Android :: How To Fund An Open Source Project?
Feb 11, 2010
As a thesis for my graduation I'm going to start an open source project: My idea is to port a complete set of mathematical libraries to Android, to perform numeric and symbolic operations, in the form of a programmable calculator like matlab or sage. I want to release this project under GPL, because I believe that ideas need to be free to work, but I also know that i will spend a lot of money to buy multiple device to do debug and fine tuning. I thought about selling the prepacked app on the market for 0.99, while giving the source to compile on the site for free. It would be like a small tax on laziness. What do you think? How do you think I could fund this project?

Trying to build Android open source project on Ubuntu 10.04 (on VMware Player).
I followed the instructions at this link (and it said to use sun-java5 JDK 1.5 which takes some fishing to find for Ubuntu) -
http://source.android.com/source/download.html
Got 299 compile errors. Wondering if the direction to use JDK 1.5 is out of date? Some of the errors are as follows (and many similar) -
CODE:.............................

It appears the build instructions for Android open source project are out of date as they say to use JDK 1.5 but the master branch now depends on JDK 1.6. More info at this link:

Is it possible to include other Java source projects in Eclipse into an Android project? Normally for a regular Java project you do this by adding the other project to the build path and including it in the Project References. This same approach lets the code compile, but when the app is deployed to the emulator, it throws a VerifyError when I try and instantiate classes from my other project. Is this possible with the Android SDK? Do you have to build them to jars and include them inside your Android project like this? I know this works, but just involves more steps to do this.

There is an option to create an Android JUnit Project.As far as I am aware the other way is to create a folder in the same project called test which contains the same package name as the existing project.What are the differences between these two methods.

I'm trying to import an Android project into my Eclipse workspace, using existing source code. When I point Eclipse to my existing source location, it doesn't populate the Build Target area on the New Android Project dialog. Why isn't it letting me pick a build target?

I'm completely new to Eclipse/Java/Android programming, so this might sound like a dumb question, but I can't open the project I was working on last week. it's the "HelloWorld" project.I'm very familiar with Visual Studio so I've been looking for something like a project file/solution or a way to open a directory in Exlipse, but I'm having no luck and am completely lost.

I haven't seen many open source android apps yet. Can I make my app gpl open source just like that? Or do I have to include legal statements regarding the Android code that my app is using?

Where is the best place to host an Open Source project for an Android app? I am thinking about setting my app eTools free into an open source license. I want to know the best place to host that project. I will probably go with code.google.com but wanted to hear what others have done.

I am currently working on an open source collection of Android APIs that will be collected into a toolkit. Essentially, this toolkit is intended to ease coding pains for developers by simplifying things such as network operations, file operations, etc..
I already have a bunch of things planned, such as PHP POST and GET operations, POP3, IMAP, and SMTP operations, File management operations (creating files, downloading files, parsing files, etc...). What other kinds of operations do you all think could be simplified or even just want an alternative to?

How to open project with eclipse. ALL books on android cover "how to create a NEW project" but none of them cover "how to OPEN an existing one", and they provide source code which I would like to try but I cant open their source code... so after months I am still in the first chapter
how to open an existing project (android) with eclipse, project I have not created but downloaded from a book source. I've noticed the interface for creating a new project has change, before people said "use create project from existing source". well that didn't work on that time and now the create window does not even have that option
I managed to "import" one project but it doesnt work anymore turns out all projects get the name "MainActivity" so that works only once

Currently we are working on a free and open source NFC software implementation. The hardware requirements are only one (low-power consuming) chip and an antenna. The corresponding API and software is mostly developed and already working on several NFC devices out there.

Today is quite a big day to me. After all the work, studies and sleepless nights that I've been through, I've decided to share all that with the community opening the source of Phonebook Sharing. We have been chosen by the Android powered users as well as by Google as one of the ADC's Top 20 Social Networking applications. This application explores and makes use of many many features available by the platform (Android 1.5 / 1.6) as well as custom components/features that the platform does not provide yet, such as ListView pagination. Not just the Android client but also the J2EE server, I've made available quite a few interessting things such as Video Streaming and EJB3 stuff. I've also built a fake server that responds to all the request events made by the android client therefore you will be able to run client/ server and see how the communication goes. I'm still wrapping up the project building some documentation on our Wiki section.

I need to use some open source code with GPL3. As usual I don't want to open source code for full application.
Now what I understand is if I make two separate process one with my main application code and other as a service or something with Open source library then in that case I have to open source code only for the other one.
Now the question is what is the best way to do so in Android. Suppose My Main App is A Open Source code is B. So A will give some data to B. B will process this and sends data back to A. B may not need to have any UI.
1. Is it possible to install 2 seperate applications / processes from one APK? 2. What is the best way ?Should B be a service? How will be the communication between A and B ? 3. Is it possible to run/call B from A?

I am following the following article to setup eclipse project for Android source
http://source.android.com/using-eclipse
But what should I set my eclipse output folder for my project to be? If I just use the .classpath file as it is in the development/ide directory, eclipse tries to compile the whole project everytime I change 1 line in 1 file. I am not sure why this is happening?

Just wondering how folks are publishing to the Market. Is there an open source reader program/application I can use to encode a book to a specific format then upload it to the Market? How does Android ensure that there isn't a copyright violation going on?

Basically im looking to make a type of "search and opens a custom page" type app, such as when you type in a word (maybe adding in suggestions to what you are typing) , and when you click the word you desire, it opens a page made by myself with data on it.
I found an opensource of a dictionary, sounds lame, but it's a generally close idea to what i would like to create.
My question: What part of this code would i edit? and what exactly would i put at that location? also, how do I create a custom page for it to go to when it click the said word ?

I am setting up an open source 3D game engine for android. What license should we use? Thought we'd go with something like BSD or maybe GPL/LGPL, but getting confused about it. Want a license that helps developers - doesn't hinder them - and an engine that's as open as possible.

In my app, I'm taking advantage of a web-based API (the Sunlight Labs API) that requires an API Key.The project is also open source, hosted on Github. I want to avoid committing my API key into the codebase.I'd be fine with creating some other .xml file of special string values, and git-ignoring that file (while providing a .xml.example file to copy into its place), but I don't know the best way of doing that with the Android SDK.
