His name is Tom, he's being silly.
No one here has created a kitchen, and so far none of the devs have any interest in creating one. Kitchens lead to ROM creators who have no understanding of how their devices work, and this is a bad thing.
I suggest that you try to find MikeyMike's ROM authoring guide, I think it's somewhere in the Captivate forums. There are a bunch of other guides too.
I suggest starting small - learn about theming and deodexing, then try to perform some small mods (e.g. modifying an existing ROM with a small CWM-flashable mod), then think about full ROMs after you've learned the smaller stuff.

Yes it was a joke, sorry for the confusion lol

No offence but If this tutorial is way to much, you should even be considering building a custom rom

Let me rephrase what I said because I'm reading it now and I can see why it came across like that.
The tutorial is ok and it shows a couple in depth stuff but it doesn't fully cover everything, not the little things I've had to go around xda to find to make my build work.
Simply put it not a full tutorial but it comes close.

Does this really helped anyone??
I just wanna know because i own a non famous android phone which has very less roms and mods so i just wanna use this method to compile
ROMs for my phone from sources like cm repos.

i used to make pots roms for the lg p500, i tried to make one for my atrix 2 and nothing, i asked to some developers of atrix 2 (very famous by the way) and i tell them how i make those ports and they tell me that it was other metod for our atrix 2, and NEVER TELL ME WHAT WAS THAT METOD, I ASK LIKE 3 MORE TIMES AND NEVER GET AN ANSWER. It was depressing :crying::crying::crying:

Hi thanks for posting this tutorial and for your work. One thing would like to ask is if anyone no's of some more links or books as I would like to learn how to code and correct bugs and add features to ROMs or build my own. I would greatly appreciate any help thanks in advance.

Installing CWM Recovery

Hi
I wanted to ask if there's any way to install CWM directly on galaxy R without using ODIN.The problem with my cell is that its micro usb port is damaged and its not detectable on computer.So the only way i can connect my cell is using kies and bluetooth.My Phone is rooted and have a yellow triangle at the beginning and have a custom kernal installed.I want to fix these problems before giving my cell to SSC.Guys i need serious help.i have been googling for three days but didnt find any thing useful.Thanks in Advance

If u download adam77root's cwm 5.x.x.x in your phone, rename it to update.zip and then use install update.zip option in stock recovery, will that work?
I m not sure, let some expert reply first to this.

I was experimenting with bypassing signature verification or creating a signature, but didn't manage to make it. I finally thought it's easier to flash with Odin.

Yeah i know its piece of cake to flash using odin but my problem is damaged micro usb port

Maybe Mobile Odin can do the trick. I remember that one of our users asked Chainfire to support SGR....maybe it works now...?

I completely agree mate. I don't understand why these well known developers won't support our efficient device. What irks me more is that fact that there's support for those ****ty Xperia phones with their ****ty hardware but not for our device. I think we should try and get some attention. Who knows, one big developer and things could change drastically for us:thumbup::beer:

Well, I think Chainfire has work enough... I readed he has some phones "under consideration" to developing support for them in MobileOdin, but all of them sent their dumps and kernels during the last year (2011), so probably, we could conquer GalaxyR support for 2013-Q4 :crying::crying::crying:

Chainfire is one of the most busiest and best developers on xda. He works basically exclusively on flagships just like all the most famous devs do. This is how it is. He has already started to develop on SGS3 and I've read he's even willing to abandon S2 totally due to lack of time. (take a look at the number of just his premium apps on the market.) When he decide to give support then it's really enormous contribution. So I can really understand why he don't have time for other phones. Every little piece of such development takes time.
If I may suggest something, before being punished, don't spam his threads. I really don't think it will make anybody work and another thing different communities can be really very agressive towards such initiatives. Kindly ask him as cooleagle suggested.

Account hacking in sake of roms?How safe are we???

Well... There's always a small chance of getting all your info stolen wheter or not you're using a custom rom, but I think none of the developers in this site would want somebody's passwords, at least in this section of the forum.
Most of these developers just do this for fun, what would you win by stealing a google account or whatever can be stolen?
Of course there are apps in the google play that do that, but if you use simple apps i'm sure you'll be fine.

Hello

[DEV-ONLY] Android L Port

Hi guys,
First I must begin by saying that I am not a developer. However, using this: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008) thread, I have managed to "port" Android L to the One, though I have no clue if it even boots. There are a few problems that need to be discussed:
1) AOSP ROMs are around 400 mb? This one is 900+ mb.
2) When I was zipping the ROM, I saw Prism.apk was also in it, and a heck lot of other HTC related things.
3) Will the current kernel for KitKat work smoothly on L?
Anyway, this is my first step to being a potential developer and hope you all get excited for this. I do have one request though, if I can get a few devs to work with me on this, we can get to new heights on our One.
You can download the zip I created here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4JA1Kc3xlxiZUw2XzNzM1NKMVU/edit?usp=sharing

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR DEVICE GETS BRICKED.
Thanks in advance,

Can you attach the Build.prop file?

If you're going to post it at least try it yourself first man, this could brick everyone's device.

Did you miss the [Dev-Only] in the title? Every flash on your device could brick it if you aren't careful, nothing unique with this build. If you don't want to risk it, don't flash. Simple as that.

But as far as I remember, I did not do anything to it. The base ROM that I used was a stock deodexed Sense 6 ROM and the port ROM I used was the system dump from Android L, if that helps.

Im not a dev just a general user but I don't think we should be creating these types of threads if you don't know what you're doing. Let the real devs do their work if it was as easy as following a copy/pasting port guide every device would already have a l build. Just be patient and eventually a nice dev will maybe make some magic happen for us.

This ROM will not work, period. The reason is because you did not follow step 1 of the guide which states quite clearly:
"Take any clean CM9, AOSP, CM7, CM10, CM11 ROM which is running on your device as Base ROM."
Now, don't know about you but I do not think a stock deodexed Sense 6 ROM counts as any of those mentioned in step 1... that is why you are seeing HTC things in the ROM.

no man, you can not do this because we have not a base for L! so it should be ported compiling source and fixing bug and issues...is not a thing that you find in a guide

estabien said:
I think your best bet would be to download the Nexus 5 sources and then do some "patchwork" with HTC One libs and whatnot, when needed. The good thing is that they are both at the same resolution and have similar specs.
And after you're done with that, you should be able to build with a couple of adjustments to various build-related things.
EDIT: Also, there will probably be issues with kernels? so you'll have to work through that also.

You can't be patching and copy/pasting libs. No zip modding when it comes to porting big base changes
You'll need to decompile and redo your ramdisk etc. And like jonny said you can't be using sense and gpe parts

Android L Keyboard in Play Store
I just wanted to note that there's a third-party application "Android L Keyboard" by Shen Le in the Play Store which I've been using on the latest CM11 nightlies that works great.
I understand that's not the point of this project but I just wanted to make sure other users are aware. Also, it's kind of scary to have to trust that a keyboard from the Play Store isn't logging and reporting your keystrokes but that's another issue entirely... anyways I added a screenshot, good luck with the project!
:good:
