Im looking for a developer that has experience with google services especially the google calender.
We have a fully fleshed out idea. I have one developer now but he does not have much time.
native android code will be used and we are developing with android studio. We have a git repo (currently empty) setup and notes and slides from the initial discussion phase of the development process.
I can not reveal specific details about the app only that it will tie in directly to google calendar and that most of the code for the app can be pulled from the current calendar app and reworked for this project. This will be a pay app (might have limited free version) and there is definite potential for profit.
If you are interested please contact me via PM so that we may discuss it further.
Hello everyone,
I just joined and I am not sure if this is the correct section to ask this. If its not I really apologize
I created a Google App Script that generates a form with check boxes and text-boxes for our monthly equipment checks. A technician would walk around and check off any damaged equipment that we have. This data is recorded in a Google drive spreadsheet which then generates a report.
I would like to create an App which basically does the same thing. But I am not sure where to start. I tried researching the Google APIs but it is way beyond me.
My question is has anyone attempted or done something similar in the past and if so how easy is it to manage? I would host a simple database on our network for this but there is no way that our systems department would grant us the permissions.
Also are there (free) different or easier alternatives out there. My data would be True or False or Yes or No answers also text-boxes would store around 50-100 characters a very basic description of the problem.
I would really appreciate any feedback.
Thanks
You should probably have a look at the GData api for java its simple fast and free
I am currently working on a project using this
I will be right here for any assistance

Is there a well written tutorial out there for using these two?
I'm trying to write a simple image sharing program that would use google app engine's data store to pass the images around from
the android devices.
I followed a tutorial in github.
Can't link the tutorial but a google search on 'helloendpoints' will turn it up.
at step 2, where he connects the android app to the back end, the code he supplies is filled with errors, and I don't udnerstand it well enough to
try to debug it. He also doesn't specify where to insert the class, in the back end module? In the cliend module?
No matter where I put it it seems to be missing a whole set of libs, and doesn't offer to import them.
Would any of you guys talk me through this?
So far I got the standard 'template' backend (Mybean etc.) and deployed that locally. I deployed it onto a google app engine project I made. But I can't actually connect it to my app,
Also once deployed I have no idea if it's working.
When I hit "say hello" it doesn't say "hi, <inserted text>" like it does when I deploy it locally. I'm thinking maybe that result is being sent somewhere but I'm not sure where on appengine's dev console to find it.
Please help.
I'd like to try setting up my N9005 without Play Store and Google Play Services. Part of the reason is the battery use by Google Apps of various types and the other is the necessity of allowing those apps access to dial the phone, send SMS etc.
I'd like to see if I can make my phone more efficient AND more secure.
So far I'm looking at getjar.com, androidtapp.com and appbrain.com. Which app sites do you use and is it reasonable to find one that provides apps that don't use Google Play functions?
Suggestions welcome and experiences on any alternative sites would be appreciated? Also opinions or experiences in getting rid of the google connection...
I'm currently running @temasek 's cm13 - v 3.5 (more properly @joshndroid 's cm13 now he is building it )
I tried once

I once tried to use my Nexus 7 without Gapps. and then my Livescore app said it needed GPServices. again a shopping app said it needed GPS to run. then I installed Gapps :|
So we're stuck with Google unless we reduce functionality way down?
Hm... I recall seeing a CM Apps option a while back and I am running AOSP on my N9005 - will have a look for it. Thanks for the Reply.

the best thing would be installing Pico or Nano version of GApps. Only Play store, Play Services and Contact Sync come with it.

While that sounds good, those are pretty much exactly the apps that crash the phone if you try to interfere with call/SMS permissions. What I am trying to find out is if it is possible to have a functional and useful phone WITHOUT having Google privy to everything I do.
Just because I am paranoid doesn't mean they're not after me.
You may or may not be interested in this talk by Snowden - think it's about halfway through where he discusses how the various companies have peeled away security for the alphabet agencies.

It's possible, but it'll depend on your definition of "functional".
I run my phone without gapps, and have calendar and contacts sync with my own server. I use syncthing for file sync, and open source for almost everything (Skype being one exception).
So for me it's fully functional, and the battery life is great. YMMV.

Without GApps where do you get your apps? I've been touring sites trying to find a decent one and also discovering apps to replace those with Google links. The issue currently seems to be many good apps still tie back into Play for updates or verification purposes.
For example I have SPenCommand from a Google+ site but updates can usually be manual - i.e. I could DL them on PC and copy them over. The problem would be needing to have a link to the site (I think) to licence check. But that's something I can ask the Dev about.
That sounds pretty close to what I need. Phone, Contacts, Calendar, preferably syncing to Outlook on PC but given I am also thinking of moving to Linux, not wedded to Outlook or MS Products, nor I guess even to live syncing. I WOULD like to have backups in case phone goes away suddenly, but I can learn to use Cloud - something I have been avoiding.
I like playing with ROMs and have just started a course in App development online - my thought was to set up a dual boot with a standard GApps setup for testing as well as an unlinked one for daily driver.
Been looking at Aptoide as a store that maybe i can use without a Google account. Seems to have quite a few categories of apps so i am currently trying to work out what I need versus what I want on my phone. I currently have quite a few apps that i haven't touched in months so I figure they are probably not needed.
Any suggestions on what you consider a must have app or app category?
One possible alternative to play store is Blackmarket. It works great and it has almost all the apps present in the play store. And its best feature is that it provides paid apps for free

Oops sorry i forgot about that. My bad. I will remember it now.
Hi.
I'm testing now the following approach.
With Titanium Backup I froze Google Play (not for Google Play Services because I'm testing) and use Aptoide and Uptodown apps to updating.
My issue is Google Play is ALWAYS changing its configs which I've set to "not update automatically" and lots of warnings on screen telling me Google Play or Play Services stopped working.
Also I'm testing whether other apps also stop working.
Aptoide and Uptodown apps obey much better and don't change its configs.
Am I right that all these stuff are related to Google Play, soon I'll be able to return here with a more affirmative answer.

Why i can't post my question on the main menu? Is cause i don't have the upgrade?
What has your post got to do with this message regarding warez ??
The US Library of Congress https://www.loc.gov/search/?in=&q=stereographs+&new=true has hundreds of historic stereographs that are freely available for download. There are other sources for these stereo images too.
I've found that I can copy these images to my phone and view them with Google Cardboard but there is no easy way to move from one image to the next. The Stereogram app requires the images be edited and adjusted. I'd rather keep it simple and just copy the images to my phone.
Please respond if you know of a simple Google Cardboard app that will allow me to copy several of these images to my phone and view them one at a time by clicking the button on the Cardboard.
If not that, would someone, familiar with the Google Cardboard APIs for Android, please contact me to discuss possible development of an app.
Thank you,

This is cool... let me know if you find something that works..
Im actually trying to fix my Note 5 config. for some reason the inter-lens distance is way to far apart and not usable anymore. Not sure what changed.

I found I can insert the slide images into a PowerPoint or Google Slide presentation and view them with Slide. They will advance with the Google Cardboard button. This isn't ideal. I'd still prefer an app, but at least it works.

Really cool resource! Didn't find a way to download more than one image at a time, would've been nice.
I'm the developer behind VRTV, posted about my beta here a couple of days ago. VRTV can show stereoscopic images, so it should work. You'll need the paid version to get buttons to switch to next/previous image unfortunately which a bit stupid for images to be honest.
It would be cool with a custom app for this though, that could browse the archives directly, and do some cleanup/straightening of the images. Don't think I have the time, but I'll let you know if I get around to it!
