Android :: How Udates / Upgrades For Each APP?
Sep 9, 2009
I bought a few apps in the Market and in some cases I noticed that the developers charged for updates. I would like to know if this practice is admitted and fair. I also would like to know if it is possible to have a clear notice about how udates/upgrades FOR EACH APPLICATION are dealt with in terms of charges to your credit card when you buy in the Market. I think this is essential if we want to improve the Market, put some order and make sure you can control what you pay once you establish a relationship with third parties through the Market and eventually guarantee the success of the platform. Are there any rules for developers/sellers in the Market in this respect? Can we read them?

My app schedules an alarm,with the alarm scheduled, what happens if I release a new version of my app, and the user upgrades the app? Will this alarm be removed? Or will it be left untouched, and fired as expected?

1. How do OS upgrades work. Can any android device easily upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6 or even 2.1? or are these issued by the manufacturer, thus we have to wait until they're ready?
2. Are android apps compatible with all android devices? I've heard that Archos 5 doesn't support all android apps and the Camangi device has its own app market (Camangi Market - Apps). Would apps from the official android market work on any android device? What's the point of Camangi having it's own app market?

I read that the AlarmManager looses all registered intents if case the application that registered those intents is upgraded.What is the correct approach to re-register those intents considering the user does NOT start the application after upgrading it?

Last time I checked if you set your default browser to say Dolphin Browser it caused some issues with updates of apps and the market. Does anyone know if this has been addressed or if setting your default browser to a 3rd party still creates update issues with other applications?

I'm getting some messages from my users that when they go to download an upgrade for my paid app, it just sits and downloading forever and does nothing.

Is there an easy to use and Free Android Upgrade App that upgrades the Android OS like from 4.0.2 to newest 4.2.2 while keeping settings and personal data and installed apps. Seems like a common sense thing since everyone expects this on Desktop OS updates right? why not with Android.

Since the alleged 2.1 rollout is this Friday, what will it include? Should I wait to buy Swype, or will it come out with something similar?

I want to have a free version and a premium version of the same application. When people buy the application, I want them to be able to "upgrade" without losing their data, i.e. the premium version should install over the free version.I want to use the same code base and just switch a setting to build the premium version.
Andoid Market does not let me convert a free app to a paid app, so the trivial option is not available.I am curious if someone has tried this successfully. How does Android Market identify an application - will it think that the premium version is a different app and just install it in parallel?

I'm wondering if it is possible for a firmware update to increase the current 15fps video recording. (I believe it's 15fps) Don't get me wrong the quality is watchable, but I'm just wondering if it is potentially possible for the firmwares (or custom) to actually up the framerate a tad?

I'm looking to buy a Samsung Galaxy S (the Vibrant from T-mobile) without a plan and just use it over wifi. I'm incredibly interested in the Froyo update coming "soon," but was wondering if I'll be able to install it via wifi, or if I'll need to activate a plan in order to get it. Anyone know?

I just switched from the Palm pre to the samsung moment and love it so far. One thing i dont like though is the navigation, even though they are both sprint navi. the moment is so much slower at getting an adress and routing you to that adress. It wouldnt be that big of a deal for me but like i stated in a different post i am a police officer and came to a new district and am getting to know the area so when a priority job comes out it takes me a while to input the adress and get routed there as with the pre it was pretty much instantanious. I really dont want to go out and buy a stand alone navigation so can any of you guys help me. Are there any better apps or upgrades for the navigation?

I am forced to open a new topic, as one of the SE member stated to open it to get it answered. Sounds funky, right? I am reading every post that is getting flooded here in the SE Community Talk, and believe me, 95% is about Problems. 4% are expecting to get it fixed sooner or later. 1% are satisfied. With this we can figure out how much customers SE has collected by selling his product. This discussion is only to list the Problem in points and not in summary or paragraph styles. Let SE and other XDA developers look into this and make appropriate patches or upgrades to get it all fixed. We can number the problem in series in Red (spoon feeding SE), so that SE knows what to handle in priority. [once the problem listed is over, let us also list the benefits of SE in Green to make ourselves and SE happy too]
Having said this, let me begin the list I am facing:
1. Low Call Volume
2. Feeble Sound output
3. Poor indoor camera
4. Camera outputs blurs
5. Video outputs blurs
6. No live wallpapers (animating)
7. Latest apps/games not supporting 1.6
8. Picking the call 'always' by swiping is awkard
9. Dialing a number from Contact has become a long process
10. When ear-phone is plugged, ringtone does not ring in earphone
11. Not supporting Java apps (mchek, ICICI Bank)
12. Not supporting paid apps in Market (india)
13. Cant use 'enter' in default messaging (sends it). Using other apps (chomp/ handcent/...) has the option to line break SMS
14. Email signature not possible in default Email app. (need to rely on K9 Mail)
15. Moxier mail lies idle (those who do not have exchange server). Can't even uninstall it.
16. Apps gets installed in phone memory
17. Name gets wrongly geo-tagged
1. Love Timescape
2. Love Mediascape
3. Love big screen
4. Love plenty of apps
5. Fast performance
6. Good browser
7. Good capacitive touch

