1.1 AbstractAndroid is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications. Android is a software platform and operating system for mobile devices based on the Linux operating system and developed by Google and the Open Handset Alliance. It allows developers to write managed code in a Java-like language that utilizes Google-developed Java libraries, but does not support programs developed in native code. The unveiling of the Android platform on 5 November 2007 was announced with the founding of the Open Handset Alliance, a consortium of 34 hardware, software and telecom companies devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices. When released in 2008, most of the Android platform will be made available under the Apache free-software and open-source license

1.2 Purpose of SeminarThere are a few reason why developing Android and making it an open standard makes sense for Google on a strategic level. However, it should also be said that Android is not properly open (code can't be checked in by 3rd parties without Google approval), neither free (there are fees associated with implementing it). In any case, by making it "open" and 'free", Google achieves a much higher market penetration and distribution across different territories and brands. Some long-term strategic advantages for Google are: 1) Access to usage data and profiling: through the numerous Google apps that are used on Android phones, through Google ID and sometimes through the OS itself, Google can enrich over time their knowledge of each user's activities, and most importantly build knowledge of what people do when they're not in front of a PC. As information is what Google runs on, this becomes invaluable for the company

2) Smartphone role as a computing platform + emerging countries: it's projected that smart phones will outnumber PCs worldwide by 2012. Additionally, as Google's business in developed countries reaches a point of saturation and starts to grow more slowly, developing countries are going to offer some of the biggest opportunities to grow. In countries like China or India, part of the population is leapfrogging PCs, and satisfying its computing needs through smart phones. This trend is only going to increase 3) Mobile advertising opportunities: Google's main (some would say only) business is targeted advertising, and there are clearly huge opportunities for targeted advertising on smart phones, enabled by profiling and by location awareness. Owning the OS that enables part of the ecosystem is going to allow Google to play a bigger role and to integrate more deeply with its advertising initiatives

4) Other business opportunities: several existing and rumored Google initiatives and acquisitions point to the fact that Google aims to extend their footprint in the mobile ecosystem. My opinion is that, having started with the idea of enabling a mobile ecosystem by providing the basic tools, Google now sees that the ecosystem needs to be nurtured and pushed in the right direction, and that there's a huge business opportunity in doing so. I would not be surprised if, a couple of years from now, Google was offering an end-to-end solution for mobile content / information, starting with discovery and encompassing billing and delivery.

1.3 Goal of SeminarGoogle makes money every time someone does a search. The reason Google bought Android and is giving it away to hundreds of hardware makers -- from phones to televisions to tablets -- is to make more places where more consumers do more searches. It is the next big wave of growth for Google. By the way, an Android tablet device is called a Tabloid.

1.4 Android OverviewAndroid delivers a complete set of software for mobile devices: an operating system, middleware and key mobile applications.

OpenAndroid was built from the ground-up to enable developers to create compelling mobile applications that take full advantage of all a handset has to offer. It was built to be truly open. For example, an application can call upon any of the phones core functionality such as making calls, sending text messages, or using the camera, allowing developers to create richer and more cohesive experiences for users. Android is built on the open Linux Kernel. Furthermore, it utilizes a custom virtual machine that was designed to optimize memory and hardware resources in a mobile environment. Android is open source; it can be liberally extended to incorporate new cutting edge technologies as they emerge. The platform will continue to evolve as the developer community works together to build innovative mobile applications.

All applications are created equalAndroid does not differentiate between the phones core applications and thirdparty applications. They can all be built to have equal access to a phones capabilities providing users with a broad spectrum of applications and services. With devices built on the Android Platform, users are able to fully tailor the phone to their interests. They can swap out the phone's home screen, the style of the dialer, or any of the applications. They can even instruct their phones to use their favorite photo viewing application to handle the viewing of all photos.

Breaking down application boundariesAndroid breaks down the barriers to building new and innovative applications. For example, a developer can combine information from the web with data on an individuals mobile phone such as the users contacts, calendar, or geographic location to provide a more relevant user experience. With Android, a developer can build an application that enables users to view the location of their friends and be alerted when they are in the vicinity giving them a chance to connect.

Fast & easy application developmentAndroid provides access to a wide range of useful libraries and tools that can be used to build rich applications. For example, Android enables developers to obtain the location of the device, and allows devices to communicate with one another enabling rich peertopeer social applications. In addition, Android includes a full set of tools that have been built from the ground up alongside the platform providing developers with high productivity and deep insight into their applications.

