I think Adam Outler should be a teacher for hardware people. Your way to explain things and your voice would be ideal for this job

Hey, Adam.

I'm not sure if you're the person to ask this. Even though you're probably the XDA member with most connections to developing, I reckon that you're more into hardware, rather than software, but, even so, and come to think of it, some hardware modding requires software modding as well. Anyway, to the point I go:

So, do you think that... in order to program for Android, as in, Apps, is it recommended to learn Java by itself before learning about the SDK and what not?
And also, even though you already got a similar question, where you said that it would take a lot more than what Oracle is doing to shutdown Java development, do you think that it is worth focusing on C#, right now?

Thanks in advance, and happy modding.

P.S.: I'm a newbie to modding and developing, I mean, not even a newbie, haven't done anything at all, but I do intend to become a Computer Engineer, so, I kinda want to start ahead.

I think code literacy is more important than platform literacy. Lern 2 code. Pick something that suits your interest and just start learning. There's specifics to learn on every platform and every language. If you get a single language and platform under your belt, the rest will make more sense.

Thanks for the input. I'm looking into Java, as I am quite interested in the huge Android community.

Anyway, have fun with your projects, and hope to see more of you on XDA TV.

How to flash with heimdall is my vote

Odex/Deodex guide ftw!!! Thanks for the videos Adam!

dhemke17 · Jun 3, 2012

Agree with odex/deodex...but not just a how-to, include what it is and why you would prefer either or...

idan_mo · Jun 3, 2012

would like if you'll talk about 'How to Odex/Deodex a ROM'.

-Grift- · Jun 4, 2012

Yep odex and deodexing

lots of kitchens for deodex but not odex

RomWiz · Jun 5, 2012

Odex / deodex would be a nice video

-V-O-Y-A-G-E-R- · Jun 5, 2012

I too would like to know more on deodexing

eejjay · Jun 8, 2012

I agree with the odexing part. Heimdall and Odin aren't too interesting because they are pretty much straightforward and will not add that much value I think

jaggyjags · Jun 9, 2012

Hi Adam, can you mention any software intended to reodex a rom as you said on your video?

I used android kitchen successfully to deodex a rom and after some mods would like to do the inverse thing. Any one got any clues?

Working on a HTC sense 3.5 Gingerbread (htc explorer)

seaskyways · Jun 12, 2012

Re-Odexing a Rom would be thoroughly helpful !! C'mon Adam

paxChristos · Jul 1, 2012

Dmesg, last_kmsg, and debugging for beginners might be nice.

Thanks,
Pax
