ROM Building for Noobs - AT&T LG Optimus G

Now I know I could search Google for this and I very much will but I would like to ask if anyone can give a little insight and some tips on how to go about building a ROM; like where to start and where to look for things to put in the ROM. My goal, if at all achievable, is to learn how to do something like Nottach had done for his ROM, where he give us options to make the ROM like we wanted to, I thought that was pretty awesome!
Any advice would very much be appreciated!

There are some that are more specific to ICS and JB.
I am only hesitant to post others as you may find one that is more suitable to your liking.

Seriously? My God..
Sigh..
Check the android development area for Ace..
Development forum.
Next time search google before posting. This behaviour can get people really irritated.
Hope you're not a troll.
No need to be like that is there mate, not everyone is clued up like you, just because you know things that doesn't make you better than anyone else, get a grip.

Ok bro, maybe they didn't mean to hurt your feelings... But c'mon, don't you think that doing some research in google will provide you with a faster answer than waiting for some replies within the forum???
I've looked on Google, forums are here to discuss things and help eachother, so i don't understand why people take a hissy fit when people ask for a little bit of help and advice, thank you for the apology medic.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
going on your way of thought everyone will be posting questions for links to things 3 clicks away. Really, try google.
Easy keywords will be "cyanogenmod <insert phone model> rom xda-developers". No doubt it will be the top hit.
Ok thanx for you're help

Ok cool bro, np.
Currently there are NO official CM ROMs for our Galaxy ACE. Anyways there are a couple unofficial that you can give a try Here and Here... One of them is not being supported anymore since its creator sold his phone.
Good luck bro... and NO ACE is not the codename for our phone in cyanogenmod.com ... It is COOPER

[ROM][I9100][17/07/2012] 7 comp ROM: one rom to fit all your wishes

Hi,
in next days you will see here a new rom for GS2.
It is based on AOSP, AOKP, CM9 and and other sources + some personnal developpement.
The result is a really usefull and efficient rom that you can use either if you are a developper of an all day base user.
You will find a lot a feature. The rom is fully configurable.
Interested ??
Keep informed
But where is the rom?

You think it is false. Wait and see, you will appreciate. I don't use to speak for nothing. This is true. For those who already know me, you know i won't provided if i don't think everything is perfect. Latests tests are in progress.
I'm looking forward for your rom, malez, and yeah, some screenshots would be good
No point really. Thats what SlimICS Is. Resurection etc.

Good luck with your project but xda doesn't approve placeholders so this thread is about to close unless you provide a download link with a working rom.

Sorry, placeholders are not allowed. Once you have something to download you can open a new thread.

4.1 or 4.2 Rom?

You may not have had such intentions, but it comes off as unappreciative of devs work and pace.

Just wait til more ROMs are released. Then we will see this level of comradeship turn into a mutiny petition signing. People always pick the dev they like the best and make gangs and such.

RootBox 4.2.1 for i717

I noticed that ManelScout4Life seems to be posting nightlies of the Vanilla Rootbox 4.2.1 ROM under the "quincyatt" header on his goo.im section (although they don't appear when you "filter by compatible roms".
I downloaded it, but searched all over the interwebz and couldn't find a damn thing on it...and since I'm not a huge fan of blindly flashing ROM's, I wanted to see if anyone here has taken the plunge and tried to flash it? I know he did the voting thing the other day, but I have no idea how that turned out...so I'm not sure if he's just intentionally not posting it here, or if they're just test builds that aren't ready for full-on testing yet.
Either way - I have read some cool things about RootBox, so I'd love to give it a whirl if anyone else (Manel included?) could confirm that it's not gonna take us to Bricktown or anything. :laugh:
Thanks in advance, hopefully I didn't miss anything previously regarding his ROM's...I'm definitely not trying to go against a contributor's wishes or anything like that.
I'm running Dirty RootBox on my N7 and its great. I haven't heard or seen anything of it for the i717.

Much thanks! I've been itching to get my feet wet, I've gotten good at flashing (yeah yeah, I'm still a noob I know) and have been dying to find somewhere to start. Thanks both of you.

I think it's best to get a basic understanding of the elements you're dealing with development from there.
That's what I did.
But when I tried making my own from scratch I just confused myself.
So I did some tutorials that walked me through EVERYTHING so I could understand how things worked together.

I would honestly save your cash, and just use XDA. It's the best and there are so many tutorials here already. Books are great, I love them. But by the time you spend money on a book and get it, there is always something new out, or an update that will need more explanation.
I myself own a lot of books pertaining to linux/android, but they have all been passed up by a newer version, etc.
If you must, get the basic oreilly books like: understanding the kernel, embedded systems, etc.
That is just my opinion.
