I have a bootable cm7 port, and I need a experienced porter/kernel dev to take it over or help me get working. Right now there is no usb, sound or network. So please pm me for the download link. We need to get cm7 up and running.
its already in the works.
Just leave it alone and let the devs get it working.
So do you have touch input working? As far as I know none of the others have that working.
You might want to post it up with the download link in the dev section. You might also want to pm some of the dev's making senseless roms they have been taking out sense stuff and adding aosp stuff lately, so they might know what needs to be in there to make it work.

No you DO NOT want to do this.
This doesn't belong in the Development section and to tell you the truth shouldn't even be in this section. You should of done a search and seen there's already a thread on this. You don't even have the newest version. There's already one with touchscreen and Sound working and it boots.
JUST LET THE REAL DEVS DO WHAT THERE SUPPOSED TO AND WAIT
i love all the thread police here. it makes my day.

He is simply stating not to post again bc many have attempted to get help here and toast is already working on it, one of thee most respected developers on xda, don't post on on the dev section bc we all know he is working on it and he'll get it done all we need is patience

Dude what do you think the development section is for? Maybe developing a rom possibly? Look at the op's join date 2007, I highly doubt he is noob, which would make me assume this is a real trying to recruit people to work on this.
Also it is better to have more people working on something than just one. If only one person had worked on our root we might still only have temp root now. revolutionary didn't just stop because they heard somebody else was working on root.

The OP is actually smart and not listened to whoever it was that suggested it.
I agree with JOEY_UFC. it does not belong in development.
yes touch is working. I posted in the right section and im not going to leave it alone. So if you dont want the help get out of my post.
If everyone stopped working on something because someone else was working on it, where would we be?

Why are you knocking him for trying it on his own? Every Dev has to start somewhere. If he wants to attempt to learn, people should be encouraging him not telling him to leave it alone for the "real" devs. When I ported clockwork recovery to the dell streak 7 I knew nothing about Linux or android development , but the community helped me learn the ropes and encouraged me to get it done, Not discouraged me telling me to leave it alone and wait for a more experienced Dev to get it working.

Um, so what if somewhat is already working on it? For all we know this guy may be more talented than Toastcfh. Perhaps he can find the solution to something that Toast cannot figure out... Bottom line, Android development is a collaboration and we shouldn't scold people for trying to help, develop, and contribute.

SMH. No wonder we have the worst forum on xda.
i think the OP should keep up the good work. since when was it a rule that a specific dev can work on CM7 and no one else. XDA is supposed to be about helping others when help is needed, not scolding people and trying to break their spirits. all the OP is doing is asking for a little help, and like someone previously stated, he may have found/fixed something that the other devs working on CM7 missed
This forum should just get rid of post counts. People feel the need to talk when they don't have to, leading to a few spamming power users that are dicks/trolls that run the show.
Why do dudes in this forum act the way they do. Makes people not want to ask for help. Dude keep doing what your doing man. Knowledge and Fadakar I'm with you. Knowledge your so right man never seen this going on in the hero forum.

Hello Fellow XDA'ers
Let me start by saying that I am by no means a dev. I have taken it upon myself to learn how to theme. This will take me some time as I am just learning, am working 1 full time job and 2 part time jobs and I also have a 2 year old at home. So please do not ask for ETA's. I will try to release themes in stages. Please look at the poll attached to this thread as it will help me decide what colors to start with. Also iff you have any apps you would like to see themed please leave a comment in this thread of that app you would like to see themed. FYI first theme I will come up with will be bluish in color as blue is my favorite color After that I will start with the #1 color in the post poll and work my way down the list.
I am currently running alien ROM on my phone so I will be using that ROM as a base. If anyone would like to help please let me know. REally need someone who is great at photoshop or GIMP. Also will need tester's also.
Thank you in advance. I will help test...might want to look at homebase 2.1 with 4.2 update as the base it has been really stable for me..
THIS is the way the dev forum should be. "I don't see what I want so I'm gonna make it myself!" instead of whining that less than ten people are working on useless 'upgrades.'
I'm more than competent in Photoshop and I'd be willing to test for you. I'm also familiar with the Android system having messed up a few for myself. I like blue as well.
Good deal. I'll help you test it out.

Even though Alien is nice, it's a few updates behind and dead (most likely forever). Might I suggest Yay's 2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7-CM Deodex. Either way I'll be happy to test.

Finally had sometime to sit down and study. This seems easier them I originally thought it would be. I am going to start writing up a plan of attack for this project.
Also if people could start replying with what they look for in a theme (i.e. battery meter, transparent notification bar, themed apps, etc). If you want themed apps please list what apps.

