I'm looking for something to get up and running quickly with Android development. Perhaps a great tutorial covering the basics. I see a lot of posts on getting started but the ones I have looked over so far aren't great. What do people here recommend?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am just starting to get setup for android development. I have installed pulsar and the proper sdks I think. I want to develop for the droid x.
I can't find any information on how to create a new project using the installed sdks. Shouldn't there be a project type for android? Nothing like this is showing up.
Are there any tutorials for getting started using pulsar for android dev?
Anyone know of any good resources to get me started with test driven development on the Android platform?

I found on Android website that SQLite is supported, but I plan to release the same app for Windows Mobile, Palm Web OS and iPhone as well.Could you please advice me on which database would be the best to work with for all platforms?EDIT:Maybe I should add that I would want all applications (mobile/desktop) to connect to a main server when internet connection is detected and synchronize all data that's changed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am planning to develop a game for all of the mobile platform and have pretty much zeroed down on the concepts of the game. but the only issue I'm facing as of now is that I have no idea what would be the best libraries + 3d Engine to us to achieve the best results on the hardware on some of the upcoming mobiles. I'm talking about the iPhone 3GS, the new WinMo and Android devices with the famed Snapdragon, other processors from Samsung, ARM, Qualcomm and even Intel and AMD.as of now i plan to use the ogre libraries for now, but then what will offer portability?? This is much more of a design question rather than just coding. Any help is appreciated, others who wish to collaborate are very much welcome too. just drop me a mail.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm beginning the process of learning the ins and outs of developing sites for mobile web browsers. Are there any good resources/communities online that discuss mobile specific site development issues?My initial understanding is that to cover different phones you need to build one site that is enabled for browsers with the webkit engine (iphone, android, etc.) and another more basic site for other older browsers, is this assumption correct?Also what does developing for webkit mean exactly? How is it different than just using javascript/css/html? Is it the same except that you limit yourself to webkit specific functions and css? I looked on the webkit site, but it didn't explain it in those terms.Are there any other snafus I need to watch out for when developing for mobile browsers?

I'm specifically targeting (in order) iPhone, Android, Blackberry. I'm proficient in HTML, and am getting into HTML5. I want to learn more about it in general, but specifically about using geolocation, detecting phone types, optimizing css, and a few other topics. Does anyone have suggestions on where to look?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI tend to believe that developing mobile applications in an enterprise environment is best suited by developing intranet web applications. That said I have been asked to think about whether there are specific enterprise applications that could only be accomplished or would be more successful as native applications. I am curious as to what the Stack Overflow community thinks.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI normally frequent the Nexus One forum, but have had to crawl my way out from there to come ask the wider Android community a question.
I'm about to apply for a mobile application development role and was wondering if any of you guys knew an approximate number of Android users (or point me in the direction of somewhere that might have the info). I was about to write something along the lines of the Android market allowing developers to easily (hum, that's an opinion there! ) share their creations with <insert amount here> Android users around the world, but realized I had no idea.
Looking out for theme development for various Mobile Devices & Platform:
Nokia and Sony have official Themes Creators/Preview and Manual. look for others also.
LG,HTC,Blackberry, Android,iPhones,Windows Mobile etc.
I am a C++ programmer interested in developing applications for Android as well as the iPhone platform. I have explored both these platforms by writing simple applications in Java (Android) and Objective-C (iphone). But the fact is that I am not comfortable with either of these languages, and it bothers me that I have to write 2 very different versions of the same application to support both platforms. (And then what do I do to run it on a Nokia phone?)Is using web technologies (JavaScript/HTML/CSS) a viable solution for writing apps which will run on multiple mobile platforms? I have heard of Appcelerator and PhoneGap, but I am not sure how mature these products are. I'd appreciate any feedback from folks who have used web apps as a solution for developing cross platform mobile apps.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am entering mobile development. I have been working primarily in .NET since 1.0 came out in beta. Before that, I was mostly a C++ and Delphi guy and still dabble in C++ from time to time. I do web apps quite a bit so I am reasonably proficient with Javascript, JQuery and CSS. I have also done a few Java applications. I started web programming with CGI and live mostly in the ASP.NET MVC world these days.
I am trying to decide on which platform/OS and tool to select. I am concerned with the size of the market available for my applications as well as the marketibility of the skills I will pick up.
The apps I have in mind would work on both phones and pads. Some aspects of what I have in mind will play better on the bigger screens that will be available on pads.
Here are the options I am considering:
Apple iPhone/iPad using pure Apple SDK (Objective-C)
Apple iPhone/iPad using Mono Touch (C#)
Android using pure Android SDK (Java)
Multiple platforms using something like Titanium to generate native apps from web technologies (HTML, CSS and Javascript)
Multiple platforms using HTML5 web applications that run in the browser (HTML, CSS and Javascript).
I would like to ask all of you if you know any good books, articles etc ... on development for these mobile platforms. I'm looking for learning material where the whole technology, OSes and development is discussed in great detail so i could gain a deeper understanding of the system as a whole.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy application is background application.It uses WIFI lock and INTERNET permission. It is doing some socket communication with a Remote Host PC and as well as with a local android application. It will start based on incoming SMS. While my application is running, I tried to use the browser application. Within a minute my application is getting crashed.(in DDMS log, I found the application process has died) And again I restarted my application, it is always getting crashed within a minute. I could not find the reason from the DDMS log. Someone can help me to figure out the problem.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want a countdowntimer to halt on a menu and also when the user goes from that menu to another activity. When the user comes back from that activity or when the menu is closed, the timer should still halt. However when the user went to the home screen and clicks on the icon again, I want the timer to restart. So my question is, is there a way to detect if the user has just opened your application, or if the user comes back from another activity or menu?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just want to get numbers of times to be used for each Activity.
So the very straightforward method I thought is increasing the count for an Activity when it was started. But how can I get the information?
How can I know who started(bind) service?
I already check 'RunningServiceInfo()' but I couldn't find.
Is there a way to do this?
Can you access the activity stack in a way to grab what activity came before the one now in view?
I have a situation where an activity needs to know where it was started from, so it knows what data to display in that current activity.
There's already been some discussion of this, in various lists and blogs. I finally got an AnimationDrawable to work, but I cannot start it from onResume. I can start it from a timer that onResume starts, or an onClickHandler.
I've poked around the source a bit and I can't figure out, specifically, what state the view has to be in, in order for the background AnimationDrawable to start.
Can anyone enlighten me?
