Hi, you can check out the App Development Forums. It has many useful infos and links to Guides. Cheers!
Hi!
If you want to develop with android studio,
you have to learn first java and the basics at xml. I think the best way is to read a book or a tutorial. Better read a new book for android studio because android updates regular with new features.
Thank you.

If you are an Android Developer can you share your experience about android development? How do you start in Android? What is the first application you had done... thanks!
Greetings onebluemidnight,
You should learn how to program in java, their is great tutorials on the web and maybe on xda,
Then start off with the android hello world tutorial.
Good luck
This is mainly for games, but I highly recommend the framework Cocos2d-x. Made my first game for Android using it
Can't post any links but name is "Boomlings" on Google Play.
Edit: Granted the power of linking!

Thanks for your response mate!
I don't have problem with java because i used java during my college which is 2 years ago and i am a PHP programmer now
I am using Eclipse with ADT plugin and the great moment for me is that it is like a cakephp (PHP MVC Framework) structure whereas it has a Model->View->Controller
and i am done also with hello world tutorial

Hi there,
I am not a big android developer, just wrote 2 simple apps so far. I started learning Java then read an android development book. It took me about 1-2 months for the whole thing. I basically make a simple java number guessing game (the system generates a number and the user tries to match it, higher or lower) and wanted to port it to Android. It turned out to be a little more complicated than I expected since Android was much more object driven than my previous experience taught me.
You can look up my app on the market here :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danielsarfati.NumberGuessing
I found the "Hello World" app was much to basic to teach me anything, other than getting the whole SDK and dev environment up and running.

Thanks for your advice!
I am in no way a android developer yet im just learning stuff at the moment ... I referred newbostons tutorial its the best as said the hello world app doesn't teach your anything ..I think the best way to learn in go through and understand the source of code of the open source apps

Hi guys,
I'm really interested in android development. I know the basic of Java programming and now I'm looking for good tutorials and documentation to learn more about android.
The internet in a really big place and often I feel like wasting my time with bad tutorials... Can somebody give me some good tutorials/doc links or even books name ?
Thanks
I'm using the bookLearn Android App Development by Wallace Jackson, it's about making an advanced Hello World! app that teaches various things you can use in your own apps.
There are many books from that author, like "Android Apps For Absolute Beginners" or a book specifically for android games. I'm sure you can find a pdf on the internet.

Thanks a lot! I'll take you at it.
I am also new to ROM development(about a year) and the only advice that I will give is start with a ide(eclipse or android studio)a good book on android development,a download PDF on eclipse and android and start with hello world onward.Git your hands dirty.

Hello! I have started learning java for android app development. I ve bought this book called Learn Java for android development by Jeff Friesen. I also learn from other sources. But sometimes there are codes, that i cannot understand and i think that I ll never become a good developer.
Does this happen to every newbie? Please give me some tips if you are an experienced developer?
alternative to java
If you have problems learning java try basic4android, and you can develope apps for android in language witch is similar to Basic, easy to learn, but powerful

Have you tried an app tutorial? It might add to your knowledge base.
It is not easy to start learning java with some specific framework (like Android Application Framework).
When something is not clear in the code, i suggest you should try switching to the basic core java stuff and do some tutorials on that.
After that you will have an understanding and more confidence in learning android development.
Good luck.
Thnqq every1
Thnqq every1 for help! I really appreciate u people and i followed ur suggestions now i can do some medium level programming! thnx

I'm looking to develop an android app for my schools cafeteria.
They want an app that can display our menu choices for the day and can be changed on a day to day basis. I'm looking for any tips, considering I'm a beginner coder and would like to make this happen.
I have already installed the Android Studio and its up and running
