Not all the packages have license information and I am not sure if those that do have that on the manifest but it doesn't seem like it. therefore, is there a way to extract the license of all the packages installed on a Android system?

i work on custom Application Manager and try to get the disk usage of installed package. So PackageManager.getpackageSizeInfo was removed from SDK on 0.9->1.0 update android.content.pm. PackageStats(String pkgName)(cacheSize, codeSize, dataSize) returns always "0" Size of phys. file (java.io.File) in "/data/app" seems wrong/not completely. Has anybody any solution to get the total disc space used by an installed package?

They usually go like: com.example.prototype(Where the folder prototype cotains the runnable files)Trying to use the intent function to launch an app within an app.Was told putting this code in the onclicklistener method for the button would allow this, yet to test it successfully. I reckon it works, just need to figure out package name of the app I wanna launch.Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);i.addCategory( Intent.CATEGORY_LAUNCHER); i.setPackage("com.otherapp.package"); startActivity(i);Want to press a button, to launch the "com.otherapp.package"

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to calculate the size of an installed Android application/package. I can't find this information in neither ApplicationInfo nor PackageInfo objects. From the ApplicationInfo I can get the path for the data and the app itself. Data is a directory structure, but when attempting to read it recursivly I get a nullpointer. Is there any better way of doing it? Any sample code?

I've placed the subclass in a package called android.widget. Why can't I access any of the package-private member fields? I notice that the compiler says they "cannot be resolved," rather than not being accessible. Does this have something to do with how Android.jar is built?

I re-installed Exchange for Android 2.X, but I can't find the license key for it in the market to re-install that. Anyone know why I can't find it? I figured I could just re-download it since I've already purchased it.

My question is do I need to buy a license if I publish my application as paid app in market? What is my app is free?
Just did a little search on google with my paid app name, I found these:

Someone bought the priced app from market with the "rooted" phone and copy the apk file, then post on the websites for others to download.
Should Android team give a better way to protect the priced apps?
For example, encrypt the apk with the unique device hardware id for each download request. And verify the key before execution. So the apk can only be used on this phone.
There should be much better and complicated ways. but this is the basic idea.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy current situation is that I have a phone with 2 camera apps on it, stock and camera FV-5.
Camera FV-5 is slower than the stock camera, so I only use it in situations which I need manual control.
Whenever I open whatsapp and try to send a photo, the app asks me which camera I want to use, with no option to always use stock. I don't want camera FV-5 to exist as an option, as I will open it if I want to use it.
Is there a way to remove an app from the list so that my phone does not recognise camera FV-5 as a camera?

I wanna activate Android Calendar app(fullsource/packages/apps/Calendar) in device. however Android Calendar app don't activate in device and emu. I think it is license problem. But, I don't know that get a calendar license. Also I wanna know step, cost, period about license. Additionally, I wonder if Calendar license assosicated with google Map, Google gmail, Google You tube !
I have a query:
Is LGPL'd code compatible with Android applications? Or are there any gotchas!
I have an Android app and some company is interested in using part of it and rebranding it for its customers. One of the options would involve licensing the code to them for use in this specific case. Would you recommend doing that as a good option? What is the cost of licensing code in comparison to the cost of the original development. Should the license be for any use of the code, for using the codebase/year?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on an Android app that's licensed under Apache Software License 2.0. As recommended in best practice, I would like to display the license to the end user for acceptance before proceeding. However, the ASL text is large and I'm not sure whether it's a good idea to show the entire license.
I would like to know if there are any recommendations for apps under ASL on what license text to use (perhaps an abbreviated version of ASL)? Pointers to actual license text would be quite helpful. At a minimum, I was thinking to show the "Disclaimer of Warranty" section and for the whole license include the link to ASL site.
I'm trying to implement The Android LicenseChecker in my app, and I've followed the instructions almost verbatim from the developer site. Everything seems hooked up correctly, but every single time I get the "Check timed out." message. I increased the timeout value to 30 seconds, I'm logged into my device (which has the market app installed) with my publisher account login gmail address.
I set the test response to Licensed. I saved (but didn't publish) a sample app to test with. When that didn't work, I tried using an app that is already published and just rebuilding the apk locally to include the LVL implementation. I definitely have 3g connectivity. I can browse the web on the device and other connected apps are working correctly.
1. When the "copy protection" checkbox was first introduced on Android Market, I heard about a lot of issues with people not being able to download etc. Have those issues been resolved now? If I turn on copy- protection on an app with over 10K active users, do I risk a major rebellion?
2. I'd like to sell my app on other stores like slideme, andappstore and handango. Since some of these just redirect the user to your own site to download the app, there needs to be a license key that authenticates the user and unlocks his app. I saw that andappstore has a framework for that (not sure if that will only work with them or is a generic solution). I'm looking for a free, generic licensing solution. Is there one that you know of or use? My concern is to not throw in a wrench in the process of user download and use of the app, where I start getting a ton of emails from people whose keys arent working or asking for new keys etc, where license support turns into a full-time activity.
How do you manage your activation on android market since this crappy market doesn't offer anything for dynamic licensing as other store like handango, mobihand app world etc. How do you protect your full copy from piracy?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to integrate the LVL to my app, and I followed the 'Licensing Your Applications' document [1].
For some reason I'm receiving the ERROR_NOT_MARKET_MANAGED error, although my app (package: org.jraf.android.logcatlivewallpaper) is indeed available in the Market.
I suppose I made a mistake is on my side but all I did is follow the document (I used the ServerManagedPolicy and the AESObfuscator), so I don't see what I could have done wrong.
I can't import the License Verification Library to the workspace. In the Eclipse wizard I click "File > import" but no Android option available, if I choose normal Java project then it doesn't work because it has no Android api reference. How to do?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just finished reading the docs on Google's new Android License Verification Library. I often give out free copies of my applications to beta testers. I don't, however, want the beta testers to share the app with their friends. What's the best way to give out a device-specific license free version? From what I can tell I will need to create a custom policy and then maintain a list of authorized devices/accounts in my own backend that I can check. Is that what other devs are doing?

Does the Android License Verification Library support a device logged in to multiple Google accounts?
Does it use the first Google account to determine who purchased an app?
I'm using Google Code to host my application code, its convenient and the SVN repository means I don't have to worry about backups. When you create a project on there you need to select a license, I chose GNU GPL v3. By doing so, does that prevent me from selling my application on the Android market place?
