Getting on with android

I started learning java and android app building a while back. Everywhere I looked they said 

Learn java first and then start learning to make android application. 

I suggest a different approach. 

Don't learn java completely before jumping into android development. You just need to know only java basics to get started with android. 

Select a java video tutorial on YouTube. See how it works. Then jump straight into android. Learn what you need to know about java along with android. This way you will save a lot of time and learn both things to the extent where you will find you have wasted far lesser time. 

Suggested books to learn Java for android development and android app development.

For java: Head First Java, 2nd Edition

For Android: Beginning Android (Expert's Voice in Open Source) , Hello, Android Publisher: Pragmatic Bookshelf 3th (third) edition Text Only and Android Programming Tutorials, 3rd Edition

Hope this will help a few.

Android Development

This time I am sticking to this.
If you have read few post on this blog you have noticed that I jump again and again and never stick to something.
This time I am sticking to something here. I have started to learn Java a while ago and now I am going to learn android app development this time and make some nice applications for android.
