Your best bet is to use a kitchen if one exists or hope somebody makes a up-to-date one.

Seems to be much to read
Thx for your links and help

it's funny to play like this, doesn't need to know much, just download some rom, extract and copy-paste
i'm mixing MIUI and CM7

Wp7

Can anyone provide me windows phone 7 ringtones and especially the pure one? Will be much help!!!

If you can't find it online then you could always download a ROM that has it & grab it from the ROM. Just go to system/media/audio/ringtones to grab the file. Then place it in the same file of the ROM your using.

thanks any suggestion for the ROM?

Great thread title, Very descriptive of the topic.
Couldn't you have used something more logical, like "WP7 Ringtones" ??

Sorry but I never liked w7 nor have I ever flashed it to any of my phones so i really wouldn't have the faintest idea. The best advise I can give is for you to ask this question in the winmo7 Q&A section found here. "TheATHEiST" is right though. If you ask this question in that thread i would address is so that people have an idea of what your question is about. This should get you more attention which could lead to more feedback.

I wanna start developing

I have noticed a lot of stickies and whatnot on here and I have decided that I want to start building ROMS, Kernals, and themes. Can anyone guide me to a really good detailed guide where I can start?

Here's one Lithid put me on a while back, it's more about general android rom cooking
http://htcpedia.com/forum/htc-hero-android-development/1404-[howto]-rom-cooking.html
Here's another one I found called "Porting Sense to other Sense Devices", you might find it useful too

Go to evo3d themes section and look at stickies. One of the best guides on here. It has some of the best themers giving guides and sharing knowledge.

Thank you papa Smurf, I'll check that forum out!

Dive in and play with it...have a copy of a rom for testing purposes only and dev away!

My dream..!!!

Hi everyone, i am a wildfire user and i love my phone
I have a dream but i don,t know how to make it True..
have anyone help me out about how can i do make it true???
My dream is
A Sense 2.1 complete and stable Rom with 2.3.7 android os for Wildfire..
problems is that i am not a developer just have a technical sense but really Noob as a rom developer :silly:
I need your help, i have taken Oath with myself that i will complete it at any cost.. :victory:
Please somebody help me how it will be done..
Really thankful to the guy who resolve my problem :good::laugh:

I think it would be better if you write this in the Wildfire-general forum but to return to the topic:
1st: I love the Sense style too.
2nd: There's also a thread with a ROM which is sense based (Sense 2.1):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631996
And there wouldn't be be a Sense-based ROM with Android 2.3.7 'cause no Sense ROM was ever based on this Android version (out of the HTC Velocity which is a high-end phone where we can't port from). It's just possible to port Sense 2.1 w/ Android 2.3.3 to the Wildfire or Sense 3.5 w/ Android 2.3.5. but i think the development in this forum has stopped
So how to help?!: It's easy you could help with testing the ROM, making logcats or anything else which is may helpful for the developer(s) of the KoolSense-ROM.
I hope this post was may helpful for you.

Congratulations for a useless topic.

1. Google is your friend, do some research before asking for help on how to develop.
2.Wrong section
3. What was the point of posting this?

[MINI GUIDE] Phone Vocabulary - x8 Specific

This thread is being created to explain, in short, a few common phone 'terms.' Now although there are many threads explaining the same thing they are 'thicker' and written differently. A different guide will help a different person. I think it is valid that there is more than one explanation of the same thing. If you have ANY suggestions, please leave them in post form below. I have explained this relative to the Xperia x8 and this is why it is in our territory.
Remember that this is a MINI guide. So not every term in the android language will be explained. For a more complicated guide see HERE or on the everything x8 w8 thread here. Both guides are different.
Anyway Here is a mini guide about phone terms:
A ROM stands for Read Only Memory, ususally on this site referring to the phone's internal memory where your apps are stored. It's like an operating system. (OS) When people say they're flashing a new ROM, it usually means they are installing a new 'operating system'. A custom rom may have new features different to the STOCK rom.
The term Stock usually means the version of something installed by the manufacturer. Or in other words, the stuff already on that thing.
An .APK is a Package on Android. Usually you will meet these when installing apps on your phone. This is, simply put, just a file extension, like .exe on windows.
Rooting is simply giving your phone administrators rights. No roms or anything. Once rooted you could install clockworkmod which would allow you to install a rom that would work on you STOCK kernel (the one that comes with xperia).
A kernel is a set of instructions to a phone. different kernels or custom kernels (not stock) enable you to flash some more advanced roms as not all roms will work on STOCK kernel.
Also, in most cases, different kernels allow overclock and undervolt. These things allow you to make your device run faster.
Unlocking your BootLoader is required to install a custom kernel. Unlocking a bootloader can be difficult and if done wrong, can brick your device completely.(make it useless like a brick) This is why I did not do it until a few weeks ago - because I was scared. If you do however find yourself bricked, look to my guide no further than HERE.
You flash kernels with Flashtool. But you MUST have an unlocked BootLoader to do this.
If I was to recommend a rom, I would say MiniCyanogenmod (CM for short). The developer, nAa, focuses on getting the galaxy nexus android - pure version. Check out my review on the stable ever wonderful MiniCM9 HERE.
Links to Flashtool, ROMS and other things mentioned will be in my other guides hyperlinked in the article.
Please be generous with the 'Thanks' if you appreciate my effort.
Special Thanks to I Am Nice for his consistent helpful feedback

You should better explain what kernel is. Like conection between hardware and ROM

Please elaborate

All this is explained in "Everything X8/W8". Please, make something new instead.

Pls don't disrespect chris. I can tell you he knows what he's saying (he didn't get to become RT for nothing).
I admire your efforts, but please add more definitions. For example: you didn't really explain what "bootloader" means. And like chris has said, it's already explained (in morr detail) in another thread. Hopefully you'll add more jargons in the near future. Good job though. :beer:
Edit: you may want to report those users thay are stalking you.

Thankyou. After reading this again. I see that I have crossed the line on that one. Apologies to Chris and thanks to you. :fingers-crossed: I was quite tired and wasn't really paying attention. But I have typed that same line so many times that those keys on my 'board are worn out. Just a bit angry. But sorry again. No disrespect was intended.
