Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,
My name is Alekos
I finally got the kitchen working from dsixda's thread on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
I'm using Cygwin, and Ofc It works fine, but I was curious to whether I can make my custom rom, is there a guide that I can read and follow along upon creating my custom built rom?
I wish to become a XDA Developer one day
So...can anyone redirect or guide me the way of cooking in the kitchen?
I use a HTC EVO 4G (Supersonic)
It's nand unlocked and rooted.
I want to learn how to make a custom rom but I need someone who has been building/cooking custom roms for Supersonic HTC EVO, and I'll be gladly to donate to anyone who's willing to give me a little guidance help.
Three things I need answers on:
Where is the fun in the kitchen?
Isn't there a guide to cooking roms for EVO?
Is there any other methods or hidden secrets or tricks to cooking?
I am an EVO Phone User, so please give me constructive criticism on my needed assistance.
C'mon no one can tell me where to get started on my custom rom? I've read some interesting threads but I'm curious to see whether I'm doing the right thing or not in the kitchen.
Can you let me know if anyone helps you with this?

Read these two threads and follow the links. It's just a start, but it should help.

The kitchen really is just a time saver. It's still really helpful to dig down and understand what's going on. I've actually learned quite a bit from looking at the scripts in the kitchen.
I don't think there is one "How to cook a ROM guide" yet, but I have actually started making one in my 'spare' time. As I learn things, I add to it. It will eventually get posted.
EDIT: I stand corrected. See this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697938

Ok so I've had my Sprint CDMA Hero since it first came out and rooted as soon as I could.
I've searched alot but want to make a Rom from ground up with my friend. We're going to try to make a Rom for both the G1 and The Hero (Through porting). I'm willing to learn as much as I need to, and have a spare computer for Development that has Linux on it.
If anyone wants to teach me I would be greatful
Can anyone help me if not the mods can close this...
Some things are sticky for a reason.
I think what cauli meant to say is:
You need to read Cyanogen's guide stickied in this forum. He is the main man regarding Android development and really knows his stuff.
If you still have questions regarding compiling your own rom, you're of course free to ask.
Just don't think the "chefs" will give you a quick tour on rom cooking, since it's pretty heavy stuff and takes alot of time and reading up to get to know the basics.
Good luck though.
Thank you for your help... Mods please close this thread
ok its just as the thread states...
i want to cook roms and have a port of htc sense for my phone. still i have recently learned how to modify apk's to my liking but i want to cook my own roms and share as i finish any good work. i have tried using the kitchen from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 but i am still unsure if this is what i need. i have read that it is also not as good as it should be because it is only built for htc phones. i am looking for as much info as possible so any and all links shared are appreciated. i am also available via pm and screen name at gmail.com! thanks to you all and i hope this message was read in the best of your health. happy holidays and posting!
wow! i got my own thread from google thinking it was something i missed
I would like to start learning how to mod ROMs and eventually get into developing my own. After being a user for over a year I'd like to help a little myself eventually. I'm looking for a good place to start , kind of like an all in one tutorial if possible. I know a good amount of java (I took an AP computer science class at my school if that helps you get the idea of around where I'm at) and a little C. And I'm willing to learn more along the way as needed. I have a passion for doing this kind of stuff so hopefully it won't be too hard to learn. I'm willing to start anywhere and any guidance is much appreciated.
Check the developers thread a guide has been posted already

With the onset of the unlocked bootloader, I'd like to start looking into deving for Atrix and Android in general.
I do know how to program and can pick up another language rather easily, I know my way inside and out of a Linux box, and I see this as a great opportunity.
So, what sort of things should I start reading/looking into?
I would check out
http://code.google.com/edu/android/index.html
I am not a dev so there could be better places to start, but have a look

Learn Java. You're going to need it.
You may want to speak to some of the atrix devs or xda devs in general in irc and ask them specifically.
http://webchat.freenode.net/ #moto-atrix and #xda-devs
Alright, thanks for the responses. I'm actually learning Java from the ground up via AP Computer Science A online. I'll lurk IRC for a while as well.
Same here
I'm also looking into Atrix/Android development, although the coolest thing I've ever done with Java (one of two languages I know anything about) is make Snake, which wasn't that good of a game haha.
I've done some tutorials on Android development, so I know my way around a bit of it, but that's the most of it. Is there is a good book or online resource that can help teach Android development for basically beginners?
i would go to this site: http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/#more-2256
yes, the competition shows you how it is done. You need to learn first how to compile a kernel for the phone.
You can try downloading the motorola kernel and use the steps in the blog to help you do the same.
So I'm going to try to start doing some dev work. I feel like my programming and hardware background is sufficient enough that I should be able to pick it up fairly quickly especially with some of the tools I've already found.
Question for the existing devs working on the note...
Are you using a tool like Custom ROM Creator Studio or are you doing it by other means? I looked and there doesn't appear to be a book I could read to help me along like I've done in the past with other languages/etc. Are you doing it directly through a linux box? I have a lot of questions as I am beginning this process but for now I have to go off of what I find through google and here. So any help or direction would be appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: I'm currently reading through the documentation at source.android.com
If you don't get and responses I would suggest searching in the general forum area of xda, I found good info on developing there when I was thinking about it.

Searching through the general forum now. Finding a lot of device specific stuff, specifically HTC. I'll keep looking though. Thanks for the tip!
Still doing my homework...any teachers that can tell me what homework I should be doing would still be nice
I admire your courage. Best of luck. We need more devs.

I'm setting up my dev environment on my mac now. With some time (and maybe some luck) I can start moving on this. I'm going to have to set up the same environment on my mac at home as well so I can play around there too. I didn't realize that I'd have to set up such a huge virtual machine to do the development on my windows machine. Didn't really want to give up all that space.
I love my note but want that power that those devs have! Back when I was on my Galaxy S II I went nuts trying to find the one ROM that had everything I wanted but could never find that one ROM that suited me. I have to admit that is my driving force for wanting to develop. Obviously I'll be happy to share what I do (if I really am able to do something) and even support what I release because thats what a good dev does
I've been programming since I was 12. Taken some college courses but dropped out because I knew more than the instructors and was bored out of my mind. Ended up with a job at that university! Now I'm just hoping I can pick up the android os like I was able to pick up everything else.
