[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.

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.

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.

Almost positive you have the option for both. Anyways I have a spare 4g to test with if needed.

we are a very helpful and friendly community here. We don't like lazy people who won't read anything and then piss and moan when they flash stuff from other phones or don't read the OP instructions.
It's simple, help yourself and if you can't figure it out from some reading and searching we will be glad to point someone in the right direction.

Self-injury is a treatable disorder. Please get help.

If you're asking questions that have been answered and those answers can be attained by searching then you are breaking the rules of xda. Period.

Google Now

Is there a way I can get Google Now on the Samsung Galaxy s 4g running ICS? I saw it against Siri and it blew my mind.

You need to stop making threads and/or asking such questions, because if you would actually search and read, there's a thread for Google Now in the Themes and Apps Section of this phone's forum, probably first thread listed there. Ugh!

I didn't know a thread was already created.

Try searching next time. You could have found it by taking a little time to look before posting a new thread.

Perhaps its because of the herring kernel, but I do feel as if we can do something to speed it up. Any ideas?
