I have searched a few times here and have found nothing, so i'm sorry if there are existing threads on this issue.
I am working on an app that needs to be able to read from (and possibly write information to) my website. The website will be designed for this app.
I understand that android uses SQLite databases to hold local information for an application.
How am I supposed to make my application read information from my website. Do i set up a SQLite database on my server and have the app pipe into that somehow?
I am in very preliminary design stages of both my app and my website. I would like to design them from the getgo so my application can get the information as easily as possible for this website. (it will possibly sumbit information to my website as well, wiki-style).
thanks for all your help. if threads like this exist, please by all means make fun of me for neglecting the search button! But I have purchased two programming books and I still cannot find an answer that is even pointing me in *any* direction.
Anybody have a good tutorial on this subject?
I've been wondering about this too. I really like the new XDA android forum app and was wondering if there is a guide or video on this. Since XDA had one I KNOW its possible.
If I were you I would make a PHP (or whatever you use) bridge which can perform actions in your site. You can use get methods to tell the bridge what would you like to do. The XDA app uses this method, but instead of GETs it uses XML-RPC

I have searched the forum and could not find anything about this in regards to the Android OS, but there is some discussion about it for WinMO.
Caller name Identification is offered by some carriers but is not supported by Android. I would love to hear an answer from a developer if this is even currently possible on Android or not. Every phone I have owned, Nokia's from around the world, have had the feature, and since OS 3.1 the iPhone can now do it too.
The following link shows some examples of what the HEX stream looks like for the 2 different CLI formats SDMF and MDMF.

Can one of the developers please at least comment if this is currently possible, or do we have to wait for Google/Android to open up the API's to make this possible.
Do you mean something like caller id? White pages does this and even gives names of cell numbers, plus reverse look up.

Hello everyone, i am wondering how i can make an app that can connect to a website via messages, notifications and basic stuff that only the app offers compared like how the Facebook app works in comparison to the actual website. i have no experience in making an app as complex as this is so im wondering if there is some sort of template or automatic system that can help me build the app but also connect to the blog/forum so Users can access the forum easier from their hand held devices which will bring a lot more of the community in.... Actually i have seen your app for this forum, and i need to make something similar for a forum that im helping out, as i am a member to this forum and came up with the idea of making an app. where do i even start?
it would be even better if some one could develop an app for me, of course you'd be getting all the credit
Hello everyone,
Im very new to this site, just registered a few moments ago. im not a bot, or a troll, so please bare with me if this post is in the incorrect place within the forum, or if some of my questions seem ignorant.... because i am sure they will (haha).
My development background:
0 ... i have none. Lol. In fact, ive barely begun to learn even the basics of source coding. So again, please bare with me on any of my ignorance.
Why I chose XDA forums:
Dealing with various issues on my Android device, i have googled my problems, and often-times found myself here to find the answers. I believe this forum has some of the highest intelligence this genre has to offer. Easily understandable advice put in a way the ignorant like myself can understand, goes a long way to helping others, and i believe i have found that here.
My Current issue:
I am tired of being an employee. I am tired of waking up and going to work to make someone elses dreams come true. At the age of 32 i believe its past the time i make steps to create something I can pass down to my sons. I have also noticed that the world of business has become vastly technological. Apps are needed for everything. So.... i want to know how to make apps. From the very beginning of it all, to the final production stages, and everything in between.
Where do i start?
Can i make one completely from my Android?
Where can i find app blueprints?
Do i need app blueprints?
These are just some examples of questions I have running through my head. I want to be an Andriloid game developer, I believe i could make the next big thing like AngryBirds, but i do not have the mental know-how, on the technological aspect on all of this. If any of you can help me it would be greatly appreciated. I am also open to the idea of a partnership in creating my first app.
Thank you very much for your time everyone.

Hi there, I'm a relatively recent beginner as well, having churned out only 1 app so far.
In terms of getting started from the ground up, I found the free online tutorial series from TheNewBoston pretty helpful. In particular, you'd want to look at the Java one and the Android Application Development one

Android Development (may be using an outdated Android Studio by now, but overall still handy imo)

You need to do the Java one first, because you'll be writing Java code to make Android apps.
There are quite a bit of videos, especially for the Android one. You can pick and choose which you need based on the app you have in mind, like if you don't need voice recognition or drawing 3D objects, you can just skip over those.
Good luck!

Brother youre a life saver. These tutorials are awesome for beginners like me. Funny its called "NewBoston" as thats where i live too lol. But again, thanks for this.
Everything starts with Ideation. All mobile app developers follow the design guidelines during the design phase. The best method would be to make your first app relatively simple and to focus on creating something. Next step would be deciding on the wireframe for the app. Choose the IDE (everything needed to develop your apps), programming language and set it. Since you are using Android Studio and Java, you should know the basics of Java. Create and acquire images, build the layout and write the code. Add more functionality specific to your app and do extra polishing by running your app on different devices. Finally, publish your app. Check this article on how to make android app development easy https://www.fingent.com/blog/how-to-make-android-app-development-easy .
I understand that a Text-to-speech notification cannot be triggered from an app running in the background on a phone using Android 10. Does anyone have a work-around for this limitation?
cheers

ps - just a newbie... with very little experience.
Welcome @RadarReminder ! It is always very useful if you mention your own phone specifications in the forum and include it in your question. This way we can respond much more directly to your question. In addition, you can then search for the thread that exists especially for this phone. (Almost every phone has its own thread)
Enjoy your wandering.
