Hey everyone,
New developer & member here. I've been programming for about a year now, so I'm not completely novice, but when it comes to Java and Android ..I'm a rookie. What I'm working on now is bringing an app to a secure share site I created, SecurSend. Essentially what this is meant for is sharing private information without any prying eyes, SSL connection, on-screen keyboard to deter keyloggers, RAT blackout features, etc. What I'm having the most trouble with converting this to an android app, is I just don't have a good understanding of the environment, or Java language.
So what I need here is a text box, and button. When pressing the button, whatever was inputted in the text box, should be uploaded to my already established server, and create a unique link to send to the recipient. Once the link is clicked, it is completely destroyed from the server.
Does anyone have any recommendations on resources that could benefit me in learning how to effectively perform this action? If anyone here is interested in the project, I wouldn't mind having some experienced developers on the project as well! SecurSend's web-app is currently down, but I can provide a local copy if you'd like to play around with it.
Thanks for any help in advance, everyone!

I'm not sure exactly what you might be asking =)
Are you interested in learning how to establish a connection to a server and perform an HTTP POST operation? (Checkout DefaultHttpClient)
Are you interested in how to create the textbox and button? (Check out TextView and Button in the Android API docs)
Are you interested in popping up Android's "Share via" dialog? (Checkout Intent.createChooser())
Sorry, I can't post links =/

Hi
I am using my Kaiser for business use and want to get rid of the dreaded paperwork and use my device for everything.
I visit various clients to carry out inspections. I am wondering if there is someway of having a program made to insert various information instead of loading the Inspection everytime in Word and saving it each time as this can be really slow and a real pain.
What programs are needed to make a working program to work on Windows Mobile? Does this sound like a do - able task or am I better of doing what I do now?
I do have a copy of the inspection sheet i use which is too large to upload here.
Hope someone can help.
Thanks In Advance.

Do you mean you have a word file or similar, and you want a program to populate it, to eliminate tedious scrolling and whatnot? It can be done. As far as doing it yourself, there are several routes/languages/IDE's to choose from, but the learning curve on programming is a little slow to justify just one program. If you've programmed before, I can help set you in the right direction. If you want to learn programming, I'd start on the computer, then move to the PPC once you've learned to program with libraries and DLL's.
However, if you want to email me the form, I'll see what I can do fo you. I won't charge, but any donation would be appreciated upon delivery.
Drop me a line with your email address and I will forward you a copy of the file I use for the inspection.

Greetings all,
I'll cut right to the chase. I'm looking for a enthusiastic developer to help me develop an application for a 'iPhone' style app store.
I have some rough ideas on how to go about this, but im not completely in touch with the development of Windows Mobile Based applications.
The application will essentially connect to a hosted website of mine containing free / opensource / demo WM6 applications with the option to download and install to your phone.
I've thought of using a RSS style backbone for the application as i think it would be the easiest way to go about receiving updates from the website with links to .cab 's for download.
I'm aiming for this to be a free hosting service for aspiring developers to get their applications out there and easily accessable for others on their WM6 devices
The only thing i can really offer in return is credit on my application hosting page for the client software, and a agreed percentage of any revenue i may or may not receive in the future.
I am aware of the proposed one by MS but they are asking $99 for devs to post their applications on there, i would like for this to be a free alternative for poor devs.
Sorry for the long post, and any thoughts regarding this will be greatly appreciated! If anyone is further interested, provide your email and i can write up a more detailed explaination with diagrams.
**Edit: I've got a professional web developer who is a friend of mine on the Site side of things
I'll be keen to help out on the Web Side of things. Looks like M$ Apps is gonna be a failure.
Email me: 89jase<at>gmail<dot>com
Hope a few people get on board, sounds like a great idea!
Thanks Jase!
I thought no one here wanted to help. I'll be in touch with some further details.
Though i still need a someone to point me in the right direction with the client side of it. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Stop developing such things, that already exists...
scilor,
Not that im trying to be rude when i say this, but why?
It's something i want to do, you havn't inputed contructively so why bother at all?
Futhermore, i do not know of a solution such as this currently developed. So if this is the case, perhaps you could link me to it? That would be helpful.
Hi everyone!
I am a complete noob android programmer and therefore please refrain from assuming I know things which I won't
I am looking to make an app that will interface with a website. The reason I am doing this is because the website is built for desktops so something with a larger screen, and with no chance of a mobile friendly version coming out any time soon I decided to start my own project.
I have started work on the login screen but I got as fare as making a UI and stopped, it looks nice but does nothing! I don't know where to go from here! I have: Username and Password text boxes. A Remember me check box and a Login button. How can I make it plug these values into a webpage and if the remember me box is checked, store them to a string within the application?
Of course this is only the start of my project so will need more help a long the way so keep your eyes peeled as I will be needing some help!
Thanks in advance,
Jake
Hello! overflowers? I'm a beginner android developer and I have developed several apps that use the "basics" of android and java (for college requirements)
Now, I need to develop a new project that consists of making a web app which stores the records of all students from my college and the students will be able to check their records and other information from the college from their android phones.
I have done a lot of stuff with Android but I haven't done anything incluiding web queries, pulling info from a website to display into the device, etc etc.
So I want some advice here and/or tutorials that focus on this.
also, I have some important questions: 1. Can I pull information from the actual website from my college? If so, do I need to recieve some sort of permissions?
2. In case of not being able to pull information from the actual website from my college (for any reason whatsoever, like them not giving me permissions to do this), I could create a website that imitates its behavior, I would appreciate some tutorial or guide which could help me to achieve this.
Your help is very appreciated.
Btw, excuse if I'm breaking a rule here but something is not making sense to me.. the forum title says Q&A but when I mark this as a question it says this is not Q&A. I am aware this might be moved somewhere else but I dont know where.

I would look into hosting an sqlite3 database on a server, and access it to retrieve the data from within your app.
But the problem is, by default you cannot access an online database on Android, so you'll need to add some kind of RESTful interface, the easiest way probably being a php script which will retrieve the data from the database and return it into a JSON object for example, that you can then pull from within your app.
You'll need to expose some kind of syntax from your php script so that your app can request the data for a specific user (ie row X / column Y).
There's probably a better approach, but this is what comes to my mind.
I want to use the screen of android phone/tablet as a remote input device.
I want to get the position of the finger(s) and send that using udp socket to a pc/laptop.
Later I'd also like to add more input possibilities and add the option to send data (text/images) to the phone and displaying that.
I've already created a simple server that receives messages in C++ but my knowledge about java/android development revolves around the hello world program, so I'd need a lot of tips and pointers for this one.
Anyone knows about a good(detailed) tutorial about this?
Perhaps try reposting this in C++ forum? I don't know much about it and I'm sure other may be the same way, especially since we're in the Java section. Although i really like this idea!
