i want to whether i can create an app without knowing anything about java..i have installed the sdk but can't go any futher..do i need to know about java??
If you want to actually program yes... I believe there is an easy app creator out there, but you won't get too far with it.
I just started learning Java, picked up a book and im getting into it. Oracle has online tutorials as well as Android Developers, you can follow those to get a gasp of it. The real issue is learning the in's and out's of java to bee more creative.

Take a look at illumination software creator at radicalbreeze.com . No programming experience necessary. There are other apps like this.

Simply put yes you can. There are other language alternatives. C# (mono project) and there are a few different implementations to allow you to write javascript for apps as well. Also check out app inventor, it lets you drag and drop program. No typing involved.
Greetings, here is a simple calculator app that I am developing in Flash Builder with Flex, which basically uses java and xml's to develop. Although I have the basic logic down as for how I would like to approach this type of APP, I would like for some one to help me structure the coding. I will upload the source directly along with screen shots to help. XDA Developers won't let me upload the coding within the actual post so I have provided them as attachments.

If you're building a tip calculator, you might want to take a look at the source code of this example app. (It's from a book I'm reading "Android How to Program")
Edit: I just realized you're developing an app using Flash.. This post may not be of use to you. If so, just ignore this and move on.
Either way thanks. For the reply. I appreciate it

You will need Windows or other platform , jdk , java IDE such as eclipse , android sdk . You'll need to have a basic understanding of java and xml...

First off, you need the Android SDK and Eclipse.
You also need to have an experience in Java or C++ programming as well as a good experience with XML files.
Here's a link to a tutorial..
Do use the SEARCH button next time.
Thanks all for reply

You need to know firstly - What Android is not?
Answer is:
A Java ME implementation — Android applications are written using the Java language,
but they are not run within a Java ME (Mobile Edition) VM, and Java-compiled classes and
executables will not run natively in Android.
Part of the Linux Phone Standards Forum (LiPS) or the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) —
Android runs on an open-source Linux kernel, but, while their goals are similar, Android’s
complete software stack approach goes further than the focus of these standards-defining
organizations.
Simply an application layer (such as UIQ or S60) — Although Android does include an application
layer, “Android’’ also describes the entire software stack, encompassing the underlying
operating system, the API libraries, and the applications themselves.
A mobile phone handset — Android includes a reference design for mobile handset manufacturers,
but there is no single “Android phone.” Instead, Android has been designed to support
many alternative hardware devices.
Google’s answer to the iPhone — The iPhone is a fully proprietary hardware and software
platform released by a single company (Apple), whereas Android is an open-source
software stack produced and supported by the Open Handset Alliance (OHA) and designed
to operate on any compatible device.

What level of Java is necessary? I'm a compsci major and I've had Java for 3 semesters. I've never done anything with XML.
Any suggestions on what I should start reading/learning?

XML is really easy to learn.
Java, you'll only require upto those constructors, string use, and all that. And yeah, arrays too.

Yeah I've looked at some xml sample code, it doesn't seem to be difficult. I I don't think that it's as complex as Java. All of the things that you have listed are covered in the second semester. In the third semester we went over data structures...

Then you're good to go. For high level apps, you may require data structure too.
But the writing of the source code of an android app is a lot different from the original Java. You gotta know about certain Objects and Methods which you're gonna use in your app. Head over to API guides in developer.android.com.

I was poking around Settings.apk and in the assets folder I stumbled on "simple_password_dictionary.txt". I'm not entirely sure yet how this is used (or if it is used at all).
For kicks, here's the list. I've wrapped HIDE tags around it as some of the terms I suppose could be considered NSFW.
My favorite is "trustno1".
Cheers.

Hey guys! & the rare lady I need some help. I bought my 10.1 specifically for class. My instructors use ppts & I'd rather not have to print them all off. I was just using Polaris 5 and taking notes, using the highlighter function and was LOVING it!! Until it unexpectedly closed on me & didn't save any of my notes. I had the setting checked to save a backup if edits were made but I noticed a pop-up saying save edits weren't available with the document open. Not sure if it was ppt or pptx. I've tried several options in the play store & none do what I want. Any suggestions? I've tried office suite, king something, pearl something. I know that's not specific but my mind is flooded with programs I've tried & anatomy (I'm in class right now)

Oops, it's olive, not pearl.
If you don't need to edit ppt documents and only need to annotate, it's better to save them as pdf and use pdf annotation apps.
Check out office suite pro, its on sale in the playstore for 99 cents. I use it for ppts a lot.

I just downloaded the trial. I can't write on the ppts and if I can't write, I can't highlight. I need to be able to highlight.
Next... I'll try the pdf option.
If you can get your lecture files in pdf format I think adobe reader or ezpdf is one of the better options. I currently use adobe reader with dropbox and its pretty amazing.

You don't have to get in pdf format, you can convert them to pdf on the fly, on tablet.

I am new to Android and new to Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014, so I have been on an app learning curve! I settled on LectureNotes for PDFs, mainly because it allows edits on a *new* layer, meaning the original is protected (if you setup import correctly). It is highly configurable.
The only thing (I think) I haven't figured out is how to type on a new layer.
Good luck!

Yep, ive backed out accidentally and exited the app and it saved. I shut the device off midway, and opened up the file, what i had was still there.
I use it mainly to fill out and sign pdf documents

The key is "different layer". You can highlight, draw, etc. on the new layer.
