If one were interested in finding out why you can't just copy the camera apk from the stock ROM into the system/app directory of CM7 and have the stock ROM's camera at your disposal, where would one begin such an inquiry?
Hypothetically speaking.

are there any roms for the Inspire 4g that allow rosie to be rotated ...I know there is a port of the HTC Flyer rom , but it seems to still be in development or something ...so i was wondering if there is a rom out there that already has the feature , or is the a .zip file that i can flash to do it automatically , I've tried looking into recompiling but ended up yielding negative results , maybe a more simple tutorial on how to recompile , because all the tutorials that are already made are extremely confusing
Hello guys, the question might sound stupid, but i failed to find an answer anywhere. After upgrade 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 with sense 3.0 (I used prerooted rom by adidas http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1183684) My system "contacts" app appeared in Russian, and my calculator app is not well resized to look well on desire s. Please advise if it is possible to extract or find anywhere these apps in original IN ENGLISH and flash them to my current ROM system.
many thanx in advance
Hey,
well, I think that the calculator app is sized correctly. It's the way HTC designs it, first I also thought it's false but it isn't.
And for the contacts app, you may look here and extract the APK. Or better replace your rom with that from Proxuser if you want stock experience. It's a bit tweaked (kernel, other things).

But you can also look for Hyperion, one of the greatest 3.0 Sense Rom's I've tested so far

Sorry if there is already a thread, the thing that tells you if there is already one seems to not be working, but I was just wondering how to port AOKP because I can port cm9,paranoid,cm10,cm7 etc.. and all kinds of os's such as mokeeos or joyos, but I'm having troubles with AOKP. I know there is an extra step when you try to port it like CM9.
How I port CM9:
Delete App, Framework, Fonts & Media Base
Take App, Framework, Fonts & Media Out The Rom Your Trying To Port & Put It In Base
Take Android_Runtime.so Out The Lib Folder Of The Rom Your Trying To Port & Put It In Your Base Lib Folder
Thanks and again sorry if there is already a thread! Thanks and have a great day!
So, Since the Cyanogenmod source is so big (I heard that it has 19GB), people like us who have gay as slow internet have no chance of even trying to cook a ROM for our unsupported devices.
Since I can't download the whole CM source and I see awesome ROM's out there, I Ported one ROM called Cyanfox (which was made for Samsung S2 i9100) to Samsung Infuse 4G using Beanstalk ROM as a base. I followed a guide which asks me to replace some folders and edit some files. It was walking fine. Then came an update to both the ROMs, Thinking that cince it is a update, it will have the updated apps and source, I tried porting them again but this time Beanstalk updated ROM as a base cause a bootloop while the Beanstalk old ROM works fine as a Base ROM.
Now what I don't get is, why is Beanstalk new ROM not working as a base? (Since the new Beanstalk ROM will have updated Source, I want to use that ROM as my base.)
And the second question is, what files does actually matter when you are Porting or cooking an Android ROM? (I mean like windows works on all kind of PC's all it needs is the drivers right? The drivers actually matter on windows)
And the 3rd question is can I update the source files somehow without downloading the whole 19GB CM source and if possible how?
The 4rth is, I heard from somewhere that boot.img is the file which separates the phones? Then why can't we just port ROM's by replacing boot.img since these two phone's are from the same vendor and it has likely specs. (Which is not possible I think)
I am really really a newbie to this thingies, I just wanted to clear out these things. Sorry for my noobness.
Thanks!
Hey everyone, not sure if this is the right place for this, but I hope someone can help me.
I've always loved custom roms which take a stock manufacturers image and add fixes or tweaks. I love roms such as Fulmics for the LG G3.
Now that I've got quite a few phones hanging around in the drawer, I'd really like to try my hand at taking a stock image and modifying it to my heart's content. However whenever I've looked into this, I've gotten a bit lost and mostly ran into guides talking about compiling AOSP.
Does anyone have any guides or tools which can help me modify stock roms (such as LG or Nokia)?
If a phone's Android OS ( aka Stock ROM ) is rooted then it can get changed in any way according to user's wishes.
