If the stores do this, they probably say so in their TOS, it seems legally dubious to modify your app without your consent. Kris On Sat, Oct 5, 2013 at 3:09 PM, Richard Schilling coderroa...@gmail.comwrote: It's possible that some stores will modify your app to add some Digital Rights

I guess the problem is, if your location is unavailable, how are you expecting that that will be fixed? This doesn't make any sense, if it's not available, it's not available, Kris On Fri, Oct 4, 2013 at 6:16 AM, HImanshu Mittal himanshu5...@gmail.comwrote: Hello friends, I have just

Re: [android-developers] How to Verifying Correctness of App in Eclipse

So the obvious question that comes to mind is: why do you need to do this within Eclipse, rather than using an Android testing framework. Are you talking about whether or not the user *physically* created the code, rather than testing it actually worked? I would give a word of warning against

Re: [android-developers] Lower level documentation on how Google's backend starter works w/ Android devices

I doubt such a thing exists, because I doubt Google would be very happy with you using their protocol for an app. There are specific clauses in the TOS for Play (at least) that stipulate you can't write apps that could compete with Google apps, under which I presume this use would fall. Kris

Re: [android-developers] Need to Load .a static lib.

Specifically, since app execution happens with the context of a Dalvik VM, it doesn't make any sense to hook in a static library. Your application is not being run as a native process, but rather by proxy of being in the VM. The VM forks from a zygote process, and it makes sense to call

Alljoyn seems to be a helpful API. Doing these p2p BT / wifi overlays is a real pain, and I'd highly recommend against it if possible. Most people sync to a central server which mediates games, but if you feel hell bent on doing it I suppose you could hack it up. (I've made something like this

I agree with Michael. It would be easy, but at the same time it's pretty hard to get background services correct when they need to be constantly available polling the internet. E.g., it's pretty easy to kill battery life doing this. The reason people use GCM is because it does the hard work in
