Custom ROM testing - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have been searching for months on this forum and google for an answer but am getting no where.
I am trying to test ROMs (developing and existing ones available) before flashing to my phone.
I have the SDK emulator installed, but i cannot seem to get a custom rom running.
I have both Windows and Linux platforms. Linux has the mkfs.yaffs2/unyaffs to create the .img files, but none load.
I download the stock PDA from Sams, and extracted the system.img file, added to the ./android/AVD_FOLDER, and this just hangs on the ANDROID screen.
Can someone please assist? Surely there must be away of testing custom ROMs and Kernels prior to flashing? Or do the uber devs just develop direct on the phone and continually flash the phone?

Wrong section, also I think most Rom cooks here continually re flash.

I appreciate this may be the wrong section, all though would be part of test/development for newbies like myself.
There surely must be away?

You aren't reading correctly, I am saying that read how to categorize your thread into sections.
It is written that if you did not get any answer in that thread, then post in Q&A section
What I am trying to make you realize is that this thread doesn't belong to Development Section.
Nothing more than that

Can any dev assist? Is there away of testing custom Roms on the emulator?

Can anyone help??

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877565
This Guide is valid for ANY Rom?
i believe jit is preinstalled in roms
Please, don' t delete this thread, if I have any problem, I ask here.
you can ask as many questions you want in the general forum..this is for custom etc..it is just wrong..

We all were new at some point, but not all of us were starting useless threads instead of reading all there is. For that I can blame him.

This board has some rules, you know, and you're breaking them. Do you really think your questions are important enough? Do you think that outher peoples' questions are not as important? And don't you think that with a few hundred users posting their very_important_questions in a dev section we would never find the threads we want?
GET_LOST. Thank you.
This would be wrong moving to general because rach has is own ROM thread where you can ask there some help or Better use the search ans read every post to find your answer.
Thread Closed.
Another thing, using a [DEV] title just to get attention is not a good idea, think about it for future.(You see what i did here)

If you head on over to the Q&A forums you may get quality answers. ask a Mod to move this since it's not the correct place. A lot of users wont answer threads posted in the wrong section. Good luck

I don't think its signed with developer keys.. or the file(s) you downloaded are corrupted...
Here, take a look at this thread, it should be helpful for you...

Negalite BluRom (Revert STOCK animations)

For some reason I cannot post in the developer of this Rom page (NEGALITE BLUROM), but I cannot find the package for reverting to Sprint Stock animations and font color. The link on NEGALITE'S site is no longer accessible, and I was wondering if anybody could assist me with this!
Thanks so much

Among other things this thread's title is senseless.
Change it to How to access LBF-file or similar.
Anyway:
If you're speaking of a file created with LG Backup app then you can restore its content with this app.

@XDAC1234
Please refrain from opening 2 threads for the same question. You gotta remain patient until someone will show up with help.
@sd_shadow has been kind enough to provide you with the necessary steps and information.
The other thread has been deleted and this one edited. Feel free to change the title, but make sure to stick to the recommendations.
Cheers,
