viewing webpages on my xda exec

hello
i was wondering if there was a nice way to view webpages on my xda. e.g. if i go to gmail, the first page is dusplayed ok, but when i open my mail, the page is kind of all over the place.
with some other sites, viewing the page becomes a task and a half.

You need to ask the question differently - are the websites you are visiting sufficiently well programmed to handle requests from small screen devices, without Javascript or Flash capabilities.

Android Web App

Hello everyone. I'm new to Android app development but I'm not new to web development. I was searching around and I found that I could do an "offline" web application. Since I'm new and can't post links, there is an example that can be found on Linux Mag. The article is called "Under the Hood of Native Web Apps for Android" and it's specific to offline app development. I'm looking for help with an ONLINE application using PHP/MySQL/AJAX using my web server to host the app - minus having to use the phone's browser.
I know you can do "web apps" for the iPhone (such as Google Voice) and I was wondering if I could do it with Android (unlike in the example from Linux Mag where the app is "offline", mine needs to be online). Any information would be appreciated as I keep turning up dry search results. Thanks very much!

This is not any of a problem with android (or java in general)
I'm just gonna give you a few catchwords & links:
Apache (Default)HttpClient - Pretty straight-forward-to-use HttpClient - http://developer.android.com/reference/org/apache/http/impl/client/DefaultHttpClient.html
AsyncTask - A pretty simple way to fetch data asynchronously (meaning you wont actually block your app while loading data) - http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/AsyncTask.html.
If your source-data is being delivered as xml you can use sax-parsers for json u can use org.json which is also built into standard android - http://developer.android.com/reference/org/json/package-summary.html
And finally a hint from my side if you're new to android application development... care about rotation-handling from the very begining of application development. You will regret later on if u didn't .

[REQ] app to fetch data from web site

Hello, XDA-Developers!
Basics: I'm looking for someone who can develop an Android app. It needs to be a simple application to fetch pages from a web site from a phone-friendly interface. It's intended to be a companion to the web site to enable easier access.
Background: I run a gaming website, gameshard.net. We're doing ok, and in order to reach out to new users and make it easier for users to access the site, I want to develop an Android app. But I have no android development knowledge at all. So I'm looking for help!
The Specifics: The GameShard.net app should be a simple, clean app designed to let users access information on the website through a touch-friendly interface. Specifically, users should be able to access the latest news, our library of reviews, features, and their profile (and inbox) from the device. The closest similar example I can think of for reference is the Eurogamer app for iOS. The app will be free, so incorporating adverts in a non-intrusive way would be welcome.
I leave it to the developer to decide what the easiest way to do this would be. It might be that the app could be a simple launcher for a custom iOS version of the website, or perhaps it would be better to fetch the data in a different way- I'm open to your ideas! And I'm willing to pay for your time, of course.
So, thats my pitch! Please let me know if you have any questions, and if you're interested in working on this send me a message.

Android: Unlock application's additional features with Facebook share or tweet

I have a free application published on Google Play. I want to add some new features and ask users to 'pay' for them with Facebook shares or tweets.
Scenario:
1. User updates application
2. New features are available in settings but they are not active
3. To activate feature user has to share information about my application on FB or on Tweeter
4. Only if sharing was successful feature will be available to the user.
For me it seems like a good idea to spread information about application in social media... however I can't find any 'out of the box' solution (library or code). Is there any?
Has anybody tried this approach and was it successful?
Also I'm trying to find out if this method is compliant with Google Play policy. I've read play.google.com/about/developer-content-policy.html with great care but I didn't find any clues. Has anyone got any policy violations emails from Google after implementing this method?

Maybe you can find something in the Facebook API.

What do you use to code? There's tons of assets for Unity that'd do what you're trying to do.

I'm not using Unity but develop my app in 'pure' Android SDK.
Just found this library: http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/457153/How-to-integrate-Facebook-Twitter-Linkedin-in-Andr
It looks promising so I'll give it a try.

You mean reward users for posting on Facebook or any social share, sure I dont think its that hard,
just everytime a user presses on the Share button add some coins to him ingame, you can also make
alot of money if you reward useres for watching a video ad in your game like a Vungle ad.

[Q] Best networks for CPI/CPA without SDK integration?

Hello there!
Let's say I'm developing a web app targeting a specific group of people. I know their goals, their interests and their needs. I want to upsell them relevant services, products and apps, with entire experience natively integrated in my app interface.
So I need reliable mobile ad networks providing JavaScript or some kind of REST API, so I could just request product image, advertising text and referral link, and then mind my own business at displaying them inside the app correctly, without any need to install jar plugins and registering mediators. And then be payed by CPI/CPA.
Any idea what networks are the best in that regard?
(I'm using Intel XDK btw)

can you just put google adsense ads? i've been wondering what is wrong with doing that?

Curious to see what the answer for this as well, have definitely seen this question pop up a few times.

Adxmi use API integration
global ads network Adxmi use API integration.

API integration available
I got API integration as I wanted from Adcash. Guess API is most common choice, at least in my comm. circle

Please take a look at Hyper native ads API for app developers.
Our solution will cover your needs for sure.
