Hi excuse me, I have some experience from peoples which they got errors and bugs. I felt since I was making custom ROM. I DIDN'T USE KITCHEN. But, I took from nandroid backup, Extracted system files, then I gave meta-inf, repackaged and signed using SignApk. So....Why did they prefer to make custom ROM using kitchen ?
Thanks
Let me do anything to get ultimate

Hey!
I have a little noob question. I have installed a theme (Nabeel's ICS theme), I flashed the zip, but can I just install a rom over it? Thank you in advance for your help.

First you install a ROM, boot it up at least once THEN go back into CWM and flash the theme over the ROM.
The files in the theme write over the original ROM files - that is how the theme is applied (at least through CWM it is).
If you are using CyanogenMod then that ROM has a theme chooser in it which can apply a theme without needing to use the recovery or reboot the phone.
Total noob question btw, you should do a bit more reading before messing about with your lovely device at this level - You don't want to accidentally brick it!
Thank you, but I actually meant that I had a theme installed, and if it would do any harm to just install a ROM over it. But thanks anyway. I did it and it works, if anyone is interested.
Alright. I have been fiddling with the Android Kitchen and coding stuff into a custom ROM.
My question is this:
Since I am using another ROM as a base (not stock), would it be frowned upon if I were to make the ROM I cook up public, giving credit where credit is due of course?
Example, Eugene released a custom ROM, using the Juggernaut ROM as a base.
I would be doing the same thing, except not using the Juggernaut ROM as a base, however, I would be implementing other build.prop, init.d mods and tweaks found and developed by other users as well and the original developer of the ROM I am using as a base.
As long is credit is given where is it is due, is this acceptable, or would this be frowned upon? Would I get flamed for just copying and pasting other people's work into a ROM? The finished ROM would be very different from the original creator's ROM, different sounds, different theme, different apps included, different tweaks, status bar mods, etc etc etc.
Thanks for the input! I just don't want to step on any toes!
I'd say that this really depends on who wrote the rom you're using for a base. I'd ask them if it's ok for you to use their current rom as a base before I started posting anything, it's really the proper way to do it. If they say it's fine, and you give proper credit, I don't see a problem.
True enough. Perhaps it would just save a lot of trouble if I started with a stock base.
True. But it never hurts to ask, you may get a developer who lets you use his as a base. You never know until you ask
That's true.
I think I will be using a stock as base. Though. If I want to learn, that's the best way to do it!
Hi,
I've been an avid guest on this forum for about a week now. I got the HTC One X international version running rd-miui 2.8.3 CM9 version and used this awesome forum to learn all the unlocking bootloader, rooting, and custom rom business all pretty fast. I'm trying to pick up kerneling but need some help.
1. it's my understanding that the kernel resides within the boot.img?
2. what exactly are modules (that sometimes comes along with certain kernels??) Is it absolutely necessary to install the modules in recovery after flashing the boot.img in fastboot?
3. I want to use the ncx-v.0.65 kernel with the rd-miui 2.8.3 CM9 rom but there isn't a repack for this rom. I found a nice tutorial of how to do this in windows but still a little confused on some things.
to repack the ncx-v.0.65 kernel for rd-miui 2.8.3 CM9 version --- can I just unpack my rom's boot.img, then replace the boot.img-kernel with the boot.img-kernel inside the boot.img of the ncx-v.0.65. Then repack and flash the new boot.img (with the ncx-v.0.65's boot.img-kernel inside)??
would I need modules???
4. is there a tool/app to easily repack kernels for other roms?
5. what's the best kernel out there for htc one x? Does that depend on which rom you're running? I'm mainly trying to improve my battery life but wouldn't want to sacrifice stability for it.
Thanks for your help guys.
PS. what does "OP" stand for?
Also, is anyone else experiencing problems with the volume rocker wake on RD-MIUI 2.8.3?? It would work for like 5-10 sec after phone sleeps but anytime after that it won't work...then sometimes it would work after a long standby/sleep.

1: yes.
2: They help the kernel work. They are necessary.
3: You need to flash the modules from the thread and repack the kernel, using
4: this
5: There isn't really a 'best' all round. You'd have to try each kernel and choose which one you want.
PS: OP stands for original post or original poster.
so after I repack the boot.img with the kernal I want then flash it in fastboot..then I still gotta install the modules in recovery?
just use the module from the OP even though it wasn't been repacked for my specific rom? (Do modules need repacking??)
i noticed that sometimes (not always) the module .zip contains a folder named "kernel" with a boot.img inside it.]
is that kernel folder necessary? Do the modules need to be repacked?
Hey guys, another noob question. im currently on stock rom ulvh2 , im want to get a custom rom, but i can find for differet stocks like uvlg and stuff like that, the problem is that i cant find anywhere to download this stock rom e,g uvlg to flash on it the room, my question is does the custom rom comes with the stock rom already? it surely takes alot of space ~500mb (the wicked one).
Also what is the meaning of "ADT" and the word "Hybrid" i speaking about the wicked rom.
Final questions is what is the difference between the Tmobile original development thread and the tmobile development thread.
Im really trying to understand the stuff going here- not easy i have to say
thanks for the help!

Custom ROMs like the ones you are talking about are stock with modifications, so yes, it is the "full" package.

I'm new to Android (came from BlackBerry), but hybrid means exactly what you would think. It's a cross between multiple packages. Some good things taken from each one.
Android Development Tools (ADT) is a plugin for the Eclipse IDE that is designed to give you a powerful, integrated environment in which to build Android applications.
ADT extends the capabilities of Eclipse to let you quickly set up new Android projects, create an application UI, add packages based on the Android Framework API, debug your applications using the Android SDK tools, and even export signed (or unsigned) .apk files in order to distribute your application.

Development: not original works. Modified stock roms, modems, etc.
Original Development: original works. CyanogenMod, MIUI, the AOKP builds, etc.
I'm needing some help and suggestions with using the right developing tools to build roms, de-comlpiling and re-compiling apk's, de-odexing and zipalign.
at the moment I an starting out with dsixda's Android Kitchen.
I am working on the new ICS release trying to create a custom cwm flashable rom.
thanks
