[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] sergioq:
Hello All,

Will try and keep this short: Am an old time developer, since 1979. I was self-taught, as a kid, never one class. The weakness there is that I never learned most of the terms.

So when learning new languages, it was harder since I didn’t have a reference point. i.e. may no longer be used, but I created “linked lists”, just never knew they were called that.

Anyway, I never got past using C and WinSDK. And I learned just enough Perl on the fly as I needed it to create some backend parts to some of my apps.

I am desperate to start a new project, preferring to do it on Android first. As hard as I looked for LOCAL developers with serious programming experience, and preferably some Voice SDK experience I failed. I tried Craigslist and Meet Up. Nothing.

So I need to do this MYSELF. Or at least start it and come up with the alpha-prototype on my own.

After all that explaining, what’s the BEST (and least expensive) means I can purchase to teach myself programming an Android device?

I always loved forums, we’re talking back when NEWSGROUPS were the way to go. Because out there was always someone who knew…and was willing to share their point of view.

Currently using a PC-Windows environment, so any IDEs in that arena would be preferred.

So any help, any direction would be so appreciated.

Many thanks ahead all,

Sergio

I would definitely recommend grabbing Android studio and looking through Androids developer docs. If you're familiar with java all you really need to know is the Android framework and how everything works together (lifecycles, passing data around, working with various sensors/hardware, etc).

Android studio is free so no cost to you there. If you're not familiar with java there are tons of good resources online :)

Hi!

I agree with [MENTION=6807600]blackangus[/MENTION], i started programming for android with eclipse at that time and some tutorials i found online.

In my experience is a little bit frustrating at the beginning because is has some hard to understand concepts if you come from low level languages.

you can try to follow a basic lessons to start understanding the different parts like,

1) Views ( it cost me pretty much to understand how views and activities work)

2) Networking and async threads (restfull services calls and json manipulation)

3) Play services (push notifications, account registration and such)

this was the approach i took and it helped me a lot, i hope my humble guide helps you too.
[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] mikereidis:
5 years ago I got my intro to Android via Android App Inventor: http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/

Good intro to Android concepts but drawing pictures instead of writing code still can't produce professional apps.

So I dove into learning Android Java. Nice...

My background was in C ; I never quite figured out C++ and have heard since that Java is superior anyway, written for OO instead of adapted from C.

I still program plenty of C for Android NDK low level code.

Before C, I did various assembly/machine languages, including the first CPUs in the mid 1970's and in early 80's front panelled a simple OS into an old PDP-11/05 to use an Apple clone keyboard and a "TV Typewriter" type 6847 Video board I built... :)

Now I'm wondering about iOS Objective C. Much more money still it seems in iPhones/Pads.
[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] monx69:
I am a newbie too. My background is microcontroller programmer, so i use C very often. When i start learning android programming, i begin with learning java and eclipse first, after i got the OOP concept, i begin learn to use android API and Android Studio....when we start from low level language, learning Java is easier... Java basic first then android API....
[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] warfire013:
I am a serious coder, usually working with enterprise applications at my job. In my experience, if you need to learn something new, it is better if we get help from some friends or professional trainers. Saves us a lot of time and trouble. If you want to learn the basics of OOP and are going to build something, I suggest you get help of a professional trainer. You will be clear about the subject matter easily and with your experience, you will achieve progress within no time.
[C++ or Other Android Development Languages] Danzic59:
Wow. I don't feel so bad now. I'm and old geek too. I'm looking at trying to develop a simple game for Android. My last coding was in 1988 using COBOL. I'm a System Analysist but most of my experience was in medical systems and Digital Radiography. I'm basically a College Freshman.

Thanks for the information.

Can we keep this thread open or create another for Q&A from you wiz kids?

A funny note: I was involved with Search and Rescue in 1979. We were a driving force to get SAT phone's going but our budget only allowed for 2 satellites that year. We tested with a fellow driving in California while talking to us in Milwaukee. We only had a 20 minute window , then had to wait till the next.flyover 3 hours later. We've come a long way. Let's keep the momentum going!

i don't think uninstall it will solve because it tried it too.

hard reset and don't use it again

So Ive nerver used encryption just because of having to wipe device if I need to do other things like root flash etc but since development for this phone is null I took the plunge crazy thing is AnTuTu before was at almost 52000 I was expecting a decrease but to my surprise AnTuTu jumped to almost 54000... +1 for a layer of security +2 for not giving up performance..

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] masterfemhp:
Hi, I'm new here, so first I'd like to say hi, I'm the proud and happiest owner of a brand new Moto Maxx (I'm from Argentina).

So far the phone feels great, and after reading this post I decided to turn on Encryption, and so far it works great, since I don't notice anything different with the phone, being snappy as I've felt it these days.

I'm in love with this phone.

««Droid1019, to turn encryption on you need to have full battery (100% charge) AND being plugged in with the charger turbo or otherwise).

It says it takes around an hour, but in my case it wasn't more than 30 minutes I believe)»»

Recommended, although in my case I have one complaint.

I turned encryption with PIN enabled as the unlocking mechanism, and so when the phone turns on it asks for my PIN. But when the phone is locked, anyone can turn it off without the PIN, though making the encryption less effective if my phone gets stolen, since even when locked and encrypted I can't locate my phone with the "find my phone Android equivalent", whose name I can't recall right now.

I really dislike this "feature".

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tristan6100:
Hi there. I have tweaked my phone for extra battery life (custom ROM, kernel, undervolting and multicore power saving) and I would also like to improve performance further more without reducing battery life.

The g3 has a 2560x1440 display or something ridiculously high like that. Its practically the double of 1080p. My PC monitor is 24 inch and has a 1080p resolution. Even though without antialising I can see pixels, its still pretty good. In my opinion, 2560x1440 is way too high for a 5.5 inch screen.

Since 2560x1440 is the double of 1920x1080, reducing the resolution should greatly improve performance. http://www.phonearena.com/news/We-c...and-negligible-battery-life-increases_id65982

However, resolution changer pro and NOMone resolution changer either do not work or cause a bootloot on blisspop 3.6.

Does anyone know of any similar ROMs or alternative apps that will work with blisspop?

Thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sreerag ag:
Decreasing the resolution will certainly increase performance and is also helping me to get the rid of the heating issues that I have faced on my G3. Resolution Changer Power Menu would help to decrease resolution efficiently. But I am not sure how much it would work with blisspop ;) .

Hi. I can't seem to find solution for displaying data in my app. I already did program in regular Java using jTable and DefaultTableModel for adapting data for my table. But what is alternative in A.Studio? Here is what my app looks like:

and data consists of 3 columns:Name,LastName,PhoneNu. seperated by tab:

Here is example how table looks in Java using SWING:

And here is the code I was planing on using:

void showData() {
try {
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
openFileInput("phonebook.txt")));
String line;
StringBuffer stringBuffer = new StringBuffer();
try {
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
stringBuffer.append(line + "\n");
}
//textView.setText(stringBuffer.toString());
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
...
button2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
showData();
}
});

Than you for any advice.
