LOL I got that way with someone once. They advised me to also nibble on my fingers. ;)
[General Marketing & SEO] kulisgames:
This is open discussion, please post your thoughts. Also I will be calling games "apps" too, for simplicity. I have released a game and I am now doing a couple of reviews now and then. This is all my experience. You can agree or dissagree and add your own experience.

This is the list so far

Make an app first and then seek to promote it

Promoting an app with bugs

Asking everyone for Google Play store rate&review without helping others first

Sending review requests without having proper materials for the reviewers and/or not replying to the reviewer

And my notes

This was my biggest mistake. I learned it the hard way and I can see many people do the same. You make an awesome game and nobody ever heard about it before. You need to have people already following your progress. Remember, everything you do is newsworthy to someone! If not, then your game is doomed anyway.

I got few games to review that I couldn't run on 2/3 of my devices. After some time I see the game in google play store with 20 ratings and 2 stars...

In indie "Pay It Forward" works. And it would work much better if everybody did it. The most popular truly indie game I reviewed on my site was from a guy who created an awesome series of tutorials and helped everyone else first. He gots tons of downloads immediately...

My personal favourite. It makes my queue of games to review much shorter. Seriously, people - promoting something is a hard work. Deal with it. And if someone can get you more downloads, it's a good reason to at least try.

We have a flow chart stuck on the wall showing the app business development cycle.

* Application Planning: concept design, feature design, APIs available, prototyping, audience targeting, platform selection, form factor selection

* Develop and Debug: Platform IDE, SDKs, APIs,

* Market Readiness: developer reg, certification, beta testing, localisation, packaging

* Distribution and Monitization: App publishing, billing, virtual goods, in app advertising

* Retailing and Discovery; Curation, in-app pricing, advertising, promos, PR, Merchandising

* In-Life: Analytics, ratings, user support and updates

Lots of developers spent 90% of there time doing just the development. I think the reality of your success (or your business) needs to spend ALOT more time doing the other processes. Remember when we used to work for large companies that had an actual marketing department? :highfive:
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
So I'm getting Titanium Backup's insufficient storage space when I try to back up my apps. This makes it REALLY difficult to test the build of OmniROM I was about to post here, as I can't back up my apps. I have about 15GB of storage spacel eft on a 32GB Nexus 10.

I've tried:

-Deleting the *.odex file, it doesn't exist in /data/app

-Using the /emulated/legacy storage

-Using the /emulated/0 storage

-Deleting data/cache

-Deleting ALL cached data

-Rolling back to an older version

None of the above work. Does anyone have a solution?

I'm running Android 4.3 "Dirty Unicorn"

EDIT: It works now but no clue what caused or fixed it.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sttovo:
Strange - you'd think there would be enough space. Are you sure you don't have some weird symlink causing a recursive infinite backup? Happened to me once.

Backup one app at a time, or do a batch of small apps first.

What about TWRP or CWM backups? Can you move them somewhere else temporarily?

Fwiw - I've always used ROM Toolbox Pro for backups, never failed me. Never tried TiBu. RTP can even copy to Gdrive, etc. But it costs money.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
I paid for Titanium Backup's PRO key. Its normally well behaved. I don't know what fixed it- I eventually deleted even the system apk of it, all backups, all folders, and reflashed my update.zip from TWRP. At that point it began working, and now I can commence testing of my OmniROM work!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garnet&gold:
Flashing SuperSU is what fixed it for me. I've had the same issue on several different roms recently using superuser until I flashed SuperSU and updated the binary.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
If it happens again, I'll try that first or contact Koush

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linjes:
I am using the D802, bought it in Singapore under M1. I also use the flipcover with the quick window - bug does not happen when i unlock using it. On stock with TWRP and root.

The problem first started when I rooted my device, I noticed that locking it and quickly unlocking it again would sometimes cause a soft reboot. The problem went away after a while, but today it has rebooted on me at least 8 times.

My logcat is attached below(no confidential stuff there). I seem to be able to reproduce the problem pretty easily today, so I started logging from when I turned on my screen and ends when the phone shows the lock screen when I finish the boot(when the lock screen appears)

Unlocking is attempted the moment the screen turns on and all the widgets have loaded(1second?), and the soft reboot occur both with double tap and using the power on key.

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3ooqFjmbeiFZDg3aHVUenFCWWc/edit?usp=sharing

I've already done a cache and dalvik cache wipe using TWRP 2.6.3.2 but it does nothing IMO

Any one has any ideas? I suspect a problem with me /system/bin/cnd file cos is keeps showing a "reading a NULL string not supported here" - it's the one error that keeps showing up. Any help would be really appreciated, thank you so much :)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
I have seen this problem on many, many occasions with my T-Mobile G2 but in my case I did not dug that deep (logcat).

However I noticed the problem occurred while using either the Lockscreen Gmail Widget or the Launcher Gmail Widget.

Once I remove them, the problem is gone.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] AndroidTechgeek:
Hey guys,

I edited a few icons of an app called "flying jellybeans" in the playstore to make it look like the jellybean easter egg.

It functions exactly like the jellybean easter egg and is very smooth.

