Hi
just wondering if there is anyone out there who is prepared to make me a custom rom the way i like it.
there are so many things for the sgs2 but so many roms are over done with the same colour or they have that nasty overscroll glow
i liked the black theme someone made but his requirments meant i had to have certain things to make it work, things i didnt want
to give you an idea, im a fan of stock look. im also a big fan of black and white themes
so if there is someone willing to give it ago please let me know and i'll donate a few $$
thanks Garth
I don't mean to be rude, but you're clearly a newbie here.
You simply don't ask devs to make custom ROMS according to your personal preferences. You can learn to do it yourself, or use one of the many available and awesome custom ROMS.
It takes much much effort to create and test a custom ROM.
Another point, if you did not create "it" then it does not belong in "Android Development" but in General or Q&A.
Here i made you a rom to your specs
gtda's Custom Rom
MD5: 1431431BAE34F3E3D41AB434
BASED ON KG2
instead of pointing your fingers on him, try to help him or if you can't then stop yelling at some one because you are not special or genius too. You also depend on this forum thats why you are wasting your time here.
mate here is your rom, this is not exactly as you want but its at least closer to your requirements
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15782324&postcount=403
as per other posts that clearly don't belong in the dev forum, the OP gets the video.
we all are new to many things, if we are not able to help then we also should not point out fingers. Simply get respect by giving respect.

Seeing the op, I wanted so much to be the one to give him the noob video
lol! Good work tjjensen23
wow nice response
i guess being a 30yo man with a 6month old to take care of i dont have the time to sit down and make roms. i have tried nearly every rom and theme and i dont like them. back when i had a sgs1 a guy posted he would make custom roms for ppl, figured someone here mite do the same. if its too much effort, dont make me one, simple
ppl add too much stuff that is useless to me and looks unatractive and makes the ui look like a preschool child drew it
things ppl add that i dislike
overscroll glow
battery percentage (i use fancy widgets, it has battery percentage)
changing the wifi and 3g/H to green. i prefer white on all of them
i dislike transparency on menus. makes it hard to read the menu
i like having customisable ext menu
i dont like making all the menu items one colour, stock colours are fine
id like a aosp style lock menu, or at least change the message colour from orange to blue
crt off would be nice as long as its working properly
so as you can see there is no other rom out there like that
i offered to pay so its not like im being a cheap skate expecting someone to stop everything they are doing just for me
video was funny, so im not offended if thats what u were trying to accomplish

The posts are due to you not reading the rules i guess rather than the fact you have asked for a personal rom build .
Personally i dont care what or where you post as forum gone to hell in a bucket as regards rules .

I don't think your wishes are irrelevant but they may be a little unrealistic - poll 100 people in here and they'd all want something slightly different from their ROM. So building a ROM may be unrealistic given the other demands on your time, but learning a bit of theming - which is what most of your wishlist seems to be about - isn't and may be your way forward. You may even get a more positive response to your enquiry on the Themes forum.
You are getting the negative vibes because your post is clearly posted in the wrong place - this is not the place for questions of this type, as clearly stated in several places.
ok so i wrote it in the wrong section
move it then, im not a mod so i cant.
whats wrong with the world today, i asked a question and got smashed for it, instead of baggin the **** outta me, point me in the right direction
ive looked at every theme here for sgs2, none interest me. and i wont flash a rom with things i wont be happy with.
i honestly have hardly any time to learn how to make them, i work, i take care of baby, i sleep (very little) i work again. i get a few hours every now and then to mess with my phone, so far its just been flashing the latest leaked roms
if i had more time i wouldnt be putting this request out there, id try make one myself
like i said, u dont wanna make it, then dont
u wanna help ppl, then move my thread to the right section
i apologise i put it in the wrong section im a n00b after all

Lol a noob with more than 100 posts ...
You have the time to try each roms but don't have the time to try to learn by yourself.
You are ready to pay for it,it is your choice but please, just be clear.
You don't want to make your customROM ( others occupations)
You wan't to pay someone to do the job for you . the end

Find a ROM you like that's the closest to what you want. Then you could theme it using Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen. Hope that helps.

