LG Optimus 2x port request - Samsung Captivate Glide

I know port software from different devices is hard, but would it be possible to port the ics rom of the optimus 2X to our phones? Thanks.

Anything is possible, but the real question is why port ICS from another device?
Captivate Glide got official support from ICS and I thought our ICS roms were pretty much as good as ICS gets.

I mostly thought that the lg ui would look amazing on the phone. And I also have no experience with porting and real modding. If someone were to help me learn to port, I would be greatly appreciative.

Hmm, is it just a launcher? or is there more to it than that?
If just a launcher you can possibly just install the apk for it... I don't know much about the LG or really all that is involved with the "UI"

No I'm talking about the entire ui. With all the lg ICS features, the white ui, the entire software. I saw the optimus 2x and thought it would work will for porting because of the similar specs.

Kinda. I want to port the lg custom ui completely.

I have forgotten a lot but if I recall it correctly, there is a mod for AOSP ROM to get the touchwiz.
Better ask the other more about this.
out of interest why would you want touchwiz?
almost everyone with a Galaxy S I know doesn't want it either

It is true. I have played for a couple of minutes with the Galaxy S2 and beside the speed due to better hardware, I didn't impressed at all.
I own a Desire and a SGS2 and I have to admitt that TouchWiz4 impresses me a lot more than Sense.

from what ive seen, touchwizz is more functional and more customizable than sense which only 'looks nice' but i dont think it does look that nice
guess it is simply an individual matter
i never tried touchwiz, from what ive seen on videos it doesnt really make me want a SGS2.
one desire developer, baadnewz, recently bought SGS2 but he sold it very soon after and bought HTC Sensation reason: "cant live without sense"
so like i said, everyone likes what he/she likes
It's not that I don't like sense I just wanna try something different. I sometimes get tired of the look of sense and wanna try Touchwiz out. Is it just me or is sense just getting boring their are just so many devices with it on them its no longer fresh.
Sent from my PB99400 using XDA App
If you are bored of Sense and wanna try something new, why don't you try MIUI or AOSP?
Note:
It is also true that I tend to prefer Sense over MIUI, Moto-Blur or Touchwiz.
Isn't Blur dead now?
didn't Moto even rename it?
I will also be trying MIUI after my device is able to be rooted.

[Q] MIUI Love

What's the chance that one of our great devs out there giveing us some miui love?miui has just released a 1.7.8 rom for a lot of phones but not ours.SO PLZ SHOW US SOME MIUI LOVE
I agree, I have been looking everywhere to no avail. ADW offers different themes, but I didn't really like them.
I'm working on a MIUI-ish rom now. No real deving, all visual changes but hey it's something
Ugh, go buy and iphone...

I love you constructive post
I would also like MIUI, I heard so much hype for it. Hopefully someone can port over a MDPI version of MIUI (I heard Galaxy 3 has MIUI and I think that phone is MDPI)
The problem isn't the resolution. The images could be resized fairly easy. The problem is that the frameworks are compiled for ARMv7 and will not work on older ARMv6 processors such as the one in your alls device. Sorry, the closest you all could get without purchasing a newer device is using some CM7/Launcher themes to try to mimic the look.

This.
Here's a CM7 MIUI theme by the same guy that did the Meizu theme.
Have to do the transparency patch for the status bar if you want it to look like that. (Which I would do regardless because it looks awesome.)

The Samsung Galaxy 3 has a MIUI port and it only has an ARM v6 processor. Sure, it's LDPI, but doesn't the fact that it's possible in the first place mean that it's also possible for the Espresso? Wouldn't it just take a dedicated porter who had the phone? I can understand that most people wouldn't be satisfied with just Launcher Pro or ADW with a MIUI theme.

There are already two ports of CM9 (with inherited problems), I might work on JB but not now.
How about porting some of the features ?

I think MIUI and AOKP ports should remain original, mixing things will neither be JB or MIUI,AOKP.

yeah sure, someone can try to mixup things from different roms and give it a new name.
Here we go again. People trying to port new Android versions from completely incompatible phones, hardware wise. Or worse yet, from an emulator image.
It will run like **** no matter what, so I'd rather wait for sources, thank you very much.

On Wonder will not ported Jilly Bean?
Well cm9 is being ported right now. Right now it works pretty well so why won't cm10 work? The only thing i think won't work is the camera and some other bugs

He means that better port from compiled from sources, not from another phone or emulator image.

I can see that mostly phones which have in-built ICS can get JB. Are you sure it is possible for our Wonder?

Porting touchwiz android 4.2.1 to I747 and other carrier variants.

Hey everyone. I am just getting into development and am looking for some experience in the field. I know it is not easy, but, if someone is not already working on this, would anyone like to join me in an attempt to port a touchwiz android 4.2.1 ROM from the international GS3 to all carrier variant GS3s? If so, respond here, or PM me. I am really interested in getting the ball rolling on this as the new touchwiz features intrigue me, but as a high school student I have no money for a galaxy s4.
Thanks for your interest.

I don't even think its possible to port from international..
I mean in general is it, but its completely rewriting everything from scratch since US and International is completely different hardware... That's why no one has done it.
Anyone feel free to correct me but OP, if you want to really accomplish this, you have a LONG way to work. Its easier to cook your own TW ROM
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
I was just wondering, because it has all of the new touchwiz functionality from the galaxy s4 (minus some of the hardware dependent stuff) so it just seemed like a cool idea. Maybe I can just get the cam, gallery, and some other stuff to work with our current touchwiz/android version.

That's if they even release TW source code... Which they probably wont since its closed sourse... The only hope is waiting for the US variant, but even with the US variant, its still closed. This is something extreme lol most elite devs won't even mess with TW since no code makes it extremely difficult... But we'll have to wait and see.

Yeah, It is rather annoying. But is TW being closed source a new thing? Because if I remember correctly, some, if not all, of the Galaxy S3 TW versions were available open source.

The only source Samsung releases consist of kernel source code and various stock stuff. None of the stuff they release is for TW...
Touchwiz is and always has been closed source. If code was released for TW those featured would of already been implemented to AOSP based roms.

[ROM Request Thread] Want something create/ported? Devs wanna try something new?

Just started this to see what other users might be interested in, plus it will hopefully fuel the interest of our excellent developers to spice up our phone some more. I will kick it off.
I personally love AOSP and especially AOKPA (AOKP with Paranoid Android features) ROMs and would really love to see one here. If that is too boring, then perhaps someone can make something fresh and unique? Maybe a hybrid ROM based on a Stock ROM with AOKP Rom Control or CM Interface built in with as many AOSP apk files that you can get working. It has only been done to my knowledge on Samsung SGS2 by jazzk and can be found here. I used to use this ROM and it was incredible.
Battery life of the stock ROM plus AOKP love........

More stock based custom roms.
Like the G2V5 Rom.....

Custom CM and Stock kernels. Overclock/underclock, zram... the works. This is something that i miss a great deal from my Galaxy S3 days...
+1 for more custom stock based roms... Stock rooted is the best battery and stability I've gotten. Would love more options for that combo.

paranoid android 4 running on kit kat? some kernel optimization would be nice too..perhaps get our phone to run with same specs as the s4?
custom stock also. keep pressing the button key for quick memo
+1 for custom stock based roms. Still can't believe we are stuck on 4.1.2 LG needs to pick it up

I'm pretty sure they've closed up shop. There's a First Else launcher called Splay in the Play Store.

Theme-able stock with option to have dark UI. I've tried a few kitkat roms and nothing satisfies me more than the stock rom. :good:
