Hi everyone, i know there are tonssssss of nice people here on xda forums, and i was just hoping for some suggestions because i have to choose a project to work on.. any java game / application which is not too tough is fine. It doesnt have to be an original application, so i was thinkin maybe some simple apps which u guys love? I'm still not that good at it as i have just started learning bout using netbeans to develops the java apps.. i will have bout a month or two to work on it. please give me some suggestions? thank you everyone Much appreciated.

Well 1st congradulations on becoming a developer. I too in my spare time develop but I develop games. If this is your 1st time developing a complete project I would suggest a simple game. A game like pong,space invaders, or pacman. I dont know your level but those can be made relatively easy and give you time to add something to make an original twist. Since I program in C language I dont know if any of the commands are similar in java maybe I could help. Goodluck on your project and keep us posted.
This is proly a tough one, but one I would (and many others) love to see on our HD2 phones.
Netflix watch instantly app from our queue.
Why they half assed the Netflix app in the first place is beyond me.
thanks for all the suggestions guys! knew some of you here on xda would be happy to gimme some ideas. First i thought nobody was gonna bother replying. lol. thanks again and I will keep you guys informed when i decide what to do and if I need any help. Thanks a lot everyone.
I just noticed your handle; football-fan. I am assuming you mean soccer?
Perhaps combine your love for the game with your project and develop something relating to the upcoming World Cup.
An app that has the game fixture, match time etc. It could also connect and update scores and match stats as they happen. It could keep track of the heats and results. Keep a tree/chart of who wins and loses, who makes it to the finals etc.
I have no doubt there are plenty of people out there who would love an app like that. Especially considering you could produce something that is ad free. I am assuming that any official app that comes from commercial organisations will be plastered with sponsorship logos and the like.

thanks for the idea!
but my lecturer was saying it would be better if the apps that we make would require move.. interaction / input from the user?

How about a playlist editor for wmp? Something that would allow you to browse folders and select tracks and build a playlist from scratch.
It may seem a pretty plain application, but it would mean coding a decent GUI (that would obvously run purely on user interaction), but it would still have some more "gutsy" stuff, like system access, reading folder and files etc., and you'd also have to make sure you can build a playlist file. (I have no idea what format a playlist is in - it could be a simple list, but is more likely to be xml)

Hey y'all, this is my first post and I hope that I'm not putting this in the wrong forum.
Anyways, I'm seriously contemplating getting an HD2 (currently on a G1), but I'm still uneasy about the inevitable shock of switching from the huge Android app market to the lackluster Windows Markeplace. I can deal with losing most of my frequently-used apps, but I don't know if I can deal with not having any type of app available to quickly check sports scores (Major League Baseball scores in particular).
My question is this: Is there any app available for the HD2 on Windows Marketplace or otherwise that will allow me to quickly check MLB scores?
Thanks for any info!
^ ... quick bump for the evening crew
There is no sport app other than world cup. I've asked a couple times, and either get no answer or that their is not one. I would like an app that track all sports scores..
this is how i get the scores.
go to espn.com/mlb go to scores and then add that page to your favorites go to internet tab add as favorite, you just made mlb scores app and it reload automatic.
just use sports tap mobile save the page as a favorite then do a quick link! Thats what I did works great!!! Just like my old sportstap on android but without alerts

Hello Everyone!
I've spent a year writing a cool word search game, and I've just ported it to Android.
My Game is FREE and is in Google Play -
(if I wasn't a noob a link would be here) Google Play - Lexigon
Have a play with the game and let me know what you think!
thanks!
andy
PS: There is some proof that this game was enjoyed as far back as the 15th century, but don't listen to me read on...
( well if I wan't a noob, another amusing link would be here. search for 'LazyBrush', 'Lexigon' and '15th Century' for those will a will)
PPS: Maybe a kindly soul can post these two links in a reply?
PPS: Version 1.1 removes 'Read Contacts' Permission. Thanks for Comments!
I will check the game out..

Cool game! Do you get more points for longer words?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
Is there a reason for the app to read contacts?
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Hello again,
Thanks for downloading and for the feeddback!
I use 'Scoreloop' for the online high score and it requires access to contacts. I know it sounds scary but I think that is standard for any online high score server isn't it? (I tried using GREE but it seemed very alpha when I did the port and so didn't compile!)
Yup, longer words more points. Later levels more points. Nice coloured Lexigons more points, blue and green. Bad coloured ones less points, black and red. You can tap to select letters and double tap to submit word, or much faster just slide and release to submit word makes the game very fast.
Glad you all liked it, all I need now is more downloads. I feel like Agent Smith from Matrix....MORE....
Thanks again,
Andy
will try +1 download )
but why strange permissions are required?

