Q:

android API TabActivity deprecation

Well, im developing and app for api 8 with TabActivity but i found out today that "This class is deprecated."
So we should use FragmentActivity from now to implements tabs? but what about when i want to show a listview with an activity? Do i have to use ListFragment (but this is "Since: API Level 11")
As anyone can see, im confuse about how to move on. 
It would be great if someone can provide me good and clear concepts about this issues, tabs, fragment and any other useful advice (AsyncTaskLoader just for api11?)
btw, i was reading that fragment can be use since api 1 but now i can't find that. please help :(
edit: just re change the title cuz ListFragment wasn't deprecated. If i am not suppose to do that, plz sorry newby here :D

In Android, "deprecated" usually means "we will continue to maintain this as long as we can, but there are better options that you should consider". In the case of TabActivity, the long-term plan is for tabs to be in the action bar, which you can use on Android 3.x and higher, and on Android 2.x on down using something like ActionBarSherlock.

So we should use FragmentActivity from now to implements tabs?

Not necessarily, though it is certainly an option.

but what about when i want to show a listview with an activity? do i have t use ListFragment (but this is "Since: API Level 11")

ListFragment is also available in the Android Support package, the same place where you get FragmentActivity.

AsyncTaskLoader just for api11?

AsyncTaskLoader is also available in the Android Support package.

That would cover a couple of hundred pages in books. You might consider asking additional questions where you are more specific.
If you have not done so already, please read:

A:

You can use use android-support-v4.jar to use fragment in lower version
