Hey,
If you are a developer with a popular paid app on Android Market but wish
that the customer management was better with Android Market, I'd be
interested in talking with you about doing beta testing for a new app market
concept.
The focus is on managing, communicating with, and understanding the users of

All,
I put together a blog post on some of the issues I had building a 2.x firmware which may be affecting the number of community developers working on AOSP a couple of days ago and it seems reasonably well received (i.e. no one has pointed out any glaring problems with the issues raised).
It's too long to post here in its' entirety, so if you're interested it's at

Looking for a development phone which has D-GPS.
The Bad - this will only work outdoors
The Good - Will not need a phone plan to use A-GPS
Looks like the only phone with D-GPS is the Geeksphone ?
Wonder if this comes with a US based power supply ?

I was watching this Google Goggles prototype showing how taking a
picture of some text can be conveniently translated into whatever
language you specify:

whether to translate the OCR output or not.

I want to buy a Nexus One for my business but I want to develop apps too, do
I need another phone (thinking about a Hero) to develop or can I use the
Nexus one as development phone and everyday phone as well? If I need another
phone to do development, can I use a Hero?
Thanks
Fred

Are there different versions of the Nexus One depending on the country it is
sold in? The HTC spec sheet says the frequencies depend on the operator, but
I guess the hardware is the same. Does it come with different adapters for
the charger?
Thanks

I have posted this before but feel it needs to be said now that
Microsoft has announced a new version of Windows Mobile.
Phone Manufacture's like HTC, Samsung or Motorolla don't have any real
reason to offer ROM upgrades. It cost them money on a device that is
still paying for it self. All the competing phone operating systems

So the other day, my 14month old son grabbed my Motorola Droid (with
Firmware 2.0.1) and ran away from me giggling while mashing on my
phone like crazy. By the time I chased after him and coaxed the phone
away from him, I noticed it was unlocked. I was surprised that he
got it unlocked, so I gave it back to him and watched him unlock it

I am sad because of either of two things:
(1) Google has too much money to waste, and I don't. That makes me
sad.
(2) Google spends their money wisely and only reward a small number of
good developers (say less than 1000) with a Seeding Device. This means
of all the apps out there in the Market, less than 1000 are [A] rated

I've noticed that this "Genwi" guy posts more than 500 apps onto the
Android market. Most of them smell like spam. While I think they
really contribute a significant portion of the alleged growth of
Android apps (wow, over 20000 now), I really get pissed when the "by
date" tab in Market is flooded by this crap.

I am writing a banking web app to work with smart phones, including

Hi,
I trying to use the Qualcomm (libqcamera) Camera HAL to connect to

Hi all,
I have published a few apps that are designed mostly for Android and
Java developers. These are modest apps but I hope that they help some
of you. Let me know what you think.

example when testing your apps. You can also see memory usage.

I enjoyed reading this article, and there were some smart comments.
Some comments seemed less smart, but they revealed a lot of peoples
fears about the platform.

Did anyone else get this? I'm assuming this isn't a phishing attempt

I think this is a great indication of the seriousness of the Device

Developer Labs and the Market Developer giveaway.

Is there any plan to eliminate the requirement to add the "android:"
namespace to attributes in layout files?
In my current project, "android:" prefixes make up a little over 20%
of all of the text in the layout files. And instead of adding value,
they make the files VERY DIFFICULT TO READ AND EDIT. I believe it is
