Here's part of the content - you would like to know it all? Delve into this book today!..... : Developers write primarily in a customized version of Java, and apps can be downloaded from online stores such as Google Play (formerly Android Market), the app store run by Google, or third-party sites. ... Android consists of a kernel based on the Linux kernel 2. 6 and Linux Kernel 3. x (Android 4. 0 onwards), with middleware, libraries and APIs written in C and application software running on an application framework which includes Java-compatible libraries based on Apache Harmony. ... In early 2011, Google chose to temporarily withhold the Android source code to the tablet-only Honeycomb release, the reason, according to Andy Rubin in an official Android blog post, was because Honeycomb was rushed for production of the Motorola Xoom, and they did not want third parties creating a really bad user experience by attempting to put onto smartphones a version of Android intended for tablets. ...However, as community-developed software has grown more popular, and following a statement by the Librarian of Congress in the United States that permits the jailbreaking of mobile devices, manufacturers and carriers have softened their position regarding third party development, with some, including HTC, Motorola, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, providing support and encouraging development. There is absolutely nothing that isn't thoroughly covered in the book. It is straightforward, and does an excellent job of explaining all about Android (operating system) in key topics and material. There is no reason to invest in any other materials to learn about Android (operating system). You'll understand it all.

Keep Your Android Phone Running All Day
By:"Steven Mann"
Published on 2011-06-01 by Steven Mann

One of the biggest complaints on all of these new fancy smart phones is that the battery gets drained very quickly. I noticed this from day one with my recent Android phone purchase. However, after a day of tweaking every single possible setting to conserve power without losing performance or functionality, I can now run my Android phone for over 24 hours before needing a charge. I was able to tweak my phone and make a huge difference. Some settings are very obvious while other tricks, tips, and settings may not be. I thought that a guide book like this would help others and provide people with some things to think about or change in order to preserve battery life and enjoy their phone experience - without having to run for a charger.
