Hi there,
I just started a new website at http://www.androidheroes.com, which will focus on Android Apps and the overall Android ecosystem.
I've decided on a feature, that each friday, I would like to do feature on a single app, to help gain some publicity for the developer, at no charge.
As a software developer myself, I know how important publicity is, and I want to allow developers to use my site as a tool for just that.
I don't know if this is against forum rules, but I quickly checked, and couldn't really see anything.
There's a few criteria to be met:
App must be complete and released on the Market.
Submission must include a 638(w)x300(h) image to be featured on the front page.
A QR code and link to the application must be provided.
No more than 500 words about the application, including summary, functionality etc.
No more than 200 words about the developer, including profile, homepage etc.
I am aware that Android Heroes is a new site, but with features like this we hope to grow our user base rapidly.
Please send all submissions to MOD EDIT: REMOVED EMAIL, I will chose the best submission and feature it tomorrow (Friday 25th).
Thanks,
Chris

About 5 months ago, I had the idea of creating a site strictly for themes for rooted Android phones. Of course, I did my research and there are a few out there, but none of them had the organization or information one needed about any certain theme. So, I went with my idea and now today, here I am with the initial design of my latest project, Central Themes.
The way I see Central Themes is a place where developers can sign up for their own developer profiles where they will be allowed to upload their themes with screenshots, features, descriptions, etc.
Now, while users will not be able to sign-up for their own profiles, they will be able to comment and leave their feedback on themes on the website.
Now, why am I posting this here? Simply put, I need your feedback and who better to ask for feedback than the users of the themes and the developers who create them!
Right now, all I have are the initial designs and that's where you guys come in. Check out http://www.centralthemes.com/feedback and tell me what you think!
What features would you like to see added, what other information needs to be put on the theme pages, would you like forums, etc, etc, etc.
So, please, feel free to send an e-mail to the address on the website or feel free to leave your constructive criticism in this thread.
Thanks,
Travis James

I am a student doing an Interdisciplinary project as part of the Scottish Baccalaureate.
The aim of my project is to determine whether mobile application development is a sustainable business.
I will be needing some figures in terms amount of applications sold and the amount of monthly profit, if possible (average).
There will also be a section in my report which includes a detailed comparison between the trends of people buying applications, whether they are more likely to buy or just download the free app, and also the possibility of them buying a PRO version of the app.
All information provided might be used in my report, none will be given to any third parties.
My final report on my project has the possibility of being published in a research journal depending on the quality of it.
Any developer interested in taking part in this, and helping me please send me a message.
Please include your developer name (Android market, or Apple)
The name of your app/s you wish to include in this research
Your name on XDA
Also just send me a message or post here if you have any questions about my project.

Hello everyone, i found this link to a petition from a signature of a senior member somewhere in the galaxy s II forum, but after clicking the link, I found out that it was a petition for samsung to completely make android more open to the public and so that developers could have a less hard time in porting new roms, customizing their devices, etc. Just click the link to learn more. Thanks http://www.change.org/petitions/samsung-mobile-help-third-party-development-achieve-full-potential-of-purchased-devices#
EDIT: Here are the exact reasons posted in that petition site, none of the words used will be coming from me, all of the words inside the quotation marks will be the property of the linked site I have given above.
"Samsung Mobile releases many mobile devices worldwide, yet has an unfortunate reputation for being somewhat slow to update devices to the latest firmware version. This leaves users open to security vulnerabilities, which is detrimental to the experience of paying users.
We, the undersigned, petition Samsung Mobile to release as much as is possible to third party developers (in particular, driver libraries and source headers) in order to allow users to obtain full functionality of the device they have paid for, and further the principles of free open source software (FOSS)."
Hello guys, I hope I will not be violating any rules. I would just like to inform the community with our mobile. It's been in the playstore for a while but have no traction yet since we have not focused on marketing it.
It is called Makeapp. It's goal is to empower everyone to be able to create apps for hobby, business, etc.
We know that the UI needs improvement at first glance as well as user experience during creation of apps. With it's current version, we have already used it for providing several apps for a few clients such as an HR mobile app, delivery app, mobile dashboard, several e-learning apps, etc with few to zero coding. With these even business owners and non techy people will be able to create their own apps.
Hope you give it a try and give us feedback and ideas on how we can improve the product.
We are not yet sure in open-sourcing it but there have been discussions.
Here's the link if you are interested.
