Can someone explain to me the concept behind using bluetooth?
My project in my studies is to make an android app using bluetooth, SQLLIGHT and google app
the app itself is a very easy one but I just dont get the tools I need to use :
How does the bluetooth works? Is there a simple example?
the concept behind android GUI (I already made one but I think I am not fully understood his power)?
note : I am using v 2.1
For learning bluetooth on android I guess you should dig into: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/wireless/bluetooth.html
Should be simple.
Before you learn to program Bluetooth with API on a given platform, you need to read up a few basics first to understand the technology first. There are plenty of resource materials on internet for learning. If you prefer a book, you can try http://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Operation-Use-Robert-Morrow/dp/007138779X

Can I build an application with basics of a programming & codes researching ?
my question is that can I build an app with the basics of a programming language like Python and researching on internet on codes that I will need to use on my application.
Thank's.
Yes, you can do. You've to just brush up life cycle of app in iOS & Android e.g. view and activity. All languages are same in semantics except syntax.
Yes its possible. Using basics try with small applications.
After that you can implement advance concepts on these applications with some research and practice.
You can use another programming language like python and many more to build up android and IOS application but you can't build up and default functionality as you can built up and developed by using native programming languages.
I would like suggest that if your are targeting android then you should go for android and if you are targeting IOS then you should go for swift instead of choosing another language.
The reason behind this is that if you spend lots of time to implement something by using another programming language like python ,there is no guarantee whether you will success or not.
if you are choosing native programming language to implement anything it would be easy to implement anything.
Yes it is very possible.
Anyone who understands code can write code Programming languages doesn't matter. Most of us does the same, we know little about our environment and try to come up with a solution but if we are stuck we all search over internet to find the solution. If we can do it so can you.
Just start off by writing some code for your first App and gradually you'll improve with a good pace.
Hope this help, keep coding keep learning!!
Yes, it is possible however researching for codes alone might not be enough to gain a deep understanding about creating apps. It is better if you choose first which mobile platform do you want to pursue (iOS or Android) then start researching about the basics like using its IDE and the app lifecycle. Then create simple mobile apps until you get used to it.
P.S. This is also based from my experience because I also had a hard time learning how to create apps before.
I have a few questions about webRTC on android. I can say I'm new about android and webRTC but I can also say I made tooo much research about webRTC on android. But still have a few questions. (some of them because of I'm new, and some of them because of I'm okey but not fully)
I'm trying to make an android app which is going to communicate between web browser (first choice is chrome) and android device directly (p2p we can say). So I made too much research and I found webRTC is good for me. Do you advise me something other or is it okey you think? (also I am going to code a plugin for chrome).
Nearly every document says 'android is not directly support webRTC'. So I need something to provide me webRTC on android. What it is? Is it native android that I have to code? Is it native (NDK) library that I have to include my project? Or is it a java lib? Or should I go for cordova/crosswalk or sth like that? I researched all but didn't find something can help me. Yeah there are documents about it but not enough..
Some of documents says, I need chromium. But why and how? They show me lots of linux terminal commands and even there is no a line java or C or C++ code. Even some terminal commands and links that they give is not working.
I read/found/tried these things as a result of my research:
Apache cordova
Crosswalk

and something more..
in a nutshell I need help. Please give me your hand. Thank you. (because I'm really very helpless and tried to do my best)
Thank you.
As others have suggested, I recommend checking out g.co/webrtc. As I understand it, your goal is to make Android connect to a web browser using WebRTC. There are two (three) ways you can achieve that.
You can just use Chrome, Opera or Firefox for Android. All these browsers support WebRTC, and it allows you to use the same code for your web app, as for your Android app. With the new Add to homescreen support, as well as support for push notifications from web apps on Android, this could be a very good solution for you.
You can use the Android native WebRTC library, available from WebRTC.org. As mentioned in my article, I recommend using the pristine.io compiled library, available from MavenCentral.
If you can limit your application to Lollipop, you can use WebView, which support WebRTC now iirc. I don't know much about it though.
And the best resource for getting help is discuss-webrtc. It's a lot more active than StackOverflow.
Anyone know if its possible to develop android apps with PowerBuilder.
Haven't found much regarding this on Google, which might mean that it isn't, but still want to hear the opinion of ppl at stackoverflow.
thanks in advance
right now I think the only possibility is Appeon Mobile for PowerBuilder. This is a beta version and it is supporting iOS right now, but in several months it will be capable for building native android and Windows Phone app too.

I hardly waiting it also :)

One other possible solution I've considered but it is NOT a trivial solution. Look at IIS modules and handlers in the MSDN. Basically you can write a handler in PB.NET that will be used in IIS to create HTML5 that will run in just about any browser including mobile.
You then could assign a certain file type (e.g .powerbuilder ) which will be processed by your custom handler that was written in PB.NET.
Might be a good open source project.
Im searching code for RDP Client(OpenSource Google code for Android). Im Strugling to start,
Suggest me, how to start this project?
kumar
The RDP protocol is developed by Microsoft, and the first place to start is with the specification documentation.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240445.aspx
Once you have understood the specification you can design your application to implement them in alignment with the target audience and their specific needs.
There are already RDP client applications available such as Xtralogic, so you should ask if you have or can you identify a real differentiator that will bring people to your app over other already well established and functional ones?
It is a huge project and not something anyone here can (or probably will) write source code for you. I'm sure they will however help with small specific questions related to the overall project.
Good luck!
It can't be done in the AppInventor, yeah?
Just want to make sure before i go off learning all about Java Programming.
Thanks
Well, given this link, it sounds like Bluetooth is possible via AppInventor;
https://sites.google.com/site/appinventorresources/home/tutorial-topics/bluetooth
I havent used AppInventor but if you dont have Java knowledge and arent desperate to learn how to program I think it would be worth trying it, especially if you are keen to get your app built sooner rather than later.
Bear in mind that the implemented BT capability in AppInventor might be quite limited.
some more resources:

AppInventor isn't capable of doing such things. AppInventor isnt developed anymore so i think it will never be able to do such things aswell.
Android development is not restricted to be done in Eclipse.
You can program in other IDE's or even from command line.
