Android :: Is Group Moderated?

Is this group moderated?
What do you guys think about Google officially making an alternate/auxiliary app market that would be available along side the present official market, but which would only host inspected or "approved" apps that were proven to be useful innovative and well written? It could be called something like "Android Top Picks" (not very catchy, I know..) or "Android Feature Market", "Android Market Pro", etc I personally think this is a great idea. It wouldnt violate the principles of open source and at the same time it would raise the bar for developers to aspire to as it would create a prestigious reputation for their apps and certainly increase their sales. Along with this it would create a thinned down selection of quality apps that users could focus on for superior performance. Things that could be indirectly implemented through this medium are inspection to see that apps dont inefficiently use battery life and also that they are made with the idea of being compatible across various platforms and devices in mind. I think this would encourage the development of quality competitive apps which in the end would only benefit users, developers, and Android OSs end-user marketing compatibility on all sides. Please vote and let people know what you think about this idea.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have long had my WAP pages built and had my URL launchers built by an outsourced group in India. I now have a requirement to update my .apk files to 2.2 as well as build 6 additional .apk files that are made up of 6 completely different URL launchers to other WAP sites. I have successfully set up my Java and SDK environment My questions are: What is the best recommendation the group can suggest as a starting point? How do I open the .apk file in my eclipse environment to make the changes necessary? The Android Market says the following when I attempt to upload my .apk file: [quote] Market does not accept apks signed with the debug certificate. Create a new certificate that is valid for at least 50 years. Market requires that the certificate used to sign the apk be valid until at least October 22, 2033. Create a new certificate. Market requires the minSdkVersion to be set to a positive 32-bit integer in AndroidManifest.xml. [/quote]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI notice that there's been a bit of controversy in the last couple of days about off-topic posting on this list. As the list home page says, it is intended to be a place to "Discuss developing Android applications using the Android framework". While I find the talk about the Market and wider issues very interesting, I do think it would be better placed on the -discuss list, so that this list can be more focussed on technical issues to do with developing using the SDK.
I wonder if the reason why this list attracts a lot of off-topic stuff is the name? I suspect many people don't see the description and just interpret "android-developers" to be for discussion of issues affecting developers. Perhaps if it was named "android-sdk" (to match the new android-ndk list), that would improve things?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a query that is making use of GROUP BY so that the results are grouped by a date column. My question is this:
When I move through the cursor to get the results of the query, how can I get the multiple items associated with each group into my vector? For example, I want to get BOTH "Item X" and "Item Y" for October 16, 2010. Currently, I get them each separately.
Here is my code:
CODE:..........
So, when I get the results from my Vector, I will get:
October 12, 2010
- Item X
October 12, 2010
- Item Y
And I want:
October 12, 2010 - Item X, Item Y
Yes, I do have to change my Vector to support multiple items, but hopefully you get what issue I'm facing...
Just use findViewById(R.id.layout_2)

View 2 Replies View Relatedhow to send out emails to a group, without searching for each name individually. I wasn't able to find any answers, but did find a few people in the same boat as myself. So, I've stumbled across the answer: Contacts Groupu. I pulled it from the market, and it syncs with the groups you have in your Google Contacts. When you go to view a group, you can toggle to "check all", then hit email and and watch it plug each email address into the "to" field within the native Gmail app.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am taking a marketing research class and our topic is on smartphones. We need to do a focus group for this project and the report is due VERY soon. We had much difficulty finding people with android phones here in vancouver so it would be much appreciated if you guys can help! The focus group will likely take place on msn either on Friday or Saturday around 5pm. If you are not available for a focus group, I can always interview you individually through skype/msn/phone/email. You can contact me at my email: mmi@sfu.ca or reply to this thread!
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm adding a new contact using the 2.0 Contacts Contract APIs and I was just wondering if this is a safe way to get the "My Contacts" group to set the group membership for my new contact. Or is there a better more standard way to get it? I'm using the literal string "System Group: My Contacts" when I query the Groups table to get the source row for the My Contacts group. I found this constant by poking around in the debugger, but It's not documented anywhere that I could find, so I don't know if it's the right thing to use. Is there an actual constant somewhere that I should be using to find the "My Contacts" group? Code...

I am a coach of a soccer team and would like to send out a text message to each member of the team but only do it once rather than send each person one. As I mentioned before I do not use texting often so I am not sure if I can do this.

I also subscribe to the Android Discuss group. I clicked on a post in today's email update and got a message saying "Cannot find android- discuss ... There is no group named android-discuss". There were a couple of threads I was watching.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI found this today. Since Sherpa doesn't seem to be available anymore there is hope that they are improving it or making it open for all. I just installed it on my Eris and look forward to using it soon. All they ask is you fill out some basic info and then you have to manually install it to your phone. I have a excellent link for that but seeing how I am the rookie around here I doubt I need to give that tip.
