Is there an Android app in 2.0
Hello again folks.
I have been trawling and come up with http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJCVNiBp2ug&feature=related which shows a playbook using 'Android app player'? I have read a few threads that talk about this app and that it was included with the upgrade. I do not seem to have it. Can anyone tell me how to obtain the app please? I have searched Blackberry App World but here is nothing I can see that fits the bill.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Ross

Solved!
Go to Solution.
The Android App player is baked into the PlayBook - so there's no 'app player' as such now. It's all invisible to the PlayBook user.
When you download apps from AppWorld, some are packaged Android apps.
For instance, if you search for the BBC News app - this is an Android app ported to the PlayBook. Run that and you will see.
Hope that makes it clearer.

Is there an Android app to sync photo stream?
Android phone app for iCloud photo stream
Is there some software or format issue with sharing a photostream with an android device?
If apple was smart they would develop an app for androids so apple users could share their photo streams. There's nothing more agonizing than constantly being reminded you dont have an iDevice every time you get a new photo notification. I'm just saying in case apple is listening. -

Is there a web site that reviews Android apps?
I'm new to Android. When looking for apps -- in this case software to scan business cards -- I'm overwhelmed by the number of apps. The info on Google Play isn't very helpful. Are there web sites that review Android Apps?
Hi RJLweb! You ask the same question that I've asked when shopping apps. Yes, we do have a site for application reviews of some of the more popular apps. You can check them out at this link: http://vz.to/1izJFxO

There are many apps I purchased for my android phone that are exactly the same for the iPhone, do I have to buy these again or would the license transfer?
Yes you need to buy them again. Apps written for one device will not run on the other.

AS3 is there an event for when Android app is exiting on it's own?
Ok, I made an app for Android. And when we push the middle button or back(lefthandside) button of Android phone, we all know that Android apps still runs in the background.
So my code is this:
the first line(addEventListener) is in a private function which runs as soon as you open the app.
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(flash.events.Event.EXITING, onMyAppExit)
private function onMyAppExit(event:flash.events.Event):void{
trace("onMyAppExit is running");
saveProgress();
Basically, I want saveProgress() to run when the app ACTUALLY exits from running in the background. I noticed that my app actually exits when I open another app like Candy Crush. I guess the Android OS exits apps automatically when the apps are not being used and when the app you are using takes a lot of RAM. However, my code only works when I run my app in AIR Debug Launcher(Mobile). I know that because I see the trace in the function in my output window when I click on the x button on the right corner of the app window. But when I connect my Android phone to the computer and then ---> AIR3.8 for Android settings ---> Publish, and then I "Begin Remote Debug Session", and on my Android phone, I open my app first, then open Candy Crush so that the Android OS automatically exits my app, I don't see the trace. So I finalized that the code didn't work on my phone.i tried this too. but doesn't work
'(event:Event)'
private function onMyAppExit(event:Event):void{
and 'stage'
stage.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.CLOSING,onMyAppExit); -
I have two Android tablets that are not connected to the internet (long story). I'd like to download Android Apps via my PC and copy them to my Android tablets. I do not want to use the Chrome APK extension for a variety of reasons. The apps I need are free, but without an internet connection, I can't obtain them. They are not available for direct download from the developer sites.
Read the question again FredMcD, he was asking for ways to download .apk files on computer to then install them on Android tablets.

