Please see the below carousel image.
In this carousel iPhone developers are showing images from Web Url. We have to do the same but I tried much more on the web and other I didn't get the exact effect and smoothness like iPad Cover flow in android. And even In my cover flow images are not displaying fastly. So please can you suggest any solution regarding the same.
I made a coverflow widget from scratch. It doesn't use any deprecated components. You can find it here:
https://github.com/applm/ma-components
Edit: This implementation of coverflow is broken on newer android versions. I deprecated it. You can take a look at https://github.com/applm/CarouselWidget
Check out the 3D Carousel effects HERE. Carousel Component is very useful when you need to visualize list style data effectively like in the Music player or Gallery application. It provides a sample also.
You can check out the Demo also.

Okay I have gone through several posts and libraries like :-
Create guided tour in an Android app
application guide screens in android
And I have found some good libraries for creating tour guide. Some of the very good libraries I found are :-
TourGuide https://github.com/worker8/TourGuide and
ShowCase https://github.com/Espiandev/ShowcaseView
But the one thing that these differ from my requirements are they can be used over view components like buttons or textviews of the actual view of the application. But what I want to do is use screenshots of the application instead of the actual view components.
So while using these libraries, I cannot point out a particular view component which should be used to show the tour guide.
My question is :- Is there any way I can use these libraries for my requirements? Is there any other methods that I can use to create the tour guide using screen shots?
Thank you.

Since you are using images to construct the app tour, I believe ImageSwitcher would be your solution, in case you would like to develop this module yourself.
Is there any way I can use these libraries for my requirements?
Otherwise you may try AppIntro, a clean and simple to use library that allow your to create the app intro by fragments, images, etc.
And since it is an image, so you may not be able to set a focus over a view components like the libraries you found and mentioned in your question. You would require to edit the image in any image editor such as Adobe Photoshop to add the focus or click effect on the image before you apply it in the AppIntro.
I have been searching for AutoRotating-UserControlled Carousel frm a while.
I came across alot of tutorials and also referred sources frm Github, but found nothing relevant.
The closest relevance was from here
But this tutorial didnt give a smooth auto-rotating and user controlled carousel.
Being a new user I dnt have enough reputation to upload screenshot of the required thing, so pls download and run the source frm the above link and i hope u will understand my doubt .
thanks
pals
I think you can do this by using
1) here is library for rotating menu https://github.com/dmitry-zaitsev/CircleLayout
2) use carousel view and set z depth according to your requirement http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/146145/Android-3D-Carousel
3) follow this creating a Circular view in android
and refer this How to make rotating menu
This question has 2 parts:
1) I'm new to Android development and find implementing the UI on Android quite overwhelming. It would be great help if you could point me to some free UI libraries or give me some advice on how mobile developers go about implementing the UI. Is there some framework of "standard" UI framework which I can use to build simple stuff that aren't directly possible from the Android API? I want to focus more on the content of the app rather than building all the quite common design patterns from scratch.
2) Currently, I'm building an app, which needs to have a gallery. I'm thinking of this
I want to supply a Vector of Photo (which contains URL to the thumbnail and the actual sized image) to this View and get something like that.
Thanks
That app is simply displaying the photos in a gridview. There are many libraries out there but Nostro's Universal Image Loader supports adding images from urls into gridview. Universal Image Loader
You see the icons are in a revolving manner. How to achieve this on Android? Is it through OpenGL or can there be some other easier implementation.. This has been bugging me from months together and I just need a pointer or a breakthrough code. A tutorial would be of awesome help...Please help?
There is a project 3D Carousel, you can get it and Since the screenshot seems to be a customized Home Screen, so you have to provide your own customized Home Screen,
Google released a carousel example with source code as part of the "Designing Android UIs for Phones and Tablets" session at Google I/O 2011. You get the source here. It uses Renderscript to create the 3D effect.
I have search a lot for page flip effect in android. I found some links. An example for flip without using OpenGL.
But I want to implement a 3D real page flip effect for android. same as This Or the effect you have seen in IReader for android.
According to my search OpenGL must be use for this. I also search some framework that provide the alternative of OpenGL. But at the end I found nothing.
So I am just want to start OpenGL for this. But I have never ever use OpenGL.
Can any one help me for page flip? some useful link, tutorials, Starting up for OpenGL in android etc...
