but I generally only flash roms that are fully functional & can be used as a daily driver. I'm not the flashaholic I once was mostly because I don't have the time to be. If your able to get it booting & its stable that would be fantastic! I've personally always looked at PA as a rom that's more for something like the Note, but I think the gs3 is just large enough that I want to run with it & reinvent how I use my primary phone. If we get a 100% functional build, I may never look back, but like I said above, I've never really driven it hard before?
I got it booting but I have no signal wifi works though. I'm no dev so maybe someone can help me.
I have no signal cause it made me lose my IMEI
OK so I restored my Nandroid and I have my IMEI back. My IMEI said unknown in phone settings so im guessing that it was just the roms fault not a wiped IMEI? anyway here are some pics and I will upload the build. Root doesn't work as well as pad control but it's a start. Any dev is welcome to take this and use it to try and make it more functional.

Im pretty sure it's because the permissions aren't properly set for the pad.prop among others. I will have a look at the updater script tomorrow.

Wow Bro, that was fast! I know nothing about developing or porting, but I've just been starting to look into a few threads on the 101. It's definitely nothing that I'll pick up overnight, lol! Maybe if you post the build in development someone will work on it with you? I never thought I'd say this, but TW is running so smooth & has so many nice touches on FreeGS3 that I probably won't flash anything until this is running strong or a super stable Jellybean Rom of any flavor drops.

Ya I'm kind of a noob myself learning as I go.
I love PA! Hope you get some other devs to help you get this fully functional.
Once they finalize CM10, a port of JB PA would be awesome!

+1! When we get PA stable, that will get me away from FreeGS3 to check it out. Every day that I use FreeGS3 I fall more I think love with Red's tweaked TW build! I would run this on any device, there are alot of great features in TW now, & Red added even more. I love the tablet style apps though, they are so much more funtional. If I could keep a TW base, but get tablet mode for all my apps then that would be the perfect rom for me. I don't think that'll ever happen, so I'll have to run PA for a week once it's finished & see which I prefer.

I see a few things that aren't perfect just looking through the zip. Wont know more until i get it flashed but this shouldn't be too difficult.
I fixed ril. But it broke boot.
Ril paths in build.prop should be
rild.libpath=/system/lib/libril-qc-qmi-1.so
rild.libargs=-d /dev/smd0
But somehow that breaks boot.
I know that 4.2 just recently started rolling out for the gsm version of the galaxy nexus..
With that being said the CDMA galaxy nexus I.e Verizon and sprint will have to wait til our carriers
Release our updates knowing Verizon it will probably take years lol
But will someone port a 4.2 ROM for us ?
Is it possible? Or does anyone know or have
Some sort of leak images?

It'll happen just like it did last time. First it goes to the HSPA version, then CDMA gets a port.
Oh hai! You must be new here.
There could very well be a GSM port available at the end of today, depending on how devs feel today. This is what happened with 4.1 for the Verizon Gnex, the GSM version came out, and maybe 12 hours later, a dev ported it to the Verizon Gnex. :good:
Thank you for the feedback.. yes I am new I know I'm like a year late but I recently picked up a Verizon galaxy nexus,and with all this stuff releasing today
Nexus 4.. and jb 4.2 I'm excited to run 4.2 on this phone like I said being on Verizon I know it'll take them forever to release that build so I was just curious
If we can get some sort of port
cyanogenmod posted on G+ that 4.2 is being pushed to AOSP now... then you just have to wait for the devs to build one shouldn't be long if you are on toro I would keep an eye for mmuzzy or mwalt to put one up they are pretty quick about it once it hits AOSP

Blue Glow Outline on gesture
Anyone no what happened to the blue glow on the 4.2 gesture keyboard? Or is it just my phone that's missing it?
I meandered on to the development section and was quite surprised to see such recent ROMS and developers working on a cell phone that is turning 3 years old in 5 months. Many EVO buyers have had their contracts expire and are able to upgrade to a new phone. There are much faster phones out there, with better specs that are possibly more interesting to develop for, because you might reach a larger user base. My question to the Devs is why are you sticking to the original EVO? Don't get me wrong, I am a current original EVO owner myself so by all means, keep up the good work, just curious as to why you stuck to such an old device.
Simple answer is its fun! Its a great way to get practice and many devs have friends in the forum. So why walk away completely? If you still have it, you can test away on things you try to build.

