Hello everyone! First of all I would like to thank you for taking time to read my post. Me and my friend would like to start developing android applications. We decided that he would do the "hard" programming and I would take care of graphics. So ,my question is what do I need to know about Android Graphics? Where do I get started? How am I supposed to begin and what does it imply? Should I develop it with JAVA or other languages? Yeah,I realize those are more than one question...sorry. If you know something regarding my question please help. Thank you again for your time and answer,have a nice day!

JAVA is your best option
If only graphics then ...
If you like to change graphics only then, learn XML and CS6 (Phtoshop) only and learn little about compiling and recompiling APKs...

Linux is more than just point and click my friend. He meant to understand its programming language cuz android is based on Linux.
And to understand C , Java and C++

Hi dear developers,
Im a totally noob at developing but Im pritty into the Android world...
Im having a web portal in croatia about android news, updates, games, apps, reviews phones, tablets and everything like that.
http://androidcek.com
This is my current app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wAndroidcekcom&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS53QW5kcm9pZGNla2NvbSJd
I did my app on the geyser.com for free, but I hate the about credits of the site and every single part where geyser.com is added.
I was woundereing if any developer can help me out and compile me a WebView app for my portal.
I dont have any money for that cause Im totaly new in the business with the portal and Im working alone ;(
The one and only thing I can offer is design. Everything on the website is designed by me and I can help some developer to make his ROM or anything else look better.
Sorry If I pasted this thread into the wrong section or whatever.
I hope I'll find someone out there!
Thx in advice guys!
Pm me and we can talk if you want a really basic app but cant pay im sure i can work something put

Hey bRO, thx a lot, but I saw some tutorials online and I DID IT !!! My firs basic simple damn APP !!!!!
Thx in advice... But Im having another problem now... I had the OLD apps from Appsgeyser and now when I want to upload my app it says that the certificates arent the same and I cant upload.
Is there a way to see the certificates from the old app and to integrate to my new one ?

Hi guys,
Before I rush into C#, I was a good programmer at VB6. I tried to learn JAVA from the net. But couldn't, due to my bad English. So I tried C#, honestly learning it was easy to me. Because VB and C# in the same boat Though I'm still learning C#, no pro yet . So, I thought someone will like to learn C# and develop android apps. So you can find E-books here,

@ScatteredHell, better compile all those links and paste all of them on the OP. Good job otherwise, very useful. :good:
I would like also to learn C# or any other programming language. But there's so many references here that i don't know what to read. Please advise me which one is the best for a total noob.
Hello! I am a newbie to android development and want to study developing android applications. I found 2 best sites where you can easily study coding.
One of them is Codelearner. It is in simple language made for newbies. You don't want to sign up for studying from there. Another one is Codeschool. It is very great too. You can study Ruby, Java, HTML/CSS and IOS. If you become premium member you can access more courses but a regular account is enough for studying android developing(coding) and IOS(If you want). Great for developing good apps.
There is an android apk which can also give some basic info but you have to go through it and you have to self study. The app is AIDE. It is mainly build for developing apps( Android IDE ) but you can study some basics too. When you open the app, you can see some app names for studying, you can start with making Hello World! app. When you make go to whole files and study the content. If you didn't understand any command, just search it in google or post here.
I believe I helped you. Please spread the sites and app to all.
Kindly,
MZ
wow I liked your suggestion man I was searching for a nice site for learning too
Some guides by Matt Luedke , I found a few days ago : Make Your First Android App: Part 1/3 | Make Your First Android App: Part 2/3 | Make Your First Android App: Part 3/3 . You can save it as a pdf file for offline reading.
Kindly,
MZ

Codecademy is nice for small exercises and practicing syntax, but honestly it isn't too useful if you don't have good programming fundamentals. I recommend it as supplementary material, but if you're really looking to understand how to code I'd look elsewhere.

Codelearner? Its not working neither do CodeSchool. Provide working links
Hello i would like to make my first steps as an android developer..i know this **** is difficult and i know you should learn many staff about os stractures etc and of cource a good understanding of some programming[c java]... but i am intrigued by those things[i am also starting my studies about programming in university] but i dont know where to start and what exactly should i learn to have a good understanding about android and be ready to start compiling. building and porting android source to some devices[i know it will take some time but i dont care as i really like programming ]
[ i know some basic stuff about roms kitchens logcat porting and i have really basic level of programing skills [ but i suppose that is not enough]
The only skill required for compiling a rom is reading. There are thousands of tutorials about how to do this.
Porting ROMs to different devices will require some more skill, I think most of the difficulty is in the C part although I personally don't have experience with this.
Most important thing is java
if you successfully compiled ROM and found bugs like FC
you will find it very hard to fix
learn java then continue and then follow the guide by @jackeagle and his awesome team

Yup
But you must don't forget
android 50% of it is apps
Java required for help in fixing bugs in your ROM
For example if you have FC while choosing an option in settings
What you should do ?
Let's think a bit
Settings at the it is an apk file
apk = android app = written with java = can fixed with java
don't go to final phase fast
Start from zero and learn Java and then you can start with ROM development
and then Learn c/c++ then start with kernel development
Do that and make your life easier
you will find that hard a bit in the begins (nothing easy in this life and nothing impossible)
but at the end you will find your self an expert
Hit thanks if i helped you
