I don't think anyone here is using the processing API for development ... nd i case you were actually asking 'how' to develop ... perhaps you could have a look at this and this :fingers-crossed:
Installation Notes - Installing the Android SDK and trouble shooting problems
Running a Sketch in the Emulator
Running a Sketch on an Android Device
Your First Game - MACUL 2012 Workshop
General Introduction to Processing - Covers a bunch of the basics
Exporting your Apps - Still a work in progress. Hopefully the next version of Processing will make this easy.

Hello experts,
I would like to start developing android apps to push to the android market to make some cash. Could anyone who has experience in doing so recommend some material / books that I could start off with to learn android application development?
Thank in advance.

I'm also interested. But I think you also have to specify at what level you program already. What languages your program in or if you're a complete beginner, like moi hehe, in order to get adequate recommendations
i just walked into a book store and picked up idiots guide to android, idiots guide to java, and a cup of coffee.... form what i can see, alot of app developement happens in java (or the tutorials i've seen are by people who prefer java) so I just figure i start this way... also, elicpse looks like it could do many diffrent languages so as long as your version does the language you know (should you already know one) you should be golden...
Great! Thanks for the feedback guys!
My top book is Commonsware's The Busy Coder’s Guide to Android Development

Hi all,
I am interested in having a dabble in developing some simple pieces of software for Android phones, mainly for myself, but who knows?!
I have some experience in VB6 writing software so I was hoping to be able to get started quite easily... That seems not to be the case!
I have got stuck at what seems to be the first hurdle. I have installed the SDK Manager and it has downloaded, amongst other things, what I thought was the design package, but I have gone through the folders it has created and cannot find anything really. I was expecting some kind of development software to build the app but I must be missing something!
Are there any good, basic and simple tutorials on how to get setup? I'm sure once I get started i'll be OK!
I run Windows XP and will be developing mainly apps to be used on my Desire HD although would prefer it anything I did was compatible with other Andriod phones.
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like you don't have an IDE. Most android developers use Eclipse. Start here:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
Then follow the quick start guide here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Spot on Gene, hadnt installed Eclipse, got it running now, followed a Hello World demo on Youtube and managed to get it to work on the emulator, im getting there!
Couple of questions more if I may?
- Is there not a design view, ie, object view so that I can place bits where I want them (buttons, text, etc...) I cant find wher eto chagne from design view to code view? Does that exist?
- How do I 'package' my newly designed app and send it to my phone to test it?
Many thanks again
I am new as well I was wondering what youtube video you were watching?
It was this one, this worked for me
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COEhiTT1KLk&list=ULc2oQVGNKilQ&playnext=2
I've also been looking at starting some Android dev, having done some Windows Mobile dev with C#.
I've read the installing the SDK guide and it says that the ADT plugin doesn't work with Eclipse 3.6 and you have to use Eclipse 3.5, is this still the case or can I use 3.6?

First you will need to learn Java. This is a great book for that purpose: http://www.headfirstlabs.com/books/hfjava/
I learned Java with it myself. It is good for beginners and in no way reading it is boring!

There's a good series of 200 video tutorials for beginners made by thenewboston, it's quite good and it will show you how to build a dozen different applications with different purposes (i.e a stopwatch, an internet browser etc...). It will give you the basics of the Android APIs & the xml part of the job along the way.
Plus they're short videos so you can watch one when you have a few minutes anytime.
Here's the playlist with the 200 videos : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j4prh3NAZE&playnext=1&list=PL33384E9848C4F55E&feature=results_main
I've looked through several books for beginners, and I think "Hello, Android" by Ed Burnette is the easiest to start with.
Hi,
I'm new in Android environment, but I have some experience with Java programming. I want to try some mobile apps, so i started to writing my first game. Everything is ok, but I don't know how to create mechanism like in "maze" Android unlock screen (can't put any link with photo ). I have list of points on screen and I want to give user ability to draw a path between these points. I've heard that there is special listener for this, but I can't find that.
Thanks for your help and sorry for my English

Don't know it at the top of my head either, but checkout the source of this lockpattern library, I'm sure you can find out how they did it
Morning all,
I have never created an app, but decided to look into it late last year. I began work on an app around September 2014, did a little work every weekend, and haven't really touched anything since November.
I have experience with HTML, CSS etc (I can write them). I can also have a basic understanding of other codes such as PHP, JavaScript, Java, C etc - basically, enough that I could take some code and edit it to suite.
I was hoping that creating an app would a) help grow my current business and b) give me a new challenge to learn new code.
Anyway, I'm really stuck on what to do. I downloaded Eclipse at home, but my laptop is on it's last legs. I have been creating the app at the office, using Adobe Flash Builder 4.7. I read a few tutorials, and downloaded some sample apps to learn from (as part of some of the tutorials). However, none of them have what I want.
My App Idea
So, enough waffling on, I'll try and explain my app without giving away what I want to do.
Basically, the app will be one where users can enter an error code, and press search. The result would be a page showing the description of the error code, and then what the solution is to fix it. There is then potential to add a "buy this part from" link which will suggest suppliers to visit.
So, as an example, let's say a user got a Blue Screen error code on their PC of "ABC1234". They would enter that code into my app, and the result would say something like:
Code: ABC1234
Description: RAM Error - overheating
Fix/Solution: Replace RAM
What I Have So Far
Other than a couple of test files that I've been learning with, I don't have anything solid in terms of an app. What I do have though is an Excel file with 889 error codes and what each code means.
What I Need
So, I guess what I need is either:
some help/guidance on how to create an app that in it's simplest form is a home page with a search box, and then 889 pages in the background that return depending on the searched error code.
or, someone willing to help me develop such an app
Firstly, download Android Studio - Don't use eclipse anymore
Secondly, here is a tut on using an older version of Android Studio
Have a go, see how you end up. Let us know, if you're really needing help, ask here again
Thanks,
I'll have to try that once I get home as the IT Administrator at work has to vet everything that gets installed.

Thanks sir but do we have a highly compressed Android Studio? 800mb+ is such a big file to download.
Like minooch said, install an IDE, understand how it works and then try some tuts on Internet to learn how Android works. What you want to do isn't really hard, you'll manage quickly to do it but you will be prouder if you do all by yourself.
Some hints : Don't go coding directly, try to organize your project (data structure, classes, methods) before starting to code. On a small project, it's not as important but if you start doing things well now, you'll thank yourself in the future

Hello.. You just cannot make a app like for such kind of work. You have to make make a website server for the same and then make a app for it. I know a technique for such kinda work.Web crawling us your answer. If you could setup a website for that then I can make a app for that easily within two days. Inbox for any further information or quote back
**********Hit thanks if I helped you***********

You need the JDK. Please read the instructions on the download page. Under the section 'Requirements'
