If ur a programmer and deal with a bunch of programming languages but if you ask how you probably have no idea
P.S. No I'm not a very good programmer, I did my fair share when on Uni but after that ...nothing so

Yeah, I'm not. I used to have a bit of experience, but that was a good ten years ago and lots has changed. I'm willing to relearn, but would need a starting point.

Try with C++ or Java, if you learn one you'll know 90% of the other -- that's what our java professor told us(8+ years ago) over and over and it's true
You'll need:
- Free time(lots of it)
- Patience(you might write something that's perfectly good but for some weird reason it gets you errors and all you see is that you missed a ";" somewhere )
- Reading(either from a book, or web) about syntax, about how to think like a programmer
What you can do with that?
Heck if ur good enough you can go as deep as a kernel programmer and why not make a 3.18.13 kernel for our 1+1 (haahha, kidding to do that you much be really crazy, you'll need to be a guru programmer also kernels are using C afaik not c++ and they are different, also going to 3.18.13 requires drivers(not open source, companies keep them for themselves) although you can do some mods and although not be a complete 3.18.13 to be close to that)

Any updates on this regarding development? Would love to see this happen!

Where I am starting ...
Because I am a new user, I have to create 10 posts before I can share a link, but what I did was search "firefoxos oneplus one" and I clicked on the link with the title, "Installing FireFox OS on a mobile device, " for me it was the third link.
After reading through a bit It would seem the first step would be to get the OS running on an emulator that works and then port that image to an Oneplus One emulator.

How to program Android apps

I've never programmed an Android app before, but a few years back I did do a bit of Java programming on my PC. I'm looking for recommendations on a book that gives step-by-step instructions on how to program apps using the Eclipse IDE. I have tried the training found here:
http://developer.android.com/training/index.html​
but I need a lot more details on the fundamentals with lots of examples.

For a start you shall use mit app inventor by google

Need help with the android API
I love android and more importantly, would love to develop for android . But the problem is I need some help on how to develop apps for android. Developer.Android is great, but there's no one for doubts and there are things that I cannot understand directly by looking at the code and other given info. I love XDA community because of their love for development, and I trust people at XDA for providing the right help.
I could really use some help on the issue, where do I look for getting familiar with API and every thing else to finally develop an app?
I am not asking for some complete guide books or something else like a complete tutorial (maybe yes but i think the they are hard to find and are not that substantial), just a happening place where there is some substantial material that offers a little more help on what developer.android has for develop.
Just let me know what's the best way for me to continue, even if it is sticking with developer.android and trying to understand it !!

Thanks. I will try out the MIT App Inventor. Just curious, how does it compare with the Eclipse IDE for developing Android apps?

MIT App Inventor it is just for a start! You can t do very complicated things but it is the best for learning the basics...it has virtual emulators, some useful tutorials, you shall take a look

Thanks. I tried the first tutorial. It was fun, but seems like a game! I think I really need to get back to the Eclipse IDE and learn how to use it. Anyone have other suggestions to help me understand the fundamentals of Eclipse.

I started with this. http://thenewboston.org/list.php?cat=6
you can use eclipse with android sdk of course. :fingers-crossed:
if you want to make games with 3d or something like that you can use unreal or unity.

Thanks for the tutorials! I'm in the same boat. I'm wanting to learn to develop, and the android and java sites leave some things a little unclear (to me anyways).
I built an app in one day, only resources were the Android developer website and StackOverflow.
I am 15 years old...
It's easy. If you want to do something, just search it on google. I had 0 java experience before!

Well you won't know it.
It is for Dutch students in my state/province/region. It is used for checking school schedules, check if student can stay at home (because a teacher is sick or w/e) and save schedules for offline usage.
ATM, my app is limited to support only 5 schools, wich are 10k students. It has that limit because the headmaster forbade me for the time being...
Anyway, it has a pretty neat layout and dus what it's supposed to do

Yes I have been using this for years too and never attempt searching on the site or app. Google will help my the site brings up non related content. Also first on xda university. I need to enroll.

