I do not see a means to put key words or meta tags on an app when publishing it to the android market. Is there a way to do this? Such that if one builds an app for the physical therapy industry a PT an search PT. The current search only seems to search the app title.

On Tuesday, I released my first app to the Android Market. Since then I found a few bugs which I have fixed and uploaded a new version.In the Developer Console, it still shows the version number as the original (v0.8.0) but the last version uploaded is different (v0.9.0).If I check the market on my phone, then the update is not even showing.How long before they show?Can I check if there are any errors with my upload process? Does a different filename for the apk matter?

What do I need to do regarding tax?
1. Should I put all (or half or any fraction of) the earnings aside until the taxman asks me for some money?
2. What about sales in the US, does the same apply?
3. Is it considered income tax?
Suppose you upload a paid app and you want to test if it works correctly when downloaded from Android Market - do you pay for it? Are your own apps free to you? And to download it from the market, do you have to make it visible to the whole world? I tried to upload an app, the uploader accepts it, but when I try to download it from the phone it says "package file was not signed correctly".
It's unacceptable that the uploader checks to see if a file is signed, but it somehow performs *Different* tests than what the phone actually does when it downloads apps. I hope I can debug this further without having to publish my app to test it and make my app momentarily visible to everybody.
I have had a problem with no matter what android phone I have. This has been doing it for quite some time but I dealt with it but last night I lost 12 GB of music so here it is:
Whenever I move music in these situations, it will erase all ID3 Tag information (Artist, Album, etc) and all it has is the file name. I had 2000 songs with artist names and all, but when moved it all became unknown artist. Here are the situations:
Galaxy S3: Moving Music from one folder to another (Like from a Download folder to my music folder on external SD). Or from moving music from internal to external or vice versa.
Optimus G: Moving music from one folder to another on the internal storage (Again, like from a download to music folder).
Evo 4G: Just moving from folder to folder.
All this is done with ES. File explorer. I tried other but they do it too. It can not be device specific because it happens on almost any android. All songs are in MP4/MP3 format and maybe some .wma.
Im tossing up at the moment whether or not to start developing for iPhone or Android. The main thing drawing me towards Android at the moment is that apps are developed using Java, which I like, as opposed to Objective-C, which I hate. Really though, the next thing on my list is to consider the costs. Apple requires you to join their iPhone developer program for $99/year, plus yield 30% of each sale of your app to Apple. I noticed that google charges $25 to register as a developer. I wanted to confirm firstly, is that $25 recurring or is it just one off? Second, are there commisions charged when our apps are purchased, or do we recieve the whole sale price? I also wanted to ask, does google provide an Android emulator that we can use to test applications without actually copying them over to an actual Android device?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI know I can set DEBUG in Android's ADB by typing:
adb shell setprop log.tag.MyTag DEBUG
What I'm wondering is if there is a way to set debug for all my classes that do logging instead of having to type the above multiple times:
adb shell setprop log.tag.MyTag1 DEBUG
adb shell setprop log.tag.MyTag2 DEBUG
adb shell setprop log.tag.MyTag3 DEBUG
adb shell setprop log.tag.MyTag4 DEBUG
Something like:
adb shell setprop log.tag.* DEBUG
I'm using Eclipse for developing, but I'm currently setting the DEBUG through the command line adb.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have my application run on development environment (eclipse - testing using device), then i do right click on my project folder - android tools - export signed application package, then i create new key store and add my information there, then it'll produce the .apk then i put it up on my own webserver (I intend to put it on my own web server and android market place as well) but then, once i try to download my .apk from my testing handset - it said:
"cannot download. the content the content is not supported on this phone"
this is weird, since i do my testing on this same handset as well. so my question are:
- what is the proper way to sign my app so it can be downloaded all the way through my own web server?
but I still can put it up on android market as well? - I have my android market account.
-is there any walk-through for it?
Well Hope someone can give me the answer, I really appreciate your help!
I would like to put the following tag in the manifest file. code...
The question is, how i can read the value of the meta-data tag (myname)?
Do applications have an identifier, that is unique in the market store? And is is possible to query any meta information from the market store about applications, e.g. title and description?

I have a app that uses ads. The ad id is set in the manifest id with a meta-data tag. I want to change this tag when i start the app in some cases (diferent id for some localisations) Can i do this in code?
View 1 Replies View RelatedSince the type is determined automatically by the build system ( booleans, ints, floats and strings ) i wondered if there is any way to force the datatype to string.I tried adding a space at the end ( "5555555555 "), but then the value gets interpreted as 5.5555553E9 float! ).I also tried using getString instead of get, but then null is returned.

I guess I've saved a bunch of jumbled letters as a word does anyone know how to delete words you've saved?
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo is there an easy way to type the word "I'll". I have to upper case the letters then type "I", then switch to the symbols and type ', then back to the letters to type "ll". This just seems way to much for a little word. My BB Tour would recognize so much easier. If there is no easy way to type it, wonder if Froyo will fix it.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIt sucks that you can't delete words that are in the Dictionary. I get so annoyed when I am typing out a word and it puts a totally different word in place. You ever type out one of the days of the week? It ALWAYS puts a (s) at the end! For example I want to say I am having a Super bowl party on Sunday and it will put Sundays. Another thing that drives me crazy I could say "Maybe I will come over later" and it says "Maybe I Will come over later" Why does WILL have to be spelled like a name in this instance? I add lower case "will" to my dictionary but it still reverts back to the other one when I am typing.
