hello i'm a beginner in the android world but i'm quite good at programming so i decided to try to create one custom rom... but for that i need all porting information about the acer liquid device that i can't find anywhere... so i was thinking to ask the community if there is and how can i reach that information that can be stored in a file to add to the source or to the replace with an abstract generic template in the code... i know i'm very confused but if you understand please help me :unsure:

There was a similar thread some time back:

http://android.modaco.com/content/acer-liq...-to-the-liquid/

Don't know if that has the answers you need to know, but while reading it please ignore the flames and random word-wars, our community is better than that. All the best! :unsure:

Yes it is probably best to start at page 2.

Edit: this thread discuss porting roms that is compiled for other devices. There are other threads discussing how to compile android from source for liquid. I made one, that is a bit outdated now but it might be of interest still. http://android.modaco.com/content/acer-liq...d/#entry1358820

Hi nanodrone,

If you are good at programming, my advice is "Use The Source, Luke" :unsure:

There are many sources in android, you can sync Xian's CM device tree and CyanogenMod, there are too many things you can dig.

Xian's CM device tree: https://github.com/xian1243

CyanogenMod Android tree: https://github.com/CyanogenMod

Thanks. B)

Hi nanodrone,

It's my pleasure to receive your reply. too. :unsure:

If you download from official android repos, you should read the post koudelka have given you, koud is so nice a man wrote this tutorial to us. B)

This link from koud's post called device tree, http://www.multiupload.com/IY135XIZ8O

It will be put into device folder.

No, If u just want to compile it, eclipse is not necessary. :D

Thanks. :angry:

EDIT: Is it possible to create a boot.img for the liquid that is UNIVERSAL for all roms? or some of the important files that are very important that will never change between roms?
