Hey everyone, I'm new to XDA forums. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me I want to create an android app for a forum site. It would be similar to the app for this site. I know basics but this I think is out of my league. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks alot.
The simple (and easier) way to go about it is to create an app that has one activity with a webview in it that points to your forum site(mobile view).
That way you can have a downloadable app with a nice icon and everything but you don't have to reinvent the wheel of your forum in java.
like a link app easy to make in appinventor

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)

Hi all
Ive just started to make apps using the app inventor and have done all of the tutorials but cant seem to work out how to set a background for the app, i have tried setting an image for the main screen but as soon as i put a button on it, it creates a white banner :/
Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks, Mitch
P.s. Sorry if this is in the wrong section

I think general android development section would be better, or general android q&a

ok devs or people who know how to build apps.
i would like to become a dev by building apps but iv searched google and xda and i cant find the right answers so i wandered if anybody knows how to build an app for our x8.
if you could give me maybe a step step tutorial on how to build them? sorry if im asking to much but im keen
cheers.
That kind of thread would be pointless cuz there are many types of app eg. Pulse with a clock widget have an entirely different code. Some apps do some things, other apps do other things. It's impossible to have a general or global tutorial of how to make an app.

I've learnt java from tutorials on YouTube and with the right means (Eclipse, SDK and some other stuff) I was able to do it.

Easy way out:
Google App Inventor
AppsGeyser
AndroMo
Conduit Mobile
wix.com ( creates mobile sites)
I know more, but can't think of them.
And I guess you probably want the coding tutorial but I don't know either so.....
Leave a thanks if I helped!
Forgive me if I'm not being PC, but I'm trying to make an app or course. This app if for a website that Veteran owned an operated. It's a clothing line essentially but there is also a Facebook page where we post our content. I'm trying to wrap all of this up in an app, and then some. It is shifting towards a forum non the less. My question is how would I make the app so people and post in the forums, blog, special content, and the store with being able to pay for merchandise while in the app. I'm using Eclipse. I'm very new, and don't really even have my feet wet just more like maybe a toe. I have a simple UI design that will be defined in the future. My main goal is to have it operational before its pretty.
You can send requests to your Server using Apache HttpClient. But i'll be necessary that your website includes an API for that operations..
Facebook for exaple has it's own Api you can use
Regards
Thanks I'll ask the website owner. I'm also having trouble with getting the buttons to actually do something. Like the forum button to take you to a forum page.

Can exactly explain your problem?
Button button = (Button) findView..
button.setOnClickListener...
Regards
I need to buttons to do their jobs. If I tap the forums button I want it to bring me to the forums. If I tap the store button I want it to take me to the store. Its the basic operation of the buttions, to nav around basically.

My first advice would be look into Android L Design
secondly not exactly understanding what you mean by you want the app to act as a wedding info plus an invitation for your sisters wedding. mind elaborating a bit more?
Like are you trying to invite people from the app?
Or are you sending the app to people?
As for info on the app I am assuming your trying to make the app like an invitation I think? Not exactly sure what your asking so clear the question up a bit and ill try to help ya out.
Hi...sorry for late reply .I will send the app to people.The app will give all info regarding bride and groom.. venue..some background music.and should contain the facility as the app user can send text msg to couple and can send his wishes using pic which can be clicked by camera.and when he press the submit button the msg should deliver to google drive or something.I am not familiar here..can you please guide me???
