Hey guys and gals, hope all is well. Lately to practice my coding skills and ability to adapt to new situations I've started to create challenges in the forms of "hacks" if you can call it that. First of all, don't diss me for this but I did find game hacks interesting, so I dabbled in that for this week and learned how pointers work and had to do with memory writing and reading (Stuff we haven't really touched in my first two years). No, I don't cheat and I can't play because of the unstable internet I have now. Go check my steam profile if you doubt me.
So now I'm moving on and I want to try creating apps for Android. Once again I want to challenge myself by creating a simple app that can record phone calls and take screenshots periodically, perhaps even log keypresses. Reason for this is that we have several businesses and we want the people using the work phones strictly for that, but mainly because clients who owe us money tend to resort to death threats and recording that could possibly result in a safer work environment. Now I know there are apps like that out there, but it could be a fun learning experience for me.
1.) What languages do you prefer to write android apps in? I have experience in Java, C# and C++. But I am guessing most people use Java?
2.) If your preferred language differs from these, can you link the documentation?
3.) If you have created something similar, mind assisting with the logic behind it all or is it as simple as calling a bunch of built in functions and getting everything?
Please don't get stuck on the game hacking, I'm way too scared of VAC bans to even attempt hacking online games.
Also, if the admin or mods feel like this is against the rules, feel free to lock or delete the thread. I however don't believe I'm overstepping any boundaries.
Thanks for any help.
