I am trying to get into android development and things have gone pretty well so far. The only roadblock I have so far is where do people get roms to start from.
For example if I wanted to start working on a touch Wiz based rom, because none of it is open source where do I start?
Any insight on this would be helpful, thank you ahead of time

You mean stock roms? There's a few sites available about that

No, I mean roms to start building off of. Most developers will post "this is a touch Wiz based rom" or "this rom is based off of cm11" etc.
I have the source for cm, and have been playing with it, but if I wanted to build a tw based rom I don't know where to start.

If you're going to use someone's work like different mods and such always ask permission they will usually say yes if you give a thanks and post on your op from whom you got it from. .. always nice to ask first before kanging ...if it's only for your use no big deal .. but if you post it here ask first to be nice ...it will stop a lot of fighting and such ....

That's awesome thank you. I guess I was just expecting a source repository somewhere. I just have a bit more learning to do before I get started doing anything serious.
Also, thank you for the advice when it comes to asking permission to use other people's work. I certainly don't want to go around pissing off the other developers.

As current roms stand there are no AOSP roms out at the moment . But also bare in mind root status is still very new , if anything still in its infancy . Give it time and before you know it AOSP will be ready for flashing . I know cyanogenmod was ported to the Sensation already , so I dont think EVO3D will be to far off from that . Some Devs have had roms on standby waiting for root to hit but never had a device to test stability on (even though there were s-off devices running around in the wild) . Like I said give it more time , heck the development thread has already started up with kernal threads and rom threads . The fun is just now begining so kick back and enjoy the ride
I'm not trying to be rude but there's a fee threads on this already.
But yeah first I heard it would be ported and cyanogen wouldn't officially support it then I heard that toastch is working on it. So I can't wait either.

The only mention I have seen from a Dev for AOSP is....

Hello everyone, welcome to viperROM!
Current Dev Plan:
RC1.3 will have the ability to go "Non-Sense" using my script to remove Sense apps in place of AOSP apps. viperROM Control Script to manage this as well as many other features!
RC2 is going to be a completely reworked base. I won't go into much detail yet, but it's going to be THE FASTEST E3D Sense ROM.
No ETA on any of these but I just thought I would share with you guys my plans at the moment. I will also get some theming work started in one of these upcoming builds.

I should mention it is currently RC1.2
Supra ROM is the closest to AOSP we got now. Its like AOSP and Sense combined

That was my entertainment everyday until we got S-OFF and root.
I haven't seen this question so if its floating around somewhere, my bad...but What is the BEST ROM out there right now for the Galaxy Note i717 in your opinion? I would prefer somebody answer this that has tested multiple ROMs on this device. I am currently on OnlyOne HYFR B4 but am thinking about switching it up. Even if I do NOT end up switching, I am still interested in your opinions on your ROM and why you feel it is the best! (best for you) Thank You All!

Instead of posting that, you should have reported the post... Like i just did.
I see you're on tapatalk, so am i, just press on the post like you were going to quote it, hit more, then report.
You can't expect the mods to be everywhere all the time, it's a big help if users who know the rules to report posts.
Well Studa you said all that needs to be said.

Hmm....since there are many customs ROMs out there, I would like to ask for your opinion and so I make a poll for reference to the people who cannot decide which one to flash with.
Ok, so here comes the poll, let's start with the 3 most popular stock custom ROMs, which one do you guys like most?

They released updated versions recently Choose your favorite one and better tell me WHY!
WARNING! THE ABOVE ROMS CAN ONLY BE FLASHED INTO S5830, NOT OTHERS! NOT S5830i.......etc!
fight-offs ?, there isnt any fights out there, all of the custom roms are different and speciall on their own.What may be the greatest rom for someone it can be the worse to someone else, so stop comparing them
Yo!.. I vote for Stocklite cause the battery and functionality(stability) is in perfect balance for me
NO no no. close this thread please.

Why do u want to create a thread just to know which rom suits which user?

lol what makes you think that those are the most popular ?
those roms are roms which you like not everyone
according to me the best roms are not listed
what does that mean ?
that means each user has different taste
so what does that mean ????
that means best roms dont exist

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for a good custom rom for my girl GT-5839i.-
Looking for ICS ou JB, preferably CM rom.
Can someone help me with some lights.
I'm quite experiente with Huawei phones but I'm finding a bit complicated dealing with this Samsung especially because of the fórum organization and afraid to mess the phone due to compatibility issues.
Thanks in advance.
Actually, there is no ICS/JB rom for our ace-i, but you can try CyanogenMod 7.2 rom of biel, which you can find here..
And if you want to see all the rom, search in development section.
Thanks a lot.
It's a shame no real dev work being done for this phone
Actually, it's not easy, because we don't have gpu sources, however there is a CM9.1 rom, but very laggy.

Dude go buy a new phone then, we didn't tell you to buy it. I can't believe you just said no real work done. As all devs are trying they're hardest.(especially biel and his team and sniper killer) I think you should get you lazy as* off that couch and make your own custom rom if all your gonna do is complain

How will you define real development work?
This has been said several times that instead of bashing and saying someone sucks, you should see how hard it is and mostly people aren't paid for doing this. You should be grateful to have this much, many devices don't even have this much development.

Other devs are also working hard
And as a common misconception, making custom ROM, or theme or mod isn't development
Just telling you, I mean no disrespect to anyone
Oh, thanks for telling me that!
Biel took almost an year for Cm7, he even bought our phone just for developing. Even I, that don't know much about android, am learning and trying to help. How can you simply spit on everyone's work?

Here's a couple of posts from the other thread you created to remind you why ROM comparisons are not allowed.
Your first post asked about JB, this one about ICS. Two different animals. On ICS we have many great fully functioning stable ROMs it boils down to the level of bloat you want removed for you, the theming, and the amount of tweaking and optimization. The leanest one that still maintains a fully functional sense is the one I'm using the Energy ROM, however, it's dated and the dev indicated last week that he'd be updating soon. SuperAfnan has a couple of outstanding ROMs both themed and stock. The ARHD ROM was updated yesterday and is totally stock with tweaks, it's probably the closest to the stock factory ROM. Then if you can live with a few minor bugs involving Bluetooth and tethering, the Viper Amaze is one of the most heavily tweaked, optimized, and full featured ROMs for our device, and it's sense 4 not 3.6 like the rest. I hope this helps.

ROM comparison threads are not allowed. You need to test them out and find one that works for you by yourself. Please read the threads instead of asking because ROMS are subjective.
Please do not take developer work for granted.
As Odysseus1962 stated there's so l many to choose from and he has already provided you with information so please just read the ROM threads. I'll give you a hint, there's a "broken" / "not working" section on the ROM threads so you can find bugs accordingly. Ones without it are usually more-or-less problem free.

Some people never learn! I guess it's time for TonyStarks to step in yet again!
Please stop spamming for suggestions on ROMs and do some searching. Try some out for yourself.
Please take a moment and read through the XDA rules, before you open more threads.