2.1 What is Android?Android is an operating system for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet computers. It is developed by the Open Handset Alliance led by Google. Google purchased the initial developer of the software, Android Inc., in 2005. The unveiling of the Android distribution on 5 November 2007 was announced with the founding of the Open Handset Alliance, a consortium of 84 hardware, software, and telecommunication companies devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices. Android consists of a kernel based on the Linux kernel, with middleware, libraries and APIs written in C and application software running on an application framework which includes Java-compatible libraries based on Apache Harmony. Android uses the Dalvik virtual machine with just-intime compilation to run compiled Java code. Android has a large community of developers writing applications ("apps") that extend the functionality of the devices. Developers write primarily in a customized version of Java. There are currently more than 250,000 apps available for Android. Apps can be downloaded from third-party sites or through online stores such as Android Market, the app store run by Google.

Why Android? Android is one of the most versatile, powerful and elegant platforms coming out of Google in recent years. It was initially developed by Android Inc later purchased by Google and positioned in the Open Handset Alliance. As per the NPD group the unit sales Android phones is the largest among Smart Phones. Because it is widely supported by large number of hardware, software and network carriers its market share is growing worldwide in leaps and bounds. Being an open system based on modified Linux kernel it has been widely accepted by the developer community and presents a golden opportunity to create products and services for this amazing platform.

Android is an open source platform and it is released under open source license. The Android operating system software stack consists of Java applications running on a Java.

Android takes a bite from Apple When Android first debuted on the HTC Dream (also known as the G1) back in October of 2008, it was deemed an "iPhone Killer." While it didn't quite slay Apple's handset, it was the first step in a revolution against the tyrannous iPhone. The initial Android platform bested the iPhone OS on several levels, but lacked some key functionality that the iPhone could provide. Since then, Android has grown - not only meeting all of the functionalities of the iPhone, but besting it in nearly all aspects from an extensive list of devices to a growing Android Marketplace.

2.6 Drawback of Android OS Malware and security a Chinese internet security firm, noted in a report that Android is the second largest mobile OS (behind Symbian) to be infected with malware within China. The report stated that Android has become the new "malware hotspot" largely due to the operating system's rise in popularity

Must know before going for AndroidCore Java: Standard Java programming is necessary to program applications for Android. You should understand operators, loops and should have a basic idea of classes and objects. You can refer here to brush up your java skills. XML: You should know what the XML standard is all about and how it is used in software applications. Eclipse: If you have worked in any IDE for Java you should be ok with eclipse. You can read more about it here. Object fundamentals: You will be able to create elegant and efficient programs if you know the basics of OOPs. Features like Inheritance, Polymorphism, Encapsulation and Overloading help us create efficient and organized software systems and it is expected that you as ajava programmer must know them.

The Android programming is done on two levelsSystem Level: It involves modifying the Android system code and adapting it to various hardware platforms. It also involves creating additional services and features in the android system itself. Application Level: It involves creating software products and services which sits on top of the Android software stack and interacts with the hardware through the underlying Android platform. Android applications are built using Java. The Java byte code executes on a efficient and modified virtual machine known as Dalvik Virtual Machine. Dalvik does not align to Java SE nor Java ME Class Library profiles (e.g., Java ME classes, AWT or Swing are not supported).

How program will execute?Important component is Dalvik Virtual Machine: Dalvik replaces the JVM in providing the runtime environment to Java platform applications. The VM runs Java applications which have been converted to the Dalvik Executable format .dex The dx tool available in the SDK converts Java byte code to DVM byte code at build time. The dx format is a highly efficient and compact byte code. dx installed to increase efficiency. The compiled application is bundled by the aapt tool into an Android package .apk Like .jad & .jar in J2ME, .apk files are distributed and installed on Android powered devices can be installed on different devices and can be further modified after being

3.2 Android App Basics Activity LifecycleAs resources are limited in mobile phone the operating system must have some capability to destroy some activity which are not required by the system means the activity which are running in background some times it is required to destroy that activity. Therefore every activity has a lifecycle that will be maintain by Operating System. To avoid losing data or the state of an activity, you must override lifecycle methods to save your data when your activity is paused or stopped.
