I downloaded the SDK and hooked it up to Eclipse. I am also somewhat waiting for Googles App maker. I am learning to program slowly but I don't get where to start with Android because I cannot find any...good tutorials. I am "majoring" at programming (I put that in quotes because I am really an IT, but I am stuck at this college for now), but I am not that great.
I ask this because I want to make an app that will help me TREMENDOUSLY and I would also release it publicly. I don't really want to reveal the idea for the app unless I have to. It is a really basic app that will allow the user to store data and the app will make a graph out of it.
Where can I get some helpful tutorials with android developing? Is there a book or...should I just wait for Googles App Maker.
Um, do you know java? I'd say you need basic understanding of that. Then just go to a library and get an android dev book or find one online. You could always try google's own tutorials on their site by searching google for "developer's guide." (Can't post links so it should be top result)
Hope that helps...
Thanks, I guess I'll have to kiss up to my old Java teacher for help. And...also I'll have to find that book I borrowed from the library three years ago
they have 3-4 very basic guides: http://hackaday.com/category/android-hacks/
Hello people
I've wanted to make a Android app for a while now but I don't know where to start.
Can someone give me some pointers on where to start.
If it involves coding then be warmed I'm a complete novice at that.
No coding method: search Google for Android app inventor.
Coding and better method: Android apps use JAVA. Take some basic online courses, then learn the Android sdk. (functions that are specific to android)
Option b is better, and if you have a little patience it won't be too hard.

If you want to get somewhere forget the app inventor and invest some time.
Start by using google on terms like "android tutorial" "android hello world".
Download eclipse and the android sdk (google has all the info and tutorial on how to do that).
The sdk has ALOT of very good example apps. From 3D drawing to system infos and interface layouts.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Google app inventor is doing my head in.
if anyone is reading this on a scale from 1 to 10 how hard/complicated is making a app using coding?
Depends entirely on what you want the app to do unfortunately. If you can give some basic ideas of what you want it to do it will be easier to say how hard it will be.
well all id like my first app to do is when it starts up to show a picture with text then link you to a web page.
Nothing hard
Thats not too difficult, you could patch work something out of existing tutorials/example.
But its always relative saying how difficult something is.
It depends on the person...
Well sorry that's not helping much. I'm still at a loss on what to do.
Basically all you need to do is copy and paste the code from some tutorial examples, or you could even use the app inventor as you need barely any code to do this, for example:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/graphics/index.html
http://developer.android.com/guide/webapps/webview.html
Putting it all together and making it into an application shouldn't take you more than half an hour once you have gone through the starter tutorials to understand how and what it is you are using.
Ok I'll try that.

omg
i really wanna learn, so i went to purchase course and

are you serious??
Well if you are really determined to learn it, you can manage doing it on your own too, with the help of free online resources. Search for a tutorial series on youtube. Here's one I had found useful when I was learning:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl-zzrqQoSE
You should also buy a good book on Java programming and read it. That would help a lot too.
read android developers guide
You can check android developers official site it has lot of tutorials and resources.
You can go to next university library and borrow any Android book. It will not include the latest version of OS, but it will have lot of fundamental information in one place, written by one person. Tutorails often show you how to solve single problem only.
Thank you
Also great video
You're Welcome! Yes it is a great video. That guy really does explain it nicely.
Is App Inventor still working?
Look also at cornboyz tutorial on youtube. Same guy, slightly different tuts
I found this listing while applying for a position in the consulting and finance industries and it looked like something one of the Devs here might be interested in.
I don't know if I'm allowed to do this, so if a MOD could set me a pm if not, I'll happily remove this posting so you don't have to.
ANDROID DEVELOPER needed for the development of interfaces with Web Services using Android API. The term of the project will be long term if the candidate performs well.
The rest of the posting can be found in the zip file below. There is a pdf of the posting at the University of Rochester Career search site, as well as the posting's original listing at Dice.com, which I find easier to read.
I wasn't sure where anything like this would go, so I made sure to put it in a forum as general as possible.
I'm a beginning web designer, but seeing as I spend most of my free time on this site, I'm growing more of an interest in learning to code for the mobile platform. If anybody is willing to help, all I'm asking for is a few tips from developers here on where to begin.
I learned some very basic java in college, but was wondering if there is a better path to go on. Do I start with BASIC? Do I continue and go towards more advanced Java and stick with only one programming language?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
-Considering I've done almost everything that I can with my rooted EVO, all of you were the people I'd rather hear from. I appreciate all of the hard work that you all have done!
You can develop full market apps using the language I use called basic4android.
Its easy to use but very powerful, produces a native android apk (so no interpreters) and has regular updates.
There are free user contributed libraries that make it even better and it has been used to produce everything from live wallpapers and anti theft apps to games and gps software so is a good option to consider.
I wrote my first app after messing about with it for about an hour and was amazed how easy it makes things. Google basic4android and you will find its homepage for more info. I can't remember the address as it's saved as a bookmark on my pc not phone.
EDIT: did a google search and its at http://www.basic4ppc.com/

Hello.
I believe DroidScript is capable of accomplishing this task. I only mention that due to the fact that you were fairly vague when specifying what scripting language you had in mind (if one at all). You merely said, "The script."
If you're unfamiliar with Javascript: It's okay! It's about as easy as English or mathematics. DroidScript has tons of predefined examples, demos and even plugins demonstrating full fledged games (simply to demonstrate the power of the scripting language).
DroidScript also has a quick-reference guide built in (easily accessible). The interface is 4/10 for churning out code. Fortunately! You can utilize a keyboard with the program I believe; Or simply port it from your other favorite machine (laptop?) and "share" it (e-mail yourself) with your device (phone).
Hope this helped.
Bro first of all thanks for you replay but I want some more information bro I working on andriod app which contain two different search engine data in one place can I make this on driod script
