[Q] Question industrialization devices Android - General Questions and Answers

Hi there,
Good news for me and for the android community, my company decided to replace all blackberry devices by android devices (Normally by 3 model Samsung.)
Of course, this must be done quickly.
We have around 1000 devices to replace.
My question is : How can we create a "master" to industrialize the process ?
One device needs a lot of "tuning". Like applications of course, launch bar shortcut, desktop to personnalise... I guess one device need at least 45 minutes to be ready for the user. This is not really good
We have BES10 has a MDM. But as you know, BES10 can't totally manage Android devices.
Is there a way to clone a device ? With all applications and custom settings ?
Many thanks.
NB : I hope the general section will be the good one.

No way to do that ?

up ? maybe a magical application to do that ?

S/W Newbie. If you have a moment

Hello
In the begining there was the XDA, and then the XDAII, and now, in the post to me as we speak (I hope) is the XDAIIs.
Ive spent the past hour surfing around this site, and been quite amazed at some of the things you guys and gals can make these devices do. A recent change in company has moved me from my beloved hardware engineering onto software, nothing spectacular at the moment, editing .ini, .bat, .exe and a few other types of files. It has however got me interested in playing with my phone, but the problem is I don't know where to start, I see programs called mkrom which need to run on a unix like system (which I don't have) and RomKitchen ?
Are there any recomendations on a place to start ? whether its online tutorial or a good book you have bought from somewhere, and I mean books that start from the very bottom of the pile. Again, I know bits and pieces but nothing substantial in this area.
At the moment its more the applications for the today screen I`m interested in.
Any info will be much appreciated
All the best
Nikki

mate, regarding "At the moment its more the applications for the today screen I`m interested in. Any info will be much appreciated"
there are loads of apps you can put on the today screen such as:
1) animated today - animation on your today screen
2) today launch apps - allows you to put icons / shortcuts to your favorite applications
3) weather
4) phone profiles
5) system information showing you amount of memory used, battery remaining, program terminator or switcher
6) nothing on your today screen...just the background pic/theme
7) world time which displays around 6 times zones
8) quotes
9) games on the today screen (e.g. baseball...but if you ask me i'd go for footy)
10) note screen for scribbling
11) let's see....oh you can also put a different kind of clock or date format
12) calendar or task summary
13) and a whole bunch of others...
no need to buy anything really; just hop on over to the 02 and xda websites...not to mention this forum as your means of gaining tons of info.

the faq does not satisfy my needs!!!
dear bravo2zero the faq available does not explain everything
it only covers 2 old pdas what about the blue angel & what are the diffrence in the
Rom version
radio version
Protocol version
ExtRom version
Where can we find the tools to edit it ?? & what each tool can do ??
if i'm reading a post i have to open 6 or 7 windows at a time & follow links to many diffrent sites...
Where can we find all in 1 tidy place ??!!!
Thanks
Thats the beauty of it. There is no one single place since this forum evolves out of everyone's contribution. This isn't like a commercial website that offers downloads in a nice structured way. Like everyone else, you just have to read through a lot of posts to get to where you want to be.

Two questions in one piece for S5600

First question : Is there any accelerometer bublle level like the incredible android one for Jave J2M Samsung S5600 (Player Star) phone ? Or anyway, is there any solution to port this app from adroid to java Mobile ? I got the source jar if anyone is interested to have a look inside. It does not lauch on my mobile, certainly due to protection and very different Android OS...
Second question :
I would like to find a way for overriding the Exe/jave/games/folder to point it to my mmc sdcard ? Is there a way to do it via nv_default.ini without bricking the phone ? A better solution would be to offer both databse update search and and thos two path in ?!
I'm really not familliar with this phone OS, so if there anyone who can tell me if this system is modifiable or modable, just let me know...
Free Bonus Question : I also have a nice HTC touch P3450, wich has been succesfully updated to the latest avaible firmware. I dont know if this phone have an accelerometer ? Can anyone tell it to me ? I don't think so because none of the apps are hanging this feature, but i'm asking it also

[Q] Best set of bundled apps

Hi guys, I am planning to jump ship to windows phone and searched the forums for an answer but can't find any. I would like to know which oem from htc/samsung/nokia has the most useful bundled apps ? How regularly are they updated ? Is it possible for oems to extend the functionality of the OS ?
That's a hard question to answer. HTC's existing apps are pretty good and updated frequently enough (e.g. HTC's Tango app appeared the other day )
But I would guess that Nokia will continue their push for at least a while now that they have teamed up with Windows/Microsoft. They have their Maps/Drive combo which is pretty good and also their own Music app/hub.
Different people will have different views.

[Q] Multiple Device Deployment - Questions

First - Sorry if this is in the wrong spot. I thought about putting it in the Nexus 7 Q&A but I figured this isn't really device specific, more OS specific.
I'm deploying about 25 Nexus 7s to a classroom in the coming week. There's the 4.2.1 update, which I'm planning on just doing through fastboot & the nexus 7 toolkit rather than waiting for each device to boot, connect to wifi, wait for updates... and that whole process.
The question I have is more around customization of the OS across those devices. I'd like to add a couple apps (Kindle / B&N) and also pre-configure the Wifi. Can I do that, then take a nandroid and apply it across all 25 devices - or will that duplicate device IDs and cause weird issues later? If that's not the best way to do this - any recommendations on the best way to handle a multi-device deployment?
Thanks!

Which Android-Smartphone?

Hello all forum-members!
I am new in this forum and I don't know how to root a smartphone.
I have seen this in YouTube:
....ttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fhCoY7nOTaE
and I want to do exactly this also (sorry that I have deleted the first letter of this link, but as a newbie I don't may write complete links).
Now I have this smartphone: Vodafone Smart 4G with Android 4.2.2
Unfortunately my smartphone is not supported from Android Auto, so I'm looking for a new smartphone.
I live in Germany and I'm looking for a new smartphone with:
1.: a removable accumulator (battery)
2.: which is supported from Android Auto (the smartphone must have Android 5, better Android 6, perhaps Android 7)
3.: which is not expensive (I think 200 Euros maximum).
4.: with maximum a 5"-display (if possible not more than 5") and if it's possible with at least hd-resolution (1080x720 pixel)
5.: with at least a quad-core-processor
6.: with minimum 2GB RAM and minimum 16 GB ROM.
7.: with a microSD-slot
Which smartphone has all these features and it is also possible to root it very easy without using a computer (because I have only an old notebook with Windows XP)?
I hope that I don't ask too much and I wish me a lot of good ideas and good answers.
