Damn, I'd love to help you guys, but I'm a noobie at Android app programming and mid-noobie in Java in general..
If you still wanted help even from a newb, just ask though

Status Update:

applying "marked" hotfix should work but still work to read from repository
GUI is about 50% Done
Running shell commands or su commands works now like it should

Another great Project. I saw that GUI status is at 50-60%, if you would like help with graphics (buttons, etc) send me a PM, maybe I can help you

Hey slade, awesome project again!
I can give you 2GB storage with direct access (eg. mydomain.hu/ROMs/sladefroyo.zip- it is downloadable no need to upload rapidshare, megaupload, etc.) and FTP uploading. It is enough about 20 ROMs. PM me is interested, I think it's easier coding than downloading from filesharing portals, update check is implemetable with editing a text file, minimal traffic on the device.
Edit: of course, for free

Source code
Hello, Slade, i would like to help (But i am kinda still a newbie), But as in the parantheses it says that i am still a newbie, if you could give me the source code so i could learn of it and maybe develop a little of it. - I would really apreciate that

Hi D4,
I know that, this is only my report as Beta Tester!
Note: It seems that SU permissions is requested only when we choose one of the options (like backups), maybe it is better to requested it once we launch the app?

Hi Slade,
Maybe you can reuse part of the source code of original ROM Manager?
Developper site
Github
Or simply use ROM Manager to manage new ROM downloads... here

Thanks for the suggestions, but RomManager sources are not public, the links at github point to clockworkmod recovery.
And i think its good if we have our own RomManager

No there is nothing that says anything about black status bar...just that its theme-able, which in that case we would have to wait for someone to theme it...like originally said

i am sorry. i couldnt find the download link... can someone tell me where is the link? thx

Great News.Thanks Paul.

What does being lazy have to do with it? What is the issue with Paul getting a little payback for providing you all with custom ROM after custom ROM...especially considering the ungrateful, hateful attitude that it seems more and more people here are adopting.

Yeah, atleast let the Rom upload first before everyone goes on spewing about how the world is coming to an end now because they can't find the link and the assumption is it's something you have to pay for.
OBSERVATION SKILL, if it say 'UPLOADING' pretty sure it means it's not ready for download yet but then again I could be wrong in the sense that UPLOADING now means, please pay me.

Prebakes now online.
It takes a short while to upload and mirror 4 different versions of the ROM. I think I made it pretty clear they were on the way though what with having written UPLOADING in upper case 4 times.
Be cool.

I think the only difference is the new gmail app.

Oh ok I'll look around, see what feels "new".

Has anyone flashed this yet? I'd love to hear what you guys think. Is anyone having wifi issues?
(updates with 720p and LeoParts should be live tomorrow or monday, as well as trackball wake)

FRF91 based on?
I love stock rom with root only and base mods, so your is good (except bootanimation.zip, i love default one).

It's a fresh build based on the latest AOSP source, so it should have all the FRF91 goodies.
Thanks for trying it out!
If you want a stock bootimage: adb remount, push this to /system/media, then reboot.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/sjxpzpi2hc9809x/bootanimation.zip
I just happen to love the color yellow

Update script fixed. Uploading now. Huge thanks to leonnib4 for gtalking with me at 5am Paris time!

ATTENTION! To fix SuperUser.apk, follow these instructions:
Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/file/9n9s33c81qgzabj/sh
Code:
adb remount
Code:
adb push /path/to/sh /system/bin
Code:
adb reboot
To test if it worked, type in terminal:
Code:
adb shell
I'll add this to my update.zip and upload after the weekend. Gone camping

is this as close to stock froyo rom?
also, do you think you can do one with nothing on it? just stock with all the necessaries and tweaks? and normal boot animation ?

It's pretty damn close
I think Geo411m's froyo is a better bet foor you, but it isn't aosp. It's basically the same tweaks as mine, but in a modified stock FRF91 package. Stock feel, good tweaks under the hood.

flashed yours, but i get problem connecting to wifi, keep saying obtaining IP.
Also, it won't save my APN

That's odd...I'm in the process of tweaking my source and straightening it out...I should have a beta 1 out this weekend. Little busy today though . In the mean time, try out leonnib4's LeoFroyo AOSP build. He's one of my favorite rom chefs, and it's one of my favorite roms.

