INTRODUCTION TO MOBILE OPERATING SYSTEMS
• Symbian• Android• Apple iOS• Blackberry OS• Windows OS• BADA• Palm OS• Open WebOS
WHAT IS ANDROID? Android is an open source and Linux-based
operating system for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet computers. Android was developed by the Open Handset Alliance, led by Google, and other companies.
The first beta version of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) was released by Google in 2007 where as the first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released in September 2008.
Andy Rubin
WHY ANDROID ?• Open Source• Large Developer Community• Increased Marketing• Reduced Cost of Development• Higher Success Ratio• Inter App Integration• Rich Development Environment
FEATURES OF ANDROIDFeature Description
Beautiful UI Android OS basic screen provides a beautiful and intuitive user interface
Connectivity Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GSM/EDGE, IDEN, CDMA, UMTS, WiMAX
Storage SQLiteMedia support MP3, MPEG-4 SP, WAV, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP
Messaging SMS and MMSWeb browser Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine supporting HTML5 and CSS3.
Multi-tasking User can jump from one task to another and same time various application can run simultaneously.

LINUX KERNEL
•The architecture is based on the Linux2.6 kernel.
• This layer is core of android architecture. It provides service
like power management, memory management, security etc.
• It helps in software or hardware binding for better
communication.
NATIVE LIBRARIES
• Android has its own libraries, which is written in C/C++. These libraries
cannot be accessed directly. With the help of application framework, we
can access these libraries. There are many libraries like web libraries to
access web browsers, libraries for android and video formats etc.
Android Run Time
• The Android Runtime was designed specifically for Android to meet the needs of running in an embedded environment where you have limited battery, limited memory, limited CPU.
• Dalvik is the process virtual machine in Google's android operating system. It is the software that runs the apps on android devices. Dalvik is thus an integral part of android ,which is typically used on mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers.• Programs are commonly written in java and compiled to byte code.
Android Run Time
•This is in blue, meaning that it's written in the Java programming language.
•The core library contains all of the collection classes, utilities, IO, all the utilities and tools that you’ve come to expected to use.
Application Framework
•This is all written in a Java programming language and the application framework is the toolkit that all applications use.•These applications include the ones that come with a phone like the home applications, or the phone application. •It includes applications written by Google, and it includes apps that will be written by you. •So, all apps use the same framework and the same APIs.
CONTD…These are as follows:-• Activity manager:-It manages the lifecycle of applications. It enable proper
management of all the activities. All the activities are controlled by activity manager.• Resource manager:-It provides access to non-code resources such as graphics etc.• Notification manager:-It enables all applications to display custom alerts in status
bar.• Location manager:- It fires alerts when user enters or leaves a specified
geographical location.• Package manager:-It is use to retrieve the data about installed packages on
device.• Window manager:-It is use to create views and layouts.• Telephony manager:-It is use to handle settings of network connection and all
information about services on device.
APPLICATION LAYER
•The final layer on top is Applications.
•It includes the home application the contacts application , the browser, and apps.
•It is the most upper layer in android architecture.
•All the applications like camera, Google maps, browser, sms, calendars, contacts are native applications. These applications works with end user with the help of application framework to operate.
FEATURES OF ANDROID
Background Wi-Fi location still runs even when
Wi-Fi is turned off
Developer logging and analyzing enhancements
It is optimized for mobile devices.
It enables reuse and replacement of components.
Java support ,media support, multi touch, video calling,multi tasking ,voice based features, screen capture, camera ,bluetooth,gps,compass and accelerometer,3G
DIS-ADVANTAGES
it has security related issues, malware.
Android operating system uses more amount of battery and process in the background causing the battery quickly drains.
Sometimes slow device company issued an official version of Android your own .
Extremely inconsistence in design among apps.
Very unstable and often hang or crash.

How to Install Eclipse and Setup ADT
CONTD..S.N. Folder/ File Description
1 srcThis contains the .java source files for your project. By default, it includes an MainActivity.java source file having an activity class that runs when your app is launched using the app icon.
2 genThis contains the .R file, a compiler-generated file that references all the resources found in your project. You should not modify this file.
3 binThis folder contains the Android package files .apk built by the ADT during the build process and everything else needed to run an Android application.
4 res/drawable-hdpi
This is a directory for drawable objects that are designed for high-density screens.
5 res/layout This is a directory for files that define your app's user interface.
6 res/values This is a directory for other various XML files that contain a collection of resources, such as strings and colours definitions.
7 AndroidManifest.xml
This is the manifest file which describes the fundamental characteristics of the app and defines each of its components.
