What experience do you have developing for android?
What programming experience do you have?
Have you done the hello world tutorial on the Android Developer site.
There really isn't a step by step way to code a launcher.
No xp ay all.

A launcher is not a simple thing to make. You need to start small and work your way up to things like that. Try something like a text editor as that will give you experience designing an interface, controls, reading and writing files, reading and writing data and more.
Like I said, start small and work your way up. Someone posted earlier a link to 200 android development tutorials. Have a search for that. If I see it again I'll come back and post the link.
Edit: Here you go...

I Have Four App Suggestions For Any Developers Willing To Take On Any Of The Projects!!
{Suggestion #1}.... Is A App That Can Be Run To Fix Parse Issues Sometimes Associated With Installation Of Apps, And If It Can Fix The Parse Issue, Specify Why!
{Suggestion #2}.... Is A App That Basically Asks Where On The SDCard (Or If Possible, Even Desktop) You Would Like The Current App To Be Installed, Similar To A Desktop Computer, Which Gives The Option To Choose Exact Folder/Desktop Location!!
{Suggestion #3}.... Might Be Reaching On This One, Lol!! But....
It's A Request For A App That That Makes Apps, It Would Basically Have "SIMPLE" Hooked On Phonix Options, For How Or What The User Would Like To Create!! Like I Said Probably Reaching Huh? Lol!!
& Finally Probably The One I'm Hoping For The Most....
{Suggestion #4}.... This Suggestion Is For More Options In The XDA App It Self, Such As.... The Ability To Bookmark Forum Page, Directly Return To The Last Page ( After Closing App), Upload Apps/Scripts Directly From Phone ( Instead of Home Computer), Edit Profile (Pictures), & Also Fried Request!!
Hopefully Someone Will Like At Least One Of These Ideas And Try To Bring It To Life...
Also.... I'd Like To Give A Quick Thanx To All The Developers!!

I'm not a developer, but in response to number 4. The XDA app is actually built off another app named Tapatalk Pro. The folks at Tapatalk Pro made this app special for us XDA users.
If you want a feature added, I would suggest contacting them. Best of luck on the rest!

Maybe reaching a bit if you want to create apps on your phone. Google has a tool called App Inventor that will help you create apps in a web browser on your computer:
http://appinventor.googlelabs.com/about/
What you are looking for is often called Rapid Application Development, or RAD. Searching for Android RAD doesn't help much, but it does show that there are other people looking for Android RAD.

I want to start making apps and maybe push them to the market. I dont know where to begin. I understand rooting a phone and pushing a Rom to it but I just dont understand how to make apps or where to start at can anyone please help me understand and learn.
Thanks
Hackaday has a tutorial on how to make android apps, it goes through setting up the environment as well as getting you into the java programming. By the way there's a $25 fee to be able to publish apps to the android market, it's one-time-only but it's there.
Ok great thank you

Looking to make an android app... anyone will to help?
I'm interested... just not sure what kinda app and plus on no developer.

So where do we start?
You could start off by using app inventor from google, no coding experience needed.
Hero with Sense 2.3
And then what do I do... I'm clueless....
apps are created in app inventor, by joining pieces of code together, you can then connect your phone to your pc to test the app.
i havent used it much but im sure that for beginners it will be quite useful. just do a google search for "app inventor" and you will get a website where you can download everything you need and watch tutorials on how to create your first app.
i believe there is a guide on here on how to then publish your app inventor app to the market. i'll have a look for you.

