what does sdk integration mean in android. I searched much about sdk integration but didn't find a easy answer to understand it well.
At first we need to know What is SDK? SDK is a software development kit. There are lots of SDK like Google Map SDK, Facebook SDK, Twitter SDK etc. Now if you want to make a android application which would be able to share something in facebook or twitter, then you must need facebook or twitter SDK for your app . This kind of uses of some other sdk in your app is called Facebook SDK or Twitter SDK Integration with android . For other hand if
you want to make a ios app which would be able to use google map then you need to integrate Google Map SDK with your ios app. This is called SDK integration....That's it. Thank You

I am integrating Facebook android SDK 3.6 on my cocos2d-x-2.1.4 app.
According to the docs here.
I need to create a FragmentActivity to initializes the Facebook SDK.But I don't know how to write it in cocos2d-x, because the activity in cocos2d-x is so different.
Could anyone help me? How can I initializes facebook SDK and login easily?
I have an existing Android app which I am trying to advertise via Facebook ads. Facebook said I must integrate their library into my app, starting with downloading their SDK.
When I downloaded their SDK from here: http://developers.facebook.com/android/ there was no .jar files in it but examples of apps using their classes.
I think for my purposes I just need to make a call to Facebook when my app starts up, right? Because I don't want any Facebook functionality. I just want to be able to intgrate enough to b able to advertise in their system.
Could anyone please help me understand what I need to do?
Should I just copy all the classes in their Facebook/com/src folder into my own project? And if so, where do I add the access key and secret key for my Facebook app into my Android app?
Thanks!

The Facebook SDK is not a simple jar file, but is instead an Android Library. If you're using eclipse, you need to import the SDK into your workspace, and add it as a library to your project.
See the google docs on how to add a library http://developer.android.com/tools/projects/projects-eclipse.html
And also the Facebook SDK Getting Started guide https://developers.facebook.com/docs/getting-started/facebook-sdk-for-android/3.0/
I am developing a mobile social TV application on Android.I want to integrate Facebook with my application so that I can:

You may use this.
Facebook Android SDK
But carefull about handling activity result. If you test integration in simulator you haven't installed facebook app. and sdk will show you a dialog with webview. But on a real phone if facebook app. is installed, authorization will go via app.
you need to install an extension, similar to the core Android SDK, but no, here is what you need to do:
1.) go to https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk
2.) download the facebook directory ONLY! The other directories are only examples.
3.) Put the files from the src (you can copy the drawables too, if you want to) in the package, you are currently working with
4.) You are good to go, you can use the facebook "SDK"
see also these examples https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk/tree/master/samples , it is working example provided by facebook
I am doing an application that requires the Facebook and Foursquare Login.For that I am using android SDk for Facebook
IS there any SDK for foursquare in android like we have facebook SDK for android.
Have a look at These OpenSource Projects and FourSquare API.
Check out the Foursquare api page. They are having an API which you can use.
here: http://developer.foursquare.com/
At the moment there are no official Android SDKs from Foursquare.
You can take a look at this open source project https://github.com/condesales/easyFoursquare4Android. It uses oauth2 with a webview on android to capture user token. There are some requests tasks already implemented like searchVenues and checkins.
How can we get Facebook APIs for Android?
I would suggest using the following SDK put together as an open source project. You will need to get a facebook api key directly from facebook.
https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk
If you plan on working with Facebook and other APIs in your Android app, you might consider the Temboo SDK which provides normalized access to Facebook and many other APIs. The Android SDK is an open download (https://www.temboo.com/download) although you'll need a (free) Temboo account to do anything with it.
(Full disclosure: I work at Temboo)
