Hi Folks, Happy Holidays 'n all that. Hope you guys are good. Once again, as the new year approaches, I'm going to try and tackle Android in 2016. After opening up Android studio, it's asking to update 1.1.0 to 1.5. Is this the best version to use for BT now? Does anyone use a Samsung Galaxy Note4 Edge to test/run their apps?

It can, it will. You can, You shall. and if you need any help, you know there are thousands of us cheering you on, ready to assist. Fortunately, it doesn't seem like there are several types of Android Studio (like there used to be with eclipse); just the one. Cranking mine up, I see I am running v1.4.1, and by golly you're right; 1.5 is out, and I'll probably update it later today. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" tablet, a Blu 'Studio Mini C', and my wife's Google Nexus (I think it's actually a samsung) to test with. I like using her phone, because NOTHING looks good on it, and if I can get it to look halfway decent on her phone, it usually looks good on everything else. Do you need anything in particular? Cheers! -- Smug

Thanks Smug! Good to know. I'll update to 1.5. Re: Galaxy Note - I haven't been able to connect it correctly to the mac running 10.9.5. Choose a running device "Nothing to show." I believe I may have to replace a cable; but it appears from a bit of research, I'm not the only galaxy note owner w/this issue. Thanks as always, sir!

Keep an eye out for android studio 2.0. It's going to have a faster simulator
