hello as I have seen that our dear razr i have a few roms and no stable cm because of the x86 processor (it has a lot of potential is not a weak instrument quite the contrary, just need people interested). I would love to know if you could teach me the basics on specific development of our device so that I can help build more like a miui roms, paranoid, slim, and many other pac why even far inferior to our own devices. until who knows the porting firefox or ubuntu I thank

Having been burned in the past by lack of drivers & resources for different devices, I started to wonder about the future of our Nook tablets.
I don't know anything about software and/or Android development so have no idea what is required to develop these ROMs.
Since the stock ROM runs on ICS and current development is on JB, are the drivers compatible?
Also, what about Android 4.3 (Key Lime Pie) and Android 5.0? When it is release by Google, would lack of stock ROMs be a hindrance to aftermarket development?
What exactly is needed by developers to create a (mostly) stable ROM for our Nook HD tablets & Android devices in general?
I hope someone with more knowledge than I possess can answer some of these queries.
Thanks.
IMO, my HD+ is pretty dang stable right now. I think the fact that the stock ROM is ICS-based helps a lot. Going forward, who knows? Hard to speculate, but with a solid kernel and that handles the devices capabilities, i think we should be good for a while.
I definitely appreciate the roms that SDBags and every other developer has made, but I was hoping for more options available, specifically in AOSP Roms. I love the transformer lineup because it is super useful as a cheaper high performing school laptop for note taking and has a stylus for taking notes with. But honestly, I rarely have cared for asus's stock software compared to AOSP, and AOSP definitely will give me much speedier performance, much more customization and much more recent updates overall.
Can any developers let me know why there haven't been more available AOSP Roms lately, or maybe its a problem with the tf701t hardware making it harder to Rom for? Or maybe not many people are buying this tablet? I just want an idea of what I would be in for if I buy this tablet soon.
Also, has any of the Tf700 tablet developers been asked to help develop for this tablet? (Just an Idea)
This is not a bashing on any developers who are making this Rom. Especially with SDBags. I have used his CROMI Roms on the TF300t all the time and they are AWESOME!!! I was just curious why the tablet hasn't gotten much attention in the ROMs section from hearing all sorts of good things from this tablet

Not many devs bought the device, we only have cm11 source available, I don't have time to make loads of roms from source, although I might have a surprise for you soon.
It's about time other people started learning how to build from source don't you think? How about you give it a go?

I totally understand where you are going at. You are a great developer and I am not asking specifically you, just mainly other developers that haven't shown their awesome work for this tablet. And, do you know anywhere good to get a tutorial how to build a rom for this device?
Is building a rom for this device much harder than building a rom for another device, like the tf300t? Does the Tegra 4 chip really hard to work with when creating the ROMS for this tablet? Is there a way I can test the rom onto an emulator build of the tf701 on the computer so then I wont risk my tablet being bricked due to my ignorance? sorry for all the questions.
Hello developers.Dont want to be annyoing but I'm new to this devicee and i kinda like it and tried lots and lots of roms for it, and you know that android L/Lollipop is coming soon out, and i want to ask if anyone is gonna like port it to our device because i know some really good developers like the major tonyp and other ones.So if yes i would be really really hyped for it like many other lol
i think that for the reply we have to wait CM12(?)sources comes out,but as i understood in the past our phone is supporting kitkat with a base that starts from ics sources,so we must wait and maybe isn't possible to port, but also for me it will be interesting if the devs can port a rom with lollipop.By the way i was thinking that we are running also some old version of the gapps to make it work with our device due to missing neon support(like youtube or google search for ex.),so don't know if it's possible

We had to wait 3 months for CM11 M1 to come out after KitKat was released, and knowing that Lollipop is quite a large overhaul and that it fully uses the ART runtime, we can expect a larger delay for CM12 M1. And even when it comes out, it will be almost featureless. As far as I know, Lollipop sources haven't been yet released, so we'll have to wait and see.
Second, yes, we are running on old ICS sources, so unless the 3.x kernel becomes super stable so we can use newer drivers, if they are available for our device, we'll have a bad time.
Third, this is a subforum for Development Discussion, so this kind of thread is more welcomed in the General Discussion section or even Q&A.
Keep on modding Other than that, KitKat development has been quite amazing in the last few months, and considering that the O2X is a device released in 2011, we are more than been blessed regarding this device. Ludnica, brate, ludnica.
Jes jes hahaha. Well whatever happens we will maybe be able to get something of it.I will try my best.I dont rly know much about coding but i know some stuff and i am learning every day more and more so yeah.I hope if we all combine our inteligence we will get something.
Oh and the sources should be out on i think November 5th
Testing Platform available
I like the idea of L for P990. I recently bought a new phone. That spares my P990 for testing full time as I have another phone for regular use. Please let me should you like to test anything, I will happily share the results. The least I can do to aid further development.
If you didnt know yesterday the FXP team announced that it would begin lollipop nightlies for 12 Xperia devices, in which our SP isnt included. While reading the list with the 12 devices i realised that devices that are WAY less powerfull like the E3 will get support, and our device which in my expierience seems to run lollipop with ease doesnt get support.
This really frustrated me, as i dont understand why would they do that. Does anyone have an explanation ???
Btw happy holidays everyone
Different phones = different problems. Some phones are more easy to make ports. And other fact is what the XSP developer community is not too big, we don't have much developers working on our phone. More popular phones have more developers, bringing ports more quickly. We have some devs working to bring Lollipop to us, already have a almost fully working build of 5.0 for LBL, which is more harder to port. Unlocked BL only maybe is coming soon. What rest for us is only wait. If someone can't wait is easy: just learn how to develop a ROM and build it for yourself.

Newer devices first.Even XZ is not listed,so there is no way SP could make up in the list.
Hi.
I have question most to the developers that work on our LG L90
Are you going to develop the custom rom based on Android M on LG L90 as I don't really thing that lg's gonna release it official for L90.
And if so, Is it possible to make it for now from currently avaible Android M Preview from Nexus devices?
It could possible bring some knowlege and idea that could help in the final Android M experiance/development bug fixes, etc
That's how I'm thinking, but I'm not developer so...
That's why I'm asking
Well L90 has CM support and CM will certainly update to Android M, so I think we'll get it eventually, but the d415 still has a bunch of problems with CM

There is no really stable version of any customROM for L90.
CM11 which is quite old is still having a few problems
CM12(.1) is quite buggy. Doesn't really bother for a daily use but there are option they shouldn't be available and random reboots...
Well LG android is not perfect but it's stable. So you can imagine how much time it take's to develop such a bug free ROM.
So you're telling me there is Android M preview when there is still unfinished (at least for me) Android L?
the worst thing which could happen for l90 development is loss of quarx
the future is not bright
@OP: We have to wait for Google to release the source for M and then we build roms, unless someone here is a hacking god and can port M right now . @olinojephanko I have watched this forum go from meh to booming so its just warming up I feel

So have I. Quarx did great job by every meaning, but he was almost (almost I say) the only one contributing. After his disappearance, the development started for real, when we started to have avability to choose roms that suit us, not only CM.
Now we've got a few really skilled devs (and I am not afraid to compare CaptivateKing's skills to Quarxs') and a few minor devs, not that much participating but still. And also we've got community. I see no reason why L90 development's future would be colored in black
@wojtek267
I hope so too.
