Cooking My 1st Rom (Experts plzzzz have a look :o)

hey everyone
i'm trying to build my first rom, not sure what i am doing but still trying
i would like to list what i've done, and i would love if Dev's could confirm/correct what i've done.
So this is my status :
** Env: winxp & VMware (linux ubuntu 10.11)
1- Kitchen : dsixda-Android-Kitchen-0.188-0-ge5d2a45
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
2- Rom : Pre-rooted Stock Gingerbread (3.14.405.1)
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200261
3- using Kernel Gingercakes0.9cfs_2way_HAVS
url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254272
- extracted current Rom's Kernel (using kitchen), replaced zImage, then re-packed boot.img,
also replaced bcm4329.ko at /system/lib/modules with the one in the Kernel's update zip file.
4- added ext4 support (the Mod was at the rom thread)
- by adding the lib/modules files & the init.d/00ext4 file
5- deodexed both /system/app & /system/framework : using the kitchen menu.
6- added NANO editor : using the kitchen menu.
7- custom bootanimation functionality (/data/local) : using kitchen menu.
8- zipaligned apk files under /system/app : using kitchen menu.
i will continue adding mods and so, but i need someone -please- to confirm or correct my steps
one major thing i am not sure about is that i can use the gingercackes kernel with a bravo rom?
i mean not a ported Rom from Ace.
also there was more than one update package for kernel to use, i picked cfs_2way_HAVS as a test
there were more like SVS and so.. what is the diferences -short words will be good -
any help will be gratfuly appreciated.
thanks.

This isn't building a Rom, this is taking someone else's rooted stock and adding options using dsixda kitchen. There isn't really anything that can go wrong. Children can do it. In fact they do...

OMG that was OUCH
ok i said i am new , don't know if words are really critical this way
build , customize , or adding options ...
i am not claiming it for me, as i mentioned all URLs i used
so i am not stealing anyone's hard work ... right?
i was really happy when i saw a reply to my thread, but really got surprised when i red it.
just like a pull-back
even you did not answer any question ...
thanks .

Sorry, not meant to be a dig. You just select what options you want and select build. If you can press buttons on a keyboard, you're doing it right. It can't be simpler. There is literally no advice to give.

[Mod][Stock][Root][1.29.401.11] Remove Menubar for odexed Stock Rom!

I decided to open my own thread with the Menubutton-bar hack just for stock Roms! Many people asked for this mod in blubbers thread and the links and availability for the ODEX Stock versions where not there
I personally use the standard button configuration Back - Home - Recent with the addition of LongPressHome -> Menu because i think the hardware buttons should be working the way that they are intended, and also i don't need the menu button that often!
However i will also provide the second version of this mod, with the following buttonconfiguration: Back - Home - Menu and LongPressHome -> Recent
Information:
other android.policy.jar mods will be lost (e.g. volumebutton mods, advanced powermenu)
[Side effect]Arrow keys on htc softkeyboard are only visible in ICS conform apps, don't know yet why they don't show on legacy apps
Prerequisites:
Stock Rom
Odexed
Root
CWM Recovery or any compatible
Installation:
!!Requires Root!!
Just download the file, place it on the Sdcard and flash from ClockworkMod Recovery!
If you like the mod, please take a few seconds, and click on the "Thanks" button below!
The following downloads are available:
1.29.401.11:
box links and xda dl are the same files
{Back - Home - Recent} + Long press home -> Menu: lphome-menu.zip
{Back - Home - Menu} + Long press home -> Recent: recent_menu.zip
Stock file if someone wants to clean the mod, or before flashing any OTA update: stock.zip
Credits: blubbers for the initial mod and idea
for deodexed stock roms, or any custom rom, go to his Thread: [MOD|1.26|1.28|1.29] Disable the annoying ICS 3-dot Menu [deodexed]

Anyone tried this mod with Bricked kernels sweep2wake?

i used bricked with sweep2wake on 401.7 and had no problems, but i reverted to stock kernel because of random reboots with bricked

thanks mate works good on stock 1.29.407.11

works fine thx!

Hey mate. Nice work but no credits to blubbers or link to his thread?