I've done a little more digging why Scoreloop require, or should I say, in the integration guide said I needed to include access to contacts.
This article, (I'm still a noob - so URL changed to not be a URL), talks of another developer using scoreloop asking the same question.
http support.scoreloop.com discussions/questions/78-read_contacts-permission-for-android
Seems I can remove the permissions for contacts read without a problem. I will do that promptly.
Thanks again,
Andy
really fun game, thank you! Works perfectly on MM2.
Update
Hi,
So I've update this game without the Read Contacts permission. Game still works fine! Thanks again for trying the game and all the comments!
Have Fun,
andy
Great game, very addictive!
However, the game/server doesn't seem to be logging my scores...
When I start the game, it says my high score is 2800... despite having gone over 50,000 a few times. In fact, I just did 65,000 (? - not sure of the exact score now, since there is no record), it didn't appear on that game server.
How about a game pause/resume option, as well as a highscore chart on the phone itself (by playerID: points & level)?
And while I'm thinking , how about adding a different dictionary? I'd love to play this in Spanish too!
I'd also like to understand how to maximise the score, do the letters have an implicit value like in Scrabble? And how are they multiplied/(divided?) by the different colours? I see that getting a 6 letter word generates a lot of points, so is 6 much better than 5, which in turn is much better than 3, etc?
Hello all!
This is my first post on this forum so if I'm posting this in the wrong place, let me know! I would like to show off my latest Android App that I've been working on for the last few months. It has been a long path of changes, changes, and more changes! I've really enjoyed how far I've come with learning development. So here it is!
Planets is a educational app that is centered around providing users with information about the planets in our solar system. It also has info about other objects like the Sun and Pluto. I recently redesigned the app to make the content easier to scan and make it a little more fluid like. I have a community[1] set up with Beta testing for the people who want to test stuff before it's released to the public. I am looking to gain a larger user base but my main goal is just making the app look nice and easy to use. You can download[2] it on the Play Store and feedback/ratings are appreciated. So far, I've got about 1,400 downloads and I'm hoping to get more! Also, you can view the full source code for this app[3]!

Wonderful application, always been an admirer of Astronomy and this is just brilliantly put together. Will come back with a decent feedback soon .
I know it is easy to pick on any application but knowing how much effort might have gone in does help (through your github post).
Is it possible to convert the given units into scientific units (e.g. mass of sun = 1.9891 * 10^30 kg)?
Hi, I'm a fan of astronomy but I'm also a graphic, web-designer/developer... I love you app and, if it is possibile, I want to make some themes for this app!
Very nice app. Informative and yet easy on the eye. Looking forward to further updates.

I'm always up for more astronomy. Great work, keep it up. :good:
Very nice! Love the UI, looks very intuitive.
Some suggestions:
- use translucent bars on KitKat
- make the back animation consistent with the open animation. For example, when you tap a planet, the card zooms in to fill the screen; but when you hit Back, the screen kind of fades away (the default Android exit animation). It would be nice if it zooms back out.
- like @orville87 said, it would be easier on the eyes to express the units in scientific notation.
- Pluto isn't a planet anymore, right?
I would have asked for info on extraterrestrial moons, but it would seem too outrageous a request.
Subscribed, awaiting further updates
Which of those are the app that is being shown here:

Not enough information. Can you tell me how is this app better than the others universe related apps in Google Play? I appreciate your effort but if you want your app to be competitive he should add more features or at least more info because the info included here is common and can be found in wikipedia for example. There are also apps who also provide 3D model of the solar system with the orbits of all planets.
I'm not trying to offend you, don't get me wrong.

For being a high school student and balancing life and school and this, I take pride in the work that I've done. Sure there are better apps than mine with more info and awesome 3D renderings of planets, I'm not afraid to admit that. However, I'm proud of the work I've done and if people don't recognize that it IS work from a high school student and not some average middle-aged developer, then so be it. Thanks for your feedback :good:

As I said in the beginning of my post I appreciate what you do because I love astronomy and physics so it's good beginning and I'm not hating. But yet you needed something to stimulate you to develop your app. I wish you all best and I'm sure that you'll keep developing this app until it becomes competitive to all the apps out there.
