Hi
I'm working in marketing in a mid-sized company in Switzerland. We are currently working with flash-based electronic sales documents on Tablet-PCs (WinXP). With more new and faster tablets/pads arriving, we are thinking about switching to an Android-System, mainly because it supports Flash and because I like it
Is there anybody around here, who could recommend an agency, preferably in Switzerland (Germany, France or Austria being options), who have experience in Android development for customers in an industrial setting? We are seeking an agency of at least two people and not a freelancer/single person due to project management reasons. We would need to have a version of Honeycomb somewhat adapted to our needs (user interface; full-screen playback of flash content; ...) and would be willing to exploit the further possibilities (e.g. customer feedback form, order form, ...).
I have looked around, and there are some web/internet-agencies that claim to provide Android development but I doubt the ones I found really have the experience with this rather new plattform... for some reason, already good flash-programmers are very hard to find around here...
Maybe even some folks around here work on android-development for a business? if not here, where then?!
Any help is greatly appreciated. Also, please don't hesitate to PM me, if you think you or your company could help me on this project.

Hello all.
Today, i've starting building the first of many cellular penta-band/quad-band antenna prototypes i will be working on during the following year as a part of my final project in engineering.
I will be building different prototypes for different companies and selling them with my project advisor (one apparently known to be the biggest specialist in antennas in Israel).
Now, as this is electronics engineering - not software engineering, i'm not required to provide anything software related .....
BUT, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in working on an application which would receive feedback from cellular devices and supply specifications on their antenna type.. from praise and gain to whatever else is related to antennas and can be snatched out using a regular cellular signal detection.
I will, of course, throughout the following year, provide a full notebook (in parts) of details with all math required.
I am aware of the fact that not many people deal with this type of programming... and this is where "might involve payment" comes into the picture. in the end of the year, i'm supposed to give in a final project report with all products, production files and electronic testing notebooks. If i give a dedicated software, which cannot be found anywhere else, I might be able to sell it along with the prototypes. Fees will be discussed if this reaches a high level of interest (which is where "might" comes in). You can see it as any other project in XDA-devs...
I can't promise ANYTHING to the programmer in advance, but i CAN promise that if a company is interested in this software (and I, along with my advisor, will try to sell it wide-world), you will be either filthy rich (because it can go for something like 250$ a license) or receive many job offers revolving around the cellular-software world... or both.
If anyone is interested in this project, please PM me.
Now, as i would like XDA-devs to profit from this as well, I will ask the programmer to release about 2-3 expiry versions of this program (without the source-code of course) before the final release, so that people can test them and give feedback while enjoying them (of course.. if they have any interest in it).
I will keep this thread on for as long as I see action. That is, if i see people are interested in this area, i would gladly have this thread running cellular antenna development issues/applications/tests.. and so forth. If i see it dies.. I will close it.
Cheers

Calling all developers...
I first want to thank you guys for all you do. I and my phone certainly appreciate the work you have put into developing for these smart devices.
I have a request...
I work for a non-profit organization that provides services for the mentally and physically disabled segment of the population. I provide IT support and have been tasked with finding talented programmers who can write applications for Android and iOS devices. The applications are not expected to be particularly elaborate, but definitely esthetically appealing. They will need to be simple and easy to use. We are looking to provide these apps for the people we support. We want to provide for them a way to find helpful information easily and quickly (like branch location information, local state/county resource listings, etc.).
I'm asking for your help because though I provide IT support, I'm definitely no coder (hardware, help desk, and server support are in my wheel house).
If anyone here is interested in lending your talents to a good cause you can reply to this thread or pm me.
We are in the very early stages of this project, so questions regarding details like compensation or even the detailed nature of the desired app(s) cannot be answered at this time.
Nevertheless, I can assure you that your help will be greatly appreciated.
P.S. If this is the wrong place to inquire, or the wrong thread to post, please steer me in the right direction.
Thanks!

