I'm Using ScoreLoop.
How can I post Scores in a Facebook and twitter using the ScoreLoop SDK?
Once you have downloaded the Scoreloop SDK, you have the option to use the ScoreloopUI or the ScoreloopCore. ScoreloopUI comes with the ready-built UI along with the core APIs (this will be a quick start for developers). ScoreloopCore has the Core APIs which developers can use but here developers have to write their own UI.
Most of the developers use the ScoreloopUI, so, I am assuming you would also be using the ScoreloopUI. In the downloaded Scoreloop SDK package, there is a docs folder, inside that, please open up ScoreloopUI_doc.html and navigate to Integration Guide - Advanced Integration - Posting Scores to Social Networks. There you will find the steps you need to integrate Social network posting into your app.
In case you come across any issues, please post your query on support.scoreloop.com and the support team would help you out.
Thanks,
Prenitha

is it advisable to use a single sdk to integrate facebook, linkedin, twitter to android app or to use conventionally provided libraries by these social media platforms?
if there is a single sdk please recommend a good solution for this !!
otherwise please recommend some good tutorials to seamlessly integrate social media platforms to android!!
I think that you should use the 3 different SDK's for each social network.This should facilitate your work a lot in regards of importing them.
I am trying to download this package to see how to integrate paypal with my app
however, every time i click it, it says the requested site cannot be found, even though i was once able to download this package, but unfortunately deleted it
https://www.x.com/sites/default/files/PayPal_MECL_1.0_Android-Developer-Package_0.zip
how to fix this? i'd like to download this package
I just clicked the link you provided and the PayPal MECL for the Android was downloaded. Are you still having issues with it?
Code samples from X.com are going to all be deleted soon. They're moving to Developer.PayPal.com and github - http://paypal.github.io/
I don't believe the MECL stuff is going to be added - sorry.
Lena, this FAQ may be helpful to you:
Where is the Mobile Express Checkout Library (MECL)?
The Mobile Express Checkout Library for iOS and Android have been
discontinued. We recommend using the new PayPal iOS SDK and Paypal
Android SDK instead. For developers with existing Express Checkout
integrations or who want additional features such as authorization and
capture, we recommend Mobile Express Checkout.

I want connect sales Force from my Android Program please suggest which one is correct way to achieve this I am new to sales Force I have some knowledge in Android Application Developement.
Thanks in Advance.
You definitely want to use the REST API for mobile apps. The SOAP API is really heavy, and is better for Server-to-Server integrations. The best way to get started building an Android app for Salesforce.com is to take a look at the Salesforce Mobile SDK for Android:
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Mobile_SDK
There's a very helpful getting started PDF linked on that page.
However, the SDK is meant mostly for starting new apps, so you'll have some work ahead of you integrating it into an existing application. The main things you want are the oAuth 2.0 User-Agent login and REST wrappers.
You may also find this app useful -- I put it together for a presentation at Dreamforce '11, which was shortly before the Mobile SDK for Android came out, so I wrote the oAuth and REST stuff myself. Might be a simpler starting point for you.

Hope that helps!
You can either use the RESTful interface or the SOAP webservices. The latter is a bit easier to deal with IMHO.
Under setup in salesforce, download the partner or enterprise WSDL (partner = generic, enterprise = specific for your SF-instance). Now with wsdl2java you can create Stubs for those wsdl entries. Import those into your android app and use them. See here for a Java Exampe by Salesforce.com.
Be sure your user has the permission to "do API". You might want to look into SSO if you want to make a "production"/commercial app. Also, to login, remember to use the correct password, you might need to add the API key (generate using the Setup tab in SF). Hope this helps.
Try checking out some of the open-source SDK projects the developer evangelists have added to the forcedotcom github
Lots of good examples on different platforms, including android with phonegap/html5 and a native SDK for android (iOS and Android) to get you past authentication and onto building your app.
Salesforce Provides mobile SDK for development on mobile device, here is the link for android SDK:
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Getting_Started_with_the_Mobile_SDK_for_Android
You need to:
Download SDK.
Add a sample project included in SDK's native/SampleApps folder(make sure you check include to the workspace while importing the project).
Get your remote access form salesforce and update in your app.
--This should get you started with a sample app form salsforce.
After this you need to modify existing code to your own code.
You can go to trailhead and start browsing on it, while working with your own application you will have to learn a lot about smartStore and smartSync,
I did implemented A smartStore App with using salesforce as database provider, if you want i can upload it to drive and share a link to you and
if you have any doubts about using or understanding the flow be free to ask..
I am looking into building an android app, which holds some simple data (probably stored in sqlite). I also have a app engine app which I intend to be an online data store for the information (the app engine app is wrote in python).
The question here is, what is the best way to authenticate a user with the app and how to get the data from the android app to the Google data store?
Thanks
Mike
You could use Google Account authentication and follow this useful post about Authenticating against App Engine from an Android app
You can also give a look at the SampleSyncAdapter sample from the SDK
If you want to authenticate using OAuth, you can do that. The only trick is that you need to launch the flow in an internal WebView, because App Engine's OAuth implementation doesn't allow custom protocols in the redirect. I recommend the Signpost library. If you'd like an example, the 2cloud Android client is licensed under the MIT license (full disclosure, I'm the lead dev for 2cloud). The benefit of this is it allows you to support Android 1.5 and higher. The Accounts API is only supported starting in 2.1.
Another option is the Accounts API. #systempuntoout has good links for that, so I won't reinvent the wheel here.
Finally, it might be worth taking a look at the App Engine-powered Android Eclipse project that was demo'd at I/O this year. It makes keeping code in sync and shared between the two simple. Only downsides are it requires Android 2.2 or higher, and it requires you to write in Java on the App Engine side and GWT for the client side.
I am trying to add a social aspect to my app where one can post there results (a common feature).
I have found some sites that describe how to do this using Facebook Connect http://www.mobisoftinfotech.com/blog/android/845/
and others, like the Facebook developer site point you towards using the SDK and downloading through Github.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/mobile/
Anyone have any experience with this? What is the difference between the two options and which is better for apps?
All the other questions that seem relevant are years old.
I would recommend using the Facebook-Android-SDK for a couple reasons.
It comes from Facebook themseleves. ...Perhaps this is actually a reason not to use it! :)
It uses OAuth for authentication, which is good, and it is pretty easy to use.
The Graph API. It is pretty robust, and also easy to use.
Please note that I have not used FB-Connect before, so I may be a bit biased...
Facebook Connect has been deprecated and you should use the SDK - Integrating Facebook Connect with a Web Page
I have familiary with the facebook-android-sdk I've never had a problem with it and it seems to work very well.
It doesn't really make sense not to use the native SDK unless you are using a webapp imo.
Also I think FBConnect has been deprecated.
