That would be awesome, looking forward to it..

Can we use THIS or THIS
If we can, it will be awesome not only to port stock based roms from I9505, but from others like Galaxy s3 series and other ARMV7 Devices:good::good:

As we don't have the source of broadcom.. after broadcom release their source we will be able to port all type rom including cm.

Even then i think AOSP won't be possible for SGY. Hardware Limitations.

I think someone could compile AOKP/AOSP. For HTC Explorer (in my opinion has a hadware with similar limitations) there are four major Roms so far: CM9, CM10, AOKP and Pacman.
CM9 has known bugs and AOKP either, so we will wait to have Broadcom drivers and we'll see! Until then wait ...

I see a aosp or aokp rom on galaxy ace.. but the hardware of ace is almost same as y.
nothing is impossible,
before even users said "SGMini can't handle ICS" but on febuary (correct me if im wrong) 2012 they released a developed Stock ICS for mini,
nothing is impossible,
the question lies on how do we get there and what steps we need to follow,
I have worked on alot of phones like htc explorer,ace,mini and my beloved Y and I know that we can run AOSP easily!
I hope you guys know that cm is BASED ON AOSP!!
Even if we dont have sources to compile, we can port the aosp roms from other phones and make them work easily!

[Q] Porting Roms to I9500?

Hey guys, this is kind of a silly question knowing that the two devices (i9500 and i9505) have different processors and graphic cards but is it even possible to port the i9505 custom roms to the i9500?
Developer Question: How hard would it be if possible to port it and how hard would it be to make the rom compatible for both devices?
Thanks in Advance
Stay Cool:d

i guess its possible
compatibility might not be a big issue cause u r just going to port apps,media frameworks and lib files
But u can only port ofiicial 4.2.2 based roms of i9505 to i9500
Which guide r u referring to while porting?

I would say it's nearly impossible, as i9500 and i9505 had different processors, camera sensor, GPU etc. Talking about processors, the Exynos 5 Octa and Snapdragon 600 is a big difference. Those ROM files like lib.so and framework files had already built in for their hardware.
However, I remebered that someone wants to port HTC One ROM to Galaxy S3 International version (Exynos 4 Quad), it worked. But with lots of lots of bugs including lags. When he gaveup he finally stated that it's hard to port ROMs on different hardwares.
Hope this helps

galaxy y kitkat

will galaxy young uptade to kitkat ? wiil it get a new uptade by samsung? if yes . when will get
please people stop creatiing threads like this - im getting bored it now
There may be ics builds now the drivers have been released
asking for ETA and demands are against xda rules and is just annoying
who knows what will happen in 5yrs time but I expect people will have new phones by then!
Best thing people can do is stop posting things like when we have xyz and I cant wait bla bla bla and just wait for the people who are compiling ics/cm9 to do it
It will be ready when its ready and not before
You will know its ready when it is posted - not before
Do we all get it now
sorry to be harsh but if you read the threads in the forum and the rules you would know the current state of play
Thank you

hey! it is impossible to have kitkat on out Y
Reasons:
1. It requires 512mb of ram. Y have only 300mb.
2. The rom is much bigger than to our Y.
just buy new device if you want kitkat
if u want use cyanocream v4.. :silly:

You can run kitkat in devices less than 512mb. Example: Galaxy Mini, Ace, Gio and Fit.

Port this ROM to S4 would be a GREAT idea !:good::good::good::good:
Insert logic here....
Note 3 has a snapdragon 800 while the S4 has the Snapdragon 600.
a post from @Albe95 where he explains everything.
Albe95 said:
Yep I already saw that. How they port that? Simply thanks to Exynos they port full ROM of Note 3 exynos on their S4 exynos. It would be bad for Aosp ROM but Exynos is better for porting (look at Note 2 and S3: they port KitKat on S3 and 4.4.4 of s3 neo on Note 2 because Exynos of these 2 phone are very similar)
Now is that possible for our S4 Snapdragon? No. Why? There is too much difference between Snap600 and Snap800. It's possible to port on Snap800 variant of S4? With most of probably (99%) yes. In fact S5 ROM can completely ported to Note 3 for example (801 vs 800)

Yes the s6 one is the only one working i know but i really want to have cyanogenmod for my a5 before any other mod,and the s6 one is not that different of the lollipop update 5.02 with a lot of bugs as its the older release of lollipop.

Ohh thats sad :/. but still ill just be patient for a developer to start to build for my specific device. The A5 can really be a nice successor. I really wish it brings same positive aspect same as the S series. Cause so jealous of samsung series have more developer than us. Anyway Good luck guys.
agreed, its a great phone with great promise, but its problem with this chinesse models and same phone with 4 diff models. You aactually need more develpoers than. I hope it will get better soon, its kinda still new phone, but compared to s series, its better to buy s5 and have tons of roms, if you are in to that stuff.I had same problem with htc desire 820, chinesse phone with no develpors, tons of models and 0 roms