Sure. Since you don't have service on the phone, it's basically a really small tablet. All the basic functionality will work, and there is always WiFi.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Please, be specific. The ROM is fully functional outside of the things that require new drivers for Android 4.x, i.e. front-facing camera, and WiMAX.

It's actually SDX Developers...and yes the Moment was the "Evo" of it's time, sadly however, it's time has passed. I'm a new convert over to XDA from SDX, having to give last rites to my Moment a month ago. Really only one active ROM still being worked on (UberMoment 1.6 - props to TheTehk17 for hanging in there :good: ). They never got a GB Rom fully functional (CM7 was close), all dev was, and still is, Froyo. Major hardware limitations and lack of support will probably keep any further ROM upgrades forthcoming.
Inherited an OG to use for now - great to see all the work being done! Waiting for the arrival of the S4 or M7 for upgrade, until then enjoying the plethora of ROM's available!
Upon upgrade, I will be passing the OG on to any dev here who will continue to put it to good use!

Yeah, I never thought the Moment could successfully run Froyo, unless there was a hybrid Froyo/GB Rom. I dev'd a nice ROM for the Moment, but I think I took all the links down a few months ago.

The devs did a pretty good job porting over Froyo ROMs from the Intercept and Transform, and got those pretty functional. Otherwise, the phone would have been stuck on 2.1 Eclair! As mentioned, they have a somewhat working CM7 - buggy, but it does boot up.! The dev that ported that moved on leaving no one to work out the kinks.
So, for me, I'm like a kid in a candy store with not only GB Roms, but ICS, JB, AOSP.......and Sense too! Hell, I'm in hog heaven
lol. yeah, you can flash a different ROM every day for a year, going back to 2.1 if you wanted to

As you may know, Steve Kondik, creator of CyanogenMod, has our device. As of now, he has a working version of CM running on it! It's not finished, official, or even released as alpha yet, but it's great to know. Sources:

This is great news! First, we find out the bootloader is unlocked, now CM is already in the works!
Another bit of info from Steve's G+ post: our device's code name is "jfltetmo".
Nice! I'm amazed at how quickly everything is coming together. I still don't even have the phone yet and there's already a root and ROMs are coming together.
Thanks for the heads up - things are getting exciting.

I love CM, and on a related note (because I know it'll be jokingly mentioned), my name is not a ripoff of his, I've been using this handle since 2001, long before Android was even rumored to be fathomed by Google. Time to start seriously considering the S4 as an option.

Looks like I won't need to release a ROM.

i didnt realize how much i hate touchwiz untill i got the s4. love the features like air gestures and smart scroll, but i still need me some aosp non bloated goodness.

Same here, I thought "oh i'll just throw Nova launch on there and everything will be dandy". Nope, to many Samsung customization on everything. Its annoying. The settings menu is a major downgrade from stock jellybean.
I'm hoping for AOKP to support, but i'll gladly take CM if it comes 1st. Need my AOSP goodness too.
Hmm I'm thinking of picking this up ASAP. Good to know the support is already underway. I might hold of for a bit but I'm pretty confident in Samsung devices. My experience with HTC has been horrible.

I highly doubt we will ever see a TW lollipop rom for our devices, our phone has become highly unpopular and most devs are gone.

Don't feel bad, our phone is still a good device. Since our device has many variants (one for each carrier) our only hope would be if any devs from the other variants work on their devices and one of our devs port those roms to us, similar to what happened with the kitkat roms. I'm not changing my phone anytime soon, it handles everything I throw at it. Or device was ahead of its time, similar to many vintage sports cars lol

I totally agree. The S3 was ahead of it's time and I'm starting to see a 3year ledgendary device trend with Samsung. Word is, the S6 will be grand. Propabaly I'll see it fit to upgrade then. I prefer Vanilla ROMs though, so I will be looking forward to AOSP, AOKP and CM build of Android 5.0. I can see some gorgeously awesome themes for Android 5.0 new material design with the theme engine so no Touchwiz for me

Side note... You will get a /data error while flashing but ignore that because it flashes after that error. First boot takes a long time. Some had to factory reset after flash or battery pull during first boot. I had to go back into recovery and factory reset but booted afterwards. Took almost 10 minutes to boot. But running it now and it works great for an alpha build.

I agree with what your saying about 3 year legendary device. The S3 is very well built, like the Vibrant. So my guess is, S6, if there's going to be one, will be as final of the S4 - S5 experiments.
