I want to build an Android app and I have an idea of what I want to do. I have no clue how to do it though. I've got some programming background as I spent like two years in college programming in C+ and VB. I've never done any Java though.

Can anyone recommend some good books to start out with?
 
Android Wireless Application Development by: Shane Conder and Lauren Darcey

A bit outdated now (unless they have released a new edition, which is quite possible), but still serves as the best beginner android book I have see.
 
Pirating is looked down upon on these forums. If these books you are sharing are copyrighted, then you should refrain from sharing such material.
 
I think "Beginning Android" by Apress is the best for me to start Android programming. Maybe basic understanding of Java is required as well.
 
There is a program that allows you to develop in BASIC. I was able to use it to develop my first app, which I had troubles getting off the ground when I was trying to develop in Java (I have no coding experience at all.) It's not a book, but I thought it might be of interest..
 
Anyone with experience with the Head First book?
I really loved their Java book and wondering whether their Android Developement book is as good...
