Java for Android - where to start?

I am an oraclist with good experience, but in this area, remote work is fantastic, it’s completely the most severe enterprise, so I decided to try to change my profile to JAVA (besides, java is not out of place for an oracle developer).
Advise where to start learning JAVA (especially for mobile applications)? What frameworks to read about?
Books, educational videos, etc. Russian or English doesn't matter.

My path to Java from another language and then to Android was as follows:
1. I read a few basic books:
Schildt's Handbook for understanding syntax, collections, generics, etc.
Bruce Eckel Java philosophy for understanding Java concepts.
2. Simultaneously with the first point, I solved about 100-150 tasks in java at acm.timus.ru 3.
After a couple of months, I went to an interview for a java developer. There I found out in which places knowledge is lacking especially. I pumped it, went again - profit (if not profit - they will repeat until profit: o)).
4. At the same time, I began to study android according to the principle - you set a task (for example, write tic-tac-toe) and read everything related to its solution.

To begin with, it is worth getting to know the language itself. To do this, you can read Schildt and practice understanding the pitfalls on online tests .
After this learning of the basics of the language, frameworks and the transition to the android platform should be relatively painless.
The main thing is not to immediately rush to write something complicated, practice on bicycles.

Pro Android books in English are very good.

I advise you to start with videos on Youtube

I think for a start it is necessary to study well Java.
I recommend starting with: "Thinking in java", "Java. Effective Programming.
Well, then it will be easier, install the Android JDK and I think you will master everything on the docks from Google.
