There is a section in the main forum for Android Chef's. There are lots of guide's about how to setup your system and what programs are needed. That is the best way to start.

Search. Someone posted up a tutorial on how to do exactly what you're asking.
Then again, I doubt many people will want to use a ROM made by someone who doesn't think to search on his own in the first place. Probably not the sign of a thorough developer.

Stericson started a thread (use the search function to search for threads started by him) about how to sign files and ROMs... I would start there and you'll probably find information on building ROMs as well.
I would also check the Google developer forums (don't know the URL) for information on building a ROM for Android. You'll need to download and install several items to your computer to create the appropriate environment to build.

If your post has a question mark in it, you most likely need to post your thread in the Q&A Section
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
granted, you did not use any question marks, but had you used correct punctuation, there would be.
Consider the parts of a rom you want to change. THEN look for answers or tutorials regarding those individual pieces. There is no one quide for creating a rom, but the tons of threads with tutorials for individual components that make up a rom will ultimately guide you to everything you could want to do.
i can't remember the exact name for it right now, but there was a thread about this a while back about starting to mess around with making roms. also there is a thread about unpacking and re-packing boot images which will probably some system understanding as well. I personally do not know how to go about making a rom from scratch, but i think they may have something about how to compile the source here or here. its worth a read anyways i guess.
people on here are dicks and hate to see someone wanting to learn something. like really hate it, with a passion.
being insulted from the guy that released a rom and didn't even know that it had to be signed (tested how)
Moved. Enough flaming.
It's like saying how do I build my computer from scratch. What do you really want? A how to guide that somehow already knows which type of ROM you want to cook, what you are planning to do with it, and teaches you how to use linux, java, and android all at the same time?

All wrong sectionry aside, you didn't find a thread or a guide because there isn't one.. It's something you'll kind of figure out when you're ready. It sounds like I'm being a total elitist d*ck, but I'm not. Knowing how to create a rom from scratch is a culmination of knowledge and research over a long time. If someone posted a step-by-step guide it still wouldn't tell you what you need to know.
thanks for the ACTUAL helpful comments guys i'll take a browse thru forums bit more for the stuff i wanna change\edit learn

n00b going to flash his first ROM...which ROM kicks the most @ss? thx

Hi all,
I have my N1 since this week and would like to flash a custom rom...any tips on which ROM to choose?
Since I'm just getting into this (coming from a Tytn2/Kaiser) I don't want to cook my own ROM just yet.
Thanks and kind regards,
Jochen
Well I do really think it comes down to personal preferences.
I've tried CM (since the betas) and MCR back and forth, both are excellent ROMs so I can recommend both of them.
I know people are happy with Enomther's as well so it's probably good
I'd recommend you look through the changelogs or specifications for the ROM's and decide that way or just try them all It's as easy as eating pie to swap between ROMs if you use nandroid to store them
First tip would be to post in the correct section of the forum.
If you want you could test drive all the ROMS and then settle on one and install all your apps.
Once you unlock/root you can change bits and pieces whenever you want anyway.

Sorry! The development thread did seem appropriate at first, but of course in here is a better place for n00b stuff.

Yeah I know, was just looking for a good place to start the fun. Eventually I guess I will cook my own rom anyway.

I'd go with the no theme version, but its up to you.

I'm on the previous version of this. Dont think I'll upgrade as I've got too many misc changes added in.
Here are a few links that will lead you to some ROMs you can try out You just have to pick what works best for you... Good Luck and Enjoy!!!!

I am also new to this rooting thing. Can you provide the link for what instructions did you follow to root your Nexus 1?
I came from an HD2 device, and this is pretty new to me.
i'll appreciate any help.

hey man, thanks for your response.........
i did my research of course and had a little idea now on how to do the rooting, but just wanted to see if there are different instructions on rooting a device.
since the OP said he have just rooted it, might as well ask him to point me to the right direction.
i believed, i have also said that i will appreciate that info.
coming from a totally different device, i hope you understand why am i asking? since a thread has been opened already.

look around the development thread, and use google. from those, i was able to unlock, root, and install enom's ROM w/o too much trouble. using the 'spare parts' app in enom's ROM, you can uninstall things you couldn't before, like amazon.mp3, for which i have no use.
i don't know about proxy wifi settings, never had to mess with it. that seems like a browser condition, not a ROM condition tho. could fix thru router tho, if you're at home. MAC address proxy assignment would be your best bet, i would think.
only rooted apps i use are adfree, andexplorer, and metamorph, i think.
but, i am able to push whatever i want

Have a look in our dedicated app development forums. There are choices for which language you use, which platform you develop on etc.. Spend a bit of time reading what's gone on in there (a lot of questions similar to your own, actually) and see if you find something that you like the sound of...
