Recently there has been some issues with people thinking they are developing when they are not. Now this isn't here to call out anyone. I am here for one simple reason. To teach people how to develop on android correctly. This is an initial post to stir up some interest.

Simply I wanted to try and setup a google+ webchat with questions or comments. How-tos. This can all be done through a google+ chat. If anyone is interested just hit me up on google+ and watch out for the invites it will be in about 2 weeks.

I will be updating this OP with tons of android tips and tricks I have picked up. Currently finshing the first draft in a few minutes.

Thanks!

============

Installing the android sdk and getting adb working.
NOTE: You will need to install java before this will work correctly.

Code:
wget http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz
tar xvf android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz

mkdir $HOME/.sdk
mv android-sdk-linux_x86/ $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/

echo "
#Android Paths
export PATH='$HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/tools/:$HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/:${PATH}'

#Adb Alias
alias start-adb='sudo $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/./adb start-server'
alias kill-adb='sudo $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/./adb kill-server'
" >> ~/.bashrc

rm android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz
Now simply type in your terminal:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
or restart your terminal session.
then type:
Code:
android

Installing apktool
Apktool - http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
All apktool credits go to the apktool devs, I just use the tool!

NOTE: Install sdk using my sdk install guide in post 1.
Code:
wget http://android-apktool.googlecode.com/files/apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
wget http://android-apktool.googlecode.com/files/apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
mv apktool $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
mv aapt $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
mv apktool.jar $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
rm apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
rm apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
Now if your sdk is setup like mine and you placed it in this folding after following my sdk guide. apktool should now be installed on your system.

Using the apktool (quick overview)
You can simply do the "apktool if" to your framework resources. This is sense below.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if com.htc.resources.apk
then decompile:
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
compile:
Code:
apktool b framework-res
batch decompile:
Code:
for x in $(ls |grep '.apk' |sort); do apktool d $x; echo Decompiled $x; done
batch compile:
Code:
for x in $(ls |grep -v '.apk' |sort); do apktool d $x; echo Compiled $x; done
Languages to look for when removing system languages from apks:

Working with AOSP

Compiling SalvageMod

NOTE: Until kernel.org is up. This will not work at all!

Hey there, you are here because you want to be able to compile SalvageMod for your HTC Evo. There is one simple way to do so and its very easy. Here are the current versions of SalvageMod that you can compile.
* SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
* gingerbread (Development)
Please note that the gingerbread branch is the same as our "nightly" or unstable branch. As other releases come available this page will be updated with those branches. Now its time for the fun stuff.

Let's make sure we have all the needed files to compile on [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu 11.04].

Use this repo for java:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
sudo apt-get update
32 bit install:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush
64 bit users will need:
Code:
sudo apt-get install g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.4-multilib g++-4.4-multilib
Now we create a development directory, it doesn't matter what the name is or where its at. For example I always do:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/Development/SalvageMod
Now you need to install repo:
Code:
sudo bash
curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > /usr/bin/repo
chmod a+x /usr/bin/repo
exit
Now go into the directory you just created. This is where we will initate the repo we want to use.
* *Remember those branches from before?*
* SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
* gingerbread (Development)
Now initate the repo you want.
* Development
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b gingerbread
* Stable
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b SalvageMod1.3
Now sync it.
Code:
repo sync
Now it will do some things, could take a long time depending on your internet connection. Go grab a beer.

Now that it is done compiling there are only a few steps before you are on your way to a compiled SalvageMod rom.

Go into the supersonic(Htc Evo) device tree and run extract-files.sh
Code:
cd device/htc/supersonic
./extract-files.sh
Now you want to go back into the root of the build.
Code:
cd ../../..
Should look something like this:
Code:
lithid@lithid-Luigi:~/Development/SalvageMod$ ls
bionic    build  dalvik       device    frameworks  libcore   ndk       prebuilt  system
bootable  cts    development  external  hardware    Makefile  packages  sdk       vendor
Once you are here we start to get everything together. Run these commands. Then you will use make to build the rom!
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch salvage_supersonic-userdebug
time make -j$(grep -ic ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) otapackage
That is about it! After this is completed go into the following folder to get your rom!
Code:
cd out/target/product/supersonic

I would say basic linux command line functions. Like changing directories, running scripts, listing files, copy and paste, and removing, and text editing.

    Working with AOSP

    Compiling SalvageMod

    NOTE: Until kernel.org is up. This will not work at all!

    Hey there, you are here because you want to be able to compile SalvageMod for your HTC Evo. There is one simple way to do so and its very easy. Here are the current versions of SalvageMod that you can compile.
    * SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
    * gingerbread (Development)
    Please note that the gingerbread branch is the same as our "nightly" or unstable branch. As other releases come available this page will be updated with those branches. Now its time for the fun stuff.

    Let's make sure we have all the needed files to compile on [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu 11.04].

    Use this repo for java:
    Code:
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
    sudo apt-get update
    32 bit install:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush
    64 bit users will need:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.4-multilib g++-4.4-multilib
    Now we create a development directory, it doesn't matter what the name is or where its at. For example I always do:
    Code:
    mkdir -p ~/Development/SalvageMod
    Now you need to install repo:
    Code:
    sudo bash
    curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > /usr/bin/repo
    chmod a+x /usr/bin/repo
    exit
    Now go into the directory you just created. This is where we will initate the repo we want to use.
    * *Remember those branches from before?*
    * SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
    * gingerbread (Development)
    Now initate the repo you want.
    * Development
    Code:
    repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b gingerbread
    * Stable
    Code:
    repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b SalvageMod1.3
    Now sync it.
    Code:
    repo sync
    Now it will do some things, could take a long time depending on your internet connection. Go grab a beer.

    Now that it is done compiling there are only a few steps before you are on your way to a compiled SalvageMod rom.

    Go into the supersonic(Htc Evo) device tree and run extract-files.sh
    Code:
    cd device/htc/supersonic
    ./extract-files.sh
    Now you want to go back into the root of the build.
    Code:
    cd ../../..
    Should look something like this:
    Code:
    lithid@lithid-Luigi:~/Development/SalvageMod$ ls
    bionic    build  dalvik       device    frameworks  libcore   ndk       prebuilt  system
    bootable  cts    development  external  hardware    Makefile  packages  sdk       vendor
    Once you are here we start to get everything together. Run these commands. Then you will use make to build the rom!
    Code:
    . build/envsetup.sh
    lunch salvage_supersonic-userdebug
    time make -j$(grep -ic ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) otapackage
    That is about it! After this is completed go into the following folder to get your rom!
    Code:
    cd out/target/product/supersonic

    This is a pre-thanks. I am so stoked to see all you guys jumping into this! I, myself, just do not have time to try to learn all this, but it's so encouraging to see all the interest, and makes me feel secure that my evo will stay relevant for some time yo come.

    Thanks to all ;)

    That is the point, I am going to get the SGSII but would love to help out by creating new life into the evo for those who are willing to learn.
