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.

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 ?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
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!
i am just wondering if anybody knows of a guide on how to create a custom rom or any rom on android ..

If you want to start out modifying shipped ROMs or someone else's custom ROM, you can use my Android kitchen (see link in my signature). You can also use it to modify AOSP ROMs.
Thanks

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.
Moved to General.

though, maybe someone can create one... i hope...
Ya Even im good at android and have some little bit of knowledge.I too want to learn how the android roms are created and stuff like that.So any dev reading this.Please post a thread about rom cooking.
Hi there guys. I wanted to start building my own froyo based rom from scratch. I found a good guide for it too but i require a stock deodexed rom for it. I searched dharams rom collection and a number of sites as well but all of them have dead or broken links. So please can anyone help me out finding the stock deodexed rom or help me with a deodexing tutorial. I am new to all this and know only basic layman programming. Thanks in advance and thanks to all of those who have kept our device still alive by developing roms for it.
You shouldn't post this in the development section. Anyway, search for how to deodex a ROM and do it yourself since you're the one making the ROM.

use this to deodex..

First of, hello all!
As I am about to start learning how to make a custom ROM I want to get all the useful information before I start. I intend to develop for Xperia E. So I am asking you guys to post xda threads that helped you, tools that you use, useful advices and information that you think is very important before entering such a big field.
Thanks in advance, that536

You need to properly debloat it.
Install a performance mod (pure performance is what i use in my rom but u could also install fly-on mod instead. they re both good
Look for mods all over the internet
Try to make ur idea unique
U ll get there. Dont be impatient. u ll learn this stuff in weeks . it s no that hard
Hi Amby, thanks for contributing and I hope more people will do the same. It would be cool if one day there would be a sticky with info for begginer/intermediate/advanced devs
