Hi Bro & Sis,
Frankly speaking,Im bit confused about MIUI & LEWA OS porting status for our x8 ether its agains of XDA Rules or not.As me understand its like this:
-Porting isnt wrong if somebody do it from own rom resource(based own rom).
-Any tutorial & other source is open to anybody to used it as long as proper credit given.
So,me didnt see any wrong of it and me also wondering are there any of our DEV who has a own rom willing to do it if its legal.
Yes,we have many roms(MIUI & LEWA) out there but its based on somebody else rom which is not promising for development(bug fixing,better performance etc) because as I know beside its remain ori bugs its also bring new bugs & little lag of performance.
If anybody has diff point of view please share it to help me be more clear about regarding issue.
THANKS
Please read here for your reference.
Second, Mod roms will now be placed in the X8 Themes & Apps forum The threads will contain in the OP all the relevant permissions/credits along with links to the original rom thread and provided as a cwm update zip. This decision has been made after consultation with RD's/Developers/Senior members and this is there wishes so respect them

Actually the reason why colossus keep on closing such thread in development its because of the failure to comply this rules. I dont see any hard part in following that rule. Let me simplify.
Now you want to mod or port ROM? Here are some checklist.
1. If you will be using a based ROM. Please make sure you have proper permission from the base ROM developer. THIS IS A MUST.
Now you have permission eh?
So you can start modding/porting the ROM.
What if I didnt get permission?
Dont worry you can still mod/port that ROM but please do not share it here. In short it applies only for personal use.
2. If you already done porting then create a thread in X8 Themes & Apps. If your rom becomes popular and you apply your own fix etc. Then please contact the MOD so that the ROM will be moved to Development Section. (Ofcourse it will still undergo screening if that would fit on the Dev Section.
Now guys what is the hard part understanding those Rules implied?
back to bed zZZzzhh
Deedii,
By your statement,me understand this;
Porting rules is a same as modding/theming rules(must be place in x8 theme sec.)
As I know,this rules is for someone who modding/theming based on others rom because ori Dev usually not modding/theming their own rom & open a new thread.
If they did or add/remove something,we can call it a next updates.
Its make sense if someone porting based on others but how about porting based on own roms?
For example;How about if nAa porting MIUI based on his MiniCM?
Should its must place in theme sec too?
BTW,its help me clear a bit thats porting based on somebody else rom is NOT agains XDA rules if you put in theme sec. with a permission & proper credit.thanks
p/s:sorry if disturb u,its 8.00am in my place when I make this thread
i thinks the miui and lewa os remove because some warez or legal issue.
i agree that we can post rom with permission. but i think that miui os and lewa os is consider as theme bercause based from cm 7.1 or 7.2 etc. lasttime i saw ppl post that lewa os is theme ginger dx , meybe they need get permission.
p/s: something i no understands. for example , if some 1 take minicm7 with permission then add tweak like gps tweaks,bravia, other rom lib etc from other people is consider development??? nowday dev is like zoo many cm 7.1, 7.2

Ofcourse it will be considered as development. If you based it with your own ROM then there is no issue since its yours. What are you confused about?

As stated no its not. Instead of posting the whole rom you can actually make a flashable zip on that tweak that you want to put.

Lets have a thread to List broadly ROMs that we have here..
I will start with the ones I have seen here..
we can give pointers on basis of :-
Style:
Stability:
Speed:
Battery:
On the scale of 1-10 , 10 being the highest
Typical Use:
*Special mention :
*offcourse the opinions may vary user to user, but will give us an idea for sure
Ok, Lets start:
#Manilla2d < Is It the Touch Viva 'fame' type?>
#Cube <This is Sure HTC Touch style>
Hello all / I am Bhushan Sohani /
I don't think a lot of people will participate in the thread, since we at this forum strongly discourage rating of ROMs, since each of them is a product of buring a lot of midnight oil (and loss of hair ).
But Again/..
Lets look at it positively..
The ROM Makers can get a good amt of feedback.. and can make their ROMs close to perfection faster.. / like they will have feed of so many testers /
Plus we get a separate thread to praise the smallest detail that ROM makers spend so much time on..
Little bit of analytical angle to it..:|
ROM makers can also benifit at single source, I think..
I do not mean any offence to any of the programers in any way.., I respect all of them..
<And so should everybody .. who posts here !>
Budding programers can also see, what geek-techs prefer, whats liked more, and whats creating issues...
Also..
Some people who have some creativity, but are not so pro at programming, can also give some input here, and pool in together..
Constructive development..
So,
what say fellas?
< Personally I love the work on this forum, and so do people who read/post here, I guess..>
/Once again .. Kudos../

