How to make my own flashing box??

[rabirabi]

it sounds amazing, no? i am asking for silly things....well i am very curious and serious to this topic & have an ambition to be a great programmer & coder for a flashing device since i am just a kid..
i have good knowledge in mobile hardware & software knowledge since have been working for 3yrs. so i need many good advices from users to this topic...
plz advice me how to start my this journey??? i mean what are the things that i should learn?
i had also googled in this topic but couldn't find intresting stuffs. if any mate has such information then plz share..........(in details)

no, even single man can do BUT there is A BIG ?

it takes time to finish your box,..

and there is many thing to consider and many books to read..even if you are already doing some coding..

but if did nothing in coding better STOP dreaming.....

[ypsharma]

it may possible, don't go for new hardware and software developement, just copy the hardware and re-program the software in your brand.......

i think u need some expert for this project ........

search u will get it.....

[bloodsavi]

Even I'm interested in creating my own box. I'm a developer but I have no mobile phone hardware knowledge. I'm sure there are plenty of experts in this forum ... Please advise. Thank you

[rabirabi]

well, since i m just 19yrs now & I think its not impossible for me.. As far I know I should have good knowledge of programming like assembling, reversing, coding, etc....also need to know about microelectronics such as microcontrollers,usb, data transfers, serial comunications or whatever are.
but i am still confused that from Where I should start?

[adhitya_1978]

Everything is possible
1. try to get data using USB trace
2. using market box its okay, usually they using brand FTDI (get some document in website)

with this method i thinks you can made simple flasher tools.
but for do more i thinks you should have many stuff .

[rabirabi]

one thing i couldn't understand, if i want only to make my own flashing box & its software then should i must join ELECTRONICS & TELECOMMUNICATION engineering or should i join the institute which provides following skills one by one?

step1 =learn about hardware, com ports, mobile comunication, platforms e.t.c.
step2 =learn about asembler, ida olly e.t.c.
step3 =learn some high level language (C++, Delphi, VB)
step4 = if all 3 steps is succes, is easy to make your own flashing box.

i dont have idea to where i can find such teaching institute. also plz reply me how much time it takes to learn above steps one by one. because i am here so curious to develop my own.

regards!

i have same interest.. good programmers guide us.......................... we need some useful information.................

Any programing is *** gifted
No one become a programer by any institute
So if u want .................................................. ...

To do that, you need at least a few years experience in programming (any language: C, Delphi, ASM, Java...), and when you've got that, you'll know the answer to all these questions.

BTW, you don't need a college degree or such for this thing, you can learn everything by online tutorials, references and examples.

ok, i'm gonna help you start at least. as Stikmann said, no need go to college, unless you want to be a computer scientist.

1st, You'll need Dedication, Time and Money

2nd, start here Arduino Tutorial - Learn electronics and microcontrollers using Arduino!
;; Trade schools use this tutorial as a two weeks
;; crash course in electronics and programming in c language
;; But don't rush it,
;; Learn it very well (both the electronics & c language)

3rd, Learn a high-level language like object-pascal, or c++ or python

;; Just choose one, & settle with it for few years.
;; Learning one of these languages will take you about a year....
;; Learning how to use it practically will take another year or two

;; What do i mean practically?
;; It means like what you did on arduino_tutorial
;; if i told you to learn c language first, it will make you bored & gave up
;; because it does't make sense of where to use it,
;; just a bunch of compiling & debugging

;; Anyway, what i really mean is after learning a high-level language
;; the next step is to learn its Libraries/Frameworks very well
;; Libraries/Frameworks, whats that?
;; Example, for object-pascal = Delphi, Lazarus
;; for c++ = Qt, Visual c++, Wxwidgets...
;; for C# & VB = .net
;; for python = wxpython, django.....

;; Learning a language like pascal, c++, c#, java, python whatever
;; is a waste of time if you are not adept in using Libraries/Frameworks

4th, by the time you reach this, you'll already know what to do

thanks. atleast some information

[rabirabi]

still confused....I tried to learn some arduino tutorials bt cudn't learn sufficient. some of my friends told me i should join electronics & telecommunication engineering to join this field. i m still unable to pick the target for start.
I am here in nepal,its very small place not enough colleges teaching electronics by part part.here are the facilities for computer eng, BIT, electronics & telecommunication engineering, electrics eng, etc..
i am so passionate to learn gsm programming that i m leaving hardware job to learn.

i have few questions regarding this plz answer..
>>>if i join crash course in electronics and programming in c language, will it be sufficient for me?

start with a RS-232 interface and some old nokia softwares like dct-3 or siemens programs
