i would like to start developing programs for android.i know its Java' but i would also like to develop ROMs Kernels etc.
i heard that kernels are with C is it correct? what do i need to know to cook my own ROM? I'm not talking adding apk's to app folder, I'm talking complete changes...
i want to start learning Java/C/any other (i don't know the word for this, development languages, English is not my daily-spoke language)
i would also like to know how to develop a launcher, is it in Java as well as the other Android programs?
also, what knowledge do I need to translate a ROM to a different language? I mean the entire interface not RTL...
hope you answer soon i want to start learning ASAP...

Well seeing many developers at my age (15) It makes me want to be a developer myself .. One thing ; I don't know jack about android coding .. So I'm wondering where do I starT? What are the Minimum requirements to be a Dev? What tools Do I use ? I know that I might need a linux partition and I'm actually downloading UBUNTU Right now.. So If any Dev can point me into a direction of 'how to code for android' or something like that, that'd be awesome!

To properly develop a rom you will need A linux box (but a partition will work for some of it) Need to know c+ and java coding as well as being good with using linux.
What's a Kitchen Though?
I remember Using a online kitchen for my Galaxy Spica to make a Samdroid mod ... Is it like a easy making rom thingy?

The android kitchen is a way to make simple mods to a custom rom. IT will not do all the work for you to make a custom rom that is not just another modded rom. Do a search for android kitchen on XDA and read up on it. There is not simple way to make a rom. You can make a customized rom or translate a rom (MIUI) but neither of these is making a rom. If you trully want to make your own rom you will need to learn java and C+ coding
What program languages i need to start development? I have read many languages.
I have basic skills of python and many more and i understand programming. So can you give me advice where to start? i want basically start rom and kernel developing and understand how android works.
thanks for your time

Well for ROMs a good starting point is editing the ones thqt already work in dsixda's kitchen.You can find info on that on google.As for making your own rom you first need to lewrn to use linux( if you don't have any experience with that) and then its down to compiling. I will give you a full guide to thwt tomorrow when I'm on my PC.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26420861#post26420861 here is link on how to do it
Greetings!
Well, is how the title says. I want to start making my own systems apps. For instance, I want to start developing a camera apk for my GS3 but the problem is that I don't know how to do it. I don't know how to open those internals files like xml files(they do not open correctly with a note app), .rsa files, .mf files, .sf files, .dex files, .arsc files and the list continues. How to compile and discompile apks or flashable files...
All of this is because I want to star my own proyect, and through this way, to enter the android developing community of the GS3!
If anyone could help me to accomplish this I would be VERY grateful! If theres a guide (I tried to look for one but my research did not throw any result) that would be better!
Hope you could understand me because English is not my main language, but hey, I'm learning
Thank You SO MUCH for YOUR TIME!
Personally I think you should start to learn the programming and code from your toaster, but hey - if you want to damage your S3 - it is your free will (I hope)
OK, let's go to the matter, first. Assessing your coding skills based on your questions, I decided that you should start your learning from this.
Furthermore, to be more presice against your questions, if you would become literate expert in above linked knowledge, feel free to use
this as a small sample.
If it made you curious, why not try for even more interesting news?

I doubt, as he does not know even how to open xml files...
Well, I am now trying to do my best. I think I can manage myself with the info I found...
hello to everyone... is there any forum for noobies to ask for how to develop a custom ROM? I have download all the packages (SDK, ECLIPSE, JAVA, thats all i think) and i want to help u to improve or make my own custom ROM i dont know if this is the wright place to ask thank u for your time i have X10mini and i try every ROM in here and kernels
i try to google it or search in here but i havent linux pc or ubuntu so i will very thankfull if there is any guide for windows platform step by step which use eclipse and SDK
If you have no knowledge, you should forget about it. If you want to build from source you need to know how linux work and how to debug the most common errors. It's really hard to develop something original right now.
thank u for the reply... well... im not such interesting to built my rom as to improve an existing rom to working correctly... i try the sdk and eclipse but i dont unterstand many things maybe because im new in town... now im looking on cygwin and kitchen ... it seems more familiar and easy but is it for sony ericsson for example or im losing time... thank u for your time