A static page with links to the appropriate county agency(s) resource(s) web page(s) is all you need. Especially considering your clientele.
Hi there
I work for a public relations agency that acts on behalf of ZTE in Europe.
Our aim in joining the forum is to be helpful with product, market and technical questions where we can, and to go back to ZTE to get answers where we need to, within the boundaries of what is acceptable/allowable based on ZTE’s standard terms, and/or the terms ZTE has agreed with operators for operator-branded devices.
Pease be patient.. I am here to genuinely try to help, but please understand that at times I might have to say "no" based on those constraints.
Hi and most of all welcome.
It is rare that a representative of a company is active on a forum but I like and applaud it.
My personal reason to buy a product, and I think alot of people here, is that there is true community of development and progress in the latest and greatest.
XDA is the future now and what the people want!
If a manufacturer can aid them it will be a win win situation.
Android device sales have boomed in the last year to what I think is also a result of word of mouth.
Most of my friends and colleagues are now interested and will buy, or have already bought an Android phone over the last couple of months because I showed them the possibilities and the tremendous support of this forum.
The power that these boards have is stellar and it is up to the manufacturer to listen to what the people say or want to adapt in future needs.
Marketing to sell is one thing but support is even more important so current customers will stay with your brand.
In my case I bought the blade in Belgium where I currently live to act as an interim phone due to my HTC HD2 being broken (again).
At first I thought I would have withdrawel symptoms towards the HD2 but I got to love my Blade. I now got to love it that much that a couple of people I know have got one too. I might sell my HD2 whenever I get it back and for sure keep the Blade.
I am already looking forward to test the new range of ZTE phones, so if you need testers ;-)
Thanks lukesan - this is great feedback and I will share it with ZTE HQ.
Since announcing ZTE's presence on xda and MoDaCo as well as Tweeting on @ZTE_UK - we have already received lots of offers of help in testing new devices!
I will tell you what I have told others, as ZTE's European PR team we would love to get as many devices into the hands of as many enthusiasts as possible - since it is excellent PR. Sadly, at this stage I cannot promise devices for review - all I can say is I will flag the interest with people at ZTE.
Cheers
Sean
on the 24th June 2011, ZTE released a 2.2.2 software update for the China Unicom V880 blade located here: http://support.zte.com.cn/ftpdata/手机售后/技术资料发布/3G/V880/image-P729CUV1.0.0B15.zip
Will zte be providing an updated 2.6.32 kernel source for this software update as I would like to study their code to see what improvements were made
agree with hecatae, we need an update to .32 first.
I am not familiar with Facebook app development, but my company is sorely in need of it, I believe. My company is fairly small and I don’t have anyone on staff that is skilled in development, so I need a company that can complete an application project without huge fees. Does anyone know of a reliable company I could hire for a project?
No matter the size of your company
No matter the size of your company, Facebook application development can help your company grow exponentially in terms of customer size, as well as sales and revenue. Sometimes it is better to outsource application development projects rather than assigning the project to someone on staff - if you even have anything on staff! When you outsource this kind of work, it is completed more thoroughly and more quickly. I know that a company like ConvoSpark, which is based in San Francisco, is able to complete projects both large and small in a short amount of time. They are definitely one of the best out there and can help you reduce the costs associated with application development.
Many of you may already be familiar with our newly released firmware search/archive on fw.updato.com in collaboration with @zxz0O0. We also have another thread here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/updato-largest-online-firmware-archive-t3413785 - announcing the release. Anywho, my request for feedback sort of got lost in the noise in the previous thread so I thought I'd start another one for the sole purpose of gathering some ideas. I hope that's appropriate.
So we're going to be heavily investing into improving the search platform (layout, design, filters, sorting, accuracy, etc) and I wanted to get some solid feedback, thoughts, ideas and suggestions from our users. Your voice is far more important to me than our internal opinions, so please help us make the platform better, simpler, more user-intuitive. What's lacking? Where can we improve? What new features would you like to see?
Speak now or forever hold your peace (jk, but seriously, do speak now)
Thanks
Peter
