Considering they are for the Galaxy Nexus series of phone, if anyone had flashed this on a GS4 they would now have a bricked device most likely.

Yeah but its the same phone. Im sure it's possible and maybe more possible than any.

The Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S4 are absolutely NOT the same phone.
If you try to flash this on your Galaxy S4 you WILL destroy it.
There are people who have been working on am Ubuntu ROM for the S4. It's not ready yet. Don't flash the one you linked in the mean time.

just because both have galaxy in it doesn't make them the same phone.

I tried it. I am now running The Galaxus S4 Morph. Just kidding, this will brick your phone and render it unusable. DO NOT DO IT.

Obvious bad thread is obvious
OP, I recommend you do a LOT more research and reading before you brick someone's phone

developers and anyone listening. Do you think it will be possible to port the picture in picture function in the new SGSIII to the nexus?

Anything is possibly but more than likely won't happen. Buy a GS3.

I believe the same guy who pulled Flipboard apk said he'd pull s-voice and others off when he can. Then we'll see if it works. It probably won't though, but you never can tell.

I am really not understanding the logic behind this statement. There are already dev's committed to putting the GS3 stock ROM on the Gnex.

All of the ROMs are the best for somebody. You just have to find out which one is best for you. It's a DIY project by nature.

No ones really sure if there is but he can upgrade his HTC evo for a Gnex for like 100$ so I told him go for it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Because I can get the old one for 99 bucks and the new nexus is sure to be over 500 dollars and being as I am a single dad in limited income I can deal w the old one but thanks I didn't know a new one was even comming out lol

This is true
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
well, yeah, that's what I feel like writing, because it's such a pointless question. you want to know what people use more? check number of pages of every rom thread and you'll know what most people are using. same with kernels. then read those threads, get the device, and enjoy flashing from day 1 you get the device, already knowing before hand what is it that you can expect (approximately, since, most of all, every device is different) from X release of X rom or kernel.
not to mention that must be there like lot's of threads on this theme, and that's it's a rather subjective/personal one.

Just bought this phone, should I root?

Hi guys, so I can pretty much do anything, I've been rooting for a long time. So should I root now? If so, which Rom would be best? Thanks in advance

Best way to find out what's the best rom is to try them out people can say one thing about a rom and you can think something else,
Root and rom away, and welcome

This.
Save yourself from any future headaches and head on over to Peoplearmy and GeeK's threads and back up your IMEI with both methods just in case.
I ran with stock rooted for a good week after getting my GS3 just to make sure there weren't any defects (since stock is the most stable).
Pardon my ignorance, I know what imei is, but if things go wrong, how will imei be involved?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
Some people where having issues and there imei was lost, there's a tool to back it up in development section just back it up you shouldn't have issues I haven't seen people inquiring about lost imeis lately,

For some odd reason, people have been reporting that their IMEI information on the phone was wiped while flashing ROMs through recovery. That information isn't supposed to be touched, but nobody has really found out the reason why that data gets wiped during the flashing process for some users.
When this happens, the phone loses its ability to connect to your mobile network (because it has no IMEI information to present to the network), so it's essentially an iPod. Last week I randomly lost my IMEI from restoring a nandroid backup from CWM (luckily I backed up my IMEI information and was able to restore it within minutes), but I've heard people saying that it happens on TWRP as well.
I'm not saying that it will happen to you whenever you flash a new ROM, but when it comes to these things it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Also, welcome to the SGS3 forums . Leaving the childish drama behind in the Amaze forum alone was worth the upgrade for me.

Trial and error always the best course with roms. I would root mine was rooted a few hours after I pulled it out the box.
Very easy to do and with our development section well worth it.

System apps safe to remove?

So I did a quick search on tapatalk and saw nothing. With that said, anyone have a good list of apps safe to remove? The slimmer the better lol.
