settings especially uses a ton of providerinput. your best bet would be to take a nightly that is very very close to our release dates. like 1.4 came out last monday i think, that's when i'd fetch my nightly from. you can also compile settings which is probably not such a bad idea - other porters though have somehow managed to make do without. i myself can only guess as i really have never ported anything myself. also make sure to study logcats, its the perfect tool to track down issues. i think a page before we already solved a settings blowup via logcat.

Yeah I read that. I noticed that there was not a ro.pa.version anywhere in the build prop. This could be over my head. Lol

I've finnaly got it working on i9100g, was easier as I thought thanks to this thread.
I think I'm gonna make a thread for it in i9100g android development saying that everything hasn't been tested so that there could be some bugs.

Can you or someone help out with compiling settings, please? When I try to compile using existing CM9 directories, I get stuck on the paranoid settings.

Code:
packages/apps/Settings/src/com/android/settings/paranoid/RomUtils.java:22: cannot find symbol
symbol  : class ExtendedPropertiesUtils
location: package android.util
import android.util.ExtendedPropertiesUtils;

Same was happening with ParanoidBackup, I had taht import for testing purposes and I had to remove it. For now you will not be able to build it sadly :/

This is my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726759 (a lot copied from D4rKn3sSyS' one) correct my mistakes if I'm wrong in something. I wrote that D4rKn3sSyS made the rom for the galaxy s2 because he did the thread, but I'm not sure if it's true?
I own the device but the work is from the Project. I just mantain it :)

Use github, that said, 5 or 6 packages aren't available yet, so it doesn't sync completely (check your .repo folder, most of it should be there, but not enough for a complete sync)

My port for i9100g is fully working, but I can't find the paranoid wallpapers, what file is it and where do I need to put it?

Another question : will my port be added to the official website?

Quoted from molesarecoming thread,
Also, I'm loving those wallpapers. Mind sharing them? please?
thats androidify. it comes with a really cool livewallpaper and these droids are actually moving. you can tap then and they'll wink or jiggle. i made myself a bunch of bearded ones, not because i dig beards so much mind you, but because it looks cool when the dock is blacked out. ^^

i plan making it the stock wallpaper for this rom but i cant for the world find out how android knows which wallpaper is set and which not. i made a grep for "phasebeam," which is the standard livewallpaper, and it comes up nowhere except in the build project itself. huge fonts aswell and a couple of other settings, i'd rreeeaaallly like to set them by standard but where the heck is all that stuff stored. :confused:

Decompiling framework-res.apk.

I'm having an impossible time decompiling framework-res.apk. Getting errors with all of the res/"x-large" directories, which prevents me from recompiling. I tried grabbing those directories from CM source, but it gave "password_kbd_qwerty.xml:41: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'keyIcon' with value '@drawable/sym_keyboard_delete_holo')" for all of the "x-large" stuff. This seems to be the last thing stopping me from porting, completely.

not sure exactly what you are trying to do there. why do you need to decompile framework-res?

The specific options from CM9 as vibration intensity and backlight toggle don't work, in which file do I have to search to fix it?
i can only support pa. everything beyond that, no idea. theres hardware overlays involved that we do not have on nexus. read xylographs text again, make sure you have a fitting base, thats the key.

For those who have the same problem, I fixed it by taking the galaxys2setting.apk from cm9 and not from paranoid as the paranoid one is made for i9100 and not i9100g
