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

Do you know anything about programming? Do you know anything about Linux? Do you have any driver building experience?
I f you answer no to anyone of these, I would say it's extremely hard.
Thanks. I don't really know much about any of those things (Except a tiny bit about linux) oh well...

hey why give up so easily? if you really wanted to learn there are so many threads to get you started. first get a linux distro, ubuntu recommended for most people.
there's dsixia's kitchen around somewhere. play with that a little. read the script's he uses in that kitchen. you'll learn a bit.
then onto building. cyanogen's wiki shows how to build from source and set up your machine to sync with it etc etc. get those sorted and try learn the above mentioned
Cool!
Are there any links to these (Or are we not allowed to post them?)
Does it have to be a linux distro? Can I use OSX?
Hacking is cool, but the problem is that it is very hard, and demands a lot of experience.

This is where i started... hope it helps
Sorry about bringing back this old thread, but I'm also interested in this. I have programming experience with C, C++, C# and Java. I've also developed apps for Android. I've been using Ubuntu as my main operating system for a while now, so I'm good with Linux too. The only thing I lack is the driver programming experience. I'd still like some info/tutorials about porting ROMs, if anyone knows any good ones.
hey i been wondering the same thing. i been trying to play with m10 tools and been skining apk files with apkmanager for the last bit but have been wanting to port the ics sense 3.5 well at the very least re size it but cant find any guides, full guides to do this. anything pointing in the right direction would be great just dont say search xda been there done that. google works better.... but still doesnt give much info on porting besides some basic files to change but leaves out how to re size

Can't mess with 3.5 yet as they new files can't be decoded properly. For resizing you have to edit all the demention xmls on all the apks and m10 files. Lots of trial and error. Make sure you good with logcat
maybe this can help a little

[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.

[Q] How do you get into rom developing?

As the title, how did you get into it?
Did you learn C++ , Java and C before you came into this?
Or we're you just a linux junkie? ( if you are, the codes are in what language? )
No I'm not asking you HOW TO PORT A ROM, but just asking how you actually learnt how to develop or enhance a rom.
Hopefully someone sees this and answers me :3
( On android, btw. )

Starting out development help

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.

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.
