Hi folks,
first of all I want to say that this is the very best forum for Android I have ever seen. I've got so much usefull things here! Thank you for this great help.
But now I have a project to solve, where I have to modify an Android device, so that the "Standard"-User has only 1 App to start.
Every other things like settings and so on have to be password protected.
I do not even find a hint where to start investigating for a solution.
How could this be done? Do I have to :
- write a new Launcher?
- write or compile a new kernel?
I do not want you to give me a ready app or kernel or whatever I need.
I would be glad to get a hint where to look or how to start.
I have tried to find a similar thread or topic but I have not found anything.
I tried jailing and similar word in the search without a proper result.
thanks, for reading this
regards

Hello there,
I have been reading some info that Android is able to run on my HD2?
Can anyone give me a link or so where i can find a android build to try?
Been looking on google ofcourse, but know if the random ROMs are safe
Thanks!
Hey,
Most of the info you're looking for is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734335
Another good place to get Android builds is gamesquare.com
Also please note there are 2 Android sub-forums, have a browse through them =]
Hope this helps,
jwchips
Thanks, i didnt see the android sub forums yet
Got it working now, seems allright
What i would like to know, is it possible to run Android only on HD2?
So that u dont have to boot winmo first?
Or can anyone give me some information about a bootloader?
Thanks!
As far as I know and for as much as some people here (Wilco) will flame the hell out of you for asking... nope!
Hehe, well im not always on these forums.
But seems its not possible, i have a bootloader now but it messes up my normal load, well maybe someday ...
Thanks!

This doesnt help me at all. I wanna install gingerbread or honeycomb onto my device. Nothing works.
That link will help you if you read the material there. Just the fact you are asking how to install honeycomb on your device lets us know that you haven't read much on here yet. Most people on this forum are more than ready to help you when you need it, but we aren't going to hold your hand. Read around in here for a few hours and you will get your answers and learn some things to help you out when you run into a problem.

I did. I read it for hrs. I found nothing that helped me. I tried to flash my device or unroot it. The program someone told me to installed dont work and still I cant install non marketplace apps. I created a thread so someone could help not tell me to read. If that was the case I wouldnt of made this thread. I never done this before and I heard about this a couole weeks ago. Ask me anything about car audio n ill give u an answer. This perticular topic... Its like reading chinese so if someone could actually help me. My streak is running 2.2

Search around next time. All these links were found from a simple Google search. Also be more specific in the name of your thread. As in, need help for what? More people are likely to see your thread and reply if they know what it's about before they open it. FYI, porting ROMs is not as easy as just changing some files. What these threads show is the basic way to port a ROM and boot it up. There's a lot of work involved after that to get it optimally running on a device.
Good luck!
Click thanks if I've helped you.
I am triing in rooting few device (lenovo ideatab a1000F, smasung packet neo, vodafone ideos u8150-d. But now, I am getting crazy. I can't find a correct valid guide. I tried kingo, unlock root. IN other site I found seems valid guide, but no link to the rom!
Can someone help me?
I first had a similar impression. If you're not used to the whole android world, it first looks quite confusing. Unclear were to find information, and many are outdated. Discussions and information are mixed in the forums, and most files are released on one-click-hosters.
In the end I found projects like CyanogenMod and OmniRom helpful. Their Wikis are much more clear than the forums to me. Though, once you read some threads on xda, you learn how to extract the important information from there as well.
So don't give up, try to find your way and don't be scared to try things out even if you're not too sure whether it's the right way
thanks

Ok I do expect some people to tell me to keep looking I ask that is your answer don't bother. I have been searching through the development forum and have done countless searches to no avail.
I am trying to create a custom rom for an X96 Android box from the stock rom I simply want to remove the bloat and change the launcher while adding kodi and basically stripping it down to only the apps I need on it. I really ope somebody can point me to a guide or tutorial, I would really appreciate it.
