[android-developers] Re: Why are Android apk on Google Play market bound to a Google Account?
Sounds like you didn't about LVL licensing and implement LVL based restrictions to prevent this.

I know the advice to tackle this situation is to request an online login but, for an application that does not require web connectivity for its base functionality, this seems to be a bad practice in terms of usability. So out of curiosity, why aren't these APKs signed to run for a specific account prior download ? This is what iTunes does with their IPAs, they are signed with the relevant Apple ID.

I can confirm that there is absolutely noproblemwith my network bandwidth and I can copy files from/to the computer to/from the Android device using ftp (using File Expert Application) at 16-24Mbps. (I get the live transfer bandwidth by looking at the software running at my computer which is monitoring my computer's network traffic.) I used the same mp4 testvideoencoded at differentbitrate. The resolution of thestreamingvideodoes not matter because I can reproduce this using a 720x480videoas well. All the Android devices I have tested suffer the sameproblem. The Android STB suffers from thisproblemwhenvideobitrateexceeds about 10Mbps. 7 Samsung Galaxy Tab suffers from thisproblemwhenvideobitrateis at or exceeds 6Mbps. Nexus S suffers from thisproblemwhenvideobitrateis at or exceeds 3Mbps. From these results, it is obvious that this is related to the Android OS or the chip used. If the samevideois being played locally from the device's SDcard, there is no suchbufferingproblem, even at several times thebitrate compared to when it is streamed. We have no idea what is going on here and are seeking solutions. I can perform more tests and report here if you can tell me what/how to do the test as a non-programmer (I can't code). However, from our test (or apparent in thevideo), it seems to me that Android OS is dumping the buffer and then refilling it for no obvious reason. This only occurs when hardware decoding was used. Software decoding does not have anybufferingproblems. This means theproblemis definitely not related to bandwidth and most likely related to hardware decodingbuffering. For lowerbitratevideo, we do not see thisproblemat all. We are also interested to hire developers who can fix thisproblemfor us, preferably at the application but fixing this at the OS level is also fine.. Please e-mail me directly if you are capable of fixing thisproblem and available for hire. Otherwise, please provide your opinion on this issue.

(I get the live transfer bandwidth by looking at the software running at my computer which is monitoring my computer's network traffic.) I used the same mp4 test video encoded at different bitrate. The resolution of the streaming video does not matter because I can reproduce this using a 720x480 video as well. All the Android devices I have tested suffer the same problem. The Android STB suffers from this problem when video bitrate exceeds about 10Mbps. 7 Samsung Galaxy Tab suffers from this problem when video bitrate is at or exceeds 6Mbps. Nexus S suffers from this problem when video bitrate is at or exceeds 3Mbps. From these results, it is obvious that this is related to the Android OS or the chip used. If the same video is being played locally from the device's SDcard, there is no such buffering problem, even at several times the bitrate compared to when it is streamed. We have no idea what is going on here and are seeking solutions. I can perform more tests and report here if you can tell me what/how to do the test as a non-programmer (I can't code). However, from our test (or apparent in the video), it seems to me that Android OS is dumping the buffer and then refilling it for no obvious reason. This only occurs when hardware decoding was used. Software decoding does not have any buffering problems. This means the problem is definitely not related to bandwidth and most likely related to hardware decoding buffering. For lower bitrate video, we do not see this problem at all. We are also interested to hire developers who can fix this problem for us, preferably at the application but fixing this at the OS level is also fine.. Please e-mail me directly if you are capable of fixing this problem and available for hire. Otherwise, please provide your opinion on this issue. (I have searched online but did not see anyone encountering this problem. Maybe because no one have tried streaming such high bitrate video yet..)

