I am looking for all the original HTC Dream firmwares, for ROM cooking purposes, but I couldn't find any (except the 1.5 and 1.6 ADP1 updates which aren't enough for me, I want 2.0, 2.1 and maybe 2.2 too).
Please do not misunderstand me, I know there are only a few limited releases for this phone (no official FroYo/Éclair, etc), under original I meant a clean, unmodified firmware (max modification is any app2sd, root). Is there any such file?
I'm very desperate to start cooking (and do not base it on any recent release, like CyanogenMod, or anything else. Of course they are very good, I appreciate all the modders' work, that's why I don't want to make anything based on it - it is like stealing their work. I know how it feels, as I am a Symbian developer for a while - I've been stolen, remade, etc, many times).
Honestly, I think CyanogenMod is the closest you're gonna get to a "vanilla" G1 Eclair/Froyo ROM.
There are plenty of people that base their ROM's off Cyanogen. Obviously I can't speak for him, but I don't think he minds people using his ROM's as long as they give him credit.
You could grab CyanogenMod and remove the extra apps he's put in there like ADWLauncher and that would be about as close to a stock ROM as you'll get, I think.
Here you go
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=OTA_Updates
There is not a release from HTC that is for the G1 (ADP1) beyond 1.6. This is because 2.x required more space on /system then the G1 has. that is why the eclair/froyo versions of CyanogenMod require dangerSPL.
If you want a vanilla version of android, you will have to build from source, which you should do any how. You want to get the source from AOSP. But honestly, the work that the CM team has done makes the CM build a better option. Like the addition of FLAC support, for example. All of the source to CM is available on github, so you could, pull from AOSP and CM if you wanted.
CM is anything BUT stock. It is huge, with lots of stuff thrown in. Everything including the kitchen sink.
Another much more "basic" 2.2 to start with is Jubeh's: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709201
Note that BOTH have expressed that they have no problem with anyone building on their work and ask only for respectful citation of their work.

exactly
you could also check out my AOSP roms in my 4shared box
I understand that they do not mind, but I (we) plan to create an Online ROM Kitchen, from base, and for this, I need the most basic firmwares. Probably I will build from source (though there is no proper guide how to build for a specific device, because G1 (dream) is in the added phone's folder (src/device/htc/dream/), and I could not find any guide to build it :S), but that is the last option (mostly because for Ubuntu, Java JDK 5 is not available anymore, and it IS required to build).
One more question: the Cyanogen source, is it the whole stuff I need to build a basic image, or do I need the AOSP too?

I believe it is still available, you just need to change your sources list in ubuntu to get it Try this

sdk is now compatible with jdk 6
you can install jdk 5 on ubuntu 9.10+
add
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty multiverse
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jaunty-updates multiverse
to your repositories
then
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jdk

Did you do a google search?
http://source.android.com/source/building-dream.html
** note that AOSP 2.2 will build for dream just fine, some things may have changed since that guide, and some stuff will be quite broken. That is why I point you at Jubeh's build -- it is close to stock, but fixed/functional.

Sun/oracle still provides JDK5 from their legacy site... or as mentioned, ubuntu has it still in repo.

As I said, you can't build a basic image from CM source -- it simply isn't BASIC, it is as mod as you get.
It is enough to build a full CM build, however....

Yes I did, I was hoping in a much more modder-made step-by-step tutorial (google was always a bit foggy with their build instructions).

Tried to install it over Lucid Lynx (10.04) but both Synaptic both apt-get said the given package does not exist.

