I'm a software development student but I'm taking no programming classes this semester. I am still very busy but would like something to tinker on to keep me sharp. I can program in Java and C. However, I don't know much about programming on the Android platform. Any suggestions? Phone or otherwise.

The continuum is very robust. You are familiar with its workings, so stick with it. Likewise, you probably won't be able to break it.. for programming, eclipse and the android sdk. Also, go grab all of teal blazers tools and apk manager along with whatever else you may find handy.. start with looking around. Learn the internals, start basic with small xml tweeks, move onto decompressing the smali files and learning that. Ill send you the credentials to the Dev drop box I created and it should have a lot of tools and modified files you can look at within.
Smali= dedicate a few days looking at the code, tracing it everywhere... And I have a pdf that you might like
That's my advice

Ill have a couple projects coming up.

2. I'm on cell so can't link as easy. But xda search Aroma . It's a custom touchscreen recovery. I need some help configuring the files.
Ill post what i have done so far when you get back to me.

What is the best program to use to start creating apps for android if you are a beginner? I tried Appsbar, but it won't let you insert ads.

If you're new to programming in general, try App Inventor;

Not sure if you can do Ads or not.

Well, you can't do ads in AppInventor. Haven't tried Appsbar yet.
And you can't post to market from app inventor.
Thanks for trying though.
Any other suggestions?

I don't know of any tool other than appinventor that lets you create apps without getting down and dirty with the java code. If you're serious about developing android apps you need to bite the bullet and learn java and then pick an IDE and work thru some tutorials.
Two popular IDE's are Eclipse;
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
and Intellij;
http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/
You can find directions for setting up Eclipse on my blog linked below.

Im trying to install this on a old mt3g and or MT4G to give to my kid....but it says i have to install the jar. using active/sync...im using htcsync to the phones internal memory...Htcsync is only allowing me to sync to sdcard....SO THE QUESTION I ASK IS HOW DO I SEND SOMETHING TO INTERNAL MEMORY (IN GENERAL I WOULD LIKE TO LEARN HOW TO INSTALL/PUSH SOMETHING TO ANY PHONES INTERNAL MEMORY, IF AT ALL POSSIBLE ?)
You need to post this in the Q and A section, this has nothing to do with android development. MODS PLEASE REMOVE THIS THREAD TO THE Q AND A SECTION. There is an adb push tutorial somewhere on xda. Use that to learn more.
Why are you so hostile ? RELAX IN JOY THE DAY ITS SUMMER, I've edited my post I do own a MT4G and would be willing to try it on that device also, but before attempting to, I figured I'd give it a go on my old mt3g 1st, possibly avoiding any damage to my new device...SO IF I DID AND PARDON ME, POST IN THE WRONG SECTION MODS PLEASE PLACE IN THE CORRECT SECTION PLEASE AND THANK-YOU
That's why it sucks. Its 113 degrees where I am at. Its horribly hot outside. Summer sucks in Vegas. didn't mean to come off hostile. Long day thus far. :-/
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yes... Wrong forum.
I suggest you go to their homepage and ask for some technical support. If you are using a jar file and it needs active sync.. sounds like you have a windows mobile version of it... Not the apk android would use.
You can find their home page at http://www.clubmz.com/.
And good luck with that cheating spouse.

I'm thinking of making a new guide to help people to learn how to theme. I would like to include screenshots with exact details of what path to the images and xml codes to edit. Also directions on how to decompile, compile apks and the dreaded .9 png's.
This will take me some time to put together so any themers out there who would like to help me please pm me and maybe we can split up the apk's and each take a few to work on.
Not only will this be great for people to learn but also a great referance for us themers by combining our knowledge into 1 place. Who knows maybe we will even learn something new to add to our themes.
Any help will be appreciated!

No not yet. It was just I thought I had. As I was learning to theme I was wishing there was something like this. There are some good guides but they're not as detailed as I would like. They just get your foot in the door. There are lots of things I've learned on my own. I would like to do this to cut out some of the trial and error.
I'm gonna start on it tonight but it will be a while before I'm done with it.

Dreams guide is good but I would like to add screen shots and more specifics as to what xmls change what and what images change what. In the sreenshots I'll draw an arrow or something like that and type the path to where the xml/png or whatever is.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Sounds like a really cool idea.
I for one have read the other guide, but anything visual always helps me to pick up on things. This would be awesome for those of us hoping for a start putting themes together.
I have had some ideas for themes that I think would really only suit me and perhaps 4.78 other people so it's not really something I want to ask themers to dedicate time to (can anyone say Schoolhouse Rocks theme?), when there are so many others with more adoption and demand.
I look forward to the completion.
As someone who has tried to take up trying to make themes and has failed miserably, I approve of this concept...
A detailed theme guide in addition to Dream's would have been great for when I was learning.

It didn't explain how to set it up or how to use it. Just kinda explained what everything was and what was needed.

Na probably not like that lol. Most of the images in the framework pretty much explain themselves. For new themers it may look a little overwhelming. The status bar alone has a few hundred images if you consider all the battery images. things like that I wouldn't need to eplain every single battery % image lol. The right screnshot could show enough to explain almost 1/4 of the images. I can still remember the first time I decompliled an apk and was gonna try xml edits. Wow was I lost and didn't have a clue where to start or what did what. A simple referance like this could have saved me a lot of time and will probably make things much easier for new themers. Who knows maybe myself or some of our current themers will learn something too. Anyways I will get started on this soon
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I think Dreams guide did a good job of explaining xml but maybe could have used a few more examples. What the guide doesn't cover is adding images into a theme through the xml files. His explanation of .9.png's and how to edit them is about as good as I've read anywhere. Also, for those that don't know, theimpaler also has a guide in the general android themes area in the stickies.

Maybe you can start a thread for beta testing. I'm working on an open source touchscreen custom rom installer. Similar to a windows custom install. So u pick what u want installed
Perfect for rom themes and mods
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium
Okay, I have been around the forums and contributed to roms here and there. I am wanting to learn more development. The mods I have made have had there place but I want to build my own rom for both my own personal use, and to share with the community.
That being said, I have a lot to learn. I am looking for a dev who is willing to conspire on a little project I want to do. Help me learn the things I need to know to finish this project I have started. I will not attempt to take full credit for what comes of this. Proper credit will be given to those who assist. Especially being I am lacking a lot of knowledge.
If anyone is interested, please pm me. If not, I'm sure in due time I will figure it out. I would appreciate any help that anyone is willing to provide. Thank you to our great devs for keeping our devices alive for so long! I am hoping to contribute to the longevity of our devices as well!

I didn't think I was going to read a few paragraphs an be able to build a rom. I took 2 years of c++ and Java, I know how much a hassle coding can be.
So many times I'd click compile and it'd throw 3000+ errors from a comma placement.
At least I got a direction. Thanks papa! I love your mighty smurf! It kicks ass
