[Q] Need help creating an app.

Hey everyone, I'm new to XDA forums. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me I want to create an android app for a forum site. It would be similar to the app for this site. I know basics but this I think is out of my league. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks alot.

The simple (and easier) way to go about it is to create an app that has one activity with a webview in it that points to your forum site(mobile view).
That way you can have a downloadable app with a nice icon and everything but you don't have to reinvent the wheel of your forum in java.

like a link app easy to make in appinventor

[Q] Help With Android Software Development

Hello.
i want to start a development project for bus alert.
the idea is quite simple.
any how,i need some help with coding as there are some things i don't have the experience in.
do you have some manual on how to get the device location using the GPS, how to use information from known web pages on the internet?
thank you!

I don't remember any online resources about it, but http://lmgtfy.com/?q=android+get+gps+data. If you can't find anything you have to buy one of the books about Android programming (I learnt from Hello Android)

how to build an app

ok devs or people who know how to build apps.
i would like to become a dev by building apps but iv searched google and xda and i cant find the right answers so i wandered if anybody knows how to build an app for our x8.
if you could give me maybe a step step tutorial on how to build them? sorry if im asking to much but im keen
cheers.

That kind of thread would be pointless cuz there are many types of app eg. Pulse with a clock widget have an entirely different code. Some apps do some things, other apps do other things. It's impossible to have a general or global tutorial of how to make an app.

I've learnt java from tutorials on YouTube and with the right means (Eclipse, SDK and some other stuff) I was able to do it.

Easy way out:
Google App Inventor
AppsGeyser
AndroMo
Conduit Mobile
wix.com ( creates mobile sites)
I know more, but can't think of them.
And I guess you probably want the coding tutorial but I don't know either so.....
Leave a thanks if I helped!

My first advice would be look into Android L Design
secondly not exactly understanding what you mean by you want the app to act as a wedding info plus an invitation for your sisters wedding. mind elaborating a bit more?
Like are you trying to invite people from the app?
Or are you sending the app to people?
As for info on the app I am assuming your trying to make the app like an invitation I think? Not exactly sure what your asking so clear the question up a bit and ill try to help ya out.

Hi...sorry for late reply .I will send the app to people.The app will give all info regarding bride and groom.. venue..some background music.and should contain the facility as the app user can send text msg to couple and can send his wishes using pic which can be clicked by camera.and when he press the submit button the msg should deliver to google drive or something.I am not familiar here..can you please guide me???

(Q) Building automated script for Android game

Hello there,
First I will apologize if I'm in the wrong thread, but from what I read that's the place to ask the question I have
To get to the pint:
I would like to write a script for an android game, which will execute certain actions in the game. I'm talking about a strategy game so the script will make attacks in a loot, thus saving enormous amounts of time if I do it by hand.
I've seen a script like that but I can't get my hands on it, so I've decided to look into writing my own.
Here comes the fun part: I'm a total noob in writing any codes , but I'm a fast learner.
So far I've realized that because the game runs on servers, I'll need to open the source code of the game to extract the commands that the game is using for each action. Than compile a script that will execute that same action (sending it to the server) from my behalf (using my account information) and than put this action into a loop for as many times I would like to (think that would be the easiest part compared to everything else)
I would really appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction as far as what to read and what to use to do all of that.
Thank you Much in advance!

Does anyone have an idea if it's possible to monitor an application in live time to see the code that is being executed when you perform certain actions?!
For example you press a button in the app and on the computer you are able to see exactly the command executed?

Does anyone have at least a slightest idea how to do that? Or any general directions?
Thank you

Thank you for the reply!
I'm trying to put a script together that will do automated number of hits for me on certain set target. It is a strategy game (not sure if I'm allowed to post the name of the game)
So pretty much it will need to be able to set number of troops, type and how many times to hit the target. Using that info and my user name it will emulate that I'm hitting manually from the game, but it will be much faster because there is no human lag, directly talking to the server of sorts.

Would you mind to elaborate what is OOP.
I'm pretty noob in scripting

OOP means Object-Orientated Programming.

if you want to see what code is being executed etc, maybe you mean debugging?
if so you can use logcat, eclipse or android studio
Here's the link for the debugging guide : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2325164