Thank you so much for this, works perfectly!
Was really looking for something like this, good work!

After flashing recent_menu my phone wouldn't boot, then realised I'm only on 401.7
After updating to 401.11 I flashed it again and it works perfect

Just tried it again and boot locked. :-( thanks for working on this though

ah ok sorry, the mod for 1.28 is also only for the international unlocked version, 1.28.401.7
yours is .110. which is a carrier model i asume?
############### this mod is from today officially discontinued by me, so no odexed versions coming because i traded my One X for a galaxy nexus, just couldn't stand the crap software htc has made out of android ics #################

Make it close to the looks of Sense 4.0 !

this is only my advice. you can ignore it if you want.
developing a rom is different with cook a rom. a real rom developoer will never ask another dev to make a base rom for them. they will use a stock rom or use the source to create their own rom. I can understand that you have different high enthusiasm to develop a rom, but the path you've choose is not the right one if you want to be a great dev. I'm afraid you'll ashamed your name if you continue like this. if you don't know how to create a base rom or another stuff needed to build a rom, take your time to learn all those stuff. you can come back later if you're ready with your rom.

Ok, I cleaned up some of the comments here.
Please discontinue the name-calling and keep things civil.
Thank you.

no problem

well...I don't have any idea what happened here since I left this forum last morning.
@astrul: you can follow this step to get a stock base rom
1. create a backup of your stock rom via CWM.
2. go to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/<backup folder name>
3. copy system.rfs.tar inside your backup folder to your computer.
4. extract a custom rom. go to /system
5. delete everything inside except /system/bin and /system/bin
6. go to your system.rfs.tar, extract it.
7. go copy everything inside system folder to the extracted custom rom except /system/bin and /system/bin.
8. done
this step will create a stock rom with a2sd darktremor binary file inside it.

i have some issues with viper 2.0 rom.
- always make full wipe. but sometimes doesn't work all apk's in system/app, and sometimes doesn't work sound enchanments (try all things to solve sometimes work-sometimes not)
- semcgenericuxp.apk still cant instaled.(when im tick always show install but nothing any effect) (the rom never install. )
- can't use any flashable mod. (always get bootloop)
- i still can't find any other systemui.apk if work with 2.0 (not the simple and 4.2 too)<- in 1.1 work so idk what happened.

[Q] ROM Toolbox Pro Issues

Hello Everyone,
I recently downloaded the "ROM Toolbox Pro" app onto my HTC One V. At first I wasnt sure of all the things you can modify your phone with, but after looking and playing around for a few hours I got the idea. I noticed that you can change your [3G] icon to different colors and so forth for other icons on your phone. When I reboot the phone after applying a new boot logo, and Icon it didnt work at all. My first thought was that maybe you cannot modify anything with the Stock ROM? If anyone can tell me any information about this, that would be wonderful!
Also if I need to switch my ROM to something else, can someone please send me a link to a good ROM for the HTC One V that doesnt have any issues, and the full setup on how to do it? That would be wonderful!
Thanks alot,
WizzyCreator

One major problem to some no camera since it's kernel is ion based. I like this room a little more to cm10.1
If u are primou I'll provide u links if u like as always read tutorials and the instructions in the developers ROMs introduction post of what ever ROM u choose. Some ROMs have a little different way of that rom being flashed in order for it to work. As always i am in no way at fault for any thing or way that u may totally f up ur phone during the process of flashing my ROM or any other ROM/kernel.
Good luck and welcome to xda

Boot Animation - Install
I've had problems with getting new fonts on my Samsung Player 5 (ROM: Chip1.5).
Worse, the Boot Animation and Randomizer won't let me change the boot animation any longer. It was working (especially when I had the standalone Boot Animation app). Not sure what happened?
Thanks.

FYI this is a one v forum, ask in the player 5 forum so that people may be able to help with a particular ROM you're runnin
btw, Never use rom toolbox; it does more harm

Try installing Sphongle ROM or Omega ROM. They are quite perfect for everyday use. I've been using sphongle from last 8-9 months. Rom toolbox works perfectly in it.

Same case with me I have deodexed my rom and still cannot change the notification background.
Do you know where the original notification bar background file is located?
