Hi, I'm having a hard time working within Eclipse and getting started. I'm used to Visual Studio and thought I could start writing code, debug and go.
What I've done so far is downloaded Eclipse for android developer tools, and started downloading a bunch of plug ins for different versions under the Android SDK. I have downloaded many sdk build-tools, but I'm unsure how to compile and debug (the equivalent of hitting F5 in VS) so I can see what my application previews as and test it.
Can someone help me get to the point where I can write code and test/debug it visually? I've installed API's 14-20.
Thanks for reading.
I watched the video here
http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-t...-1-setting-up-eclipse-and-android-sdk-xda-tv/
trying to resolve this on my own, still no luck. Is there anyone who can get my setup, so I can stat building Hello World projects?
Here is what I am seeing with the most basic application for "my first app"
I can't post a screen capture because of lack of number of posts, but here is the link with some spaces

You most likely never got an answer as you provided no real troubleshooting info like IS version, how you installed it and where. Also there are many tut know the site about setting up eclipse. Best bet might be looking in the theme threads as that is what it is used for primarily. Also might check the google developers page. You have to remember this is not a support forum. Basic questions like this most of the time will go unanswered

RF,
Well, we all started out with our first posts just like you, so you've already started on your journey.
My best advice would be to read around and research the topics that might interest you. If you post, try to give as much information as you can, be polite and respectful as you've already shown, and show thanks to those that have helped you.
You might want to start by looking into the topics listed in the Eris Roll-up Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=756775 which should give you a good start on things.
There's lots of great folks here at XDA as well as other forums (such as AndroidForums, which you'll find many of these same folks, although XDA is much bigger and has more members).
If the forum search doesn't return what you are looking for, try using Google to help search the very same forum by doing a search such as "site:forum.xda-developers.com eris overclocking". This will often return results that the forum search will not, but the forum search also has other features and benefits too (search by poster, est.).
You can check if your phone is rooted in a couple of ways:
1. Download and install the free "Android Terminal Emulator" app, type in "su" (without the quotes, of course), and if the prompt changes from "$" to "#" then you are rooted.
2. Download and install the free "drocap2" screen capture app and try to run it. This app requires root and if you are indeed rooted, you will get a request from the "SuperUser" app asking you to "Allow" or "Deny" use of root (that's your indication that you are indeed rooted).
Welcome and cheers!
Can someone tell me where can I find tutorials and books for programming Android Apps? I already installed Eclipse and now I need to read something that will help me how to begin the programming. I know some Java programming and know I need to learn how to apply it in developing Android Apps. I need some sources other than developer.android.com
Here's a tutorial:
http://www.vogella.de/articles/Android/article.html
Also, you can always use Google:
https://www.google.com/search?q=android development tutorial
Or even YouTube:
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=android+development+tutorial
to find tutorials.

OK. I'm new to this forum and I didn't expect answers so quick I think this is more then enough for beginning. I'll see what will I do with these, and then if I need (and I hope I will), I'll search for more. Thanks a lot guys
Hello everyone,
I was hoping that xda members may be able to help me in an experiment. I work for a company that develop workflow applications and we have one (SocialView) that is built for Social Media. http://kc-ol.com/socialmedia.php
I am trying to gage how the number of followers effects influencer ratings in a number of tools and how effective they are at recognising trends.
If you would like to help me, your part is simple. There are several ways;
1) Follow me on Twitter @SociallySteve. I will of course follow you back.
2) you can further help by Posting a Tweet including my name (@SociallySteve) and the word "SocialView"
This is really going to help me gage which tools work when monitoring SM Interactions going forward.
Sorry for the off topic message and thank you to everyone who can help. it is greatly appreciated.

I have application that I have been developing for over a year and half now. I used the app to teach myself Android programming. When I started the development Gingerbread was the main sdk and that is what I targeted. Well now ICS and Jellybean are out and I was looking at migrating my app from Gingerbread to the newer sdks.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips, tutorials or any other areas that I could review to get ideas on how to most efficiently go about this process. I would like to keep everything in the same files if possible and not have to start from scratch.
Any help or pointers are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Eric