Under "basic image" I meant a proper, final, working image of CyanogenMod. But if it is enough, I will try with it, thank you.

or just add the jaunty repos..
AND as I said, you can use JDK 6 which is in 10.04..
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#quickstart
this is all very basic stuff, maybe you should rethink what you want to do and just kang an AOSP FroYo like some other 'devs' did

For the SDK maybe, but I don't want to develop applications, but to understand source compiling, learn how to create ROMs (and maybe automate it), and such things. I never said I'm a developer - I just want to be one. And that will not happen soon, as I have to learn a lot, even though I was following Android from the very beginning.
Fedora has released Fedora-17-beta-armhfp-xfce, a system image compatible with Tegra devices. A kernel image is not included. So, my first question is: Are there any kernels being tweaked and developed by xda members that are compatible with the the Fedora release? If not, it appears from the many posts in the forums asking about Linux on arm tablets that there is a void to be filled.
I for one want to be free of big brother "Google" and regain not only full control over my device, but my privacy too. Richard WM Jones describes how he installed Fedora on a Trim Slice with Tegra processors. rwmj.wordpress.com/2012/02/29/trim-slice-pt-3/ Can't this be done with the Xoom using a hacked kernel being tweaked/developed by an xda member? Is a kernel already available with drivers that make the Xoom's hardware fully functional in a Fedora installation?
Can the "U boot" ROM supplied with the Slice be ported to the Xoom? We need help from knowlegeable, experienced developers here at xda to make the possibilities a reality.
Thanks,
Armido

Fedora does not replace android but can be installed.

May 26, 2013: The short answer is apparently no. Not even Ubuntu Touch will replace the android core. However a growing number of linux distributions can be installed using installers like 'Linux Installer' downloadable for free from GooglePlay. This includes Fedora. What is the point of having Ubuntu Touch on tablets if the rich, robust and numerous existing linux programs will not run on Ubuntu Touch?

Hi ramin,
do you use kitchen under windows (cygwin) or linux distribution (like ubuntu)? seems you didn't install gcc compiler.

HI guys! I need help with compiling Bochs for android, Bochs is a virtual machine that emulates diffrent Operating systems on android such as windows 98,XP and many others!
Korv2003 compiled bochs 2.5.1 for android back in 2008 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389700
but no one has compiled it since then and we are not getting any new versions out. Me and alot more would be extremely glad if someone that knows how to compile these files could compile the new Bochs versions 2.6.1 and beyond, for android!
The newer versions are both faster and have more features! So please anyone that knows how to do this help out !

Bump
it seems that no one is interested in this project. i'd love to see any new version because the 2.5.1 out there is really out of date and slow as hell. i've read that newer versions are speed up to 50%. i can't understand why no1 tries to port version 2.6.6 to android.

I can take a crack at it. I'm not a pro at porting apps. I just recently learned how so don't hold your breath. I will give it the ol' college try though

Did you manage to do it?
Hopefully someone will post the latest version..
It's already been done. Check here, you can compile it yourself. There's a build file for each operating system and instructions for android in the Android folder. Not my work, just a lucky find. https://github.com/lubomyr/bochs?files=1
tried this version (russian), but you can try use google translate.
in russian 4pda. ru there is detailed manual for 2.6.8 .

[Windows RT 8.1] Development Tool V3.0 BUILD XXXX
This project is deprecated and no longer actively maintained as of 1st July 2019.
Deprecation of the Development Tool
Dear folks,
After almost three years, we finally came to an end. As of today, 1st July 2019, this project is deprecated and no longer actively maintained. Why? Simply because I do not own a Windows RT device anymore. I replaced it with a Surface Pro (2017) and I am very very happy with the replacement.
The last version of the Development Tool, which can be found here (and of course the GitHub page about the tool).
If there is anything, feel free to contact me.
Kind regards,
VNNGYN
P.S. I really want to thank @Qiangong2 for all his help. Without him, this project would have never existed.

For some reason after going to test signing mode I could not run the Perl package that was release some days ago. To make it work I hard to resign the dll and exe with my own certificate.

I quickly made a script to sign apps a bit easier, simply copy it to the apps folder, right click and run it as admin, it creates a .cer, searches and signs all dlls and exes in the dir and sub dirs.
Ensure you have your path set for Windows Kits bins
ie

Just want to say thanks. I'm a noob and no idea how to sign software, and have 0 patience on trying to find out. Waited 2 years for this thing to be JB'd and finally it's done, thanks to Myriachan as well. The feeling is like that time I went from WP8 back to Android.
