Any tutorial for making custom rom for desire? - Desire General

Hi,
I want to try and make custom rom for my desire.
I have rooted my desire already.
Would like to make roms to match my own needs.
Any tutorial for making it?
Also what tools do I need as well.
Currently I have a Macbook Pro to use, can use VMWare Fusion whenever need to use Windows/Linux.
Thanks
Kevin

No Guide at all?
Thanks

Theres a sticky called chef central. hard to miss

Been there and look at them , but then doesnt have a kitchen for Desire though.
But I found 2 website about create a rom for android.
I have download a few roms for desire and having a look at them currently.
I hope I would be able to figure out to make roms for desire soon.
If you have update information, please tell me.
Thanks

HD ROM?

Dutty stated that he may not be doing any more ROMs and I just wanted some questions asked by people who could be able to help me. I might take a stab at making my own ROM. I seen the video tutorial posted around here, but ..
Are there any more tutorials on how to start?
When I start, Im confused by which ROM to use, can I use any ROM to start ? (IE Duttys) or do I have to use a special ROM?
Whats all this im seeing about HD ROMS?
Thanks for your time.
i don't cook so i can't says whats best to start with...sorry
but HD is from the touch HD rom
i hope this helps

duttys roms are locked, u cant recook them, aztor roms are not locked.
the best is to use original htc roms as base rom, and them combine it with latest sys build and drivers etc.
How do i know wich rom is locked?
the best ask the rom shef and probably they will answer u
regarding HD, the rom shefs try to combine and port new HD drivers and apps etc.

2 probably simple questions?

Hi, I just wanted to know as someone who is really new to this, what RRU/RUU (sp?) is and also whether the Hero MoDaCo ROM uses HTC Sense UI?
I think I may have asked the Sense question in another topic but just wanted to condense both questions into one thread.
Thanks

RUU- Rom Update Utility, it,,s an exe program that allows up to flash the rom by just connecting ur phone to ur pc and running the program. usually all the official roms comes in the format RUU
Yes, Modaco roms uses HTC sense.

Root & Rom

Hello guys i have htc desire by telus. which is still stuck with 2.1 and very slow and laggy. and dont wana wait for telus 2.2 cuz it doesnt sounds promising.
so how easy is it to root and put rom leedroid on my desire? what are the chances to bricked the phone?
please share your taughts and help me and if u guys could provide link for easier root and put rom that be great. thanks
anyone? please help
please read the stickies in the adroid development forum
i did but there is soo many im new. so i dont know which to use. and i youtube the video its all in different language. so its confusing
The guides are made for new people. If you dont understand them I'd lay off rooting your desire as you could brick it
Hey buddy. I was in a similar situation as you, on the edge of rooting.
I also have a Telus-branded HTC Desire. The method I used was : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=763558 with this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044 for reference.
Its fairly painless. I have been hoping back and for between AuraSense, SenseHD, Miui, and Leedroid.
Found if you don't have a dire need for Camera, SenseHD is the way to go.
Otherwise, I've been enjoying the latest Leedroid.
If you are having problems following the guides, it may not be a good idea to root. However rooting the Desire is very easy (at least the GSM version).
I used unrEVOked to root, just download from their site, switch USB Debugging mode on, plug in and start the app ... it takes care of the rest.
I have used DeVillain, LeeDroid, and OpenDesire. LeeDroid is very good. I have personally stuck with Cyanogenmod. Very easy to install and the fastest benchmarks of the lot. Only problem .. no Sense .. but LauncherProPlus can do most of the sense stuff.
Happy hacking.

[Q] Root guide for Mac OS?

HI all, this is a very noob question.
I have tried searching the forum but either I am confused by the mixed answers or perhaps I am really really lost.
My android version is 2.3.5 (the latest official firmware for HTC desire Hd), have been trying to find a tutorial guide to root my phone so that I can use custom rom.
In the midst of my search, I read that advanced hack kit can do the job but you will need a windows-based platform?
Even so, I am seeing some conflicted comments and hence am not sure which should I take. Could someone points it out to me?
Then, unfortunately I am have mac os platform that is available to me and hence are there any guides for mac users?
Many thanks in advance!

How to update android ?

Hello guys, im newbie in roms and all the phones stuff so please dont criticise I have a HTC Desire Z with Android 2.2. My question here is how to update it to newer? 4.4.4 would be awesome, i want newest i can. I found some posts on couple of forums about this but every was like "format, flash, update, boooom done". Can anyone tell me how to do it from begining? I mean how to format it the way it should be, how to flash, what do i need etc.
Also i found this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374927
Is it good? I know i shouldnt ask what rom should i pick, im just asking is it good to use on this phone.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
The second post in this thread will help you understand the initial process
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348266
You need to use gfree to exploit and root if you want radio s-off which is the only way you should root this phone. And be sure to read through all those links to understand fully first, I know it may be overwhelming but it is important.
As for best ROM, we don't make suggestions in xda but the third and forth post will link you to every to available. Gingerbread runs the best overall but there are many ICS and jb ROMs that work almost as well (some will say better) and KitKat has come a long way where many will find that it suffice for daily use.
You'll have to try a few, make backups, try a few more to see what works best for you
If you get stuck somewhere just ask in that thread and many are there to jump in and help
Best of luck!
Kay so i downgraded my phone with fre3vo and rebooted, everything was fine. Now the guide says i should head back to official rooting guide on wiki but the problem is i cant root it now. At downgrading it worked with no problems but now i just cant do it. Can anyone help please?
You will have to be more specific
Okay i did it and it works now i just misunderstood few things there
