If you are serious about Android then be prepared to read - that is the one thing which will separate you from the average user.
To get you started you will need to know a few basics before you can start contributing to a community which has dedicated themselves in bringing better Operating Systems (Roms) to our phones. By knowing these basic steps you will be able to help iron out bugs from whatever Rom you have decided to keep on your phone and thus, improving your own user experience.
If you are completely new to this then you should read Glevitan's Starter Guide. It contains everything you need to know and it is a mandatory prerequisite before you can post in this thread seaking help.
Now that you have read and understood some of the terminology and how to recover from possible issues, you can root your phone with the A high-level DHD/Inspire manual S-OFF hack concept for advanced users [NOTE: The AAHK HAS BEEN RETIRED FOR NOOBS. IT IS FOR ADVANCE USERS ONLY. REFER TO THIS STICKY INSTEAD [How to] ROOT without the Hack Kit] Even if you do encounter issues, knowing the terminology, what you did and what went wrong will help communicating your issue so we can find a way to solve it. If you read the starter guide you should know that we don't recommend using HTC dev to unlock your bootloader. However, if you did go this route you can read this helpful guide: [NOOB] Flashing a custom ROM & getting it to boot IF bootloader is htcdev unlocked. And finally, our own resident and esteemed Glevitan is working on a tool to make it easier for you all. [ROOT] [TOOL] Easy Ace Root Tool
After having spent some time in the XDA threads reading a lot more than what you should post, you will have realized that almost any question you could possibly think about has already been asked over a dozen times and why so many emphasize the importance of searching for your answer first. You would also come to realize what are the benefits of setting up ADB. Among one of ADB (Android debug Bridge - [GUIDE] ADB - Usage, Tips, Tricks and More! and [GUIDE]ADB Workshop and Guide for everyone) uses is creating logcats. These logcats help developers finding what is causing a bug and how to fix it. This is a quick [Tutorial] How To Logcat. However, this quick tutorial will only help you get started. Keep in mind that apps like aLogcat or Catlog could shorten important output from the log. Another one: Learn to logcat like a Pro!
To be able to help developers create a better user experience for us, we need to create a bug report. The reason why we first need to search the forum is to avoid confusing the developer by cluttering the thread with repeated reports, of bugs and questions which as mentioned earlier, most likely have already been asked. To have a better understanding of the different instances we can create logs, then have a look at: [TUT]Report a bug I do believe this can not be emphasized enough and thus, what better way than reading it from existz own words.

