Im not a dev, I respect all the devs that contribute here. But I have to ask. Why is it that were not seeing ports from the gsm galaxy s 2 roms. I know the radios are different but most of the other hardware is the same. Seems like you could patch in the cdma radio and at least get some things to boot. I come from the OG evo scene and I guess I'm still spoiled. Ports from virtually any released phone showed up all the time. I guess I'm just so sick of touchwiz. Im craving some aosp action. Good luck guys I'm rooting (pun intended) for it.

The short answer is that if it were that easy it would've been done already.

First off dam he busy and does great work, my question is why is he still working on a at&t rom when we now have a tmobile. I see he has 3 roms going at the same time, some carzy **** I think he suffers from insomnia or is just that good and quick. He just updated a buggy at&t leaked rom he made and not the tmobile one. Just curious if anyone has a answer didnt want to clutter up dev section.

He created the two separate threads (one for Tmobile leaks and one for att leaks) Because the att leaks are generally further developed, meaning its more stable and the att leak is 4.0.4 vs 4.0.3 for the Tmobile leak. However, the Tmobile leak has functioning wifi calling and the quickpanel toggles, which are a big deal so he created the two separate threads. Both the art and Tmobile leaks have their draws and flaws so that's why he's not ignoring one for the other.
Thank You makes sense.

Really the buggy at&t rom seems to run better for me than the tmobile one since his last update.. really not very buggy
Try correction on his name.. respect the man...

I did it in short format, I think he is well enough known, to know who I'm referring to, but to appease you I will change it. Also if I did not respect the man I would not donate to him. I think I have given enough praise for his hard work.

at first was buggy and needed patches to fix this or that , that the t mobile release had built in working. Lol to each his own but at least I learned something today.
I would just let him work like he wants to work.

Talk about bringing a thread back from the dead...
TDJ doesn't develop for this phone anymore. I believe he now owns a Galaxy Nexus.

Why Sprint always gets way fewer roms than ATT and Tmobile?
I had original Epic and Epic Touch on Sprint and we always get fewer roms and last to get updates is there a reason for this?Seams like Tmobile has the most roms and Att is not too far behind it,is it because we are on cdma?If so do Verizon got slow development too,or is it just Sprint?
GSM is easier to develop with, open source. Rest of the world uses GSM. If international version gets development then generally it can be easily ported to a US GSM variant
Btw CDMA is closed source

Yeah i know that,i was asking if Verizon has better rom selection.I know they have great development for Droid phones and Sprint has great development for Evo phones,seems like GS series for Sprint suffers unlike Evo.

They are a bit worse off as they have a locked bootloader. They are the only ones without CM9 nightlies because of that fact.

OG epic is official cm9 supported, and E4GT has good ICS roms (better than evo 3d in the early stages). Just took so long to release kernel source for ICS.

I know i have both Epics,those CM8/9 are nowhere near daily driver and been in development forever,it will take at least another six months for them to be stable.And latest FF18 ota update that Sprint released today for Epic Touch is a joke and buggy,plus we already had buggy FF18 leak for months now,and that is what they call ota?At least they released ics source for EpicTouch-that is something other carriers did not get,probably did it to make up for such late ics ota.
Sometimes i visit Droid and Evo forums and they have so many unique and different roms and rom ports.Xperia ui,Sense,Acer Breeze ui ports-that's just to name a few.So it cant be because we are on cdma,because Droid's and Evo's are too.

Why don't you look in there dev forum and look for yourself? Not trying to be an asshole but seems like an easy solution. And development version or not it's still lacking official CM9 support at this time.
Also consider less people have sprint as there provider, att and Verizon have more customers.
Also the og Evo was given away ag Google io conference that year, so a bunch of people, many devs, got bit for free.

Don't make him switch to Verizon now.
(Though it already seems like he'll do it solely due to "better" development.)

From what I understand, the Evo 3D had horrible development. The OG Evo had amazing development mostly because it was the Google I/O phone, and it had so much new technology that devs really wanted a crack at developing new features.
The 3d had decent development until they started running off developers with childish antics. As mentioned GSM is worldwide and CDMA is not, Verizon is in limbo as far as I can tell with customers and developers with this locked boot loader crap and developer phone price tag.
From the thread made about Verizon and their locked phone, there are a lot of pissed off people who may jump ship or just send the phone back to Verizon. Most don't have an extra $600 + dollars laying around for a new phone and they won't get what they want for their already used s3. Sprint has some decent developers on board including Myn IMHO.
Maybe the lack of sufficient data speeds? :silly:
Sprint phones require special CDMA versions of winZip.
And there's a supply shortage, so we are all still waiting for our pre-orders to arrive.

This.I'd rather have a stellar ROM than lots of decent ROMs. Not that AT&T and T-Mo don't have stellar ROMs, but Phantom's Blazer is amazing. :laugh:
I'm the past Sprint ROMs have been ported to USCC devices like the fascinate, mesmerize, ect does anyone know if this can be done with the SGS III. In the past it had been done by editing eri.xml and apns-config.xml. If this can be done would anyone care to
shed some light on it for me?

On a lower level, the smali files are almost Identical. That being said, ICS tw seems to be a whole other beast than what I'm used to from what I can tell. I just got the phone, so maybe in a few weeks once the stock firmware is released, I'll be more forthright about porting/stock modding.
make sure you ask the dev of the rom you are trying to port if its ok. i did not and got bashed i understand that i screwed up and what i did was wrong i guess. i ported aokp to the sprint sgs3 and asked for help getting the port working right. holly hell i didn't realize that i was going to be chastised for trying to do some good.
it is possible by the way
I am wondering how the policy works with porting an at&t ROM to T-Mobile as I am currently running this ROM which is a combo of AOpk and Pa but its by far the smoothest rom I have flashed and much more options than PA plus the video volume is loud as hell so since I am new to the xda community I want to know what are the rules of porting this bad a$$ ROM so that all T-Mobile users can use this as a dd do I need permission from thebz1 or I could just post it for you guys I have it all ready but don't want to anything against the policy please fill me in guys
BTW the link to the ROM is below

What did the original dev say? That is probably the most important thing.
is it not flashable to our phone? I've used some at&t roms on my t999 with no issues that weren't already expected. (WiFi calling and other T-Mobile things)

thebz1 was working on tmo Pa THREAD a couple month ago until he decided that he would only take care of at&t only that is why OG came in and started getting PA again but after flashing PA and PK i could tell you that PK is much more stable than PA, its much much smoother, the video volume is really loud, you ger rom control and paranoid android settings together in one so much more customization. i guess since it is an open source i feel that i should port it over , i was respectful by asking him so he doesn't own PK anyhow im going to be working on this over the weekend

Obviously both of you haven't tried the AT&T ROM on a T999 because it won't even flash in recovery, much less boot up. I know this because I've tried it in multiple stages of development. He was asking about porting another persons work, and XDA's policy. Yes, most AT&T ROMS work on t-mo too (as long as it doesn't contain AT&T modem), but lets not be redundant & state what most people in this forum already know. Thanks for the port bro. It's running like butter!

I'm sorry, maybe I've missed something...If I have, forgive me,
But, the original Dev did not give you permission to port his work over. Have you considered that he may have a reason for it? Perhaps he plans to support multiple devices with it, like many other devs do with their Roms.
That is just a guess, but if something like that were the case, depending on how popular the dev is, and how P.O.'d he gets, you could be making a lot of enemies on here....
Something like this, if you want it that bad, go ahead and port it. But do it for yourself, do not release it.
If you were planning on releasing it regardless of his answer, then you should never have asked.
Sorry man, just trying to help.....
