Samsung Galaxy W I8150 = Samsung Exhibit II 4G SGH-T679?

A friend of mine just got a Samsung Exhibit II 4G and I'm looking around trying to see what can be done to improve it. My question, of course, is: are the roms and other data from the I8150 applicable to the Exhibit, as the Exhibit is a T-Mobile version of it?

for sure, original firmware will not work across the two phones. got incidents of people downloading wrong firmwares.

The two phones are similar in look but not the same.
In: CPU and chipset, camera, storage and more...

compatible?

Hello, I live in Brazil, bought on a visit to the U.S., Exhibhit a Samsung T-769 T-Mobile. How do I know the hardware is compatible to the W, I installed this ROM that worked perfectly. Only two things does not work. Face recognition gives error trigger and the Kies, gives the message that this device does not support updates. Anyone know to solve?
Thank you.

That mean you install the rom for W in your SGH?

Yes, i install the rom and work very well.

So its a good news for Exhibit users. Instead of porting they can directly use the W Roms.

Ehhh!!!! ali my friend....
I don't think so....
The ROM detk is talking about is an Exhibit II ROM.....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22166097
He cross-posted into our forum and the ROM thread......
so, to be clear, he flashed an Exhibit ROM onto his Exhibit phone...
just in case anyone does anything silly like flashing that ROM to our Wonder GT-i8150....
dekd....you really should clarify this!!!

I think galaxy s2 ics rom. Some people from galaxy s section has ported it to their device
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda app-developers app

Moved to General. Please keep all questions in General :good:

I think the porting will be kinda difficult since we are having a different CPU, RAM&GPU from SG2, we may need to find a lot of drivers for it, but I think some of them are not available that's why Arco needs to write them from scratch

But why dont you just use a custom ICS rom instead?

Maybe he thought that porting is easier and faster than writing from scratch

The firmware of the galaxy w has a lot of bugs while GSII not.
The galaxy sII is also better optimized and has ics.
I thought it was the kernel containing drivers for the hardware.
The galaxy s has a very similar hardware to the galaxy w.
Please, there is anyone that could help me?

Absolutely not, only S Advance and SII in the S lines will get an update to ICS, BTW SGS may be having quite a fast progress because that phone came out much earlier than SGW so they got more developers and maybe supports.

Seriously, even if somebody is going to do it, the stable CM9 may still be released earlier than this lol

I guess what he means in his "port" is porting the looks, ui, sounds, etc., of Samsung Galaxy SII into Galaxy Wonder.

[REQ] Default Touchwiz 4 (GB Version) that comes with i927

I don't know if I should ask here, I'm from Samsung Epic 4G, another QWERTY Android around here. I've been searching for a way to make this baby cosmetically a GB+Touchwiz4 device but stuck with the launcher. All Touchwiz 4 mods that claim to have landscape mode don't go landscape for me
So that's why I got an idea and come over to ask for help: is there anyone who has the default Touchwiz 4 launcher (should be in /system/app/, odexed should be okay) that comes with GINGERBREAD, and is kind enough to upload one? Also the ICS version is welcome too though not necessary...
Thanks in advance

Um... Can't install (but it should, because my device is on TW framework and should be compatible with any stock TW launcher), and size looks far from expectation (versions I have all are larger than 1.4MB)... Is this odexed or deodexed? If it's the former... I'll go download an deodexed OsiMood myself 'cuz I can't deodex a bare apk
UPDATE: Oops, I forgot to clear the defaults... It installs, but when trying to go home, it FCs. I reckon it's still an odexed one that lacked components...

Umm, at least I've tried several devices' TW launcher (both 3 and 4) and they work okay. The device is on stock TW so I assume it supports Glide's variant of the launcher also.
Too bad, after seeking around your forum, I can only find one legit TW4 GB ROM (OsiMood) Any other of this kind around here?

If you can pull apart the pure stock tar it has the apk. Look for the thread rooting the captivate glide

Thank you too I hope I will have testers for this rom, its very difficult to this because this rom is 4.4.4 and we have the 4.4.2 I will give my best and hope its going to work for us. Right now at the moment I am porting it to our s3 neo wich is going to take some time, because I am in exam period till the 13.07 after that date I will really work on it!

You are welcome. Don't mention it. Its you who deserve to be thanked because you are going to create something for us.
I know it is not an easy job. Take your time and bring the magic. We are waiting and we will be looking for good news from you.

Wow, thank you for your work . I have only a question: won't be more easy to port from other devices? When I was trying to port ditto note 4 ROM I found out that I wasn't able to do that because from gsmarena the only differenze seem the RAM but if you do some researchs you find out that the soc is completly different and while the galaxy s3 has an exynos processor, the galaxy s3 neo has got a Qualcomm snapdragon 400 processor. The only similar thing is the screen. I think that It would be more easy to port rom from galaxy s5 mini or galaxy grand 2 that has the same soc, the msm8226. Anyhow this doesn't mean that ypu won't be able to port this rom. I hope you successfully port the rom; good look :good:

It has to be 4.4.2 version and its very easy to port it because you have just to replace boot.img and thats it but we have till now on every 4.4.2 a grand 2 ported rom

No no dude. Its just alright. You did your best but failed. I am not angry etc. You can try to port something else. Good luck
