Thank you

Are you a developer? No offense, but it's very complicated, you'd need a lot of experience.

Wouldn't consider my self one. Don't want to build one from scratch. There are downloadable ones on xda just want to know how to intigrate it
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
To be honest, you have a lot of reading to do. Firstly, aroma can be very tricky. You'll also need to know how to build/edit a ROM in order to execute it properly. Search Google for some guides.

Have searched and don't find what I want. Is there an easy way
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
No, there isn't an easy way. If you don't know Android code you won't be able to.
What are you trying to accomplish? In what way do you want to change Cleanrom?
Sent from my Evita
to make it more customizeable. mabe add nova launcher and a couple of other apps. is tthere any way of removing the aroma that comes standard with cleanrom
You don't need an aroma installer to add those apps though, you can just install them after the ROM boots, or you can add them to the zip before you flash.

Unless you intend on flashing this ROM again and again, or sharing your work, I don't see a point in even integrating the apps into the ROM.
Just install the apps. Backup the apps with Titanium if you think you will be flashing the ROM frequently.
I think you are making this a lot more complicated than need be.
If the goal is to tinker around, and learn how to develop, than use the XDA site search and start reading. There are several guides on how to cook ROM, setup AROMA, etc.
Get that alot. I am a beginner and will readily take as much advice as I can get.

Hi, guy. I'm new to android, inspire 4g is my first smartphone. I spent a tone of time learn how to root, radio s-off, sim-unlock my device. I used the "hackerize-ace" package V9. I'm currently using 【rom】 Android Revolution 4G 3.2， 【bootloader】 ace-hacker SHIP-S-Off(something like this), 【clockworkmod recovery】 3.0.0.6 (something like this) 【software version】2.2.1 . I'm having a hard time trying to install a new theme for my phone, can anyone help me out? provide me with more detailed steps? Thank you very much. If you need more information in order to help, please let me know.

What kind of trouble are you having? What is happening when you try to flash the theme? I am assuming you have flashed the rom then a full reboot then flash the theme.
ummm, I flash the rom, then reboot device, then use rom manage to install(in recovery). But, the theme did not appear the same as post. And some places, like the phonebook/contacts list looked mess up.
For your contact list, sounds like a font provlem. Your best bet would be to ask the theme dev.

Search, read, try, learn. The info is literally everywhere on this subject. Why would we need to rewrite what is already available to you?

Indeed as Pirate said. Not 1 person here just magically knew what to do. Most of this stuff is trial & error. The reading is to get you going in the right direction for what your trying to accomplish. Although you with find some step by step guides. Try different things and see the outcomes. One thing of advice. Always keep backups of what your editing and track what your doing in case you need to reproduce something such as an error your trying to fix. Anyways good luck!
I should restate my question. I understand that stuff is there, and I have found it, but I'm wondering what would be easy to make for a first time Rom. Like should I start with sense, or should I do stock. And wich version of android should I try out first

That depends. Are you wanting to modify a stock rom or compile CM/AOKP and edit that for your phone?

Start with modifying what your phone is running. Learn how to decompile and compile apks, smali edit, and understand the XML layout and structure of android. Unless you have a device that is supported by aosp you won't be building anything for stock android. At least until there is source and proprietary blobs available for your current device.

SEMPERSLICK 1.2.1Thanks to
Scott (for the boot animation from cleanROM 7.0)
all the developers at the cm 10.1 Q&A forum (For helping me to understand what was wrong with my edits and my phone.)
And full credit to the cyanogenmod team
This ROM is based on Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 and is completely stable. the rom itself is just a repack of cyanogenmod with xsposed framework and an aosp toolbox.
I have removed most of the CM apps including the trebucket launcher (which I have replaced with nova launcher). If you want some of these apps let me know and I will try and put them back in.
do what you want with this ROM. there are not a lot of big edits so you can edit the way you want.
If ROM fails
check your HBOOT. (this ROM needs at least HBOOT 2.14)
check your recovery. this will work with TWRP and should work with CWM.
If none of these aply, post it on the thread and I will try my best to get back to you
If you have sugestions please let me know. I am mostly free on weekends and some week nights.

Hi
I am sorry but the ROM I guess can only be downloaded on a computer. tryed with my device and it didn't download corectly. so download it on your computer and then mount your sd card on your computer and move the file. then flash in recovery
I just need to ask, how safe is this to flash? I'm only asking because in a conversation I had with you a couple of days ago you didn't know some of the really basic things to do with Android.
Also, this is basically a zipdev right? You've just removed some apps and renamed the ROM? Are there any real changes or optimizations from the base?
Sent from my Evita
It worked ok when I flashed it and I did look at the build.prop file and remove some cm stuff in there. Otherwise every thing should be ok. The Rom also has google apps built in

Ok. You probably need to remove the Google apps that are built in though. There's a reason they're not included in any other aosp ROM, Google basically issued a Cease & Desist Order against CyanogenMod (sued them) because they're not licensed to distribute the apps. Whether this applies to smaller devs I'm not sure, but you'll notice that no aosp ROMs have Google apps built in, they're always a separate package. Just don't want to see you get in any trouble, better to be safe than sorry I think.

