What would you use that for? Read the manual and there you go I really don't understand the purpose of these books.
I don't know
Android Wear Books
Although not officially out, there are two books on Android Wear.
Check out Beginning Android Wearables from Apress or go to learnandroidwear.com.
Best of luck,

hi,
i know java and i want to learn how to develop for android, i know that the best way is just to start writing little apps from tutorials. But i want to study the best way to develop with thoughts about battery life, background apps and etc. So i think that a good book will do the job.
What is the best book you can recommend about these issues (i want new book that talks about android 2.2+)?
thanks
Idk a book but if you watch some of the old google io videos they might help.

Hey im a programming student in my second year and ive been wanting to play around with some android development (mostly because my school doesnt teach java or php. Im pretty experienced with visual basic and C#. But my questions is can someone help me out with a link to or something where I can take a look at some open source code for some android apps? It can be as simple as tic tac toe I dont car. Im just basically doing some research myself. Also is eclipse the best compiler for android development? Thanks
You can find quite a number of examples under 'Resources' on developer.android.com.
You may be interested to know that Eclipse is not a compiler, it is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). What is better or not is largely a personal preference, but starting out you are likely to find more tutorials assuming you use Eclipse than anything else.
Source of pre-installed Android Appliaction is open. And you can program with eclips for Android App.

Android is open-source, but not the apps.
You can run Eclipse, and create a new project from existing samples. You will be able to choose from a list (this samples come from the sdk, if you downloaded them).
There are some games (snake, ...) and demo apps like API demos.
And Eclipse is very good for Android development, especially if you use the plugin ADT tools.
I am more than happy to have all the eyes I can on my code. I would post a link, but (no rant here)...
AWOL: ArchWiki Offline
by
Tetractys Productions
Search for this on the Google App Store with search term "archwiki".
The code isn't great as I am a novice with both Java and Android, but you will find use of Activities, WebViews, Menus, using external Jars and perhaps a little more. If your scholarly background leads you to make a suggestion or two... please do.
Also... don't buy most of the books. They suck. The "cookbooks" seem pretty good and the Android Developer Documentation and Stackoverflow are your friends. I wasted enough money on Android books I will never read. Hope you don't fall for that too.
Rant:
10 post requirements encourages low quality posts. Perhaps its a good trade-off, but from where I'm sitting I'm drinking HaterAde.
Hello!
I'm interested is there any Android e-book available?
I want to get to known with Android platform to start creating some applications, I do know that's based on Java, and that's not my field... so I would need something for like "begginers".
Thanks
Well, I would recomend you an Amazon Kindle Fire but if you like something for a "begginer", what about a Nook Tablet?
Take a look at this. Posted by the man cyanogen himself.

If your thinking about an e-ink reader, the Sony PRS-T1 e-reader is running Android and is easily rooted to allow custom apps.
I was thinking about trying to learn to program on Android. I have some very simple java programming knowledge from a while ago but that's about it. I was wondering if anyone had any website or book suggestions for beginners.

first thing YouTube
second Google
that's all you need...
note: just keep away from thinks like Java for dummies....
Google has a very nice guide for android programming, lots of examples and lots of info for newbies.
In my opinion, You should also know something about Java Web Programming.
Google is the best book for android programmers, I think.
Ya I've Google around and looked at a lot of sites and books there are a lot. Any certain suggestions or should I just pick any?
Hello xda, as u can see i am new to this site.
I joined because I recently had an idea to make an app that would stream music to my phone. I want anyone to be able to use this app.
Here are my questions tho:
First of all i have no clue where to start. I have seen some ways on how to stream online radio stations, but thats not what i am looking for. I want this app to be like a radio station, but play only certain artist off of my computer. It does not have to be fancy. Im looking for a program to use to develop this app, or insight on how to do it. PLEASE help if anyone understands what i am asking for lol

First things first I would start by learning Java and taking a look at the official Android developer documentation and training. For developing your app the Eclipse IDE and the ADT bundle (Android Development Bundle which includes the Eclipse IDE and Adroid SDK) will include all the tools you need to get started. Once you have worked through writing some basic apps,I would recommend checking out this tutorial on how to make a basic music streaming app. While the tutorial is outdated and uses an outdated version of Android the principles and concepts shown still very much apply today.
I have limited knowledge of Java already, just basics. In that TUT he is using http to stream his music. My question for this is there anyway to not do it via http but rather straight off my hdd or even cloud?? Also I do appreciate you replying so quickly, the TUT you sent is very helpful.

What your looking for is something similar to this app here. One way would be to use cloud storage api's for Android such as Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. to stream the music. Directly off your hdd do you run Linux or Windows because you could look into integrating Samba share as a possibility. Also I would recommend then brushing up on your Java knowledge to make your Android programming experience more enjoyably and seamless (Not having to look up new Java things every minute).

I love your idea, but really love your desire to make it yourself. A tutorial is the best way to learn app creation. When you "walk" thru the process, or learn as you go, you are learning a new skill that you can expand into other avenues.
I have taken app creation to making my website so others can take their great idea and make it into a reality....good luck and have fun!
