Book – Inviting suggestions and contributions

May 20th, 2009 Leave a comment Go to comments

Thanks to all our readers and the overwhelming response we have got for the blog.
We have decided to take things to the next level and publish a book which can get a newbie Android developer started. The book will contain all the tutorials for basic stuff. IT will also contain lot of advance tutorials, introduction to various tools, goodies and source code for lot of sample applications.
If you have specific suggestions or want us to talk about any particular API/Tool in this book, then give us a shout.
If you want to contribute to the book by coming up with tutorials, then give us shout too!
Looking for support for all of our readers!
Also suggest us some good name for the book!

    It would be nice if you could cover low memory conditions, how the application gets killed and the states it goes through – onPause/onResume, saving states in those callbacks for the application to work well in low memory conditions.

    Same goes for power related issues – general rules about using wake locks. And in general stuff that talks about how to write apps to consume less power and minimize cost to user.

    Hi,

    I have been writing a set of tutorials online for a real newbie developer attacking each concept one at a time. You can see them at my blog: http://saigeethamn.blogspot.com.
    Would you be interested in my contributions to the book? I am also learning the android platform development and as I learn I am putting up those tutorials.
    I officially work for Collabera Solutions Pvt. Ltd. at Bangalore
