I'm in the early midst of making a game with Java, and would eventually like to turn it into an android application.
All the developer technical stuff aside, will the code itself remain the same, or will I have to rework the better part of it?
Thanks in advance for the feedback
Yes,you can do like that where your rendering part need to be changed if you want to use it in android. So the better option is use some framework to port your code to work in Android system as well. LibGdx is such a kind of framework where you can develop and test your application in stand alone mode and without changing your code, you can run it in Android as well. Please refer LibGDX site for more information
Android code is java, so yes!
You'll have to change some stuff. For instance, if you're using swing to show stuff on the screen, you'll have to change it to use the android API; but the core of the code should remain the same.
I remember doing my very first videogame in java. Porting it to android only required me to modify little.

I have developed a game with Java in Eclipse, I would now like to take this 1 to 1 and make it into an app, how can I do this? Is that possible? Can I transfer this to Andriod Studio?
I don´t know how i could make this. Do you know a video or an intruduction?
The android JAVA is kinda tricky. It violates the Java principle of Write Once Run Anywhere
To transfer any java project to android, it is best to:
Separate your Java code that handle UI from the one that handles the logique (its even better to wisely organize the project into packages
create a new blank android project
copy the logique Java code/classes to java resource folder
Convert the UI Java code/classes into android activities

I am new to android and I have covered the basics in java for backend and xml for frontend. What I would like to know is: is it possible to develop an android application completely using react and node? Also, how would it be implemented? If there are some tutorials available for this that anyone could recommend, that would be helpful. I want to know if android backend can be built in any language other than java, c/cpp.
If you read https://facebook.github.io/react-native/ you will know a bit more of how it works, but to build a native app, you need to use a framework that generates native code, or write in a language that the device can compile, like the ones you sad before. React Native generates native code.

I'm a Java developer that hasn't coded in about 5 years and wants to polish up my skills. I am going to create a small app that uses an OAuth 2.0 authentication flow and then makes a few REST calls and displays the results. I've got my credentials setup with the OAuth provider.
I used Eclipse back in the day, is that still a solid IDE for this type of project? If I want to share the app with others to show my work, where could I host the code?
Thanks for these and any other pointers.
first off - yes, Eclipse if still a good choice.
if you can, make you app a web-application, and then you can host it in PaaS such as Google AppEngine. then the app itself will be always accessible from any machine that is connected to the web. this way, you will be able to show it to anyone you want.
if you only want to show the code, then GitHub or Google Code are a good choices.
HTH

I want to build an app in android. I have a sound knowledge of C/C++, but I don't know Java as of yet..!
Do I need to learn java to develop an app in android ?? What does I need to do to develop an app ?
I explored this link http://developer.android.com/training/index.html, but I didn't understand what actually do I need to do to develop an app.
Please help..!
Before starting Android development, you should know these:
1. Basic OOP Concepts.
2. Basic Java.
3. Basic XML.
If you already know these things, then just download JDK (According to your OS) and a suitable IDE (like Eclipse, Android Studio, etc)
And explore the Android Development Portal.
P.S: If you are finding Android Developer's Portal difficult to understand then, you can jump to some nice tutorials and start developing. Here is the list of some nice Android Tuts:
Vogella's Blog
Tutorials Point
Core Servelets
XDA Forum
YES... You'll need to have basic knowledge of XML and Java. And once you are clear with Object Oriented programming with Java, you can start Android Application Development.

I want to make an Android App without much effort. I already have a website with a responsive design. Is there an easy way to convert it or maybe display a website as an Android app?
Have a look at phonegap, it does exactly what you want.
If you really want to go the minimal effort route, why not just create an application with a single Activity using a WebView.
Here is a guide from Google on developing Web Apps in WebView.
By making your web site responsive, i don't think that you need to convert or display your website as a native App. I think that you need a real mobile or android user experience to get the satisfactions of users.
A lot of technical solution exists already like using a webview in your first activity.
But, my advice, is to make a dedicated design for your app and to apply a full android user experience for it.
Good luck
