Im not sure if it is the correct place to ask it.
I'm trying to create an app for my campus , which will have a list for places and their markers on map.
I could only succeeded to create a map activity.
I need help for implementing listview, click to go coordinates on map. It will be my first app if i can do it , is it too difficult for starting android ?
I didnt find any info i needed in anywhere it must be caused because i dont know how to describe what i need. So i want you guys to navigate me to resources that may help me. Thanks for your understanding

Hi all,
I'm looking for a very simple program which will read GPS coordinates from my bluetooth GPS receiver and use a GET or FORM request to upload them to a website, i.e.
www.website.com/gps.php?n=000.000&w=000.000
Does such a program exist? I've had a look around here and on Google and can't find anything.
If not, I would be willing to have a go at making it. In this instance, does anyone have any pointers for reading the data from the Com port?
Thanks
Oliy

Thanks for the link, however all the solutions in there are far more complex than what I want, or limited to me making an account on someone else's server.
Is there just a really simple app to do this? Or could anyone provide source code of getting the GPS coordinates, and I could make the rest of the program from there.
Cheers
Oliy: it's a little more involved then just reading the com port. What kind of experience do you have? You have to do quite a bit of token and string parsing. Have a read of the GPS protocols:

Hi Vijay,
Thanks for the link. String and token parsing is fine. I have plenty of experience in core operations of programming languages, it's when you get into hardware specific things that I have very little experience.
I don't have a whole lot of time to program at the moment, I start my internship on monday and I have work on my own little OmapScaler project building up as well, but I've found a guy on this forum who seems to have the same ideas as me, I've PMd him and will hopefully get a reply soon.

can someone help to point me into the right direction for a program that i have been trying to plan..
im trying to log into a website, and have found plenty of information to do it, but it seems that once i log into it, i dont get any confirmation.
the second task i want to do is to be able to log into the different aspects of it (search for people) etc, but i dont know what the correct way to do this would be.
my basic idea is to log into a website, and then to find people in my area, and populate them to a list. the second part to that task would be to use the gps or coarse location feature to find out how far we are from each other.
Im not looking for the solution, but more of a point into the right direction for these things. i have googled my heart out but have come up with nothing that is helpful or really point me in the right direction. maybe im just using the wrong keywords?

anybody? im just looking for a right push.
Hello,
I wanted to know if anyone had an idea to implement this function because I'm looking since yesterday and I have not found much, just:
developer.android.com/reference/android/location/Address.html
developer.android.com/reference/android/location/Geocoder.html
developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredPostal.html
But I am not more advanced and my question remains: I'd like to know: how to know the road on which we are?
For example, I want my application to tell me: you're on the street...xxx or highway...xxx
Like on the free application " compass " that makes it !
Thanks in advance for your answers!
And escuse me for my english, i'm french.
Well the links you have provided are the right ones except the last one. I'm not sure for what you'd need the contacts for that.
Now in principle you obtain a Location object from your LocationManager. Get the latitude and longitude from that Location object and pass those values to the GeoCoders getFromLocation() method.
You will get a List of Address objects from which you can get all the information you need.
Here is an example:

Hello fellow Android lovers,
i am noob coder who just started to do some android programming. Right now I have my small app running but have some problems adding weather infos. What i want to do is just ask for the weather condition and based on the condition i want to change the source of my ImageView object. Besides i want to display the temperature and location.
Unfortunatly i could not help my self and find a solution. Maybe one of you guy can show a little example code. The stuff on the net are always too complicated :S
thanks in advance

any suggestion to create a simple app that let you visualize a google maps map personalizated and maybe can't let you change page, but let you navigate that specific map and stop. i created a personal map to try it, have an url and i want to stay fixed in the only view of the app. i'm a noob so if you want to help me... i would create that simple app for android and ios. thanks and sorry for my bad english