V4.31.44.12
v4.32.44.12 applied with theme from he_stheone64.
Important note:
I create the Desire Series together with freak, and also got a lot of help from many technical experts, so, please thank them as well if you like the build.
This thread is for discussing the SD builds only.
All the releases please check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962600.
Please discuss the NAND builds at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913597&page=457
Before flash or install new builds:
1. DON'T expect it will work out of box.
2. DON'T expect it will be as light and fast as Gingerbread.
3. DON'T expect that some legacy problem will disappear
4. Reboot your phone at lease twice after flashing or installing, after 1st boot into setting screen, long press the right button to recall the boot menu, reboot. Can not use /Update_DL method to install app before 3rd reboot.
5. For this version, due to the base has been changed throughly, can not use previous data.img or ext4, remove existing data.img and set data_img=1 to let system generate one for you, or set format_ext4=1 to format your ext4 if you are using ext4
6. DON'T set any config for 1st installation except data_img=1(for data.img) or format_ext4=1(for ext4 user). if your have tmous phone, no need the config.txt.
7. For SD or magldr, if 1st installation failed, must delete the system.ext2 file under /Desire_DL to let system convert it again.
8. Use Windows notepad create a file named config.txt, save it under /Desire_DL, only need to put the necessary config inside it, say:
data_img=1
Important Release Note
This build is another endeavor by freak and me to improve the performance of our build, now, besides our existing optimization methods: squashfs, ext4, etc, this build has been added in the following features to improve it performance furthermore:
1. AUFS + SquashFS.
this is the 1st android version that can support the aufs+squashfs, we
even worked with the author of aufs to make it usable to android.
a lot of innovations within this build from the technical perspective,
for users, the benefit of it are:
a. high performance
b. despite of squashfs is used to reduce the size of file system, user
still be able to change any file directly with the power of aufs.
c. a lot of frequent accessed files are squashed and loaded into ram
to improve the performance.
2. RE-Odexed.
there flood a lot of misleading messages on xda of odexed, same as
squashfs. Odex can actually improve system performance, and at the
same time, reduce the whole system's size(because the odex is
optimized dex), and odex build has less chance of system crash that
lead to wipe the davlik-cache. an odex build doest not generate the
davlik-cache which is odexed.
3. Re-Engineering Sense:
All the apps and framework were re-compiled and reduced the size to get the lowest RAM consuming and Highest performance.
4. Merged DesireZ and DesireHD into one.
Merged the advantage features from both DesireZ and DesireHD into one build.
Please refer to this thread for download and detail info of v5.xx

How to config SuperInit v4.4(advance user)
Bugfix and enhancement
Upgrade to v4.32.45.13 and v4.31.45.13 (yes, we upgrade the SuperInit and kernel together.)
How to ask for help:
1. First, make sure you ask at the proper place, this thread is only for ask the question related to the NAND, please ask questions related to SD or MAGLDR at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
2. Please indicate the following information when asking for help:
a. your phone modal: EU or TMOUS modal.
b. your loading mode: NAND, SD or MAGLDR
c. Please post the content of init.log(this file is on the root of your sdcard).
3. Please be patient and polite.
4. We(myself and freak) will only answer question that follows the above rules, thanks!!!
Naming convention
1. the 1st digit is for the build base, say DesireZ v4.xxx, is for the v4.0 base which based on the HTC RUU 1.85.
2. the 2nd field is for the subversion, normally, x.0 means the first relase which should based on a totally new base, and from x.0 till x.3, there will be a lot fix and testing, if you want a stable version, DON'T use it, and the build will be stabilized after x.4.
3. the 3rd field is for the init version, currently, our init is at v42, which is also not a stable version.
4. the 4th field will be used for the kernel, currently, freak is working on it, and will have the 1st kernel soon.

Believe it's the problem for the file permission, I only managed to fix the pppd due to I don't have wifi here, maybe will try to fix it later.

