Hi all,
I developed a simple application in eVB to use at my work.
I need some help with File.Control function, I can’t manage to make it work at all.
What I want is to save all data from textbox’s to a text file, and to be able to load that file later into the application.
If someone is willing to help me, thanks in advance!
Before suggesting to search the net, I did, but since I’m a beginner in programming, I can learn better by looking at examples.
Hello first of all very sorry if this has been done to death or if this is the wrong section. I've made a very quick search but didn't come up with anything obvious on where to start.
I've recently finished a Computer art style degree and now that I'm working I'm getting itchy fingers and want to start making arty applications again, this time without having to have a deep theoretical reason... which will be nice!
I have high experience at using Flash and Processing (based on Java). And Ideally would want to use these instead of some hardcore systems such as c# or vb. However Ideally I'd like to use this as a means of building new skills so wouldn't mind diving into C#.
Do any of you have any pointers on where i can start beginners guides? Open source/free software I can use to get me started?
If I was to develop using Flash/Java would I be able to use my phones devices camera/bluetooth/g-sensors?
Thank you for your time, I hope one day I'll be able to add something to this forum!
Hello all so Im new to android I came over from BB I got sick of the worthless OS they keep updating. Im trying to get up to speed everything with android. I got root last night using the unevoked's new process. As Im reading different threads I keep hearing people refer to adb shell. What is this? I also have a PC and a MAC but I'm more of a Mac guy, is most the stuff you need to do better done on PC or can it be done on Mac's because they talk about opening a command line which of course is done in DOS. Can anyone shed light on this for me? Thanks in advance
adb is a part of the Google Android SDK. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html It's available for Mac, PC, or Linux. Really, it boils down to preference. I believe setup is easier for Linux and Macs, but it's still pretty easy for a PC.
You can use Terminal, or whatever. It just needs a command-line interface for you to type into.
Thank you for the link and the explanation. I think its been to long since Ive had a open source device im way behind the curve i guess. Is there a good thread or a site for someone like me to start at that will start at the beginning and explain what SDK is and everything else?
Firstly, for a general how to of what's going on with our device, adb, so on and so forth, this thread is pretty awesome:

For a more in depth explanation of development and the like hit up:
http://developer.android.com
For the vast majority of what you're going to be doing, you need to be pretty familiar with command line scripts and the like. Also, if you want to write applications, you'll need to know java. If you really aren't all that interested in developing and just want to know about adb, that first link is a pretty good crash course.
I want to start making apps. The only programing ive ever done was some visual basic and html back in high school and im not sure i remember much of that. I know that android uses java so my question is should i learn java first and then learn how to use it on android or just start by trying to make simple apps. Im planning on buying a few books so give me a head up if you know something that would help me out.
Thanks for any help in advance.
You should learn java first because if android apps are based from java, you will need to get the right coding information from java. Also android needs some high quality games so if I were you, i would learn java first so I can be able to meet these needs instead of making simple apps. We really need more developers like you who are willing to do this.
Hello, I am a computer science student and i need some help getting into android programming, i know a bit, but frankly it aint much.
I know C++, C#,Visual Basic,(I know C++ the most) and i am currently taking a class on Java, but I want to get into android programming too!(I made a game for android a while back using unity.)
I don't need a tutorial from the ground up.
I know how setup the environment, sdk, run, etc.
I want to learn how to work with layouts and make them look cool,
basic app functionality, work my way to internet connected apps, databases, apps with root, gestures, all that fun stuff.
I am just wondering if anyone would share any info or site that helped them.
I am not that much of a noob to programming but i am to the android sdk and a rookie with java.
if any mentor would step up or something i would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
btw if you're feeling bored check out my game!

Yes, i know its hard, i have a better version, i just haven't compiled and uploaded, i will soon.
I think best Website is always developer.android.com.
It hasn't only the API reference, but also Training section and much more.
Whenever I don't know sth I first visit this.
Regards
According to me you should go step wise step...Watch video tutorials on YT.
You can ping me for help.
Thanks
then go to java website and start learning java. Loads of tutorial stuff is on their website
java.com
then go and download the Android SDK in about 2-3 months when you've completed the above.
