To build a custom ROM extract the source code from the ics.tar.gz file (I would recommend using a program like 7-Zip). Once you have done that take the System folder that should be in the source code you extracted, create a new folder called MyROM, and put the source code for the System folder in the MyROM folder. Next extract the boot.img file for your ROM by extracting the boot partition of your stock ROM, and place it in the MyROM folder. Third, take a working META-INF folder that contains the standard Android update-binary, and a working updater script for your device, and place the META-INF folder in the MyROM folder. Once you have the System folder, Boot.img file, and META-INF folder in the MyROM folder, use 7-Zip to create a zip file containing the MyROM folder. After this flash the .zip file you created in recovery and you should have a custom. First off, for building a custom kernel if you extract the kernel source from the kernel.tar.gz file using 7-Zip, there should be a read-me or other type of documentation describing how to compile the kernel source code you downloaded. If there isn't any documentation I recommend taking a look at this guide on building your first kernel. While these are just a general outline of what you have to do, if you have any questions feel free to ask .

I should clarify that the source does not always include the /system folder sometimes companies will provide this and other times they won't. The other way to get the /system folder is to use adb and pull the system folder with a command similar to:
Code:
adb pull /system
Also this is just one example of a procedure that could be used to build a custom ROM from the stock ROM that originally ships with the phone. The procedure for building Cyanogenmod for example or another AOSP based ROM would be very different.

Getting error about incompatible operating system when recompressing dat so I tried on windows and got the same do I have to install the java or the phyton to a certain directory or the auto tool to a certain directory it extracted fine thanks in advance for the feedback
Can someone lend a hand.... Program works great. After removing a couple apps, one from 'app' another from 'priv-app', I made a zip file with 7zip and tried flashing but it fails. Is 7zip okay to make a zip file? was I not supposed to remove a 'priv-app' ? I can't find any solid guides on editing a MM rom. thanks in advance.
i succesfully unpack .dat files and repack .dat files (without edit anything) using this tool .
then i replace the repack .dat file to the rom and zip it and flash it .
but the problem is, when i flash i get error 7 system partition has unexpected contents after ota update . any solution ?
