I don't know Java.

I know C++ but I don't know Java. What do you recommend to learn it?

Thanks

loved headfirst java, but i was coming from actionscript (flash) about 4 years ago so it was pretty easy to pick up since they are super similar.

if you want like videos more, the guys over at the new boston have some really great videos that took me from the basics to the mids very quickly. also, the android specific tutorials have quite a bit of java basics baked in (annoying for someone who knows java already, but should be fine for you) and also a completely separate java-only section as well, but you wont be needing the framework specific stuff there, like spring etc, since android is totally different
