I have been working on these:

developer.android.com/courses/fund...

They are straight from Google, and while they are not videos, they are very well explained. Each builds on the other and teach from beginner to pretty advanced stuff.

My only suggestion for you is that you need to research a lot. There isn't one resource that teaches you every single thing. If one tutorial isn't giving you a topic properly, pause it, and find another blog post or something that explains a topic until it clicks.

Good luck.
