[android-developers] Testing in-app purchases is incompatible with monotonically increasing Android versions

2012-12-15 Thread Keith Wiley
I'm debugging in-app purchases. This requires me to create the app profile on the console and upload the apk (but not necessarily publish it). With an invited test gmail account, I can then test in-app purchases. The problem is, there is no way to upload changes to the app if I have to fix s

[android-developers] In-app purchase: Connection between merchant console and app?

2012-12-17 Thread Keith Wiley
The merchant console offers two ways to undo an order. You can "cancel entire order" or you can "refund some money", that letter often being disabled or otherwise unavailable on recent purchases. When the developer/seller uses each of these options, what should be the corresponding signal back

[android-developers] How to delete app in new console

2012-12-18 Thread Keith Wiley
In the old console, if you delete the last APK, the entire app goes away...for better or worse. However, in the new console there appears to be no way at all to delete an app. Is this correct? Is my console now littered with unintended apps that will persist forever? I have a version of the

I don't think we're having the same conversation here. I'm not talking about anything on the phone at all. I'm talking about the web console Android developers use to manage their apps in Google Play. I'm honestly surprised no one else has chimed in on this discussion. It seems like a legit

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense I suppose. I haven't tried unpublishing a previously published app because I don't have a good candidate at the current time, but I do know that draft or otherwise as-yet unpublished apps offer no obvious method for removal...in stark contrast with the old con

[android-developers] Nexus 7 has no menu button?

I don't have access to a Nexus 7 but I'm getting feedback from users that they can't access the menus in my app...like, at all...which I find perplexing since I use the same standard menus that all Android apps use (including the Android home-screen). If the Nexus 7 doesn't have a relatively o

Right, so since it targets a very old SDK, you're saying they should be able to simply access the menus through an option in the system bar. In other words, these people don't know how to use their tablets; their problem has nothing to do with my app being incompatible with their device, or ev
