Hey!
I'm really bored with my Galaxy Nexus and I want to know is this possible to port Galaxy S III ROM to Galaxy Nexus like this way:
using Galaxy Nexus ICS ROM IMM76# and removing .apk files, leaving some .apk files what is needed, removing files from /system/framework/, removing files from permission folder in /system/etc/ adding Galaxy S III framework files and adding files to /system/lib what in not in that folder and removing the files which is not compatible for Nexus, e.g. other processor .so files and then removing some files from /system/bin/ and then replacing them and adding files to /system/bin from S III ROM and then adding /sytem/app/ apk files and then adding permission folder and some other files to /system/etc/ and then modifying init.rc
Could it work or what? I don't know how to build ROMs and I can't even do that because I have 32-bit PC not 64-bit what I need, I really want to use many S III ROM apps and features on Galaxy Nexus but nobody has maybe even tried to port S III ROM to Nexus..
Can someone developer try to port S III ROM to Galaxy Nexus?
This question is for Android developers not for normal Android users!
How could you be bored with the nexus

what are you specifically wanting? touchwiz? reason why there isn't as much development for it is because the nexus is a FAST phone, slowing it down with tw would just be counter-productive. s-voice is still being worked on. And both phones using different chipsets mind you

You mean pure android? You can try out Cyanogen mod 7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1176411

before u delete: why do u need a galaxy s2 stock rom? i don't see difference between galaxy w 2.3.6 stock rom and s2 2.3.6 stock rom
I think galaxy s2 ics rom. Some people from galaxy s section has ported it to their device

Moved to General. Please keep all questions in General :good:
I think the porting will be kinda difficult since we are having a different CPU, RAM&GPU from SG2, we may need to find a lot of drivers for it, but I think some of them are not available that's why Arco needs to write them from scratch
But why dont you just use a custom ICS rom instead?

Maybe he thought that porting is easier and faster than writing from scratch
The firmware of the galaxy w has a lot of bugs while GSII not.
The galaxy sII is also better optimized and has ics.
I thought it was the kernel containing drivers for the hardware.
The galaxy s has a very similar hardware to the galaxy w.
Please, there is anyone that could help me?

Absolutely not, only S Advance and SII in the S lines will get an update to ICS, BTW SGS may be having quite a fast progress because that phone came out much earlier than SGW so they got more developers and maybe supports.

Am i the only one who see no point in making this?
At the moment galaxy w developers working hard on more important and useful projects (cm9,10 etc)
I think nobody can help you with that.

Seriously, even if somebody is going to do it, the stable CM9 may still be released earlier than this lol
I guess what he means in his "port" is porting the looks, ui, sounds, etc., of Samsung Galaxy SII into Galaxy Wonder.

I have the apk from my Galaxy Note 2, but when I try to run it on my wife's Galaxy Nexus it fails to install. I can't figure out what i'm doing wrong. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

most likely it isnt compatible with the galaxy nexus, and it might need some touchwiz framework.

dang.....in my haste to make her happy and surprise, I didn't even think of that reality....
She won't permit me to root and install CM on her phone, but she covets my photowall live wallpaper.
I guess i'll have to hunt down a similar app..
I don't know if I should ask here, I'm from Samsung Epic 4G, another QWERTY Android around here. I've been searching for a way to make this baby cosmetically a GB+Touchwiz4 device but stuck with the launcher. All Touchwiz 4 mods that claim to have landscape mode don't go landscape for me
So that's why I got an idea and come over to ask for help: is there anyone who has the default Touchwiz 4 launcher (should be in /system/app/, odexed should be okay) that comes with GINGERBREAD, and is kind enough to upload one? Also the ICS version is welcome too though not necessary...
Thanks in advance

I am on my phone right now but..
Have you considered pulling the apk from osimood? Osimood is just debloated stock. You can find it in the android development section of these forums...
Sorry I can't link! Let me know if you need further help.

...I don't have a good enough network to download a full ROM of 300+MB just for an APK
Standalone package is welcomed, although if no one intends to do so I'll pull that myself. Thanks for the reply!

Okay. I'll pull it for you during lunch assuming I'm not too busy! (;

Um... Can't install (but it should, because my device is on TW framework and should be compatible with any stock TW launcher), and size looks far from expectation (versions I have all are larger than 1.4MB)... Is this odexed or deodexed? If it's the former... I'll go download an deodexed OsiMood myself 'cuz I can't deodex a bare apk
UPDATE: Oops, I forgot to clear the defaults... It installs, but when trying to go home, it FCs. I reckon it's still an odexed one that lacked components...

Hmm.
Are you sure the launcher is compatible? The frameworks may be different..

Umm, at least I've tried several devices' TW launcher (both 3 and 4) and they work okay. The device is on stock TW so I assume it supports Glide's variant of the launcher also.
Too bad, after seeking around your forum, I can only find one legit TW4 GB ROM (OsiMood) Any other of this kind around here?

If you can pull apart the pure stock tar it has the apk. Look for the thread rooting the captivate glide

I wanted to do that but I don't have a Linux PC and don't have time and energy to set up one... Senior III in China is painful
EDIT: I didn't find anything in the root thread, but found a way on Google that says MagicISO can open rfs files. Great, I'll try that.

After looking, I could not find anything, so maybe someone knows something. I would like to find a TW rom for my Verizon Galaxy Nexus that is 4.3. I have a galaxy gear and I use a GNEX for work, and a S3 for home. I would like to be able to pair my watch with my GNEX without having to root and side load the apks to the watch.
Thanks!

1. There is no touchwiz for any tuna phone. (There was for maguro but it wasnt stable).
2. If you want to flash a rom you need to root anyway..