Like the rest we are waiting for Epic release. Some of us are stuck with our phones. Some can upgrades. But for those that want to upgrade to the Epic are you paying out of pocket? Are you able to upgrade now? Is your upgrade in October like many of or September? What will you do? Has Sprint ever given you an early upgrade and if so by how far from your actual upgrade date?

It will save a lot of coding if I am able to make a breaking change to my Android application. Instead, they will have to download a clean install and visit a URL to reinitialise the application data.
According to the documentation, "if the package name and signing certificate do not match those of the existing version, Market will consider it a new application and will not offer it to users as an update." This would allow me to publish a new version of the application without the user being able to accidentally upgrade and break the application.
If I do upload a new version of my application with a different signing certificate, will the application appear in the application store twice? If so, is there any way to prevent users from downloading the old application?

How would a phone like the Samsung I7500 upgrade its firmware when running on a non google partner carrier? I don't see any kind of manual upgrade options available.

I'm trying to open a dialog window, but every time I try to open it it throws this exception:
CODE:.................
I'm creating it by calling showDialog with the display's id. The onCreateDialog handler logs fine and I can step through it without an issue, but I've attached it since it seems like I'm missing something:
CODE:............
Is there something missing from this? Some questions have talked about having this problem when creating a dialog from onCreate, which happen because the activity isn't created yet, but this is coming from a call from a menu object, and the appContext variable seems like it is correctly populated in the debugger.

I'm writing an application which connects to a back office site. The backoffice site contains a whole slew of JavaScript functions, at least 100 times the average site. Unfortunately it does not load them, and causes much of the functionality to not work properly. So I am running a test. I put a page out on my server which loads the FireBugLite javascript text. Its a lot of javascript and perfect to test and see if the Android WebView will load it. The WebView loads nothing, but the browser loads the Firebug Icon. What on earth would make the difference, why can it run in the browser and not in my WebView? Any suggestions.
More background information, in order to get the stinking backoffice application available on a Droid (or any other platform except windows) I needed to trick the bakcoffice application to believe what's accessing the website is Internet Explorer. I do this by modifying the WebView User Agent.Also for this application I've slimmed my landing page, so I could give you the source to offer me aid. package ksc.myKMB;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.Dialog;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuInflater;
import android.view.MenuItem;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class myKMB extends Activity {
I already have JavaScript on the web browser on, the problem is the web view is acting to different from the web browser.

1- Does Android Browser (Éclair code base) support the "plug-in" or not?
2- Why "Google Gears" support is removed from the clair code base?
I searched the forum and came to know that earlier version of the Android does not support it at all? Here is the link for that, but this query asked in Dec'2008.

At first,I have a database created by using Ruby on rails.I just already implement insert function(HTTPPost) in my Android Application and it's work.But I don't know how to retrieve specific record from my databases and insert it back to specific record in Android (Like edit function in RoR)This is my insert code :
private void insertComment() {DefaultHttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();HttpPost post = new HttpPost("http://10.10.3.87:3000/comments");
// Configure the form parameters
List<NameValuePair> nvps = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>();
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("comment[content]", t_comment.getText().toString();
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("comment[id_account]", "1"));
nvps.add(new BasicNameValuePair("comment[id_place]", Integer.toString(position)I really try many ways out but it doesn't work and it takes very long time to fight with this piece of code. Actually, I really don't know how to specify RowID to HTTPPost.

I released updates of my apps yesterday and they are being hidden from android 1.5 and 1.6 phones.
This is due to a Market bug which hides apps with bluetooth permissions from android 1.5 and 1.6.
Come on Google fix the market. We spend countless hours making are apps work on ALL android versions and now you do this...
This issue has been raised since June, but has only affected me since i made an update to the market yesterday.

I'd like to add a menu option to the Android camera app. Is this possible to do using the current SDK? I know I need to add an intent-filter tag in my activity. But I don't know what I should put in the mime type. I want to be able to process the live camera previews if the user selects the menu option. So what do I put into the type tag of the intent-filter? Also I suppose I won't be using ALTERNATIVE or SELECTED-ALTERNATIVE for the category as I want to deal with the whole intent?

I was wondering if the market checks if the application can be installed on the device. For example, if I have an Android 1.6 and if I try to install an application with :"<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />" on its manifest. What will happend ?
