[Q]Make/Edit roms? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyone here that has the time to teach an idiot (namely ME ) how to make/edit roms and all that?
If wrong place for thread please redirect me,THANK YOU!

Editing a full rom is very hard and time taking....just edit SystemUI and framework-res to change the look and feel of rom. For example see my themes...all made on same rom but works on all phones...link below

Not entirely true.
The original ace got its first custom rom by muaythaifighter before it got custom kernel, way back in july last year.
Not sure if the stock s5830i kernel had init.d support or not, but its not mandatory.
Just deodex, add powermenu option, add ics animation, add crt animation, add overscroll glow, themed framework, change fonts, repack as cwm flashable zip and u got a nice custom rom.

nope, those thing is not nesessary but its a nice addon feature to had.
use the search button or look into ace theme and app subforum.

Android themes need a good guide

Hi I want to learn all about making themes for Android roms please point me in the right direction to find easy learning guides using windows 7 to theme on jellybean and ICS and gingerbread thanks
do you want to make cm7/cm9/10- themes or flashable themes? if yes, you have to dwcompile the apks and mod them how you want... i dont know more at the moment, im also searching a good tutorial (at the end i will probably find it out by trying^^).
If you wanna make flashable zips for gingerbread roms use uot kitchen,.its easy and makes fun, legends say it can also make cm7 themes but i couldnt create one till now... for uot you only have to extract two files out of your rom, systemui out of /system/app and frameworkres out of /system/framework
maybe start over with that

that is the official thread with tutorial, its easy just type uot in google, you will find the site, click on "kitchen" and choose and customize your mods, then go to "upload files" (can do this first to save time) and choose "upload system apps", then upload em and click on "summary", if all mods are green click on "cook" and wait, you will get a code (you only need it if somethings not workin).
then you can download it after ~20-30 minutes from "pickup", you can also do that from your phone , then flash via cwm and enjoy

Most ot the themes are installed in data\app like an apk file (for ex.Blue.apk,IOS7.apk,Classic.apk).
If you want to get rid of them you just uninstall them .I hope that i help you..

You can use that...
There are a lot more apps like that, some requires root and some don't need it.
In those apps you need an internet connection to download different fonts and the procedure to apply fonts seems to be weird in all those (my experience only)..... Sometimes the font wont be successfully apllied.
But here in this case, if you are using a Stock or Stock based Custom rom and if u are a rooted user, then you simply copy this font file to the particular location and then reboot the phone, that;s it... Good to go.
After restarting, there will be a large number of fonts, you can apply any fonts without problems...
no internet, no tedious procedures, etc..........
