[guide] Android Rom Hacking Guide - LG Optimus Black

Hi! I'm in the process of learning how to port ICS for optimus black. Since I didn't find a (good) one, I'm writing a guide to help other get started. It would be really nice if this will be a community guide so I'd really like to post there in the development section. I'm sharing it with editing rights for all, please do not vandalize it

We can also discuss regarding addition/deletion of new sections. Google docs has a nice commenting feature so you can easily comment things that you do/don't like and express your opinion.
Bye!

Great effort, but it doesn't belong in Development.

Thanks, a really nice and good idea!

Throttlelock skins

hope some one enjoys these.
another screenshot
here's the cd theme.
None of these have lines.
Digging the CD theme, going to try it out. Thanks.
You're welcome.
It's nice to fially have a chance to contribute to this fantastic site
Just a follow up. Was using the CD theme all day today and it looks real well. Everybody at work knows me as "blankman" because I am always buying blank cds so when they saw this on my phone, everybody got a nice little laugh out of it. Thanks again.
why don't you just post your skins in the throttle lock thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=419525
or maybe go to the real ThrottleLock website and post it there? http://www.throttlelauncher.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=19
we already have enough new threads started for skins for this program instead of people just including their skins in the threads that already exist.
sorry if i am coming off as a jerk but like i said there are too many threads for this and this is hardly the section to post this in because a skin doesnt have anything to do with software development.

Sorry
Sorry for the honest mistake.
Just wanted to contribute to this forum.
I will go elsewhere from now on.
@rojaa
There is nothing wrong with opening a thread in this section if you are making some sort of contribution. Making the software look more appealing is also part of the development process in any software. Why else do you think that we are not cracking down on {skin} threads?
The only thing that you cannot post in this section are new threads with questions that can be answered either in the corresponding forum/thread of the software/hardware related to the question.
Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong...
BTW, cool skin

[REF] Guide to Compiling (covers CM7)

Not sure if this goes here but I thought that this was the most applicable section. If not then I apologize in advance and feel free to move it to the correct section mods.
Gridlock32404 on the XDA forums has put together a great guide to compiling for Android. I briefly skimmed over the post and it does much more then teach compiling. I personally think its a great starting read for anyone interested in getting started on doing more with their device besides just flashing.
Check it out with the link below. If almyz125 wants to add it to the Vibrant Directory that would great.

Personally, I feel that development guides belong in development as long as they're informative. In this case I think it's a good submissions. Thanks for the post
(although I really wish the mods would have thought more about my idea to change forums names to Roms, Mods, Themes, Guides, Think Tank, Q&A, Off Topic, etc.)

I agree with the forum naming suggestion. Should be mandatory to read that post before anyone asks how to make or take apart roms. Very informative and easy to read imo.
Finally, a not useless post...

ICQ for Windows Phone 7

Hi everybody!
I'm writing ICQ Messenger for WP7 now and have a VERY BIG ISSUE with it:
WP7 Silverlight does not support SOCKETs!!!
Does anybody know how to workaround this?
The only way I see is create a SERVICE on my home PC with static IP, that will be a link between WCF classes to communicate with WP7 Client and ICQ Server, that (to my mind) only supports Sockets...
Waiting for your comments and suggestions! ))

Post in correct sections.
General/Questions etc go in the "Q&A" forum
Developments go in the "Development" forum.
This forum is named "Windows Phone 7 Development"... Where should I post if not here?

Would be best to post in the "Q&A" forum or the apps forum. This is mainly for posting of dev work.
This forum is mainly for posting of work not general discussion as then we would get all sorts of topics created here and then we will have to soft through a load of crap just to find the devs posts.
maybe there should be a board section "winp7 coding". but for my understanding developers of tools for wp7 should ask their questions here in the dev section, like the rom-chefs do. like it says, it's about developing. maybe somebody has a tip for the op and can guide him to a nice coding community manly working with wp7.

Excellent point, this.
Purely based on OP's post, there's nothing HD2-related about the issue he/she's encountered.
Unless OP has a specific reason for keeping this in the HD2 section, this thread might be better off in the general "Windows Phone 7 Software Development" section. There's almost certainly more WP7 experts browsing there.
Exactly. This is in no way related to HD2 WP7 development so shouldn't be here.
@OP
don't give too much on those ppl *****in' around. try to open a thread in wp7 development or apps and games.
perhaps there you get real help. i appreciate your attempt to make a icq client =)

Looking for a stock rom with unlocked tether

Can anyone suggest a good stock rom with unlocked tether?
I am planning on rooting and not familiar with any of the at&t development since I have a Verizon phone. This is to help out someone else.
Thanks
First thing is Questions and request for assistance belong in the Q&A section not General.
Second thing is XDA is a development site not a support site. As such members are expected to do the research, read through the development threads and decide what is BEST for them. The only results that would be posted here are what each member has found to be BEST for them by experimentation based on their phone/usage/setup/apps/signal strength. Please take the time to read through those development threads to learn all about the software you are about to drastically alter your very expensive device with.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation.

Have a great day!
