I wish you the best of luck. If it were me, I would pick a device that didn't cost as much as this one when learning to Dev. A Samsung device such as the Prevail would work nicely. It's not expensive AND it has Odin which will help if you soft brick the phone.

They also have a good community over in that section.

Are you familiar with Odin? If not, here is a brief description. Download Odin Latest Version [Current 3.07]


Odin has saved my butt on several occasions when I was learning about Android. It's easy to use and as long as you have the files, you can recover almost any soft bricked device. Even though CWM is a great recovery, there's always a possibility of a hard brick when you learning certain things.


There is actually a good bit of info on Google on the subject. XDA is also a good source too.

LOL!!!! A lifesaver huh? It can save your phone when CWM or TWRP cannot.

It's also a very easy way change basebands, ROMs and such. I wish HTC had something similar to Odin. Heh, I wish they all did. LG has something similar but nowhere near as good as Odin.

How do you like the Venice? I came very close to buying that phone when it 1st cam out. It's a good looking device.

There's another phone on the market now that has a metal casing. Can't think of the name right off-hand but it's nice. For some reason I like the metal look. LOL

Hey, that's the One I was thinking of. No doubt. Great looking phone. Hey, how about that new S4 waterproof? That'll be a big seller.

Edit: it's called the S4 Active.

This is my 1st HTC and I must say that I am impressed so far. The phone straight out of the back is great. No lag, nice display, good feel. It's just a nice all-around phone. Imagine what it's going to be like in a few months. Whew!!! There are a lot of things going on over at XDA for the non US versions. I'm sure a good bit of that will eventually be available for our phone. As a matter of fact, some of it already is. You guys haven't seen it yet because it's being tested. I was lucky enough to get a hold of something a friend let me try that will add some performance.

Speaking of development, time to head over check out the Dev threads and see what's going on.
