I admit it! Im overwhelmed with all the information on this site. I would really appreciate the technical expertice of this helpful community. So far Ive installed HardSPL and im downloading roms from alex, faria, and thinkin about dutty's roms. Im researching on which radio version is the best for me and so far it looks like 1.47.30.10 from DR Puttingham's experience. Im also starting to understand that the best way is really to cook up your own rom but id rather start with a lite or clean version with great looks, speed, functionablitly. Im curious as to why I only see a few people cooking up roms when i know there are better chef's out there like...molski? again...what do i know..im just a noob.
so here i am asking the vast community their opinions of best of...
best chef? (not just for quantity but for quality)
best lite/clean rom?
best full rom?
most useful radio along with your location?
top useful programs?

You know you're never going to get a proper answer to these as everyone has their own preference not mention they aren't gonna say one is better than the other... Why not just try them all and see what you like?
And I think most people don't cook their own ROMs cause:
1) They don't want to learn how to, or
2) They don't have the time, or
3) Somebody else is already doing the hard work (and doing it well..), so why bother?
Personally, I think I'm a combination of the 2nd and 3rd, which therefore makes #1 redundant (for me)..

okay ... first of all you should really think about what you post before you post.
You can't compare the chefs because each one invests there precious time into our community here (WITHOUT COMPENSATION) and does the hardwork for us of making a rom that is better than the piece of **** our carrier shipped us. So in my eyes they are all the greatest and bestest. Choosing a radio is a trial experience you have to find the one you like that best suites your location.
And if you don't like what other chefs are doing get the dumped rom for your carrier and work on it your self.
this by the way is the nicest reply you'll probably get (not unless someone just won the lotto or got laid or is stoned .. .in which case they won't be able to reply ...)

You are not the first, and wont be the last to ask these kind of questions "Best,top,most"
Here are 3 outcomes:
OMG WTF BBQ stupid question
MY IS TEH LEETEST ( ego boost )
There is no best, only what you think is best.
but most of people have their brains working will either go 1 or 3. So, put on your flame suit and start flashing.

Yes . and no .
99% radio out there are safe and you can freely switch around.
But, there is 1 radio ( kinda newest ) will keep you stuck. I dont wanna tell you cuz I want you to find out. More fun.
Please go read. This is the most simple thing that you shouldve known. Q
Thanx! U guyz r gr8

Oh **** , LOL , didnt notice
You da man , I award you with the title "XDA chief detective "
Are there any sites that explain in detail how to build an Andriod ROM, I've googled it, but nothing of any relavence. I want to learn how to build one.
interesting as well. Waiting some BIG guy to give a guide.
It would be nice, Maybe like a complete kitchen ala WM.
Former WinMo ROM builder (Touch Pro) and looking for the same info.
snag JF's 1.51 build environment from here:
http://jf.andblogs.net/2009/05/24/jfv151-images-are-out/
that will at least point you in the right direction.
you can always modify an existing update.zip and resign it using the testsign.jar tool
i'd love to see a step by step guide as well
A guide would be realy helpful, and greatly appreciated! Been experimenting on my own, but I'd love to see a Ion build enviornment.
Wow, so it looks like we are all making an official request for someone to put together a "Roms for Dummies" or similar..... Who's got the pull to make this happen, lol
there's cyanogenized rogers, a very good sample to start with
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524160
I'm a Herald cook, and I would also love to learn this.
Making ROMs for WM devices is so limited, I'm looking forward to this.
This would be awesome... I know just enough to be dangerous... but would rather have some sort of guide to get things going right.
I would have to agree with everyone above me, having some sort of step-by-step guide with a list of necessary tools would be very handy to have. Especially for someone who's just starting out and no idea what certain things do.
I would appreciate some kind of basic tutorial in this direction, too.
I have just been a little confused about how to resign an update.zip if I want to change any files inside of it, and then rezip.
Well.... Lets see if we can't get a Mod to come up with a cool idea of appointing someone who knows what they are doing (i.e. NOT ME), or themselves to collect everyone's pieces, and put them all together into a newb friendly version, and lead up to an advanced version. Talk about really opening the door to new developers. Eh? Whatya think?
I would love to learn too

Yeah I think it is definite. People want to know how to make their own ROMs.

