Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Custom ROM's are specially tailored to the device, so you will need to find a developer who has the same one. However, I couldn't find anything of that make and model.
At any rate, create an account, so you can post in the rest of the site. Particularly, you will want to the [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly thread of the > General discussion > Questions and Answers forum. Be sure the share the same specs of the device as you did here, so they know what they are working with.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

Hello.
I would try the above links first. You may find others with the same tablet. Otherwise (and this has been done for other devices, even popular ones), you may need to give a device (same make and model) to an interested developer (as they don't like to build blindly).
Not a whole lot of options, but that is something you can tease out (if there are more) on the General Q&A forum.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Glad you are interested in helping out!
The > Android Development and Hacking > Android Apps and Games forum contains many apps, and a few questions regarding apps. But really, (it seems) most app questions will go through to the > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum (the one I linked before - sort of a catch-all question forum for rare devices and not particular to a device at all).
With regards to the tablet, one with similar specs (read....chipset) can help a developer out as a starting point, but the ROM will still need to be customized for that device to avoid bootloop.
Time to release you out into the world! The Purpose of XDA Assist is to point those who need assistance in the right direction, not to be a helpdesk (which I am fine with providing a little extra information, like the above paragraph ). With the forums mentioned in this thread in hand, you should be off to a great start with XDA. Take care.

[Completed] AOSP based rom compiling for specific devices

I am basically a noob when it comes to building/compiling. I basically want to know if it would be possible to create an OS for my phone based on AOSP without too much work.
Total noob idea; maybe combining a zip from a custom rom/ normal firmware, and the AOSP code?

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and since you forgot to mention which device you have in mind, I can't point you towards a device-specific area. That said, there are some thread such as the one at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2483143 that night be good starting places for your quest, as well as several articles in our "XDA University" at http://xda-university.com such as the guide at http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/porting-aosp-roms-using-source-code. Not all data there is always up-to-date but it covers a wealth of information in one convenient place.
Good luck!

Hello again.
There is no forum specifically for the Samsung Galaxy XCover 2 GT S 7710 at this time but if the links provided earlier are not sufficient, you may want to ask your question with all relevant details in the friendly general Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. Since your device is relatively uncommon, please be patient and give the experts plenty of time to respond.
Once again, good luck!
