[Q] Question about the XDA App - Android Software Development

How was the XDA android app made (the one to browse the forums)?
I have seen others on the market that look and work in exactly the same way, is there some sort of app template out there?

I don't exactly know how it's done but they are generally based from an app called Tapatalk, available in the market too.

What is this app? I want to disable it using terminal emulator because it's always running at like 6mb on my phone but I'm not sure if this is a necessary process.

If I disable it will my phone not be able to access its contents even if I have astro?

Well if it is then I don't think so. Its basically a driver. Its like saying I have the keyboard but I don't have the cable, can I still type?

Alright, well i'd like to delete some more bloatware. I know a bunch of the "com"names are self explanatory but does anybody have a list of what name controls what? I'm looking through pm list and they're not all explicit.

Here's the website for it: http://www.smithmicro.com/products/device-management-suite.aspx
It has something to do with receiving OTA updates.

This is more of what I was talking about http://www.market4android.com/stock-android-2-1-apps-list
The list did help me but I have a MT4G with Stock Rom 2.2.1 so if anybody has a more specific list to that I'd appreciate it

Yeah, use the app instead of your browser. App will say android, browser will say mobile.

Then it says Facebook for Android.
EDIT: I stand corrected. Facebook is so silly.
Maybe they changed it?

The app changed. Does it bother you that much?

This is part of the petty google vs facebook fight. FB took out the reference to Android in the app...
Use Friendcaster

My app still says via android... if your going into view profile that puts you through the browser... other than that I would reinstall it. Unless it is different for the nexus

LOL... who cares?
This version of facebook is really ****ed up because:
it always lists messages in "most popular" instead of "lastest news"
this version doesn't display messages from other posters
I finally gave up using app and use browser instead.
Omg this is so frustrating

Clearly it is defective. Return it to your local Sprint store. I understand this is a widespread and well known issue that is covered by warranty.

I can look for and try and install the apk outside the market, but I was asking if someone knew of any alternatives that could do the same job or better, for example for messaging I'm currently using Nimbuzz since it can connect to to several messaging services at the same time (even Facebook Messaging)
I installed the app fom an apk from the internets and it seems to be working
