I had an idea for a game last night, but i have no experience making game applications, or any type of application for phones. I'm really looking for someone that knows how to code to maybe bring my idea to light, i feel somewhat confident that my idea is somewhat original in the sense that i don't think I've seen a game of it's type on the play store. I don't want to give any specifics about the game on here to keep my idea my own for purposes of future advances, if i can find someone capable, and willing to be a partner in this goal i have. please send me a PM on here if you feel capable of maybe dabbling in such a project, and we can possibly discuss further the goals i have for this game.
Bump, It's a pretty good idea! lol
Its hard to find a person that'll take up such a request. Its possible but I reckon, the best way you can make your idea into reality is by doing it yourself.
I have had many ideas, and I barely knew any coding languages. So I sat at my desk and researched and asked for help with coding. And guess what? I made my ideas into something that can be used. Like the launcher I wished to create.
Give it a go, you'll benefit from it.

I think if i can find someone willing to take on such a request, i might be interested in getting a kick starter going, i'm still working on the layout of what the game is going to be, i have a lot of ideas for the game, it's just selecting and weeding out what i want and don't need.
Sounds like something interesting. I am not that great with game development so I can't help you out here.
Hopefully someone takes up the step to help you out. Sounds interesting.
Good luck

hey guys im trying to find someone to create an app, I have no idea how complicated it would be to do it but I am looking for an app simialer to strobox for the iphone. if I was smarter I might be able to understand the code so I could make it myself but I have bought and read several books on how to do it and just dont get it. if anyone wants or can help let me know.
I too have been craving this app since I got an android phone. This is way beyond my experience, but if someone makes it, I'll buy it.
it woldn't be OVERLY complicated...
This would be complicated for me, just because I don't have a clue what the hell it does even after looking at the website.
Not saying I can write it, looks like it would take a good bit of dev time.
Couple of weeks for anything work able.

It is an application for photographers that allows you to create lighting diagrams of strobe and camera placement in a scene for reference.

Well, If you find someone that could tackle the UI, I could work in the rules for you. I just wouldn't have a clue about what rules to use unless I was given them by someone who knows. That's over my head.

UI design or coding? I definitely couldn't do the coding, but the design maybe.
Oh yeah, the Strobox app is under a creative commons license, so the UI could probably be used as longs the the app stays under creative commons. Which, would probably restrict the app from being sold.
yes the dev put it under CC because she wanted to make sure that it was a free app that being said I would be more than happy to "DONATE" to anyone that could do this, and would be more than happy to help with the graphics aspect of it if someone can code it. The code is WAY over my head.
@bernard_photography: its nice to see someone else intrested in this. I have been trying to find a way to get ahold of the dev of strobox since I got my hero. I use speedlights a lot and it was a life saver for repeateability on location.
and the thing about it is that yeah you would have to make it a free app but if you where really looking to get into app dev this could really get your name out there just like it did for the strobox dev. I mean as soon as she released it it was all over ALL of the major photography blogs.
I'm in contact with the dev now to see what I can work out.

