Android monitoring via PC and reliable malware sources? - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I'm working on my thesis about malware on Android platform and need a little help.
One of my teachers told us about PC software, that can monitor an android device and show you which app is using what and some other things. I tried to google it, but all I can find was bunch of some spy apps. Does anyone know, which software could he meant? Or is it possible to do it via Android Studio?
Also does anyone know about some reliable source of malware apps? I have to test them to see what they are doing...
All suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

You won't find any named here as they are all banned.
You can do that with adb and a logcat. Both available with the android sdk.
I can't say anything about Android studio as I have no need to use it over the command line tools.

Can't Deploy application from Visual Studio

Hi,
I've just bought my new O2 XDA IQ. (Tornado). I thought I'd try and deploy an application to it but I'm getting the following error:
Error 1 The device security configuration disallowed the connection. Ensure that you have the appropriate certificates on your device for development. Review your SDK documentation for proper security settings for connecting to this device. Device Connectivity Component.
Has anyone got any ideas for what I need to do?
Sorry for replying to own topic.
I found this link:

Just what I needed. Hope this helps if anyone else has the same problem.
Actually, it will be a good idea to use device emulator rather than your real device to debug your app. Unless you want your phone really mess up.
On the other hand, if your app use some device specific features, than you should pray every time before deploying.
That's my experience.

[Q] How to start Android App development

Hi all,
I want to start android application development. Can you suggest a low budget way of doing that?
Can any android supported cell phone can be used for App development or there are some restrictions in phones for Development? If yes, then i can buy any low series basic used android phone and do App development.
Do i need to root and ROM access any phone to develop, load and test application?
Where can i find Android application framework architecture and basics of application development documents/ articles? I know developer.android.com has it but it is not starting from broader level to micro level. It is just talking about specific issues and directly starting Hello World. But i want to study about android architecture and fundamentals before starting.
Thanks.
The android SDK comes with an emulator, so that will help on the phone aspect. You definitely want to be able to enable sideloading of apps (install non-market apps), I've heard some carriers disable this. Root can be helpful in many situations.
Assuming you know java and are familiar with Eclipse, you mainly need to learn about the Android API.

[Q] Best way to develop an application

Good morning! I'm a software developer, and I'm searching the best solution to develop a business application that it can access to a database and can run it in any device, as Android, Iphone, PC, etc. I thought, I should use GWT and SmartGWT technology, because it can run into any device and can access to a server database. Furthermore, I thought use Android SDK and Ios SDK. What does you recommend me?

Garmin Navigator App - Is Anyone of you, able to modify it, for any android OS?

Is easy to find Garmin Navigator as a *.apk file, ready to install into any android device OS, but it works only on few devices and all the others refuse it.
I think is just question of a simple correction on the source code to make it accepted by any android OS.
have anyone of you the skills to do that? andHow to do it?
Thanks.

install android like windows, linux or other OS

hello comunity,
thank you for taken me into your community.
my question might is weird but i was always wondering why android ROMS are always just made for specific devices.
As known from the Personal Computers you just get an installation media like DVD or USB Drive packed with the OS and all the driver the computer might have. the installation routine just figures out the the device needs and installs acordingly.
why this is not possible for the ARM-devices to install android OS like this? or is there already projects who invented? i think almost everybody (especially those who owns a not anymore supported device by the manufacturer) would appreciate if he/she could upgrade by using an autonomous installer.
I am not a hardware architecture nerd thats why i would appreciate and kindly ask for an easy to understand explanation
