Unlocking Android
is a developer-focused tutorial for the Android mobile operating
system. Loaded with practical examples, this easy-to-follow book presents
practical techniques that reach far beyond the Android documentation.
DESCRIPTION
Android is a free, open source, Java-based mobile platform developed by Google.
Unlocking Android prepares the reader to embrace the Android mobile platform
in easy-to-understand language and builds on this foundation with
reusable Java code examples. It's ideal for corporate developers and hobbyists
who have an interest, or a mandate, to deliver mobile software.
The book first covers the big picture so the reader can get comfortable with the
Android approach to the mobile applications. Then the reader learns to apply
Android by following the many practical examples. The book concludes with
two deep and hands-on examples.
Unlocking Android addresses the Android application framework, its graphical
capabilities and media support, data storage, communications capabilities,
phone interactions, and notifications.
KEY POINTS
Android is led by Google, based on Linux, and developed by the Open
Handset Alliance.
Learn key techniques that apply both to corporate and hobbyist developers
The writing is crisp, clear, and fun to read.
MARKET INFORMATION
Mobile development is hot. Unlike vendor-specific proprietary platforms,
Android can be readily customized by device manufacturers and software companies
looking to provide specific features. Any developer/independent software
vendor (ISV) with a product on one of the major platforms available today
(Palm, Windows Mobile, Blackberry, Symbian, J2ME) will consider porting
their code to Android and will benefit from this book.
