Ok, Ive falshed many roms and have got to know many things about roms, kernels etc.
I'm still confused with one thing though....
What's AOKP & AOSP??
Ive seen many roms with that written and a few with Not AOSP Written on them.
Anyone Help me out here?
Thanks!
AOSP - Android Open Source Project.
AOKP - Android Open Kang Project.
An AOSP ROM is a ROM based on the Android Open Source Project from Google. An AOKP ROM is a modified AOSP with various tweaks and customization.
Kang is a word that is somtimes misconstrued to mean stealing other's work and to some it has a negative connotation. In reality though, it's starting with another's work and building on it to (hopefully) make it better. It makes sense that most devs appreciate being mentioned when their work is in play within a particular rom so that's why we often see a list of mentions when various tweaks/mods/etc are utilized.

AOKP Android Open Kang Project
AOSP Android Open Source Project
Just do a quick google/forum search for more info.
Thanks soumya_digi & zeeshansohail
But for AOKP is just mean the http://aokp.co/ project or all project based on a AOSP?
I mean, if I take a CM and do some change, will be a AOKP?
No right?
So AOSP are all the rom based on purecode, AOKP is just the aokp.co project.
CM is one of the AOSP
AOKP are just the rom maked by team kang, maybe also based on AOSP project..
I'm confusing.
Hello
I came from black berry so little confused on everything. Can somebody help me understand some of this.

They're branches of ROM development. Different individuals and teams work on their own ROMs and distribute them regularly. They each have their own features, looks and performance tweaks that they think are best.
As a quick start, "AOSP" is the Android Open Source Project. Google maintains the open source Android code, and individuals can pull from it and build their own ROMs off of that. So when someone says their ROM is "AOSP based", they're saying that they pulled the source from Google then modified it.
And like-wise with CM10/AOKP they provide their own source code.
CM10 = Cyanogenmod team. A very popular ROM. They do have their own ROM but also provide their own source code for those wanting to start with an already modified base. As an example CM10 based ROMs usually come with certain additional features like the CM kernel, profiles, etc.
AOKP = Android Open Kang Project. As the name suggests it is also the same idea. A source code provided by a developer of a Popular ROM (AOKP) for other users to use. Also comes with features not included in the base AOSP ROM
If any of that is wrong someone will correct me I'm sure
Hello I have found tutorials for building CNA from source but it is for other device's and since this will be my first source build I don't know what I'm supposed to change
Can someone post instructions or tell me what I have to change to build CNA from source, I will happily do it and I do have Linux and Dev expierince so I will be releasing the build to the public.
Theres a thanks for everyone who reply's plus i will give you equal credit as me if I get the rom to work and release it.
Thank you,
Matyhew

What exactly is CNA ? If you are trying to build a pure android source I would look at the source code alquezs cyanogenmod port as that is the basic open source that came with the phones level of android (2.3 gingerbread) but as far as source and building is concerned I would look at your tut and when it gives you any reference to the original target device, swap it out for marvel. These things tend to be renamable to pretty much anything. If you link to the tut I can have a look over it for you and see if I can help

Codename android is a rom like AOKP or Cyanogenmod, it's a Jelly Bean only rom though I belive,
here is a thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900448
and the GitHub
https://github.com/CNA
this is the tutorial I mentioned
http://www.crackflasher.com/threads/33-Guide-How-to-build-Android-roms-from-source-for-XT912-CM10-AOKP-AOSP-CNA
I know it's pretty vague but thats the best I can find
thanks again

Well, that does look like a cyanogenmod aokp aosp fusion with some new stuff.
As far as the guide is concerned just swap out the names of the downloaded files with the ones you are using, like pull the repo from your required github and not the one in the guide. Most of the commands for compiling will be the same as the compiler is for jellybean. As far as editing this github source code to make it run on the marvel I'm not so sure. You can look at the current cm10 roms here for some insight on how they made them work but this is where I get lost buddy

AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project.

I dont know what the last "A" in AOSPA is. Havent heard that term much. Probably has to do with Paranoid Android?

AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project. AOSPA is Paranoid Android, a custom rom.

Probably a stupid question, but where does the PA ROM come from?
Do they grab the Cyanogen source code and meld it into their own?
Or are they grabbing straight from Google Android source code and making it their own, then borrowing some features from other ROM's (like all ROM devs do)?

We build from aosp. Most features are our own, we try not to borrow things from other ROMs at all.