INDEX
ABSTRACT
The present document pretends to guide the noobs and not so noobs in their flashing / modding / theming way. It covers what the team thought is the basic stuff you should be in knowledge of and may be the most helpful. Any suggestions about the contents or stuff that you think should be included are welcomed, just let us know.
Guide Index
1.Basic Stuff: In this section you will find the common language that is related to Android / HTC Ace devices. This is fundamental for you to understand how things work.
2.Rooting: THIS IS OUT OF SERVICE...CHECK THE UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER TOOL IN PARAGRAPH 4
3.Fixing a messed bootloader: You are not good at listening advices or reading for comprehension. You flashed a froyo RUU or hboot in your GB shipped device? Thank God attn1 was around. This is the Hboot fix for you. All credits go for the Hack Kit Channel devs. I have not done anything but put it here
4.HTCDEV tool: So far, this is the best and only way to do the flashing stuff....
5.Unrooting: In case you need to take your phone to the service centre or lost your mind and want the stock rom back (is there anybody that actually does? :cyclops ) you will find everything you need to know here.
6.Flashing roms: The right steps to flash successfully a custom rom…you can´t miss it. If you do, then you haven´t read carefully.
7.Doing / Restoring a nandroid backup: In case you mess it or you don't like what you get on a new rom, a nand backup is what will save your A**. Follow the path and you will see the light at the end of the tunnel.
8.Radio / RILs: All the radio / RILs related issues, follow this or you will regret it!!
9.Kernels: Everything you always wanted to know about kernels but you didn't dare to ask. Links on line now..:silly:
10.Trouble shooting: I guess this will be the most visited section of the guide. OF COURSE YOU DIDN´T READ THE ABOVE. NOW YOU ARE HERE BUDDY FIX YOURSELF A GOOD READ
11.Customization: For those who would like to start customizing your devices, here you will find a good point of start but THIS IS JUST THE BEGUINNING [/QUOTE]
12.Battery drain issues: I HAVE FLASHED A NEW ROM AND MY BATTERY IS DRAINING WAY TO FASSSSSST!. Well that could be normal, just read and learn before you run out of battery...lol
Find the document here: http://d-h.st/Ii2
FAQ & Notice
FAQ :
What Is the Best Battery,Performance GB/ICS/JB ROM?
There is no best ROM, the opinion of each ROM is different from one person to the other, it is subjective.
Is there a recommended Radio for ROM x?
There isn't a recommended radio for any ROM, since the Radio depends where you live, it is best to test each one for a few days to see which one works best for you.
Can I Flash RIL For AOSP ROM?
No, the RIL is sense based ROM,AOSP RIL is provided in the ROM
How Can I Boot in Recovery/Bootloader if My Volume Rocker is Broken?
You must setup adb and then the command:
adb reboot recovery/bootloader
Why Don't We Have Any OFFICIAL CM9 ROM?
Because the CM team always makes everything work (camera, camcorder, etc) and since we don't have the kernel 3.0 source, there isn't any OFFICIAL CM ROM from them.
Is There Any Official Rooted Sense 3.0 ROM?
Yes, There it is
Notice when Posting On the Dev Thread :
Please Read the First Post, It Usually Stated What's Working and Not Working
Don't Post Any THANKS, just use the thanks button
Don't Even Ask ETA of the ROM, the ROM will update when it's ready
Full Wipe Is Recommended when Updating the ROM, but also can try it without (this is basic,even if it's not stated on 1st post)
ADB is easy, very simple to use. Its the CLI interface that most cannot get used to and are afraid of.
A great XDA guide/overview on ADB here. --> [GUIDE] ADB - Usage, Tips, Tricks and More!
After a full wipe including sd card, to restore a backup mount sd card to pc, create the folder "clockworkmod/backup" place backup there - unmount, flash.
Is there a way to flash a backup using adb? If yes, do the folders need to be created or not and what would the command be? I couldn't find an answer for that.
Edit: Answer is no. Why? I have no clue.

@hdorius - what do you know to do? Didn't you port paranoidandroid? The faq's look good but needs some editing/correction. Where are you from? What's your first language? Do you need help with that?
@Guy - what happened buddy? In the previous page I suggested a few things. Apps? It depends what the others think. I don't see this as a standard.
@miukkuman - where are you?
By the way, where are you from? What do you know to do in the android world or what are you interested in learning?
@everyone - the idea behind this thread is:
- I rather ask each one of you to tell me what you understood which is the idea behind this thread - what you understood. If you didn't understand then I'll need to find a better way to explain myself.

ok, before sending the file via PM, I can answer you...there's no choice of restoring a backup from adb. That is the same as flashing a Custom Rom....those files are packed in a certain way that won't be possible to be flashed in hboot (PD98IMG.zip) way.

Thanks bub, so no can do. I don't believe in 'no can do's
Did you read my question about the hboot interface in the other thread? This, and the above question is simply a language (which I know absolutely nothing about) - there must be a way to get them talking to each other.

Anything you like really, it's your show. Porting? There are plenty guides for that. If you know any good ones I can link them in the third post. Can you look through the ones I posted to see which are good and if there are any ones that are repetitive or if there are better ones than the ones I posted? Especially the flashable zip link, since I don't know anything about that, maybe there is a betrer one or a guide or a tool for it?
I'll pm you in about 20 minutes.