So start looking at performance tweaks and such, and if you are adding some stuff to pre-compiled APKs then look into smali and the tools you need to use to manipulate it.

Oh boy...I just love it when people start saying
"I'm building a ROM", "I'm doing dev work", "I want to be a recognized developer"
Then I make suggestions and I get "That's too hard", "Do you have a download link" "Cn u teac me hw mak a custm kernel?"
Yet they are totally unwilling to actually invest some time into these things and LEARN it.
Guy's Rome wasn't built in a day, and your ROM isn't going to be either. Look around, read, SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH. Download other people's stuff not just to Kang it, rename/re-post it under your name, but to LEARN, to figure out how it works, so you can UNDERSTAND. This isn't like a store, where you walk in and go "I want one of those, and I'll take one of them, and please get me that, where can I find this, etc, etc." Make little modifications, tweaks on top of tweaks, and keep doing that until it's soemthing new, soemthing different, and THEN post it. But please don't limit yourself, to what is "Easy" or "Comfortable", it's not the way to get anywhere with real development work, much less in life. Put some time into it, and some effort. I really do wish you all luck, but you guys have to stop looking for the easy way to get some quick credit.

@OP I know of zero performance modifications that you can do in XML, and if you are looking to use someone else's work and use that then start searching and make sure you ask before you use it.

Who are you referring it to? I cooked a rom and I think that I have made the rom. Of you don't have anything to help me then please don't comment. I don't understand smali but I know how to read tutorials and add more features in the rom by smali editing like swipe to remove, 14 toggle etc.

He was being helpful, he is bringing up a attitude that is rampant here on XDA, namely the "cooking" of ROMs. There are WAY too many people who just cook a ROM in a kitchen and claim to have "developed" it. No, you just re-packaged somebody's work, it's not the same thing. I'm not saying it's useless, but it causes way to many "developer" wanna-be's that just aren't interested in actually learning something. Up above we posted suggestions and you responded with

That creates the impression that you aren't wanting to try any other methods for creating ROMs. If you were trying to say that you don't know smali, then maybe you should have said something like,

This is very true, I'm new to porting and I'm starting with porting so I can learn the ins and outs of a rom so at a later time I can learn to develop, even in porting I've had to back smali and make some edits to get things working so sooner or later you will have to as well.. I'm currently reading a begginers guide on java for android.. Google is my best friend and I'm trying to learn as much as I can because I have an idea of my 'ideal' rom.. I can't wait for someone else to do it so I can port it and I know it will never be the way I want.. I'm doing it mainly for myself and I hope one day I can share with others

Best thing to do is get on the good side of a dev and ask them to teach you, I had great help from some of the best devs on XDA, but as above its not something you can just learn easily, I already had a pretty good knowledge of Java and XMLs etc before i got a smart phone lol, If you stick to it then you should get somewhere, Java is a pain in the ass though, editing .smalis is probably the hardest thing for a new dev

Hello. I would appreciate it if someone would point me in the right direction of where to go to learn (from the very beginning) how to develop ROMs for the Rezound or even just AOSP. I am new to coding but I am willing to learn and have lots of time to put into it. I want to help contribute to the development of the Rezound and get us out of this lull. :good:

Thanks for the link, kzoodroid. Been thinking about possibly starting up ROM'ing for a bit now, just never knew where to start.
I haven't had any code projects to work on since I got out of college for summer break... weird that I'm slightly itching to code lol.
Working on a ROM using the kitchen. It's really good for showing you a lot of things you need to do for basics (deodexing, zipaligning, etc.) Just remember that it is "basic" and you can't completely construct a ROM just using the kitchen. Great way to get started :good:

I want to start win the graphics because you can't mess too much up playing with graphics and I will get the feel of. Where things are located. I think I am goin to start from the newest ics leak stock. And then move to the official ota when it comes out. Sound like a good plan?

Awesome! Ha. I'm gonna look for the kitchen tonight when I get out of work... I think it's a few steps inside my back door. I should be able to find it just fine
Also... I if anyone knows of any straight to the point videos about how the kitchen works or basic ROM building, please post links. Or make one! That would be great too

Building Sense based ROMs using dsixda's kitchen is pretty straight forawrd, hardest part was seting it up to run on a windows pc. You pretty much just end up with a deodexed, zipaligned ROM. I haven't done this with my Rezound but have built ones for the Incredible and Eris. You can also de-sense ROMs easily witht his too. Its a good tool to learn teh basics. The next step up is to learn to compile from source or to port over a ROM from another device.

