App Creation for Galaxy Watch 3 and/or Android - Samsung Galaxy Watch 3

As the title suggests I am interested in creating an app for Galaxy Watch 3. My fiance and I bought these watches so we could monitor her blood sugar thru the Dexcom G6. When we used the only available method (nightscout and wearable widgets apps) it does not seem to want to properly work. Now I am new to coding. In fact I am in the beginning stages of game development using C# and Unity. From my understanding Tizen uses C++, or something of the sort. I am basically reaching to out to ask anyone for help, as I believe her, and countless others, could benefit greatly from such a product. All I need is a helping hand, and a finger pointing in the right direction. If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it.

Unity 2017.2 was the last version of Unity that supported Tizen. You might be still be able to use an old version of Unity to compile your own .tpk and sideload it to the watch, but chances are it will be too old to publish to any store as the policies/requirements are updated frequently.
You might be able to create a Tizen project in Unity, then transfer it to Tizen Studio to update it to the latest version to meet the requirements for publication (or fix any bugs.)

[Q] Could anyone point me in the right direction?

I am looking for someone who knows enough about the smart phone apple and/or android development scene to be able to point me in the right direction.
Here is a bit about me and my problem. Unlike the majority of the flood of apps in either market, I actually have a productive and profitable idea to contribute to the mobile application scene. I am 29 and have been doing multimedia graphic design for over 16 years, but I have stayed as far away from code as possible. So, talk about floods, I am sure there are people like me that hammer forums looking to piggyback on people. I am not one of those guys. I am basically looking for a little guidance on where I should go next. I have done a ton of UI work but I have nobody to help me put it together. I want to make sure and go after this the right way. Anyone feel like showing me the way? haha
Thanks!
If you want to try your hand at working apps but are still unwilling to learn to code but have a good handle on common sense, you should check out App Inventor from Googlelabs. You can create apps through the java interface they provide and all the actions are kind of like putting together a puzzle, you just drag and drop the pieces in. It's a bit limited because it's not code oriented, but like I sad if you are looking to stay away from coding, this is likely your best option short of hiring someone else to code for you.

[Q] Hello, I look forward to developing with you.

Hello, I am new to this forum so I suppose I will give a brief bio. I earned an Associates Degree in Computer Science from the Community College of the Air Force while serving on Active Duty as a "Computer Programmer" from 2004 to 2010. Most of my duties on the job involved website development, server side scripting and databases. I started learning network engineering and security in the past 3 or 4 years. I'm familiar with being a go-to for fixing an unrelated FUBAR project from a random language where you have to just google the syntax and methods until you get the results your boss asked for. I've also dabbled in .NET and so on.
Anyway, it is safe to say I know enough to be dangerous or better with everything from legacy assembly code to the trends of today while I have no clear specialty of expertise at this point. I am going to use the Post 9/11 Montgomery GI Bill to go back to college. I should know what I want to do by now but it is a unique opportunity where I may as well do any one thing as another. I like to avoid personal conversations and keep it about the development on forums. I got a nook color 1.01 and came here for some tips on rooting it, now here we are. I am interested to know what particular needs there may be for an intermediate developer that has no strict preference with where I begin just as long as I don't need very expensive new hardware, unless I wanted it anyway.
So, hello and nice to meet you. I look forward to finding a way to contribute.

You can start from building yourself a most powerful i7 (Ubuntu, or whatever your flavor) Linux box your $500 can buy. Generate the tool chain(s) for emulator/TI OMAP36xx SDK. Pull every piece of code published by TI for OMAP 36xx. Study all the free Android/Java/JS development books you can find, subscribe to all Android development forums and to GoogleGroups of the topics and irc channels.
Then, start building the 2.6.32, 2.6.35, 2.6.36 kernels for Android 3.x.
XDA Devs is not exactly the place where the Gurus of Android development explain and do tutelage for newbies, it's the place where they show their results. Read in my blog http://fineoils.blogspot.com about developments for NC and other tablets in condensed form, plus about stuff that is usually of no big interest here. Start from approx. Feb. 2010, this will take some time, lol.
Thank you for the outstanding advice. I have an Ubuntu machine on a first gen Phenom quad core which was starting to collect dust that would be perfect. When I get setup I need to find out what some good starter projects would be. I bet that someone here has a need that has been overlooked because the pros are busy on larger projects and I could take a stab at it. Any ideas?