If you don't have then use the ROMs here or don't buy a phone your not happy with. Nobody will want to make a ROM for you. No time that is your problem. I am a noob too but I read the rules.
I guess you can wait for the public rom kitchen once available ( you proly dont need to wait much longer )
After that you should be able to learn just a few things about themeing or some1 will probably make a black white theme.
I understand that it may be easy for some1 experienced to make exactly the rom you want but i don't believe some1 will bother , having to deal with updates/bugs e.t.c.
Rom kitchen and a few themeing abilities is the most realistic approach as i see it
p.s. sorry for my miss-spelling , too many beers
Well someone out there was kind enough to make me one and is helping with updates. I had a look at what was involved in making one and I just don't understand everything. I look forward to the kitchen release coz ive used it with my sgs and it was great. Thanks to the ppl who actually helped

LOL at the reactions of people in this thread, the way u guys acted about the question is really unhelpful to him pointing him as being NOOB or whatever, the person made a mistake.. its a community to help each other, and even not a ROM MALL like u can buy ROMS as ur liking.. stop acting like "PROs" saying "NOOB" to others.. XDA is changed.. miss my hermes times..

Which acronyms would u like to know? Its hard not to speak "tech" cuz that's what it is when when doing this type of stuff.
Once you learn the basics as long as u have a bit of common sense u should be alright. This is my first smarphone EVER and I got it two months ago. Im still learning but I am also now able to help some people.
And just dint start new threads for every problem /question you have. Im not digging into u at all just warning ya that people might jump down ur throat for askng something that has already been answered 100 times here.
You can PM me with questions and I will gladly do what I can to help or point ya in the right direction as best I can.
Have fun learning. There is a lot you can do. Hopefully we get an unlocked bootloader and can really get the ball rolling here
ok guys i know alot of people r done with this phone but i find it is more than capable of doing what i need it to do. i have tried so many different things with this phone and have "bricked" it so many times ive gotten pretty good and recovering this thing.
now ill be honest i dont know how to upload the necessary files to a site...gonna work on that now....i know i should know how to do that but i dont. i do this on my own time and am self taught ...with the help of some good friends....u know who u r....anyway..id be happy to help with anything i can. i have a link to a thread that helped me. damn near a step by step thread on how to get to ICS from even a "bricked" phone that a friend of mine talked me through

there is a guide in the general section that covers this...why is it some folks want to start a guide this late in the game? the only reason i started mine back in august was alot of the links were broke and some of the information is dated in the stickies. i keep mine updated and everything is covered. if your looking for thanks, then refer folks to it and ill hit your thanks button.
wasnt tyin to start a guide or look for thanx...was just trying to help....some things are confuzing for some.
and thats why there is a guide in the general section with links and step by step instructions...if one thinks its confusing then they need to take a step back and do alot of reading before bricking there device. aside from that this thread is in the wrong section.
then i apologize. there is no doubt u guys r way smarter then myself. im not tryin to step on toes.

not stepping on any toes man...im glad your here to help. if you feel that you can come up with a guide that is better or less confusing then by all means go for it...i was just trying to clue you in that it has been covered already to save ya some time. im by no means a no it all and learning something new all the time...again feel free to critique my guide, if you think something could be worded different to be more clear, im all ears!
i didnt even know u had a thread man. ive just had this thing for couple months and have done a lot to it and have had some help from friends willing to take time to walk me through it and be there on the fly to answer ?s...was just tryin to do the same for someone else...thats all...cheers buddy.
You will find THE GUIDE in GENERAL section, under DROIDSTYLES name. It is VERY comprehensive and thorough ;D

It is kinda cool looking, but the current stock ICS lockscreen is just as functional - as far as I can tell this would just be for looks.. I mean you get music controls on the lockscreen with the cm music.apk..
I do want to share this little laugh for me, after doing some reading I eventually ended up at this post which uses lmgtfy.com to explain someone's noobyness.. if you don't know what that is you should click this http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+to+use+diff+patch it is a nicer way of dealing with noobs I used to use it ALL the time..
I will say, if anyone wants this, it would have to be done for EACH rom - but anyone can do it, it isn't hard to learn how to decompile, and the instructions for the patch are pretty straight forward(hint, anyone can learn how to develop or at least contribute something, there are many things with low degrees of difficulty(like this!))
If anyone REALLY likes this, I challenge you to give it a shot to see if you can do it, and maybe give something back to the community!

