Getting started with C++ for windows mobile

Hello Everyone,
I'm just wondering what tutorials and or howto's and or any websites that you can offer then will be of help in getting started to develop apps for windows mobile. I'm looking at C++ but I understand that the managed is easier to program. Which one are you programming in?

the best place to start is MSDN Libraries and also check out this post

Looking for Developers for Public Online Application Libary

Greetings all,
I'll cut right to the chase. I'm looking for a enthusiastic developer to help me develop an application for a 'iPhone' style app store.
I have some rough ideas on how to go about this, but im not completely in touch with the development of Windows Mobile Based applications.
The application will essentially connect to a hosted website of mine containing free / opensource / demo WM6 applications with the option to download and install to your phone.
I've thought of using a RSS style backbone for the application as i think it would be the easiest way to go about receiving updates from the website with links to .cab 's for download.
I'm aiming for this to be a free hosting service for aspiring developers to get their applications out there and easily accessable for others on their WM6 devices
The only thing i can really offer in return is credit on my application hosting page for the client software, and a agreed percentage of any revenue i may or may not receive in the future.
I am aware of the proposed one by MS but they are asking $99 for devs to post their applications on there, i would like for this to be a free alternative for poor devs.
Sorry for the long post, and any thoughts regarding this will be greatly appreciated! If anyone is further interested, provide your email and i can write up a more detailed explaination with diagrams.
**Edit: I've got a professional web developer who is a friend of mine on the Site side of things

I'll be keen to help out on the Web Side of things. Looks like M$ Apps is gonna be a failure.
Email me: 89jase<at>gmail<dot>com
Hope a few people get on board, sounds like a great idea!

Thanks Jase!
I thought no one here wanted to help. I'll be in touch with some further details.
Though i still need a someone to point me in the right direction with the client side of it. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Stop developing such things, that already exists...

scilor,
Not that im trying to be rude when i say this, but why?
It's something i want to do, you havn't inputed contructively so why bother at all?
Futhermore, i do not know of a solution such as this currently developed. So if this is the case, perhaps you could link me to it? That would be helpful.

Which tools you use to develop your ROMS?

Hi guys, sorry if my question has been asked a zillion times, I can't seem to find the right pointers.
I want to know how do you develop or create your ROMS so that I can create my own and share them with you. I have no real experience yet with WM, but I do have a lot with Linux embedded systems.
I recently ported an embedded Android OS on a micro-controller card for an industrial application (yes Android is getting popular as a good solution for embedded/mobile devices besides phones). I want to start a personal project on my Touch Viva with Android.
So any links or pointers to existing tools or documentation will be appreciated.
I share your enthusiasm with the Touch Viva so anything I learn and develop for it I will share it here.
Thanks.

Oh goody.
Somebody is working on android for Opal.

Hi,
If you want to continue the work of porting Android to Touch viva left by musikmonk (Lost his device ) then i don't think you need to learn rom cooking and stuffs. Rom cooking will only help when you want to make a rom (dual booting) with windows mobile and android. But there is no point to make such rom as of now because Android is not yet ready for daily use.
So i beleive that if you want to continue the project head over to : http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/wing-linux/wiki there you will get all the resource etc. Even you will get support there. And for testing purpose you can always depend on xda.
Hope that helps you.

as just jegan have said
could help the wing linux project
many people will be grateful
and on xda you can recive help with the testing phase

[Q] writing code

Hi i need help!!!! lol i am new to develepment and i believe i have a great idea for an app, but i dont have any expirence writing code. if anyone knows of a great preferably free tutorial on how to write code i will be using eclipse im all ready to write. but i dont know where to start. my app will be changing something in the internal workings of android.....therefore probably will require superuser permissions......im so lost i dont even have a clue.....lol

if you have NO programming experience what so ever than you should start by learning Java first (get an ebook or find an online webiste that teaches it to beginners or get a physical book on it, I got one last year called "Java: in easy steps" and it really helped me). Once you know enough about java, you should get a book on programming android (I got the "for dummies" one) ... make sure its a new edition (i.e., covers upto android 2.1/2.2 at least). the developers.android site that google set up is confusing and not overly helpful I found, but the books written by other people provide good insight into the theory as well as provide many examples on almost every kind of program.
Good luck!

ok thanks for the input.....i would like to learn for free as much as possible if anyone else has any input it would be greatly appreaciated.

[Q] App development help

Hi everybody,
So, I'm volunteering at a non profit and recently I was approached with a proposal about an app for the organization which would consist of a small questionnaire to tell people if we can help them. Something like:
o Are you between the ages of
o Do you live in
o Are you unemployed
o etc. etc.
And the radio buttons would work as check marks that depending whether these are checked or not, an if then would kick in and direct the user to another page, either proceeding instructions or a sorry, you do not meet the criteria.
I'm familiar with some coding, a little fortran, java script and php but I just have no clue how to create an app. I downloaded the developing tools from google but I'm just blank. Can someone point me on the right direction or maybe there are templates of this kind that need just a little tweaking. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'd suggest you creating just a web page
I have made a demo trogper.cf/surv_demo

No, that's the easy part, I'm still fresh on client side programming. What I want is an app for android.

Hello
Eclipse or Android Studio are necessary tools to develop native java apps for Android but you should have basic java (and at least OO language) notions to code it.

Get Eclipse or Android Studio.
Then...
There are loads of tutorials on the net for basic android/java programming.
For example...
mkyong.com/android/android-checkbox-example/
tutorialspoint.com/android/android_checkbox_control.htm
would get you started with your app.
you'll need to put www before the links, i'm new so not allowed to post links yet

If you want to simplify your life a little try NativeScript or Corona SDK.
