I have seen the work of many web developers is the widely recognized. I have found that while there are developers who are porting applications Longest and giving a good finish to your roms. There are others who are dedicated to copy and paste into your roms, what they worked an. and these are not given due recognition.
They use a rom base and engaged in copying the improvements that an other hard-working and only the "included" in their rom and over asking for donations for his "work".
You may have noticed that there are certain periods where the Rom are in a state where there are no more updates. this is because they no longer have to copy the other roms. I cite as an example the user (chikencito12 with Xperia rom v5.0 S-ing "Galaxy" 2.3.7) and others.
As for me and I'll have a paypal account, and makes a donation to this developer Achotjan and if developing a rom and not just copying. (ported to xperia xperia x10 s on your base and Cyanogen/freexperia rom mod) there will be many who will be copying your "port" lock screen xperia s.
I ask the moderator due apologies. if I'm missing the rules please let me know.

so here we go, i proudly present: the VillainROM Kitchen!
i wrote this up completely from scratch, so please be gentle when it isn't perfect at the beginning :roll:
also we were not able to test every rom combination, as there are millions of different roms possible...
please note the faq link on the lower right side. if any questions arise pleask them here, i will update the faq from time to time.
final note: i'd like to emphasize that i created this kitchen myself, and it was a buttload of work. however i did NOT create the rom or any of the apps or modifications that come with it (with the exception of minor fixes or changes). nathan is and will be the rom developer/maintainer, and there are other parts created by other people, for example the themes. i don't want to start a long list of thanks and credits, and i take care not to include warez. there are several other reasons why something should or should not be included in the kitchen, so if you feel that your app is used here without permission or credit please contact me. also let me know if you'd like to contribute, be it in form of a simple bootscreen or a great app...
you find the kitchen at http://www.villainrom.co.uk/kitchen/ or in the rom section of the villainrom board.
now have fun with the kitchen!
Hi for all noobs/about to donate folk can you let us know exactly what a kitchen is please.
you can select options you want to include, for example apps or themes. then our kitchen will create the rom for you, you download and flash it. no need to figure out what adb is and how to remove or add stuff to the rom. check the link, it should be self explanatory!
also you can create a keyboard layout config file if you are using villain5.2 or other roms with the hacked keyboard from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
the keyboard layout feature is free to all members of villainrom.co.uk btw.

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.

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
For example;How about if nAa porting MIUI based on his MiniCM?

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.

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
