I don't like the idea of the users having to download all that data every time they use my program. That basically turns the app into just a web site, sort of. I could probably shrink it all from 15 to 5MB with only a minor loss of quality and content. If this limit is only a problem with 1.5 and 1.6 , and the first Android phones in Canada are Droids, then I suppose I just have to upgrade my program to 2.0 and hope nothing breaks. A lot of android apps use this technique : download images to SD card on first run (in fact if it detects data is not there on the card). You get a popup asking if ok to download. This is a one time download, not every time you use the app. Even in android platform, text to speech data has to be downloaded before it can be used (depending on the phones... this is true for space limited G1, and also for my french Magic). Anyway, I consider application using more than 3MB as big ones, and more than 5MB as very big ones. 15MB is a no-go, even if it worked ok at download time from market. And this is with a HTC Magic. G1 users with half the internal memory would be even more reluctent to install such big apps. Future android release will allow installation of apps on sdcard (2.1 does not), which could allow bigger apks Also note that having separated apk and data allows upgrade of one whithout re-downloading the other. Else, any upgrade of your app, even minor, would imply the re-download of 15MB from market. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

On Fri, Nov 20, 2009 at 14:53, dadical keyes...@gmail.com wrote: If you're running on a G1, and have even low-mid memory reqs, you are pretty much SOL. Android will kill off processes to free resources for new foreground activities, and services, particularly those running in a background process, will get axed first. Watch logcat in verbose mode to validate that this is indeed what is happening. Things are going to get even worse for you in 1.6. Donut itself consumes more memory leaving less room for your background service. Once a foreground activity is bound to your service, the service will be much less likely to get killed, so your only option in low-mem scenarios may be to check at binding time and see if your persistent connection is available, and reconnect if not. This approach is the best solution that I can think of for gracefully degrading the functionality of your service in low-mem situations. Indeed on my magic, logcat often shows that background processes were killed while booting due too low memory, even before I could do anything. (yes I am trying to reduce as much unuseful apps as possible... what is bad is theses apps I do not need to autostart though I do not want to uninstall). But if your service process is killed due to low memory, won't the system try to restart it later ? (though of course if there are still too many services running there is still a problem) And anyway, your could at boot time just set an alarm to defer the initialisation of your service. So that a lot of processes that where running at boot time will have finished and more resources are available. You may also still try to do your job immediatly, but before that set an alarm in case of.

[android-developers] zipalign : could be done at distribution or installation time ?
I just noticed about zipalign http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/zipalign.html This optimization is to be done after the apk is done / signed. Does this mean that zipalign may be run by the Market itself ? Or even by android at install time on the phone ? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Re: Is there a way to auto-power on the phone?
Would be a good addition for future. But note that compared to most other phones, power on from total shutdown is quite long. What would be good is an option to go to hibernate (not only sleep). Even without programmed wake up, this would allow to shutdown your phone and start it up again without : 1-waiting for whole boot process (if you need to make an emergency call I imagine how frustrating this would be ! -Maybe an easy boot option to have just emergency calls available ASAP would be a nice addition-) 2-loosing your context (the application you were running,...) And totally shutdown the phone is useful when you want to really use 0 battery for some time, you want to pull off the battery (extract SIM, put a spare battery). - As of now, is it possible to force Android to sleep (even if only to RAM), so that it does nothing except keep state in memory, and wake up on button press ?

Let me Western Union you $5,000,000USD and I'll give you 10%. By the way I need all of your personal information to do this. While I'd like to think that your intentions are good, I'd not trust doing this for anyone. I'm going to venture a guess that this is also true for others. Be cautious indeed. Though in this case it is more the russian developpers who are at risk, no ? : in fact they have to give their application to someone in US so that he will sell it, under its name, and then only he is supposed to give them back 95% of what he earned. (Of course if this guy is asked to pay something before even selling an app he has to be courageous :-p ) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

If that is the case, then I would be taking on the risk as a developer, but getting no guaranteed monetary compensation for doing so. Maybe I misread it. Still sounds a bit shady to me. Well I do not know what they are ready to accept ! Anyway, there are also taxes to pay from the money that will transit from your account to their account... and no idea what this taxes would be... --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

As a developper you authorize google to offer a the refund for 48h, but they only offer a 24h to the buyer. They are free to change this policy for the buyer as long as it is not longer than 48h. (They can also limit to 2h if they want) - Google is not responsible for billing disputes arising from purchases on Android Market. compared to the dev distribution agreement which says Products sold for less than $10 may be automatically charged back to the Developer... so what is it, do Google do auto chargebacks or is it all down to the developer? I do not know how it works exactly, but looks like it means that : - from the user point of view, they can't dispute the payment directly with google. - But if google is refused a payment (refund required from the bank ?), they will just charge back the developper. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
