I am about to start developing an android app and need to get an IDE. Eclipse and the android eclipse plugin appears to be the natural choice. However I am familiar with intelliJ and re-sharper so I would prefer use intelliJ.
Has anyone used http://code.google.com/p/idea-android/">http://code.google.com/p/idea-android/? Is this any good?
Should I just bite the bullet and learn Eclipse?

I am a student and would like to develop softwares for Android Phones. Please suggest me where to start.
I have always programmed in C++, Matlab, Javascript. I do not have so much experience in programming Java.
Since I don't know (and I don't think anyone does) when the next version of the Android Developer Phone that will support Android 2.x be available, can I use the following unlocked Android phone available on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Milestone-Unlocked-International-Warranty/dp/B0030G6HRQ/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&s=wireless&qid=1277232350&sr=8-23
To test my Android apps (that is after testing on simulators).
I'm planning to become android developer w/ Android 2.1 SDK For some reason I like to AT&T network. Since Motorola backflip is the only phone available on AT&T and reading recent reports that it only allows apps to be downloaded from Android Marketplace
I've a basic yet very important question:
Is it possible for a developer to write an app and upload to the device? If so my next doubt is how would I upgrade the OS from Android 1.5 to Android 2.1 on my backflip device?
I am developing my first Android App. I have an application already running on emulator (Eclipse + Android dev. tools) on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010. I have already tryied the steps provided on Android Developers Portal on this link, but whenever I try to list my already connected device using ./adb devices
I get the following:
mmaia@mmaia-desktop:~/tools/android-sdk-linux_86/tools$ ./adb devices
List of devices attached
? no permissions
I have checked and when I run the virtual emulator the same command returns:
List of devices attached
? no permissions
emulator-5554 device
Also when I ask eclipse to run the emulator it finds the device(galaxy 5), see image below, but can't find serial, probably because of some permission, than I am only able to choose the virtual emulator.
How do I configure permission to use Galaxy 5 as a device while developing for Android under Ubuntu 10.04?
Is there a plugin or something I can use to develop Android Apps with visual studio 2010, I'm most interested in free plugins.

Question, I can get a phone on eBay etc without a contract will this work to test my app? Or must it be an unlocked or rooted phone? Can I install and test my apps on a phone that has not been unlocked and does not nave a contract?

Good book for beginning android development

The "best/easy to understand" "resource/tutorials/guides/book" wins the answer!
I'm really trying not be subjective here. Most guides I came up with on forums, etc., date back to 2007/2008 so I guess I want something more recent. (Some of them are reeeeeally outdated).

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have an app that uses People provider. This is deprecated in version 2.0. I have built my application against API1.6 and set <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="4" /> Everything was fine until I wanted to run the app on Android 2.0. Not only is People deprecated it actually doesn't even work! So, I have changed the API I'm compiling against API2.0 and do the OS version check in my code and use People provider or ContactsContract accordingly. I still keep <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="4" /> so I can target 1.6 devices. Now when I want to debug in Eclipse it insists on running it on 2.0 emulator. How can I tell Eclipse that I really want to debug on 1.6 emulator? I have installed my APK on 1.6 emulator via the browser. It installed fine, but when I want to use People provider it crashes. I need to be able to debug it.