Guide to Porting (Droid Incredible thread so not sure if its the same for the Rezound but it will give you an idea)

Guide to decompiling and compiling using baksmali and smali (need to know this to modify files without creating a custom ROM)

Still looking for video breakdown of essentials if anyone has some. It's not that I can't do it myself, I just like being visually showed how to do things when I start something new. Thanks

You can't really be shown how to make a ROM. Every Rom is different, and requires different steps.
Yeah I understand that but I mean like for finding where things are located and what some important things do

theres no shortcut to learning how to make roms
id say a large portion of rom devs started out by theming...helps to learn the files structures and what does what...as well as becoming familiar w/ apktool, smali, etc
biggest lesson that few seem to hit out the park on the first try? credit
if using other peoples stuff, make sure to credit them properly :good:
What do people use as a base for the sense 4 roms?
HTC REZOUND HELP THREAD
This thread was created for the sole purpose to help any and all in need of assistance with their Rezound be it bricking, rooting, etc. Any question you may have related to your Rezound can be posted here whether you feel it is dumb or not. This thread is to be a source of answers and I DO tolerate repeated questions. I want this to be a friendly environment with full intent on helping anyone within the Rezound community. I do not tolerate flaming or trolling of any kind and I will see to it personally that such offenders will be removed/banned from this thread.
So you are here for answers? We are here to help!Our Rezound community is full of well educated individuals who are more than happy to assist you with any Rezound objective you wish to accomplish. You need only ask. Keep in mind that asking within the thread allows everyone to see your question where as sending a pm limits you to the knowledge of one specific individual.
When you have questions about anything, one of us is bound to have an answer. We help people no matter the question, status, or experience.
The only stupid question, is a question that is not asked.
This OP will be modified over time to include FAQ's and links to other helpful materials.

See, this is how it is supposed to be. Just spent about 20 minutes with the op, holding my hand through setting up system tuner pro while he's helping 2 others on gtalk at the same time. I'm glad to see that, like myself, others are still willing to help people out. Huge thanks bro.
We're not as evil on the rezound forum as people think, we are just misunderstood

I have a gtalk too.
Maybe you should make a list of people that are available to consult and have it stickied so people go there first instead of posting another thread. It's probably faster to get help from someone in gtalk anyway.

I decided to make a post as I was having a flood of people requesting help so..........
1) I don't mind helping people, I love helping but please understand I have things I need to do
2) I am really good at helping people, As there are many roms, tweaks, settings, I cannot know everything about every rom, tweak and settings
3) I only help over Gtalk, Its quicker and it saves space on the XDA servers.
4)My Gtalk status is a good indication whether I am able to help.
5)My Gtalk is [email protected]
I am happy to help out as much as I can. If its something that might take awhile, let me know. We can plan a certain time to do it.
That is all, I am ending my rant now.
Edit: If for some reason I am not available dyetheskin is willing to help, please respect him the same way. PM him for his gtalk acct.

You are one of the last good members willing to give up you personal time for others. thank you for helping the community.
please don't PM me for help, thank you.
i mean uh what?
Look, this is not what I meant by posting this thread. I can't in good faith just let anyone start giving help to other. I had a similar case a while back where someone else told the person to relock the bootloader and he had an eng Hboot. I am sorry, this is not meant to be a sign up list or anything like that. I have interacted with dyetheskin before and have seen his abilities. I am asking that people please not post here unless it is a request for help or you have a quick question.

I guess no help squad then. I'll just continue helping people anyway.
I didnt mean it to be that way. I just never meant it to turn into this. This was me offering people who needed help, help. I think its awesome that others willing to help. If you can help them then do so. Im not saying dont.

I may end up throwing an A-Team together to help others. So many people need help and I am only one person. Maybe 3 or 4 guys that will go above and beyond to help others. I have had several people offer to help, why not utilize the people offering to help. Stay tuned.
Apophis, could you do a couple of screen snots of how you have Dsb's kernel set up in syst tuner? Thanks in advance.

As of right now, i have 3 others that I trust to help others. You all have to realize that some times I get asked questions in which if I were wrong I could damage the phone. When I talk about helping others I try to provide 100% accurate info. I would also want anyone else that I have to do the same.

You could make it the people you trust and other people would need to be qualified like a recognized contributor or something. I understand what you mean when you say it can be dangerous but I really think with the right people that having a group or list of people you can contact for help would really benefit the rezound community and maybe inspire other device communities to do the same.
