Android :: Application Distribution For Closed User Group
Feb 3, 2009
A customer asked me to create an android application for their internal use. Essentially it would some sort of mobile terminal for a special chemistry database.It doesn't make any sense, to distribute this application via "Android Market" since it is only useful for special users and payment wont be done per installation but for the whole contract.Is there any other way to distribute android apps besides the market? Maybe by putting them on a web page? Any hints appreciated since i couldn't find anything on the web.

When our systems go down here at work (email) our phones stop working for email communication, and I have staff that freak out when this happens.My CFO would like me to send a TEXT to all our staff (Teams) that are in the field to let them know our Internet is down. Now all these Teams have their phone numbers in our Global Address book of Exchange.But I would like to be able to access it easily on my phone as selecting a group and it sends everyone in that group a text.Been working on this for the last 2 hours and can't find a way to do this.I also tried adding a separate group for contacts in Outlook 2010 for Exchange, and it won't show up on my EVO either.

could you explain me steps for android app distribution.I can sign it and publish to Android market. But can I offer clients to load this application without market? e.g from company web site? if yes, can I still use self-signed certificate?

I've only distributed a few apps by sending .apk files around.I was wondering how Android Market prevents users from distributing a paid application to other people.

I am writing an application that listens to phone calls and perform some tasks when phone call arrives. The Application contains one activity which includes 2 buttons 'Start' and 'Stop' (where starts register the listener and stops unregister it - see code below).
The problem starts when the application is closed ( onDestroy is called ). If the user pressed on the start button and exit from the application the listener still working (which is the expected behavior) but from now it is impossible to unregister the listener since launching new instance of the application create new instance of phoneListener.
My question is:
1.Is there better way to implement my requirement?
2.Can I save the phoneListener object and reload It on application creation?

In an Android application, we usually got the "Force Closed" error if we didn't get the exceptions right. How can I restart my application automatically if it force closed? Is there any specific permission is used for this?

I'm writing a little app that uses GPS coordinates and I have a toast that pops up and displays my current GPS coordinates (and updates them as they change).It works fine but when I close the app the toast remains and covers whatever I do on the homescreen (and continues to update the GPS coordinates).How do I get it to cancel when I close/hide the application?

I have an application with main view having a search button. On clicking the search button, search results are displayed in a text view. When I hit the back button at this view, instead of navigating to the previous screen, application itself gets closed. Could anybody please let me know how to go back to previous screen.

I am currently running CL14 stock with Open Home and I wanted to let you security conscious folks know about a security issue I discovered. I hit the end button and pulled up my phones lock screen. Decided to test the new emergency dialer and when I pulled that up Open Home had force closed. When I hit end it returned me to the main screen w/o me entering my combination. I assume this could happen with any force closed app so although it's a rare issue that something FCs in the background it is possible and is a security issue. Just a heads up.

When I exit out of an app the screen is blank for 30 seconds or so before my widgets and icons reappear. I had it back in November 2009 and I still have it after 2.0.1 and 2.1 and 2.2 and the other 2.2. I see a million threads here and on other forums asking about it. Just checking in to see if there was ever a solution discovered. Like all of you, I can always bring them back with a hard or soft reset.
I'm just wondering if anyone has found a way to prevent it from happening in the first place. I assume that it's related to available memory or processor or something, so every once in a while I think "I'm going to streamline this thing and give it all kinds of available memory" and it doesn't work. I kill all widgets and go to vanilla wallpaper and it still happens. Anyone figure this thing out?

I have a group of 5 friends whom are trying to stay in contact with each other. Heres the situation:
Me
Android
Free Texting to Verizon
Carrier: Verizon
Dara
Android
Unlimited Texting
Carrier: Verizon
Spader.................
Now theres some interesting groupchat apps out there. I was looking into using BrightKite... My classmates use it during boring lectures in gradschool. But the problem with BrightKite is that Empty (that is his nickname) does not have free texting to any carrier but verizon, and BrightKite's groupchat # is not verizon. I am in a similar situation, but since I have an android phone I can access the groupchat via that and I don't need to use up my texts.............

I am new to the captivate. I have all my contacts in my phone now, about 300. Is there a way to either group or create groups of them and then set one of those groups up as the contact default? I know some phonebook apps probably do this but are limited in their information. I am looking for the full contact info (with phone numbers) and then isolate those I use frequently into such a group.

Is there a way to code-sign (to allow it to open only on a device with specific ID) your Android app when using ad-hoc distribution (sending app to testers or clients as a subcontractor)?I know I can share apk file pretty easily, but what if I don't want other people to redistribute the app before it is ready? I don't want testers to be able to distribute not finished and buggy version of my app for example. Or I would like to show my client the final version of the app, but not allow them to distribute it until the payment is made.

I am creating an application which connects to the server using username/password and I would like to enable the option "Save password" so the user wouldn't have to type the password each time the application starts. I was trying to do it with Shared Preferences but am not sure if this is the best solution. I would appreciate any suggestion on how to store user values/settings in Android application.

I am wanting to know if a developer has the ability to choose not to display the permissions needed for an app they create. For an example if there is a note taking app in the market that says no permissions needed, but in reality, it does have "internet access"capabilities not shown to the user/downloader, Is it possible for App permissions to be hidden and not displayed to the user? Can someone explain to me the process on assigning and displaying permissions on android apps?

I would like to know if the user is using the application for the first time. I am using SharedPreferences, but I am not sure if I have the right logic. How can I set my isFirstLaunched boolean to true when the user first launches, and then immediately set to false after work has been done?
protected void onStart() {
super.onStart();
if(isFirstLaunch()){
populateDefaultQuotes();
//Save the preferences, isFirstLaunch will now be false
SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences(Constants.PREFS_NAME, 0);....................
