[Q] how do you port a rom

i know this is the uber development place, but i have searched and googled, basic question, i see the i9000 roms, how, in simple terms, do you have a bot "build" the source for the infuse 4G, are their any instructions or a site that i can read up on this?
Thanks

No problemo dman. I think I may be getting some extra time on my hands and may be able to give back a little. Last time I tried a bunch of crap came up, but I think I'll be good this time.

I know what roms we have. Some devs that can put together roms, will not touch kernels and vice versa.

The developer of that rom has moved to another device. While there was a theme thread, it was closed by request of the developer. You can take a look through the theme thread to see if there is anything useful there.:

Other than that, if you're looking for a Gingerbread rom with good theme support, I'd try Aeon or Emancipation.

No sir no themes for ztr...and like the great scott said....lots other ROMs to choice from

The best rom is the one YOU choose to be the best after giving them all a chance.

Also agreed...however trying them all does not mean going into the development threads & complaining about things that don't work... every rom has some issues that are either being worked on or are things that can't be fixed & you just have to deal with in order to have 98% better then the stock version of your phone that Samsung has abandoned...so read read read & then read some more about the rom you're installing so you know what to expect & don't get people upset with questions that shouldn't be asked in the dev threads

Delete the rom zip file from your sd card for the one you don't want. Go to the development section for the new rom you want.

You gata hope it's not. Someone with this lack of knowledge shouldn't be flashing roms.

Okay for the sake of argument let's say your serious about this, let's call the first ROM X and the second one Y. If your running ROM X simply use something like ES File manager and delete ROM Y. If you want to run ROM Y then flash it and delete ROM X. Real simple oh and by the way read more just my two cents
