Learn about android internals(dive deep into the system) [closed]

Where should I go from here?

There are two books on Android internals that I am aware of:

• One, XDA Developers' Android Hacker's Toolkit, is getting lousy reviews, but that may be because it does not cover much ground beyond what's found on XDA itself. However, if you're not super-familiar with the subject, it may still be worthwhile.

• The other, Embedded Android: Porting, Extending, and Customizing, was supposed to be out in July, but it looks like the publication date got pushed out to August. I think that there is an early-access edition on the O'Reilly site for purchase.

Marakana's TechTV series includes a number of videos (e.g., conference presentations) on firmware mods. They, and a couple of other firms, also offer training on the subject.

You are certainly welcome to poke around XDA and its forum posts on firmware mods, but it's definitely more of a community site than a reference guide to the subject.

Beyond that, learning how the Linux OS works (kernel, drivers, etc.) would certainly help, as Android is based on that stuff.

And there's a new book out as of January 2015: At http://newandroidbook.com - Volume 1 of 2, however, with one more scheduled to discuss "deeper" internals

Nice introduction to Android internals is for example in slides for opersys course (http://www.opersys.com/training/embedded-android / courseware tab) - the slides are not fully self-explaining are they are may be a good starting point for next studium..
