Hi guys,
i was wondering if its possible to flash my galaxy nexus to samsung galaxy s2 rom.
what i want is the exact gs2 rom(same launcher,contacts etc. but the official gs2 software) on my nexus device.
is there a way to do that? maybe with odin , to flash the nexus with sg2 kernel and rom ?
please help
Now now lets play nice, simpley telling the guy he needs a touch wiz rom or theme would be plenty, I think I saw a couple of these around in the dev area and theme areas. Touchwiz is the keyword as that's the style your after.

I really cannot understand such requests, if I really want touchwiz then i would sell my nexus and buy a GS2 or wait for GS3.
I am coming from an sgs, on the sgs the first thing I did was rooting, flashing cwm and then flashed a rom, after that I installed launcher pro to get rid of touchwiz, later I switched to cm7.
Now finally I have a nexus and for sure I will never go back to bloatware loaded device, my next device will be again a nexus.
Who in their right mind would want TouchWiz instead of a beautiful stock Android 4 experience?

It's called free will. Some people want things you don't, get over it.

Your absolutely right and its part of the fun of android all the freedom you get to do pretty much what ever you want. My view on miui is the same, I'm not a fan but its cool to have the option.

There's devs working on a few ports already, very early progress tho. I'm sure there's going to be more ports from others down the road. You can follow the progress here....

Android is all about options. It's a open source operating system people can do whatever they want. It's not like if a developer wants to invest his or her time into porting touchwiz would ruin your day.

While I think options are good for Android I have to agree about why would you get a Galaxy Nexus if you want TouchWiz? I say this because its very similar spec wise to the SGS2 and I'm sure the SGS3 will blow it out of the water. Unless you are just using it until the SGS3 comes out. Either way there is no need to call this guy/girl names because Android is all about options.
first I wanna clear things out, he didn't ask for just touchwiz launcher, he asked for a full gs2 rom, its a different story if he asked just for the launcher, that's the reason why I said he should better get a gs2 or wait for gs3.
Is it just me or does anyone else want that stunning GS3 lock screen hope someone will be able to port it with sound fx when a dump is available
Patience is a virtue..
It'll be implemented I'm sure, give it time.

It'd not anything new. They did in previous versions of touchwiz. Its a live wallpaper.

Don't care so much about the lock screen, however, some of the other software features would be nice.

I'm pretty new but how does this bounty system work? I would gladly set aside money for someone to port certain things or add certain features. I'm not keen on this lockscreen but if this is common practice, I would like to get involved.

i like the idea to just unlock it by just clicking somewhere on the sceen.
any updates?
thanks!
any one can do this?

The funny thing is that the people that have the phone and have the lockscreen don't like it as much.

Agreed. Im fine with the jellybean lockscreen.
Galaxy S3 dandelion LWP in the Play Store works pretty nice and has the ripple touch effect.
There's also an app from the same developer called Water Drop LWP that let's you use your own pictures with the ripple effect.
I liked the whole idea back on the final releases of GB/Cyano where you are able to tap on any part of the screen and choose the options. JB Lockscreen is fine but I dont like it to be tied down to the bottom area only, maybe the S3 lockscreen appeals to me only because you can unlock from any portion of the screen, and that sexy water ripple perhaps One thing is for sure, you don't need no damned Quad core to get that. But what I would love, would be that sexy MyWater.apk from Asus Transformer. That LWP was the BOMB! But doesn't work on JB, sad.

I am gonna sound completely n00bish but I am gonna ask anyways. Is there a way to flash a boot/down animation without a root?

not 100% sure, this flashes through recovery so if you have a custom recovery then it should work
The last time I looked into this I realized that a custom rom is actually needed because Samsung handles boot animations differently
I assume the same with this?

in the note 2 they are handled by the kernel. Im going to need the correct info to be able to make this work for the SGS3... can anyone confirm stock and non stock where the boot ani locations are?
Definitely need a custom kernel for the S3, not like stock Android devices. Heck I could post a symlink on my Atrix for the bootanimations and it worked.

I used the method suggested in this thread, and you can manually install bootanimations.zip using Root Explorer, have to be rooted to do this though.

Mod that you can flash on any jelly bean rom.
Can you customize the navbar to add more buttons / change shortcuts? That's a feature I can't live without.
nevermind, saw my answer in the other thread. it's aokp based so yes it does.
Any plans to update it to a 4.2 base? I would prefer to stay on the latest.

