AFAIK Gcam is already a mod of Google Camera app - latest version available is 7.4, targeted towards Android 10 or later
Look also here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/google-camera-mods

Oh i see. I thought Gcam was just short for Google Camera. I hope you got my question though. How do I get started with Making these mods ? Since other developers are already making it, I would like to use one of their apk's as a base to make my own mod. How do I go about that.
Download a Gcam apk , decompile it and then investigate the program code.

Hi,
This app in the Play Store is not compatible with Android 4 ICS and apparently the developer has abandoned it. (play.google.com/store/search?q=WebSMS+Developergar)
Is there a chance that someone here can continue this project? It is a really great app (sends 10 international sms/day for free) and I don't want to miss it when upgrading.
There is also an api available from developer garden. (w w w.developergarden.com/apis/apis-sdks/send-sms/)
I would be really grateful if someone here were to take over this project!
Cheers!
P.s.: also see this thread for description of the issue: code.google.com/p/websmsdroid/issues/detail?id=635&q=ics&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Product%20Component%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars
It's sad that the developer abandoned the project. It used to work great.
However, the developergarden APIs are publicly available. When I have time, I will dig in the code, and attempt to build a little PHP script that can be used to send SMS via a browser. Once that is done, I will port the working prototype to an Android app/fix the connector.
Is there any progress with this? Would still love to use this!

Hello,
I'm fairly new to developing in general and I am some what intimidated by what I've been told I may have to learn to develop for Android.
Here's what I've done so far by reading the threads:
I've downloaded the latest Android SDK and its tools
I read through the ADB man page and have created my path to my Device
I know how to push, pull, log and from Terminal.
I was told that I may need to learn Java to develop for Android. If this is the case, do any of you recommend specific books?
If so - could you put the Amazon link in a reply? Or maybe just the author's name?
Thank you in return.

Actually i would recommend you to start devving by making themes because it only involves editing xmls in apk and changing images...it will also help you understand how to decompile and recompile apk which is the most basic of modding!!!

Which is creating themes, not developing, they are two totally different things.

I was thinking about making some themes for devices and what not. So if you have any resources PM me - I'd be interested in that as well.

Thank you thewadegeek - I'll be doing some researching. Ubuntu 12.04 is fine for developing right? or would I need something else?

Hi There
Ubuntu is fine for development, You're going to want to install eclipse. You're really tackling 2 things here, Java Development and how that applies to Android.
If you're starting from the very beginning then some good resources are.
Android Developer web site [ developer.android.com ]
This should be the first place you go to for android development, it contains the documentation for the android framework as well as some additional howto's etc. The Installing the SDK [ developer.android.com/sdk/installing ] will guide you through getting eclipse setup and ready for Android Development. You should then be able to follow the Building Your First App [ developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp ] guide, to create your first Android app.
For Java Development in General the Oracle website has some good resources.
Oracle Java Tutorials Index [ docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial ]
If you're completely new to software development then you'll want to read The Java Language Section [ docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java ] , this explains Object Oriented Programming and it's conecpts. I would probably look at the Get Started Section [ docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/getStarted ] also, although you maybe able to get by with the Android Stuff.
Hope That Helps and Good Luck!

Hi I've already gotten the Android SDK and as previous users have given me, I also have Java books and Android development books as well but I'm happy to try another thing out as well. Thanks for the informative articles.

I just picked up a physical book of Learning Android 2 from my library. Is there a different framework between versions?
I would honestly say there is no starting point.
You can start developing kernels. Even I try to do a basic understanding of how they work. I do basic undervolting for my phone and few mods.
You can also try learning java and contribute to Android AOSP or CyanogenMod
Or yeah theming is also an option.
I would also like an answer to this...
I have ubuntu installed, I have Java experience, I have the Android SDK installed.
Are there any tutorials out there that give you a step by step guide on how to build a fully functioning Android ROM from scratch?
I've had a look around and different tutorials are telling me different things and they all seem to say "this will not make a full ROM". I have a phone that isn't widely supported (Galaxy S2 LTE i9210t Australia) and since Samsung have delayed ICS for our device for about the 100th time, I'd like to learn how to develop ICS for our handset.
Our handset doesn't even have a forum. We have one thread with quite a few people crying out for a decent, stable ROM 4.0+ and I'd like to help.

Im not going to link to them because they are common as muck on xda but look for guides for building from source. If you have the source, you can make any changes you like without having to patch stuff together.
I havent personally started doing this yet but ive been messing with android for about 2 years now and ive just started creating my own roms etc.

I recommend you learn basic java then check out the hello world tutorial on developer android page.
focus more time on programming then reading, play around with the code.
and good luck.

If you don't have any experience with Android app development, then i don't recommend it for your very important final year project... You better stick to a Platform that you're familiar with ... If you still want to go with android, Then Do check out the app development forums on XDA, Google, Android Docs (official ones) and StackOverflow..
Hi All,
I'm waiting my amazfit (bought yesterday), I'm interested in creating simple open source apps for this device.
Where I can find resources for development?
I didn't found any link to custom app sources, there are some copyright issues or what?
Best Regards
Valerio
Where did you look?
In this very forum are a few, like a TabataTimer.
Many thanks for the advice, found it on github.
As far as i understood the avd virtual machine has to be set as mips 320x300. Somebody can confirm or share the right setting?
Where did you find it?

Can you share this github where you found the information?
And also, did you managed to successfully develop an app?

I was wondering if it's possible to get the old youtube apks from around 2011-2014 and modify them to work with the modern APIs, or modify the new youtube app to look and feel like the older apks, since as we all know, those older versions got axed by google. I'm willing to try to do this myself, I'd just need a few starting tips.

Oh sorry I didn't notice they are not working. I think you'll find them somewhere else.
Any update about this? would be nice to make old youtube apks work, for old ios there is: http://tubefixer.ovh/
which fixes the old version using an API Key, i think that we can do the same on the Android app and also make it connect to the TubeFixer API: http://api.tubefixer.ovh/
