Hello! I am a fairly experienced graphic designer, I am 16 years old and have been designing for 6 years. I was wondering if anyone would like to help me develop apps, I am looking for a coder, That is willingly coding the graphical layouts and designs/ideas I put together, From that, I would really love to just make a new friend. So please, Hit me up if you're interested.
Here is some idea I've been having:
So, It's an omegle app, No big deal, But I used to design for a guy that developed this app, Now unfortunately I can not reach him anymore, And would like to recreate that app (I use Omegle a lot and a nice app for my android device is simply perfect.).
Here are my mockups so far.
( I can not post links since I'm a new user. PM me and I'll find a way to get it to you, However, I'll try to post it somehow. )

This may be a really stupid question, but is it possible to create a tab for practically anything? I know they have updated the Weather Tab in the Touch HD to pull more weather data, and there is also the stock tab where you can get stock info right from the tab. My question is if these tabs can be formatted to show anything from an internet source or feed. For example sports scores or news. I've seen this in Bell's UI for the TP, but is it possible to do if you can find the right source? I don't know how to program and wouldn't be able to do this, I was just throwing it out there as a question to see if its possible. Thanks!
does anyone have any ideas on this?
I'm wondering the same thing. Some tabs on TF3D like the People and Mail tab are pretty far from useful. It would be great if these could be edited or replaced.
It's entirely possible. I've stumbled onto docs and dev tools for writing your own tabbed whatever on this site. It wasn't of interest to me so I don't know where they are offhand but a little searching should bring them up eventually. Maybe check the wiki, also.
I'm really intersted in this so I can make some useful tabs. I'm so sick of the music tab!
I've been keeping an eye out but haven't seen anything useful in the way of docs or info yet. If anyone finds some info could they please post links here?
Please!

Yes, I am interested in developing new tabs, too. Seems to me that developing a visual voicemail tab that would work with the youmail.com service just makes a lot of sense to have on a phone.
I asked that question before, and got the following links in response.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=479910
Unfortunately, I've got a ton of VB6 experience that does no good here. I'm willing to write some good psuedo code, if there is anyone with LUA experience that can help me with the tab.
Whoa guys and girls you have no idea what you are asking. This is not something you do by editing a tab a little bit. Creating new tabs will requires you to be able to create mode9 files from scratch and have some real experience with lua coding. Only one who's done that on this forum is D-man (calender tab). I've been working with xbox on the rhodium manila editing mode9 and lua files I can do, but creating them from scratch is very hard and will consume a lot (like a whole lot) of time. For someone with experience it will be hard, and I'm ready to team up with someone who thinks he can but it's probably a project of weeks or maybe months. But hey I might be wrong here , 12

JQ,
If you mean uploading an app to the Market, then you need to sign-up to be an Android developer (25 bucks).
Some useful links:
http://developer.android.com/index.html
http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/publishing.html
http://market.android.com/publish
Didn't see your thread until after I got home from work...
Cheers!
if you just want to post comments, you first need to download the app, then you get the option to rate and comment. Download app, then hit Post a Comment
thanks you very much. Sorry I had to delete because no one would help me out. Just one person but didn't understand.
I paid the fee and got an account. I'm just not sure about those "manifest, xml, and other files" to put in my app. I'm not a developer, I just create images on my photoshop cs5. I do a good job and wouldn't post junk. I just don't know the lingo that goes with the app. I create good quality, very detailed icons, clocks, docks would love to create a theme but its the files that I don't know.
I was looking for help on this.