Hello everyone,
G3 is becoming an excellent phone to use with all the development going on...
I see that we have people from everywhere in the world, and many people would like to use ROM's with BASE ROM's from their region...So i with others have decided to make a collection of ROM's with different bases...It will be basically something like my collection but with different base roms, kernels and themes and stuff...
What we require is a team of people.the different work that can be done is:
ROM Development
Kernel Development
Theme Development/Porting
BootAnimation Development/Porting
Android Application Development
If you feel you up for any of the above let us know...
The List of People already involved are as follows:
dharamg3
Stylooo
aarrun
RafayelG
dypmy
cdesai
peldax
"Reserved for later" LOL
nice idea
this would make g3 a gr8 device
all gr8 features on all base roms
good thing to do
Hello all,
We are in need of "Theme porters" and "Android Dev".
If you are interested, PM me or just reply on this thread.

hello I m free nowaday so want to learn some porting and cooking Roms btw I m noways developer if any one guides me would surely appreciate it!!
and is it possible to port salsa sense on froyo?
Ok, let's learn porting and cooking roms.
1. check this tutorial.
2. post in the right section.
3. look here.
4. say thanks.
or, download salsasense by JieeHD which is a mature powerful stable rom already running on the hero and make modifications from there.
since, technically, you can't actually "build" android when many parts of the OS have been removed and replaced with precompiled executable code by HTC, as is the case with that rom.
but still, if you want to modify a rom, and give credit to the original author, for sense roms it is much easier to start with someone else's hard work than to do it all from scratch yourself.
but for learning, I admire your interest. Hopefully you can become a strong dev for the hero!
Devs of MIUI to u8800 who wants create a team or help with the translation to MIUI u8800 ROM ?
I'm tired of see several threads showing the same .Lets all work for the same objective.
I can do turkish translation.
And i just want to clearify something. Making port with using stockwell release doesn't make any progress on our statement. Even i can do that for myself. Point is developing something, fix issues and optimize performance&stability.
@Özgürce thats one of my objective .I dont want only use stockwell script to compile thats to easy , i want fix bugs , create a greater port , include some kernels etc.
Well, as ret4rt's one is the only one that seems to work properly then why don't you all contribute to that one? The post stockwell thread is a perfect place as it's then obvious that this is the place to go for continued development.
We just need a single point to go to for all things Miui, not multiple conflicting ROMs
I think I could do finnish translation.
@langers1972
I think they are both working throught PMs and that thread. Atleast ret4rd shared his WiFi fix there.
Some XDA members and I am working on a CyanogenMod-based Android firmware, AlterOS. It is my sincere request to everyone here to join is in the creation of this firmware. The reason I'm posting here is because I've been active on this forum and have contributed a bit.

I can help by giving some innovative features thought . something like Sony have done. Like stamina mod, xperia theme engine, HTC blink feed, Samsung multi window. Can't help with code.
Sure. We'd love feedback from you and others, but the above incentives are for developers only.
Can we make a OEM rom Sony?
We have kernel sources. ROM related stuff we have xperia e3 stock ROM. Will it possible to port xperia kernel from xperia e3.

He's not talking about porting.............He means build a new ROM from scratch.............With CM as the base
I would recommend a rom name, Boost Rom. Don't know if it has been taken on not. And have the ability for themes as well? I don't know much code but I would like to be of help:0?Of course dev's only but I have some good ideas and I want to learn code. I have started to learn already and I have android studio. So what do you think. Could I give ideas and try to help on not?:|
Good luck anyway:~) Of coarse I will have to learn the basics. But if not I will still hit the thanks button:0 I have always wanted to make roms and be part of something as big as this, please
