purchased it in 2005. 
 Android is a Andy’s nick name because of his fascination 
in robot. 
 Andy Rubin and the team worked on the precursor to 
Android, which they aimed would run on phones and 
digital cameras. 
 OHA formed in 2007 and Google was released Android 
beta version as an open source under Apache licsense.
Open Source: 
 Open-source is a development model promotes 
an universal access via a free license to a 
Product. 
Ex: Ubuntu, Open Solaris, Free BSD. 
Closed Source: 
 Closed-source is also a development model and 
it have certain license we must buy and it’s 
source code doesn’t share with public. 
Ex: Windows, Mac OS, Solaris .
 OHA is a consortium of 98 firms to develop Open 
standard for Mobile device.

widgets and folders on home screen. 
 Donut: It is resolution of Home screen widgets and 
folders and it have efficient camera interface. 
 Éclairs: It is mainly used for browsing purpose and it 
also update the Google map API. 
 Froyo: It is faster than previous versions due to Just-in-time 
compiler and it supports Adobe flash. 
 Gingerbread: It is mainly used for UI, and it have 
NFC(Near Field Communication) so that the devices are 
can share the data with out connection. 
 Honeycomb: It is mainly used for tablets but it was 
little bit succeeded but greatly improved in 3D 
rendering and hardware acceluration.
 Ice Cream Sandwich: It is refined version of Honeycomb 
and it optimizes the mobile device. 
 Jellybeans: It support multiple account users , home 
screen notifications, lock screen widgets, quick search 
notification bars, photosphere, Google now. 
 Kitkat: It having lot of advantages like Better memory 
management, Improved Google Now, hangouts app 
upgreaded,smart caller Id, immersive mode, integrated 
with cloud storage, lock screen Art.

 Android is based on 2.6 Linux kernel. 
 Kernel act as a bridge between S/W and H/W. 
 It provides some system services such as 
Security, Process management, Memory 
management and drivers .
 Each Android run on its own processor instead of Dalvik 
virtual Machine. 
 Dalvik has been written so that a device can run on 
multiple VMs efficiently. 
 The DVM executes files in Dalvik executable format 
which optimized for minimal memory. 
 DVM converts the .class files into the .dex(Dalivk 
executable) files.
 Android includes a set of C/C++ libraries used by 
various components of Android System. 
Surface Manager: manages Access to display 
subsystem and seamlessly composites 2D and 3D 
graphic layers from multiple applications. 
SSL: Source Socket layer. 
SGL: Scalable Graphics Library. 
SQLite: It is a powerful and light weight relational 
Data Base Engine available to all application.
 Android will ships a set of core applications including 
email client, SMS program, calendar, Maps, Browser and 
Contacts. 
 In application framework we have many components 
one of the very important component of application 
framework is activity manager. This is the component 
which actually manages life cycle of the applications 
and gives us a common back-stack for navigates.
Tolls used in Android: 
• Android SDK 
• Java JDK 
• Eclipse IDE 
• ADT-plugin 
Languages used in Android: 
• Java 
• XML(Extensible Markup Language)
Eclipse IDE 
 Eclipse IDE is an open source community whose project building 
tools and frameworks are developed for general purpose 
applications. 
 The most popular usage of Eclipse is as a Java development 
environment. So android project also developed using eclipse. 
 Download the ADT(Android Development Tool) plugin 
• Start Eclipse, then select Help > Install New Software 
• Click Add, in the top-right corner. 
• In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT 
Plugin" for the Name and the following URL for the 
Location. 
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse 
• Click OK.

 src – your source code(JAVA) 
 gen – auto-generated code (usually just R.java) 
 Included libraries 
 Resources(XML) 
 Drawables (like .png images) 
 Layouts 
 Values (like strings) 
 Manifest file
• Preferred way of creating User Interface. 
• Used to define some of the resources 
 Layouts (UI) 
 Strings 
• Manifest file
• Auto-generated: you shouldn’t edit it 
• Contains IDs of the project resources 
• Enforces good software engineering 
• Use findViewById and Resources object to get 
access to the resources 
 Ex. Button b = 
(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1) 
 Ex. getResources().getString(R.string.hello));
• In res/values 
strings.xml 
• Application wide available strings 
• Promotes good software engineering 
• UI components made in the UI editor should 
have text defined in strings.xml 
• Strings are just one kind of ‘Value’ there are 
many others
 Contains characteristics about your application 
 When have more than one Activity in app, NEED 
to specify it in manifest file 
 Add an Activity in manifest.xml 
 Need to specify Services and other components 
too. 
 Also important to define permissions and 
external libraries, like Google Maps API
 To run android application right click your 
project and 
Run as Android Application 
 To debug your application right click your 
project and 
Debug as Android Application

 There are 7 steps 
STEP1: 
 Make sure you’ve properly prepared, tested, 
and compiled your app as outlined in 
the Android Developers Guide.
 Create a Developer profile on the Android 
Market. From the Android Market site, sign with 
your Google Account. If you don’t have a Google 
Account, you can register for one on Google. 
 To create the Developer profile, you’ll need to 
provide your name, email, website URL, and 
phone number.
 Pay a $25 registration fee. This is a one-time 
fee required for all developers, even if you are 
publishing a free app. You can pay using credit 
card or Google Checkout.
 Agree to the Android Market Developer 
Distribution Agreement.
 Once you’ve completed the registration 
portion, you’re ready to upload your app. Click 
the Upload Application button.
 Upload your compiled .apk file to the Android 
Market. You’ll need to fill out a form and upload 
all assets including any screenshots or 
promotional graphics. On the form, you will 
provide details such as a title, description of 
your app, category, price, and language.
 Once the App is uploaded, you should see in the 
Android Market in a matter of moments.
