Also, consider searching the forum in the future

I've used NDrive a lot. A bit chunky to work with but It'll do the job.

[Q] Help With Android Software Development

Hello.
i want to start a development project for bus alert.
the idea is quite simple.
any how,i need some help with coding as there are some things i don't have the experience in.
do you have some manual on how to get the device location using the GPS, how to use information from known web pages on the internet?
thank you!

I don't remember any online resources about it, but http://lmgtfy.com/?q=android+get+gps+data. If you can't find anything you have to buy one of the books about Android programming (I learnt from Hello Android)

Nothing beats the Fora Dictionary. Most of the eBook readers support fora dictionary and yes it is offline. Another good alternative is StartDict.

[Q] Google+ for Legend

Hi All
Does anyone got Google+ on your Legends? Since I don't see it at Android Market and wonder is it device or country/operator restriction...

I have it, and I've reinstalled it while in three different countries. Vietnam's, Japan's, and Canada's Android Markets all have it.
If you have root, use MarketEnabler (from the Market) to fake an American carrier and download the app.
Otherwise look in the General forums for an .apk. ;-)

I did not have any problems downloading it from the Market...

Here you go this apk for Google+.

Thanks everybody but I really wonder why on earth its restricted from the Market and who is the guy (in Google or operator) who suppose to click "magic button"?
It sounds absolutely ridiculous since I can use it through browser but not native Google app from Android phone.

I downloaded Google+ when I was in Singapore though. The Market in SG seems to carry this. Can't find it while I tried to search on the MY Market.
Cheerios.

Rss is your key. Add a rss feeds to your website and make an rss reader for your app.

I know about RSS way...any other way?
I mean does all news app or other apps use RSS feed. Like if you take the example of this Tapatalk app of Xda developers. There are many other similar too.

You could get the source code of the website. Every time there is something new, you could post a notification (maybe you could put a hint into it). That would mean that you needed to check it every day/hour.
Tutorial for the source code: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6503574/how-to-get-html-source-code-from-url-in-android

Is there any specific reason not to use RSS? It would be more more quicker than getting source code and reading it. If you have troubles writing xml parser, there are lots of plugins available and you could use one of them.

No specific reason for not using it bro. Just searching for an alternative.
Thanks
