can you explain much more? what do you want to do?
I know with the android kitchen you can port a rom from a phone to another..
or do you want to compile os from source?

I want to understand the android plataform. I would like to compile from source to learn how the devices drivers interact with the system and maybe can help to solve the camera problem. There are many devices getting out with android os, has to be a way to configure/build from source files the full device support.

^^has a lot of good information
help me! please
Yes, I searched the internet a lot on how to cook ROM's but I couldn't find crap... Is there a tutorial somewhere on how to get started on this?
Theres no real tutorial for it....its really you know how to work things through experience,
There are a lot of useful threads on xda, but you have to find them and piece them together.
LFS
What about compiling the information into a HowTo format similar to the first Linux From Scratch book?
Possibly the Gentoo ARM handbook may be of help as well.

you need C++. Kernel is already ok. Yuo have to compile libcamera.so and libcameraservice.so.
what's C++ ...?

I don't know "coding by heart" or better, i don't know what it means(not a native speaker...).
I know some c Coding an Linux Module development.
Furthermore Java and the typical web technologies.
And a lot of linux administration and kernel configuration...

Well then you should be able to code android Read any guide?
No.
But Android apps and most framework parts are written in java, so the language isn't a problem.
Any furhter information is in the android api documentation, so i don't think this is a major problem.

Well if that's the case maybe you can make a build from winxusers git? It is the port that is the problem. He hasn't changed every I9300 to I9305 in the rom. Wich is a problem
I will lay down the details when I get home from the cinema
If we're all beginners anyway I'll throw my name in the hat. I have no idea exactly what to do but I am a skilled C and java programmer (more so java than C) and I have experience with the Android build system. If someone can guide me I'm sure I can provide assistance.
Thanks man! I have very little knowledge in porting roms but this should help! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
I'll check out the git when i'm @home from work and will try to build it.
I think i should start making a backup of my phone

Haha good idea
Still cloning cm10.1 sources, on my server @100mbit/s... then getting the compressed tar.bz2(thats faster than getting it directly via git to the local machine)

Tell me when it is done! We should be able to get it starting without anything working at least!
What about you? Checking out source and building?
What about using an instant messenger for short communication(google talk, jabber, whatever...) ?

[Q] Rom building help

Hi.
I was wondering if it is possible to build a complete, working rom for my phone from the source code that is supplied by the manufacturer? Or do I need to do more coding? I have experience in c programming but I am new to android programming.
Thanks

To build a full working ROM from the phone seems highly impossible due to the lack of tools u would need in order to build the ROM ... Most people have stated c and java are needed for ROM building ... There a couple of other thread and few searches ucan do that will give u in more details

I would go for Donut , and when you hacked the "bios !!! " you are almost there.
so your steps to do:
hack IPL bootloader.
hack sbl1.
hack sbl2.
hack sbl3.
hack UEFI.
make drivers for the whole OS.
build a rom.
boot android.
have fun and please post here again when you have it booted

Unfortunately at this time, installing another OS on the phones other than what is already there. I'm a little confused with the ATIV 3 device. If you're speaking about the ATIV Tab 3 and not the ATIV S Windows Phone, then this is the wrong forum location.
If you can reply back with some clarification, I'll be glad to help.
Yes, im sorry i cannot quote i m on my phone, but as you said is the ativ tab 3
here you can see it
This one comes with w8 preinstalled but i ... hate ... windows 8. And i wanted an alternative to this software on a tablet that has a really good hardware and a lot of memory and hdd to spare, iknow that dual booting is possible but apparently only with androidx86, thank you for your answers
OK, that's a moderately-cool looking product, but there's a reason we hadn't heard about it here:
This is the Windows Phone 8 forum. That is not a phone!
The general Win8 forum is over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-8-rt/general
