Best Kitchen?
Hello all, i was just wondering which kitchen would be best for me as a beginner to android rom cooking? I have a good grasp of linux thanks to my good friend arran (arranmc182 on xda i think ) so was wondering which was the best
Thanks

best is always to go from stock, as it forces you to implement things and know what you're doing.
copy cyanogen do not make you a "rom cooker"
Hey Guys,
I'd like to get involved with making Android ROMs as well. I have a Droid and would LOVE to make my own Droid ROMs . I am already a student software developer so I don't mind getting into the nitty gritty, in fact, the deeper the better, so I can fully learn how to build and work with Android. I also hope to be able to make Android apps eventually too. I know Java and Perl fairly well and have recently started C and C++.
Any suggestions for where to start would be greatly appreciated, i.e. tutorials, videos, guides, what languages I need to know, what tools I should use (eclipse, etc., with what plugins, etc.). Thanks a bunch, and let me know if you guys have ideas for apps you'd like to see on the Market .

i am trying to compile from aosp. since i have no programming experience at all, it is a slow learning process so far. my ubuntu has redo and git running perfect now. i have eclipse working but have not used it at all yet. androidsdk 2.2 adb is fine but fastboot is a hassle.
so far, two froyo alphas both flashed but buggy. not one decent tutorial that makes the kernel compile/framework/gapps process clear
My AOSP 2.2 for passion/n1 alpha2 is pretty darn solid now. It took mushing together instructions from 5 incomplete tutorials to fill in the blanks.
What a great feeling to have a ROM not kanged. The Repo/Git tool has gotten easy to use after several long sessions using it in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
Anyone on the same OS, I suggest you research and install both Java 1.5 & 1.6 and get use to switching between the two. Also, I have not yet used Eclipse but it isinstalled and it works with SDK.
The Android Open Source site does a decent job of walking you through Repo...Git...and getting the source. After getting that far, I stumbled through setting up a "vendor tree" and looking through all the folders and files to see what it was all about. Much of it was totally over my head. But after attempting several crap builds, the "compile" process is sinking in a bit.

I found this site to be very helpful for building from AOSP...

Im have a few questions I cant seam to find the exact answer that im looking for my questions are.
1. Looking to get a Galaxy S2 after using a iphone and a samsung captaivaite, after using the Capataive I hated Touchwiz, I want to put a diffrent lock screen and UI over it, but will that get rid of my stock samsung apps or do i need TiBackup to load them back on when im done.
2 I found a UI that i like alot its by robbiekhan here on XDA Im wondering whats involved what i found a post he made im just wondering on if i it will hinder some of the stock apps and such. goo.gl/bQp3h
3. was any of this stuff that he did via a custom ROM that he had to to build, or is it all app store adons and a little extra PNG work?
Please let me know. I am computer literate and good with android phones just never modded one.
I know it's possible because manufacturers are able to add custom UI sounds to the OS but I'm yet to locate the files to do so. I want to be able the default sounds that my phone came with like the Charger_connection.ogg and the Power_On.ogg which custom devs seem leave out of their builds for some reason.
Any help on this topic would be very appreciated!
Yes... I know i could just add them to media/audio/UI/ but if the OS is missing the code to load these sounds, the phone will ignore/not know they are there for use.. just to clear things up a little
Bump...
C'mon, someone must know..
You mean like iSounds for iOS? It's a little app that adds UI sounds for every occasion. I want to see something like this in Android, but no one has done something like this yet.
OMG I'M REVIVING A THREAD YAY.

no one know ?
Hey Xda!
Lately, I have come across some pretty cool apps. Such as SF Launcher Alpha, Action Launcher, Sliding Messages, etc. (which I highly recommend you check out, they are pretty cool), but what do they all have in common? They all require ICS or higher Roms. When I email the developers and ask if they could backport the app, they all say the same thing: "Sorry, I use too many ICS Api's to support Gingerbread". Now, I understand that Gingerbread has limitations, but can these apps really not run on gingerbread devices? I remember a year ago that everyone said that the Apollo music player can not run on gingerbread, but look at it now, it is on gingerbread running perfectly fine. So with that being said, can someone explain to me what developers mean when they say they use too many ICS Api's?
Not trying to step on any ones toes either, just want to know.
Thanks in advance!

Anyone?
it means that they don't have any gingerbread phones to test their app on, or simply because they don't want to provide backward support.
Hi. I have acquired an iphone 5 clone, model number MF353ZP/A, although I have no idea who manufactured it. It has an iphone theme to it which i want to remove and just have stock android running on it. I have looked but there seems to be no apps or skins running on it giving it this theme so I'm thinking I will need to reload Android to get rid of the current OS completely. I am also pretty sure it isn't as easy as that so have come on here to basically ask how! Any help appreciated, I just want to see/run a normal android environment on it but don't know how to. Thans, Steve.

Unfortunately Android doesn't work like that. You can't just reinstall the OS and it come out with no skin. Without knowing who made it or what firmware is being used then even trying to make changes like this could end up in a brick. Your best bet for the time being would be to just install a 3rd party home launcher like Nova, Apex, Go, etc.

Something like that app will help narrow down what you have by giving you some details on the chipset, RAM, resolution, etc. With that info, it might be possible to see if there are other options for your phone.
