Have anyone tried to flash an rom form the Nexus S?? If that is possible.

Yes I know that is a very stupid question, because of the hardware, but can some work be done by see what was done on custom roms from nexus s.

You can port a nexus rom. Only option or to build from source. Porting it will have the same problems as base but does improve speed and performance.

Thanks, If I helped in anyway don't forget to rep me :)

This phone is not a clone of the nexus, it's not a clone of anything.

When I've said "clone" it wasn't suposed to take the term to letter, but only as an expression becaus its similar.

Native English speakers don't generally use "clone" as an expression, except perhaps when jokingly referring to a person. I also, and I'm sure others took you literally when using the word, hence the confusion.

This thread is a waste of time. Surely you would know that Jellybean is already being worked on, as it's one of the most popular threads in the G300 forum.

I wouldn't be surprised if the G300 actually was a "clone" (some people seem to be taking that term more literally than others, but generally in industry terms "clone" refers to when a design and specification is approximately lifted from a competing product to spare R&D and engineering costs, and is pretty common with Chinese products) to be honest. This is the first time I've heard it mentioned as such though.
