[REQUEST] Android development & debuging tools and threads - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

I m' new to android just bought that phone a month ago, I used to be a computer programmer for years but android, kernels seem to be a bit different.
I searched for guides here but found few ones like:
- [GUIDE] How to port a ROM
- [GUIDE] For porting ICS to i9003
i know it may be that post is of the least value to the forum members but i hope any developer ll post here links for guides & tools to android development & debuging.
i don't need too many explanations so i think it is not hard job for devs..
Thanx in advance.

Thts very generous of u to post the links of the threads.

Yeah, I think there are a number of developers in our forum who would like to contribute but are just new to the whole AOSP thing. I am browsing codeworkx's old thread and he shared resources with a number of guys to help in porting CM 7. Any resource to start with would be most welcome..

[Guide] building and modding custom roms

First of all, i hope the mods and admins forgive me that i open this thread in the development section, it would better fit to general, but i noticed that the developers aren't really present at the general section, if i'm wrong please move it.
This thread is build to become an collection of our developers knowledge that helps newcomers to androiddevelopment to start with it. I know out there are some guides already and in every thread there's a little bit of it, but i would really like to collect as much as possible at one place, if it's not your opinion delete it.
It's not ment to become an step by step guide (but if anyone will write one i'm sure not upset ), it should be an collection of links, and posts of special parts of development, cause i think most developers aren't the overall specialists, but kings in their section^^ and the readers of these informations can compile what they want from it.
So pls dear android developers share your knowledge with us
There are some links i found:

Thanks so much for this!!

ICS tester here!

kindly send me msg if you have something to test(new release, apps etc) for i9003 for free! its because i use it also, might as well help ....hehehhe
which lead me to wonder if we have bugtracker of some sort(yeah i read threads for i9003 custom roms and noticed the bugs are reported in those threads)
You had to create a NEW THREAD for this?
You could have just posted it at the ICS CM9 or ICS MIUI thread?!
i would if i was allowed to post in dev section ...

Don't be so mean, if there's a qna thread for ics point him to it, no need to tell him off. Its a general thread, I've seen people post threads called 'official off topic thread's with it stickied and 'general thread here!'. I don't know if there is a qna for ics, if I would I would point it to him.

an easy way to do it would be for OP to get the files he wants and start testing, while browsing the forum and commenting appropriately on things they have questions about, etc. since I've heard there's a 10 post minimum before posting in the dev section, I'm sure reading around will help give them an idea how the forum works, and help the apparently unavoidable NOOB FLAME when questions are asked inappropriately. that may be part of the reason for the posting limit, you know
so, cyborg5, why not get those files, install, and read around a bit while taking notes of things you find in testing, and when you reach 10 posts you'll be able to provide feedback in the appropriate place?
thanks.. ive installed this port for 2 weeks now..problems i found were already posted, so to be safe..i didnt repost..and i also found this(tester call in irc)

Wrong place for the question maybe ?
Google search + XDA search are your best tools.

[Completed] where to upload roms please?

hello,
I posted about am month ago but the thread is now closed (search for a8-5500-hv) saying I had purchased a lenovo a8-5500-h and wanted to know if there was a way of modding the rom make 3g phone calls as it has 3g data & wifi.
The basic end result was that although no no one had the bits I needed that the H variant was the same hardware with a different rom. This information was from the russian lenovo forum.
Although at the time the rom was not available on the russian site. Two days ago the rom was posted! Along with the other drivers etc needed and some instructions in russian which translate poorly (and in places not at all!) some faffing later I have done it & can confirm it works.
THe original author has given me permission to re-write the instructions in English and to post on this forum if anyone else might want it.
I have it all & would like to know where on this fourm you would like me to upload the various rar files and directions?
thanks guys.
