I am based in Germany and publish the Last Call Widget on the Android Market. I have been steady improving it over time, but one group of users still complain about it not working on their devices. My widget listens for the android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE intent, and then sets an alarm to

Perhaps a Google experience phone can be upgraded over Wi-Fi? This is something I will try out the next time my phone detects an upgrade. If you have an Android Dev Phone then you can upgrade yourself over USB: http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html If you are planning on pitching in

Android lets you install any app you want on your *own* phone. You don’t need a developer phone unless you want root access and have the ability to install your own firmware. There are lots of phones coming from all sorts of carriers, and they all have a “Factory data reset” function if you are

Google apps are designed from the ground up to use a lot of network bandwidth. If you have an expensive tariff, consider disabling networking entirely (or use Wi-Fi) when you are not using it, as there are a lot of invisible background processes that call home a lot. I think this needs to be

2009-07-16 Thread whitemice
The phones are more or less identical to develop on. G1 has crazy small internal memory, G2 has no hardware keyboard, and there are something like 20 odd devices coming out over the coming year. http://phandroid.com/phones/ Pay your money, make your choice.

Last time I checked, there was no ad-hoc support for Wi-Fi on Android, while the Bluetooth API was still unreleased. Currently, “nearby” device discovery is only possible via an intermediate discovery server sharing GPS/Cell ID information. I submitted something along these lines to the ADC

How would that profiting part work? I don't know anyone who's ever bought an application for a mobile phone. They just download free Java apps. Most of my projects have been for companies who wish to advertise their products by giving away compelling content (JavaME games, magazines, etc).

2008-05-29 Thread whitemice
Later rather than sooner, although I doubt Google has any real idea on this. Android is a big software stack with a lot of technical risk, and like all such developments will require extensive end user/community testing to bring it up to standard. iPhone was delayed along similar lines, but
