[Q] Help with general development

I would like to start helping with development. I'm getting pretty good with messing around with android. I work for T-Mobile and I've had android since the G1.
I'd like to start contributing to the family.
So my question is pretty open. Where should I start for learning about android development? Any advice and help would be appreciated.

Perhaps I should ask in a general forum. Maybe this isn't the correct place to ask.

What would I need to do if I was to trade this sgs4g for a LG g2x? Trading with a friend not at the store.would we just swap sim cards or what? Reason I'm asking is cause u said u work 4 T-Mobile. Just want to know what I would need to do to put it on my plan and give him mine. Any help is appreciated.

You can swap Sims. That's all you need to do. However the warranty will be under him still. If you have insurance, it will cover the G2x. But you wont have the warranty.

@stevekixs, I am with you... I'm looking to help anyone who is currently on this path. I keep reading how we need more devs for the SGS4G. If you find a project which is needing help, let me know, please.

oh you got to be kidding me!! this is too easy here. I was going to tell you to flash one of those miui but I was once like you. THE ONLY ROMS AVAILABLE FOR THE INFUSE ARE; INFUSED BY GTG465x, REFUSE BY H8RIFT AND BIONIX BY NOPCODEX90!!!!!!!!! IF you flash any other rom your device will explode.

isnt that for the i9000? rom manager shows us the i9000 roms because we use cwm for the i9000. stick to roms you see on the forum, we dont have a aosp kernel yet. it isnt imposible to run miui on a tw kernel, the fascinate had a rom like this but it wasnt fully functional.

Psst, it was a joke, hence the recommendation to download Ultimate Unbrick first. gtg knows better

re: MIUI Rom
None of the ROMS in Rom Manager Download option is for our phones except for the GTG465x entry where you will find the Infused 1.5.2 custom rom.
I have NO idea why all those other roms even show up in our phones......
(Samsung Infuse)
It is very strange.... When I had the Samsung Captivate and I check the download roms section in Rom Manager ALL the roms there were for the Samsung Captivate.. I wish who ever is in charge of Rom Manager or the DEVS would fix the error.

let's make petition for MIUI rom

Who are you gonna make a petition against ? Look , first we have to complete CM7 then we can have MIUI. I personally think it looks like a retarted nintendo DS or something but thats me. Im almost done CM7 and when I get a hold of rz950, gtg and h8 we will have it, I assure you. Patience. I had to wait so long for any custom roms with my other phones, you spoiled brats should consider your self lucky.

Flashing with rom manager

Will flashing a rom from rom manager work with the t959v? I use it all the time with the vibrant 3g, just curious about the 4g!

ok let me reprhase that yes u can use rom manger but no it doesnt work lol but it will run lol and will cause 10000x more issues then just using cwm final by krylon or honk /krylons cwm built directly into the kernel

Yeah I've read that in other threads. Still kind of confused on the whole process, but I still have alot more reading before I start rooting and flashing roms on the vibrant 4g.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium

Everyone is saying dont use it.... but what is the reason besides the fact that it doesnt work? Is anyone working on a fix? Does Koush just need to update it??

Ics yes I am asking

Since the nexus 4g already has a working ics build is anyone working on porting this over they have a full system dump but I believe most of this was a sdk build.
Sent from my Icrap killer

If anyone from this forum is working on it, I will be more gladly to help them out. Dexton or Raver could probably port this since its not that hard at all...
Ps I gave my sgs4g to my sis in law which means I will blind port it but not until we found out who is working on it already and who is not. If you wana be testing rat, message me

I read in google posts that devices with hardware buttons running ICS will be using them and won't have their on screen replacements. That's good news, but i guess we'll need something official to support that.

Just start a new thread stating that development is dead, last time that was stated we got more ports than we could handle and got our first taste of ICS. Maybe if you start that thread they will bring us some JB .JMO
