Hey all, I've been flashing Roms for ages but I'd love to start making Roms. I've been watching tutorials. but none have been of much use to me. I can use command prompt etc, and i have done a bit of programming. So, could you guys link me to some useful tutorials or even teach me yourself? Thanks guys!
BTW, my ultimate aim would be a fully functioning ICS Rom!

Well, first i took a Galaxy Nexus ICS rom, which someone kindly ported already, and I fixed up GPS and MMS (I think).
But just about an hour ago, i took IceColdSandwich, and I am going to see if i can do any good with it
Just felt the need to chime in. Thanks for the very useful links. This thread is why I love coming to XDA.

So this is a standard-froyo without all the extra crap (Like HTC puts in there, sense and such)?

OK I agree, We can look others device thread, like HERO at the first time it launch, they work together to develops it, and we can work on Legend together and write all improvement here and submit the fix file here for all cheft and users, no secret tweak or step or fix. Open it for everyone. Remember we are a minor user of Android here, and if we are not work together, the development will go slow.
As I follow in GENE and OPAL forum, they do like it, and now, there are a lot of ROM there. the target is to make compatible FROYO for Legend without bug, and I say "YES WE CAN"

Great stuff, I wish I could help test, but I have not rooted just yet.
I hope some of the other devs out there who have rooted will be able to help.
Will keep my fingers crossed!
If this has been asked more than once, I apologize!
I got this phone couple days ago and I stumbled upon this forum to notice many different themes. I was wondering how you change it from the original Captivate theme to the themes the makers made here. Thanks
Are you rooted? Do you have a certain rom? Because you cant get a theme from developers until your rooted and have a Rom that the theme is for?

Here's an easy way to see if your rooted, go into your apps and see if you have an app called superuser. If you do, then you are rooted but if not then you are not. As for the rom I'm not sure as to what rom you have I'm not sure.

Read this guide over, it will explain how to install a custom rom, which is basically ( in very simplified terms) just a new very advanced theme that replaces the old stock one that comes with the phone. That link can tell you everything you need to know. Just be REALLY careful! the first time I tried to install a new rom my phone got messed up and i couldn't use it for three days. But anyways, have fun and welcome to the site!

I suggest Phoenix as your ROM. Its very simple to use and has good speed and good battery life. It's the first rom I had .
Here's the link http://www.phoenix-hq.com/ to the site with the downloads from everything from the Rom to Themes for the Rom to wallpapers.
If you need anything else feel free to PM me.
Looks like the thread for the carbon ROM for the Verizon lg g2 was deleted..
Luckily I saved a copy in the cloud.. I'll post a link but keep in mind this is just a copy of what was out there already. I have had nothing to do with the dev of this ROM so please don't give me any credit for it.
Here is a link to my box folder with the ROM and gaps I believe the build is the 1-7
https://app.box.com/s/7u6oh6gpvpqg54lnjxcb
I also put a 'copy of a flashible lg remote in there...
Thanks to @t3build here is the 1-16 build https://app.box.com/s/7u6oh6gpvpqg54lnjxcb
Here is a 1/24 build. This should boot, but make sure you back up your old rom just in case. If it doesn't boot, then turn your phone off my holding the power button. Then hold both the power and volume buttons down until the LG Logo flashes, then let go and press both again until you see the factory reset screen. Once you are there, press the power button 3 times and it will take you to your recovery. Cheers

I probably owe you guys more of a response than I left you with.
I am a college student in my last year of classes, and the workload is pretty heavy even at the start of the semester.
I messaged the mod asking for the thread to be deleted because I didn't want to cause Carbon any bad names because my build wasn't booting.
Long story short I will still be supporting Carbon for the vs980 until the official builds come out. Be looking for that in the next couple of days, possibly even tonight if I can find time.
Thanks for your understanding.

you just hook your phone to the mac and copy the stock rom to your phones SDCARD and install it from recovery ... this simple stuff
