Been Modding for a while. Galaxy S, HTC, etc. Just got a Note from a friend and this is the only phone I've seen a dev section and "original" what's the difference? I don't want to end up with a fancy brick...

The second thread in the original dev section explains this.

The original Dev section is for development related items and topics that are original work. Not ported roms, re-baked parts etc.
You would find a rom here made from source, such as cyanogenmod, or perhaps an original kernel. Everything else is in the regular Dev section....g

What is the best rom to use on the galaxy note i717?
Thanks
That is personal preference. Everyone here has their favorite(s) but only you can decide what you like. Check out the development section and read what each rom is about. Then like they all say, read them again.
If you search the forums I think this topic is already floating around somewhere.

I wish there was a way to censor this question.
Hi. I'm new to EVO LTE and I kinda look for this answer but couldn't quite find it. Why is there 2 development for EVO LTE?
I have the original black EVO. Do I use the original EVO development? Or does it matter what I use? Thank you in advance.

Original development is for thing like root methods etc., development is for roms and mods based off of stock things.
"We're coming from a pure power source"
There's a sticky at the top of the original development forum that explains everything

It's not a dumb question, it's a dumb system. To have these two development sections separated is just plain dumb. A better division would be roms separate from rooting methods or such. But to distinguish between some roms as being original and some not seems to be very inconsistent. This separated development sections started with the Samsung threads and they can keep it. Give us HTC guys back our single development thread.

Its supposed to be a way to distinguish ROMS & other projects that have significant original work being done from those that are simply modified stock.

But most of the roms in the original development section are just heavily themed and nothing else. Nothing groundbreaking. If you go with the original intent of the separation of development threads than only CM10 would be in that thread,
There's plenty of original development done in those roms/ect

I recently purchased the galaxy s3 and am quite happy with it, put adw launcher pro made a few tweaks got the jellybean update and am satisfied with everything it does.
My question is what is the need for flashing new Roms or rooting the device? What is the purpose and benefits?
I'm new to all of this and would love some briefing!

You would be better off asking here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1708
This forum is for International Galaxy S3 I9300, not I535 Verizon. Anything you do from these forums can brick your device. Good luck and welcome aboard!
I appreciate the reply, I tried re posting this post on that thread but it said the forum is closed. Do not many have the samsung gs3 for Verizon?

Fact is advice or firmware from this forum may brick a phone that is not a I9300 .

Android development is TW ROMs and original is AOSP ROMs

TW development is for modding your stock touch wiz ROM basically.
AOSP stands for Android Open Source Project and that sub is for things related to modding custom ROMs.

TW = Touch Wiz. It's the skin that samsung puts on its phones. ROMs that are based off of it are in the "S 4 Android Development" forum
The AOSP ROMs are what google intended for its users to see. ROMs based off of it are in the "Original Development" forum.

ahh! got it. Thank you!
In other device sections the non original section is also used for ROMs that are kangs or tweaked versions of released original roms. Basically not just touchwiz

Original dev is for any software which incorporates significant original work. Non original dev is for software in which the author incorporates only minor changes.
I understand it but it drives me insane. hated the day they started that

NO!
The answer is in the stickies on top of both sections
Original means it was written by the developers and offers something unique.
Any AOSP clone or CM clone goes in regular development.
Only the original CM, AOSP, AOKP, PA, MIUI releases go in Original development
And OP:
Please read forum rules before posting
Questions and help issues go in Q&A and Help sections

Its still dumb. Its annoying enough trying to find a rom that works with the cryptic thread titles without having to look in two seperate forums IMO.

Why it was done was to reward developers and teams who spent weeks writing 1000's of lines of code to build a unique ROM or bring one to that particular device. It separates those particular ROMs and should provide a higher end of user and more professional environment for the developers. This is XDA-DEVELOPERS.com so we pool the developers' needs and requests and do the best to provide the environment they are looking for. Many are under the false assumption this is a support site.
Thanks I sort of lf get it out now. One is just to modbthe touch wiz while the other one is for like aokp cm and other roms right?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
its not a support site, what kind of site is it? It has the makings of a support site, Downloads, FAQ, Q&A, Solutions to problems. Just a friendly inquiry.
Guys, it feels so good to be back to XDA. I was active here back in 2008 during Windows 6.5 days. I'm a little confused here so would like to know what actually is the difference between "AT&T HTC One Android Development" and AT&T HTC One Original Android Development" forum ?
thanks in advance
When I came back from a hiatus I was confused about this as well. From what I can tell Stock Roms and those based on Sense go in the standard development thread, Roms like CM and kernels go to Original thread.

Close, but not exactly. Literally, only "original" work goes in Original forum. This means no rebakes, repacks, slightly altered mods, conglomerate ROMs, etc. Only ROMs and kernels and mods that are truly unique personal original development work... meaning built from source, with your own unique source (linked to GitHub etc) included.

Ooooooooh. Thanks for clearing that up for me too. I was thinking maybe it was the development section for threads pre/just after device launch or something.
