Talking [Q] Port Android 2.2 to 2.3 Devices

I really think about it a lot, but i cant find an answer.

Is it possible to Port an Android 2.2 ROM to a Device that was delivered with Android 2.3 Gingerbread?


Please donīt ask why anybody would do that, because i have no idea

Possible? Sure. But if you cannot see a reason for doing so, why even suggest it? And seeing as actually porting a ROM is a LOT more effort than posting on a forum, no one will do such a thing, as it is completely pointless. If the device can run 2.3, run 2.3.

If the device was shipped with 2.3, it probably has sufficient resources to run it. On older phones I can see why you'd install an older version.

But sure, everything is possible (ICS on dream).
