Beginning Android Development

I started learning Android Development a couple weeks back. I began by downloading necessary components:

  • Java SDK
  • ADT (with Eclipse and Android Libraries)
The emulator was terribly slow on my hardware so I downloaded the Android device driver for my Android device. This is required for debugging from USB port with your device.

Next, I tried the tutorials at Google: http://developer.android.com/training/index.html
The few tutorials that I tried were frustrating because of compatibility issues between versions. I purchased the Kindle book, "Android Programming: The Big Nerd Ranch Guide". I'm through 4 1/2 chapters so far and it is much better. I'll begin posting again to document any handy tips for Android development.
