Then why post at all? (If normally no one offers help? It seems a waste of 
time.)

And some of us would only test someone else's application if paid for our time. 
Generously. As in, better than our market rates.

Of course, there are services (http://bitbar.com/) out there 
(http://www.globaltestingexperts.com/mobile-application-testing-service) that 
offer far more rigorous and reliable 
(http://www.v-softinc.com/google-android-application-testing-services.html) 
reporting than a bunch of random one-offs from a forum. (Pro tip: Searching the 
web from google.com for "Android Testing Services" yielded those links and many 
more.)

On the other hand, if you're relying "on the kindness of strangers"...or 
competitors, rather...for testing services, you deserve what you get.

And lest this posting be misunderstood, asking folks I don't know to test my 
application is not the route I would take but to each one's own.
