[Q] Is it safe to cook atypical roms ?

Hello !
I searched on Google and I didn't find anything concluent so I came to XDA to ask you this.
I downloaded the HTC Sensation kitchen to cook roms. Before I read all the tutorials about it, I just want to know if it is safe to atypical AOSP roms based on Cyanogen with framereswork.apk from Samsung or LG roms.
It may sound silly but I want to make new roms with new UIs because I don't really like the Sense UI , never did...
So what do you think about that ?
EDIT: My principal fear is to brick my sensation... but I can always revert this no ? Via Fastboot USB or some other software no ? ( Like what i did when i bricked my old X10 )

You won't brick it by swapping the framework-res.apk if you do. It might just not boot up.

Okay so I'd still be able to boot into bootloader and recovery and restore my last working rom ?
In fact I would like to know if it's possible to use another framework-res.apk with every AOSP ROM like Cyanogenmod or Virtuous Quattro ( cuz I'm pretty sure My sensation won't boot if I put a Touchwizz based framework-res.apk into a Sense Rom but I don't know if it would work in AOSP Roms ).
Voila ! thanks for your help.

[Q] cm10 galaxy note - ringtones not working !

Hi everyone
I've recently installed cm10 nightly 20121017 on my galaxy note ( using CM kernel, hydracore was causing black screen on boot .. )
Here's my main issue : ringtones are absolutely not working ! system tones & music are working like a charm, except I can't get a proper ringer to hear my incoming calls ..
Already missed a dozen call this far within two days ..
How to solve this problem please ? Do I have to backup everything if I wanna upgrade my version to a new one ?
Thanks

Having same problem with my Galaxy S GT-I9000. The latest CM10 nightlies have all the same problem.
Someone has a clue of how to fix this?

My solution was to install AOKP ROM Milestone n°1

solution ?
Make permission for your custom ringtone/alarm same as for systems.
See in system/media/... make R/W
See picture for sample

Wow, I have the same exact problem, and I have no idea how long it has been going on, and now it's starting to bug me. Anyone have a solution? And will this need to be submitted as a bug to the CM team?

Questions about MIUI v4.1

Hello Guys at xda
i am a beginner at Roms and need your help
I was browsing forums here and just found this one... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103783&page=15
(Its MIUI Jellybean HTC Explorer BUILD #3 aka MIUI v4.1 3.1.11 Build 3)
I read the whole forum to gain knowledge abut the rom,many questions were cleared but there are still so plz anyone help me
Firstly, i am just moving from my rooted stock to this one ...but a question stucked in my mind, am i missing something like some kernel things??
do i need some change in my phone before flashing this ? ( question came as it is based on Ngoralph's MiniCM10 which needs nAa-jb kernel and i don't know what that is.
Secondly about a lock screen bug, do i need to disable that on my very first boot ? as it doesn't work.
Please answer me ASAP :good:

The kernel is included in the Rom...
I'm the same ROM u can change to some other MIUI lockscreen.

[Q] A stable rom

Hello there,
I recently rooted my sister's Explorer because she kept complaining about low memory and lag. I rooted it but I guess I need to install a custom ROM on it as stock one is utter crap.
Because I am new to explorer forums can someone help me out with a stable rom which doesn't need a lot of tweaks and everything works as it should.
I had Wildfire S some time back so I am aware of ROMs and stuff but still as this is my sisters phone I'd like if someone can guide me what to do after I am done rooting. (How to install the rom and what partitions of sd card are required.)
Thank you!
EDIT: I shortlisted a ROM called "Exderoid Sense 5 Build#3.5"... What are your views on it? Any bugs? Everyday stuff!

Hi, brother, it would be better if you wouldn't ask for suggestions as it may lead to bickering and unwanted arguments between people.
As for the ROM.. I guess nothing is better than trying it out itself ! I guess the bugs will be mentioned in the ROM's OP .. and further bug reports in the thread of the ROM..
As for the ROM .. for (almost) all ROMs based on Sense 4.1 you need to create a 1 GB sd-ext partition on the Sdcard .. ext2 or ext3 is preferred..
Apart from this ROMs .. there are many other ROMs in this forum which are also pretty darn good. check the bugs out and try to install them , try and decide for yourself

No rom comparison threads please.
Try them yourself, there is no objective way to compare roms.
