Hello All.

This is my first posting.

Is there a wp8 rom (look alike) for a samsung galaxy s 4 I9505.

Indeed I am newbie to custom roms but have been playing the last couple of months.
If someone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction to a rom that matches WP8 as close as possible, I would be very grateful

Background:
I have searched the forum and there are some many different roms too choose from.
Tried Cyangomod - that is pretty great but not what I was looking for.
Have since upgraded my phone to KitKat,and I am very happy with it.
Purchased and tried many metro launchers, but again, they are not what I am looking for.

Thanks :D:D

As far as a WP8 ROM, that doesn't exist. You can browse the Play Store though for WP8 launchers... that's the best you'll be able to find.

Thanks for the reply lordcheeto03 - most appreciated.
I currently am running a launcher but launcherss are not what I am looking for, ideally I would like a port of wp8, but I know that hasn't been done.
Just so I understand correctly: There are no custom ROMs that mimic wp8?

A journey

Ok Thanks Skipjacks!

I am going to flash to a new rom. Either paranoid or Pacs. Unless you or anyone else has a recommendation - I am open to anything new :)

Since first joining Xda and asking for a possible WP8 rom for my SGS4, I have been on a mini journey of exploration. and I would like to conclude this thread, in case someone else has the same request as mine. I would like to say - Drop WP8 as quick a you can and climb on bord the Android band wagon. The roms available far surpass anything you could possible want.
I have tried a frew now, and have decided to stick with Phoepnix with a Miui loader and the themes are especially fun and fresh .

Thank you XDA
