Point Wise Notes

Note: Points marked in Red are Important

Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi

 First Generation Mobile Phones

Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was the first commercially available cell phone.
Motorola DynaTAC 8000X also called The Brick
First-generation mobile phones were just too expensive.
First-generation mobile phones Designed and Developed by the handset manufacturers.
First Generation Manufacturers didnt want to expose the internal workings of their
handsets, so they usually developed the phone software in-house
As a developer, if you werent part of this inner circle, you had no opportunity to write
applications for the phones
The handset manufacturers
o didnt have the motivation / resources to build every application users wanted.
o Needed some way to provide a portal for entertainment and information services
without allowing direct access to the handset.
Hence Internet was selected as Best Option to provide entertainment and information
services

Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)

First clamshell phone the Motorola StarTAC was released in 1996.

Nokia first slider phones, the 8110referred to as The Matrix Phone
With low-resolution screens and limited storage and processing power, these phones
couldnt handle the data-intensive operations required by traditional web browsers.
WAP was a stripped-down version of HTTP
HTTP is the backbone protocol of the Internet.
WAP browsers were designed to run within the memory and bandwidth constraints of
the phone
WAP sites pages written in a markup language called Wireless Markup Language
(WML).
WAP pages were simple in Design
The WAP solution was great for
o Handset Manufacturers - write one WAP browser
rely on developers to come up with user content
o Mobile Operators. Provided a custom WAP portal, directing their subscribers
to the content they wanted to provide
o Developers
Chance to develop content for phone users
Payment and verification were handled through various premium priced delivery
mechanisms
Short Message Service (SMS),
Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi
 Enhanced Messaging Service (EMS),
Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS),
WAP Push.
Critics began to call WAP Wait and Pay.
Smartphone devices Operating System
o Palm OS (now Garnet OS)
o RIM BlackBerry OS.
Sun Microsystems
o Launched J2ME also known as Java Micro Edition [Java ME]).
Qualcomm
o Developed and licensed : Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless
(BREW).
Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, and Samsung
o Symbian OS,
Apple
o iPhone OS

The Open Handset Alliance

Internet model allows users to choose between freeware, shareware, and paid software.
The Open Handset Alliance (OHA) was formed in November 2007
The OHA is a business alliance comprised of many of the largest and most successful
mobile companies on the planet
OHA members
o chip makers,
o Handset manufacturers
o software developers
o service providers
Andy Rubin has been credited as the father of the Android platform
Andy Rubin company, Android Inc.,was acquired by Google in 2005.
Googles involvement in the Android project has been so extensive that the line between
who takes responsibility for the Android platform (the OHA or Google) has blurred.
Google hosts the Android open source project
Google provides online Android documentation, tools, forums, and the Software
Development Kit (SDK) for developers
Manufacturers: Designing the Android

Handset Manufacturers :Samsung, Motorola, HTC, and LG,

Semiconductor Companies: Intel, Texas Instruments, NVIDIA, Qualcomm.
The first shipping Android handsetthe T-Mobile G1was developed by handset
manufacturer HTC with service provided by T-Mobile, October 2008.
Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi
 The T-Mobile G1 was the first commercial Android device on the market

Android is licensed under GNU General Public License Version 2 (GPLv2).
Android framework is distributed under the Apache Software License ASL/Apache2)
Apache Software License (ASL/Apache2), allows distribution of both open- and closed-
source derivations of the source code.
There are no upfront costs to developing Android applications.
Latest Version of Android is ___________________________________________
The Android SDK and tools are freely available.
Eclipse IDE to design and develop Android applications.
Android applications can be developed on operating systems:
o Windows XP (32-bit) or Vista (32-bit or 64-bit)
o Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later (x86 only)
o Linux (tested on Linux Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, Hardy Heron)
Android applications are written in a well-respected programming language: Java.
OpenGL Embedded Systems (OpenGL ES) Library in Android for Graphics
SQLite - Library in Android for Database
All Android applications use the same libraries.
Androids vigorous application security model helps protect the user and the system from
malicious software.

Android Market

Android applications can be distributed as follows

o Google : Android Market : a generic Android application
store with a revenue-sharing model.
o Handango.com : Addeds Apps in catalogue of billing models and revenue-sharing
model.

Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi

 Each new version of the Android SDK has provided a number of substantial improvements
to the platform.

Android Platform
It is an Operating System :Used to develop mobile Applications
The handset runs a Linux operating system upon which Android applications are
executed in a secure fashion.
Each Android application runs in its own virtual machine (
Android applications are managed codehence fewer instances of device corruption (also
called bricking the phone, or rendering it useless).
Android Architecture

Linux 2.6 kernel

o handles core system services and
o acts as a hardware abstraction layer (HAL) between the physical hardware of the
handset and the Android software stack.
o Kernel functions
Enforcement of application permissions and security
Low-level memory management
Process management and threading
Network stack
Display, keypad input, camera,Wi-Fi, Flash memory, audio, and binder (IPC)
driver access

Android Application Runtime Environment

o Each Android application runs separate process, with own instance of the Dalvik
virtual machine (VM).
o Dalvik VM
Designed based on the Java VM.
Small memory footprint
Multiple instances of the Dalvik VM can run concurrently on the handset.