Zipdeving is altering a ROM by extracting the zip, adding/removing apps, and re-zipping it to be packaged as a new ROM, without any actual development done in the process.

Thankyou I will get on that right away. Had no idea just thought it would be easier to intigrate them

I also think because you've repackaged a cm ROM you need to acknowledge that fact in your OP and give full credit to the CyanogenMod team.

Will do that. Anyone please do not flash the Rom just yet. I will try later today to do the edits

It will be aesthetically identical to any CyanogenMod ROM.
Sent from my Evita
almost done needs to upload and it can be slow on my conection. just a reminder there will not be any google apps on this rom,so you will need to download a flashable zip of them. just do a search on xda for gapps 4.2.2. this will only take 4.2.2 gapps so dont try 4.1.2 or any 4.3 version. if you do, just dont say I didnt warn you when it fails.

I have replaced the launcher but yes it will look the same as a CM ROM
I have the note 2 with hellybean running on it. It's also cwm and cyanogen.
Now...I know so little about all if this. Keep that in mind as you read.
I went to install paranoid android a while back and somehow in the process I wound up with what appeared to be cyanogen as the OS on my phone. I didn't keep it long because I wanted to try out paranoid android.
I can't seem to get back to that.
So cyanogen mod, that's not a ROM? Is it firmware? A kernel?
Can I just get rid of hellybean and just run cyanogen? Because for the two minutes I was running it, looked pretty sweet.
Please jump on in and give me the scoop. Perry

I'm somewhat a noob to custom ROMs, and looking for a bit of information before I decide to flash a new one. I have a Verizon Droid MAXX Developer Edition (XT1080) with the current KitKat 4.4 installed. I'm looking to try the nightly CM11 out. I have already unlocked the bootloader, its not rooted just yet though.
In another forum thread located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2654816
A user posted a link to http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=moto_msm8960dt (3 downloads, I'm not sure which one to choose for my device)
I'm wanting to know if this build would work on my phone before I flash and possibly mess something up, and also does Verizon work okay on this build. Is there anything else I should know before flashing a ROM (I'm somewhat tech savvy, so the process seems pretty straight forward, but any advice is appreciated)
I would have posted the question in that thread but I didn't want to break any rules, which says to Q/A here.

Obviously you need to have a custom recovery installed and get root. All three of those builds are for our phone. They are "nightlies" that get updated, well, nightly. I ran the 2/19 build for a little while and it worked pretty well. GPS was the only thing that didn't work and I think there is a work around for that. Active notifications and touchless controls are not part of cm.
Sent from my XT1080 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
I'm not worried about GPS or the Motorola controls.
Do you recommend a good recovery to flash? Also I've seen people posting problems when rooting this phone with 4.4 installed.
Any reason why you reverted back? Didn't like it?

I use TWRP. No problems rooting the Dev edition on 4.4 the problems are all with the consumer edition. I've never been a big CM fan plus I like having a working GPS, and I just didn't feel like going through the steps to get it working
CM seems to be good for my first custom ROM, but for future references do you recommend another ROM? I've seen that PACMAN ROM posted a bunch, but it looks pretty buggy.

CM 11 is pretty much it for our phones right now. You can flash the firmware for the Moto X and try those ROMs though.
One last thing as far as rooting goes. Do I use rock my moto to root. Also if I should decide to keep my stock ROM are there any advantages to rooting other than apps like titanium backup etc?

So with xposed you can customize a current ROM without having to flash to cyanogenmod? I like the stock ROM but I'd like to be able to change certain designs (example: change the way my notification bar looks. Maybe battery icons and change menus within settings. Etc ) Just trying to really see the benefit of flashing another ROM if what I'm wanting to do can be done through a 3rd party program.

When I first installed CM11 it looked almost exactly like my stock set up using the Google launcher and xposed. The only advantage CM provides that I can see is the ability to tweak the kernel settings, if you are into that sort of thing.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Xparent BlueTapatalk 2
I appreciate all the help so far. I think I will try xposed out and see what I can tweak as far as display settings.
I'm assuming no custom recovery is required for this, only rooting. I like some aspects of cyanogenmod but for this also being my work phone, I don't want to risk messing up my network settings etc.
When you root, can you still update your stock OS? Or do you need to unroot before each update?