Greets to all
Greets to all from another noob. Well, not a complete noob but a noob here on XDA given my few posts. My deep thanks for allowing a thread where sometimes there just might not be such a thing as a stupid question but honest ones instead,.... Hoping I can contribute something here as an owner of a softbank DHD here in Kyoto, Japan aka the 001HT. I spend alot of time trying to dig up general info from all over the i'net to help answer questions especially for ACE owners so I hope that might be of some help. Grant Barker's homepage is a great resource, (hope its allowed to mention that~). My first minor contribution------ 64GB MicroSD card usage with the DHD. It may already be well-known but for all us noobs who aren't too sure make no mistake..... I have the SanDisk Class 10 64GB MicroSD card and it works flawlessly in my DHD. Since I like to pack lots of MP3's and several full-length HD movies into my handset (helps keep the kids quiet on long drives ) being able to have that much storage space is a blessing! So, just to reiterate, 64GB microSD card--- no problems!

Thanks for the feedback Blashpemer666, hopefully you manage to refrain yourself in front of the kids.
Absolutely, we were all noobs, still are and probably remain being noobs. There is too much information to cover and too little time to do it in. We here are just trying to return to the community what they have given us by helping the new members whenever they need it and whenever we can, to the best of our knowledge, by pointing them in the right direction. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
Check the second post, it has been updated.
@glevitan, pm.ed you.
@hdorius, same to you. There are a few mistakes in the pm I sent.
Reading about pdroid and from what I gather, you can't use it with our stock ROM even if you have root. Any devs or more knowledgeable people who can tell me how to compile a stock rooted ROM that includes pdroid?

or... for that matter, why is it that none of the roms seem to be integrating pdroid/openpdroid?
I have tried the autopatcher on several different roms, and none have patched properly.
I feel like this is a very good feature, but I am starting to feel as if I am in the minority.
Have I missed any roms with pdroid in them?
Maybe its still too buggy to be integrated into a ROM - regardless, I'm going to see if I can get something going tonight when I have a few hours. I've never compiled Roms before tho so I doubt I'll be successful. If I am I'll find a way to share it :beer:

I have patched Primerunner rom, PA rom and Steve's PUB rom with OpenPdroid and Autopatcher through ApG
Don.t think Collegedev has pushed Pdroid to 4.2.1 in Autopatcher yet but am sure openpdroid and pdroid are now interacting on how to move it forward...
Steve's Pub rom 5th Feb..fully patched no errors.....Primefrunner and PA.2.99 patched with 1 or 2 error fixes but successfully patched..
I'm running Steve's Pub rom patched with Openpdroid and this is an Antutu score for reference ...running very smooth
Uploaded Patches

Above is link for rom use Krait version
Here is the patches for Steve's pub rom
You will also need Pdroid manager apk to control and monitor..
Remember YOU do this because YOU want to
It's working perfect for me
So it wouldn't be possible to patch stock rooted 4.2.1? Or the upcoming 4.2.2? Only aokp and aosp?

i looked for a few threads about pdroid and i still don't get how i make this thing work on cm10.1 or paranoid android or other roms.
I'm also interested in integrating openpdroid or pdroid, does anyone have opinion between the two projects?
Also in the same vein, the fugumod kernel on Galaxy Nexus looks really good. A similar hardened kernel would be nice to see on Nexus 4, unless one exists already?

OK, I made it and it works!
1) Download mako rom from link above.
2) Download gapps.
3) Download those 2 attached files.
4) Move all files to phone storage.
5) Make a nandroid backup.
6) Full wipe.
7) Flash by this order:
* Rom
* Gapps
* ....restore.zip (attached file)
* ...update.zip (attached file)
8) Wipe dalvik cache
9) Reboot
10) Install from play store the PDroid Manager
That's is.

THIS. very interested in 4.2.2. I am using the mysterious aokp 4.2.2 right now, and I LOVED pub, but I don't like downgrading. As frustrating as that may be sometimes... case in point, DANG I really miss AVRCP. driving around and my jvc head unit always says 'no name'
I guess my main question is why are more developers not integrating this into their roms? Seems like a valuable security enhancement.
(Please, don't get me wrong. I am not complaining, and I love and appreciate the work that goes into development. I am genuinely curious if their is some reason preventing integration.)
Finally got open pdroid to patch successfully on both mysterious aokp 4.2.2 2/19 release, and on pa 3.0. happy happy camper. Facebook messenger now says I am most definitely not at another girl's house when I message my girlfriend. jk of course.

