Coming from the galaxy s section I'm used to the stock roms being in the general section. Why are the stock and development roms in the same section? Surely the general section would be better for stock roms as the galaxy s and s2 sections are.

Rom itself a development, it is Samsung development. So there is nothing wrong if rom consider under development
No surely it would be better for them to be in Development so they're with the custom roms. It's actually more organized, all roms in one place, but that's just me.
surely it would be better to have the stock roms in one thread.

Hi everyone, I haven't really been keeping up with roms lately and was wondering if this phone is getting cm9 or 10 or is cm7 the last update?
Thanks !

From the looks of it, no. The problem is the kernel sources were released to late. No CM dev really has our phone so therfore hard for us to get it.
There is of course unofficial CM9, heck even CM10 Roms out there if you want to but no official yet.
To be honest I really doubt we will get them because Incredible S is on it's way to be a legacy phone prolly after new years. So unless we get support before that I would not get my hops up, but even so I doubt it.
ZaySk is apparently porting cm9 for us.

Hi Mark,
What would be so innovative about Viper ROM? Just in general? and why promotion of this ROM is focused so much on sense?

Best tweaks in an sense ROM
iirc, J4n87 (team venom boss) is the man behind the leedroid tweaks for sense 3.6 as well.
Its a sense rom, so its focus is sense You can change nearly everything, its like the AOKP of sense roms

Hey Mark,
Out of curiosity,
What is the actual difference when you say built from source and Built from RUU? Is it that you are building everything from scratch, when you say that ROM has been built from source?

Built from source generally refers to AOSP ROMs, meaning they're stock android like the nexus devices. With a source build you can include fixes and features and stuff. Some ROMs are ports of source builds for other devices are so are less tailored to our device and have a few bugs.
If something is built from an ruu it is sense based. HTC release their ROMs via ruus with sense in them, but technically that build them from source and add their framework and stuff. Everything is source based at one point, just a matter of how long ago and what has been added on top. But generally 'built from source' means it was built for the specific device with sources from aosp, aokp, cm or whatever.
That's at a very basic level

If I gave you two zip files, would you be able to tell which is from source and which is a port?

Nope, if those two roms are aosp, but i can assure you that sense rom can't be built from source

I wonder if it would be possible to build one's own "skin" like HTC Sense, Touchwiz, etc. It would be a lot of work, but interesting if done properly.

My question was asked to understand wheter or not ROM's from source are better by nature. But I'm not so sure anymore. I'm beginning to think that good ports may have better quality than ROM's from source.
Hi I m coming from Motorola Atrix forum to here cause i ve changed my phone to N7000 I wonder what is the difference between Original n7000 developement and n7000 developement? There was no another original developement topic in Atrix's

Good question!
The original android dev is about android as it was intended by google. (Aosp).
The other one is mainly for samsung based roms (with touchwiz and all that nonsense ;#)

Thats right, multiview is a feature developed by samsung and is part of touchwiz, both those things arent available in AOSP (Android Open Source Project) roms.
If you prefer a samsung/touchwiz based rom then I reckon Ultimate is alright.
I myself however have am more comfortable with an AOSP rom, currently and for the last year or so ive been using Paranoid Android, which can be found in the Original Android Development section of the forum.
It has alot of nice features such as the Pie menu, DPI Mods (which is awesome on the big screen of the G-Note).
None of the touchwiz features are available on that rom, I prefer it that way.
I suggest you make a backup and just try both : )
Have fun, and good luck!

I think the Android dev forum are for those who take stock ROMs from the carrier of the device and modify it to their liking. Original Development probably has devs taking the source vanilla Android and creating a ROM out of it.
Ahh. Thanks for that. I kept finding myself going back and forth to each forum. I couldn't find an explanation anywhere.
Android development is for roms based on stock - trickdroid, arhd etc.
original is for kernal development, aosp, aokp etc.

You must be using the xda mobile app. The difference is clearly explained in a sticky on the original development forum.
(the sticky is there precisely so we don't have to have a lot of threads like this but I digress)
In the full web browser experience, you will see that thread listed at the top above all the others. In the mobile app you have to click on the "stickies" tab to expose these. Just fyi..

Also I believe the original dev forum are using alpha and beta builds kernels and Roms, which most were projects that are work in progress I.e. the cyanogenmod, some hasn't received updates for long time, they may have been abandoned or obsolete.
On the other hand, the android development forum are housed with released roms, kernels and mods.
If this description is incorrect, please do correct me.

Flash a few different ROM and make your own choice.
Personally I think Viper ROM cannot be beaten, but respect to all the devs on here for their efforts.

idk how many times it has to be said. BEST ROM THREADS ARE NOT ALLOWED! Respect to all the devs making great ROMs for the One.
Best ROM threads are not allowed. Closed. Moving this to Q&A to avoid cluttering up General.
