convert android app to the G1? - G1 Apps and Games

what steps do you need to take to change a android app to the G1?

What exactly do you mean? Android is the OS and the G1 is the hardware.

did he mean "install" instead of "convert"?

i have a app that a German company made for the android os , early in the year before the G1 came out and i cant just install it like an app i have to change something, I'd like to know what that is?

The app was probably made using an outdated and unsupported version of the Android SDK. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is wait until the developers update it (unless you have the source and are willing to manually review it)

i could post the APK

The thing is, the source code can't be extracted from an .apk file. It's like taking an .exe on windows and then trying to edit the source code of the program itself. So unless the developer updates the program or provides the source, you're SOL.
Sorry.

have you enabled the G1 to install applications that are not from the market?
Settings> applications > unknown sources?
of course, this will allow you to install it, but if it's out of date and the programming needs updating, you're still SOL.

Where can I get Google Maps and HTC PDF Viewer?

Hi
I flashed SenseHero 2.2 ROM which is a pretty good Android 2.1 flash. Unfortunately, it comes without Google Maps and native HTC PDF viewer. Where can I get this apps from? I could not get any answer on SenseHero forums.
Thanks.
You can download Maps from the market.

Thanks for the apk but I get "Application not installed" error even though I enabled unknown sources in application settings.
It's strange I can find Google Maps on Androlib site but it does not appear in Market search. Does Google restrict application based on client country?

Yes some countries do not get all apps. But there is something called Market Enabler,... Have a look for that.
And try these again for PDFViewer,... Put both in the same folder and then try to install again.
Let me know how it goes.

The new files give me the same error. I also tried to install Market enabler and its apk cannot be installed either. Seems like the project is outdated, the authors say they don't support the latest Market version.
I followed these instruction: http://strazzere.com/blog/?tag=pdfviewerapk which say additional libraries should be installed. After I put the libraries in the right place the application installed OK but it won't start. So I guess I will be needing the correct PDFViewer version (for Android 2.1). If anyone has it, please...

ERROR: Application requires API version 8. Device API version is 7 (Android 2.1-update1) looks like you will have to test drive the new froyo for aria if you want to test this unless there is a way to update api on the android, and i doubt it.

and see what all its checking for.
Moved to Themes and Apps, as this is not Development related.
This app is now available in the Android Market.

Is it? I just searched for Blockbuster, didn't find it.
It was published to the Android Market by Blockbuster on accident, apparently it has to be optimized for each device so they pulled it. I installed it but I haven't tried it at all.

[Q] How to Use SDK?

I am just a n00b and idk anything about programming except some C++ stuffs
So i installed android SDK on Windows(SP2) and was planning to make some Apps like personalised android launcher for my mini..but after installing the .exe I just sat around like dumb..i just dont know what to do...
So here are my qwestions
1) How to connect my phone to SDK (GT-S5570 Cyanogen music edition by Crazy K_P and android version 2.3.4)
2) how to develop some random small apps as just for getting started
3) i found out an youtube video on how to make Android Launchers but nothing was mentioned on how to run SDK and stuffs
Am posting the video link soon
Hoping to get help from all of you guys here

you first need to download the android, open sdk manager n select wich android you want to download, when it finished open avd manager n create new virtual devices, n there you go, start it and you got virtual devices running..
btw sdk is for testing your apps, not creating. CMIIW
Yes, after downloading SDK you have to open the SDK Manager and select the stuffs you need to download like which Platform (Android 2.2/2.3/4.0 etc. ), code samples, documentations etc. Select only the required stuffs like any Android platform or its gonna be a hell lot of time required to wait to finish downloading.
After that you have to connect the SDK with Eclipse using ADT plugin. There are many Youtube videos regarding this, so it won't be a problem.
PS: Before you start with all these stuffs, its always good to have look on several ebooks on Android development, as you're a fresher.
umm thanks to u guys now i am kinda connected..do you guys know how to make apps wid it ?

For that you need to start from beginning like creating New Project and coding the stuffs, deploying in an Emulator or you can test run the app in your own phone by installing the apk file. As I previously mentioned start by referring some tutorials, and get in touch with what you are doing.

What is RootPA

I have been running stock since day one and yet I see on the phone RootPA. Anyone have any idea what this app is and what it does?

What do you mean by "it does not work"? What are you trying to use it for? It only works when you install an app that uses the TEE. And it is only needed at install. And the app vendor needs to have a deal with the company (TSM) that is allowed to do provisioning.
idk why this kind spy apps need internet use(For FAKE update purpose,But Already ur firmware will update all of those apks by their new firmware verion,and im not beliving they just update itself,but they update your infos in GOOGLECLOUD

[REQ]WP 8.1 resources needed

Hi guys, I am active as themer for Android phones and fully aware of the necessary technics (decompiling Android apk-s, changing resources etc). I have no clue whether the files system of WP 8.1 is fully accessible and I could have access to several resources used in the WP 8.1. I would need all pictures from the notification center in order to use it for theming purposes.
Since the latest generation of Android phones uses xxxhdpi resources I would need the files at least in 192X192 resolution.
Is this even possible? Could somebody help me? Thanks in advance.

(I'm not at home to copy this address exactly but you can find it in such address .)
double click on Image file to mount . then you can access to all files
