Hello everyone ,
First off, I apologize if this is the wrong type of question, but you are the only community I know that has the knowledge of the technical details am I looking for. I have asked this in several communities but failed to deliver a proper question and get a proper response.
Here is my train of thought, I hope you can follow:
So I have the presentation about mechanisms of online mobile app stores. I have to describe security and financial mechanisms (background asspects), protocols that are used when app is downloading from market. Also, I have to describe the architecture of that stores, although they don't have some unique architecture, but it describes their work as the principle. So, the main purpose of this presentation is to see how to implement online mobile app store and which technologies and protocols to use.
Thanks in advance

Dear xda community,
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself ...
My name is Tibor, (almost) 22 years old and I study media computer science in third Semester, so I'm not a novice programmer, which is also due to the fact that I am programming often and lovingly.
Now to my problem. I downloaded the Android SDK with all the trimmings because I have already been working with Android for a year. Since I am studying at the Technical University of Dresden and this system uses an enrollment which calls itself "jExam" and there's no app for it until today to go get one's test results, or to register or unregister for exercises, etc., I decided to tackle this probably unlikely serious matter.
The website looks like that you need to login first and foremost, and then comes in an overview.
I would like to implement this overview, and the respective content into the app. But since I am an absolute beginner in the App Development scene (someone with basic knowledge of Java!), I rely on help from the community.
Now I would like to know how it is possible first of all to transfer the data of my "login form" to the server and then later retrieve everything?
I would appreciate active participation on your part
Best regards, Tibor
(sorry for my bad english, I actually am from Germany)
Hi, everybody!
I’ve recently made an Android application : it’s a FREE app, built for a community website where i’m moderator (some of you might already know the spontex.org website or the iGoole gadget “Did you know” that brings “DYK”).
A “did-you-know” (DYK) or “le saviez-vous” (in french) is a piece of information that makes you rise an eyebrow, improve your own culture and appear smart within people.
But sometimes, we encounter some bugs and despite our many tests, yours will be quite helpful to wipe them all.
I’m trying to improve the security of the application and when it’s robust enough, we are willing to publish it under the terms of the GPL license.
The application is available in English and in French.
You can download it by searching "spontex" or "did you know" on the market
Hi all,
Don't all developers want to know if they can actually avoid Apple's and Android's 30% cut of all in-app purchases? Well I'm writing a project looking into this matter comparing in-app purchases vs external payment systems in apps. There are some different variables that comes in play, when studying whether it can boost the revenue to implement an external payment system.
One of the variables are the user perception of security. For that I created a very quick survey, that I really hope you will help me answer, for making my assumptions as close to reality as possible.
The survey can be found here:
docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFpyUXRrR0J1SE9BeE5jV2t1eFYxLWc6MQ#gid=0
I will of course present my findings afterwards, so I hope that all of you developers are as interested in this matter as I am.
Thanks in advance and thanks for a great site,

Thanks for the responses so far. It has been interesting reading your comments. If you have any ideas of other communities where this could be relevant to post, please feel free to distribute the link and initial text.
Thank you very much!
Hello!
My name is Grega and I am a student at University of Ljubljana Slovenia.
I am working on a research for my BSC thesis where I want to compare different frameworks for developing mobile applications
(i.e. Ionic, Xamarin, JQuery Mobile, ...).
To complete my thesis I require answers from actual developers who use mobile frameworks for , therefore I kindly ask you to answer to my survey, regarding some of the properties of frameworks.
LINK: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1nq5Uauo-YDR0Unf6pwyi8qz6sHZC8dGOvs6Phx3He0E/viewform
This survey is anonymous and will be used exclusively for academic purposes. All of the results will be presented only in an aggregated form.
If you are interested in the results of the survey, then I will be happy to send you the results.
Best Regards

Hello everyone,
We're trying to create a new open-source app distribution platform named Spheris, using blockchain technology. We are really interested in your thoughts – both devs and users. We're also open for possible collabs for those who are interested.
We’re utilizing Ethereum’s blockchain technology to build Spheris as a decentralized platform. This makes a lot of cool things possible:
No registration and transaction fees, as opposed to traditional app marketplaces who charge up to $100 for registration and 30% per each transaction. No technical restrictions or censorship. Optional anonymity. Forget about the need for credit card companies or banks – you will be able to buy and sell apps using our digital currency (Spheris tokens), with the option to exchange for other digital currencies (such as Ethereum or Bitcoin).
Customers will be able to purchase apps without going through registration and without credit cards. We’re also trying to accommodate devs whose apps have been removed from Google Play for questionable reasons.
Your Feedback = Extremely Important
We are in the early process of gathering valuable feedback from devs, and see if this is a platform that devs would like to be on. For users – do you guys see this as a platform you would buy apps from? Would love to start a discussion! For devs - have you had bad experiences with app stores (de-listing, ranking issues, not being accepted etc)? Does the concept of decentralization sound like something you might want to be a part of?
If you need more info, have a look at spheris.io or just ask me here.
Your questions and feedback are much appreciated,
Thanks
PS - apologies if this isn't the right forum for this topic!
