im looking for a rom package with WM6.5 and sense 2.1 thats easy to install for a newbie. if it has a good instruction manual i would be greatful. thanks in forehand for all the help
Read the sticky's they will provide all info needed regards Hard-SPL \ flashing custom ROMs then check out ROM threads and flash away, till you find the ROM you wish to keep.
No easy way to it, good luck.
On that note thread closed.

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.
i am a humongus fan of this dev..he has brought so many really cool roms to the sprint note 3..but i am really confused about what version im even on..the titles help some..but i would like to experiance every rom,and every version from the beginning to the end.. he has so many..if somneone could help me out by creating a easy readable list of all his roms,in oder,and grouped....im pretty sure he has more than just the M.O.A.R versions..and ive had lot of trouble installing these roms also..i know there are threads helping people install instructions..im jus asking for a thread dedicated to all his roms in one place,and in order,so we can start from beginning,and upgrade accordingly..maybe even install steps for twrp,and philz in the same thread??...if im asking to much,then if someone cpould help me figure this out,and send me a mess with all links in order,cause im lost..

We need to keep all the threads separate per Rom.
For a few reasons, it would be difficult for one person to keep up with every single Rom @sac23 has made on 1 OP post.
It isn't that difficult to sift throughout the development section and or the Q&A section.
If you have issues, questions then please find a member to ask and they'll usually be MORE than happy to assist you.
We all started somewhere, usually from the bottom and some are on the top now.
I hope this answer helped your question out, I tried to the best of my ability.
