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

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) .

Hi
I have made some modifications to an MTD ROM posted in dev section.
I would like to test it on an emulator before I flash it to my actual device.
I installed Eclipse (with ADT plugin) and downloaded some Google APIs (2.1,2.2,2.3.3) but I haven't seen our device in the list...
So I just launched a virtual device based on 2.3.3 but I don't think it is heping me much, it's just a general 2.3.3 android device.
My questions are : (and I did read quite a lot, maybe haven't looked in the right places)
1. what target do I need to download and add to AVD to emulate SGH-T959V ?
2. How do I get it to function with recovery ? and actually flash kernel etc.
3. Do I need specific actions to emulate MTD over our phone ? same as in real phone ?
4. Will I be able to virtually flash a ROM on an emulator ?
links to constructive/informative sources are also appreciated.
Thanks a lot !

I'll rephrase, how do you guys test your ROMs prior to flashing them, or you don't...

I have been trying to do that for a while. What I've discovered is that you can build emulater version from source, or use a nandroid backup.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I was messing around with this last night, but couldn't get a nandroid backup image to load properly in the android emulator. I was following these threads:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591924
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906161
I'll get back to you if I find anything else that works.
I couldn't get it tot work either, but I thought it was just me.

I test by flashing..and logcat the fooker...and fix my errors that way of course an emulator would be a lot better

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 they cannot but they should be easily portable since android and Ubuntu for android use the same kernel.

So, if some kind soul ports it (We are actually talking about Ubuntu phone, but not Ubuntu for android right?)
would it pop up on the android development forum?
Ubuntu
How big is this Ubuntu and more important could a sort of dual boot setup be created like on a PCM so the android os could be primary and perhaps Ubuntu could be on a partition on the flash card.

Would you like to try Android 4.3?
Here's how to run Android 4.3 on your PC using VirtualBox:

I just updated this guide.
If anyone get kernel panic is because you need to enable intel-vt in your bios configuration.

Hi.
I did, Intel VT is enabled, but I still get the kernel panic error... any guesses ?
Hi,
Unfortunately I don't know why it's working perfectly for some people and not working for other one.
I imagine could be a VirtualBox issue.
You can try either doing similar procedure using WMware or ask for support here:

Orientation...portrait?
I have successfully installed 4.3 on VirtualBox again using Ubuntu host. Is there a way to change the orientation to portrait permanantly so that the VM looks and operates like a phone? Short of finding a way to set my expensive monitor on it's side I can't really find a way.
