[Q] Starting Custom Firmware

Just need a little guidance please, I've done a couple of custom firmwares in the past for the original PSP when it was first hacked and have missed the tinkering.
I'd like to have a go with the ZT-180 tablet V2 that runs Android 2.2..
I have the latest build ready to take apart etc but I was wondering, is there a guide (or can someone help) on testing this on an emulator first and making sure that I don't brick my wifes tablet when testing!!!?
I did a search but couldn't find specifics on if it be OK with tablets and using emulators?!?!
Thank you

Step by step guides already exist in the forum, follow them carefully.
In short, you have 2 options:
Upgrade to ICS, you'll have both stock roms and custom roms with all 3d features
or
Upgradre to JB, you'll have only custom roms without almost every 3d features.

Porting a kernel.

Hello,
I am pretty sure this is a fairly common question and everyone would like to have kitkat on his device. I can use google to find out most of the tasks i am about to do, but i have to ask first.
I have a pretty anonymous device, a Chinese phone, rebranded in Europe. It features a hardware similar to this: mediatek MT6577
However the manufacturers only released a 4.0.4 ICS Android for it, and the comunity managed to develop a 4.2.2 JB. It is important to know that other manufacturers have rebranded this phone as well.
It is known as Allview p5 duo, Fly IQ441, Walter Primo G1(i think) and other brands.
What would i need to make a kitkat ROM image for this model? How hard is it to "port" a kernel that was in ICS to 4.4? What tools would i need, and also what knowledge?
I hope some dev sees this post, sheds some light over the issue and points me in the right direction. I really want to learn about Android OS developement and i feel this is the best way. Also i want kitkat on the phone.
Thank you !

developement
Thank you for your answer. I would also be interested in actual development as it is an area that interests me. What would i need to actually be developing parts of the Android OS. No dalvik parts related, only the OS / kernel parts. Do you guys know any good books on this?
Is there any full kernel source of mt6589? Gonna sell my device (Though I have HTC one)
