1) read only memory !
2) check the xperia u development section for lots of custom roms ( only 3 or 4 )
4) roms are flashed and apps are installed
5) u will end up sad
7) kernel is a communication between the data and the process ( I read it somewhere bt not sue)

[Q] Xperia Neo L (MT25i) Customization Help ! !

Hello,
I am new member of XDA Developers. I have been using Sony Xperia Neo L (MT25i) for quite some time. By searching on Google I found out about this site. I am really very excited to know that I can all sort of MOD's on my phone.
But I really need to some basic information, as it is my first time.
1) Upside & Downside of Modding
2) What is deference between Custom ROM and Stock ROM ?
3) What is deference between Custom Kernel and Stock Kernel ?
4) How can I make backup of my phone's Stock ROM & Kernel ?
5) Is there any newbie guide available ?
More Questions coming. And I am kinda lost with all of the topics for Neo L Roms and Kernels .
Any Help will be appreciated.
N.B - If you think it will be too much lengthy to explain, you can just reply with link/links. So, I can read and understand them.
Welcome to XDA!!!
First you may wanna read the rules for starting a new thread..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2080250 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464229...
After that read the sticky threads in all the sections..nd sure there are newbie guides available..just search and you'll find them :good:
Stock Rom and Stock Kernel are the ones which Sony gives you when you get the phone...
Custom Roms and Custom Kernels are the ones which the Devs here make...these are the modified ones..with tweaks for better battery, performance..ui changes etc..

For a start learn to root your phone..... install CWM and learn to use that too...
See how other people ended up bricking their phone..... so that you can avoid it..
There are many forums that can teach you to build a ROM....
hi mate thanks for replying and i already rooted my phone and i have cwm recovery please show me a easy to cook a rom thankss
The first and best suggestion I can give is use the search feature of the site, and in general search for information. Although I'll provide you with a few links, they may not provide you with all the information you need . Below are a few links to get you started .
Complete Android ROM development and essential tutorials

This last one has some good information. But be careful because it is Device Specific.
