How do I build a rom based on my installed rom - General Questions and Answers

Hi there ! I want to build the rom that I have in my phone, so other people can install it. I have been fixing some bugs (because the original developers are working in gingerbread rom, and leave the froyo rom). I need to delete my data (accounts, personal data, maybe some extra apps, etc). How can I do this?
Thanks a lot !

[Q] Can I make my System ( Edited a Rom ) a Custom ROM ?

Hi friends..
I am using a Custom Rom..
And i edited some parts of it..
For example : Deleted google maps , talk and some unusefull apps. And added another applications to ROM memory another launcher , keyboard , messaging app and some apps which i use everyday important apps for me..
So now i am asking can i make my system a Custom ROM..
like other Custom Roms a zip file install it by CWM..
( I am not talking about Backup and Restore .. )
I need it because i like using different ROMs and it s hard when go back to use my best custom ROM have to install my usefull applications again.. If i can add my usefull applications in to a ROM it will be really great for me )
Hope someone can solve my question and explain it clearly..
Thx friends...
No one ?
No one know how to do ?
Wow i wasn't think it s really big problem but...
Seem only me trying to solve this problem
I'm not entirely sure why anybody else would be "trying to solve this problem"
If you are purely using this on your own device then there is no real difference between a nandroid backup and an installable ROM - both will take up a similar amount of space to store, both will take a similar amount of time to flash on your device, both will need updating immediately after install to bring all the apps up to date.
The main difference is that you can build your own backup already authorised to your Google account which will save you time.
If you are really serious about wanting to build your own ROM then I would suggest you have a search as there are guides in every device forum on how to use Android Kitchen, cook a ROM, add apps etc.
TRY GUIDE IN MY SIGNATURE... THERE INSTALL TOOL MENTIONED, THEN COPY YOUR EDITED STUFF IN A WORKING FOLDER(ALL SHOULD BE IN MANNER I MENTIONED) THEN PACK IT... FOR INFO CHECK THE GUIDE...
GOOD LUCK:good:

Which is best /stable ROM for explorer.

Hi ,
Please provide me the best ROM for HTC Explorer with a procedure to how to install it.
Also tell me how i can take backup of this official ROM so that i can further recover this ROM whenever i want.
I have rooted my newly Explorer but when i move applications to SD card , it moves but still it takes little internal memory so please give me that Rom which should keep everything on SD card.
Also i have heard that RAM can be increase using custom ROM.
So please provide me the that ROM which do the above thing
Thanks
Check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999273 this kind of questions are kinda rood cos guys develop roms in there own time for us with pretty much nothing getting back to them, so check oust roms changelogs and make your choice
If you want a rom which is just like stock rom in looks but is way better in performance you should usr Nextgen 1.5 rom. It already had m2sd so you can install apps to an ext partition on your sdcard. Follow the instructions in the first post of the thread and there is even an installation
instr. video at the end of the third post.
If you want to backup your current rom then go to recovery and select backup & restore then backup.
Sent from my HTC Explorer powered by Nextgen v1.5

It is not in the slightest bit rude (which is what I assume you meant by "rood") to ask which ROMs are stable. Rude would be saying "Rom X is rubbish, the developer is an idiot" or something like that. Asking which ROMs are stable is a perfectly acceptable (and very sensible) thing to do. You shouldn't have to install dozens of different ROMs only to find bugs which render your phone unusable, just to "be polite". That is a completely ridiculous notion.
To the OP: I haven't (yet) tried any of the custom ROMs, but I hear many good things about the stock CM builds (there are builds of CM9.1 [ICS] and CM10 [JB]; I believe the builds of CM10 are slightly less stable than the CM9.1 builds, which are pretty much completely stable from what I can gather). Most other ROMs on the forums are built off one of those ROMs, and so should be about as stable as the base ROM, but they could be based on older builds, which were less stable. So your mileage may vary with the other ROMs.
If you want a stable custom ROM, I'd say you should probably go for CM9.1. I personally intend to install either it or CM10 in the near future.