I mean don't get me wrong, I'm definitely checking this out when I wake up, downloaded and ready to go! But just curious, also yes that is toro ported and works just fine.
Edit: Fantastic ROM, has done stuff I've wanted for months.. and that's where it ends. I honestly will not use this ROM until it changes base. AOKP is the worst, that's my opinion but you got yourself a fantastic ROM here. If these apps and various other apks aren't framework dependent then I'll use some in a different ROM.
Again amazing ROM, you have done what I've been trying to do for months and namely the walkman widget is one. I hope you change the base.

It is great, but a little laggy. Will it get faster in the future? As well as this, the themes do not work. Any way to fix this? I am not trying to be mean, and by NO means am I a developer. I am amazed how you got this to work, and just want to help.
EDIT: The lag fixed itself, I dont know what happened. That is fine. Only problem is It wont reboot after first successful boot. It probably is Android Tweaker Pro. It is a great app, but also caused my stock rom to randomly reboot.

To answer a few of your questions. (Im updating thread now to)
1. I do plan on updating to 4.2 just need to update the code a bit and wait for the lockscreen to get ported.
2. Yes its based on AOKP 4.1.2
3. My rom is different because im going to take the time to keep it updated with anything new and im always constantly working on new ports to add to it. Its also more featureful, and its going to support toro and toroplus as soon as i get 4.2 working.
4. WHY YOU HATE AOKP SO MUCH? JK im using any base that i find most stable, im pretty sure im going to switch it for the 4.2 update since AOKP is constantly releasing updates for it and it will be hard to keep up with it.
5. Lag? I really have not noticed any lag besides the Xperia live wallpaper, thats sony's fault for not optimizing the app properly.
This ROM is running great. Loaded lean kernels latest stable 4.8 and all is good. A nice break from AOSP.

Oh, I've never heard of this then lol
The AOKP hate, its opinion but on both devices I've owned they been just so horrible and cheesy.. I don't like that swag button. The features are lacking. Honestly I'm on a stable base of 4.2.2, using Orca. The features are just amazing. I'm guessing because I tried the apks is that a lot of this framework doesn't really work for 4.2.2? I mean this is basically an Xperia ROM. I'm really impressed, I'm really hoping we can eventually get an actual port but I doubt it.
Secretly "I want a W8 port" love the style they use. Call me whacky lol.. But this is awesome you've made a breakthrough, or well your the only person who technically cares to do something like this. So I appreciate it this a lot man.
Edit: 4.1 doesn't bother me, we basically miss out on the status bar features. Just the base.

Just a quick note of congratulations and thanks, +Hyperrunner. I've been with Android since the first G1s were shipped, and this port reminds me of all the really inventive, well-done ports that we saw for the G1 back when other devices and models began to appear. I've been waiting for a really cool port to put on the GNex (which has had excellent but slightly bland firmware as stock from the beginning), and this Xperia port of yours really hits the spot. I think the AOKP base was a great choice. If it plays well with Linux Deploy and continues to be stable, this will become my primary ROM. Thanks a bunch, you deserve donations for your contribution to the Android community!
Thank you this ROM is pretty sweet love the look. Nice to have something other than stock for once

You say there is Bravia Engine, is it just not a setting and always on? If that is the case, awesome.
Yes, bravia engine is always on its more of a configuration then an app. Its always one and it helps display pictures better.

Well turns out these can't be used on this phone just yet.. samsung completely got rid of any reference of a bootanimation file relating to zips, they are all qmgs so until someone makes a kernel that supports custom boot ani's these can't be used
added stock nexus boot ani
Cant flash till later, but just wanted to ask to make sure, so were the bootanimation partitions/files/whatever found? so if i flash i shouldn't have any problems?
thought we couldnt flash till we had a custom kernel

just flash it and it will write the correc files, havent heard any problems yet.
Technically we can't but I spent hours (with a few others) figuring out how to, had to use a fi;e from the SGS4 but it's all good.
the files are all located in /system/bin for main executer and system/media for the animation and /system/media/audio/ui for sound
Amazing Job, just flashed, thanks for the aroma installer makes it so much easier, just to let you know, the sound off doesnt work, when booting I still get the tmobile sound.
I tried the HTCone boot you posted above