Is there an offical app from Adobe for Android that can access the Creative Cloud files?
I have found one app but it was not made by adobe and was not recomended by any reviews. Is there an official app for the Creative Cloud?
First, to answer your initial question - no there is no way to access the clipboard content outside of the apps at this time.
The idea of exporting a timelapse is very interesting, and something we have been thinking about, but there are already some decent ways to do this. Check out this video of a drawing in Line created by Brian Yap Adobe Ink and Adobe Line Illustration - YouTube
You can create this kind of video using several of the available apps that let you display your iPad screen on your computer using Airple. Some examples are Reflector http://www.airsquirrels.com/reflector/ and AirServer http://www.airserver.com/ -
DPS android app for small screens, works, but poorly...
There is a way to get the DPS android app compatable with 1400 devices, including mobile phones.
In theory if you here reading this its because you have an android app made by the DPS app builder live in the play store and...
A: found out that the android app is only available on large/xlarge screens
B: are getting yelled at by your employer who bought the Adobe DPS subscription and claims this should work on his phone "because I looked at the Adobe site and it says android, my phone is an android, read their site and make it work"
C: found this because you were smart enough to read through the forums before suggesting this as a publishing solution to your employer and want to know if it really works on android phones, in whcih case, you may want to make it easy on yourself and just say "no, it does not" and then waid for Adobe to officially support small/normal screens perhaps head over to this post and bring some attention to it so we can collectivly improve this already awesome tool: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1097433
however, before you attempt this please keep in mind the following:
1- it does not work well, if at all, on certain devices. specifically the small phone devices with the slower processors. So what typically happens is that you need to delete the data for the app and wait nearly 10 min for the "checking for updates" to process and grab new edditions. Depending on your serivce provider, this can be a nightmare. So, do NOT even attempt this if you have a cap on your data plan, think about how long it would take to download a 100mb folio file on a 3g connection, not to mention the processor which the tablets have and phones do not have.
Here is some more data:
--Android 1 from Sprint: really super slow, thats all I gotta say
--Android 2 from Verizon, again, slow, but works
--Galaxy Nexus 4.1.1, Verizon 4g connection, works great, (10% of the time) lol. about 90% of the time the Galaxy Nexus needs to be restarted after installing, and will get stuck on the "updating library" screen. the only way to fix this for any of the above phones seems to be to clear all data, uninstall, re install, do not launch, restart phone, and then launch app.
I am going to test the following soon:
Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 (1.6GHz Quad-core)
(1.5GHz Quad-core)
LG Optimus G E973
Xiaomi MI-2
LG Optimus 4X HD P880
HTC One X
(the idea being that perhaps we can go through the list from google in the play store and limit the devices its on, but at least with this solutuon as described below we can get rid of the "not availabe on your device" notice.)
So before you read on, consider that for your end users. If you find a way to fix this, let me know, I have considered turning off hardware acceleration but have not tested this yet.
2- if you choose to attempt this make sure you have a good understanding of command line AND you have a new version of the app ready if you want to roll back.
consider this concept: (you should have these ready)
app a- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 100000 and 2.5.5.000. This is already in your google.play store account as a live app,
app b- the app you are about to build in this example below, it will in theory work on small, medium, large, and x-large android screens, lets say its version is 110000 and 2.9.9.000 (it will be MADE FROM APP A, you will open it, edit it, and wrap it back up.)
app c- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 200000 and 3.5.5.000 (which would be good to have in case your version b above does not work the way you want)
notice the VERSION codes. These are important because you can only go UP, you can not "roll back" to a previous version.
Again, I do not suggest this, but if you are daring and have some development background, feel free to give it a shot.
(I am not going to be able to support this info, but I can verify 100% that I got mine working, very poorly and slow, but it installs, pulls folios, and loads)
PC WINDOWS ONLY, I have not tried this on a MAC.
get this:
http://www.7-zip.org/
install it
get this:
http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
read all about it.
go here:
http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list
get:
apktool1.4.3.tar.bz2
and
apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
put them all in 1 folder, extract both items, all the way
the grab the
android-viewer.apk
that Adobe DPS made, or whatever yours is named...
and the
release.keystore
you made and put them in the same "stuff" folder. there should be 20 items total in here now.
get this:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u30-download-1377139.html
jdk-6u30-windows-x64.exe
do NOT use any other version, do NOT use version 7, use version 6.
install it all. then find it. should be here- (C://program files/Java/)
I recomend grabbing it all and putting it in your ROOT like this:
C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
then, put everything from the "stuff" folder into C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
yep, all of it.
now we are ready to get funky...
run cmd line.
open start menu, type
cmd
into the search bar, hit enter
-------- run command line, get to proper directory
cd ..
cd ..
cd Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
(or wherever your 'stuff' is)
--------open up
apktool d android-viewer.apk android-viewer
(this will make a folder called 'android-viewer' and you will be able to go into that folder and find the XML files in there)
--------edit XML
in file: /android-viewer/AndroidManifest.xml
open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
android:versionCode="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_" android:versionName="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_"
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
in file: /android-viewer/assets/META-INF/AIR/application.xml
open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
<versionNumber>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionNumber>
<versionLabel>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionLabel>
<supports-screens android:smallScreens='true' android:normalScreens='true' android:largeScreens='true' android:xlargeScreens='true'/>
--------package it back up
apktool b android-viewer android-viewer-new.apk
(this will repackage the folder into a new APK, note the name -new.apk added to the end)
--------Sign
jarsigner -keystore release.keystore -signedjar android-viewer-signed.apk android-viewer-new.apk YOUR_ALIAS
(now you need to sign the -new apk and recreate it as signed)
--------Verify
jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs android-viewer-signed.apk
(if the last line does not say 'successfully verified' and there is an error, make sure you are using version 6 of JDK and not 7)
--------Update APK in play store
Visit this page
http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/about/distribution.html#instant
read the line that says "Instant publishing, instant updates"
while you do, understand you are being lied to, it takes anywhere from 30 min to 4 hours for your update to be "instant".
take the new "android-viewer-signed.apk"
rename it, upload it, activate it, de activate the old one.
important: beofe you click save, switch over to the "product details" tab and update your version notes.
head over to your app page in the play store.
sit there and click refresh every 10 min or take a nap and come back in a few hours.
when you finally see the version number has updated, go to the browser on your phone
find your app in the browser, refresh the page, make sure its got the new version number on it.
install it on your small screen device, cross your fingers, and hope you do not get a message that says "not signed properly"
if you do, feel free to start googling the stuff above to see where you went wrong.
If it does work, go to your boss and have him download it and run it and say "see, there ya go, its on your phone now" and when he says it does not work hand him a minni screw driver and a 1.6GHz Quad-core from the Galaxy Note II and tell him to simply upgrade the procssor in his phone because its too slow. lol.
-good luck and enjoiHi,
This is very interesting. I'm not an expert but i could do almost all the steps, but i can not do the sign step. i dont know where my release.keystore is. i created a .key.p12 file, is it?
I'm trying to do this for a Galaxy SIII
Thank you -
Why can't I see my android app on google play on phone?
I've built a native android app which works fine on a tablet, but I can't see it on a phone App Store, any idea why?
After you test the .apk file, log in to the Google Play Developer Console (https://play.google.com/apps/publish/). From there, you can either unpublish the previous app and add the new app, or you can submit a new version (upload a new .apk binary) of the existing app. If you're updating the existing app, you might need to go back into Web App Builder and override the version number. Instructions for doing this are in the link Neil provided.

