If you mean app development you need java. If you want to be a chef, no

Chef = knowledge of Linux

Thanks for your replies... Chef means who develops roms?

Here is the link to the Kitchen
And to a thread started by Cyanogen
Finally to the Chef page

if you already are experienced in programming, coding a own app is pretty easy. Just watch a short video on youtube, read a tutorial and than start programming(learning by doing)
If you are not, well then it is more difficult :-D

If you can make a game in Java you can easily make a game on android?

This was a good start for me, but I still purchased a book because I prefer books than video.

Spamming the board and asking for things to break the rules, won't get you much answers. Just saying.
Good Lock!

You realize you are insinuating in an open forum your desire to procure illegal software?

Pretty clear that you haven't read much about rooting, so do that and ask again next week.

I think you misunderstand me quite a bit. I know plenty about rooting. This has nothing to do with rooting. ( i assume your referring to permission denied error) im not a noob. This error occurs in conjunction with terminal emulator saying the ubuntu img is corrupted. Its not. Anyways i was just looking for confirmation to see if anyone had actually got ubuntu for android working on n7000 and any advice they might have with this issue im running into

Oooh! Sorry about that then! Your post is a little hard to understand. I haven't tried to put Ubuntu on my Note, so i can't really help you. Hopefully someone that has done it will help you

its all good thank you though! im really surprised this isnt more widespread. i had to actually go looking for the idea of putting a desktop OS on an android phone in google to find it. i figured the CM team and well heck everyone would be all over this. imagine replacing your laptop/desktop with just your phone. you dock your phone and poof ubuntu is up on your monitor. the true mobile desktop.
EDIT: not to mention your phone would be charging on this dock as you use it....GENIUS! and imagine if everyone had this dock solution, you could use your phone at any of your friends/ families/ schools/ work/ etc...

Buddy, I 2 m trying 2 do so for last 5 months... But no success yet... M not demoralising u but there is no way you can run ubuntu smoothly on SGN

Device(s) closest in similarity?

Hey guys I would like for someone, expecially a developer preferably of our device to give me the name of the device or devices closest in similarity to ours for developmental reasons. I think but I'm not positive that the desire HD is pretty close. I know or I think lol that we've had a couple ports from that device. Does anyone know any device closer?

Yes..Here
Also please don't just write thanks. Click the Thanks button...

There are no stickies or topics in the link you provided. Does the device have a developmental thread here on xda?

I think Galaxy S is not most similar device .....
HTC desire HD was selected for porting because it has same System on Chip i.e. Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM 8255 .....
So, all devices which are built on MSM 8255, they are much closer to our device ....
Check this :

What is Latest BTU firmware version for UK SGS3mini

Hi all I have found the best experience for me is to have a Stock OS that is rooted. I have don't this throughout various versions and wonder if I am running the latest. Now I'm aware that the code for UK is BTU. But it might be that I can get an more modern FW with English with a European code.
I'd basically like to know what the bleeding edge latest version is and if anyone can point me in the correct direction to download a stock rooted version.
Cheers
BTW I'm currently running...(see attached)

my opinion is that you should have tried searching xda forums instead of posting
further to that you could have tried using google search
i would assume that since you have a nexus 7 you are familiar with how to search on google
good luck with your search @ninjalandpirate
man i wish the mods would bring in the iron fist ruling like they did in the tf100 section

Hi sorry if that seemed rude. After XDA decided to remove themselves from tapatalk and charge for their cloned tapatalk XDA app I spent the money and bought it. However when I search it i searched the whole xda-verse. So search fail yes but not my fail.
All I can do is apologise if the 60+ thing seemed rude.
Thanks for your links I'll check them out. Never thought I'd get a rep for not searching
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

As far as Google searching goes I have found various sites like sammy but nothing will tell me what is the latest FW. Clearly something I have misunderstood about the codes (AMG4 AMJ etc) how do you tell whether AMJ4 is newer than AMG4?
And more apologies I'm kicking myself for triggering your scornful replies. I am familiar with Google yes.
Is there a definitive list or timeline maybe?
