Which tools you use to develop your ROMS?

Hi guys, sorry if my question has been asked a zillion times, I can't seem to find the right pointers.
I want to know how do you develop or create your ROMS so that I can create my own and share them with you. I have no real experience yet with WM, but I do have a lot with Linux embedded systems.
I recently ported an embedded Android OS on a micro-controller card for an industrial application (yes Android is getting popular as a good solution for embedded/mobile devices besides phones). I want to start a personal project on my Touch Viva with Android.
So any links or pointers to existing tools or documentation will be appreciated.
I share your enthusiasm with the Touch Viva so anything I learn and develop for it I will share it here.
Thanks.

Oh goody.
Somebody is working on android for Opal.

Hi,
If you want to continue the work of porting Android to Touch viva left by musikmonk (Lost his device ) then i don't think you need to learn rom cooking and stuffs. Rom cooking will only help when you want to make a rom (dual booting) with windows mobile and android. But there is no point to make such rom as of now because Android is not yet ready for daily use.
So i beleive that if you want to continue the project head over to : http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki there you will get all the resource etc. Even you will get support there. And for testing purpose you can always depend on xda.
Hope that helps you.

as just jegan have said
could help the wing linux project
many people will be grateful
and on xda you can recive help with the testing phase

[Q] Wiki Wrapper for Android Apps?

Hi everyone.
I was wondering something - a lot of apps for Android (and iPhone) are basically just wikis with specific information in them, so is there some general Wiki Wrapper out there somewhere that can be used to create an info/guide app?
It's not entirely necessary but it would be nice!
Thanks
SE

Really? There is nothing out there?
It would seem like a sensible app/platform to develop, no?
If I had the ability...

Android App Developing

Recently, I felt inspired and I want to begin to try and create Android Applications, Widgets, and games. However, I have no idea what language it's written in and if there's a specific book that would help me plz link me to it.
Also, what language is it written in? lol
Thnx guys

Probably a good idea to do a search (xda or google) before posting threads like this, which there are already hundreds exactly the same.
Android apps are written in Java. There quite a few threads about android books on this forum.
Start with the sdk documentation and examples here.
Don't expect it to be super easy, there isn't a website, book or tutorial that is going to teach you to write awesome apps in 20mins. It will take time.

[Q] Why "dual boot"?

Noob here - bear with me please.
I've tried searching this forum without success (probably because my questions is too general) and I don't have the patience to scan all 200+ pages.
Recently upgraded from HTC Tilt2 (WM6.5) to a Samsung Focus, customized to Phone7.8. Loved the Hardware, software not so much.
Found there were certain must-have features of WM6.5 that I just couldn't duplicate in WP7+.
So, here I am - I have a "new" HTC HD2 - which seems to have universal glowing reviews. Have spent the last few days installing various needed WM6.5 apps.
I've read a lot here about the ability to dual-boot with WM6.5 and Android. What I don't fully understand is what is it about Android that everyone wants? I know there are thousands (maybe even millions) of Android apps out there. How do you choose?
I would appreciate a few replies what Android apps are "killers" and drove the decision to set up the HD2 for dual-boots.
