You can get the tutorial of the CCParallaxScrollNode by which you can do the endless scrolling of the Background. I dont know the exact link but you need to download the 4 files they are

  1. CCParallaxScrollNode.h
  2. CCParallaxScrollNode.mm
  3. CCParallaxScrollOffset.h
  4. CCParallaxScrollOffset.mm

Now in your test demo implement the below code

in your .h file code is 

    CCParallaxScrollNode *parlax;
    CCParallaxNode* paraNode;

in .mm file you need to declare before @implementation set

float myVelocity = -4;

the below code in init method

CCSprite *clouds1 = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"Default.png"];
CCSprite *clouds2 = [CCSprite spriteWithFile:@"Default.png"];
parlax= [CCParallaxScrollNode node];
[parlax addInfiniteScrollYWithZ:0 Ratio:ccp(0.5,0.5) Pos:ccp(0,0) Objects:clouds1,clouds2,nil];

[self addChild:parlax z:-1];
[self scheduleUpdate];

-(void) update : (ccTime) dt
{
    [parlax updateWithVelocity:ccp(0,myVelocity) AndDelta:dt];
}

The sprites can be replaced with your own sprites also you can do some modification for the Landscape also. The code is for the portrait mode

One of my favourite sites for cocos2D tutorials is Ray Wenderlich. You'll find loads of cocos2d material there.
