[Q] DEVs, please help me! - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm a 14 yo guy from Hungary. I think I'm an experienced user but n00b in development. And my dream is to become a developer. So I have these questions:
1: How can I port CM ROMs for x8?
2: How can I port from AOSP for x8?
3: What kind of PC do I need for it? (Like processor, RAM, etc...)
4: Do I need any programs on PC?
(I'm on windows xp professional)
Thanks anyway:

Android = linux so I would learn how to use linux

granted im no android dev. However I have created programs in JAVA and basic ( + alice but I dont really count that as coding )

Sorry sorry mate

well your going to need ADB . and most computers out there can handle developing. so anything id say that is greater then XP could dev. but speed if you want it to bring down loading time is good but that comes at a price. if you wanted to be on the safe side get something with i3-i7 and DDR3 ram . did i mention learn how to code? that is most important part is learn the way Linux works. because android is basically Linux in mobile form.
look at the first link first and if it doesn't have what you need you can wing it using the 2nd which is your basic files your going to need..
(i hope this helps more then before )

[Q] how do I USB teather on 2.3.5

Hi I want to USB teather but it said that the kernel does not support it.
Any ideas or fixes for this. I'm using 2.3.5 and my pc is windows xp. Here's what it said the kernel needs.
This means that the Linux kernel on your device does not have the features (CONFIG_NETFILTER/CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES and/or RNDIS) required for tethering. If you have an ADP G1, please read (or ADP16KernelUpdate if you're using Donut), otherwise you will need to find a firmware/kernel with these features.
lol doesn't mean nothing to me can anyone help.

I know it sounds a bit mad but have you tried Linux installer from the market to see if will install needed drivers and libs? Looking in genral thread about dual boot linux read it quite interesting was half way through his Tut when next day sd went gunna try again? Don't know if it helps?

[devq] dev question

Guys, i am gonna make a ROM
So, i need majority suggestions.
Here is what i suggest. Please counter-suggest me.
AndroidOS v1.6
Features:
iOS Like(Everything. Inclu. Notifications center)
Undervolt to 600MHz
RAM consumption(MAX 100MB, which means you have 378MB Free)
Undefeatable battery life
V6 Supercharged
3G Optimized.
KICKEDASSED Kernel
If you want to know why I choose 1.6, it is due to its lightness.

Donut? You seem to start on the harder side buddy. What I can suggest before making leaps and bounds is create a ROM on sources that are available. I am not here to discourage you, but you should know what you are trying to make. People who started cooking/deving here (including me) learned from simple things first.
My question to you is have you made a bootable personal ROM regardless of version or make? I am no dev, but I can suggest...
1. Start learning to deodex.
2. Start learning creating/cooking your personal ROM. (CM7/V20stock)
3. If you successfully created your own ROM, start installing Linux and learn to compile.
4. Share the ROM and ask for opinion.

Noob!! You can use a virtual box; and doesn't matter if you have windows 8, 7, vista or xp, you can still partition a HD and multiboot. As time goes by, every post you do makes you look even more noob.

Windows can't. Tools can.
But what if your PC is really incompatible? Use VMs.

I better liked your idea of porting ios.
Im also waiting for new threads where you start porting beos and amiga os and others. I would love to run dungeon master nativly.
Also remember: before you have anything done create new thread in dev section - let the people know that you are not sleeping.
And before starting actual development someone should make cool logo and boot animation - without those things every project will fail.

I don't know. As I know he working on a rom (maybe on boot to gecko or maybe different rom) a kernel and a loader what can boot kernels from non protected areas (kernel changing without pc).

ok,
seems interesting but im not that optimistic about it(firefox os)...
I'm not interested in this thing, so I'm neutral. As I see feherneoh have more knowledge about android than the most "dev", but I don't know this is enough or not to reach his own goals.
Try to be optimistic, maybe another dev join to this project.

Haha, look what I found, first Firefox os phone is made by ZTE which is using an arm6 processor & 250 MB of ram .
So it's compatible with a6 CPU & maybe our tiny RAM memory

From what I have read it seems that Firefox os will be for low budget devices,but the low budget device before 2(maybe 3) years(x8) and the low budget now are very different...lets wait

if there is please tell me a download link
or if theres a way to get full official windows phone 8,
thanks
It's not possible to install windows phone as it's Microsoft and totally locked down so there's no way to port it. Android being android does allow developers to create their own launchers though which are the front display packages. Try launcher 8, it's very good, use it myself...

what ? of course i know i have a note 1 gt n700
Shlt. Maybe now it's the time to leave the internet...
There is no windows phone for unlicensed model phones. Windows phone is closed source, so you can copy the rom, that's not a problem, anyone can hack in and grab a rom dump, but there's no way to write the kernel with the drivers necessary to connect to all the hardware, so it would be completely useless and probably wouldn't even run on an unlicensed phone.
