Hello all,
I am just getting into development stuff and i thought of developing or porting a rom for a tablet i own i.e Tab 3 7' (SM-T211)
the problem is, there are roms but not for this particular model (due to this being a wifi + gsm model)
so the thing is
i know basic files which we need while porting
but the thing is, all the roms which are available, doesnt have the calling feature (GSM) so sim card is not detected in the rom which i port
so i asked few devs, they said you gotta mod or edit, policy framework.jar and stuff
my question is
what are those particulars stuff we required to edit or mod to get gsm thing to work, can anyone push me in a particular direction ?
and my next project after this (if its a success ) would be to develop a kitkat rom for this tab
so please guide me in a direction so that i can try my talent
Thank you so much
TO THE MODS : IF THIS THING IS IN WRONG SECTION, THEN I AM REALLY VERY SORRY

Okay so after partially pestering these forums, The "Hear the Echo" community managed to root the Kyocera Echo (THANK GOD) thanks to Revolutionary's zergRush! Now we have another set of steps that we need to do in order to fully bring this phone up to par. We need:
1. Someone to help us map out the keys to our recovery image (or just build us one if you know how, please and thank you )
-One of HTE's greatest members Saridnour (also a member of XDA) has put all he has into the site, from trying his hardest at porting a recovery image (or building one, I dont quite know), to simplifying zergRush's rooting script by building a program that did the rooting for us! HTE owes him a debt of gratitude, and if you would like to donate to him, please do so at the HTE site here. The Donate button is in his signature! But on to what we need, we need someone to map out the recovery keys! He has the Recovery image built, but it will only boot from fastboot and he cannot navigate to the various options because the key mapping isnt right. Does anyone have an answer to this?
2. Porting Sense to Gingerbread
-everyone loves the HTC sense UI (3.0+), and I was wondering how would I go about porting that to the 2.3.4 GB Echo. Better yet, is it even possible? I would like to have the UI down packed, plus, if possible, port the New Beats Audio to it, I think that it is really awesome!
3. Building CM7
-How would I go about building a CM7.1 nightly for the phone?
4. Building MIUI
-This phone has 1 GB Ram and 1 GB Rom, I know that it is more than capable of RUNNING MIUI, but can I build it, or is MIUI the only one that can build it for us?
5. Building a Custom Kernel
-This phone's battery is horrible, how can I build a kernel that will give it better battery life?
Please know that this phone is now rooted, so ALL of this is possible, we are seriously in need of some help, it is a lot of talent on the site, we just need some help being pointed in the right direction. Please and thank you for all your comments in advance.
Thanks,

Any experts here who can guide us to find a custom rom and guide that will suit us.
we have some how managed to root our device.
Any help mates?
moving to general section
If you guys have rooted it then you should also be able to port a Rom as well. There are guides to porting generic Roms, as well as specific guides for CM7/9/10 and certain versions of MIUI.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
You can try this one, but there are others as well if you need them. Odds are you guys will have to put in the work yourselves because if it's not a popular phone devs aren't going to take the time to do a one-off port. That said, if you do it yourself you'll learn a lot and be able to bring over any Rom you like.
Hello,
I am new here, please forgive me, if this thread is in wrong section.
Moderators may move it to appropriate section.
I have a few doubts before I get into Android Development. (both in making apps, developing custom roms) I just want to know the Android inside out.
Here are my doubts :
# Does custom ROMs help in getting more RAM, or what's the best advantages (other than they give root level access)
# Are there any free tutorials (preferably video tutorials) for developing custom roms and learn android development?
# I have Galaxy S 5302, if I root it or say upgrade it to Android 4.0 or to Jelly Bean, would it affect the performance? If yes, then how?
# Why do sometimes, device bricks on rooting?
EDIT : I have experience with C/C++ programming, and currently learning JAVA.
I just installed the ADT but it's not showing any option to start Android Application Development.

Hello, I have ported android 4.4.4 to the galaxy player 4.2 via the Android Kitchen and i need help fixing some problems. Right now the main issue is that after flashing the ROM the device wont boot..... I know its a big problem but it'd be cool to get this thing working so i figured i should ask. I've been searching Google for the last 2 hours but I've came up short. If you help me then I'll be more than glad to give u props in the development thread for this project once its finished.
Ok well i decided not to use the kitchen to port kitkat because it isnt a great idea so i have decided to port it the way dragonizer told me too(link to guide below). But the thing is is theat i need help getting the files i need. I have been constantly been searching for files for 2 days so far and have barely made a dent. I have the repositories i need but the rest of the files i am asking for help to find. Now i wil post the file names of the ones i find when i find them. Thanks for the help and if you have any questions for me on the project or will like to become a contributor to the project then pm me and we can get this thing made.

dude if you need a tester or anything i would be glad to help i have also tried to port cm 11 kitkat to my device with no success but i would like to help get it made
also i think you need to create a boot image like in the cm 11 builds for the gp 3.6
Hello. I recently got an m8 so i was wondering if there were any custom roms that keep the gesture when the phone is locked but also gives vanilla android experience. Also can you list a couple of good roms to use. Thanks
Witch variant HTC ONE M8 ?
We can assume it's the At&t variant cause your asking in the At&t
Q&A ,Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Normally I would offer assistance but you don't have a problem to solve cause your answer lies within the Development section
Enter a Rom thread and if what you read is what you think you might like than give it a try.
Please do yourself a favour and make a backup before you do anything ?
