So, there are so many people making really good roms now. even i want to try now
So how do you start cooking roms? or start making themes?
What software is needed? Do you need eclipse? Do you just need a file manager and an unzip utility?
Has anyone created a tutorial on cooking a rom?
I have some skill with android, and am pretty good and flashing and stuff, I wouldnt mind adding root a build that I like or taking something else out. Maybe add an app to the image, or add an option to my recovery image.
Where do I start?
plz help
Start by posting in the correct forum would be a good one.

This is not a real MOD its a Zip-Mod !
Nothing u did need a new thread sry but anyone who can see your "ROM" can see how to Remove SystemApps.
Please delete this. Useless Thread.
So, all you've done is remove apps? Everyone can do that anywhere now we have S-Off.

This is all I do with every rom before I flash it. All you have done is delete some apps. What have you modded?

Like 20 other Roms here in the "DEVELOPMENT" section.. ZipMods-Modder are teh real developer -.-
/vote for delete
no need to be harsh on the guy. Just because someone has the savvy to flash a rom doesnt mean they have the knowledge or confidence to remove apps. Hes sharing his version of the auraxtsense rom for those type of people and they may appreciate it.

Well Catus i`m people like them.I grew into this forum slowly...took the easiest way.Last few days i`ve felt bold enough to put S-OFF on my Desire and used ADB to change my splash screen.
The reason i did that was because of all the helpful posts in this forum.
I am totally impressed by the willingness of the experts on this forum to lend a hand to the newbies. You Sir do not impress me at all.

You berate yourself incorrectly because it looks to me you're not people like that. You've investigated and searched and researched. Zip-Roms like this compound the issue of people not bothering to do any of that.
I'm more than happy to help people. When they help themselves first. I'm sick and tired of people who can't use the search function, and asking what OJ means, or whether you can stick the Sense camera on an AOSP Rom. Not reading posts properly and thinking S-OFF is some magical system that does anything exept full R/W access. People like THAT is who that comment was directed at.

Ok Cactus i`ve you had expanded your oneliner i would have understood your grouse better.I`ve never asked for help in this forum..i`ve read and learned.
why do people argue over nothing?
if no one uses the rom then the thread will die by itself.
useless comments and 'vote to delete' do nothing.
so RELAX
I don't see peterfeter has any bad intention, he gave full credit to Neophyte.x360 and he merely shares the things he did.
While he's not a real developer who knows a lot of things, I've checked the forum rule and apparently he did nothing wrong to violate any of the rule. So I don't understand why he deserves such bashing.
If you don't like it, then ignore it, simple as that
Thx. Good job. Dont mind bored guys

Why are people bashing PeterFerter? He only has good intention to share...
He is not asking for Donation, for thanx, or for recognition
Everyone has to start from somewhere.
This qualifies as a mod, anything that's different to the original is isn't it?
Will you prepare this mod for newer version of ATS ?

bashing this guy sucks
i agree with others on this thread. dont bash this guy. what actual harm has he done. he's not made any untrue claims and if anything he's inspired untechnical people like myself to have a little delve beneath the surface. I may have a look at this rom myself and do a MOD.
This has inspired me to try some editing myself. But without luck, so if you do a zipmod, you just add or remove files from data/app/ and system/app/ ? Is that all? Been trying but I get an error everytime I try saying that a file is missing. Are there a list of files + directories that i verifys with before installing? Been searching the web for answers but I only found guides on how to make a ROM from the start.

I know its a little bit heavy, but to mod ROMs I always use
[KITCHEN][OCT. 3 '10] HTC Android Kitchen, v0.100 [Linux / Mac / Windows]
The kitchen will unzip the ROM you want to mod, you change/remove/add what you want. You can sign new apk files, zipalign the apps and create a flashable ROM.
EDIT:
And thanks to peterfeter to publish his ROM. Ignore the jealous ignorant people posting bad things in your thread. You have done a good job and it is good that you share it. I plan to release my mods soon as well. It will be a mod of an existing ROM with some special apps and settings for Japan/Softbank users.
Thanks alot BeeGee! I will try it out!
Okay, I know this is an APPLICATIONS' thread, but since the ROMs' thread is "dead" for months, I thought to post it here...
Any decent (available) chef, to cook me one rom EXACTLY as I want it?
Kind regards and let me know, fellas.
Andy.
Actually the HD2 thread is not dead at all. For example I release a kitchen where you can build a rom exactly how you like it and customise it your self.
If you have never built a rom before have a look at my thread for beginner chiefs and then you should move on to my advanced version. It is really easy simply click on the apps you dont want remove them, click start, it builds the rom for you then you flash!!
The links to my threads are below

This belongs in Q&A not general, for future reference. I have reported this to the MODS, so they can move it.
if you're planning to flash jellybean then you need the boostrap from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19355021 , with that installed, go to dev section of the forum and d/l a custom rom and flash following steps in the op , remember always to make a backup of your current rom

There are only two roms based on JB. And both have a guide to install.
Any links for some good n stable roms are appriciated.. Kindly help

So, you're not "lazy", just apprehensive. There's nothing wrong with that. However, what we do here on xda isn't to spend time explaining all the pros vs/ cons to all ROMs available, nor is it anyone's assertion as to what the "best" ROM may be -as this is all very subjective to the individual. There's a hefty ROM list of threads in the development section, so it's your responsibility to read over each one (that may strike you as interesting) and make your own assessment to which you may choose.
Also, each ROM thread by our dev team has explicitly detailed installation instructions, so there should be no reason as to why you would run into trouble -so long as you read, re-read, and fully understand what you're getting yourself into.
Also, there's a handy little help thread that I started for any and all questions, problems, etc. So, if you happen to run into anything, feel free to post there. Myself and a few others maintain that thread, so you should expect an answer without the need of posting a new thread each time you have a problem.
My question is about modifying roms that people upload here on xda. so i start to learn a bit more about this on how to make rom,modify and so on.i really have a wish to upload my own rom and share to all people.but i still dont know much about that ofc,i need to learn a lot.i do know now how to modify rom which is simple ofc.but first i wanna stay at modifying and 1 day i hope i will post my rom.all roms here on xda can be downloaded for free and i must say big thanks to developers. so,if i download a rom,can i upload back to xda with my modifications? do i need any permissions before i post moded rom?

Well, it would be better if you ask the developer of the original rom first.
