Is there a method for signing ROMs on a Mac? I'm getting into developing ROMs but right now all I have is a Mac. I could dual-boot the Mac, but that's too much like work.
No answer on this so far?

I use Android-sign to sign zips and apks on my mac. I've attached it below and just follow readme.rtf for where to put the files. The thread about it is here.
Thanks a ton!

The only thing you have to do is read, follow instructions and make sure the proper files are in the proper locations.

Thanks haven't seen that before. Would the sdk and drivers from my incredible work? I can use adb on her phone. My problem was I can't even get temp root

Yes. SDK and drivers from HTC incredible SHOULD work. If you can get adb you're half the way there.
Please post the errors/problems you are having with getting temproot.

The first step comes from googling the topic: how to make custom rom.
have you tried this yet?
there are several hits from google, including youtube vids.
You can also read the older threads in the dev section.
You can also hang out in chat rooms and irc...you're more likely to get more help there.

I have looked at Google and you tube but all I found was for Linux or Mac OS and I haven't seen any older posts that helped

have you broken down a rom yet?
Working on it now actually

You have to build in Linux since android is a Unix based system. You can tear apart a stock, or leaked rom in windows and mod it, and/or theme it. But, to straight build a rom, HAS to be done in Linux, ie(Linux mint, Ubuntu) .

I want to start creating ROM's and need a Linux based OS so I'm downloading Ubuntu 12.04. Is this OS a good one to use, or should I have downloaded an older version?
I'm a complete n00b in Android developing, so I'm currently in the process of reading FAQ's and guides on here and Google.

hi, 12.04 is relatively new and has compatability issues regards compiling (did for me), I used 11.10 for cm7/9 if you wish to compile aosp ics/jb then use 10.04.4 (lucid) 64bit this is used by android aosp team to compile, you should have no problems with it, providing the build environment is setup correctly
Where can I get v10 or 11 from? I've downloaded and installed 12.04 but couldn't find the others.

No idea yet. Might try following a few guides on here like Sakinda's guides at creating CM9 and Evervolv and see how they go.

Does anyone know how to make an app to put on the market? What program do you use? How to test it? Much appreciated. I could really use some help.

You need to learn coding. If I recall, Java.

Usually, eclipse is used in developing android apps but other IDE can be used as well(with the installation of the appropriate plugins).
You can follow the following link to setup everything and make a simple app: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html
The app can be tested on an emulator or on a real device
SDK
As per the site given, you will have to install the Android SDK, and get at least one firmware for an app to work. then the guide will go through creating and testing your first app using cmd or eclipse(classic version 4.0 should work), with android development tools installed. happy creating!

You mean the Unlock code from the HTC dev website?
I had similar troubles, I got through it by connecting to:
#HTC-one-XL
#android-root
and
#TWRP
on irc.freenode.net using my IRC client.
and asking the friendly people there.
If you're not familiar with IRC, can you post more about your situation here?
What OS are you running on the computer?
What "steps" have you been following? Link us to the thread.
I also have a telus hox. What part are you stuck on exactly?
my IS is windows 8 I have the driver sig disabled for ADB to work and I was able to retrieve the unlock code 3 times but it will not allow me to sendthe unlock bin file. Says cannot load
Unlock_code bin file, so I followed a guide someone made for Telus one X owners and try to use a spoof bat to install it still no luck I'm on
android 4.0.3.,htc sense 4.0, fw 1.91.661.4,htc sdkapi level 4.11.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
So you got the unlock_code.bin file in your email and your put it with your adb and fastboot files correct?
And once that's in the same folder you opened a command prompt and typed
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Yes and it comes up saying cannot load that it can't load that file.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Are you sure it's in the same folder. and you are typing the command in properly with upper and lower case where it should be?
Double check the name of the file in the folder to be sure. Sometimes windows adds (1) to the end or something
Yes in sure I have rooted an htc desire z, htc desire c, Samsung galaxy tablet, nexus 7, its just this one is being very strange on the final step.

There is your problem. Win8 is extremely problematic right now. Your drivers are not synching/downloading/installing. Even with downloading HTC sync. You'll have to do that from a computer that has win7 or lower, wait for the driver updates for win8 come out, or you could dual boot you PC with Ubuntu and do it on Ubuntu.
