Hi, I'm not new to Android and I have experience rooting and modding android devices, But I would like to take it a step further. I would like to be able to develop my own Android OSes from AOSP to run on my devices (My goal is to have ICS run on my Photon 4G) but I have no idea where to start. I don't know what KIND of OS Android is Other than Linux or what kind of programming language I should learn in order to be able to port distros to my devices. I understand the basic concepts I just have no idea where to start! Any help would be appreciated and I hope to here from someone soon. =]
TL;DR Summary: What are the beginning steps to being an Android developer for porting the versions to different devices?

I wish to start taking devices that already have Android, but versions like 2.2 and learn to Develope a new Rom for it, for example 4.0.
I don't want to port anything etc, I want to take a device, and start building the ROM fro scratch, I have tried searching this forum but I only get results regarding developing for Android, apps. I want to tackle the actual OS.
Does anyone know a good way to start, tutorials? Further Reading? Etc?
I don't like the idea of waiting for the Manufacturer to produce the next update, I'd rather do it myself and learn.
Thanks for any help.

Hey guys uhm i am a programmer needing to know how the android OS works as a whole im proficient in Java C++ with a little bit of PHP and Python. Now ive been wanting to get into android development for roms and custom mods but i do not have a good knowledge on how android works. i mean i know basic things like ADB, Build.prop, the linux command lines for terminal, linux kernals, and other basic things. But if you point out a file or piece of android files/folders i would probably not know what it does or what it is used for. and i was wanting to know if there is a guide on all this. or a book cause i have looked around an all i see is how to develop apps and not develop for the source code. any help would be greatly appreciated and thats all
Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if this question should be posted here, so I'm sorry in advance if I put this in the wrong section. So, I'm getting into hacking by learning Java, C, and assembly. I'm also learning everything I can about Linux and I'm reading the Android Hacker's handbook. I was wondering if anyone can give me advice/suggestions onto how I can port the latest Android build to devices that don't have Android 4.4.4? How would go about doing this?

You need to be a skilled JAVA programmer: Android apps are programmed in JAVA.
