First time trying to make an app. What version of eclipse do i need to download and any other advice on downloading the correct would be much appreciated. thanks

Hi @Laleev186, If you are going to do some dev here, I would first apply for the Early Adopter program and get v1.5 of BT. Much better stuff! Take some time to review the videos on how to set up Eclipse and the Android SDK. There is also an excellent article here : http://www.talkandroid.com/android-sdk-install-guide/ I would basically grab the latest editions of everything. Let us know if you have any further questions! Please do take some time to review the documentation and videos...they are very helpful! Mark

Keep in mind that the Android v1.5 is not fully functional at this time. So if this is an app you are looking to quickly complete then v1.4 may be better for you. 1.5 does not have all the features in it yet. Comming soon they say...

error i'm getting after i open it in eclipse.. Unable to resolve target 'Google Inc.:Google APIs:4' what to do? thanks

Hi Laleev186, Lots of users have also had luck using this guide. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html When adding components and other add-ons be sure to get Googles API 2.2 level 8 and use it. It's necessary for maps and setting it up is a good idea even if you don't plan on using maps as it's almost more work getting the maps errors to go away if you don't install it. So when setting up Eclipse, step 1 is getting the 'Hello World' test app up and running. Let us know how it goes.
