Do you need testers? Cz that's all i can help with but i can push my limits to development if you can guide me through

I can help you with the server but I can lend you mine.

what do you mean by server

2 great developers in 1 rom...this would be GREAT! :good: I can be a tester if you want me to.

Could we have a general thread to talk about it ?
What do you mean with new OS ? something different than Android ? compatible with apks ?

Testing
I would gladly help with testing! That's the only thing I know how to do around development It's always nice to see development on X10.
Will you be working on a 3.x kernel? Because without it all the work is pointless for such a big and ambicious project! As the 2.6.x kernel is SERIOUSLY out of date.

i agree that a 3.x kernel would be really useful , but it can be a different project . it needs time ( much time ) , and it is not that easy to make a new kernel and port correctly all the drivers ...

you say that you have a base , is it built from source or it is based on other rom ?
is there any source code ? i've only seen kernel and rom on fera's github , but i think that rom is not for this project​

Missed that part!
I completely agree with you, porting a kernel is very vary hard work and takes different programming knowledge than working on a ROM. Why I'm saying this about 3.x kernel, As it's stated in the beginning of the OP this ROM will be made first for X10 (as both contributors are active for X10 - used both of there ROMs and both are great ) and then for other phones too. I perceive the goal will be newer phones? And all of those use 3.x kernel.
On another note, Tof37 made a 3.0.8 kernel for X10. It boots but there are still many many problems. The thread on that kernel has been dead for over a month, so I suppose the development has stopped. But it could be a great point to start from!
Here, go through this and this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2608856
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666426
Basically what I am saying is that time invested in making a 3.x kernel is a good investment.
This is a big and ambitious project and I support you guys all the way! Please be persistent with this, one day you might be as big as MIUI and CM!

Development is not stopped ... I'm just getting stuck with wifi and BT problems with this kernel ...
 @Buda1996 and @FeraVolt
Feel free to use my sources for 3.0.8 kernel
I wish I could help with this project but I don't have much time those days.
Regards,
Tof37

Let show to the world that an old device can work long due to a community of developers. I guess we need a new kernel.

Thanks Tof37, those are great news good luck with your work!

hi buda1996 & feravolt, any development in your Black OS project?

If it's not difficult, why can't you try port the rom linked above and the relater kernel?
Porting the rom could be more simple than starting from scratch
Search!
If I know right Virus don't have Evo 3D anymore and everybody, which make any ROM for Evo 3D have aplication in venomroms.com
Please, someone which have experience and 1 or more maked project get to venomroms.com and run aplikacion

To all developers , please read this ..

Hello ,
After 3 years of development different roms from all versions ( from android 2.3 and up ) , in the last days , developers turned to work on the latest android version ( 4.4 kitkat ) and leaving the older ones , they are right anyways newer is better of caurse , actually all development section is filled up with 10 active threads of kitkat roms and one or two of ics .
Well , that's not the problem , the problem is that there are 10 threads means 10 devs who are working on their ported roms , yes , but they are all based on Mike's "infinished" cm11 . And because Mike is working alone on it , development is slow , and as a result the other's one will be slow as well , and that's the case from the begining !
My point is , developers who are wishing to base their work on a "infinished" one , they should first help in finishing it as quick as possible then they do what ever they want ,there are great devs out there , I mean why they don't try to make a team and work together on big processes like porting a propre cm11 or like what you have done with nAa and 3.4 kernel ? that will help a lot the devs and the community , and Mike has always said "On the i9001, 8 devs work on 1 device, while on our side, 1 dev works on 8 devices" about how cm11 development goes with other devices .
If you agree with me make your move and form your team to do things faster !
devs :
- @mikeioannina
- @alinolaw71
- @Dark Raven
- @vishal_android freak
- @Amir Hoseinina
- @Langes
- @3andala

If the thread is in the wrong section , please MODs move it to the right section . And if you find it unuseful , please delete it
Thank you very much .
job.
in the past few days i was thinking about making such thread like this...but u made my work easy ...completely agree with u man...thanks alot
If I'm not wrong, many people you named are only themers, code developing and zip editing are different things.
Keep in mind, that there aren't many people with at least basic knowledge of building Android.
kinda agree with this one, there's no significant differences between those kitkat rom (except PAC )
yep, most of "developers" just change apps/icons not code like @mikeioannina
yes maybe cause I didn't pay attention to who is expert or not but everyone can help at least with his current knowledge , in addition to the others who are experts in coding roms and kernels mentioned there .
If Mike , as the main cm11 dev , make request to developers , that will help a lot like what nAa did in the past .

