Advice for someone who wants to start romming - Epic 4G General

I kinda want to get into developing, but I don't know where to start or how to start. I want to make a personal one until I get some knowledge in case something makes a booboo. Also kinda looking to make a kernal.

I don't mean to be rude but its called Developing... not Romming.... just FYI... good luck dude!!!

Ok man, if I were you I would play around with a linux box to get to know linux commands, then I would play with modding the kernel on that linux computer. I recommend this so you don't build a rom with a how to and. Then put it on your phone and end up with a brick.

Best advice is go buy an evo and dev there

In the near future I'm going to buy a new hard drive for my desktop computer and will install windows 7 and linux(Ubuntu the newest version) so I can duel boot. Is there a suggested linux OS?
Now before you ask "why do you need a new hard drive?" Well that is because somehow I lost it, dont ask me how ha.

I shall try my best to learn!
Can't start until I replace my mobo; but should be done within the next week and a half

Wrong section.
If you want the rom so bad why don't you make one? If you do not have the ability to make a rom then go to work and donate to developers because they don't have to do what they do for free. They could charge, pay pall makes it easy to charge for a download.
I know you are most likely a troll but hopefully others will read this and donate to some developers because they need more whiskey.

Oh don't you go blaming that nonsense on Swype. The OP is obviously stuck in 1996 and gotten hold of a Vibrant from the future and it is his only way of communicating with said future or as we know it, the present.

Unfortunaly bro, gratitude is not appreciated here. However im sure the Devs are grateful for your "thank you". Its those who were not taught respect and want custom roms built only for them who will flame you.

Sent from my HERO200 using xda premium
hey. Not tryin to add fuel to the fire here seeing as we are all here to enhance this great phone. I noticed that Bierce called it impossible, that was said about a lot of things. I'm not doubting you in any way I'm just the type of person who will always give it a try. I'm only 15 and not exactly to good at deving or anything yet, buti am learning. I know that dastin is the expert porter here but his life is hectic right now. I can't promise anything at all, butif someone could point me in the direction of where to learn how to port, I could give it a go. Who knows, maybe I can get it started on the way and one of the more experienced devs can hammer it out. Worth a shot, eh. Sorry for my poor English, I'm still getting used to my to keyboard.
the thing is its not that there impossible it just seems like all he does is scavenge other forums looking for wierd stuff to port like the other day when he was asking someone to do the miui port from the mt3g and he didnt even bother reading the thread because 2 posts down they were complaining that it was just a themed rom and not miui.

ahh I see. I fully understand why you had to "flame" him a little then. I understand why he wants stuff ported but it is important to realize welose people every day. I'd be glad to start work on it if anybody would have interest in assisting
this thread needs to be closed before the flaming gets anyworse.
I wanna say that I've wanted to flame this guy for a long time too.
That is all.

So no data at all? noobnl would be perfect for this. I'm guessing its ril related, or way over my head. But I will take a look at the ROM before I install the new simply ASOP.

Blazer, I always thought patience was a virtue, but we can do it your way too. How's this:
HEY TRAILBLAZER, GET OFF YOUR BUTT AND GET TO WORK!!! YOU SLACK A$$
Or would you prefer:
excuse me, mr. Trailblazer. Can I have another? (If you've ever read Dickens, you'll get it. If not, not so much.)
I literally Laughed out Loud bahaha
Done, and Done
And yeah, i got the reference, haha Nice
But yeah, it's up Go check it out guys, make sure it works P.S: Update to the Trailblazer101 Softkey Themer coming soon!
Haha, sorry guys. I was only trolling. Can't believe this phone got moved to this section with so much activity. You know, I have the HTC Hero, and the first time we got moved to legacy devices there were so many people causing an uproar that they moved us back out. You could try the same and make a thread, and if enough people complain they may move you back out in the open...
Worth a shot anyway.
