Android
 Android OS is one of the open-source mobile
operating system.
 Android is build on a customized edition of the Linux
Monolithic kernel (2.6).
 Google published majority of the Android’s code under
the Apache License.
 Android smartphones stood first in USA in regard of
selling in 2010.

Android application development step by step:

 Android application development step by step:
 Step 1 : For Android development we need to have the
following packages Eclipse , Android SDK and ADT
plug-in for Eclipse and also need Java SE Development
Kit (JDK) to be already installed on your system.

 Step 2 : Downloading the SDK Starter Package and
Eclipse
 Need to download SDK package for developing
android applications.


 Step 3: Installing the
ADT Plugin for Eclipse
 When your eclipse is
ready, run eclipse and
follow these steps to
install ADT plugin
 1. Start Eclipse, then
select Help > Install
New Software
 2. Click Add, in the
top-right corner.

 3. In the Add Repository dialog that appears, enter "ADT Plugin" for the Name
and the
 following URL for the Location:
 4. In the Available Software dialog, select the checkbox next to Developer Tools
and click Next.
 5. In the next window, you'll see a list of the tools to be downloaded. Click
Next.
 6. Read and accept the license agreements, then click Finish.
 7. When the installation completes, restart Eclipse.
 Step 4 : Configuring the ADT Plug-in
 Modify ADT preferences in Eclipse to point to the Android SDK directory:
 1. Select Window > Preferences... to open the Preferences panel .
 2. Select Android from the left panel.
 3. For the SDK Location in the main panel, click Browse... and locate your
downloaded SDK directory.


 Step 5 :For a first
Android application we
have to select> file>
new> android project. A
new windows will
appear which need some
compulsory
requirements as shown
in the figure below.


 After pressing finish eclipse
will automatically create a
simple project for displaying
hello world.
 And when a green play
button on the top of eclipse
is pressed it will run this
application with help of
AVD manager which
provide a logical phone
emulator as show in figure
below.

BlackBerry OS

 BlackBerry OS is a mobile operating system which is
developed by Research In Motion.
 BlackBerry OS is written in C++.
 Third-party applications can be written using the
existing BlackBerry API (application programming
interface) classes, however applications that use
certain functionality must be digitally signed.

BlackBerry application development

 Step 1: First, we have to download Blackberry JDE 6.0.0 and
BlackBerry Smartphone Simulators 5.0.0 from the link below but
to download, an account in blackberry web site is must.
 https://www.blackberry.com/Downloads/contactForm.do
 Step 2: After downloading both of these packages we now have
to install them on a Windows OS but as we are using 64 bit
Windows 7, we will change its default path to c:Program Files
instead of c:Program Files(86). Because by default most of its
dependencies like JDK etc are present in 32bit Program files.
 Step 3: After installation to start JDE we have to click on start>
All Programs> Research In Motion> BlackBerry JDE 6.0.0.


Step4:
Then we have to make a new project
for Blackberry Os and in the coding
area we have to write THE HELLO
WORLD program.

 Step5: After completing the
code, form the top "Build"
menu we have to select "Build
and RUN " After building it
will automatically start the
BlackBerry Simulator .From
that the top menu of that
simulator we will select "Load
BlackBerry Application “option
which will open a brows
window form where we specify
"helloworld.cod" file. The hello
world program would be
automatically installed to the
download file of the
blackberry present in the
simulator.

Symbian
 Nokia get hold of the Symbian Software Limited in 2008
and a new non-profit independent organization, which is
now known as the Symbian Foundation
 Symbian OS is a mobile operating system used by nokia in
its mobile phones.
 It runs on ARM processors.
 Symbian OS was developed with three systems design
principles, which are:-
 1.The security and integrity of the user data is most
important.
 2.The user time should not be wasted.
 3.All resources are scarce.

Symbian application development step by step
 Step 1: First we have to
download a package
"S60-SDK-0548-3.0-
f.3.215f" which includes
Carbide.c++ IDE
,Symbian OS
emulator, and Symbian
OS
toolchain.Carbide.c++
can also be separately
downloaded .


 Step2:After downloading both of this package we have
to install them on a Windows OS. But here as we are
using 64 bit Windows 7 ,it gives us some problems. To
overcome this problem we used VM Virtual Box by
Oracle and installed a fresh copy of windows XP
which make us able to install SDK and Carbide.c++ in
the ways they should be. While installation of Sdk we
have to Choose the default options, i.e." accept the
license agreement", "choose a Typical installation, and
install the CSL ARM Toolchain".


 Step 3:After
installation to start
Carbide.c++ we have
to click on start> All
Programs> Symbian
Foundation PDT
v1.7.0> Carbide.c++>
Carbide.c++.exe.


 Step 4:Then we have to make a new project for
Symbian Os and in the coding area we have to write
THE HELLO WORLD program. As shown in the
figure.


 Step 5: After adding
hello world code, form
the top "Project" menu
we have to select "Build
Project". After building
by pressing a green play
button on the top will
run our project and will
display our result on a
S60 phone emulator .As
shown in the figure:-

Open moko
 Openmoko Linux is an operating system that is used by
smartphones and is developed by the Openmoko project.
 The main objective of Openmoko Linux was the Neo
FreeRunner and the Openmoko Neo 1973.
 There were efforts to port the operating system to other
mobile phones.
 The development was stopped because of economical
crisis. After the software development for the Openmoko
smartphones was taken over by the community and carries
on in various different projects comprising of
Hackable:1, SHR and QtMoko.

Openmoko application development:
 Openmoko SDK can be install through may different
techniques .By using Cygwin it can also be install on
windows but need much more efforts as compare to
any Linux distribution. But even configuring on pre
installed Linux distribution it needs some tricks and
tweaks which is quit hard for a beginner Linux user.
 Therefore Trolltech provides a pre-Built Qtopia SDK
in Kubuntu Linux distribution.
 Link:
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Developing_with_C%
2B%2B_and_Qt


 It is a sort of .ISO file which needs to be extract and
install on a Windows OS. After installation it will
provide Qtopia.vmx file which is an image file for
VMware Player .Therefore VMware player is also
important to download


 After running this image
file a fresh Kubuntu will
boot up .As it contain a
prebuilt Qtopia SDK
therefore we can easily
run Open moko
Emulator by clicking
runpe bounce mode icon
from desktop.

 Now to run an example program on this simulator we have
to type few commands as below:
 1. source /opt/Qtopia/SDK/scripts/devel-ficgta01.sh
 2. cd ~/projects/application
 3. qtopiamake
 4. make clean ! if previous build exists
 5. make ! make loud to display compiler output
 6. sdk –p ! create the package file
 7. sdk –i ! install the package to the device
 8. On the device, select Install from the dialog that
appears.

 9. On the device, launch the Example application by
selecting Applications->Example. The result would be as
shown.
