Starting out development help - General Questions and Answers

I am looking at learning how to develop apps etc for android but have no idea where to start. would be much appreciated if anyone could give me any pointers of where i can get the necessary information in how to start developing and learning the language required in order to start.
I only have limited experience in C, C++, HTML and CSS so I could do with some information that would be suitable for myself to start.
Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can offer.

[NOOB] What shall I learn? and how to start porting newer android?

Right, I wanna start modding my phone now that i have some spare time. Just two things I need to know:
1. What code languages do I need to know?
2. How do I start porting a newer version of android to my phone when I know the languages? (any tutorials or guides or anything?, my phone doesn't have an unlocked bootloader so I know this will be a problem, but it still can be done)
Please just take two seconds of your time to help me
Thanks in advance
C'mon guys, all i wanna do is learn. is there anyone that can help me??
As far as I know, you would want to build Android from source. In your case, try looking at the CyanogenMod source.
There is also a wiki entry on the CyanogenMod website, showing you how to build CyanogenMod from source.
Knowlegde of C/C++ and Java will prove useful, as well as any knowlegde on Linux.

Android Chef Central is the place for you. You'll find many Tutorials for ROM building over there. Also, I pretty much didn't get what you mean by "intense C language". Well, sound knowledge in C and Java comes helpful when doing these stuffs, but mostly you'll have to encounter with lots of terminal commands for building/compiling. But when it comes to errors, knowing C/Java is helpful.
Man can you help me in programing the rom to perfect

Want to become a devoloper

So I've used android for about 2-3 years.
This is what i know,
Basic knowledge of how to root
Basic knowledge on how to unlock the boot loader
Basic knowledge on how to unlock the device for use on other carriers
Basic knowledge on things to do after root
No knowledge on custom roms
I was wondering what stuff i should start out learning or what i should google to begin learning how to develop apps/exploits/root methods/custom recovery porting/etc etc...
I want to help contribute to the android community...
I have always been good with electronics and i learn fast and easily...
Also, I don't know if this is impotent but, i have little to no experience with HTML, JAVA, LUA, or any other computer language.
Chef Central is a good place to get started.
Here's good tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763