Android App - works fine in Device Central but not in phone
Greetings!
Just looking for some general "you might try this" tips. I've built a very basic game app for Android so I can start learning not only how to develop for Android, but also how to publish and distribute Android apps to users.
My game works fine when I test in Device Central from Flash. And I've been able to upload my app to the Android Market. But when I install and run on my Android phone (I've actually tested on two separate devices), I just get a light yellow screen with a series of tiny dots that move across the screen, almost like a loading indicator, but nothing happens after that.
I've tried publishing as both an Air (Air 2) file and a Flash (Flash 10) file. In device central, I tested the app on a Droid Incredible emulation. The devices I've tested on are an HTC Inspire (AT&T) and an HTC Thunderbolt (Verizon).
So, I know there's no way for someone to take my limited description above and say "this is your problem". Again, I'm just hoping for some general tips along the lines of "try publishing in a different version of Flash".
Any suggestions for where I should start digging?
Thanks in advance!

Is Flash Builder a good beginner program for creation of android app?
Hi there,
I'm planning to create a Android app and I'm searching for the right program to do so. I have absolutly no knowledge about programming, but happen to have Flash Builder as part of the Creative Suite CS6. As I need to learn everything from the complete beginning, I'd like to pick the best program for this purpose, so I don't learn a lot of stuff not be able to achieve the product I'd like. Let me give you a example of what I will try to achieve:
Program for Android:
- first page of the program would be a welcome page, it would be nice to be able to put a login and password option here, but that is not neceserry.
- second page would be a list of 14 options - books - and by clicking on each option I would open a little book (cca 30 pages).
- this option would be nice: let's say I open the third book and stop reading on page 10 and stop/close the program - the next time I open the program it would open the program on that very 10th page of the third book
- this option would aslo be nice: some kind of searching modul to search keywords in the book.
Is this kind of app possible to make in Adobe Flash Builder, or would it be better to learn another program? Thanks a lot for your experiences! HedvertelIf you have a licence for Master Collection you should have the info about what it contains.
A few moments on Google took me here: http://www.ecostsoftware.com/adobe/adobe-creative-suite-cs6-master-collection-mac_p5565?gc lid=CNzN5MbKmLoCFXDJtAodWDoA3w
The included software is listed. I don't think Muse existed when CS6 was originally released.
I didn't properly read George's answer, but I don't see Muse as a great app builder.
I kind of don't understand at all, why you even answer, if the only thing you are saying in this disucssion is that it's too ambitious and that I'm stupid even asking.
Saying the project is overly-ambitious is a great answer to your question. In post 5 you clearly valued that answer enough as to be giving up on the project.
I didn't say you were stupid asking these questions, it's more a case of asking questions you should be able to answer yourself without too much trouble.
I still think that with your current level of understanding, takling this project with no experience of any programming or web technology is overly ambitious. Start small and build on that.
You don't say why you want to do this particular project - whether it's about learning in general or that project in particular. If it's learning in general there's nothing to stop you - there are a ton of tutorials out there. If it's for this particular project only, I would stop now.
You need to invest a significant amount of time to learn this stuff.
Are you on some design course? Why do you have the master collection? -
How do I change the Version Code in the Flash Android settings Android app market?
I recently tried to update my app in the Android app market and when I uploaded it I got the following message:
"The new apk's versionCode (1000000) already exists."
In the Flash Adnroid settings I changed the version label but that did not help.
So I have two questions:
How do I change the Version code in the Flash Android settings? I changed the version number and version label but that did not work.
What is the difference between the version number and version label?I tried that but it did not work. Apparently there is a difference between the version code and version number (which is set in the Android settings). From my research the version label is optional, so there are no problems there.
This is the what the XML file says:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/2.6">
<id>com.company.nameofapp</id>
//Below is the correct version number, but has no relation to the version code.
<versionNumber>1.1.0</versionNumber>
<versionLabel>NewLayout</versionLabel>
<filename>Name of app</filename>
<description/>
I did find this piece of information for Androin version codes. (http://developer.android.com/guide/publishing/versioning.html) But I don't know how to place it into the xml file without conflicting with other code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.package.name"
android:versionCode="2"
android:versionName="1.1">
<application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name">
</application>
</manifest>
Any other thoughts are much appreciated.