CRAP that looks like martian talk to me LOL. Well judging from that link we all have to learn some Linux boys. Ive been on windows for years and its all i know, but i do want to learn how to work on ROM's. I''ve heard that Ubuntu is the easiest to learn coming from a windows environment, please steer me in the right direction if im wrong. I guess illl have to dual boot my laptop to night.
guys this is not a question, this is a "plea" for some help...
if one of the great dev's out there would be kind enough to enable multitouch on this rom http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1701190/kb7sqi-magic-full-V2.7.2.zip
i, and many others who use this rom, would really appreciate it
ps: i did pm the dev who cooked it, but he didn't answer, so i thought i take my chances elsewhere..
what ROM is this??
my bad..
its a rogers rom that comes with a flash player enabled browser and other sweets that come with a rogers rom, such as the smart dialer, apart of course from being lightweight, which makes it run smoothly on my 32b G1
more details can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567371
come on guys..is this really too much to ask?

patience. devs do this voluntarily at their own time. demanding for features won't really get you anywhere. Especially with 2.1 AOSP being out there now, i'm sure there's a lot already going for them.
Try this: http://lukehutch.wordpress.com/2009/01/25/get-multi-touch-support-on-your-t-mobile-g1-today/
Don't know if it works for your rom since it's originaly made for 1.1, lol.
Thanks for the tips guys..
Unfortunately the above link suggests installing a different rom to get a mt enabled kernel.
Sorry if i sounded pushy. Didn't mean to...
I was just wondering what it takes to apply the mt patch to the kernel thats all
I think you can't just install multitouch on a rom because it needs to be in the kernel. So or you wait the rom builder of your rom includes it in his rom, or you need to try another rom.
what base firmware is this ROM using?
i dont have time to research it
Its cupcake 1.5
kingklick,
just wanted to say that its really nice of you to show interest in helping others.. you must be a really nice guy
thank you
just checking..
i feel like a little kid askin' for candy here...but i don't care
kingclick, was you inquiring about the base firmware here an indication that you'll help out? i really hope so...
You wont find someone to do this. You've cluttered the developers thread with your groveling. You should read up on the methods and do it yourself. Plus, then you could do a lot of extra goodies. If you want something done, do it.
well..

you mean learn java and android programming, and in a few months, or maybe a year, i'll be able to do it all myself... sounds like a great idea..
but here's a better one,
in this world we live in, there are specialized and professional people, each in their own field, so when someone "like you or me" need something that is not in our ability or specialty, we seek a professional...
i don't mean to be rude, but this could easily be compared to learning dentistry to do your own tooth...
haven't you asked for any help from anyone in your life?
If you really want MT in browser why not use dolphin or one of the alternate browsers in the market?
mt is missing in the rom itself, the patches were not applied..

i have had it Guy's i am going to attempt some hard core development on this thing but i will be requiring some help from step 1 to finish.
i will be basing My rom attempt on the stock build 3.2 but i will totally change it to the best on my abilities.
all i ask is that someone offers me some help and/or buy me a beer or 2 coz its gona be hard to get this going.
i am quite new to all this so some ideas of what u want wouldn't go a miss and/or help.
thanks all.
If you never built a ROM it will take some time. Will need Linux set up obviously. There is definetly a lot of help online. Think you may run into same issue as garyd, no wifi module source code.
Best of luck, were all dying for a single ROM.
I have a couple cool things planned in the next few days for our tab.
Cheers.
Moved to General because this isnt development... not yet anyway.
Also, check around, there are a lot of good threads/posts here to help start you off... a lot of them were started and created by Gary.

I know ETA questions are not allowed, but I'm just curious as to the general development of the phone.
Is anyone still working on this phone (more specifically, ROMs like aosp based hopefully)? I'm not being needy saying people need to do so, but I just want to know so I can decide whether to stay with this phone or not.
It's getting quiet around here...
Edit: I realize it takes a lot of work too. I don't have a good computer at the moment or I'd at least try and contribute. Sorry.
soon......

Here seems like a good place to offer. While I lack the time and complete coding knowledge to build something, I will be more than willing to test anything anyone needs tested (I've the t-mobile version).
