Am I the only one that's thirsty for a Google Edition S 3?
Anybody think it would be actually possible to port a 4.2.2 (Google Edition S 4) ROM to our S3?
There both based on 4.2.2, just a thought! I flashed the Google Edition S 4 ROM and it said optimizing xx/88 apps so some things have to be compatible with our ROM!

The whole ROM didn't flash, like no changes.. I did a dirty flash and it said optimizing apps.
Not sure what apps it flashed.
Why though? Its a touchwiz ROM with touch wiz framework with aosp looks and apps, there are like 5 different ROMs for outlr phone like that already...

Because, I want a Google Edition ROM.
It's different from any other ROM, don't find anything that looks the same.

4.3 Google Edition ROM got leaked, it even got ported to the T-Mobile GS 4.
What are the new features. And it won't happen for a port for us. But AOSP 4.3 will be pushed soon then

Why won't it happen? Porting 4.3 or 4.2.2 isn't possible?
I'm not sure about the new features, It's still Jelly Bean that's all I know.
So has anyone got 4.3 running on our device?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
It's not possible because the TW Kernel source is not available. Therefore, the devs cannot create a working kernel to support 4.2.2 TW on our phone (or 4.3 for that matter).
Isn't the "Google Edition" just a complied AOSP build for said device? You could just built it for the d2tmo from the sources.
EDIT: I was thinking of the Nexus series devices, I believe that they are straight AOSP.

Nope, Google Edition still has Touchwiz in it.
Google Edition isn't pure AOSP.

People already have ported 4.2.2 and 4.3 Google Edition which both have Touchwiz in them though.
Even though the Kernel Source isn't available, they've still been ported..

Do research before you actually think it's a bad idea.
It's Touchwiz with Touchwiz removed, only a small piece of TW is in it, rest is AOSP.

If a Rom is built off aosp could it potentially be ported to any phone? I'm specifically talking about the firefly Rom for the Samsung captivate. It's all aosp and no touchwiz. I can provide a link if anyone would consider actually porting it.

Yup, that's it. I see now its actually a touchwiz based Rom.
I knew it was froyo, I just figured if it was portable, maybe a nice dev could add the theming to a newer base? Lol not sure that makes sense. I just know that I've flash atleast (the very least) 3 roms a month. Back when I had my captivate, I stuck to the firefly Rom for months. The look had color and style, but didn't dream "I'm 13" lol. Guess its really the theming I like.

The Samsung features included in a touchwiz rom are proprietory which means they're not open source.
Added to which they have specific framework dependancies (and Kernel) which are not compatible with AOSP so for the vast majority of samsung features and apps that you want, you can't have.

If they "didn't work" the devs would take them down or not put them up in the first place. Are there some bugs here and there? Yes. Read the threads for those.

Of course. I was just wondering if there were any kernel limitations or major bugs that were not ROM specific, or just in CM10.2.
I am not waiting for 4.2.2 tw. The only thing better about tw is the camera app, but it is a phone so it not like we are getting get pics anyway. Running carbon 4.3, very stable and smooth.

I'm curious how it is that we have to many custom 4.2.2 rom for the Hercules, yet the graphics driver is not supported?? Did Cyanogen and other rom developers somehow find a way to port the old Qualcomm drivers to other versions of android? Or are we just using the previous 4.1.2 drivers somehow. Either way the statement that the update is somehow incompatible with our device is purely garbage. Truth be told, it is simply a way to sell more devices, at least it is for those who are not willing to flash custom ROMs. For the rest of us there is 4.3 on a device that began as a gingerbread device, which is awesome. Now bring on the KitKat, because I'm sure our device can rock some 4.4 just as well.

Not a dev so these questions are over my head, but I am curious about the answers as well. And if they Key lime pie (kitkat) rumors are true about it being less spec hungry then it might just be the best running version of Android to grace our phones.

I've always thought MIUI makes Android look just like IOS. TW looks cheesy enough as is without any help.
And what's with the last 10 Samsung devices, all the wallpapers are the same flowers. Come on Sammy, Men buy these phones too.
If you would like to actually keep up with the latest MIUI news. You can bookmark this site http://en.miui.com/thread-4717-1-1.html
The only issue that I can see, is that no MIUI ROMs are using 4.3 at all. The latest is 4.2.2. Even using CM as a base, I think you'd have to use 4.2.2 (CM 10.1). I could be wrong, and porting is way over my head. I wonder if bmarko82 from the GS4 forum could help out. I'd give up the camera and WiFi calling for MIUI on the Note 3.
I'm super excited as well. but seeing that miui up to android 4.2.2 then i guess that's why we have wait because the bite 3 is running 4.3. they're loyal I'm sure we're gonna get it soon enough!

I can understand if your a former iPhone type cuz of the similarity. But there's also themes and icon packs that simulate Miui if your wanting that look until a rom comes out.

First off, that link is to AOSP KK for MIPhones, not MIUI V6. MIUI V6 is not officially out. The Nexus 7 has a beta out. Someone has ported that to the Nexus 5. I have a copy and have been looking make some time to try to port to us. But my personal life is real busy. Just to let you know that I have done some MIUI work on the D2VZW until I got busy with life.

Personally I have never liked MIUI always looked at it as cheezy and when I gave it a try on my evo 3d then note 2 again. I remember why I left. Don't matter how many themes it has the UI is just ugly to me. Every one to their own preference but Google and TW are my favorite indefinitely

That only just appeared and is not functional on our devices yet. As well porting from an older device to newer will take more work than just porting across variants. This won't work without a lot of effort.
Just wait a couple months for 5.0 official TW, we all waited a while for LP CM Based roms. Its ported sure but now since we have official support from CM , there'll be ROMs built for TRLTESPR AOSP soon. For now, KK TW.
