WRONG WRONG WRONG .
jje

seriously I always wonder about the right answer even I read the original post of the difference, I am not very good in english maybe thats why I didn't fully undertand the main difference, but I guess the below:
Original android: after sometime the ROM is being stable so it goes to that forum
Android: still under development and not proved to be usable as stable version
NOTE: I am not sure at all, and please if any one knows the right answer to confirm it ... we are not all good english speakers

In all honesty, why does it matter ? It's not important. However...Original Android development is exactly that, a forum for stuff that is original. Whereas Android development has pretty much 'everything else' development-wise & stuff that is often based on/contains parts of someone else's work.
I still don't get why knowing this is so important to you ? Besides, if you'd read & followed the link you were given (which lead to other links and an eventual answer), you would have got the answer I just gave you.

I must be stupid but...
If we look at Original ROM index we've got Sammy, AOKP & AOSP based ROMs for both ICS & GB.
If we then take a look at Android ROM index we have Sammy, AOKP, AOSP & MIUI ROMs, also for ICS & GB.. and a new one for JB
Plus custom kernels in both sections aswell.
If by original we're talking about pure original as in not a modified/port of an already existing ROM then shouldn't it only be official Cyanogen, Kang, MIUI ROMS and maybe official Sammy releases in Original section?

Always Original Android best google experience

Could we pleace define what a ROM is...

Hi there.
Could the mods pleace establish what defines a ROM or development ?
At the moment we see a lot of claimed "new" roms, when in fact they are only stripped s/e roms, loaded with a bunch of other apk's instead...
Nothing special at all, and no development...
These self claimed "developed ROMS" just clouds up the dev. section with nothing new at all...
In fact only the thread from J & Z, should be there as they actually develop something...
All the other "roms" should eigther be in a "modded Rom" section, or in the theme and app section, as they dont offer anything other than a "theme"...
Most of them is fine looking themes for shure !, but nothing more...
Sent from my Commodore VIC20...
With the bootloader locked up still, only partial custom roms are being released because we cannot flash the custom kernel yet. (You can crank up the screen to 16M i.e. with the kernel.) - So these so called custom roms are only partial custom. We still need to wait till the bootloader get cracked. (Witch i think is still a long road ahead for us)
Still J and Z, are able to actually do some development...;-)
The other are not with any development...
Perhaps the people making the theme-roms then should put a [Modded stock] sign in the header of the threads of those "roms" so every one know for shure, what is what...

not a bad idea actually. My thoughts and interpretations.....
[ROM] denotes a flashable ROM - stock or custom
This heading is for any type of rom, as it differentiates it from threads on [HACKS], [MODS] or other.....so therefore in our SE context.....
[CUSTOM ROM] denotes a custom ROM
This heading is not for use with a custom ROM. If the ROM is based on the SE ROM, no matter how customised it is....it is still a SE ROM at heart. If the ROM is based on something else, or brewed completely, use this heading
[SE ROM] denotes a ROM that is based on the SE 2.1 ROM
This heading is to be used for ROMS that are based on the SE 2.1 Official ROM. If you started with this as a base, then use this heading.
The formatting could also be as follows.....
[ROM - CUSTOM] AOSP 2.3 "MrTim123" - Rev 0.0.2 [xRecovery]
or
[ROM - SE] 2.3 "MrTim123" - Rev 0.0.2 [xRecovery]
Thoughts? Does it make it needlessly complicated?

To be fair, no one who has uploaded a modded ROM has classed it as "custom", and most, I think, have clearly stated what it is in their descriptions.
Developer
I fear that the x10 will end up like the new psp chipsets... unhackable..

One could say it's a Modded Rom or a Back-Up

Which one is the best? (There's a twist to this question - read inside) :)

Hello everybody,
To be honest, I haven't been reading the rules recently but I realized from one other topic that asking for ROM recommendation here is the forbidden thing...
Therefore, dear moderator and/or admin, before you pull the trigger and delete or lock this topic, please read this post till the end. Who knows, maybe it survives...
Having in mind that P7500 and P7510 had very limited official distribution of ICS for some reason, majority of users of Tab 10.1 are still at Honeycomb (yours truly as well).
I have definitely decided to make a move and do something about that but I need a bit of a help. A guidance, clarification and simplification of what are my choices.
Is it possible to make a kind of overview of the current Android versions offer for this specific tablet? What I'm aiming at is the short summary of which functions/features are buggy/unavailable under which Android versions. So, I am not asking for recommendation of the particular ROMs, but the version of Android I should pursue.
To summarize: Could you help me select the appropriate version of Android (v4, v4.1 or v4.2) for Tab 10.1 by pointing out what does not work (properly) in them?
Thank you very much for helping!
Bye!
We hear you.I will not delete it or lock it.
But hey look how the... we are moving as we speak incredible

