FAQ

ROM's:
Q: What is a ROM?
A: The ROM or OS is the image of the operating system. Example, Honeycomb, Gingerbread, Froyo, Eclair, Donut and Cupcake these are considered the ROM. The term ROM(s) is usually used in the rooting and hacking community when referring to a modified or custom version of the original ROM/OS.
Kernels:
Q: What is a kernel?
A: In simple terms, a kernel is the main link to the ROM (OS) and tells it what to do and how to do it. Aside from stock kernels, modified kernels are used for overclocking the speed of processor and controlling of voltage usage, resulting in better battery life and other settings.
Themes:
Q: What is a theme?
A: A theme is a makeover of the ROM's UI (user interface) by means of changing backgrounds, text colors, icons, overall appearance. This could also include battery display mods, and other neat additions.
Other Mods:
Q: What is other mods?
A: This could be modified stock ROM applications, startup & shutdown boot animations and application restores/reverts & other misc. changes that can be flashed or installed.

Reserved....

 

[monkey30butt]

Thanks for the list Paul!

I vote Sticky........in place oh EH17's list......

 

[Paul627g]

It will be a sticky as soon as the mods come through and do it for me

 

[Officerpolabear]

Haven't seen one of these kind of threads in a long while. Thanks Paul for bringing it back!

 

[Paul627g]

Oh ya the full format, I only do that for official release... Not worth all the work on those leak builds....

 

[Dronak]

Thanks for the list. This looks like it will be helpful for tracking the kind of stuff that's out there for EI22. I think I basically get the difference between the ROM and the kernel, but do custom ROMs usually contain/include custom kernels as well? I'm wondering if I decide to root and install a ROM, will I need to get a kernel too, does the ROM already have one, or if not, will the ROM work fine with the stock kernel? Maybe not worth adding to the FAQ, but since I'm kind of new to this, I was curious about it. Thanks.

 

[Paul627g]

Yes ROMs will normally have their own kernel or use one of the ones available.. Just depends on who it is...Custom ROMs will almost always be something other than the stock kernel...

 

[Dronak]

Thanks, I guess installing a custom ROM is usually enough then. Is there a good reason to try to install a custom kernel, but not a custom ROM? While I'm writing, I've got a probably stupid question: if we can update our OS using stock recovery and an update.zip file, is there some reason we can't do the same with custom ROMs? Just curious, because it would be so much easier if that worked.

Also, the ACS ICS ROM is at v4 now. The link you have goes to the right XDA post, but they've update the ROM since your post. I just thought I'd let you know in case you want to edit that here.

Yes I'm aware of the update... I will try and hit that tomorrow...

Actually once you get in and use CWM (Clock Work Mod) recovery its similar to stock except many more options and we can't modify stock recovery to do what we need for custom ROMs.

Kernels, I would say still flash even a stockish version of GB then grab your custom kernel... This was the ROM will work hand in hand with the kernel mods to give you more benefits/improvements over stock.

Question? If i backup with titanium the fash a ext4 rom like ACS ICS, (im on rooted rfs stock 2.2) and re install all my apps say (jort) is one of them. Them do a data only retore from titanium. Will it work?
Can my data(or apps) from rfs restore to ext4? What would be the disadvantage of ext4?
Thanks
Doug

Ah, I guess that's why the custom recovery is needed. From what I read, it does seem to function like the stock recovery, which is why I was wondering if we could just name some ROM file update.zip and use stock recovery to flash it. I guess stock recovery just doesn't provide the necessary features.

Now that we have official Gingerbread, will the instructions for doing a factory restore to stock get updated to show how to restore stock EI22? I think what I've seen so far is still for Froyo or maybe leaked Gingerbread. I think before I try rooting, I'd like to know how to get back to the current official ROM. (Preferably without going back to Froyo and flashing up to Gingerbread again.)

Getting root doesn't seem too hard from what I read -- Odin on a patch to make custom recovery stick, then put the custom recovery on, then flash a file to get root access. But what's a good way for someone new to this to progress from there? How much customizing can I do from a rooted stock ROM? Is there much to do with only the custom recovery? Or is it better to just go for a full ROM? Most ROMs seem to include a lot of edits that I'd probably want (GPS fix, no CIQ, help on battery life, etc.), so maybe that's a better option. But if the custom ROMs are still in the process of stabilizing after the official Gingerbread release, maybe I should wait a bit on that. I might try to root and make some flashable edits before then though.

Thanks for all the info. I hope I'm not side-tracking this thread too much.

 

[flastnoles11]

If you are looking for a good stable rom to flash so you don't have to do everything on your own then era legendary 4.0.1 is the way to go IMO... very stable and very smooth running... very easy to flash and all directions to do so can be found on the thread for that rom which is posted earlier on this forum. Happy flashing! ;-)
