    Arguably the worst part in playing around with Android is its insistence to put that ugly title bar above everything I do as a default to Activities. Thankfully, the framework allows one to change this behavior.This post is going to explore the ways in which we can create custom title bars and more importantly just how far we can push the limits.

Android Rises in Mobile Web Usage, iPhone Stagnates, Declines - 0 views

  • Worldwide, it doesn't look so bad for Apple yet; it's still the king of the hill by a long shot, steady at about 50%. Android is making inroads, though, now accounting for almost a quarter of the world's mobile web usage.
  • And now we get to the interesting part: the United States. The top-notch Android phones have been available in the US for longer than in other countries, and carriers there have been pushing them longer. This shows: in the US, Android has almost overtaken the iPhone OS (which excludes the iPod Touch!) in mobile web usage - 42% vs. 44%.

  • In November 2009, the iPhone OS accounted for 55% of the mobile web usage in the US; now it's down to 44%. In the same timespan, Android grew from 27% to 42%. The US can be seen as a test bed for the rest of the world, since Android hasn't been pushed as much outside of the US as it has been inside of the US. In Apple's defence, though, the arrival of the iPad in the coming weeks may reverse the declining trend of the iPhone OS. And, as noted, the iPod Touch is not included in these figures. All in all, it's clear that Android is no longer just a speck on the horizon. Google's mobile operating system is a serious threat to Apple's iPhone, which could further explain why Apple decided to sue HTC. Jobs might be drinking coffee with Schmidt in a nicely staged press moment, but in the meantime, the '80s and '90s are happening all over again for Apple: the PC business model beating the Mac one.

How to update the GUI in Push/C2DM sample from advandroid book? - cw-android | Google G... - 0 views

android C2dm Broadcast Notification

shared by Vincent Tsao on 18 Sep 10 - No Cached
  • > Now I just want to update the GUI from this method. > Can I somehow call a method in PushEndpointDemo.java? No, for two reasons: 1. Because C2DMReceiver is a manifest-registered BroadcastReceiver and therefore has no access to any activities 2. There might not be an activity, since you have no control over the timing of when the C2DM message is received (e.g., the user pressed BACK, the user pressed HOME) > Do I need a Broadcast Intent to do this? Possibly. -- If you want to update an activity or else ignore the message, have C2DMReceiver send out a private broadcast, picked up by a receiver registered via registerReceiver() in the activity -- If you want to update an activity or else raise a notification, have C2DMReceiver send out an ordered broadcast, as described here: http://commonsware.com/blog/2010/08/11/activity-notification-ordered-... -- If you want to update a database, call startActivity() on an IntentService, and have it do the database I/O, plus possibly broadcast an Intent to update an activity/raise a notification.

android hosts emulator

shared by Vincent Tsao on 02 Sep 10 - Cached
  • [通用部分] 如果開了一個以上的模擬器的話請自行加adb參數 0a. 先adb pull /system/etc/hosts hosts抓回local來修改。 0b. 在原本的 127.0.0.1 localhost 加上新的行，寫入你需要的對應如 192.168.1.15 mytestsite，存檔。 1. adb remount (才不會發生Read-only file system錯誤) 2. adb push hosts /system/etc/hosts
  • [2.0.1, 2.1 only] 這兩個版本會在這邊丟出錯誤訊息，分別為 failed to copy 'hosts' to '/system/etc/hosts': No space left on device failed to copy 'hosts' to '/system/etc/hosts': Out of memory 解決方法是，開啟模擬器時不要直接從 AVD Manager介面開，請下指令: $ emulator -avd youravdname -partition-size 128 接著再對這個模擬器使用上面的 hosts修改大法就不會出現錯誤了。 partition size的單位是MB，預設似乎是64。從adb shell 用 df 指令觀察的結果，/system 和 /data 都會被這個設定成這邊指定的值。而1.5, 1.6 的 image 因為剛好沒超過 64MB，還剩下一點空間，所以 hosts 還寫得進去，而 2.x 的 image 有 七萬多K，mount之後 /system 這個 partition 看起來就是全滿，剩下空間 0K。因此 hosts變肥後無法寫入，真的是因為partition爆了。事實上正常的手機確實也不需要留空間給user hack…模擬器還讓我們調參數已經很偷笑了，可惜AVD Manager 的 Start 沒地方可以設定 partition size。若有此需求的話只好麻煩一點手動下指定開emulator囉。

mobile app review

shared by Vincent Tsao on 12 Nov 10 - No Cached
  • 如果你看过主站介绍 Kik 的文章，一定对 Kik 用户的快速增长感到惊讶，这个功能简单的消息软件在短时间野蛮生长,在发行的 15 天内，用户人数从 0 增长到 100 万人
  • Kik 这种 Push IM 将快速消灭传统的短信，尤其是它把触角伸进你的通讯录之后
  • Kik 最初的目的是一个革命性的（很酷的）音乐分享、远程操作服务，但是 Kik 团队很快发现他们利用这些技术创造了一个信息交流应用，于是他们暂时放弃了音乐服务的打算，将所有多余的东西抛弃，专心做了一个快速、可靠的短消息应用。 Kik 的 CEO Ted Livingston 告诉 BGR，由于人数增长过快，他们不得不雇佣一架飞机，给数据中心增加服务器以保证服务的正常运行

  • 通讯录的那个设置是在开倒车。 Kik的魅力就是只要知道你的名字就可以发送短消息；如果非要加入好友才能发短消息，魅力荡然无存

android developer income report

shared by Vincent Tsao on 24 Dec 10 - No Cached
  • Moreover I am not one of top developers nor any of my apps have been promoted by Android Market. I am just an one among of thousands of Android developers with not to well known apps. And what may be really surprising all my apps are free as Google do not allow developers from my country (Poland) to sell apps via Android Market!
  • So keep in mind these facts: None of my apps has been ever promoted in Top of Android Market I am providing only free apps (mostly due of Android Market limitations) Even if I would be able to sell apps I would not use it as main income source… (I believe that you still can make more from ads…)
  • X-Ray Scanner (over 268 000 downloads) Cracked Screen (over 182 000 downloads) Virtual Drums (over 20 000 downloads) Daily Beauty Tips (over 11 000 downloads) Don’t push it (over 6 500 downloads) WP Stats (over 4 000 downloads)
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • I have started to learn Android Development on April 2010. My first application was ready to be published on May. And it bring me first few dollars… I was not satisfied as I have been expecting that this app (WP Stats) will be really popular… Unfortunately it wasn’t… Anyway I have published a few more apps that got a lot more popularity… So here is my total income breakdown: May 2010 – $4.92 June 2010 – $138.87 July 2010 – $538.26 August 2010 – $920.00 September 2010 – $1545.45 October 2010 – $1059.31
  • October looks to be lower in earning but it happened only because I have not been updating any of my apps in this month (I have been moving to new house and had no time for it…). So as you may see income has not been high on the begging but with each month with regular updates and new apps it has been growing very rapidly!
