Hi, I have built an application using android programming and I want to forward & sharing image from one application to other which was loaded from a remote url. I usually search for many Mobile Development Blogs which fortunately get resolved in such Q&A forums. So again, I am hoping that some of the tech experts in this community can help to figure out my issue.

Hello all,
I work for a company in the commercial and residential services industry, and we are looking at possibly expanding into using tablets to help improve efficiency and customer service. However, there is nothing currently out that would suffice for our use, because the database we use at our main office is a proprietary SQL database program. I trying to get a good direction of where to look to be able to hire a programmer to create an Android program for us than can hook into our SQL database.
Any information or leads as to where I might be able to start looking would be fantastic!

Hey DEVs,
I've been a power user for almost a year now. I really really dig Android and I feel its about time that I should start developing for this awesome platform too.
I've previously worked in Java and MySQL but I'm completely new to Android Development. Noob is another word to sum it all up. I've tried few video tutorials by setting up SDK and Eclipse. So far that has worked pretty fine for me. I'm now planning to work on a GIS app that could at least incorporate local POIs of where I live.
Its just that I don't really know where to start things from. I've already spent few days looking for appropriate stuff but whatever I came across, was more like scattered pieces of a Jigsaw puzzle. Google Map APIs is another thing that I need alot to learn about ! so Kindly guide me through and give me something to start with ....... I'l be very very grateful !!
regards,
an aspiring dev !
I wrote a custom GIS android app in flash builder 4.5.1, the code base is flex and actionscript using ESRI's arcserver flex api and uses adobe air for native integration on a mobile device. The web service is a local service I am serving up through the town I work for, it is using ArcServer to serve the data. You can check out the app in the android market its called Vernon GIS Fire. ESRI also has an app in the market, it allows you to search their resource center for different web services, you could upload your own data in the resource center and serve it up using their resoucres

So I am trying to develop an app for my conventions. I have never coded before in my life outside of a basic java class 7 years ago and have a bit of help but not anything android useful.
My buddy is an IT guy and is doing our sql server and VB layout for Windows based systems.
I want to be able to query the SQL server from my android devices an Asus Transformer TF101 and Galaxy S2 Sprint. I also want it to be able to modify entries in the database. It will be used to manage volunteer schedules. I want have updates to the database pushed to my phone.
The things I need to be able to query is Name, phone number, shift time for the current day, punch times for that day, and total logged time for the week.
I have read a few guides on here all with high ratings and have been lost with it all. Having no experience in coding I am trying to find a way to learn this but really prefer to have someone sit down and give me the basics. Best way for me to learn is watching and participating.
Any help would be appreciated.

Vladimir Kulyukin is an associate professor at Utah State University and he teaches Android programming among other things. Search Google for the terms "Vladimir Kulyukin" + "android programming" and you will get his blog with links to all his videos. I cannot post the links here as I am a newbie and not allowed to post links.
If your IT guy is making your SQL server directly accessible from the internet, fire him.
What you need is for him to prepare an API, a REST one perhaps. For REST APIs, you just use the HTTP client library that comes with Android.
I've looked around the forums and the web, but all I've been able to find are apps that allow remote desktop from the android device to a computer.
What I'm wondering, does Android have the ability to support some kind of remote login? through telnet, or rdp, or somesuch.
And if it doesn't support it natively, would it be possible for an app to create a remote session on the device? I spend a good portion of my time at work logged in remotely into other computers, and have been thinking about our society's higher focus on mobile devices, and it seems like it would be fairly useful to be able to remote into a mobile device, like android.
Anywho, I haven't been able to find much on it, so I'll look forward to your responses.
There's an app for that.
Hey Brandon. I don't mean to spam, honestly, but I actually work for a software developer that makes a remote control solution for Android for remotely screen sharing with the device over wi-fi or 3g. It also works for PCs and Macs as well. You can PM me for more details. I don't want to SPAM my company name over the forum.
Btw, the solution doesn't require rooted devices which is another bonus!

I found a solution its called teamviewer quick support. This is recently launched and allows connection into android pho e.
Do not be confused with the team viewer for pc. This is a different application and available to download from Google play store
Make sure you add " quick support" after team viewer to download right app.
Actually I wish I could be able to use my App Inventor programming skills to develop a fully or partially functional launcher apps. But there's no functionality present over that platform. I Googled every bit of information available over the Internet but alas i didn't find anything useful and additionally I didn't want my hands to get dirty on programming complex codes to create such app. So I arrived to this forum and finally decided to ask advanced members of XDA-DEVELOPERS forum to find solutions for my query.
Okay, now I realised after much experimenting with AI2 that so isn't possible at all!
Lol, just mess it up and use other tools.
