I really dont understand, #2 is far better of a rom than mine is. he actually puts work and effort into it, metropolis is just something i put together to make it look like im doing work

Haha i appreciate the compliment friend.. but sometimes nothing beats a pure clean unraped stock rom like metropolis.. your very keane on what you add into it and i slowly am begginning to realize why.. yeah sure it looks nice to have a long list of rom additions but sometimes even i wonderr if it all is worth it in the end..
From my personal experience.. using most build.prop tweaks may make your rom smooth at first.. but after a week or so its in worse condition than it would be if yu just left it alone lol
Lately the only build.prop lines i even consider looking at are for battery and even some of those are iffy...
Like i said #2 is just a hobby/personal project.. sometimes ill add something i think is cool at first but then 2 updates later i take it out haha tthats why i count on feedback so i can improve for everyone not just myself
Anyway cant wait to see wat tricks you have up your sleeve shabby
I started getting carried away there a bit haha

for anyone wanting the new secret codes for their devices on 4.3
keep in mind youll need to use *#*#HIDDENMENUENABLE#*#* before most of these to flip the switch and allow hidden stuff to show up

Start with setting up a linux distro and getting the sdk installed along with eclipse, i believe thats whats used for building apps.. as for language im unsure but i would assume c++ and or java lol im not very familiar with names and types all i know is they all suck in there own unique way

grab the sdk bundle at Android SDK | Android Developers for windows/mac/linux (whichever one you use) and set it all up. ive never worked on apps myself so i cant say for certain how to use eclipse, but there is LOT of free and helpful information all around. you will need to learn java as well as have an understanding of xml files.
here is an amazing list of app courses Free Online Mobile Development Courses (Java, Android, etc.) - xda-developers
if you wish to have something a bit more physical im sure you could find a few books on it, just keep inmind they will tend to be outdated. here is one that is recently released and covers not only eclipse but also android studio Android for Programmers: An App-Driven Approach (2nd Edition) (Deitel Developer Series): Paul Deitel, Harvey Deitel, Abbey Deitel: 9780133570922: Amazon.com: Books