I'm researching this exact question for a frend who just recieved one of these tablets. I'd definitely be interested in seeing something like this. (Actually, it'd be awesome to see a comparo/feature list for Roms for all the individual devices here on xda)
I ABSOLUTELY hate it when developers writes "You tell me" in the Bugs section of the first post of ROM threads. The only way to know if the ROM suitable for me is to try it out, and this is hard for some people who are always pretty busy in their lives. Of course, you can read the posts to find out the bugs, but sometimes that doesn't help much. It would be much easier if the developers just list the bugs in current version of the ROM (these are often told by users), and update the post when the bugs fixed.
Suggest a suitable ROM
Suggest a suitable ROMs, that are available for my TAB 10.1 (WiFi + GSM) in 4.1.1 / 4.1.2/ .......
I really do not understand the abbrv... P4, P4wifi, p4tmo, p4vzw, only for GSM or only for wifi
Now I am using "JellyBeanRom ICS v7 + A1 Kernel V1.8.3 + Voice Call Enable Stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM Build 1
Thank you for allowing us to ask such questions

p4 = WiFi + 3G (some call it the international release / global release version of Tab 10.1) aka P7500
p4wifi = WiFi only version aka P7510
p4tmo = T-Mobile version
p4vzw = Verizon Wireless version
Suitable ROMs depends on u mainly... I am using the same ROM as what u are using right now.

I hate that too...but sometimes, not everyone face the same problems/bugs. Not everyone have bugs. Some may have the bug that u have, some may not be having it. Unless the devs themsleves are facing it then it'll be listed. If not, then it should be fixed. But, if u are facing any bugs even when in the OP says there is no bugs, just ask for assistance then. Hence. the "You Tell Me" statement in the bugs section. :good:

What's different between Android development and Original Development?

As we know
There 2 sections
Android Development and
Original Android Development in S3 forum
Can't figure out what's different.
First I thought one is for AOSP /CM, other is for stock based ROM but I saw both AOSP/CM and stock based RON in both sections, so I really don't understand what's different about them...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Imho these titles are a bit confusing.
What is original development?
Samsung Stock development can be called original cause it's the original firmware.
But AOSP based development can also be called original development because well Google's code is original.
It seems the latter is used for XDA and topics often get created in the wrong forum, and then moved to the correct forum (sometimes way to late).

Honestly who would want THAT on their phone ?? If you want a bad rom supercharged with crap and bloatware, you can stick to TouchWiz... and for everyone else, you can pretty easliy tweak it to look like you want.
Not worth the work and time at all IMHO. xD

The reason no one is replying you is because this is NOT the right place to post for requests
Only the following topics are allowed in DEVELOPMENT area:
[DEV] - Development for any special projects or Apps
[ROM] - Custom ROMs
[KERNEL] - Custom Kernels (usually found in Original Development)
[MOD] - Hack & Modifications for the phone with code only, zips go in themes and apps
[FIX] - Fixes for known issues & bugs
[R&D] - Research & Development for Devs only, when gathering data for a new projects
[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] - How to instructions and Guides (Most of the time should be in General)
Note: If you are unsure where your new topic should go, then please post it to General

Custom ROM for samsung a01 core?

Hi there XDA forums
I'm looking for a custom ROM for a Samsung a01 core since Samsung's system is crashing the settings and the amount of bloatware they added into it.
I'm still new to the "custom ROM" topic, so I thought asking here is better than google it for an custom ROM for the phone (i tried searching it, but only shows websites containing fake stuff on custom ROMs that is not even supported to the device)
I'm also looking for an especially rom that is on the android go version (or one that's small but still on android 10 or 9, since some apps I use every day need these versions to work.)
Any idea how can I start my journey into the custom ROMs? thanks!
(note: sorry if my English is a little bit broken, I am from Brazil and I'm still learning English)

There are no rom's for the Galaxy A01 core yet, but you can remove the blootwares with root.
There are already tutorials to root galaxy A01 core.