How do I run auto patcher on Win 7 without the ApG tool
Hi,
I downloaded the latest ApG tool from here: forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31648393&postcount=690
I had already installed the latest JDK/JRE along with Cygwin on my PC (with some help from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28196231&postcount=104).
However, when I run ApG, it insists on downloading Java and Cygwin once again! The total download it wants to make is some 250 MB. While the size of the download is not an issue, I do want to know why ApG is insisting on downloading something that has already been installed. Is there some mistake with my installation? Or has the ApG team missed out on this basic error check?
Apart from this, if I want to auto patch a ROM using auto patcher on Win 7 (WITHOUT ApG), how do I go about it? Like I said, I already have Java and Cygwin installed on my machine.
Would appreciate any help or guidance on this topic.
Thanks in advance!
Does anyone know of any other thread on this topic? I've not been able to find other threads in Q&A related to openpdroid.

I think the reason the Apg tool downloads it's own copy of Java and cgwin is because it was designed to be a stand alone solution. I've been using it since it started supporting 4.2 based roms and it works great. Sorry I can't help with patching a rom without using the tool. It would probably be easier to install Ubuntu in a virtual machine than to figure it out using cgwin.
There is an openpdroid thread in the main android section of these forums. Sorry i cant get you a link right now as I'm on my phone and searching isn't really practical from the xda app.
I guess I'll just have to go ahead and let the app do its magic the way it wants . Thanks anyways for your response. I did think about the VM solution, but that seemed not worth the effort. I'll post a better solution if I find one (on installation without the tool).

Hi all.
I open this thread about how i theme my OMEGA V20 LSD ROM only for people who are using an LSD ROM (works with LSJ,LS8 or >) in 2nd ROM.
Before continuing reading my speech, You have to follow this uniq thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2120514
to understang what i'm talking about.
If you have understand the thread, you can adjust and use my ZIPs as you want.
(I use the thread mentioned with OMEGA V20 LSD which i REPACK for good use in 2ND ROM.)
I Assume that my ZIPs THEMER are working only in this configuration.
What about this special configuration with a little explaination :
due to the volume of LSJ,LS8,LSD rom,your system have to be organize like that :
\system\app\*.apk
\data\app\app\*.apk (which contain apks system which normally are in \system\app\ but in our case, they are
symlinked in \system\app\*.ln so we have gain place in partition \system\ , also *.apks and *.ln are
put with the good rights.
So if you have this configuration you can use my ZIP and in case modified them before flash if your APKs system are put in <> forders from mine.
I have to modify installtheme.sh and updater-script too.

Thank's for reading until here and hope you have also understand my poor school english we learn in France and excuse it
All my ZIP here or here always updating
Be careful
Sometimes flashing my ZIP take very very long time but dont be affraid, it's not freeze like windows XP before blue screen , you have to be patient during flash, that's all
If someone make Omega(or any other stock rom) looks like a CM10.1 that would be an achievement for sure.
Nice info man.

I'm curious as to if, anyone has tried the BAM ROM 2.0? They just uploaded the 20140101 Build and I am using PA now. I ask for feedback because I was unable to locate a thread on the LG G2 forums for them as of yet. Also, the file size is 333MB so was thinking maybe they included their own GAPPS package with it. Anyways here is the link
Dredd Edit done

I just flashed and to get it to boot properly, you need to install Aysir's PAEK kernel after flashing the ROM. And don't flash GAPPS. Looking in to SuperSU at the moment. Looks like I need to flash that as well. All in all, it looks good so far.
Member, Due to this ROM being Ban from XDA, I have edited your posts; why you might ask....the maker of this ROM, felt the need NOT to comply with XDA policy on ROM's and hence his banning to include his Work....so please do not post any bam/jellybam etc.
