Well I am a rookie in case of ROM development but I have ported 2 Roms till date and am now customizing my stock ROM....................................So my question is that is there any way to test a ROM without flashing it perhaps by somehow flashing it in VirtualBox or anywhere else..........any Idea guys

Hey peeps.
I'm wanting to get my hands dirty and start cooking my own ROM for the HTC Tattoo, which has been rooted and now has a custom recovery.
I would like some pointers on a tutorial on cooking custom ROMs, as it's kinda new to me, but I'm a fast learner (I learn more visually than reading on paper).
By cooking custom ROM, I mean either taking a stock ROM and gutting the crap out of it (and making it barebones), or compiling from source. For starters, I'd think I'll take the easy approach and go with taking the stock ROM from an offical RUU and modding it a bit (I've looked at a tutorial and think I can adapt it for Tattoo).
I'd like tutorials of both methods, as there might be a time where I want to compile my own Android 2.1 ROM for the tattoo.
I am using CoburnOS Professional (my own distro based on Debian 5.0 "Lenny") for my development cooker computer.
If you can help me with this, we'll have a new ROM in the works!
Cheers,
Coburn.
Hi experts,
I am currently using LG P500 with stock rom & kernel. I have never rooted rom before this. I have read somewhere from useful thread from this forum like here but am still not so sure and wondering if any problem will effect to the stock rom if I would like to flash kernel on my phone.
Most of the time I depend on my mobile phone such as alarm clock so just worried anything happen to the rom will cause me troublesome. ^^; I might flash rom in future but not now. So am interested about flashing kernel since people said that flash kernel will save battery life as well as overclock cpu. It would be glad if someone could explain to me or sharing link with great info.
Thanks a lot.
regards

can i ask which software you are using?
you have to be careful when flashing kernels as some kernels may not be compatible with your specific software.
I would search for specific kernels for your software and if you have root, then make sure you have a backup kernel for the one you are about to flash and if any problems arise you can flash it back.
I use Kernel Update Utility 0.9 to flash different kernels to my device so maybe you can look into that once you have done your research
Hi all i have an lg fathom and i've flashed a few custom roms to it. They were good but there were certain elements between them that i wanted the others to have. Could someone run me through the process of cooking a rom from scratch? I've been trying for a while but with no success
I am new to this forum, but have been doing some research about different custom ROMs. I was wondering if anyone has come across a custom Android Oreo that will run on the edge. I downloaded the OTA update of Oreo 8, but being new to flashing and tweaking of ROMs, I am a little nervous about playing with something that I am not sure will work. Any hekpo r information would be great. Thanks.
is there anyone to make a custom rom for this device?
many people here can test every build that comes up
