[Q] Android Equivilant of DistoWatch - General Questions and Answers

I'm interested to know if there are any equivalents to DistroWatch for Android or if anyone is working on a similar project that allows users to see which roms are gaining the most downloads or users, and to track trends in popularity over time. I've searched around on Google, and haven't found anything, or course I know that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Thanks,
Kevin

Android Apps Database

Hi,
Just have a noob Android user question.
Like for winmo devices, there are a lot of sites where we get commercial games and apps crakced and for free.
Is something like this possible for Android as well?
P.S. I don't mean anything wrong, but just something came to my mind. I still support the android app developers by buying the apps.
Sure
Android is a bit of a unique community.
Yes, you'll find them. You can find packages of 100's of them on your usual torrent sites, newsgroups, etc.
And sometimes, as a member of this community, you'll find developers post their .apk on the board, simply to retrieve feedback.
But we want Android developers to thrive - therefore we buy our apps if we can.
And please do so as well.
Thanks for the response.
good to know!

[Q] Android on HTY-4242+

Hello people.
I have an HTY-4242+. It is NOT the original one, but a chinese clone as seen in some other posts around here.
All other posts I've seen talk about WM ready images, but I would like to know if anyone here has or knows how to do an Android image for this mobile.
I have only basic information about the hardware, so It would be very valuable if someone could share the BSPs. This way I could put my own brain to work instead of boring you people.
Any clues are wellcome.
Really thanks.

[Q] Another calorie counter app?

Hello to all on this forum.
I have a Flash application that I want to develop into an Android app. I would not require some of the bells and whistles that are currently on the application, but a simple sub-set of how it works now. The flash application can be found here:
FastFood.com/nutrition/
(Hope this URL is allowed here as it will help people understand what I want to do.)
I have all the source files and programming for this and hoped they would be of some help in developing the Android app. But of course, I have no idea if this is any help at all to whoever develops the app for me.
Anyway, before trying to source a developer to do this for me, I thought I should ask a few questions to see if this is even something practical. So I hope some of you can give me some guidance regarding my questions.
1) Are most applications stand alone in the mobile phone, or is it common for some of these apps to access the network to get the necessary data required to operate? My purpose requires a database that is currently 14 megs, and must be accessible to the app, although only small portions of it are needed at any one time.
2) Are there varying systems within the Android family, or versions of the operating system that need to be accounted for?
3) Are there good reasons to develop for both Android and iPhone together? I mean from a cost to develop point of view? Or would it likely be just as effective to develop for Android, then move on to iPhone, or others, as is appropriate?
4) I am guessing that if you have looked at the flash version of our Calorie Counter, you could probably give an educated guess as to what it might cost to replicate a scaled down version for Android. So please, take a stab at it if you can.
Thanks

[Resolved] [Q] can i install iOS on Android

Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and this is my first post
I have a Huawei Ascend Y320 (Android 4.2 Jellybean, dual-core processor etc), and I have heard that it is possible to run iOS on an Android device.
I have seen a similar thread discussing this topic... but the 'how-to' link in the thread does not load the desired page
I have also found this through a Google search 'iosonandroid' However the page forces one to make purchases for products and services that I don't want and don't furthermore trust.
So, that brings me back to my question, can one run iOS on Android...?
Please don't knock me for this, as though I quite like Android OS, I need to access iOS apps, such as 'iMovie', and other similar video editing/movie making software.
Android has many apps for such purposes, however, most are merely clones of Androids' stock Movie Maker, which has limited abilities, and can be quite buggy. I have managed to find a couple of great video editing/movie making apps on Google Play, but I would still be keen to be able install iOS apps to broaden my capabilities.
Any constructive help would be much appreciated
Cheers,
Harry
I'm going to answer your question quickly before someone thinks it'll be funny to troll you.
Sadly I will have to say, you cannot run iOS on Android, some developers have found a way to run iOS apps on Android but they haven't released much info on that.
The sites that say, you can run it. They're all bullcrap and just want you to register and fill out surveys. If there was iOS for Android, I'm sure it'd be on YouTube, and here on xda.
So again, you can't run iOS on Android.

Thanks for that Glad I got a 'straight to the point' answer from you, I really appreciate that.
I have seen evidence of heavy trolling on other threads... which makes it extremely difficult for people like myself trying to work out a solution to a query or problem.
And yes, I did wonder about the survey/register blah blah spam on the 'iOS on Android' website. I am glad I did not go through with the process, as it seems especially dodgy considering there is no way of contacting the dev....
Exactly, and the thing is, there is no specification for the device. It just has pictures of samsung and htc phones with the iOS screenshot and then the requirements on the page is based on Android OS versions... And it supports eclair. Lol.
Maybe sometime in future some smart developer will figure out how to run iOS on Android.

You Cannot frun IOS on any android device!! the most you can do is use a launcher or try few apps that (i guess) emulate ios apps

ios apps on samsung galaxy s7 edge?

Hi guys, i've been looking online all morning for a way to find a proper emulator that will help me use ios apps on android. i am looking specifically in using imovie which has the automatic function to create a small video with effects and everything. I've seen many people talking about iEMU but also other people saying it's been taken down and the source should not be trusted. Was just wondering is there a walk around to this. or not possible at all? The phone is not rooted and i prefer not to root it anytime soon. If it could be done on rooted phone only it's ok tho because i have a rooted s6 edge. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks
Use HTC Zoe instead. Does a great job in creating videos.
iOS emulator for Android
You can easily find many advertisement, who say that, this and that iOS emulator is best for you. But still iEMU and Cider APK are the best iOS emulators in it's class with the fearture: they provides you parallel interface to iOS device, authorize you to download and easy run iOS applications on your Android device. Where there is pro, it is also cons.
There are few limitations related to storage capacity, Android versions and compatibility of these apps in your Android device. For information related to these cons you can check PruhTech.com I am sure it will help you out to clear your doubts
Thanks
