What follows is more a simple explanation on how to build an Android ROMROM is literally “read-only memory” but its usage has changed over time.

I’m going to discuss several parts that can’t be absent if you want a fully functional Android phone, from the software point of view that is.
Here’s a brief summary :
- Kernel
- Libraries (and modules)
- BootloaderThe bootloader is firmware on the phone which runs on every startup. Sometimes it may be desirable to change the version of the bootloader, or to load a different bootloader entirely to enable different features or a completely different OS. The current version of the bootloader can be viewed by entering bootloader mode, the process of which is different for each and every device or manufacturer.
- RecoveryThe recovery partition is a boot-mode for your phone that allows you to wipe your settings from the Data partitionThe data partition on the device contains the user-related data, such as installed applications and settings for those apps, as well as your SQLite database containing Android settings and messages. Normally, the directory /data/app is off-limits through the ‘adb shell’ command, as well as other terminal applications that can run on the device, since this directory contains the apk files for apps. On a rooted phone, using the ‘su’ command will allow full access to this partition.

- RadioThe Radio on a mobile phone is the part of the phone that deals with mobile connections. It handles talking to the CDMA/GSM/LTE/3G/4G network, Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS.

A kernel is a critical component of every Operating System. It can be seen as a sort of bridge between the applications and the actual hardware of a device. Usually the data processing part is done at hardware level, furthermore the kernel is the most low-level abstraction layer for the resourcesNonprogrammatic application components that are external to the compiled application code, but which can be loaded from application code using a well-known reference format. Android supports a variety of resource types, but a typical application’s resources would consist of UI strings, UI layout components, graphics or other media files, and so on. An application uses resources to efficiently support localization and varied device profiles and states. For example, an application would include a separate set of resources for each supported local or device type, and it could include layout resources that are specific to the current screen orientation (landscape or portrait).

So it’s really important you have a kernel for your type of device, an HTC Wildfire kernel won’t work on a Nexus One for example.
It is possible to overclock a kernel. You may wonder, what the hell is overclocking? Every CPU is designed to work at a certain clock speed. For the HTC Wildfire the Qualcomm ARMv6 processor operates at 528 mHz — this is a limit that is coded in to the kernel because they can’t guarantee good cooling for the CPU if you go over this limit. My Wildfire runs at 652.8 mHz and it can go to 768 MHz until it freezes. When you overclock the kernel, the CPU will be instructed to do more calculations per second; so, it will increase performance.
When you overclock the CPU of your desktop machine, it will need extra cooling, but fortunately that’s not necessary for a smartphone. However, keep in mind that this will degenerate your CPU much faster than if it was at stockThe term stock is often used to refer to a file or part of the software which is unmodified or untouched by developers. For example, a stock ROM would be one which was produced by HTC or Samsung and which has not been modified or rooted by someone. The term is often used when comparing performance of different ROMs, as a way to refer to the phone as it came out the box.. To overclock an Android phone you must rootRoot is the name of the highest level superuser (susu (substitute user) is a Linux command which, when run without a username parameter, gives the user full ‘root’ permissions. By default, this command binary (ie. Linux equivalent of an executable file) is not included on Android systems, but the process of “rooting” a phone copies this file to the ‘/system/bin/’ directory thereby enabling the command. Since root privileges can be abused by malicious applications it’s highly recommended to install an app to grant and manage access to su, similar to UAC on Windows. Many ROMs include the app called “SuperSU” for this.) on Unix-like systems such as Android. The root user, and applications run by the root user, have administrative access to protected files and services which makes it dangerous for normal daily use. A ‘rooted’ device is one which has been hacked to provide privilege escalation from a standard user to superuser. Rooting a device is usually the first step in installing cooked ROMs. it and install SetCPU or another overclocking app from the Play StoreThe market on Android is a place where you can purchase or download applications for your phone. When you download through the market, the installation process is transparent (as in you don’t have to deal with the APK files yourself), and there is the facility to rate apps and post comments which are visible to other users. Frequently, the developers of apps actually take onboard the feedback in the comments (mainly the smaller apps with slightly less feedback to sift through). When an app is installed from the market, it is copied to ‘/data/app/apkname.apk’, as the act of ‘installing’. An app can store its data in the folder ‘/data/data/apkname’. It is possible to clear the data stored by an application by using the Manage Applications feature in Settings | Applications | Manage Applications..

These are things not only your own application will use, but there can be tons of applications that have a button that can take a photo. So, imagine those apps always having to write the machine code to get the camera to turn on; it would be a lot of code duplication and would make an application slow. Instead, for functions like the camera or loudspeakers, they developed libraries. These are chunk of codes that can be executed by calling them trough a call-method (in java : import somelibrarie.someclass;). These are already pre-written and ready to use. It saves a lot of coding work and keeps the source code small. Libraries in the Windows OS for example are called .dll files (Dynamic Linked Libraries), whereas on your Android ROMROM is literally “read-only memory” but its usage has changed over time.

By default, this command binary (ie. Linux equivalent of an executable file) is not included on Android systems, but the process of “rooting” a phone copies this file to the ‘/system/bin/’ directory thereby enabling the command. Since root privileges can be abused by malicious applications it’s highly recommended to install an app to grant and manage access to su, similar to UAC on Windows. Many ROMs include the app called “SuperSU” for this.) on Unix-like systems such as Android. The root user, and applications run by the root user, have administrative access to protected files and services which makes it dangerous for normal daily use.
