There is a nandroid dump floating around and there are already custom roms out for other phones.
What would I have to do to convert the nandroid dump or a rom for another phone to our phones?
Could I use a 4.0 kernel in a 4.1 rom?
Also, if I flash a bad rom, I can still get into recovery and restore a good one, right?
Im new to this, but I would really like to contribute to this and maybe get a project started.
If anyone with some more experience could help answer any of my questions that would be great.

What section do you think I should post this in?
I want to make a rom for the Incredible 2, so I thought this would be the best place to post.
Well this is a question, so the Q&A section.

Port the dump to our phone. Install the port if you can. Flash one of aeros ICS kernals one top of that. And if it boots, you have started a project. If not......... it was worth a try.
Could brick your phone, but if you wanted to start somthing this would be my best guess.

Development is for roms, not talk or asking to make one.
I'll move this to general
if you have never made a stock rom before, let alone ported a rom...and if you arent familiar w/ modding the ramdisk and hacking up jars/apks and what libs do what......
then dont bother
(this isnt me being a jerk, just pointing out you have to walk before you can run a marathon)

Don't really want to put him on that path yet, lol. But thanks. I wanted the cm7.2 that is in the development section, but alas, it is for gsm. Flashed it and got stuck at the HTC screen. Then found out that there were more carriers, so did more research and found the cm7 cdma port. But like me, he has family, and needs his camera. So I put him on a stock rom with root and the wonderful world of Go Launcher, lol. He will be good while they figure out the bluetooth and camera issues. Just hate he has to miss out on the CM7 coolness.
does anyone have a stable, good battery life rom? i've been looking for one but i couldn't find one. i dont want to flash the rom. i just need a rom that i can install through CMW. thanks

I'm telling you... Imfamous 2.7.1 is the way to go. the masters behind that come out with updates very very frequently and are always on the spot with them. & kernel is damn good. i highly suggest.

....ahh here we go again with "that" question...the one you will neva eva eva get a straight answer to....my advice?.....READ, READ, READ, read, read, and read some more and when you feel comfortable make a choice...try it out...if you are not happy...try another...and so on and so forth...
I believe they are all great ROMs but there are some YOUR phone is gonna like more than others...that's the best answer I could give you. Luck homie.
That to me is an unaswerable question. Its like asking what undys should I wear today to your buddies. Not really a question anyone but yourself could answer lol.
Ok im teasing don't hate me lol. I guess what I mean to say is what ever rom feels that meets your needs.
I have flashed over 5 roms in the last 3 weeks and I finally found one that fits me. DS Rev.7.
I suggest to flash a few and see which one is your favorite. Or just keep flashing til you burn something out lol.
Hope this helps

I so agree with you bro.... the devs are just doing all of this for free. Which ever any of us use is just icing on their cake. To them it just means that their knowledge has paid off.
Too many choices out there to make one single decision. Carry 1-2-3-8 roms in ur card. Choose a diff one everyday of the week. And one day it will make its mark that the one your using will meet all your needs. Until then........ PLEASE!!!!! Read instructions and follow devs install guides. Their there for a reason. Don't be one of the many that post treads about how they didn't research and ended up with a paperweight.
Thats my .02¢
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I don't mean to sound politically incorrect here. But I don't think devs do this for us at all. If I had the talents to dev my main reason for developing would be my own personal gains in being able to improve the experience with that shiny new device I've been wanting. Then after I would upload my work for anyone else if they wish. Hopefully cash in some sweet donations if my work is THAT good. But I will never ever believe that devs do it "for us". All devs are hackers. And hackers all hack for the same reasons. Personal gain and attention. Just my 2 cents.

Hey guys, I'm super newbie to all this. I rooted my phone with an optimized ics rom about a month ago. It was a T-Mobile from however. It made my better life awesome. But it was still touch wiz etc. Then jb came out right after.
Is there a dev who is making a jb from for telus that is optimized for battery life and no touchwiz?
Can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks a million.

All you can do is wait and see. There's an alpha cm10 out for the skyrocket and ported to our phone...but still has bugs and no camera...as far as tw jb there's n/a and just so you know this thread is for development there's already a job topic on the general section.

You have two choices flash with CWM or odin. Mostly all the roms in here are setup to be flashed with clockwork. Please read the stickies in development and wickys to get yourself better acquainted with your phone and flashing...... Questions to the masses may bring up more opinions than fact.

I have it all downloaded and waiting to be flashed just don't want any issues. I'm new to this phone but not her to flashing. Any issues that would make this a bad idea? Is it a asop ROM?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
CM is a customized AOSP. so yes, more or less AOSP.
It's a preview, so it's going to have issues. whether or not it's a bad idea depends on your expectations. all you can do is give it a try.
I just installed it this afternoon. Love it! Haven't had much time to play around with it and figure out what doesn't work, but from what I can tell all of the daily functions of the ROM work. Again, it's still an alpha, so it's up to you to decide if it works well enough
Read the op of the thread. I'm not normally I guy who makes a comment like this. But he mentions the bugs right in the first or second post.
Why create a whole new thread?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Actually I got the ROM from this other website and the g apps they had it linked there so I never saw the thread. Where is the tread here?

Umm, it's one of the only four ROM's listed in the Development Forum.

Alright guys I've been using the Jellybam rom on my tmobile sensation n I'm convinced is the best JB rom I've tried. My question is this, how can we go about getting this ROM ported or developed 2 our tmobile T889 note2? Developer is iGio90 on xda forums.
I'm not rooted yet, but in due time. Once I am rooted I would love 2 run that rom on this phone.
Yes it's already on different versions of this phone n the S2.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Well first step is to ask the dev if you can use his work then if you cant do it yourself ask one of our devs if they would do it. And make sure that the proper people get the credit.
Tbh, I don't think it's needed. You will break more functionality on the note than anything. If you simply like how your old rom looks, load the deodexed /rooted stock rom from the dev section and then find your favorite theme and load it up.