I have tried quite a bit of NZB Usenet applications for Android and have not been able to get them to work. I have followed a few tutorials and yet no luck.
Currently using NZBMonster (like the look)
http://www.appbrain.com/app/nzbmonster/org.nzbmonster
Would like to get some expert help with setting this up, I must be doing something wrong somewhere along the way. HELP!
Using the latest Sabnzbd on Windows 7. Not sure if it matters in setting these apps up but running Android 2.3.4 with the FI Gingerbread V3 ROM.
I think I have tried every NZB app on Android now. Still no luck.
BUMP? Anyone....help please!
Try nzbair. It has an easy setup via an online template and has always worked for me

Well that tutorial for that app would be nice if they second step didn't tell me to input a static IP. I can't get one of those, nor do I want one. I have done many other app setups that needs to use my network and access my system and didn't need to do it.
Any other ideas. I do thank you for the idea though
I am new on xda-dev. I find it very difficult to use this website.
First there were a lot of issues related to registering and login and now after i can login there are so many other prob.
The text jumps and flickers like a monkey for ages, and the page continues to load.
It was even difficult to search for things on the forum or even start a new thread.
Every time i had to keep pressing the browser stop button to stop loading the page.
The image does not loads for image verification and so i can not post any message.
Just for your info i use No script in my browser but even if i allow scripts on this page still i face a lot of trouble.
First you do not let people register, then you do not let them login and then you do not let them search for solutions or start a new thread.
Dont we have a simple version of this site where i could focus just on exactly what i am here for.
I do not need so much of spoon feeding in the name of interactivity and user friendliness.
Please advise.

I can not even use it from my computer.
In some browsers it can not be opened at all.
Too irritating.
Takes ages to post one comment.
Switching over the forum style to classic solved a lot of problem.
But the Captcha image still takes ages to load.
I have to close and reopen the browser many times.
Search still creates a lot of problem.
.
The problem is not why there is Captcha but why is it not opening easily.
Anyway for your info. after a new member posts 10 replies he does not gets captcha
I just wanted suggestion regarding what should be done to be able to easy communicate on this forum. Thanx all of you.
Every time i try to start a new thread, i have to write the title. The system is supposed to search for similar threads. BUT as soon as i do so the entire page refreshes and then there is nothing there on the screen. I have to keep doing that again and again. What a foolish way of making a website. I do not need so much of spoon feeding. Dont we have a simpler interface ?
What you describe never happened to me, even when I was new.
I think you need to focus on troubleshooting your computer/browser instead of complaining about the xda website.

What browsers are you using because I use it with Firefox and Opera without problem on my computer and have even browsed with my phones default browser without issue and am now using the xda app an I have less then 10 posts do you have cookies allowed or JavaScript enabled on your web browsers? That may or may not help

I experienced similar problems using the website itself. The app seems to work a little better.

I have tried, Firefox, Midori and Konquror on two different OS, Ubuntu and Mint but every where I faced some problem or the other. As i mentioned earlier, after i changed the website interface to 'classic' the problem reduced but did not end. Now mainly have problem with Capcha not loading at times or with the auto search of the title of a new thread. I feel the site is made more pro-mobile than for computer use. If some one has not faced these problems at any time does not means that there is somthing wrong with my system. The first time when I registered on this forum the entire page was simply flickering every moment, it would have been worth making a video of that I have been using dozens of forums but never had any trouble of this kind. I feel the system could have been made simpler.
With all the people who blatantly ignore the rules and requests, I don't think a ten post limit with CAPTCHA is all that unreasonable.
I like Linux a lot, but I don't think it's out of line to suggest the trouble lies in browser or OS support especially since Linux tends to be more persnickety than Windows due to market share and development, no matter where you want to place the blame for that.
If someone is having these problems outside of Linux, details would help narrow it down.
At any rate, it's not the forum's requests that are at fault, but the integration with something or lack of support.

Seems you did not even understand the question. The question is not WHY there is captcha but why it is creating trouble loading. And if it is bcoz of linux then it is strange as captcha is used in many other websites and no where i face any problem. Moreover there are others too who have faced other problems here. And i am not just facing captcha prob there are a host of other prob that makes using the website very difficult. Also how is it that there is problem some times and not there on other ocations ? If it was due to linux it would have been there always ! I would also like to remind you that Android is also built on Linux kernel. And any website that is highly OS specific is not a well planned website. Anyway it was just a feedback to help the site owners improve it "IF" they wish to. If they dont i can always find my way out
Thanx all of you for your help.