I will be visiting this forum often to see the progresses of this build.
Other thing i came accros was that titanium backup cant get root permission

[ROM] GingerKaskus 1.0.0-REL [CWM]

Hi guys, welcome to my thread 
In here, i will be posting the ROM that i built, this is based on CyanogenMod 7 latest nightly build. But before anything else, i wanted to thank the great FreeXperia team who works very hard making an opensource libraries for our beloved X8, and doixanh who teach me a lot of stuff about building android, and the last but not least, the super great racht, the developer who makes X8 better than before, and not to forget, cyanogen and their awesome team, without them maybe we cannot have incognito browsing and DSP Manager
Well, i'll just explain what kind of ROM is this. First, i build this ROM from CM7 source using FreeXperia configuration and libs for X8, not just editing someone else's ROM. Second, the reason i'm putting it here is for bughunting and of course learning to build android further . Third, the purpose of making this ROM is to have a high performance ROM that is meant for gaming, that's because i don't have any portable game console. hehe
Ok, now the feature list, here it is :
Based on CyanogenMod 7 latest build
Fully working 3 MP Camera using Eclair libcamera (now with timer) (thanks to doixanh )
Greatly improved 2D performance (most of them thanks to doixanh again )
WiFi is working fine (thanks to FreeXperia team)
GPS is working fine (thanks to FreeXperia team again )
Great 3D performance
Only needed apps are installed
doixanh's modules for X8 except Overclock
And now the known issues so far :
Offline charging doesn't work yet
The default wallpaper problem (You'll be able to tell it )
FM Radio (intentionally disable this, because i don't use it at all )
DSP Manager?
To Do in the next builds :
Make offline charging works
Fixing Memory Management (for now still using the standard memory management values)
Change the default wallpaper
Experimenting between using odex and not using odex, because it seems if we use odex, the available RAM is lower, but the performance is a bit better.

[ROM][SAMMY-ICS 4.0.3]MJ ROM-version 1.3[XWLP7_XENLP3][16.04.2012]

Greetings!
I have decide long enough and here i am, trying to build my own ROM and share with you guys.
I am still new in creating my ROM, yet i wanna challenge myself and try to have fun with it. To be honest, it is harder than i thought with no complete tutorial out there.
I am planning to start things slowly and learning as i go along. Thus, i start with the basic, modifying stock ROM, and de-odex them. Clear all the bloatware or what i think is not necessary.
Please take note this is just a trial. If you are interested, do try out, and let me know how or where i can improve. I am noob, please don't flame me.
Current Release
MJ ROM: Trial Version 1.3 - 16.04.2012
Firmware: I9100XWLP7
CSC: XENLP3
Kernel: current LATEST Siyah Kernel v3.1rc4 (dual boot supported )
Coming Soon:
add in call recording feature
add in toggle bar - Postpone! Seems like Lidroid method will supercede my translucent status bar.will fine other method to make both thing works.
planning to switch launcher, as i am not too fond with Apex (suggestion please)
create my own logo (might take times, still figuring out)
Beats audio, anyone? (some claim it doens't work, does it? )

Bugs:
Not everything is perfect, though i expected a perfect ROM to ease everyone. However, there are some minor bug i encounter. Not a big deal.
- Keyboard not poping up at the initial setup the ownership of the phone
solution: i realise it takes time for the ROM to load up the keyboard (maybe due to language change from netherland to english - united state issue). what i do is, i just press back and forward few time, and the keyboard will initially pop up. don't worry, it just happen the very first time android setup. no more issues after that.
- Messaging app cannot use
solution: i suspect this is Apex Launcher issues. just delete the dock bar Messaging shortcut. Drag and put the new Messaging app from app drawer and you are good to go.

thanks man! btw, is it legal to use theme provide here? can i use the mod they provide here? i scare i violate the rules or whatever copyright thingy.

U can use themes,apps and other mods from developers just ask their permission first and credit them in your op.
About supersu,you need to install(push) binary for it to work. Think it's binary is a xbin file, but not sure ask in chainfire thread.
anyways good luck with your project

thanks for your hints and advise. really appreciate it.
edit: i think i found the reason on why my custom ROM is not rooted. it seems like i am using stock ROM unrooted, that's why it is not rooted. base on my research, i just have to flash the stock ROM, root it, flash kernel and old bootloader. back up, and start cooking afterward. correct me if i am wrong.
anyway, gonna try it tomorrow. used almost full day in trial and error, at least i can flash and run my first trial.