Try it out and let me know if everything's working :cool:

Devs - It would be awesome if you could include this easter egg to your rom :highfive:

I wasn't able to take screenshots of this app ( resulted in a blank image :eek: )

P.S-Don't expect any candy cane to show up ! :p

EDIT: Iamareebajmal has made a tutorial for getting the easter egg... and that is much better than what I have done. Head over there :http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2530498

If this app was built in to the settings of a rom, other guys would be convinced your android version is legit :p

I had adblock enabled in my phone, so i didn't notice it. :o

BTW would it be right to remove the ads from this app ??
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Lalit Patil:

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] iamareebjamal:
Removing that folder won't work as the code will be referring to them and they would be absent, causing app to crash

It's better to use Adaway in your ROM rather than trying to remove ads(which may be looked down as warez if the developer has provided a paid version which is without ads)

Adding the text is hard, even if we had it's source java code (which is manageable), because we're talking about a static text on variable background. Doing it in smali is even more (extremely) harder

The thing which we can do is make a popup appear when we open it (as in Gingerbread)

Afternoon Guys,

Anyone got any opinions/reviews on this tempered glass screen protector for our beloved Z Ultra ?

http://www.screenknight.com/product-p/xperzug.htm

before I go ahead and order just thought I would ask fellow Z'ers thoughts

Next purchase the CP12...can't wait for that
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ij0rgei:
thats a screen protector for the regular xperia z. its misleading in the title as the name of the glass is ultra glass. lol i know armorz is supposed to be coming out with one but they havent replenished stock yet. the armorz one is a bit pricey though. you could also find plenty of them on ebay for pretty cheap. i had planned on getting a tempered glass screen protector, but purchased a warranty instead. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fntms:
I have the glass-m.

It's really good, easily the best protector I"ve used for the Ultra (the gearmaxx being the worst, then another plastic one which was much better).

Very few fingerprints, hardly ever need to clean it...

Looks very nice. Feels great.

At first it felt like I lost some screen sensitivity, but now I'm not so sure...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] l.Urker:
I too own a Glass-M on my S4, great screen protector! Feels a thousand times better then the shatterproof sheet. (Even a generic plastic screen protector i have on the ZU is better anyway)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] littopillo:
My choice, for Ultra:-

(1) Armorz Stealth Extreme R Tempered Glass:

Pros - round edges

Cons - 0.4mm thickness

(2) SGP GLAS.t Slim Tempered Glass:

Pros - 0.26mm thickness

Cons - sharp edges / not available yet
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] elio321:
I am tempted to go for the Glass-M one for $31.50.

http://theglass-m.com/collections/f...-glass-screen-protector-for-sony-xperia-ultra

I still have the easy peel-off screen film on my Z Ultra....do I simply peel them off then apply the Glass-M ?

What is the shatterproof cover I hear people talking about ?

Thanks guys
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reb0rn:
Easy peel off... Dude you need too read more...

That shatter proof cover is the original screen protector and it's a pain in the ass to remove.

I bought my on ebay from china it have not got it yet. Maybe I will get it today. It has been at least 15 days.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cholepuree1:
I bought a tempered glass protector off eBay (from China) as well. It arrived cracked. I contacted the seller, and they sent me a replacement. It took 17 days to arrive, and when I opened the package, it too was cracked! I'm now going to try my luck with the the Glass-M. I'm dying to use a pen/pencil on this thing but wont until I put a tempered glass screen protector on...

I'm a little irritated by how quickly Note 3 accessories became available - including tempered glass protectors. Seems like most of the big names (spigen?) wont be making tempered glass for the ZU....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jeremy.chan:
do you need to remove the standard shatterproof film on the ultra to apply this glass-m protector? In some cases, Sony voids warranty upon removal of this layer.

Has anyone added the glass-m on top of the layer, and does it affect touch sensitivity? certain screen protectors make the screen go crazy, registering random touches.

very interested in the glass-m, but would like to clear up some quesitons first
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reb0rn:
Unless you remove it, it's applying a tempered glass protector on top of a plastic glass reinforced protector. So you can imagine how the touch would like that combo...

As stated. Removing the shatterproof protection is a pain. But it is totally worth it. I've never had this level of protection and comfort at the same time on any mobile device before.

Tapatalked from my Sony Xperia Z Ultra
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] angel.grin:
Touch is not affected by the tempered glass. Using it with a pencil or any metal object registers as if nothing is on top of the screen. I'll post the photo of the brand of my tempered glass.as I forgot already.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] IAmBrock:
Hopefully that will not happen to me.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] keithleyson:
Just ordered the Glass-M from here http://theglass-m.com/collections/f...-glass-screen-protector-for-sony-xperia-ultra

Hopefully all goes well and I will receive my order in pristine condition. I need this cause I just realize that there is a deep scratch on the generic screen protector that I bought from the telco.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] keithleyson:
Finally got my Glass-M. the size is smaller than the screen so its not difficult to align with your device. There is a problem with it though, the edges of the glass-m doesnt seem to stick to the device properly. I have it under a hardbound book right now in hopes of make it stick properly.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] chacho_2me:
did you put it on top of your stock screen protector? or took it out?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] eug:
Any updates? Did you remove the factory protector?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] keithleyson:
Removed it. Can't stand it not sticking properly and also making the device less sensitive especially on fps games. I originally placed it on top of the ASF. Now I'm just waiting for my screen to be scratched then I'll remove the ASF to finally touch the glass o this phone.

ಠ_ಠ

On mobile....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] raudo:
Sounds like glass4m does not have together...

I ordered the front protector for my Z Ultra, they sent me the back. Almost 3 months have passed and they have replied once to my mails but have not corrected the issue.

Watch out, having an issue after the purchase may just leave you in the cold.

If anyone wants double click home to open Voice Search, you can try the app Home2 Shortcut from the Playstore.
