Hi!I've been a member of xda for almost 5 months now, and I know how to flash roms, use recovery,hboot, change radio/spl, etc. Basically, the basics. But now I want to learn how to develop, scripting, github, etc. But I have no idea how to do any of this stuff. The most I have done with those areas is install adb on my computer. I am a serious learner and I will have plenty of time as summer is coming up and I will be out of school. I need like some guide to show me how to do all of this for someone like me who doesn't know anything. So plz help me out with links,guides, or anything else that will help me. Thank you. Please remember I have no experience with development. I need a completebeginners or noob guide

Thanks for the response. I will check these out.
I know nothing about java or c++ do I need to learn both of these? What areas exactly do I need to learn?
Any websites, links tutorials, guides, videos, etc?,

The subject says most of it.
I would like to start learning how to compile ROMs but I don't know where to start. I figured the biggest Android developer site might yield some useful input from the more experienced developers.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Chris my name is Andrew and i might be able to give you some basic info and guidelines. First i would suggest using a ROM kitchen for basic ROM modding. I would recommend using Dsixda's ROM kitchen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246 .When you feel confident that you can get on tothe more complex stuff you can check my tutorial about compiling from source code http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667551 .After you get over that then the Internet should become your mentor in advanced source code editing (most of the time anyway but you shouldn't feel shy about asking something if unclear)
Hi guys,
I made this thread for all the developers to discuss about their new projects, errors while building, source building, help and support, CM bring-ups, patches and fixes, since we don't have a "Developers discussion" forum for our devices and developers too. :laugh:
It's a nice place for newbies like me to learn a lot from the awesome devs here. :highfive:
This place is just for developers and people trying to build ROMs from source or kernels.
NOTE- THIS IS NOT A PLACE FOR BUG REPORTING OR REQUESTS
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THE PROJECT PLEASE PM ME YOU NAME.
Try to keep this thread clean :angel:

How to download cm10.2 source.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52339783#post52339783
This local_manifest made by nolinuxnoparty is kinda a messy(From my point of view).
https://github.com/nolinuxnoparty/android_device_samsung_delos3geur/blob/cm-10.2/README.md
It messed up my source(whole).So just to prevent if anyone downloading any source code ,download the source first than make a backup of it than mess with it
RESERVED
i found this device tree (cm 10.1) https://github.com/OUDhs/android_device_samsung_delos3geur
can this be used to build cm 10.1 for our device??
to me it seems like this device tree is incomplete...
also if someone has any knowledge about device tree pls teach me what it basically is and how it works... if you know of any threads about device tree pls send me the links...
Tks..
Nolinuxnoparty has revived the project on github of cm11 branch
cm11 source on github by nolinuxnoparty

Don't know about that source code looks incomplete to me...
A device tree is a tree data structure with nodes that describe the physical devices in a system.Device tree is basically a colletion of data about our phone.It is like a king and source code is like a worker .It tells how to make changes in the source code to make for custom rom etc.... for our phone:laugh:
Here read this:
http://elinux.org/Device_Tree
If you want to make than try this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11352709/android-device-configuration-for-aosp
please correct me If i am wrong

Friends ... pardon my intrusion, but I've been reading the topics about our grand quattro for this CM ROM, I do not know desemvolver noob and do not have a legitimate developer today ...
But the tree of the handset MOTO G would not help us because it is a device compared to ours and already have CM ROM would help? If yes glad, if not sad I apologize ...

Hello XDA Users,
I am interested in starting to compile custom roms for my galaxy s4 (GT-I9505). I already have a spare laptop with sufficient specs to be able to set up the building environment, but i need a guide which will allow me to understand and learn what libraries and terminal codes are needed in order to be able to select a custom rom and compile it from GIT.
Any guides or help will be greatly appreciated
Cheers
