Use Your Old Phone For Scientific Research - Repurposing Old Devices

Use Your Old Phone For Scientific Research​
I ran across this interesting project that allows you to donate the processing speed of your old Android device to help with scientific research. This means that you're officially a scientist and your friends should call you "Doctor".
All you have to do is install an app called BIONIC and you'll be able get started supporting the research of your choice.

Use your phone or tablet to study diseases, predict global warming, or discover pulsars! BOINC harnesses the unused computing power of your Android device and runs jobs for scientific research projects. You can choose from projects in several areas of science, including [email protected], World Community Grid, PrimeGrid, [email protected], [email protected], theSkyNet POGS, [email protected], and [email protected]
BOINC computes only when your device is plugged in and charged, so it won't run down your battery. It transfers data over WiFi, so it won't use up your cell phone plan's data limit.

This has been a hell of a past 3 months for Android. Google's partnership teams were busy at work all year to pull off this home run: the Hero, the Droid, and now this ereader -- with 3 different manufacturers and 2 lines of business. Hard to see MS Windows Mobile catching up to the influence of Android -- open source, widgets, app store with momentum, rapid adoption within one year's time.
In one year, MS can barely get a half-step upgrade to an OS that only remained a contender thanks to HTC and XDA devs doing the heavy lifting bringing finger-touch navigation to the obsolete tap-a-tiny-box excuse for an OS MS put forth even after iPhone changed the game.

[Library] GrilledUI

GrilledUI is a library to implement common UIs easily. Available UI types are: tabbed UI (TabActivity), master/metail flow (SectionActivity) and their hybrid (HybridActivity). These activity classes wrap everything you need to create your UI with just a few lines of code or even load tabs/sections and instaniate fragments from XML file. HybridActivity allows you to have tabs on phones and MDF on tablets. This way you can easily make your app tablet and phone friendly without torturing phone users with multiple activities.
Library comes with JavaDocs, multiple examples, in open source form, 2-clause BSD license and pre-ICS support (!). Pre-ICS devices are supported with the help of ActionBarSherlock.
GrilledUI lives on GitHub.
A small preview of what is possible:

Article - Making an app survive in Android’s ocean

"As apps’ visibility becomes more and more difficult, app developers are working hard to make their apps stand out among thousands of new apps appearing every day. There is a big variety of articles out there on how to increase an app’s discoverability through ASO techniques, marketing campaigns and others. What is most important, though? Spend on ad marketing campaigns? Creating press releases, or dive into Google Play mechanisms to understand and position better an app on store? Anyone could argue that app developers should be doing all of that anyway…this is so true, but where should be their main focus?"

You may spend some money, if you have enough.
ASO is very important but you don't need too much time for writing text and improving it sometimes.
What you have to work hard with is your audience beyond Google Play. Demonstrate the app anywhere you can. Use social networks, SMM. People should notice you.
Well, that's what I think

Hi all, I recently bought two of these watches for my kids, as a Christmas present. Perhaps abruptly, but it seemed attractive price and quite complete features for children ages 8 and 10. Then I have seen problems using the application "Care Escort 2", registration problem in this application, etc.
Does anyone know more than the pure propaganda offered by vendors (there are not many) of this watch that has chip MTK 2603?. What would I can expect from him (changing wallpapers?... Personalization screens?... Does anyone know a terminal similar to this? (Several models look alike, but I find no reviews of it or more information from the manufacturer, operating system or anything else...).
may be too new (?) or old already (?) or not as good, no or I know. Seller, once sold, do not know, know little or not answer, assuming you have already placed...
Thanks in advance, any information to elders about this "unknown watch" so far, if it deserves your reflection and inquiry, thank you sincerely.