Saweet. I hope this comes together. My wife just got an iPod touch and the app is pretty sick.
Have you guys looked at this:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/strobist/discuss/72157624143703396/
Search "Photo Studio Buddy" in the market or scan his QR Code.
Wow, that saved me a lot of work! LOL.
The dev of StroBox pointed it out to me. She wasn't very willing to share her source...iPhone users...go figure.
Thanks, that works pretty well. It could use some work, but it is a start for sure. I appreciate your help.
Funny title huh Seriously though, I am tired of the hit and miss of live wallpapers, and other apps working or not working on my beloved Hero, that being said what I have desperately been trying to do is learn Java(a live wallpaper not sticking when all my others do is what started this, it's dumb I know) so I can start programming things to work for our phone(or at least try). I have spent 2 days looking for a good way to learn Java, I have been all over the net hunting for an interactive Java tutorial and have come up empty handed, I found a couple PDFs as well as some online tutorials but they don't explain everything(it seems like they all assume you already know some Java or programming), I am a total beginner and need it all explained, preferably with hands on. I am a fast learner when things are explained and taught properly, I think I could excel at this, so I figure this community is the best place to ask for advice on how and where to proceed, so come on guys help me out what is the best way for a total beginner to proceed, how did you all start, where did you go for help? Again, I am only asking here because I really have spent 2 days looking for a proper tutorial and come up empty handed...THANKS!!
Oh, I can skype if some saintly person feels like teaching.
edit:this is what started my obsession http://www.mediafire.com/?jiynwdnmc1z out of the 6 I have this is the only one that wont stick, so I figured why not try to re-build it my self after comparing it to the ones that do stick(it does run perfectly, just wont stick)
Well if you are a total newbie to programming my best advice is goto your local book store or half-price books(used book store) and find a book on java programing probly too first one would be java progamming for dummies and the second one a more adavaced book go though both of them do the lesson in there and learn by doing best way to do it and then check out the froyo thread for the irc room and if you get stuck ask someone in there oh on here your direct question if you do your homework and give a detialed description of what your working on more people are going to try and help you but this is just my two cents and the extend of my attempt at advice good luck and hope to see your name on an op soon
Wow, I gotta say, I do like that lwp a lot man. Thanks for posting the link to it Good luck on learning Java man. It's not too hard, but once you start scripting with it etc... that's a whole different story, lol
It's good to see someone wants to stop putting up with stuff not working and make it work Honestly, I'd just go to your local library, and check out a bunch of stuff on Java... that's what I did with Python
It's going to take a lot of reading and trial and error to learn java. But a little heads up, the live wallpapers that don't stick, is a driver issue, not a programming issue. I don't know enough about android, so unless there is a line you can add to the header to force software rendering, you can't do much about it.

Thanks for the responses guys! I really didn't think of grabbing a Dummies book, I figured there would be a good course online, but that's what I'm going to get first thing tomorrow. I figure once I get familiar with it all(maybe a week or two) I will compare the ones that work with the one that doesn't and go from there. I think the first app I would like to work on would be a request from the forum, you guys all help and give back, I think that would be a great way to put the knowledge to good use Well, thanks again, I'm still open to more suggestions, maybe a couple weeks from now I can at least give you guys a neat wallpaper!

**** my bad. Not sure I can do that here. Check your pm
Not to rain on your parade or anything, but the wallpaper you are working on is a pirated upload of a paid LWP in the market. The original author of the LWP would probably be happy to help paid customers get it working.
I'm all for you learning how to code up some cool stuff for the community, and I wish you the best, but stealing other people's stuff isn't the way to go.
hmm, was not intentionally "stealing" I paid for it, the developers response is " LWP's don't work on hero, sorry" so I thought I would try to make it work for me, I'm pretty sure if I could provide a way for hero users to use it they would all gladly pay the $1 as I did, as it stands I "pirated", yet another, unusable app, hey hero users come get your free, unusable, paid app

That's cool...your OP links to a mediafire download for a paid app, so I didn't realize you knew it was paid. It's lame that the guy won't fix it, but I guess those of us slumming it on the hero have to get used to doing things ourselves, eh? Good luck to you...it is a cool LWP.
That wallpaper sticks just fine on my hero. Running Aloysius 2.1 maps version.

Aint you helpful
Last I checked, this whole site is pirated. If you think about it. It's basically a whole guide on how to hack phones and get free apps. So why are you even putting it out there that the guy is pirating. LOL. Doesn't make any sence but I thought I'de throw that in there.

