[Q] Android App development - General Topics

Hello everyone, i am wondering how i can make an app that can connect to a website via messages, notifications and basic stuff that only the app offers compared like how the Facebook app works in comparison to the actual website. i have no experience in making an app as complex as this is so im wondering if there is some sort of template or automatic system that can help me build the app but also connect to the blog/forum so Users can access the forum easier from their hand held devices which will bring a lot more of the community in.... Actually i have seen your app for this forum, and i need to make something similar for a forum that im helping out, as i am a member to this forum and came up with the idea of making an app. where do i even start?
it would be even better if some one could develop an app for me, of course you'd be getting all the credit

[Q] A question to any developer willing to answer...

I wasn't sure where anything like this would go, so I made sure to put it in a forum as general as possible.
I'm a beginning web designer, but seeing as I spend most of my free time on this site, I'm growing more of an interest in learning to code for the mobile platform. If anybody is willing to help, all I'm asking for is a few tips from developers here on where to begin.
I learned some very basic java in college, but was wondering if there is a better path to go on. Do I start with BASIC? Do I continue and go towards more advanced Java and stick with only one programming language?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
-Considering I've done almost everything that I can with my rooted EVO, all of you were the people I'd rather hear from. I appreciate all of the hard work that you all have done!
You can develop full market apps using the language I use called basic4android.
Its easy to use but very powerful, produces a native android apk (so no interpreters) and has regular updates.
There are free user contributed libraries that make it even better and it has been used to produce everything from live wallpapers and anti theft apps to games and gps software so is a good option to consider.
I wrote my first app after messing about with it for about an hour and was amazed how easy it makes things. Google basic4android and you will find its homepage for more info. I can't remember the address as it's saved as a bookmark on my pc not phone.
EDIT: did a google search and its at http://www.basic4ppc.com/

[Q] Making android app for Ajax chat - any documentation?

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to make android app for this Ajax chat we have on a certain forum. The chat is MGC Chatbox Evo. Basically, I want to connect an app to the chat, like you do when you fire up a browser.
Now, my programming experience is very out of date, so I'm looking for some documentation (noob friendly if possible) on this. I've searched google all over the place, I found a couple of tips, but those aren't very understandable for someone at my level.
Here are the questions I'd like to cover:
1) In which language do I write this?
2) Using what compiler?
3) Where can I find documentation related to making something like this?
I'm a bit savvy, so if I find a way to do this in one programming language, I'll probably find a way to do it in another, but I can't. I've never made an android app before, but I'm very eager to learn, so all and any help is appreciated. Of course, if someone has time and desire, I'll gladly work with you on this and learn that way. Forum has 600,000 registered users, and you would be free to take all the credits for it.
Thank you for your time
Have a great day!
Bump? :s
Oooh

[Completed] Why does only PushBullet support Whatsapp replies on PC?

Hi everyone,
I am wondering why there is no alternative to push bullet when it comes to answering whatsapp messages on PC. All the apps that support something in that direction, only support SMS.
1. Why the run towards supporting SMS? The only people I know that still use SMS are those dinosaurs who do not have a smartphone. Why is the option to reply to SMS heavily promoted as convenient when 95% of our communication uses messengers that are not supported?
2. Why is no one ranting about all those apps not supporting messengers, why do all journalists only promote those apps as convenient, never criticizing the lack of important features?
3. Is there a technical limitation that prevents other app developers to support replying to messages from messengers like Whatsapp, Disa etc? Why is PushBullet technically able to reply to those messages but no other app?
4. Are there just too few people like me that want such a PC client there just is no demand for a desktop (i.e. Windows) client that supports such a thing?
I would really like to have an alternative to that ridiculously overpriced pushbullet premium service.
Why should I pay such a big fee every month for an app that in theory only needs my wifi as ressource, not any cloud services, traffic from the developers etc, meaning no running costs for the devs?
I would have paid 4€ once for the app because what I would be buying is a finished product that does not produce costs for the developers after that but I'm sure as hell not going to pay money each month just to be allowed to continue using an app.
Sorry for the rant but I would really be interested in your opinions on this topic, especially in technical explanations why there is no such an app besides pushbullet. I'm thinking about writing my own app some day for this purpose since there is just no free solution that suits my demands.

Whatsapp - Profile visitor

Hello, I have been researching a little about an application which notifies the user when someone has visited your profile in whatsapp. I saw that there was an app called "wrevealer" for iphone(cydia) that did just this. My question is, are there any apps that currently do this for Android devices? If not, how hard would it be to make such an application? I know that there would be a huge demand for it, seeing as the majority would really like to see who and how many times someone visits your profile.
It would be appreciated if someone could answer even if such an app does not exist to just tell me if it is possible and how much of a challenge it would be building such an application.