Security and Permissions

o Integrity of the Android platform is maintained through a variety of security
measures.
o Measures help ensure
Users data is secure
Device is not subjected to malware.

Applications as Operating System Users

o On Application installed, the operating system creates a new user profile
associated with the application.
o Each application runs as a different user, with its own private files on the file
system, a user ID, and a secure operating environment.
o Application executes in its own process with its own instance of the Dalvik VM
and under its own user ID on the operating system
Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi
 Explicitly Defined Application Permissions
o Access shared resources Android applications register for the specific privileges
they require.
o Applications also require permission to access shared data
o Application can declare any number of different permission types,
read-only
read-write permissions

Limited Ad-Hoc Permissions

o Content Provider Applications provide on-the-fly permissions to other
applications :using ad-hoc granting and revoking of access to specific resources
using Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs).
Application Signing for Trust Relationships
o Android applications packages are signed with a certificate, authenticity.
o The private key for the certificate is held by the developer.
o It enables developer to control which applications can grant access to one another
on the system.
o No certificate authority is necessary; self-signed certificates are acceptable
.
Marketplace Developer Registration
o Publish applications Android Market, developers must create a developer
account.
o The Android Market is managed closely and no malware is tolerated.

Developing Android Applications

o Android SDK provides an extensive set of application programming interfaces
(APIs).

Android Programming Language Choices

o Android applications are written in Java.
o If your application must rely on another language such as C or C++ integrate it
using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK).

No Distinctions Made Between Native and Third-Party Applications

o No distinction between native applications and developer-created applications on
the Android platform.
o Application appropriate permissions, have the same access to core libraries and the
underlying hardware interfaces.

Commonly Used Packages

o Developers use familiar class libraries exposed through Androids Java packages
o Android packages include support for
Common user interface widgets (Buttons, Spin Controls,Text Input)
User interface layout
Secure networking and web browsing features (SSL,WebKit)
Structured storage and relational databases (SQLite)
Powerful 2D and 3D graphics (including SGL and OpenGL ES)
Prepared By: Mrs. Reetu Gupta, IT, DYPCOE, Akurdi
 Audio and visual media formats (MPEG4, MP3, Still Images)
Access to optional hardware:location-based services (LBS),Wi-Fi, Bluetooth,
and hardware sensors

Android Application Framework

o Android application framework provides everything necessary to implement your
average application.
o Android application lifecycle involves :
Activities are functions the application performs.
Groups of views define the applications layout.
Intents inform the system about an applications plans.
Services allow for background processing without user interaction.
Notifications alert the user when something interesting happens.
o Android applications interact with the operating system and underlying hardware
using a collection of managers.
o Each manager is responsible for keeping the state of some underlying system
service.
Location Manager that facilitates interaction with the location-based services
available on the handset.
ViewManager and WindowManager manage user interface fundamentals.
o Applications interact with one another using or acting as a ContentProvider.
E.g .Built-in applications such as the Contact manager are content providers,
allowing third party applications to access contact data and use it in an infinite
number of ways.

Step 2 - Setup Android Studio

Overview
Android Studio is the official IDE for android application development.It
works based on IntelliJ IDEA, You can download the latest version of
android studio from Android Studio 2.2 Download, If you are new to
installing Android Studio on windows,you will find a file, which is named
as android-studio-bundle-143.3101438-windows.exe.So just download and
run on windows machine according to android studio wizard guideline.
If you are installing Android Studio on Mac or Linux, You can download the
latest version from Android Studio Mac Download,or Android Studio Linux

Need to specify the ram space for Android emulator by default it would take
512MB of local machine RAM.
At final stage, it would extract SDK packages into our local machine, it
would take a while time to finish the task and would take 2626MB of Hard
disk space.

After done all above steps perfectly, you must get finish button and it gonna
be open android studio project with Welcome to android studio message as
shown below
You can start your application development by calling start a new android
studio project. in a new installation frame should ask Application name,
package information and location of the project.

After entered application name, it going to be called select the form factors
your application runs on, here need to specify Minimum SDK, in our tutorial,
I have declared as API23: Android 6.0(Mashmallow)
The next level of installation should contain selecting the activity to mobile,
it specifies the default layout for Applications
At the final stage it going to be open development tool to write the
application code.

Step 3 - Create Android Virtual Device

To test your Android applications, you will need a virtual Android device. So
before we start writing our code, let us create an Android virtual device.
Launch Android AVD Manager Clicking AVD_Manager icon as shown below
After Click on a virtual device icon, it going to be shown by default virtual
devices which are present on your SDK, or else need to create a virtual
device by clicking Create new Virtual device button

If your AVD is created successfully it means your environment is ready for

Android application development. If you like, you can close this window
using top-right cross button. Better you re-start your machine and once you
are done with this last step, you are ready to proceed for your first Android
example but before that we will see few more important concepts related to
Android Application Development.

Hello Word Example

Before Writing a Hello word code, you must know about XML tags.To write
hello word code, you should redirect
to App>res>layout>Activity_main.xml
To show hello word, we need to call text view with layout ( about text view
and layout, you must take references at Relative Layout and Text View ).

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity">

<TextView android:text="@string/hello_world"
android:layout_width="550dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</RelativeLayout>

Need to run the program by clicking Run>Run App or else need to

call shift+f10key. Finally, result should be placed at Virtual devices as
shown below
