Hi all, i'm new to this forum so i will first give an introduction of my Android experience.
I have been developing apps and android for the ADP1 (g1) phone, these are mainly for gaining access to telephony data and displaying it for Telecom engineers. I would like to port this code into the Magic/Sapphire, though (please correct me if i am wrong) there is no support for building the android code for a magic and it appears you cannot flash system.img onto the magic.
I have been looking at the ROM's that are about and was wondering how you managed to make them?
If there is already a thread for this can someone point me in the right direction as i have been unable to find it, otherwise can someone post a guide on how to approach this. Thanks.
Liam
Hi,
I'm following the Nexus S Android Development for 6 month now and Rom and Kernel flashing is a a real addiction for me (I flash everyday).
And, since the beginning i want to create my own Rom.
At first, I want to build one from another one (Cyanogen or another).
So, If someone can give me tutos, tools, tips and advices, I'll be very grateful.
Thanks to everybody, waiting for your help.

Hey you know i find myself sharing this exact interest as you. Let's collaborate and learn this Create A ROM Project
Notice to see the motivation to create a new ROM.
How good are your Linux skills? If you want to do it all properly I suggest you try and build your own AOSP ROM first (from the Adroid Open Source Project).
This is the place where Google publishes the Android source code files. Actually the site is fantatic and guides you through the entire process, but it does require you to understand the basics of the maketools in Linux.
Once you've been able to compile the source, you'll actually have a perfect stock ROM version of Android. Then, you can start doing advanced things to it. Add a different Kernel, add apps, install tweak scripts etc etc etc, the options are endless.

Good luck and have fun, because it is

I'm looking for an boot animation created from a .GIF that I have for an Android TV Box. Please Private message me if you can help I'm willing to Donate your cause. Also looking for a Custom Rom Develop for an amlogic based device.
Hi All,
I've been reading these forums for sometime now. Until now I've only been here as a user of roms not as a developer.
However, on my current project I had the requirement to get an android distribution running on a beaglebone black embedded board. As there are a lot of experienced rom developers here I would like to ask my question here.
Currently I'm successfully booting the kernel. It also seems to get to the actual homescreen. However, it seems that I'm currently in a bootloop a when I reach the homescreen. I get thrown back to the boot animation.
My guess is that there is some kind of memory issue here. More specifically the vmalloc part.
I get the following error in the dmesg when the homescreen crashes:
binder: 1804: binder_alloc_buf failed to map pages in userspace, no vma
Can anyone confirm that this is good explanation and tell me how I should adres this issue? Or maybe provide me with some other tips?
I tried to increase the vmalloc size but I'm not really able to do so. if I enter the vmalloc=512M command on the uboot it doesn't really change the size...
Thanks
Hi there,
You must read some guides and tutorials for that. Starting from:
1. This guide about how to port different ROMs to your device.
2. This guide about how to port AOSP ROMs to your device.
3. This guide about how to port a ROM to your device.
4. This guide about how to create a new ROM for your device.
5. This guide for ROM development beginners.
6. This guide in xda university for building your own android rom.
7. This guide in xda university for porting an aosp rom from source.
There are also instructions on the cyanogen mod wiki site about it.
A good place to ask if you have questions about it or need help, is Chef Central - Android. Many devs are watching this forum and can help quickly.
Good luck
I would like to develop custom roms and recoveries for the Logic X3. Unfortunately, this device is quite unknown so I can't find any drivers for it
It is currently on Android KitKat 4.4.2, and with its limited internal memory I am limited to the number of apps I can install. I have tried EVERY app/mod this forum and Google has to offer. None works.
I really would like to begin by making a custom recovery for it. Attached is a screenshot of some of its features.
Anyone who can help with this is greatly appreciated.
Hello there
You will find a lot of information in the XDA University pages, especially this one: Getting Started: Building Android From Source
There are lots of resources throughout the XDA forum, for instance this one: [UltimateGUIDE][How-to]Create your Own Custom ROM an easy way|Android Secrets -_- and this one [ GUIDE ] How to Prepare Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Trusty Tahr to Compile Android ROMs
Good luck
