Re: [android-developers] Re: [Android LVL] Sporadic false negatives on client devices

2012-10-28 Thread Zsolt Vasvari


 Google hires the best of the 
 best of the best, but they're only human too. 


I couldn't disagree more.  I consider myself the best of the best when it 
comes to efficiency, common sense and business acumen, but they didn't hire 
me even after a long interview process.  I am not trying to sound bitter, 
but that's simply not the skill set they are looking for, even though, when 
it comes to the Android Market, and generally running a business, a little 
bit of common sense would go further than the knowing the complexity of 
algorithm X.

Honestly, I am not surprised that Google Play Store and the developer 
facing assets are in the shape they are in.

Back to the LVL topic -- in my implementation, I allow a 30-day grace 
period where if the license check doesn't succeed, I let them use the app 
for 30 days without any warning or interruption.  Of course, I have 
customer asking for refunds after the refund period expires and if I refund 
them, they can still use the app for 30 days.  But hopefully, in those 30 
days they realize that the app is valuable to them and they will repurchase.

You have to realize they have hundreds of thousands apps in Google Play, 
with probably many tens of thousands developers.   It's impossible to 
support everyone effectively.

But there should be an option for timely, paid support for those developers 
who are willing to pay for it, and such support should be extended to 
developers from whom Google has earned a significant revenue.

What Google doesn't seem to realize, that for some developers, like me, 
selling apps is their livelihood.  A screw up on somebody's part, mine or 
Google's, could literally have me find myself sleeping under a bridge, with 
no recourse.

Since you are here, maybe you can answer this:  What's with the fact that 
only Top Developers can reply to comments?  What's the definition of a 
Top Developer and how does one become one?  My app is in the top 10 in 
its category, so I would definitely consider myself a Top Developer, if I 
went by the definition of those words, but alas, I cannot reply to people's 
comments.

By Google doing this, they are shouting out to developers that you are not 
important to us, and we are going to help your competing app by giving them 
to have the very important advantage of letting them replying to comments.

2012-10-28 Thread Pent
 You have to realize they have hundreds of thousands apps in Google Play,
 with probably many tens of thousands developers.   It's impossible to
 support everyone effectively.

Don't make excuses for them. I have around 300k users and my app is
pretty complicated, but I can still support them effectively. Not
everyone has problems all the time.

As well as support for Play-Store-related issues being more than
useless, queries to Checkout (or Wallet, whatever it's called these
days) also results in no-response or no-info standard answers for the
whole time I've had to use it.

I blame the monopoly position.

Re: [android-developers] openGL not removing all lines/points

2012-10-28 Thread Harri Smått
Hi,

I think you're rendering too many elements in your onDrawFrame -method.

buffer.position(0);
gl.glVertexPointer(2, GL10.GL_FLOAT, 0, buffer);
gl.glDrawArrays(GL10.GL_POINTS, 0, counter);

Here counter seems to be number of values within buffer while you should render 
only number of vertice elements. Meaning, if I read your source code correctly, 
you should render counter/2 points (or line strip vertices).

 for, even though, when it comes to the Android Market, and generally 
 running a business, a little bit of common sense would go further than the 
 knowing the complexity of algorithm X.


Yeah, you know so much better than their board does how to run Google.

Or how to evaluate their staffing needs.
 


 Honestly, I am not surprised that Google Play Store and the developer 
 facing assets are in the shape they are in.


Because had they hired you, all their problems would have gone away and 
bluebirds would be singing in Mountain View.

But they didn't, so it's Mordor there now.

[android-developers] Starting ADB server failed (code -1)

2012-10-28 Thread solnichko
Hi,

I have been trying to update SDK via SDK Manager. And once it was finished 
the Log had following message:
...
...
Updated ADB to support the USB devices declared in the SDK add-ons.
Stopping ADB server succeeded.
*Starting ADB server failed (code -1)*.
Done. 3 packages installed.
Done loading packages.


This same message [2012-10-29 09:43:53 - SDK Manager] Starting ADB server 
failed (code -1). was displayed in the console window.

Does anybody know what the *Starting ADB server failed (code -1)*. means.

Thanks :)

[android-developers] Nexus 7 USB Host - Not able to enumerate device

2012-10-28 Thread Kiran
Hi All,
I recently bought a Nexus 7 for USB development.  I would like to use the 
USB Host functionality provided by the new Android OS.  I was following the 
USB Host Tutorial at the link: 
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/usb/host.html.

My program is very simple, and here are the relevant parts of the code:

*private UsbManager manager;
*
* *
*public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {*
*super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);*
*setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);*
**
*Log.i(TAG, in onCreate());*
*manager = (UsbManager) getSystemService(Context.USB_SERVICE);*
*if(manager==null) {*
*Log.i(TAG, USB Manager is NULL);*
*}*
*else {*
*Log.i(TAG, USB Manager =  + manager);*
*}*
*}*
**
*public void enumerateUSBDevices() {*
*HashMapString, UsbDevice deviceList = manager.getDeviceList();*
*CollectionUsbDevice deviceCollection = deviceList.values();*
*IteratorUsbDevice deviceIterator = deviceCollection.iterator();*
*Log.i(TAG, Number of connected USB Devices =  + 
deviceCollection.size());*
*while(deviceIterator.hasNext()){*
*UsbDevice device = deviceIterator.next();*
*Log.i(TAG, device.getDeviceName());*
*}*
*}*


When the enumerateUSBDevices function is called, it reports that the number 
of connected USB Devices = 0.  I am using a USB OTG cable, and I know that 
the Nexus 7 is powering the connected USB Device because I plugged in a USB 
Mouse, and it works properly.  I also plugged in another Android phone, and 
the Nexus 7 was confirmed to be powering the device.  However, in both of 
these instances, the Android program says that there are no USB devices 
connected.  I am unsure what is going wrong in my code.  In my Android 
manifest, I have the following line:

*uses-feature android:name=android.hardware.usb.host /*

My manifest does not have any intent filters associated with any USB 
devices.  My understanding based on reading the tutorials is that the 
intent filters need to be in the Manifest only if you want the APP to be 
notified when the USB device is connected after the App is running?

Can anybody shed light into what I may be doing wrong?  Do I need to root 
my device?

Thanks,
Kiran

 One thing I can definitely confirm is that they are not 
 device manufacturer.

 Suppose there is a google account(*ga*) which contains several apps.

 My guess is that they might register a stock device with the *ga* by 
 AccountManager 
 and then call the sync api (I don't know exactly what api will be here)

 Finally, after the device performed sync process, log 
 out programmatically 
 the apps will be remained and it looks like silent install.

 And they prepare to release their service next month.