[android-developers] Streaming buffering problem for high bitrate video (10Mbps)
Hi, We are developing applications that allows one to stream video from any LAN device (e.g. computer, Android phone/tablet, etc) to an Android device. Recently, we encountered a very strange problem on buffering and we believe the issue is possibly related to Android's platform/framework, i.e. lower level stuff. This video shows the problem we are experiencing http://hdmp4.com/TCC9302_STB_buffering_problem.3gp I have tested the same operation on 7 Samsung Galaxy Tab (Android 2.2), Nexus S (Android 2.3) and an Android setop box the one shown in the video). The issues is that when the STREAMING video exceeds a certain bitrate, the video either stops after 5-10 seconds, and then dies (or may continue playing for a few more seconds before dying) or it simply do not play at all. However, if I use an application that decodes the video by software decoding instead of hardware decoding. The video was able to play from start to the end without any problems. (due to slow CPU, arm11, 800mhz, video playback by software decoding as shown in the video link above actually lags but it does play fine.) I run the test streaming the video from a computer connected to the LAN via 100Mbps ethernet. All the test device are connected to the LAN via a b/g WIFI router. I can confirm that there is absolutely no problem with my network bandwidth and I can copy files from/to the computer to/from the Android device using ftp (using File Expert Application) at 16-24Mbps. (I get the live transfer bandwidth by looking at the software running at my computer which is monitoring my computer's network traffic.) I used the same mp4 test video encoded at different bitrate. The resolution of the streaming video does not matter because I can reproduce this using a 720x480 video as well. All the Android devices I have tested suffer the same problem. The Android STB suffers from this problem when video bitrate exceeds about 10Mbps. 7 Samsung Galaxy Tab suffers from this problem when video bitrate is at or exceeds 6Mbps.

This is not something new, but have been available since Android 1.0-1.5 era. Though I think not many people need to resort to this poor man method since most have their own Android phone already. If you run a search, I am sure you will find many guides on this method. Have you seen news of anyone being sued or ran into trouble doing this? Personally, I have not seen any objection from Google to do this.

[android-developers] Re: Best, easiest, cleanest, way to make a game and cross platfrom.
While we are on this topic, what are developer's view on using such cross platform tools/SDK vs the OS's native SDK. E.g. using Corona SDK vs Iphone/Android SDK. What are its advantages and disadvantages? If one wants to develop an application for both Android and Iphone, isn't it better to develop using Android SDK and Iphone SDK respectively for optimum performance and capability/features, considering how fast the Android SDK is being upgraded. At the same time, there are more cross platform tools/SDK to choose from than there are OS native SDK. Isn't it going to create more troubles and headache for developers? For a multi-national coorporation, what would they choose? and why?

May I ask why don't you contact and offer money to the person who wrote SMS Backup + to make this? This would be cheaper, faster and easier than getting a 3rd party to rebuild the same application.

Before you start going after ideas, have you learn how to use the Android SDK yet?

E.g. how much time you can put into it, whether you are working on it alone or in a team, etc Otherwise, you will simply end up doing something which is beyond your capacity or available time. Idea is easy to come but realizing it is the hard part. If you are short on idea, just go into Android market or Apple app store and see what others have made, and see how u can make it better ;) If you willing to build a commerical apk for someone for free as well as for your own college schoolwork, I am sure there are plenty of people who be happy to give u something to build.

I would say the answer is a obvious YES. The trouble is finding someone/company willing to buy it at a price that you are willing to sell. I do believe you would probably need someone to do the selling for you. Finding a buyer is not a easy task and there is a lot involved, unless you already have interested buyer.

You can try posting the same question in the Android platform or try searching the Android issue tracker. Btw, are you a programmer? we could collaborate if so. Thanks but I'm really flat out atm. Probably not much use to anyone presently. Glad to help when I can.

