thanks for the good idea to turn debuggable apk to red. however, the problem i am experiencing that even after i set "debuggable" attribute in manifest to TRUE and build and launch my apk using Eclipse "Run> Debug As", my apk still sees "Config.DEBUG" as FALSE. so right now i don't know how my apk can programmatically learn that it is a debug built. do you have a snippet teaching me how? thanks in adavance.
