Going to begin Android development, need advice

I have an idea for android that could potentially make me millions. However I currently have no experience in coding anything besides basic html templates. Would reading android development for dummies be a good place to start? How complicated is android development?

Picking up a Java Programming for Dummies would also be a good start. The Android Dev site has some good resources aswell, check it out.

I have no knowledge of coding java or android based programs. The official Android development site is kind of complicated. For someone like me I need very clear walkthroughs of the basics until I get the hang of things. Can anyone give me advice or lead me to the right place?

I started off using Greenfoot back when I was a wee little lad. It's probably the most simple way to get into Java and Java concepts.

There is an program currently in beta called App Inventor for people that have Little to no experience with coding. You might want to look into that.

Is that an application, or a better book than the dummies one?

[Q] XDA Forum App Source?

I was wondering who I would have to contact to get the source code to the XDA Forum app. I'm looking to develop an app for the MMO "Star Trek Online" for accessing the game forums, but since the forum setup is nearly identical to the XDA forums, it would be a lot easier to use the XDA App as a starting point and build on that as it seems to work very well and is extremely stable.
My plan is to use the XDA Forum App to create the STO App, but also add to it. The In-Game chat uses XMPP, and the in-game mail and forum PMs are the same system, so if I add a XMPP Client, that would allow STO players to use the in-game chat, mail, and browse the web forums all from one app on their android phones.
So, if you know the person/people who developed the XDA Forum app, can you point them in my direction or point me in their direction?

it's based on Tapatalk.
So either Tapatalk sponsors xdadevelopers or xda pays some license fees to offer the app for free.
Visit the tapatalk homepage to learn more about this app and how to enable support in your forum, which is free.
However, you won't get the app for free.

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.

Developing Mac or iOS Apps

I know Apple needs developers to be a part of the iOS Developer Program or Mac Developer Program to acquire several solutions and am interested in knowing how to start.
What tools are needed for making my first app with Xcode and how would I start to become a developer using Apple's tools?

I have knowledge using C and C++ and its basic functions.

I meant to say c++, but pretty much. Just google it. It's not that hard wants you get the hang of it. That's what I'm going to school for.

Googling it would be the best option! Opinions can be misleading. I have a certification in ios developer program from Cestar College Toronto but still many doubts regarding this pops up in my mind and Google is where I go to all the time!

Yeah iOS is a pain in the butt to learn. But Google is your friend.

[APP][SHARE] DSploit [ROOT]

Hello XDA developers i liked to share this awesome app
Mod edit - For educational purposes only
And much more things i dont know!!:
You cam get it FREE on google play store fromHERE
THIS APP NEED ROOT!!!!
Dont forget to hit thanks button if you like it!!

So, griefing people on your wi-fi network? This is just a tad rude, and undoubtedly against XDA rules. It's not even Xperia Z related.

Don't know if it works but this isn't a hacker forum, it's a developer forum. So why to share apps like this? Doesn't make sense for me.

U may get warned for posting in wrong section
And those who think that this app is used for hacking then you are wrong
This app is for educational purpose and used for penetration testing.
Ps. It can be viewed as hacking app too
No offence

Ok, as mentioned the app is originally for security analysis and penetration testing of networks. What you do with it is your own buisness but do not promote illegal activities on XDA. The app itself is not bad and the original thread can be found HERE. Suggesting users to sniff passwords ect shouldn't be suggested. I've cleaned up the OP and closed the thread.
