Stock ROMs are already built. They don't need building.

...and what will be "custom" about it? That's the real question.
If you don't know what you want to do to the ROM, there's nothing to.learn

Download & install Ubuntu, the android source code, and compile. Then make your changes.

Evaluate your skills, if any, you might be better at Kernel development than Rom cooking.
At the end of the day, simply put, if you want to create a custom ROM, no whatever what base you use, straight up source or someone else's, you have a lot of reading to do, A lot of friends to make and definitely not post a thread about how to even start.

[Q] Super noob here: don't kill me please, but help!

Hi, I recently betrayed the Apple clan and converted to Android.
I have an Infuse 4G and currently under going developing my device.
however
I have rooted it using super one click using a video I found in the development section of this forum. However, it did not continue on to show me how to install kernel and ROM.
Which brings me to my next issue: according to a fellow android user, I have to install a kernel....whatever that is. Can anyone provide a trustworthy link to install kernel from?
And also after that I apparently have to install ROM, but the choices for this are endless?
Sorry. I REALLY suck at this kind of stuff.
Also, are these ( FroYo, ICS, GB), ROM or kernel?...

rom for nexus S

Hi guys. I need to flash a custom rom on my nexus S and I need your advice.
I need speed and stability and good kernel.
For Recovery I'm going for TWRP-crespo
As far as rom goes I thinking to flash TeamEOS3-29, but my doubt is the kernel.
I would like your opinion/suggestion on the rom and suggestion on the kernel.
Thanks a lot to all!

[Q] What ROM are u using now? and give me ur review please :)

Hi GUYS, i am going to get Nexus 5 this month.
And i gonna change it to CUSTOM ROM when it arrives, (Since this ROM is PURE, nothing special).
I went to XDA android development thread and original 1 to check some ROM.
OMG, there's so many many ROM. Not like my Old Galaxy W.
I am really confusing and curious, WHICH 1 is stable enough?
So, I would like to know, which ROM are u using now, and ur experience on that ROM. :silly:
-I HAVE NO INTENTION TO COMPARING ROM, all i want is to know ur review-
and NO FANBOYS ROM please. :highfive: THanks you~
Well i havnt tried custom roms yet.. but i am satisfied for now with stock ROM + Gravity Box(gives a hell lot of customizations )
Hi,
Currently on stock 442+Gravity Box+Franco kernel. Works perfectly for me.
Custom ROM Im waitin' for is AOKP. Will flash once it has the customizations which I have now with Gravity...
Stick to a stock rom. Most features in aosp roms are available via xposed modules such as gravity box.
I dont think these threads are useful.

Oh and to stay on topic im using CM11 right now with Linaro Kernel r30, I can play DT2 Ultra High GFX via .xml mod and their are no stutters, not even kidding, seriously...
Im just updating to the new nightly realese like 2-3 hours ago, :3
I am not a fan of ROMS.
There is always some issue with them. They optimize the heck out the software but the take away is issues.
I prefer stock.
You honestly cant beat stock + xposed + a custom kernel (i use francos)

Stock 4.4.2 ± Xposed + Gravity Box + Franco Kernel + Dalvik optimizations + Sound mod.
On a very different note, I totally find this thread reminding me of the new ways scams work nowadays. Plus a loophole and scammed find new ways. Is this the new way for people to ask about beat threads now?
To OP: Get your phone first. You might not root at all. And if you want to try ROMs then try one by one and see what is stable in your opinion and what makes you happy. As far as reviews of each ROMs, you will find those in their respective threads from users who have installed it.
Read and search.

Cataclysm is awesome. Its stock feel entirely with minor extras. I've been on it since release. Only ROM I really enjoy. Combined with some Franco action.

Doubtful as that is a TouchWiz based ROM to my knowledge. At least by the looks and the size of the file!

I don't know if we're able to port jellybean roms. Do they have a color os for kitkat? It looks pretty cool and it's always nice to test new stuff.

Looks like MIUI based ROM. Haven't seen anything like this for N5. Definitely not TouchWiz.

too many bugs on the oppo firmware (for my liking), compared to aosp/cm/omni

You want to port the stock ROM, CM, AOSP and MIUI to the Nexus 5 even though it already has it?
No idea what you're asking.

MIUI v6 is still in its infancy stages and is still being worked on. When its ready, it'll be available.
As what others have said, we have a difficult time understanding what you want. Usually on XDA, you can't request someone to port a particular ROM, especially when those ROMs are already existent on the N5.

If you know of one that is up to update let know were it is.

They're not outdated though? Cm nightlies are being released every night. A port is when one particular subject doesn't exist but exists for another device (or whatever it may be) to have it for your device.
A port isn't needed because it exists already.
Cm nightlies are released every night.
No one uses a bare bone aosp build. All roms use aosp as a base regardless.
Miui is relatively new and is still in beta.

I think he's trying to say that he found a rom that he likes that is being built for a different device. He needs a guide to help him take that rom and port it to the nexus 5 so he can use it.
His example is MIUIv6, it's not developed specifically for this device so he'd like to try to port it using an updated 'How-to' porting guide.