Well, if you were willing to give it a try, you think you can do it, and you'd be willing to put out a product for the community- I'd be willing to give you pointers if you have issues I can help with, share resources that might help you out..
I'm assuming you have adb fully installed?(Android sdk installed?) Smali and baksmali-1.3.2?(those are for compiling/decompiling) Know how to sign an apk?
A lot of the above can be done thru dsixda's kitchen(easy to find in the development forums) - with the things above and a little reading/tinkering with the instructions in the original thread you posted(basically applying patch, then re-compiling or repacking), you could potentially have something working pretty easily getting it to the point where you can share it for others to use could be harder than doing it itself, but I can definitely help if you get that far. Just make a nandroid before you tinker! Lol.
If you get into the process and get a little stumped on something, send me a pm and I'll help if I can - I'm always willing to help those who are willing to help themselves

The number 1 thing developers hate is when people ask questions like this. When something is ready, it will be released. I'm sure you're not the only person lurking around these forums that wants stock jelly bean on their device. Let them do their thing and be patient. Hell, they are still baking stock ICS roms, so JB will take a little while longer. Keep being pushy and I'm sure you will end up on someone's sh*t list. Just giving you a heads up.

and its people like you guys like get there a*s kicked cause they just like to run the trap. im not one to talk trash but when someones a smarta*s to me over a simple question then all bets are off. it was a simple question that anyone who had any info on if a build is coming could have answered. exactly the answers i got from you kids i could of gotten from a baby. aka your being a smarta*s so whatever...
You come in here asking a question that is religiously flamed for and hope to not get flamed? Wow. Everyone knows not to ask for ETAs, and if you wanna talk so much smack back how about you port it over yourself.
Posting in a soon-to-be-closed thread! :victory:
Also OP, sorry you got flamed! I would guess a ROM will be out at the latest by the end of 2012 or such. I'm no dev, though. Patience, padawan!
Expect a working SDK port by the end of the month or a little ways into August. For the real deal, I'd say a few weeks after a device with jelly bean is released

as the other guys say this type of question is the few of the ones you dont ask. when a dev puts it out, it will be announced. and im sure a few devs who love senseless roms are rushing their little fingers to put out the code for it, hell the HTC ONE X international got it last night, but i know that because i like to keep up to date on my phones.
but i dunno, i gave you 2 answers and you weren't happy, here is a 3rd.

I was just giving you a heads up about the way you were asking. I don't bash people here, but some others will without hesitation. You, like all the rest of us, have and are wondering when things will get ported over and become available, but we all must be patient. The devs hate when you ask questions like this because it makes them feel rushed, and when they feel rushed they either take longer on the development of whatever project or they completely abandon it all together. Again, wasn't trying to be a smart ass to you dude, just didn't want to see you get flamed here. Like the rest of us, just be patient.
There is nothing wrong with a question like this. What I understood from the question was the OP was asking if there are any plans on it which is a legitimate and friendly question. Most question that are "If" are okay but "when" is not so good. I am wondering IF we are going to have it one day versus I am wondering WHEN they will have one. No issues with this question at all.

finally someone who is not just out to say something mean or smart to someone. and exactly what he said...im not asking "when is 4.1 going to be on our device, i want it now and it better be flawless".......NO im just simply asking if anyone has heard or talked to anyone THAT'S IT!!! so many ppl on here just out to get ya and its kinda sad if ya ask me but whatever its all good. anyways to the few that gave a good response thank you. no thanks to the rest....

first off i didnt mean to hit the "thanks" button i hit it on accident going for the "quote" button. but idk who your talking about because if you could read you would of seen that i wasn't asking for an ETA. I was asking if there will be and if its even possible to port something from another phone like the "gnex" over to our phone. and last if you would read some more of this thread you would see that i wasn't the one running my mouth so dont come at me like that saying i was.
Doesn't matter if the op was right or wrong in asking his question. Let it be...
I will never understand why people have to flame someone/be a smart ass behind their computer on these forums. You can say whatever you want concerning the original post, but it doesn't change the fact that your response was unwelcome and completely worthless. If the op was wrong, let it be or let an admin reprimand him. I don't see any of you "flamers" with admin status. No matter what you say, your response was worse than the original post.
To the OP, jellybean will get here when it does. Will it get here soon? I hope so! Honestly, no one knows, there are too many factors that will effect the timing of a JB stock rom release. Rest certain that it will arrive eventually.

Just be the bigger person. No need to get all fired up. You will see rude people around here and in every forum. No matter the question rude and smartass comments are not called for.
This is a very new phone and it will likely get 4.1. So I am sure the one you want will end up here it will just take some time.
As for not being a dev thats fine. Look up the source for it and some threads on building AOSP roms and give making an AOSP a try. Who knows maybe you'll like it.
Good luck and dont mind the rude ones here.
Also porting from the Gnex would likely be not an easy task but I am sure he probably has a git for it.
yea actually i have been trying to learn code and script and all the aosp stuff. its crazy hard lol but i know man ur always gonna have haters on here that's for sure. but thanks for the comment.
