"COLLECTIONS", "REFERENCES" "LIBRARIES/INDEXES" and HOW TOS BELONG IN GENERAL SECTION.​

Try to keep the development forum CLEAN! No offtopic posting and no questions.

Use the report button in an offending post to let us mods know we need to take action. Dont take matters into your own hands!!!

Sources need to be posted for all kernels!!!

You need to use TAGS like [ROM] or [KERNEL] and so on as used in all dev forums throughout XDA

Any disputes between developers should be handled by pm. No public posting in a dev thread regarding these matters

Rom issues should be discussed within their respective threads, or in a corrisponding Q&A thread

Thread titles should ALWAYS coincide with ROMS ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD!!! No advance notification of incoming ROM through thread title. A changelog for the yet unreleased Rom can be included in the OP or in another post CLEARLY MARKED as EXPECTED CHANGELOG

Posting in the development section means automatic ACCEPTANCE of the above Rules

Attention developers or those just starting out ​

How do I determine if my work belongs in Original Development?

​

These are the determining factors:

~The following are most likely “Original Development”:

Official releases of highly original and upstream custom ROMs (built from the ground up with significant original development within them

Official releases/development of such original ROMs, perhaps posted by the maintainer or their nominated person.

A significant “first” in development for a device. Significant is subjective, but it is likely something which took considerable time/effort, and is generally accepted by developers to be significant and non-trivial.

Kernels which are built with beneficial changes that are not simply pulled from other kernels already available. Some element of original work is expected.

Tools and utilities with a clear purpose, and which are well-made, and useful to users. They should have an element of originality, either in purpose or through significant improvement in the means of operation.

Significant port of a ROM from one device to another, giving enhanced features or functionality to users of the target device. The port should be beneficial (a port from two virtually identical devices isn’t original development, it’s winzipping, and nobody really benefits from this, as it’s not development)

~The following are most likely

not

“Original Development”, and should be posted in the “Android Development” sub forum:

Your own “unofficial” stock build of your favourite original, source-built (or otherwise) ROM, particularly where an official or maintainer-endorsed thread exists already.

Minor derivatives of other ROMs with little or no changes, or ROMs consisting of “placebo” features as a main constituent or claim.

Renames or rebadges of others’ work – these don’t belong on XDA at all! Refer to rule 12 for more information.

Reposts of existing ROMs with small changes (i.e. kitchen work, such as adding a couple of apps). If you could realistically distribute your changes as an “addon pack” above and beyond a ROM, you should do so. In addition, your “ROM” would not be original development as it would be substantially identical to the original ROM.

A thread created with unrealistic goals that are clearly unachievable by those starting the thread. This is not intended to discourage high aspirations, rather to prevent threads porting Windows Phone 8 to the HTC Wallaby. This is pretty much common sense.

A ROM where a main or significant claim/feature is graphical changes to the user interface (ie. Themed ROM)

Forum section rules:

To help keep this forum section tidy and easy to use, here are some rules and guidelines.

Only the following topics are allowed in the DEVELOPMENT area:

[DEV] - Development for any projects or Apps.

[ROM] - Custom ROMs.

[KERNEL] - Custom Kernels.

[MOD] - Hack & Modifications for the phone. (See below for more details)

[FIX] - Fixes for known issues & bugs.

[R&D] - Research & Development for Devs only, when gathering data for a new projects.

Please keep all non Development relevant chatter out of development threads, It is recommended to make a separate thread in the Q&A section for non Development related comments and questions, valid replies within a development thread are: BUG Reports, Problem, Troubleshooting Steps & Logs.

Note: If you are unsure where your new topic should go, then please post it in General.

For more information on the Original Android Development section check out this portal post

All kinds of Best Rom/Kernel/etc threads are unwelcome and they will be closed. Read, research and make your own mind up, as the question is very subjective.

Please Include Screen Shots for ROM / MOD / THEME / Apps & Games, when possible as it's expected by our members.

[MOD]'s that are primarily theming related or simply adjust stock application or framework functionality or behavior belong in the themes and apps section rather than the development section.

Unmodified Stock ROM and Source Codes does not count as a DEVELOPMENT project unless it's part of an active project you have already started, and so should be posted in the general section.

Placeholder threads posted in the development section will be removed or moved.

Howto's and Guides should be posted in the general section.

Password must be provided for all password protected files.

Direct download links preferred, due to stipulations stated in forum rule #11

Extra emphasis on rule #12

... and Please! keep all your personal bickering via PMs, do not pollute the forum with your personal indifferences.

If you have a problem with a specific member please contact the Moderators for help, that's what we're here for, but we are not babysitters, we are here to gather, organize and provide useful information for our over priced phones ;)
