Looking for a good Android developer

Hi all,
we're looking for an Android app developer, to create at least two apps. One is pretty simple, the other a bit more complicated. Both apps are already created for iPhone, so basically we need them to be available for Android.
All the details will be provided by email.
Contact me if you have time and experience, and affordable pricing
Cheers,
R.
I dont know about iphone development, but you can organize develop entirely in java to gain platform independent solution
android does not run the standard java byte code.
If you think you can go multiplatform by writing once, the answer is no.

Application Development

Hi Everyone
I am planning to develop a Horoscope application for Android 2.1 + and need some help, advice on how I could go about it, apologies for the lame idea but I need to do this for a specific audience that do not have such application available for their language. I have not developed anything of this level of complexity and need some assistance if possible.
The app will need to look similar to this comitic.com/android/dailyhoroscope-application and will be free source for an audience of another language, the Horoscope readings are taken from a specified RSS feed.
I am using the latest Eclipse IDE with Android SDK for development.
If anyone has any source code that could help, please let me know.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Any comments are welcome
Regards

Adding basic smartwatch functionality

I'm looking to make a smartwatch app for XDATV. I have an existing app and I'd like to make it use the smartwatch APIs. I'm wondering if there's an open source example somewhere in which someone added Sony Smartwatch capabitlities to an existing application so I may read the code and learn.

Where's your existing app?
Have you considered making a separate app for the SmartWatch instead?

Yes there are some example apps from Sony. You can extend your own app to include support for the Sony SmartWatch.

Advise needed: How do I go about developing my first android app ?

Hi,
I am a recently laid off 30 year old SAP consultant from India. Over the last few weeks, I have been reading about the wonderful world of android apps. There is a great opportunity in India for android apps as millions of smart phones are sold every year. I have decided on building apps targeted at the Indian stock market - like stock screeners, that help people reach a proper investment decision. I want to make money out of my apps, so I want then to be fairly professional so that somebody buying them wont feel cheated. Also, there are not many (any) stock screener apps targeted at Indian stock market. So there is an opportunity there and I want this idea to be my first.
But how do I go about it ? I learnt Java at college, 10 years ago. My Java is highly amateurish even after I refreshed it over the last few weeks.I have bought a book on MIT App Inventor...and developed a few simple example apps already and tested them on my mobile. I am not yet sure App Inventor can help me develop more complex apps like the one I mentioned above.
So, I am desperately looking for advise from people who have been there, done that. How do I go about developing my first app ? Should I go about it the hard way - learn Java better ? Read a book on Android application development ? Build Web Apps using HTML5, JavaScript, JQuery ? Or stick to MIT App Inventor ? Try some app builder development tool like Tiggzi, Codiqa or Kinvey ?
I really need your advise as I really need to develop something quickly and make money out of it. :fingers-crossed:
Hi!
As far as i can help....i made some apps, some of them native with Java and others with HTML5.
From my experience, if you plan to make somekind of "atlas app (like wikipedia)" or not very user interface intensive or if you already know html5+css+javascript, you could go with html5, but i will always recomend native with Java as you have much more control over you app.
Anyway, if starting from 0, go for Java (Android SDK) get any tutorial around the web, there are tons of them, some better than others ofc, and free.
Hope you find your way to go!
good luck!

Thanks for that. But may I also know your opinion on MIT App Inventor ?
I started with App Inventor and quickly out grew it. Using java will make it easier to move on to complex apps or add more complexity to any current ones.

I personally wouldnt use app inventor nor any other kind of "easy app maker"
I would not use the inventor, too.
I recommend reading the Head's First Java books (skip the UI part) and for Android the Vogella tutorials.

(Btw, you cannot build an app quickly to make big money. If you want to be successful, you need to spend a lot of time on development.)

My Hibernate trainer quoted the following "You guys are brought up with IDE we used to compile on console". My sincere suggestion even in this RAPID developmental technologies around refresh your "Java skills" on console (DOS or Unix your wish) and make use of Eclipse IDE with Android SDK plugins for fast development. That would do. Start with Eclipse Helios and Google Android SDK and AVDs. Here you go... http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
I have developed a couple of very good apps and I use one myself but Google play store expects payment to become one of their developers Why should I pay for my own app to releasing to public for free? I choose XDA let them validate and evaluate my apps and enjoy. Let us CJava++++
The day is not far may be you get donated enough expand your ideas.
My advice is - don't read books, just start coding. A year ago I knew absolutely nothing about Java or Android. Find a webpage with sample android Activity. Start spawning your code from there. That's how I did it. Then lear something about deriving from View class... and so on...
Hey guys, thank you for all the advise. I will go through what each one of you has said and do things systematically.....I am basically starting from zero......so, lets see how far I go....and I will inform you guys about my progress and seek guidance from you.
Thanks again.

Best site there is to start it has a training part and other examples. I'd personally work my way up from there if I was starting now.

I didn't like the site when I started. In my opinion it is too difficult for beginners.
Better now

Yea it wasn't always good but now they have a good training part + they provide sample code that you can run and fiddle with
It has a couple good step by step stuff, but its mostly "add this code" and has snippets that don't often make sense till you have a decent understanding of the rest of the code.

M26 R-watch SMARTWATCH: 3rd party apps/hacks/tips, etc.

This thread is to create a presence for the R-watch M26 and other R-watch versions, to solicit/encourage development of related software, and post related comments.
Has anyone been working on this? I find it hard to believe, for example, that no one has innovated ways to improve their software/visual interface, or at least create some new watch faces?
The manufacturer has just two items on the Google Play Store. At least make grammatically correct, ENGLISH-ONLY versions (without Chinese lettering). Other language translations could be added more easily from the English.
How about making Android wear, Windows, Sony or Apple watch apps compatible with it?
What's on YOUR wish list?
The watch sells like crazy, I can't believe there's nothing else out there.
I Emailed them over two months ago, but so far, no response. BTW, I was polite. <wink>
Comments? Feedback? An APP I missed that's already out there?
Oh, and welcome to this thread.

There are several posts here on the M26. You can probably find do a lot of what you're interested in here. Just search for M26.