wow, I seriously apologize for all of this, all I wanted to do was give back to our community, I have been taking for a year plus & thought it was time to step it up a notch, I did not want to start fights, sorry, if any mods want me to take it down I will.(oh,I really paid for it, that's my mediafire account,after it didn't work I pulled it off my phone to try and work with it.) I'm getting my books now, if I get stuck I hope I can post my questions, thanks again guys!
Sent from my HERO200 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
First off theycallmegq. This site does not promote pirating anything. Read the forum rules posted by binary. Who might just ban you if your not careful.
That being said. I would highly recommend the for dummies set of books for starters. Thats what im doing with linux and programming. Also there is a book specifically on the android platform and development at the book stores as well. Last i checked in the computer at barnes and noble i think it was they were coming out with a new one i think had to do with java and android. There was also a post in here a while back about learning development after you have an understanding of the basics at least. Might want to search for that after a couple of weeks. Good luck with your adventure. Im sure the creator of the lwp wouldnt mind you helping make it better.
I think the poster used an unfortunate choice of words. If this was a site concerning iphone OS development it definately would be considered hacking. Modifying Apple OS in anyway is a NO NO! It was hard for me "At first" to get past the "Openess" of Android. Thats why we sould be screaming anytime we see E-fuses in phones (Motorola) or No sideloading of Apps (AT&T). I for one am thankful to be able to have source code to work with and a group such as this one to help out. My little hero is thankful too ... Without you guys I would have an EVO by now...
As far as Java Programming, do a search on "Java Tutorial". Theres a lot at your finger tips.
Try:
www.javapassion.com
just recently changed to a subscription based site, but first few chapters of each class are free to try and learn, even have an android class strarting at the end of the month.
That LWP works fine for me too.
Hi there, I've got this idea, for an android game, but I am not so savy in coding, if you need a new challenge and would be willing to work with me let me know you can call me and we can talk things over and see where we can take this idea.
Am going to be using a concept I havent found in any games on the market as of right now but I know is very possible.
Illd be actively involved but I really dont know how to start this out on my own. So please help.
Thanks.
In case am making this thread in the wrong location can you please advice on where to better ask my question?

Hey guys! It's been a long while, for some reason my post count is greatly reduced, but oh well, all you old timers probably remember me, lol.
Anyway, so here's the deal, I'm launching my record label, Syko Records, and I've been trying to think of creative ways to dominate the industry, being a no-name-up-and-comer I have to be innovative. Of course, I thought of all my genius pals here at XDA, and hope that maybe someone would be interested in volunteering their time for the cause.
I don't have any monetary compensation, but I'm sure we can work out something that benefits you for your time!
If anyone is interested in being a part of the next big movement in music, please let me know and lets get started!
Peace!

Oh come on, I know someone wants a chance to work with an indie record label! I hoped there would have been a better response!

I'm no app developer yet but what exactly are you looking for? Ive been wanting to learn it for a while but haven't really found anything to create that hasn't already been done a million times. I'd love to help if you have enough time for me to learn as I go. Hit me up on gtalk: [email protected] if you're interested.

This is my first app so bare with me. This is an app for my blog about my struggles with combat PTSD and alcoholism. It is a free app. I am trying to get the word out about Soldiers and the struggles they return home too face. Just because they are home does not mean they are not still fighting a battle. Please check it out and give me feedback. I have been a member here for a while and have learned so much from this site so I figured I would post it on here. I did use a app creator site to design it but I am currently trying to learn to develop it from scratch. Thank you!

I have thats why I created the blog and app
Never been a soldier, not yet at least, but fully support your efforts. PTSD in vets is not really fully understood by the majority of civilians and there definitely need to be more positive outlets for those struggling. I would suggest perhaps also focusing on the families of vets suffering PTSD, addiction, etc. A strong support system clearly can help a lot and helping the family members understand it more might also be useful. In terms of just the app itself, you can tell its young but as you said you're learning so that's not a big deal. Just wanted to say keep up the good work and I appreciate everything you soldiers have done and continue to do.

Need a developer
My ability to concentrate is horrible so I am pretty sure its going to take me years to even make the simplest of apps from scratch. Plus I am a active duty Drill Sergeant so I have very little time. I wish Google wouldn't have quit supporting app inventor. Is anyone interested in helping me develop this app from the bottom up? There would be no profit. Any money made from ads or anything would go into a account I plan to establish once I can get registered as a non profit. I will be making nothing from this nor would whoever helped me. This app is purely for raising awareness and hopefully eventually raising money to go towards Veteran groups. If someone would want to help out please let me know. Thank you for considering.
Where you a DS at? I'm sure you can find some geek to put on CQ with you and help. I mean geek as a term of endearment since I was a 31/25 series.

Hi painandpleasure, I'm not a vet, but most of my family was, but none saw combat. Regardless, I just want to give you a HUGE THANKS for your service and sacrifice. You are the real heroes. Good luck with the app, even if it helps one person, it'll have been worth the effort.
In terms of learning to develop, much of it is just trial and error. You have to be willing to try something and let it all go if it doesn't work. Start by mapping out what you're trying to do, then search for examples you can reference and go from there. I know it's not earth shattering advice, but its something that's worked well for me. There's also a specific developers only section on XDA, maybe post there if you need help.
Best of luck and God bless,