[android-developers] Re: Archos gives away Android W VGA 4.8 Tablets for 1€ to developers in France
Where is the Official Archos Press release for this? (can't find see anything from Archos...) I can't read french. Is this offer available for any Android developer? or only those in French? Thanks Eric On Nov 9, 8:18 pm, Charbax char...@gmail.com wrote: At least, that's what is being talked about in French athttp://www.frandroid.com/6546/1e-larchos-5-it-cest-possible/ The concept being that for developers submitting at least one approved application tohttp://appslib.com, that developper can get a 228€ rebate voucher code to his email and order the Archos 5 Internet Tablet with Android and 8GB storage then from Archos website. I do not know if Archos has some kinds of manual verification other than to check that the application works fine on 800x480 (and through HDMI 1280x720) screens, perhaps Archos also checks that the app is original and not automatically generated by non-coders using some kinds of Android app generators where you input an RSS feed and it automatically outputs a duplicated app that simply displays the contents from that RSS feed. I think this is a great idea for Archos, to try to get the attention from 1000 of the best Android developers, to submit their apps tohttp://appslib.combecause Android developers are often the most influential early-adopters. So if 1000 Android developers are impressed by the Archos 5 Internet Tablet, it may inspire them to develop more apps for WVGA medium density since Archos is the first and only 4.8 WVGA medium density Android product on the market. Also, having more apps, and having more developers enthusiastic about higher resolution Android development, will encourage more consumers to look into it. For now, only free apps are supported inhttp://appslib.com, but later paid apps will work as well. My suggestion would be for Marketplaces in general to offer a Premium subscription plan for around $3 per month or something like that, to offer full access to installing and updating Premium applications. This way developers can decide if they want to sell their apps or include them in the premium access plan, and as well if they want to offer a purchase rebate for premium access subscribers. This way, the developers of the most useful and most used apps would automatically get paid more from the premium subscription plan. Probably that many more users won't mind paying that unlimited premium access, pirates will probably not care to pirate anymore since premium access subscription would be so affordable and this way more money would be distributed to developers. This premium Android apps plan is though just my idea, I don't know if it has been suggested before. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

It seems curious that you seem to have made the same error that you are complaining about -- not completely reading the email. It's almost as if making mistakes were, like, human or something. Of course, it is also curious that you appear to think this is an end-user tech support forum (which it is not) and that it is Google's primary responsibility to respond to you here (which it is not). But I digress. No status updates or responses on the bug report from 7+ months ago. Please point out the official public bug trackers for Windows Mobile, Blackberry, iPhone, and Palm WebOS. I'm not even sure there's one up for Symbian, and they're at least on the road to open source. Please point out where you get detailed, bug-level information months in advance of product releases for Windows Mobile, Blackberry, iPhone, Palm WebOS, and Symbian. Please point out how you -- whether via your own engineering efforts, or by hiring somebody, or by collecting interested people to raise money to hire somebody -- have a chance to fix bugs in Windows Mobile, Blackberry, iPhone, or Palm WebOS, as you can with Android. I'll give Symbian a mulligan here, since they're in progress on this issue. Had this same bug, or an equivalent one, affected you on one of these other platforms, the best-case scenario is that, after sitting in indefinite tech support queues, you would be told it is a bug and it may get fixed someday. Here, not only were you able to file the bug report without much effort (albeit with no better of a response), but you have options for spearheading a fix, which you lack with any other commercial-grade smartphone platform. Now, you may not elect to use any of those options to accelerate a fix, but that's your decision, not Google's. Regardless, you are no worse off than you would have been with any other platform with the same sort of bug. If you want to whine about how Android has bugs, be my guest, just don't whine about the lack of response, since that's all you'll get from anyone.

Two timeless plans offer 1.5GB ($113.95 per month) and 3GB ($129) data allowances respectively. http://www.techworld.com.au/article/275393/htc_launches_first_android_phone_australia_partners_optus You can check out the details from Optus (www.optus.com.au) I think one of the limiting factors for Android in such countries is many customers would be shocked with the data overchargeand this would prevent Android uptake in mobile phonesGoogle should really implement some simple settings within Android to allow one to shut off data access to 3G/GPRS completely (but not wifi) instead of relying on 3rd party apks.E.g. a simple click at the 3G/ GPRS data icon to turn it off? This would be useful for roaming customers as wellI am sure everyone have seen the roaming story already?

[android-developers] Re: Android SDK v1.1 due soon?
If you read the Android blog, 1.1 SDK is just released Cheers Eric On Feb 10, 4:48 am, monmonja almondmend...@gmail.com wrote: You can download it from google but just not on the download page. I know its not there for a reason but if you really want to try 1.1 http://almondmendoza.com/2009/02/09/android-sdk-11/ I would suggest anyone to wait for the one on the download page coz they might still change something or fix something.
