I know there used to be an amazing guide that takes you step by step form scratch installing and customizing your own rom. I have searched all over the forum but i cant seem to find it again, does anyone remember the thread im talking about?
Hey guys, I'm kind of new to this whole table thing, but I was wondering if there was a step by step walk thru on how to overclock? Also, is it safe? Sorry, I know I'm a noob.
Anyways, thanks for the help
welcome to android. Here's what you need:
A rooted tab
a custom ROM or at least a custom Kernel that allows overclocking
SetCPU application.
If any part of this is unfamiliar to you then you've got some reading to do. There are plenty of step by step guides, so take your time, read a LOT before taking any steps, and ask questions once you've done enough reading to not sound like you need your hand held.
I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong forum, but i'm posting here because i think i am in the right place.. If not mods please move this to appropriate forum..
So I'm on the nexus s 4g and i'm feeling like i'm ready to get into porting and then development.. I really just need help understanding eclipse and how to port in general.. I know eclipse is great for developement and I just installed the adt and the sdks through eclipse and I need to know how to set this up so I can run a logcat through adb so I can see why my port isn't fully booting.. I'm stuck at the boot animation.. I've tried reading some guides but because i'm still a noob i feel like there's always something i'm missing.. I was hoping someone here would be so kind as to help run me through on getting this set up and helping me understand the fundementals..
there are many that know more than me, but i can try to help a little bit...
first off, im going to assume you are porting roms, not apps, because of how you have things worded i was a bit confused at first.
now, eclipse is an amazing IDE, but when it comes to porting android roms from device to device its not going to be much (if any at all) help to you. eclipse is great for application development, and building a full, ready to install android package (apk) for pushing to the market or side-loaded. (installed on data partition)
there dont tend to be many guides or strait line ways do do things. it all comes out of experience and good problem solving skills. learn to read your logcats, understand what they are saying. you will get it!
im more of a source built kind-of-guy, and never did any porting of pre-compiled roms. but i know http://freeyourandroid.com/ is a great resource for getting started with just that.
please also think about looking into the android build system, its complicated, but you will get it eventually, and it will teach you how a rom really works, and is really built, and it gives you complete control to do anything you want.
hope this was a little help.

the only reason i was setting up eclipse for this was because it was to my understanding it had the tools needed to get adb to produce a logcat, i've delt with apps before.. I made myself a lil launcher for miui and a couple others, but i just have no idea on how to do anything with adb and gettings log cats.. I do appreciate your response and i will take a look at that website.
As the Title says,
I am a noob.
I am very friendly to dsixda's Kitchen, But, I can't do Major mods like changing the version number of Android System in Settings.
I want step by step tutorial.
Please teach me.

If you are looking for the guide, go to this page and read it carefully. Developing is not easy. It's like chemistry to non-chemist, so you need to start doing some simple things and learn or better go to some computer science school.

Hi boy,
I want to create my own custom rom (for nexus 4),nothing complicated (for now ).
Here there are a lot of big developers that i I respect a lot and for this i want to ask you the process I have to do or guides that I follow.
In this week I've find a lot of tutorial but i don't know if they are compatible with lollipop and the tests I've done have all gone wrong.
If one of you show me a guide to follow, it would follow having at least make sure to get the results and did not waste time to have followed a guide incompatible or old.
I know C#, java and C but i can study other languages.
I apologize if you find this post trivial, is that I really want to learn but i'm only 17 years old and it is not easy to understand English.
I rely on you, thanks! :fingers-crossed:
