Hey,
Just wondering if anyone else has tried it? I downloaded installed it today & it looks really impressive with lots of future potential it lets you load & run apk files and simulates the android UI on your desktop! It compared itself to the developers SDK tool but faster and user friendly. I can't post links but I'd be thankful if anyone else that finds it interesting to post a link
I can't see it mentioned in any threads yet? If this is the wrong place to post... please feel free to move it

Android Apps emulator for the PC (without SDK)
20. September 2010 - 15:18 | Mobile | terry
Meanwhile, there are a lot of apps for mobile devices, whether for iPhone or Android. In the case of Android devices and apps, there is the lovely advantage of it as apk simply sent anywhere, can be loaded and saved - and everyone could then install on their device.
But what if you have no products.These types, but would like to demonstrate Apps on a machine, and without the SDK? introduces you, you have built a cool app want to show that, but your Android can not connect to the projector, or you send out sales people who want to show the app, but no SDK on your machine?
Well, there is a great tool called YouWave. Easy to install on their computers and go apk Embed
It does come accross quite intriguingly... It would be interesting to know if anyone has tried it properly and what they make of it, I'm more interested in mods to my phone so development tools don't spark much excitement for me.... the potential here looks inspiring though
Thanks tina333 for your interest in YouWave. We are a startup, with a mission to serve Android community. In addition to what you have described, our latest software release supports state saving, wirelessly installing applications to rooted phone, etc. Many users, including app users, gamers and developers, are already using our product daily. Hopefully you have tried these features.
We are located in Silicon Valley, California. If you have other questions, drop us a line or post questions here or on our forum. We would be glad to answer them.

Disclaimer: We just like to answer a user's question here, with no interests in posting ads. If this post is not appropriate, please simply remove it.
Is it possible to load our data files from our phone to continue with saved progress in games, etc.?
Currently, it is not possible to sync data file from your phone to the apps running on YouWave. Such features are definitely under our consideration.
BTW, AndroidCentral today runs an article about us.

Whatsapp not working on Youwave?
Hi,
I have the trial version of Youwave. I downloaded Whatsapp but the program won't install: when I run the .apk file it says "application not installed".
Any suggestions?
If
anybody needs a serial key for youwave let me know my email is [email protected]
Yes YouWave is amazing Android Emulator software but not as good as Bluestacks, recently I downloaded YouWave program it's handy but still not best.

[rooted NT using Albert's 4.5] old school IT guy, just don't know android
This site doesn't seem to be very welcoming of basic questions so I would like to find a place I can get up to speed. I'm reading and searching but most of the answers include elements that are over my head so I don't end up making much progress. I've also tried the basic Google searches for "android for dummies", "android basics", etc. Part of it is that I haven't used a smart-phone, iPad, or other similar device so a lot of the really basic stuff isn't 2nd nature to me.
Where can I go to get a basic understanding of setting up, configuring, and using android efficiently.
Things I would like to understand:
When ICS (CM9?) becomes available on NT, if I am running CM7 and do an upgrade will all the look/feel & organizing configuring be gone and need to be redone with the new OS (does this happen each time you do an OS upgrade)?
Configuring the launcher(s) to get better look, more efficient use. I have read the honeycomb & homescreen configuration threads but am unclear as to whether those options are available with a rooted NT or only if you have installed CM7.
Just basic efficient navigation. If I am bouncing back & forth between apps (like Dolphin & installing/configuring an app) I currently end up using the "N" key to go back to the launcher and "reopening" each of the apps. Don't know if there is a more efficient way to bounce between open app instances.
A sincere thank you for ANY help. And sure if you would rather ridicule me for my lack of knowledge or point out that there is a search button I can certainly handle that too.
Honestly, just play with it and explore. You're not going to break anything. In the unlikely event that you do simply reformat your device.

Hi! Since i assume you are well aware of conputer operating systems
Android is a derivative of the Linux kernel which powers Ubuntu, Red Hat, Gentoo etc. Linux is based off of Unix as are other OS like Mac OS X. These Kernels use unix commands to carry out tasks underneath the X server interface (desktop). Android has a similar setup and you can issue commands from a terminal either on the tablet itself or in windows to install, remove and execute scripts and programs. ADB is the android equivelent of a com2 port if you will and that is how the NT and
Kindke Fire where originally rooted. You can use Indirects Adb script to root your tablet and even install Google apps. I know you already have one of Alberts cards but if you want to learn up on Android you should study up on ADB.
The version of Android that comes with the NT is fine if you just want
to consume books and media. This is Gingerbread 2.3 that
was developed specifically for the NT. Since Google requires manufacturers
to meet certain requirements to license the proprietary parts of
their software and apps and Barnes and Noble decided to forgo licensing
they could not include Google Apps on their tablet. This is why although GApps can be forced to run, there are still problems.
Cm7 is a heavily modified version of Android Gingerbread. It has the code in its
kernel 2.3 to run the Gapps without problems and allow full
Access to the market. Some of the "new" ICS roms that are
being built and distributed are actually based on Cm7 and the new
Code is being backported to work on the old kernel. This means whenever
A new feature is introduced to ICS, it has to be rewritten
to work on an old kernel. There is work being done to build
a working 3.x kernel which is what ICS will be based on.
I personally will wait and hope that development is completed
before i use ICS.
The launcher is what draws all the icons and gets you around. I personally like go launcher, others like ADW (cm7 default). Zeem launcher is lightweight and basic.
Just try a couple and use home switcher from marketplace to switch between then
Until you find the one tgat strikes balance between feautures and speed. Hope this helps you get started.
Thanks much for the help so far. I do appreciate it.
I have spent some time with the FAQ/Newb thread but will spend more time on it.
Check out the XDA wiki, or the CyanogenMOD wiki for the best vanilla-android questions. Things like how to set up the android SDK, downloading drivers, etc.. Anything from beginner to advanced should be found in one of those 2 places.
The search function here is sufficient. You just need to know what you are searching for. Basically typing in "android for newbs" is gonna return probably every post with the word android in it. Good luck finding anything in that mess. You need to be fairly specific.
A lot of people here are more than willing to help, so long as you post in the correct areas and at least try to search for an answer to your question.
Just spend a lot of time searching through XDA and using google searches. There is a TON of information out there, I know it seems a bit overwhelming at first, at least it did for me when I got my first Android phone. As long as you are willing to put into the time to research and use trial and error, you will be fine I would start with reading how to root the device that you currently have, from there learn how to install CMW and then worry about CM7 and other ROMs. As you are learning these things I believe a lot will fall into place.
Hello, I'm new to this forum, but, I have been in other forums relating to hacking 'mobile' devices. Previously, I was part of a number of different iOS forums, so, I know about jailbreaking, and troubleshooting problems on the iOS platform. I'll also share my few thoughts on Android, and my experience on Jelly Bean so far within this, embarrassingly long, post.
However, with Google's announcement of the Nexus 7, I was impressed by Android, and I was thoroughly impressed that it had finally sorted out the lagging problems. (I had used Android tablets, but they never appealed to me due to the lag which each one experienced. Jelly Bean, and, in particular, 'Project Butter', has remedied this issue - I have experienced no lag on my Nexus 7 since I received it a week ago.) And so, I pre-ordered the Nexus 7 - deciding against purchasing, a much more expensive, but, I believed, an excellent tablet, the iPad.
iOS, also, was beginning to become less interesting to use - sure, the iPad may have a larger scale of the iOS mobile operating system, but it remained largely the same. Same interface (although on a, admittedly, much better screen) same apps, same freedom - without the jailbreak. The new iPad (as advertised and sold by Apple), I thought, also did not do an excellent job on improving it's predecessor. Sure, an improved screen, and processor to power the screen - but is that worth it? (Considering another one will, inevitably, be released within a year.)
Tegra 3 was making strides. Although, one thing that saddens me about Android, and is something which definitely hinders it's ability to overthrow iOS - is the fragmentation present on the operating system. I'm not sure which apps are compatible with my Nexus 7, and which ones are not. (On a side not, piracy is also another factor which slows the progress of Android, and is perhaps a reason why some apps are exclusive to iOS in the first place - I'm looking at you Epic Games! Android certainly has the power and graphical capabilities to run the game, but Epic, like all companies must, are interested primarily on their profits. Again, fragmentation plays its part!)
Although, shifting to different mobile operating systems is rather difficult - especially since I am intrigued by modifications, and altering devices to make them fulfil my needs. On iOS, it was quite simple: There was only one thing to do - jailbreak. A process, which in itself, was extremely simple (for the most part.) It appears there are also much more iOS specialists on YouTube, who post easy to follow tutorials. Also, since iOS is a 'closed' platform, I was not concerned by viruses, and I knew what I could, and could not do.
Android, however, is open - and this, paradoxically, limits myself. There are so many modifications, I do not know which ones are good, which ones are bad, and which ones could result in bricking my, now beloved, Nexus 7. I don't want to completely mess up my device, or install random rubbish which only makes it slower. I have, almost literally, no clue on where to start. Sure, I've downloaded a few basic apps from Google Play - TegraZone - but who cannot do that without assistance?
I want to install more widgets, that amaze me, and also applications which will prove useful. (For example, a file managing app, a torrent app (no piracy! ), and other cool things.) I also, though, require a reliable anti-virus. Having previously used iOS for a number of years, I was not subject to any viruses, and, indeed, I did not have to worry about viruses - there are very few, if any, viruses on iOS. Android, though, is much more open to viruses. I need to ensure that I do not succumb to one.
However, what I am most interested in is the 'rooting' process, and the benefits which can derive from it. What extra things can I achieve by rooting my Nexus 7? What applications should I install to supplement the rooted device? (I have read of ClockWork(?)Mod, but I have not really ventured that far into applications which take advantage of rooting, since a lot of the information mentioned appears to me as gibberish, due to my noobishness .) And, perhaps most importantly, if something were to go tragically wrong - how would I recover the device. (Again, I'll make a reference to iOS, since, it is an operating system I am familiar with - you could simply restore the device through iTunes - what is Android's alternative?)
So, can you assist me in getting accustomed to the Android operating system by providing your recommended apps, and also useful tutorials which I can use to develop my understanding? I literally have no clue what half of the things in the Android section of this forum talk about - they included an abundance of vocabulary which, evidently, you need relative experience to understand. I also need require some Android experts - involved in perhaps development - to follow on Twitter!
Thanks for reading through my essay! Please, help a noob get started! I would appreciate all forms of feedback!
Note: I have downloaded the Android SDK (Although, not installed it, as of the time of writing.), and I have also got the factory image for the Nexus 7. I achieved this by briefly viewing a YouTube video. There do not appear to be that many, though. The XDA YouTube channel generally covers the news aspect of all things related to Android.
The greatest bit of advice I can give is to start here - Nexus 7 - and read read read!
There's no backup and restoring the entire system without root. When you do you can install a custom recovery. Note there is always a stock recovery that is far limited compared to recoveries such as CWM.
Android really doesn't have problems with viruses. Seriously. The only reason why it appears so is because idiots sideload apps from shady sites that contain viruses, but on iOS there is no sideloading without jailbreak.
For a file managing app, you can use Explorer (my preferance), ES File Explorer, or Astro.
Widgets are really personal preferance, I keep a music widget to quickly play music, a calendar widget, weather widget. You might want a news widget like Flipboard.
Rooting gives you full access to your device. It allows performance gains like overclocking, battery saving with underclocking. Like I said before, it opens to ability to backup/restore entire systems and individual apps with Titanium Backup. You can install customs ROMs, delete system apps (usually bloatware), remap the physical keys, use Tasker for automated tasking (pretty awesome btw). You can also edit system files, such as notification tones, ringtones, bootanimation, etc.

Welcome to Android!
I think you'll enjoy it
Ok on to your questions:
These are gonna be out of order
Reliable anti-virus: Trend Micro Mobile Security (worth the $10 )
Benefits of CWM: Backups, restores, custom ROM flashing
Benefits of rooting: custom ROMs, access to system files
Some apps to get started: Angry birds , Rom Manager, BatteryCalibration, ES File Manager, imo
Android's alternative to iTunes' restore is CWM. It's not official but its tons better then iTunes. You do it from the device and its a full, complete restore.
Ask again if I didn't answer something
Very long post BUT a few things to think about.
I have never used a antivirus software and really they are pointless just look at the apps before you download them read the comments and look at the permissions the app uses and think "does that fart noise app need to be able to send texts" of cause the answer is no so don't install it.
Other fractures can be useful like phone tracking but there are better apps that are free for this like prey.
If you root you will have full control of your filesystem much like su on Linux if you have ever used this. You could for example with root use my project to run Linux distros like Ubuntu. The nexus 7 due to being under googles power is very easy to unlock and root and if you mess something up easy to restore a backup. There are other great apps to like being able to back up apps and there data.
Just a few points and if you have more questions feel free to pm me

AVG or Avast antivirus are the best.
Solid Explorer is the best file explorer.
UCCW is the most customizable widget.
Taptu or Pulse are the best news readers.
Pocket.
Tapatalk forum.
MX player is the best video player.
Dropbox is by far the best cloud storage.
Photoshop.
PowerAMP is the best Music Player.
I would say that you don't need to root a Nexus Device. You got the latest OS and will always have.
The only reason you would wanna root is for some root apps.
Like Titanium Backup, AdBlocker and ROM Toolbox.
CWM is only necessary if you want to flash a custom ROM and you don't need to because you already have AOSP Jelly BEAN.
Thanks for all of the responses! And apologies for the long post! xD
I'll look through the Nexus 7 forums as XperienceD mentioned.
And by ClockWordMod - is that actually ROM Manager? I'm confused, and this is probably the most noobish question you'll get. xD
Since I don't really want to root my Nexus 7 (currently, that is) - then I would not really need to back up the data, since, there will be no risk. I'm not really concerned about overclocking my device - it's quite fast as it is. However, battery saving is quite tempting. Although, I don't see it as a reason alone to root my Nexus. And, as it is stock Google - there is no unnecessary bloat ware attached to the device.
And I can't get viruses while browsing through the internet?
I always thought that was the case, which is why I was looking for an anti-virus application.
Also, for UCCW - do I need to install a custom launcher of some sort? Is it really possible to add a widget, that appears complicated, simply through the Google Play market?
And finally, while installing ES File Explorer - I noticed that it had permission to remove shortcuts without user intervention. Is this the sort of permission I should be checking for on other applications? Since people on this forum recommended the app, I didn't really have any doubts of whether it was legit.3.
Also, how you I get toggles back on the notification bar? On iOS (sorry for the repeated mentioning of the scum ) - I had SBSettings, which was similar to the notifications available on Android. How would I add the toggles back?

It is a custom recovery which lets you backup your ROM, flash new ROMs and make other changes to your device (so in a way use it is a ROM manager)

This is true if you have a nexus device the need for root is far less, and the fact that alot of apps that used to need root have become features in new versions of android, back in the days of 1.5/6 you needed root to pretty much do anything good

Sure you might get windows viruses but in no way will they beable to run on your device let aloan harm it. The only way anything evil can be done is if you install the app (and in alot of cases give it root) so check those permissions!
anti-virus apps are the biggest scam (well paid one anyway) all they can really do is check a database of known bad apps and check it its there, other than that they do nothing. They are a trick from all the Windows users coming to android after having it hammered into them that you need anti-virus

Nope just add the widget to your home creen, in the app launcher press the widget button and then long press on the widget you want and drag it to the home screen you want, many apps include widgets so will be installed with the app as part of it (e.g twitter) while other 'apps' are just widgets

There is likely a good reason for this (And with alot of apps if there is a odd permissions it will say in the apps description why its needed) but yes its the kind of thing you have to stop and think about

to add toggles you would either need to use a custom ROM, or download a app that will do it like this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle&hl=en
Thanks very much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!
I'll just do what you recommended! The Notification Toggle is an extremely impressive app, I must admit.
Since there is no point downloading a paid antivirus, should I download Avast Anti-virus (since it's free), just for precautionary measures?

Well its not going to hurt and would at least prevent an app thats bad be installed if you missed it. And like I said some do have some nice other features just the "anit-virus" side of it is rather pointless
There is a huge thread with skins for UCCW.
And Power Widgets or Notification Toggles are the best Notification Drawer toggle apps.
NT has customizable icons.
If you want weather too there's some new app called Deluxe Notification Bar which shows weather and toggles.
Look in the Nexus 7 forums for no-root battery saving advice.
And if you do not want battery drain don't use Anti-virus.
I've never had any virus problems.
If you're unrooted they can't really mess with your phone.
Just stay away from creepy apps, Chinese apps (no racist), piracied apps and apps from other than Play Store and XDA.
And never play ad-supported games.
Buy ad-free versions or play offline if you don't want battery drain.
Also SwiftKey is a MUST, if you're not happy with Jelly Bean keyboard.
Hey!
We know, that we can't run Android apps on Ubuntu Touch. The UT is a great operating system, but it has a big problem. It doesn't have any "neccessary" or "must have" applications NOW. These apps are the following by the community's opinion: FacebookMessenger, WhatsApp, Google Maps, a browser (like Chrome, Opera mini or Firefox), instagram, etc.
So, I want to know, that we are possible to port these (or any other) Android apps to UT, or not? If the answer is yes, i want to create a team. In this team i want to port Android apps, or create this apps alternatives.
Guess not much up in the forums
Request: Simyo Call Status App [Netherlands]
Hi there,
I haven't been on the xda forums a lot since the end of 2009 I believe but, since Canonical announced Ubuntu Touch this year, I have my reasons to pick up browsing the forums again. The Ubuntu Touch region, specifically.
Now, you were asking if there's any Android Apps to port to Ubuntu Touch.
I have a request that might not be of interest to a lot of people but will get pretty important to me once a 'user version' of Ubuntu Touch is released:
Simyo Netherlands provides an App to check your current "Belstatus" or call status.
This app provides me (on my iPhone) with the current remaining minutes/sms messages and remaining data (megabyte) for the current month within the contract.
Below the link to the Android equivalent in the Play Store, which might be portable to an Ubuntu Touch app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.simyo.mijnsimyo
Let me know if this is something you'd be interested in doing.
I might be of some help being a C# programmer, but I still need to check out the Ubuntu Touch SDK (my HTML5 and QML knowledge is poor) and that's something I won't be able to very soon....

You can port any already existing apps that are found on Android, you just need the API from the app developers.

No, there's no tool like that for Ubuntu Touch (yet?).
I'd be willing to port my Android apps to Ubuntu touch. Does the work need to be done from scratch? Is there a simpler way to port a java, native, android app to Ubuntu?
I can't contribute anything app-wise, but this sounds like a really good idea; best of luck!
Ubuntu-Touch must LIVE! I have use it and it is cool system. Some problems with applications time to time appeares. And it is very hard find developers for apps. But I think if required apps appeares -- more people move to UT. And first of all that system must use NOT for games.

These apps are the following by the community's opinion: FacebookMessenger, WhatsApp, Google Maps, a browser (like Chrome, Opera mini or Firefox), instagram, etc.
So, I want to know, that we are possible to port these (or any other) Android apps to UT, or not? If the answer is yes, i want to create a team. In this team i want to port Android apps, or create this apps alternatives.

Till last some years UT has some changes. For example appears OpenVPN network manager in a base apps. But unfortunately that feature with unresolved bugs. Also I didn't find any browsers like QupZilla/Mozilla FireFox or Lynx. So As for me we required updated OS for first. And normal browser. Current versions of browsers are unusable. That i big part of work. For that required powerful developers group. I try to compile and run some examples to UT but unfortunately unsuccessful. But I try. Who also try do something but with successful result?
