[Q] Finding an app developer - General Topics

I want to find an android app developer for a project we have on at the moment.
Is there a forum here where developers advertise their availability for paid work?
Apologies if this has been covered before, I did a search and just found the occational random thread along the lines of "I need an app developer to do......"

[Q] Creating an App

I want to create an app for a forum that I visit a lot, problem is I don't know where to start. I want it to kinda do what the app for this site does, Pulls new threads, news topics so on... Thanks in advance for the directions.
There is an app called Tapatalk for that. Just check whether the forum is supported or not. If not just ask the forum's owner to apply the plugin. You don't need to go all the way to app dev for that.

[IDEA] XDA Dev Community License

Just having a thought here, why dont we create a XDA Developer Association License or (XDAL)
So instead of all the Devs posting huge long diclaimers in every post why not just create one standard XDA Developer Association License (XDAL) and simply put
"Standard Disclaimers: GPL and XDAL Apply"
Good idea...maybe, Bad idea.....possibly but it would make things alot cleaner and give our devs a little bit more protection.
Thread moved in General discussion -> Questions and Answers
not really a question but, ur the boss
And why to not use already existing licenses? Actually I don't like GPL, so I wouldn't use XDAL defined as above. Maybe split it to: XDAL-GPL, XDAL-BSD, XDAL-Apache? Looks funny, don't you think?

[Q] How to publish a device-specific .apk?

Apologies if this question has been answered elsewhere, I was unable to find it. Also, I'm a n00b, so xda wouldn't let me post this in the developer forums.
I need to publish an .apk to the Android Market that is specific to a particular hardware model. I've looked at the Market Filters documentation (at developer.android.com/guide/appendix/market-filters.html), but could not figure out how to filter based on a specific device.
At run-time, you can query "android.os.Build.MODEL", which is great... but I need the market to use that data to filter.

[Completed] [Q] Request to link Android app to website

I am posting in this forum because i have given up trying to find an answer to this perplexing problem. As explained below i have searched and asked everywhere with no results at all. Hope you can get this going for me ...
I have this message from The Google Play Team in my Webmaster Tools Dashboard/Messages ...
Google Play: Your link request has been sent Mar 18, 2015
Dear developer of com.webs.mdawdy.HTMLSpy,
Your request to link Android application com.webs.mdawdy.HTMLSpy has been sent to the webmaster of http://www.freewebs.com/mdawdy/. You will be notified again when it is approved.
Sincerely,
The Google Play Team
Two questions ...
1. That was a week and a half ago and i have not received an approval notification so i am unsure if i have missed some detail?
2. I have another app in the app store that i wish to link as well. However, i have no idea how or where i sent the link request referenced in the message?
I understand that i do not own the root and i am not the webmaster at www.freewebs.com where i host my website, but i suppose depending on how you interpret terminology i am the webmaster of my website there. But i do not know if that is a problem as i have not been able to find even a single person who is familiar with this message. And it is curious that this has occurred for just one of my two apps.
I have been all over Google Play, Google Webmasters, my website FAQs, general Google search, Google Play Developer Console, various forums including XDA and Android Central, and FAQs for several days now and i have not found any information or source for this message. I would really like to know how it came about so that i can deal with it. I think that i did not explicitly make the request, that it is an side effect of something that i did. The closest i can think of is in the Google Play Developer Console where i list my website, but i find nothing there about making a link.
Anyway, if you have any info at all about this, about linking your play store app to your website, please let me know.
Any help appreciated,
Mick
Perhaps i should explain a little better what info i have received ...
At Google Webmaster i was told it is a Google Play problem since that is where the message originated and that i should go there.
At Google Play there is no forum for developers; none of the info and FAQs relate to this topic
At Android Central they said it is a user forum not developers, suggested xda
The general Google search turned up info about links between lots of things but not developer apps and websites
Nothing on this topic in the help forums at freewebs
I posted two days ago in one of the xda forums - 25 views no replys ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/marketing-analytics/app-stores
It is a mystery.

[Completed] Support for the official XDA forum app?

Hi,
I am looking for the right place to get support for the official XDA developer app on android.
I could not identify where I can get this here on the site.
I looked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps
and here: http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-android-app/
but neither provided a clear location where to ask questions about the app.
My question is how to add favorite forums/threads in the app (or on the web for that matter). There is a heart symbol on top the the app screen and I have no idea how to use that.
thanks!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
You can subscribe to any forum or thread. To do that from the mobile app, simply click on the start (or heart) symbol that appears on the status bar while you're viewing that forum or thread, or long-press on the thread/forum name and select "subscribe" from the menu.. To view your subscribed threads from a browser, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/subscription.php. For each subscription, you can select various options such as whether you want to be informed of new post by email weekly, daily, immediately or not at all. If you select not to be notified, the subscribed threads/forums become a list of "favorites" to which you can refer quickly. For matters dealing with the xda-developers.com site or any of it components and tools, visit the "About xda-developers.com" forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/about-xda. If you have specific questions about the XDA Android Apps, ask in the "XDA Android App - Problems / Bugs / Feature Requests etc." thread there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841646.
Good luck!
Thanks for the reply & help! I was not aware that "favorites" = "subscriptions". I was looking for another button to make a forum a favorite. It's clear now.
