made some basic programs and need to know how to sign .apks

if you're using eclipse, just go to file->export project
and it will walk you through the process
Agree. Very simple through eclipse.

Dear Members, first of all hello to all..
I'm trying to create a update.zip file that removes the default applications that samsung puts on Samsung S and installs one or two more.
But I'm having a problem with the signing of update.zip
I have the struture:
system\app\xpto.apk
META-INF\com\google\android\update-script
and now I know I have to sign it but I dont seem to find a working tutorial, I've read some with signapk.jar and others without it...
Can someone plz point me in the right direction so that I can accomplish it?
Thanks

Ok..i m aware that there are many threads and numerous posts explaining stuff like making your own app, editing an apk and so on but i hv this one app from market which shows information from a website. Its like how you have a quote for a day..its the same thing.
So this is app is a widget and it retreives the quote of the day from some website but the prob with this it it doesnt update the quote on itself..everytime i have to manually remove the widget and add it again for it to refresh the quote. there is a service which is running by the widget but it doesnt help at all...unless you don remove the widget and add it again to the homescreen it wont update...i have contacted the developer but he isnt responding..so i thaught about doing it myself.
basically i want to add a 'refresh' button onto the widget which will try sending the request to server and update the quote for the day.
I don want you guys to give me d coding or algorithm...i just want to know how do i go about accessing the code...i hv done programming in java but m new to android.
So firstly what should i do...rip the apk off so that i see all the files ? next what?
any specific file that i should be modifying...or some tinkering with the service file ?
i m a comp noob...so i just need steps on how to go abt modifying the apk..rest all the codes and methods to do it i will manage on myself..so i just need to know how to tear the apk and get to the main coding part...
all replies will be whole heartedly appreciated.
FYI : i m on android 2.2 usin it on htc evo but for now i will only be doing the testing of the app on an emulator..and i have access to only .apk file of that appliaction...nothing else.
Thanks ! Cheers !
Is it open source? because otherwise I'm pretty sure modding someone else's app is illegal. If it is open source you can download the source where ever it may be hosted or you could try using this

Can someone put a video or tell me how to make an app in eclipse
Just go to eclipse.palm.com, there you will find everything. and use google, he's your friend.
I had someone develop an app for me, I have the apk, and the source files, what do I need to sign it and submit it? I have Java sdk, android sdk, latest eclipse and the adt plugin.

I still can't figure out how to open up the app in eclipse, this is literaly the first thing Java or serious programming related I've ever done.
Create a new Android project in Eclipse and select "Create project from existing source" then hit Browse and find the source folder with AndroudManifest.xml in the root folder. After that just follow Gene Poole's link.
Okay, I figured it out, I just had to open it in the project browser and I was able to complie, sign and submit it to the market. Now its time to read some android for dummies books and make my own apps.

So I would like to learn how to develop apps for the android OS. I'm not sure where I should put this (sorry if in wrong section). I would like to learn how to code and do all the steps in app development. I have absolutely ZERO experience in coding other then changing the dedicated RAM for Minecraft. If someone could tutor me maybe twice a week or link me to other forums that explain this sort of thing and provide support for people. I would be very happy for either if the two! Thank you guys!
Learning Java
Hi NamesBass
Android development is basically Java. I learned it from a while. The easiest way is to watch some YouTube videos. Also very helpful are the official tutorials and sample apps. You can find them here: developer.android.com/training (Sorry I haven't 10 posts yet so I can't post direct URLs). Then start coding and when you stuck somewhere use google and learn from it

read book
read books, good books on programming - Android in 24 hours (loren Dersy( i ), Sheyn Kondor), and Android 2 ( Reto Mayer)
Thank you for the help.

So I have run into trouble doing this lesson and I'm not sure why I didn't do it right. I thought I followed all the steps but my code lines and the ones on the website are different. Could you give your thoughts? Thanks!

okay so i downloaded that and tried to set it up but an error message came up saying I need to add an environment variable for JAVA_HOME. I did this and it went something like C: Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\Java and when I launched the program, it told me to direct it to JDK not jre7, but I dont have a JDK file. I did a system search and nothing came up.

You are pointing to the jre7 folder in Program Files/Java. You should change that to the jdk folder.
e.g. My JAVA_HOME variable is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05
So I change jre7 to JDK(whatever)?

Why are you using JDK 8 for Android? It's not officially supported by Android SDK. Do you see any improvements/problems in compare with JDK 7?
