Hi everyone,
At the beginning I do apologize if it's the wrong place to post this thread. I am a "noob", a very very beginner. Can you guys just tell me is it difficult to create an app, which looks like quiz, but there are no wrong or correct answers, but only points for the answer? I'm in need to make an app where the total points will be visible at the bottom and updated (cumulated) in real tim while choosing answers. Also I want to place all questions on one page, which you can scroll (total of 11 questions).
Below is a simple example how I need it to look like.
I will appreciate any help, it's really very very important to me.
I know that I sound like (and I am ) a noob. I know that there are loads of different tutorials, but it will take me ages to understand it and make it on my own.
Hope you guys can help and again sorry if that's a wrong place for this thread.
Kind regards

Hi there,
The project you described should be fairly easy to create, after you've learned the basics of Android Studio. Alot of the graphical work in your project can be done in a WYSIWYG editor. The first step would be to install Android Studio and familiarize yourself with the interface. Pay particular attention to "layouts" and "design view".
Cheers,
Shockfire.
hi nadaall,
If you want to create highscore for your quiz app,learn SharedPrefernces in Android.It will store value and also modify when highscore attain.If you want to show questions in one page,then you can copy random questions into ArrayList and then show it in the page.
I also created quiz application,Try this: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=makeinfo.com.quizapp

here is a new version of Esmertec Jbed (java manager) 20080428.2.1
1- unzip it
2- install the cab
Besides that a little bit description should help ?
@Aqrab
Thanks for that update it worked a treat for me. I managed to fry my Java client somehow and removed it trying to get Sky Mobile working so this is appreciated as I wasn't entirely sure what I should be looking for.
@aragornol
Are you saying that you know what this is and think a bit more information is required for other readers or that you don't know what it does? If the former, how about you add to the conversation? This has been the third post from you I've read today that has been overtly aggressive and is off-putting to people like me who are new around here.
This version has timezone issue (not important for most of the users). It returns current time with GMT timezone instead of current locale.
I am back to 20080328.3.1 for now.
@ericsson68 don`t want to be offtopic ... but to explain ... it is written in rules that DO search before POSTING ... this is rule which I prefer above all ... I read threads about 5 - 8 hours a day and I`m sure I`m not speaking just for myself that it annoys me very much to see 20 threads or so just about crap that was answered sometimes few times but mostly more than that. I`m not the moderator of this forum but I am surprised that they allow that. I am moderator at few forums myself and I would ban the users that do this. I am not an teen which is full of hatred or discriminates other but to be honest it really annoys me when somebody is able to register and post crap while he can search and find answer quicker. I don`t take this bull**** that someone is in hurry and don`t have time to read. Searching take less then registering and posting a question. Besides that in few generations we will have tons of dumb people who can just ask and aks and ask for things that has been answered ... do you get it ? I simply dislike mess in forums, this makes searching HARD for people that REALLY SEARCH.
according to this program no i don`t know what this does and I bet you are shaking to shoot me down with answer to search it myself. yes i can but that`s another story. When I post something it would be polite to attach description to save everybody`s time.
all i want to do is to have clean forum to make either searching or reading easier. but that without help of others - that will simply ignore such - excuse me - noobs or advise them to search is impossible. And at last but not least this is XDA - Developers. Developers in my opinion (as I am one of them) search first and then when they don`t find and answer then and only then ask ... Maybe I can look like aggressive and arogant in your eyes but hey this doesn`t bother me. As far as I know I cam here and read before asking stupid questions I can say I am "clear" and I didn`t bother anybody`s time with even reading my stupid posts or answering my stupid questions ...
and it`s time to stop this cause i`m heavy offtopic. Just take this as my manifest for the future ... I won`t even say a word to this so you can save your time by replying ...
guys dont fight
aragornol if you dont know what this
its a java manager its will replace your old java manager with this new one
with the new one you can run more java apps or game that not work in the old version
Does it allow you to force a resolution for an application? I have the same problem, mentioned in this thread, IE games appear as a rectangle in the top-left corner of the screen.
Furthermore: does this app run the majority of the java which is supported by the built in javamanager?
Another thought: will this in some sort effect my existing built-in (TAO) java virtual machine ? (Kilobyte virtual machine as it is, more about this).
Ok so I've never coded in java before its all new to me and i am trying to make an app that would do the same as this (check it out here) old Motorola razr mod, the led's and screens would flash in a pattern when music was played or any vibration into the microphone. I thought this idea could make a cool app for android, so i have begun coding it, and i have pretty much got the interface setup, but when it comes to making the slider i added actually do anything i have no idea and i have no idea how to make buttons actually preform an action, also i have no idea how to go about controlling hardware on the phone like the microphone and various lights to flash. Is there any way anyone can help or give some tips i appreciate any input. Thus far my layout consist of a spinner to chose the different patterns for the lights to flash, then the start button, then a slider to choose how sensitive the microphone is to incoming vibrations. They do nothing yet cause i am not quite sure where to go from here. If you feel you can contribute any knowledge my way i will be grateful, the only coding i have done is minor html stuff although not much different than the xml code involved i have no idea what to do for the java part. Please Help.
