So i saw that in other devices fourms they ported the Sense 4.0 multitasking screen. But it's not working for all devices or builds.
So a dev/ or user has to port the code to our builds . I myself don't have the time to port it but i am looking forward to seeing this on out beloved device.

It's quite easy I have this running now on my defy ...... U need to source code to apply no porting necessary
I will help you make one for yourself after my exams are done
There's already a thread that has a flashable zip that works for older nightlys.
it may look neat but it hardly promotes multitasking that the inbuilt ics carousel provides...you can barely see the next two open apps using the sense "multitasker"

Thanks. I have exams as well ) i will try to port it. If i stumble i will let you know. Maybe i will like it.
Good luck on your exams.

can anyone help me to learn a bit more than android!
I heared about compile form source and biuld form source...And I can't understand what diferences between compile from source and port! can U explain easily?
for example should I want to bring superOxygen Rom in my x10 , should I port it with cm as base or compile form source?!
thx
for short:
porting means you are making rom to your device from another device, you will be just moving libs, editing ramdisk, etc.
compiling from source means you make a complete rom from scratch including programming own drivers, libs in some situations.
If source is avaiable fot superOxygen then you can try compiling it yourself, but editing, or adding your drivers is necessary, and anyway its harder than porting, but gives better result in fact because you can program everything to make it work and you aren't dependant on binary files like in porting.
When porting, hardware should be close to one you have in your X10, because most things will not work when processor differs, wifi modules, gsm etc. You take files from any X10 rom and replace ones that are with same name in another rom (oxygen here).
Thanks very much man!
I took your advices...it was good advices but what is your idea about this:
If I port Superoxygen from Nexus1 for my x10 and (use stable AOSP as base) , then can I say I make a superOxygen Rom?
compiling from source is how much difficult?! I'm 17...! , I have a link that teach compile from source... Is it need some Knowledges that is impossible for me?!
heh, im 17 too and I don't have much knowledge, but looking on pcfighter(a gt540 developer) im impressed, hes 17 too and does a great job, so it depends on time spent and interests
when you port oxygen, you can just say that you ported and not made it. credits go to the maker and you for just making it work on x10
I'm looking now how to compile for gt540 but can't find any idea how to make it strict for gt540 compiling from source tutorials are mostly for nexus s and nexus 4g because most of are just remade of what you can find on official android developer page and its easier. For unsupported device its even harder, you have to work with what you already have and add it first to sources then ... more things to do. I'm beginner with that too, just pulled sources yesterday and looking how to make it work :] so don't expect so much help in this way :]. Just telling you overall how this looks
For compiling you need to know Java and C programing language.

@mesaj! do you know c and gava programing languge?! ofcourse I worked c++ a little...
Thanks now I also know what the difference is.
In easy terminology. Compiling a ROM is building a ROM from the source code so it means you are building a ROM from the ground up. Porting a ROM to your phones means to take a ROM built for another phone and to get it working on yours. That's the simplest way to think of it. I have in my signature a guide for compiling a ROM. Oh and I'm newly 18

The Rom surely look preety good.
I hope someone would port it
Yes i hop this too this is a very great rom and the CPU is supported
Hello. I'm not a true dev, but I like a lot WALKMAN app and I'd like to take a look to Xperia customization, too. I've done a basical port. Just boots and shows initial setup. Every process FCs. If anyone wants to work on this, I can upload the zip. Actually I'm on holiday and I've done this on my friend's PC. I'll take a better look inside this port when I'll be back home, but I DON'T PROMISE ANYTHING. As said in the beginning of the post, I'm not a true dev, so I'm not sure I can do this.
But maybe there's someone sets ran for porting
Yes for sure you can port that from P500 Due to almost same device (Same based armv6) just need some trick over the porting.
Framework & Apps most important overall for the porting process.Also for adb knowledge

Are there any guides that show the user how to create a rom from scratch? I've seen multiple guides on creating a rom but they do so using the kitchen. I would prefer something that shows how to make a rom without a crutch.
please help

I would say the best way to make a ROM from scratch is to compile it from source. If your interested in learning how to compile a ROM from source I would recommend taking a look at this guide to building Jelly Bean from source, as well as Google's offcial documentation on building Android from source. Additionally this guide on Zip Based ROM tweaking is a good guide to take a look at. Let me know if you still have any questions .

Normally all device forums have tutorials on how to compile ROM from source(if someone has already compiled it).
If no development has yet started for your phone then you you need to create the device tree which is tough. Otherwise just google . There are lots of tutorials lying on xda.

I'm wanting an AOSP ROM on my s5 g901f but there is no support at all. Could someone point me in the right direction? I'd like to have a go and have looked up porting but I don't think that is the way to go. If somebody could give me the steps what I need to do for this modal I will research.
Could I use the cm for note 4 as it has similar specs, ie
805, 420 etc. Or s5 g900 as a base ROM? Or would I need to build from scratch?
There is only one custom ROM for g901f and that's touchwiz so somebody please help before I go insane. Touchwiz really is that bad
Up for this. Really interested especially for us who has not so good programming skills

Let's see if I can point you in the right direction! Because of the differences in specs between your S5 Plus and the regular S5 you can't use that to port ROM's. For the Note 4 idea, since you only have a Touchwiz ROM as your base (The one from your S5 Plus) it won't work properly for the port ROM (CM12 Note 4). I would recommend looking at compiling CM12 for your device, which I would recommend taking a look at this guide here. Let me know if you have any questions be happy to help you out.
Note: This is my first time trying to port or build a ROM for my phone, so I apologize if this is a stupid question.
I want to try to port the preview from the Nexus 4 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/lpv-79-mako-port-beta-t2807446) and I am trying to achieve this by using defcondev's tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2442593).
The third step of the process is to swap out the N4 boot.img with an OG boot.img. Would I be able to use a KitKat boot.img or would it have to be specifically designed for the L preview? If it has to be specifically built for L how would I be able to obtain it?
I'm just an everyday Joe with absolutely no programming knowledge trying to port L to my phone.
BTW I haven't seen anything about L for this phone, is no one else as excited for L as I am?
Thanks in advance!

I may be wrong dut heard that since 4.4+ appears it's much harder to port roms from nexus 4 without major changes, almost impossible...

Well I guess the hard working devs will port it over soon enough, KitKat until then.
At least porting kitkat will be a great progress, and then may be possible L porting
There are Lott's of threads for porting for Rom's to any device..
But most of describes to use same android versions for base and port...
But i want try porting CM12 for Galaxy Core...
I am not a developer but still want to use Cm12 on my device .. So instead of asking some one i would love to port it by myself:thumbup:

That is hard to do without a background in building from source and knowing some coding and kernel stuff. You don't have lollipop yet on that device so it will be even harded. You can't just copy some files. You need a device tree and modify the kernel and then build cm12 from source.
Thanks for taking time .. But i would if i can port CM11 at least

Well I don't know about your device (it's basically the same for all Qcom device, I don't know about MTK). Porting by copying files is less reliable then building from source (well it's way easier). It's very very hard to solve bugs when copying files and if the base has bugs the port might be even more buggy.