Welcome! I'm new to Android, so I can't help with anything too deep just yet (used linux exclusively for 7-8 years, so I'm catching on lol), but I can give you a list of a few common issues that people are having that I haven't really seen solved yet.
1. Touchscreen bugs out sometimes, requiring a quick trip to standby and back to fix. Happens to me regardless if I'm OCed or not.
2. System seems to randomly shut off and/or reboot for many. Has happened to me a handful of times, almost always when doing something cpu intensive, like launching Winamp or opening too many DolphinHD tabs.
3. Wifi for many people seems really flaky. Mine works fine 99% of the time.
4. Youtube doesn't like when you log in, requires a cache wipe to relaunch.
5. Screen sensitivity gets weird near the edges. There is an adb method to force a blind recalibration, but seems to have widely varying results.
6. Pull up menus on many apps ends up with white on white text making it unreadable.
I have no idea if any of those are relevant to you or if anyone else is already working on them or not. Hell, some might already be fixed in Froyo or even Eclair. Those are just a few things I see many posts about. I should mention that I'm on 1.0.1 rooted with no other tweaks. I also have a horrid case of strep throat and have been quarantined in my room alone on heavy meds for a few days, so I could be way off or babbling. Anyways, welcome to the forums and sorry for typing so much. I know I'm not nearly the novelist that that blog pimpin dude is. ;P
This is all good information and I appreciate the reply. I hope you get well soon. Strep throat and strep meds are no joke and you are extremely lucid all things considered, so don't worry one bit about that. You are running the same system that I have so please feel free to keep in touch with me about any issues, and I will let you know if I find a fix.
If you have some spare time I'd like to ask you some questions about using Linux for an exclusive PC; I keep juggling it with Windows rather than taking the time to find a fix for common petty problems like running Netflix. Right now my lazy fix for that is virtualboxing Windows.
Thanks again and feel better!

[Q] Looking for Good App Development Books

Good Morning Everyone,
I will have to say I am new to attempting to programming my own apps. I will apologize in advance for not knowing any of the current slang or abbreviations for what is "cool" in the App. tech world.
I am an old-school tabletop gamer/storyteller, while not exactly a "noob", I have been involved in PC and Console games for decades, I do not have much experience with App programming.
I have several ideas that are simple and will definitely do well... if I could get past the basic concept phase.
While not exactly computer illiterate it has been several decades since I have had to do any of my own programming. I recognize a lot of the methods and have little problem picking it up, if I had literature, video lessons, etc. What I need some help finding are good sources to work with.
What publishers currently have the most up-to-date or well thought out hard copy books to pick up to assist in learning app programming (Other than the Dummies Guides)? ISBNs would be a big help in hunting down the books.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to assist a noob programmer out.

Do you want to take your privacy back?

Greetings people of earth and other creatures!
Greedy people are trying sell you phones every year by using complicity of the mobile operation system.
Logic is simple.
Stock Android:
Full of c*rap.
Different kind of messengers, browsers, other useless app, which are installed as system apps and have an unlimited access to your input sensors.
Most of the apps rely on Google for push notifications, which makes a possibility that no matter the security of the messager to read them.
Do I need to tell more?
AOSP Roms:
When you install AOSP firmware on your system your phone won't be the same, in many cases camera or other hardware work differently. Anything could be in those unreadable partitions which selfs-wipes after unlocking.
Project Tomahawk:
The goals are to give people a key to their privacy and to reduce plastic waste by giving old devices a second life.
We gonna go the opposite way and to make Android lighter and simpler, removing all the "debugging" tools and "cloud services" from your phone. Making it work without monopoly services installed. That's just a step one.
Example
Contribution:
Anyone can contribute to the project by donating old devices, doing voluntary work , spread the information in your circles. Students are welcome here. Companies are welcome too, but the project will be in the heands of Community.

Allow me to introduce myself. I see your predicament and completely agree. I grew up with an old saying that one man's rubbish is another man's treasure and I think what you're projecting is a very positive thing.
Personally I've never heard of Tomahawk and I'm interested in finding out more about it but at the moment I'm I'm trying not to multitask you see c
I think your doing great.
Hopefully the following link to one of my all time favorite directors quotes and just views can help guide you on your journey my friend as it has with me.

@2ISAB,
I feel you.
Thank you for the link, friend!
I am from country that you can leave, but it won't leave you. Stays in the head and keep you paranoid.
That's my personal interest in it, to finally be able to speak like back then.
Mission's goal is to help people get their privacy and we need everyone.
Idea is that simplicity is a key to perfection.
I am refurbishing old devices to make them "keep up" with new and "more powerful" devices.
As the result: better speed, better battery life and more privacy.
It can reduce plastic waste I guess.
And some people like older devices because they are awesome and have some sentimental value, but they work slow, as we used to the new "speed".
Maybe send it them who need it more.
Anyone?
I want to bring an easy to use, one button solution for securing a phone and giving people control over privacy.
This project will help to reduce waste by donating refubrished devices as an aid to 3rd-word countries.

Introduction

Hey guys I am from the U.S out of Michigan and I am pretty new to this stuff so I hope I can get accurate knowledge and helpful information on accomplishing everything I would like to accomplish from being a little bit more involved in the community. I like haging multiple rooted android devices to play around with, although I currently just have my primary device atm. I also want to get into the Cybersecurity field, so I am just beginning to learn programming languages, starting out with Python, and have plans for obtaining a MicroBachelor's degree on the subject of Cybersecurity.