Thank you much!
There really isn't anything one could contribute to your knowledge if you don't have experience with an object oriented language like Java. You will need to hop on Google and look at Java tutorials and possibly some object oriented design books. Once you have a good grasp on Java you can then begin learning the API's for Android that Google provides.
So if you're looking for a suggestion there is mine.
Steps you should take
Learn object oriented programming (OOP)
Learn Java
Learn the Android API
thank you, will do.
Yeah man if all you know is minor html you have a lot to learn since theres almost no relation there. I started to learn some java a couple years ago but lost any time for it but when I was learning the best way I found to learn apart from actually taking a class was AppDev. I had the J2SE and J2ME learning programs. Its as close to being in a class room as you can get. There is an instructor, exercises, tests ect. Basically the Rosetta stone for programing.
Do the Hello, World! demos on the official Android site, and take a look at the APIDemos included in the SDK- there's lots of short code samples demonstrating things like buttons and sliders.
And I disagree with the prior poster- learn Java, then OOP. The explanations of object oriented programming will just confuse you until you have some coding practice.
thank you all for the advice, its nice to see that people care enough to help out a noob around here lol
I was a noob to android awhile ago too, though now I'm finalizing a falling sand game for the market =D.
I had experience in c++, c, and html when I first started looking at android. What helped the most was going throught he examples and copying and pasting code into my code until I could figure out how stuff works. The android developers section on www.android.com helped alot, espcially the guide and refrence tabs. I also did a google code search to find the source of another android project that I could reference off of.
It also helps a lot if you have another person that you can work with, it's a lot harder to get discouraged that way.
One last suggestion, use the android-developers forums from google, there's a lot of really good help there. The stack overflow website is also really helpful if you have a general question about java, but not android in specific.
Good luck!
Will be glad to help you along your way once you start coding it. I can write an example app that does all the flashing bits for you. Would have to make it play off the internal media player though and not external audio. Not sure I could code it to do exactly what they did in the video.
Whatever you do, don't ready the notepad toturial that is way advanced and confusing. I highly recommend the hello views tutorials as well as reading the application fundamentals and all the stuff in that category of the dev guide, I forget what its called. But just reading will only get you so far, just try things one at a time. Also #android-dev on freenode ca be a ton of help if your there at the right time, but sometimes its tottaly dead....
There are a ton of awesume tutorials on android-dev's website reading the code there allways helps me understand how new ideas work. But as mentioned earlyer you really need to know oop programing and java...
Hello.
Im looking to creating a very simple application for a project work we have in school. We started off with four guys in the group, one guy kinda knew how to create apps and do the coding and whatnot but he switched groups last second. So considering we've already handed in the outline for the project which is stating that we're creating an application, we're kinda screwed.
Problem here; we don't know jack **** about creating applications. Our idea is to create the most basic "calendar app" where you open the app, you get the calendar immediately with all the dates. You press a date and when you do that you can write down stuff. Like a logbook pretty much.
So, considering our coding guy decided to leave us I now have to figure out a way to solve this on my own. Now Im just looking for pointers to get me started, consider the fact that I am completely oblivious to everything having to do with coding, and so are my two friends in my group. I understand we might be a lost case but any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.
Send me a PM or reply to this thread, thanks in advance.
I would love to program ti-89 calculator, but unfortunately I have no idea how to do so, could someone write what I am trying to program!? Or teach me how to since the tutorials I have seen don't teach me how to solve my problem cuz what I am trying to programming is sot of complicated.
It consists on having a few formulas for my phisics class, and make the formulas interact with each other in order to find the missing variables. Also, write a function, and make the calculator graph it and find some things like maximums minimums, continuity etc etc.
Hope someone reads this, I will be eternally thankful !
Sorry for my grammar!
Sorry if this does not belong here, I do not know where else to post this.
i suggest u should learn Malbolge programming language first.
Hi, firstly I just wanna say I'm completely new to android studio & coding. I recently began building my first app & feel like my head is gonna explode
I've tried searching online for an answer to my question but couldn't find anything related, so I thought I'd post it here and see if any of you guys could help me out.
So I spent all of last night trying to create a splash screen and login page for my app, which I still haven't completed but thought I'd get ahead of myself and prepare for the next steps and potential issues I could encounter.
I want to create a circle image next to people's names which they can click and change with a different image (not on their phones device but within the app) just a simple image such as the letter from A-Z which are different colours. I have no idea how to do this or if it is even possible? Sorry if I am not explaining myself clearly but any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
