Android development idea

Hello to everyone!
I've been learning to code for a while so to create my own application/software idea but the problem is that I found out that it isn't really my "area". The thing is I still got this awesome idea that I really want to be developed. It's pretty obvious that I'm not just yelling out what the idea specifically is...but... I need someone that:
1- Knows how to develop an app and release to it in "play store".
2- Good all-round(by this I mean can easily jump from one problem to a completely different problem)(I don't need a "programmer or nothing")
3- Well motivated and friendly.
4- This idea obviously needs some funding. I can do that on my own if you don't want to. Without a doubt the profits will be split between us (This will be later accorded when we meet up)
The idea basically is: Develpment of an alternative market. Come on read on... By market I don't mean Aptoid,Snappzmarket where people can steal software...It's a different market.
The idea won't make you a billionare! But it has an incredible amount of potential if done correctly...and that's where I need you.
I currently live in Italy but can travel anywhere in Europe without any problem.
If anyone is interested in this please contact me via PM. I'm relitively new to xda developers but I have been reading loads of great stuff on it so THUMBS UP XDA! I'm not posting my email address for SPAM reasons.

[Q] Developing Apps for Android

Hello Guys,
I've been willing for a while to start developing for android .. I heard from many people that I need to know Java, that is OK since I'm a developer and Java was one of the courses I learned during college. But now, for android, I don't know from where to start, what tools to have
Are there any online tutorials to teach at least from where to start?
How can I create the APK file?
Finally, How to submit to the play store?
Thanks.

Google has a whole entire web-site devoted to this very topic that covers everything you're asking.

Hmm, I think these all are nice tutorials:

[Q] Newbie wants to develop an app. Not sure how.

I would request to please read my multiple times as I am confused on how and what to ask.
I am average C# web developer by day. I hear a lot of kids developing apps and I am curious, plus I have a need. I use reddit app on my nexus 7 running on Android 5 and I feel I can make it better. So I decided to make an app myself. I dont even know how to load a custom ROM in my nexus 7(Just to give an idea of how clueless I am).
The "what" was easy, but the "how" is where I am lost at. The options I have understood from googling is that I have to use JAVA based android SDK or Apache Cordova. Not sure how. Can someone please suggest me what to choose. Which tutorial to use? If there a sample app, I have play around figure my way around.
Atleast point to the right place to ask questions. Please reply in with least tech terms.

[Completed] Why does this Forum website make me suicidal and/or murderous with its complexity?

I consider myself a rational intelligent man but I find this site insanely complex, non-intuitive,an extremely frustrating! After sleepless hours and hours and hours and hours of trying to familiarise myself with this place, this 64 year old man is sitting here in tears trying to find his last post among other simple tasks attempted. Does there not exist here, a simple starting tutorial to introduce one to the basic workings of this place? Please help.

My problems partially solved.
My problems partially solved ...
I FINALLY found a downloadable and functional apk for this forum's app (Google Play store will not play with my device at present ... That is one of the reasons that I am here) ... and that is helping me a LOT!
Perhaps it would be a good idea for you to make it a point to strongly recommend the XDA forums app to newly arriving members here.
I TRULY think that the website UI here could use some development to make it much more new-user-friendly, however.
... Another point ...
Maybe I am missing some kind of search filtering option, but, I do not see any value in hundreds of thousands of non-applicable and irrelevant search results when trying to find something here. Perhaps someone could direct me to such filtering options if they do, indeed, exist.
In closing, I must say that the reception I received when joining here was very pleasant and I am already on my way via some help
and advice from a couple of members here to solve my crashed Play Store problem.

I personally find hundreds of thousands of non applicable and irrelevant search results on very specifically searched items very very very unhelpful...

You should be able to see all your previous posts in your profile and link to the thread there. Xda is confusing unless you know what u want from it. For me if i have a question i just pop it in xda search bar and relevant threads pop up. But if u want to learn everything then u have to come up with a specific thing first theres not really a guide to it all. But u should be able to find almost anything with the right search. If not post question in a help or q&a thread. I will help just let me know what u r looking for

I simply HAD to tether to my PC as I simply CANNOT function on this site via my smartphone ... it is HORRENDOUS. I can't even figure out how to THANK people hardly or reply to their help ...
DAYAM ... what takes seconds here takes HOURS there ... SO MANY BUGS ... photo verification of reply to prove I am not a robot half way off the farking page ... and MANY MANY other concerns.
The help is great but the UI is SO unfriendly !
Anyways ... thank you for your responses and I will be much less tense now that I am on my PC

No I know how to tether ... but I have not been bothering even when at home. I have been so stupid til now. I was just emphasizing how much easier it is to communicate with this site from a large computer, monitor and keyboard is all.
Thanks tho

Suggest a guide for developing stuff for Line Deco

Hey everyone!
Well I found this app called Line Deco, and it's pretty good. I also saw many paid stuff in there.
So I was wondering how to develop themes and widgets and things for this app.
If anyone knows how to develop for it, like a guide or a tool maybe, please explain.
Thanks!
