Sorry Just seen this, cheers, got my Ubuntu 10.04 install pretty much done, just downloading the CM9 repo, now just looking someone is able to show me around the source code and how to work with it etc, for example im interested in getting into fixing bugs etc and working on things! such as camera (big issue for most fresh built roms to my understanding) i know bottom line i have no experience but with the amazing DEV's im sure i'll get somewhere soon! and hopefully be able to contribute to people's amazing work!

WHat do I need to start experimewnting with compiling AOSP Roms?

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)

Don't be offended... but...
Basic idea of a developer is that he's able to search for his problem and find it's solution.
Let's assume you build AOSP, now, you are facing bugs (which won't be less), now, will you create a thread asking normal users on how to fix that bugs?
If they would have known, they would have made it too.
Likewise, if you are able or keen to develop for device and can't find something by searching (yes, everything is already present on this site, just needs some searching), I assume you'll have problems at each step.
So, first try to search, there are several guides in Android Software Development Section and Android Chef Central.
There is also Compiling from Source Q&A Help Thread to post you problem.
And, one last thing, starting development with a device like Ace S5830i is itself a very difficult task.

But, he is looking forward for development
Theming and modding is different from development
Actually, very different

What's up, how's Paraná? Greetings from Rio de Janeiro!
You know, you don't become a developer from an hour to another. I'm 16 years old, and i know it's a long way to go to be a developer. I'm learning a lot with all the members of Xda, like iamareebjamal, Sq Matrix and bieltv.3. Xda have tutorials and guides o' plenty for you to learn. So, i'll be waiting for your AOSP build.