There's tons of great web sites with simple tutorials and apps--a great way to get started and dip your toe in the pool, so-to-speak. I've found that by searching and trying stuff out, you'll learn a lot in a short time. Don't try to absorb and understand it all at once--there's just too much. Take small bites of the Android pie and it'll digest much easier
There's a few good books out there too, but I would advise searching for helpful sites that lead you through some simple apps first. This will teach you about Eclipse and the basic things that you can do for building said apps.
Good luck and cheers!
Hello XDA,
I have spent the past year familiarizing myself with Android and the Android SDK. Now I am stuck. I want to publish an app on the Android Market but I have no idea what type of app I should make. Please help me guys and gals. Give me any idea you have that ou would like an app for in Android. What do you guys miss from iOS or Windows Phone 7 or Windows Mobile 6.5 or Palm OS or WebOS or any PC/MAC based application? What do you want to see? (Preferably something that hasn't already been done.) Thanks
Sincerely,
Zaid
I was in the same situation as you a while back.
If you are serious about app development, my suggestion is that you go over to Freelancer.com and browse the active Android jobs and see how hard it would be for you to build an app. If you are confident about completing an app, be sure to bid on a project and send a demo of the app to the person requesting it - it just might land you a nice paying job!
My experiences there have been mostly positive and it's a great way to sharpen your skills and earn some extra money.
(If you're going to join, and if it wouldn't be a problem, send me a PM with your e-mail so I can send you an invitation which will in turn earn me some spare change )

Hey thanks for your reply. I will most definitely check it out. I just have one question. If I want to use my business for app development can I make an account under my business's name?
Is it possible, and if so, could someonw create a sizable widget for one of the video players on android tablets. Id love to be able to have a window that was a quarter or half the screen that would let me play videos while still having the ability to create documents, or browse email or what not.
Im not a programmer but would love to help in any way. I could see this being a big selling point vs the ipad and would be favorite thing about an android tablet. id be happy to donate funds or whatver and am open to diuscussions on how to get this going. I also suffer from insomnia and figure that may help somehow too. Any feedback would be great. I can have it tested on the galaxy tab, the lenovo thinkpad tablet, skypad alphapad and a couple others. I dont need my name tied to it as its just something I want to see up and going. I can trade legal copies of MS software as well.
Please if anyone has any ideas , help if you have the time
Questions should be posted in the Q&A forums.

I am an aspiring android developer trying to teach myself the language. I would like to find a project, maybe open source, that I can get involved in as a real world experience with android programming.
I am wondering if there are people here that are either working on, or who could recommend, a project that I could join? I think that working on a modern app would be a great way for me to continue my learning. I have been working with books, but I worry that the information might not be completely up to date.
I am excited to get involved with real world app programming. I hope to be helpful to any project that I join Thanks to everyone in advance!
Hi MastrFett,
It is great to see how exiciting a person could be when learning. I do not have a project but I recommend you to do one for your own.
When doing something that you are going to release you do the best of yourself and you learn much more. Facing real problems is very exciting. There are lot of things that a book wouldn't explain you; you will discover them when you know that not only you is going to use your app.
Try something and upload it on Google Play. Don't get bored reading questions/answers on StackOverflow -it will be your best friend :laugh:-
Patedit,
Thanks. My only problem is I don't feel like I have many good ideas of my own right now. I think the few I have would require algorithms more advanced than my level of skill. I'll have to keep thinking.
I was just hoping to find something that would give me the chance to just jump in head first on a project right away. I do eventually want to do something on my own when I come up with the right idea.
You need a good idea if you want to become rich
If you want to learn, you don't need great ideas I know it could be frustrating at first... Imagine something you need or that will help you in your daily use of your smartphone.
For example, yesterday I made for me a widget in which I could see the next alarm time. With pressing on the widget, the Alarm Clock app is launched. That could sound 'easy' but it took me several hours. I did it because I wanted a nice widget to do so and a shortcut to the Alarm Clock app which I didn't have.
Good luck!
There is an app idea I had, but I found out there are a lot that already do what I want on google play. Should I still make the app for experience? I don't know if it is worth it if the app already exists.

Definitely.
There are already three apps like mine (see my signature)
But I still made it and posted it. Result : 110,000 downloads and #11 in the Top New Paid category last week
