    SIMPLE ADDING MACHINE (Beginner)
    Tutorial is for people who already have eclipse installed and the SDK.
    If not go here for info.
    STEP1
    Start up eclipse and start a new android project.
    You can name your project add.
    Then below that youll see properties
    APPliCATION NAME: add
    PACKAGE NAME:com.add
    CREATE ACTIVITY:add
    STEP2
    In the res folder of the package explorer window youll see a layout folder. Enter a paste the following code into the main.xml file. You'll be pasting everything thus overwriting the previous code.

    LAYOUT
    Edit the XML file by cutting this code into it.
    Code:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <AbsoluteLayout
    android:id="@+id/widget41"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"

    The layout file, is the file that defines the actual interface of the application.

    STEP3
    In the src folder paste the following code below in the source file.

    STEP4
    Just run and you have an android app.
    For a better tutorial check android sdk and android resources.

    Respect due, hey mobile_fan_2k5, can you provide screenshot(s) ?
    Most people are visual and like to see what the end result will look like.

    Screenshots go hand-in-hand with sample code
    I recommend Ubuntu

    Default Intermediate Droid Development

    ---------------------PHP+MYSQL + Android= Sweet-----------------------------
    This topic is so problematic. I'm doing a project now that will need database access. This is a tutorial to access remote database with an android...

    Things you'll need
    1... PHP host with MYSQL
    2... And you'll need SDK with handset or Emulator
    3... Basic knowledge of Web Host panel and Php and SQL
    -------------------PHP CODE--------------
    Code:
    <?php
    $host="localhost"; // Host name
    $username=""; // Mysql username
    $password=""; // Mysql password
    $db_name=""; // Database name
    $tbl_name=""; // Table name
    
    // Connect to server and select databse.
    mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
    mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
    
    // username and password sent from form
    $myusername=$_POST['username'];
    $mypassword=$_POST['password'];
    
    // To protect MySQL injection
    $myusername = stripslashes($myusername);
    $mypassword = stripslashes($mypassword);
    $myusername = mysql_real_escape_string($myusername);
    $mypassword = mysql_real_escape_string($mypassword);
    
    $sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE username='$myusername' and password='$mypassword'";
    $result=mysql_query($sql);
    
    // Mysql_num_row is counting table row
    $count=mysql_num_rows($result);
    
    // If result matched $myusername and $mypassword, table row must be 1 row
    if($count==1){
    echo "true";
    }
    else {
    echo "Login Failed";
    }
    ?>


    ---------------------------------------------

    My version that I use....

    So you can try it..

    1... After successful login goes to another view.
    2... UI Dialog to show that app is communicating with server

    3... If failed error Dialog and ask to try again..