Its very easy to say that " many people you named are only themers and most of them just change apps/icons not code "
Just try once to make a z1 or z2 framework for cm...!!!
It takes alot of efforts just to port z1 or z2 framework compatible to themes
And most of the rom dev prefer to work on mike's rom because they feel easy to download a 200mb zip file and work on it instead of downloading 50gb of source code
And now a days there are.many users who have downloaded the source code and building their "self compiled " build
But they are just downloading the new commits and compiling a build
There's a difference between source coding and only compiling some commits
Ya...compiling sources is also not a simple job as bugs reports are given..no doubt about that
So devs like mike langs dark revan and mardon who are actually working on cm 11 should be given their time to give us a stable cm 11 as we dont have enough knowledge about making changes in the source code

Please don't keep tagging Mike here again and again, he will not like it... he has already been tagged once in the OP
also, as has already been stated above, off the top of my head, only Langes and Mike have the expertise to work at kernel level, most of the other JB+ kernel developers have abandoned our devices...
Hmmm...honestly there only a few real developer for our 2011 devices....other just some that port roms from different version of custom roms...most of them just download from mike source and build up them there.....those were the guys can give us variety of custom roms for 2011 devices...there also other than just maintainer from certain team....there are also the one that mostly help mike by submitting same patches to fix and bug on mike build....
all of them depending on mike source code to build their own version of custom roms....remember their might be the developer of the certain roms but there are all depending on mike just like we user do....

Android Lollipop 5.0 ROM on Low and Mid End Devices

I have an idea. My idea is a Custom ROM for Mid end and Low end devices based on Android Lollipop 5.0 but I cannot Port Roms. I Need You. I Need People who can Port Roms.
First I think that the Rom Must have very many stable Performance tweaks because the Rom should be Runs speedy like a SlimRom.
The kernel are a normal custom Kernel with dualboot options. I am still working on a Kernel what Runs with no lags, no bugs and it Runs very speedy and who can works on unlimited systems (dualboot,quadboot,...).
I have Not many ideas, please give me ideas who can idealized.
We can be a large and a good Team :highfive: .
Sorry for my Bad english.
Thanks from Germany
P.S Android Lollipop have Google Not bring it out but When it bring it out then We can porting the rom. We Need many ideas. Please share that on all people who can porting Roms or have many ideas
For kernel build you can ask airidosas252

[DEV ONLY] Ubuntu Touch, Firefox OS, Sailfish OS

While everyone plays around in Android world,
I thought: why not go outside it and build something not so ordinary?
I've already tagged most capable developers to this project, so if you're willing to help. let me know.
Some of these unusual OSes might never work, but we could try, at least.
No announcements, no release dates. Just for playing around. For now.

Okay.
First off, Firefox OS is coming in the game.
I've already gathered neccessary sources, so next step is to make appropriate device tree.
Since Firefox OS uses Android kernel, it wouldn't be much of a problem, I think.
The whole major work will begin upcoming weekend. Stay tuned.

Sailfish OS will be on hold. It requires Cyanogenmod 10.1 as a bare minimum. Stock ROM won't cut it.
Okay... Firefox OS... Bad news... We need completely stock AOSP ROM in order for Firefox OS to work.
I started compiling and porting it and now everything's on hold. We have to hope that Cristi succeeds with his work eventually.
All of these OSes are similar to Android (uses same kernel, uses same drivers, work literally the same) but with current Jelly Bean, I can't do pretty much anything.
I will port those OSes. You can trust me, but without time, I'm powerless.

Ubuntu touch?
So Ubuntu should be easy too, as it is similliar to CM when it comes to building and porting from what i heard. I am completely noob to porting mobile OSes, but i will be trying to port it, maybe i will make something useful (I know I sound too optimistic)
Sorry for bad english
Is the ROM build completed?(Not asking for an ETA)
But Thanks for the rom.

We need custom ROMs bro. And thanks for coming back. We/I missed u alot.
Glad we have you back after such a long time..
And yes we need Roms instead of kernels.
kernel is more utility intead rom
Hi,
There are many unofficial ROMs around. It would be good to have a maintainer for an official ROM.
DU 10.6 is one of the best ROMs I have ever used. It is great to see you back. Now we are in need of a new kernel developer. It would be great if you make a new kernel
Yes need DT2W kernel
we need kernel....???
I am using moto e 2014 running on cm14.1 (lineage OS). I need a kernel for it which supports overclocking. Please make a kernel for it. It is running on android 7.1.2.
Thank You
It would be nice to have a kernel with light tweaks and DT2W, because too many "tweaks" makes the kernel some unstable like clarity kernel.
About roms, it would be nice to have DU
Sorry for my english and any misunderstood
Kernel with DT2W
AOSIP ROM please bro :laugh::good:
Possibility of a new version of the kernel? 3.10 or maybe even the latest 3.18?
