Hai everyone,
I would like to go and build a rom myself.
I've been reading the forum a lot, but still have no clue where to start.
I want to make a dutch rom based on the official HTC WM6.1 rom.
I would like to recieve some tips and tric on how to start making a rom.
I know how to dump a rom and how to reconstruct it.
Now i want to know what tools and programs i can use to modify the rom.
For example how to remove programs and how to add them..
So i able to make a start and go my way from there.
Needless to say i will release the rom on the forum as a return of favor
Hope someone will give me some tips on how to start.
哈哈.看不懂.你想做说什么啊?
I searched in the forum, but it seems to be no present a tutorial forcooking a custom ROM.
I've got a GalaxyS, i flash many ROM and i've to install apps everytime...boring! So I wonder if is it possible to modify a custom ROM to add/remove apps for instance.
I'm a java developer, but I've got no experience with Linux... Is it a problem?
Could someone post a kind of guide to learn how to moify a ROM?

its because we have touchwiz.
if we had stock android, it would be much easier developing
Well I have an evo and I too am looking for a tutorial to cook roms. I have no developing experience and just want to learn.
count me in too! I already have ubuntu just need some direction to get started on the vibrant.
Here it is a video guide for Samsung GalaxyS (i9000)...thank you Nokia7Vista!
Edit: nevermind, thought I was in a different section
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Read read and read.
Go through the entire Android section of the Chef Central (The section you posted this in).
Check all the threads taht look promising and talk about tutorials or info or what not... Just sift through the data here and they'll have tons of links, threads, tutorials for you that you can read and learn how to do everything at...

You can modify:
framework-res.apk
All the apps, you can unpack the .apk's, located in /system/app/ and replace the icons, or even the whole app.
You can add/remove/replace .apk's, located in /system/app
services.jar
Much, much more.
If you're on Linux, you can unpack the .apk's out of the box. Otherwise, install 7zip.
Once you're done modifying them.
I was just wondering if there are any guides out there to building your own rom?
At first I want to alter a stock rom, change colours and stuff, then just build on it from there. Any advice and tips are welcome thank you
yea me too
me too ,,, can someone please share the info with us .....many thanks
hey guys I really want to know this, is it possible to port other rom's(compatible with my phone) systemui&framework-res to the current rom I'm using?
There's a particular rom that I really like the theme(framework&syatemui). But that rom is so unstable I just can't afford to use it everytime. So i think that maybe I could just port that rom's theme to my phone? But I dont have any idea how to.
Please guys I really want to know this thing. I'll be grateful if someone could help me with this problem.
somebody?
Get a decent compare software (I recommend Beyond Compare) and merge res folders in the decompiled apps.
Porting the UI that way requires lots of time, but is possible.
If you want to port smali stuff, procedure will be harder, I cant tell you how this works tho, as I havent managed to do it myself.
Hello amazing community,
I have found plenty of links on XDA on how to modify a rom but I still need a few hints.
Could anyone at all help out???
What I want to do is pretty simple.
I want to make a rom for my android box that replaces the android launcher with Kodi.
Is this even possible?
