Hi All,
I'd like to learn how to develop applications for mobile platforms such as the iPhone, WinMo7 and Android. Can someone advise what tools, development apps, etc do I need to get started? Also do I have to register with Apple, Microsoft, Google, etc? Lastly, what would the ballpark startup costs be (licensing, hardware/software purchases, etc)?
Android development is free. You use Eclipse as IDE and the Android SDK - works on Windows and Linux. You are not forced to register with Google at development time.
When publishing on the Android Market you must pay $25 and register with Google. It's a one time fee - even if you only publish freeware applications.
You can post further questions in these groups. They provide THE info on Android development.

Hi all!
I want to develop a Secure SMS application for mobile phones. The idea would be to first add some security primitives to the OS and then to use these to write secure applications (such as SSMS).
Now, the thing is that this is experimental, meaning my goal is not (yet) to distribute an application reaching the most people, i.e. I would like to first limit the project to one platform and see how well it works there.
My question to you is: Which platform would be best suited for that (or alternatively: which platform should I avoid...), i.e. which platform has the best SDK for this kind of thing and how easy is it to do?
Thanks for your answers.

Well, to really be honest with you, my experience tells me that secure SMS ans secure-whatever will be best suited to those blackberry people. The reason they do buy a blackberry is for it's security, or so it seems.
Us Windows Mobile users could of course take advantage of an app like this, and it's way easier to program for a WM device, since there's emulators and SDKs everywhere.
Easiest platform actually would probably be java then its portable

I'm also interested. But I think you also have to specify at what level you program already. What languages your program in or if you're a complete beginner, like moi hehe, in order to get adequate recommendations
i just walked into a book store and picked up idiots guide to android, idiots guide to java, and a cup of coffee.... form what i can see, alot of app developement happens in java (or the tutorials i've seen are by people who prefer java) so I just figure i start this way... also, elicpse looks like it could do many diffrent languages so as long as your version does the language you know (should you already know one) you should be golden...
Great! Thanks for the feedback guys!

Hi all,
I wanted just to bring to the attention of all "newbies" like me on the Android application development, that now it's possible to develop really good apps in a very short time.
I think it could be a very good start point for starting developing Android apps.
I learned about this environment by chance, just performing some google searches for starting collecting info on Android development (Eclipse, ADT, etc.etc.), just when I started to be highly bored with Java.
The good news is that "no Java" language knownledge is required since all the application develepment is done using the BASIC
For furter info about this wonderful IDE (with integrated Debugger) you can refer to the following website : www[.]basic4ppc[.]com
Well....what else to say....have a good Android app development !
If you decide, after having used the trial version, to purchase a license you can use the discount code "bhzepr" to have it with 50% off
(Important: to use the discount code you have to select the PLIMUS purchase link and insert then it in the proper field)
Using it you can have the Enterprise version at half price.
Have fun !
Hello guys, I have a query about Mobile App Development Platform. What is the best and easiest Mobile App Development Platform that I can use in creating a mobile app? Is it open source or I need to pay for it? tnx guys.
Appery is a cloud-based mobile app builder that you can use to create apps for Android, iOS and Windows Phone, and includes Apache Cordova (Phone Gap) with access to its built-in components.
Since the builder runs in the cloud, there's nothing to install or download, and it's easy to get started quickly. It includes a visual editor using drag and drop components to build the UI. You can connect to any REST API and use it in your app, and instantly add a cloud database and backend to your app if you need to store data.
You can add powerful functionality with the Appery plugin catalog, or create your own custom private plugins to use in your apps. Collaboration is simple, allowing you to share your mobile project with development teams, business users and customers in real time.
Price: Plans start at Free and go up to $180 per month for Premium
Thanks 4 the info @MihaelYank

Hi Community,
I'll first start by introducing myself, I'm Shaun from Sydney, Australia. I run a business support company that assists other businesses in their endeavours. I am working with a client at the moment that is in need of some help with a product.
To assist them, I'm in need of a boffin that knows the ins and outs of Android APK's and how to make things work. I need to get in touch with people to discuss if it could be possible to combine either Android TV, or Google TV to a device that is already running a version of Android.
It will eventually become a consumer product after the software work has been done and needs a face-lift from its current form. Ultimately, Google TV is where we want it to land.
The right help in this adventure will be paid. Let me get that clear and open from the start.
If such a person/s exist here, could you please contact me so that we might start conversations to get this done!
EDIT: I'm also open to advice/guidance as to how to get this done with Google's blessing. Again, this will end up being a Consumer product, so I don't want to be running into any legal issues from using a Google product without their knowledge or consent etc.
obvious question: how much you pay?
