Yep, that's the official google site. They have their own tutorials out there as well to guide you through developing example apps with android studio. > Incidentally, I looked (quickly as I said) through your book/article, > but didn't see anywhere where you explicitly said > how to transfer your app from emulator to phone. > Do you explain that somewhere, or do you consider it obvious? > Again, does one have to have root access on the phone? > Is that discussed in your article? I probably didn't think about it. What I mostly did was setup a directory on my desktop's web server where I copied the .apk files so I could download them on the phone via a web browser. You don't need root, but you do need to enable the "allow install from any source" over in settings so it will let you install the downloaded .apk file. You can certainly install them with a USB connection and adb commands though rather than downloading them over wifi. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
