[Q] How to Use SDK? - Samsung Galaxy Mini

I am just a n00b and idk anything about programming except some C++ stuffs
So i installed android SDK on Windows(SP2) and was planning to make some Apps like personalised android launcher for my mini..but after installing the .exe I just sat around like dumb..i just dont know what to do...
So here are my qwestions
1) How to connect my phone to SDK (GT-S5570 Cyanogen music edition by Crazy K_P and android version 2.3.4)
2) how to develop some random small apps as just for getting started
3) i found out an youtube video on how to make Android Launchers but nothing was mentioned on how to run SDK and stuffs
Am posting the video link soon
Hoping to get help from all of you guys here

you first need to download the android, open sdk manager n select wich android you want to download, when it finished open avd manager n create new virtual devices, n there you go, start it and you got virtual devices running..
btw sdk is for testing your apps, not creating. CMIIW

Yes, after downloading SDK you have to open the SDK Manager and select the stuffs you need to download like which Platform (Android 2.2/2.3/4.0 etc. ), code samples, documentations etc. Select only the required stuffs like any Android platform or its gonna be a hell lot of time required to wait to finish downloading.
After that you have to connect the SDK with Eclipse using ADT plugin. There are many Youtube videos regarding this, so it won't be a problem.
PS: Before you start with all these stuffs, its always good to have look on several ebooks on Android development, as you're a fresher.

umm thanks to u guys now i am kinda connected..do you guys know how to make apps wid it ?

For that you need to start from beginning like creating New Project and coding the stuffs, deploying in an Emulator or you can test run the app in your own phone by installing the apk file. As I previously mentioned start by referring some tutorials, and get in touch with what you are doing.

convert android app to the G1?

what steps do you need to take to change a android app to the G1?
What exactly do you mean? Android is the OS and the G1 is the hardware.
did he mean "install" instead of "convert"?
i have a app that a German company made for the android os , early in the year before the G1 came out and i cant just install it like an app i have to change something, I'd like to know what that is?
The app was probably made using an outdated and unsupported version of the Android SDK. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is wait until the developers update it (unless you have the source and are willing to manually review it)
i could post the APK

The thing is, the source code can't be extracted from an .apk file. It's like taking an .exe on windows and then trying to edit the source code of the program itself. So unless the developer updates the program or provides the source, you're SOL.
Sorry.
have you enabled the G1 to install applications that are not from the market?
Settings> applications > unknown sources?
of course, this will allow you to install it, but if it's out of date and the programming needs updating, you're still SOL.

Android Emulator

Is there a way to 'emulate' Android on a PC? The reason I ask, is that there are so many interesting looking ROM's on xda, that I would like to try out before I flash on my phone.
Is this at all possible, and if so, how?
Thanks
download the SDK. There's one in there.
although there IS an emulator included with the android SDK, it's not like you can just load up a "update.zip" equivalent off this site and expect to "flash" it in the emulator... its got a vanilla version of each major release of android that it can load, its for devving and debugging android programs, not as useful as you'd think, slow too.

[Q] Market thinks my Hero is not compatible with apps

I installed CM 7.0.3 last Friday, I'm beginning to see more and more apps that say "installed" (from earlier) but trying to re-push them to my phone they now grey out my HTC Hero on Sprint saying the device isn't compatible.
I have the feeling this is an issue of the market assuming my HTC is stock and the newest builds of the apps are not compatible. Is there a way to indicate I'm using Android 2.3.3 so I can have Google Maps back?
I was able to get my Google Music beta as a .apk from someone and it installed fine manually and works great but was another just as above that wouldn't work through the market.
Hey I am having the same problem with the market not recognizing my hero. I am actually just looking for the google music beta app, =P so if you had a link I would appreciate that vmuch.
Look here

Might be what's effecting you. ""Might""

There is a copy of the music.apk but I believe you need to have the invite from Google Music Beta first before it will work. I had mine, loaded on PC went to my phone and was as I described above. Got the file from someone and loaded logged in and it works perfectly.
Thank you, I will try the links above
I would say that yes, that is affecting me, but I can't be the only one with a handset that wasn't designed to be running Gingerbread but is obviously compatible.
With all of the ROM community support of aging devices seems there must be a work around for this that is going to start to become a larger problem.
Making sure I make backups of my apps from now on seperately from my CWM recovery backups.
To get Google Music from the market, you have to edit your build.prop file. The instructions are in another thread. A simple search will find it.

change your buid.prop to say device is a "DROIDX", & youll have access to even more apps, & the google music app is in the cdma hero section for download, use the search
just cnanging the banner to droid x wont do it the apps that arnt available for are made for hdpi devices and tablets so when u try and instsall them itll say parse error
In your build.prop located in /system change your ro.opengles.version value from 65536 to 131072. So your end product looks like this: ro.opengles.version=131072
Can you edit that file with an app, or do you need to use adb? I tried using es file explorer but no dice, it's probably in use by the system eh?
Edit: forgot to enable root permissions for it...derp.

[REQ]WP 8.1 resources needed

Hi guys, I am active as themer for Android phones and fully aware of the necessary technics (decompiling Android apk-s, changing resources etc). I have no clue whether the files system of WP 8.1 is fully accessible and I could have access to several resources used in the WP 8.1. I would need all pictures from the notification center in order to use it for theming purposes.
Since the latest generation of Android phones uses xxxhdpi resources I would need the files at least in 192X192 resolution.
Is this even possible? Could somebody help me? Thanks in advance.

How do i put my custom app onto my phone.

Hey guys I am doing some testing with my app that i have created and I want to put it on my phone so i can test it on the move.
How can this be done?
Also can someone run through how I release the app from Android Studio to my Desktop?
Thanks guys.
I am no expert in this field but I found these 2 links which could guide you in the right direction-
http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Testing_Android_Studio_Apps_on_a_Physical_Android_Device
https://developer.android.com/studio/run/device.html
And I think there's also an option to generate the apk for a given project.Google will help you.sorry I cannot be of much help

Both of your above question somewhat work together. You can install the app to your phone by enabling the developer option in the phone's settings and debugging mode, then plug the phone on to the PC/Mac and then click "run" in Android studio and you should see your phone name in the ADB window.
To export the app to your desktop; In android Studio go to Build> Build APK - I hope that helps