Kinda guessed that the reply would be "Use the search". I haven't yet seen a guide that shows screenshots of what the code actually does. I.e: before a code change the ui looks like this [Insert screenshot here] and after the code change a Ui looks like this [Insert screenshot here].
I've seen developers create features for their ROMs, like quick settings in notifications and stuff like that. Building the ROM is one thing but adding features is another. I wish their was a complete guide out their.
A lot of xda threads are becoming more like court cases nowadays. I see people with feature requests and then the developer just rudely says "Thanks for Sharing!" And takes no notice as if what someone said was pointless.

That would probably be because it has been asked a few million times (yes, it's an exaggeration but I think you get my point).
A lot of people will be very helpful if you come in here and show that you tried to figure out something on your own. I've read all of this or searched Google and the site and haven't found the info. However, when you come here and ask a question that has been posed over and over again you can start to get a bit of an attitude. It's generally because you have shown no initiative to look or get the info yourself.
Would the guide you want be helpful? Sure would. It's not though so one has to a lot of digging to get the info. That is one of the ways you learn how to do things here at XDA. Then, after learning one can go out and write the guide that is missing.
Here is something for you. A thread explaining how to use Google to search XDA specifically. It's located in a specific device forum but is good for everything (and no, I have never owned a Hermes. I found it by searching ).

I think it's best to get a basic understanding of the elements you're dealing with development from there.
That's what I did.
But when I tried making my own from scratch I just confused myself.
So I did some tutorials that walked me through EVERYTHING so I could understand how things worked together.

I would honestly save your cash, and just use XDA. It's the best and there are so many tutorials here already. Books are great, I love them. But by the time you spend money on a book and get it, there is always something new out, or an update that will need more explanation.
I myself own a lot of books pertaining to linux/android, but they have all been passed up by a newer version, etc.
If you must, get the basic oreilly books like: understanding the kernel, embedded systems, etc.
That is just my opinion.

Custom Application Requests?

If anyone would like me to create an application based on your idea just comment bellow or shoot me a PM. Im playing around with basic4android and I would love some cool ideas of what I should creat! Thanks!
Will this require a donation? Also can you please release how you pushed the 1.29 update first?
Also I would like to request an app that can either block you from xda or block you from spamming new threads.

I'd encourage you to download the google SDK and become familiar with the Java+Android APIs. Basic and basic 4 android have their limitations besides that.
Unless you're extremely familiar with BASIC (even if you're extremely familiar with BASIC), i would probably go java . Things are really nice in android studio nowadays (most notably, the "intellisense")

I will definitely start at the Android tutorials sub forum.
Do you have unlimited data allowance? As I have found out first hand, this is a crucial factor in the way you will learn and progress because a lot of the good tutorials are in the form of YT videos.

Also depends on what you actually want to developer. ROMs? Android apps? Games? Something else? They all require slightly different routes. But a good understanding of programming in general will be a very good help in anything you do

I'm your age too I do developing primarily on computers though and I have been doing that for a couple of years now. I can say that the best place to start is to learn a programming language. Most Android apps are coded using Java so, if you have some experience with coding learning Java would help you alot. But if you have little to no experience coding I would suggest you start off with something like C maybe even python but syntax is very different compared to Java so C is recommended. After you have enough experience with that I'm sure you can jump into building ROMs.
Good Luck!

my problem is I don't have a unique and practical idea. I'd wish I could come up with something that would be lucrative & beneficial but those ideas are limited and I wouldn't want to do something someone else has already done.
If I wanted to learn I'd get the latest Android Studio & follow some "Hello World"- type walkthroughs. I'd think YouTube vids would be helpful.
Then try to latch on to an open source project since I'd have an existing project to see how it's done.

I've always found Head First Series to be good. Try Head First C or if your feeling confident try Head First Android Development. But adding on to what jawz101 said the best way to learn a programming language really well is to do your own project, also, check out "professional" open source projects to learn the style and even some tricks of the trade.
