Google Play Edition rom? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I searched online and found this rom meant for Sprint GS4 and was wondering if it could ported. I am not familiar with porting or if its even possible even though its coming from a CDMA phone.
This is the link from the webpage.
And this is the link for the rom.
Thanks in advance.

It's being worked on is all I will say.
But just an fyi, GPE for the HTC One and S4 boils down to more or less an AOSP themed stock rom

If this becomes aosp or anything like that it will look nothing the same just like cyanogenmod....they all look alike they may just run different

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.

Rom porting

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.

Anything like ViperRom for the Galaxy Nexus?

There is a ROM for most popular HTC phones called "ViperRom". It is probably the most insane ROM I've ever seen, simply because of the sheer amount of tweaks.
The greatest feature I have seen on it is live, on the go framework tweaking. Load some .pngs into your phone, and use the built in editor to select them and use them as images in your status bar, such as the battery, signal, wifi, or ring mode images. There is no installable theme or .mtz file needed to theme the images; just select them from the tweaks menu.
Is there any ROM that has this ability or can be built to add this ability for the GSM Galaxy Nexus? Because that would be awesome.
nope. just a whole bunch of aosp ROMs that are almost exactly alike

Only Roms that give you a new UI experience is:
Paranoid Android

That is it.

I think JBSourcery has some unique stuff also no? I haven't tried it though.
Ya jbsourcery will let you do a lot of theming on the phone. I'd check it out if I were you

Recently I've been thinking of starting a ROM but it seems that life is not letting me I would like to create something different from the rest.
I'm pretty jealous if that's what viperrom shouldve been like! Coming from an evo3d it was just another stock ROM with no bells and whistles

I can't believe the amount of people in here crying about the AOSP roms.
You bought a galaxy NEXUS. Not "sense-box-2230349039" or "blur-spaz-X08" or whatever the hell else you're looking for.
If you got a NEXUS device hoping that you'd be surprised by sense/b2g/windows/Android2.2/MacOS/whatever-else to be available...and working without show-stopping bugs...You have no idea what a NEXUS device is.
Nexus:
Get's updates straight from google (+yakju +takju -toro -toroplus...there's often a middle man) or in simpleton terms...
ANY DEVELOPERS WHO BOUGHT A NEXUS ARE FANS OF ANDROID AND WANT TO BUILD ANDROID. NOT SOME AFTERTHOUGHT SKIN WITH CLOSED/SEMI-CLOSED/"SOON-TO-BE-AVAILABLE" SOURCE.
If you came in to the game just to cry about the lackluster roms you shouldn't own the phone.

You will likely never get a Sense ROM on the Nexus and if you do it will be a port from another device. If you enjoy sense, you should stick with HTC devices. I came from a Sensation that had 1.9 million sense ROMS with few AOSP offerings.
The Nexus is the exact opposite. It's going to give you a 'vanilla' Android experience without the skins that you'll see from other manufacturers.
For me, I love the stability of the 'stock' builds and I can get enough customization through APEX launcher and some creativity.
Here is a great example of how much you can customize this device (and mind you, Black Bear is doing all of this without root): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804627

I guess I just had the wrong idea about the nexus. I kind of thought it was the phone that would have the most development, be it ROMs being ported, built, or whatever. Currently my prepaid Virgin Mobile Optimus V has a wider selection of "different" ROMs than the Nexus does. I guess I was wrong. I was by no means trying to start a fight, however, so I sincerely apologize if anything I said offended you in any way.

Yeah I have seen the forums for sense phones. It's like the Nexus forums, but replace the "AOSP" label before all the ROMs with "Sense". Like I said above, I kind of just thought the nexus was the phone that had the widest variety of development. I'd love to be able to try out sense or touchwiz or motoblur on my phone, even if I am a fan of stock android. I guess this us not the phone for that.
Oh, and I know a lot about theming Check out my deviantART in my signature and you'll see

I'd think the official would be a lot smoother cm can be a bit laggy and unrealiable
OK nm the phone is officially out!
I am currently running AOKP on my M919 but would definitely like to compare it to the 'Official' google experience rom.
id rather have the real google edition instead of CM and other community built roms because they always glitch and lag at some point, ive been running cm since cm7 ive tried all and they were never perfect i want to try a real google experience :good:
Everyone does, matter of getting someone to port it ^.^

its got to be possible, i did some research and actually our phone is the closest to the model phone that the GE s4 uses. my thoughts are that we might actually get a port first. i have a feeling the rom itself will boot on our phones. we just need to flash a radio. the kernal should work... the tmobile phone is actually the best of all the usa variants to have and usually tmobile variants hold the most value when selling because they are closest to international versions and have the most bands. i think we might be in luck here.
Yes.. Geeks

[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........