[Q] [Q & A] Twrp and official rom question , thanx for answer

Hi , first of all i have question about official rom - there are some news about oneplus own rom based on pure aosp and there is on the other hand cm11s and update to cm12s connected with it.. so iam really confused if there will be their own oneplus ota or cm12s ota or both.. If here is someone who know it please tell me. thanx
Secondly i want to ask about twrp and its backup - i have few backups and.. if i will install new rom - i want to try temasek based on cm12 can i use only data restore in twrp to restore all my installed apps and others ?? thanx
P.S. i dont really like their own aosp oneplus one rom.. its pure and without any customizations like in cm12.. and thath sucks,i think if there will be only their aosp oneplus rom i will use temasek.. i think all roms based 5.0.2 are 10 miles forward in progress then offi oneplus aosp based rom. thanx
CM12S is most likely not coming due to issues between CM and Oneplus. Altough this could change. Oneplus is currently developing it's own ROM, offcourse this still looks like AOSP because it basically is (except a few additions) at it's current state (alpha). Just stay tuned for their new ROM. I'm well assured it'll get better overtime.
So, that's it, I will install temasek I see.. After flash can I restore my all data (installed data etc..)i twrp recovery? Or should I use titanium backup? Thanx ☺ I think their rom based on aosp will never be like cm11 12 becouse there will not be to much settings and customizations.. Only my opinion, what do you think?

There's actually zero evidence to suggest that CM12S isn't coming, that's pure speculation. The evidence that is available (emails made public by the Indian courts) actually point to this device still receiving updates from Cyanogen.
Can someone answer me to twrp question please?
I won't advice you to restore just the data partition from a different ROM. Instead, use Titanium backup to restore your apps and data from the backup you made with TWRP (Titanium > Menu > Special Backup/Restore | Extract from Nandroid backup).
What will happen to my files when I will flash new rom, Wil they move somewhere? Becouse it's ridiculous that they will just dissappear? What I will have to do with apps data?

OnePlus One - ROM without SuperSU

Hi all,
suddenly the Temasek retire developing ROM for OnePlus One, which means quite bad news for me... due to company application limitation I can use only ROM which does not contain SuperSU, nor eXposed.
The application works only on the CM developer root ROMs. The app works on the clean CM, but I am missing a lot of features there, the @temasek ROM was awesome :good:
I started learning how to build ROM, but suddenly I do not have enough time to develop my own ROM
I would like to ask if somebody has an list of ROM which does contain only the CM developer root. I tried in past to take ROM with SuperSU and remove it inTWRP, but the app still does not work... which means once SuperSU is added to the ROM it add something somewhere, which is found by app and it refuse to work (security reasons as per app developers ).
I would like to avoid testing like 20 different ROMs ... if possible.
Thank you very much in advance. :angel:

Why Copy and Paste?

Most of the rom found here are just copy and paste with small edit.
In the lineage os based roms all roms are same including same bugs, only the theme is newly installed and new name is given to the rom, who needs it? just to chill the developer heart rom is downloaded that's all. Developers stop wasting your precious time in creating junk rom.
Stop creating junk Rom and Create a proper official or unofficial lineage os rom without bug and making fp gestures and ultra power save key customisable.
Finally
Developers create only
1--------lineage os Rom
2-------Paranoid android rom
3-------Aosp rom
4-------ressurection remix Rom (los based)
5-------AEX Rom (aosp based)
We just need a Stable Rom, and not a rom with full of bugs, if we want themes we will try subtratum, and create our own theme with ThemeDIY.
Better luck !! Any mistake let me know it in comment section.

Lineage os based roms are all same including same bugs
Yes they are but all roms have extra/different added features than los,, and have different stability, smoothness, battery backup etc

You think fixing fp gestures etc is easy??then why not fix it yourself than demanding for an fix..even dev have their own life..if u want an stable rom build it yourself,,they dont get payed and there and many roms than what u have mentioned..peace

Haha how much extra hour battery life you get?
What different feature? WhAt's new?
Most of android 7.x is same as another 7.x nothing is new, it's just a copy and paste.only user interface is different because of theme that's all. Developers Better don't waste your precious time in copy and paste.
Every rom has its own pros and cons, but for creating new rom based on something the existing Rom with bug can be solved.
I started creating a custom rom myself.
WE DON'T WANT REPLACEMENT ROM, ALL WE WANT IS RELIABLE ROM OR NOTHING. ✌✌✌
Its so much true in your statement. But you must remember, don`t like it = don`t use it. It`s xda, the biggest android community in Internet, everybody can share their work here (of course if its not against rules). Your right is to use only what you like to use. Of course its better to have only few, but rock solid roms, than 100 buggy crappy sh**... But do you think this thread could change anything? Good luck, finger crossed, but unfortunately I think that this place will be quite hot battleground. Regards

All roms are built on same sources so they have all same bugs,,,and talking about what different features,ever used roms other than los???and what theme u are talking about??rr has better customisation,aex has better smoothness,each roms are better in their own way
U started creating a custom rom yourself??y dont u build an stable oreo rom for us??devlopers wont have to waste their precious time if u build one for us?
'every rom has its own pros and cons'???just 2min ago u told that all roms are same with same bugs and only new name is given.
By the way if u want fp gestures,one key then y just use stock rom??
