It's pretty easy
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1224311



So...
for example:
-you wanna port an hybrid rom (2.1 + 3.0 )
you can/should/must download the madflapjack ROM for base and your target rom ( to repack all files and folders, i prefer use 7zip)
-if you wanna port a sense 2.1 download cool sense by Race55
- If you wanna port a sense 3.0 / 3.5 rom (i've never tried) i think it's the same tip

i you want to have a look to the result, you can try my rom Reflex rom
in the last page i've ported Revolution 4.0 ROM from desire
very fast

You should print the page, like that you can tick all you did
It's veryyy easy to port a rom indeed

I love sense rom, it's fast; beautiful; not too much bug (some freeze)
Which rom will you port ?

From desire to nexus on you will have to just pay attention to the syatempartition size, they have exactly the same hardware and need the same drivers.
