Hello,
I have a small issue i have some buses and i have glympse to track them i have a big issue with the 4 hour track limit its to hard to teach the drivers to use the software most of them a old.
so i am asking for help the options i can think of are
Pay someone to change the Glympse app it self so i can track for say 12 hours.
a remote log in option so i could log on the to android phone from the office and change it myself from the PC.
and or another software option the main reason need glympe is so i can have it on my website for schools to be able to track the bus, so if there is another app out there i need it to have the feature

Hi all,
I'm a noob app developer trying to do it for the first time. I'm trying to create an event calendar app for company's internal purposes. So that everyone in the company (which uses a lot of android phones) can be updated on company events that are coming up.
My approach is to create a database with MySQL for events input, and to use PHP to connect the database which is in a server and to push it to the android devices that are used in the office as that's how I found it in a tutorial from HelloAndroid.
My questions are:
1. is this the best approach to create such app?
2. Can I use Android's default calendar to input these events? if not is there some kind of calendar template that I can use to display the information to the users.
Probably will have more questions as I progress, but please help if anyone is more experienced in these matters than I am.
Thank you very much, and really appreciate the inputs that I'm gonna get
A simple solution would be to use Google Calendar.
By using GC you can add/edit events either from a PC (work or home) or your Mobile anywhere in the World.
All that is required is for someone to first set up the calendar on Google and push it out to all those who you want to see it.
This way you are not isolating anyone who does not have an Android Phone.
that's a really good point. Especially in a closed environment like an office. I didn't think of that before. THank you very much.
However, if let's say I want to try to build an app for that for public use, not just confined to limited numbers of people in a company.
Would that be the best approach or if there's any better way to approach it. I may decide to build the app after all just to learn and gain experience in app development.
thanks again for the feedback, really appreciate it.
I can't really give you advice on developing an App sorry.
All I can say is the method I mention is the one which I use to keep all my Operational Team (Surgeons/Doctors/Nurses/Admin/etc) updated and advised.
There's nothing short in you developing your own Calendar App but you would have to ensure it would be available to all and that includes anyone anywhere regardless of the fact they are at work, home, holiday, with Android or not, have a Phone, PC, Mac, etc... etc...
For that there's already a stable tool by the name of Google Calendar.
If you do develop one I'd still be interested in seeing what ideas you could bring into practice that would have a benefit over GC.
I understand your point of view, and actually you got me thinking, maybe if I really want to do the apps, I can create an app that calls the Gcalendar events, and display it from the app. I can find out the API to do that, and that would be much simpler.
Thank you again for your input, really appreciate i

No problem.... I wish you well on your venture.
Do please let us all know how you get on.. You never know, if it becomes that good I may even use it myself over the stock calendar App or any of the other's that already link to GC.
Just got an android project from supervisor and I have only 2 weeks to go to show him all the basic functions of the project, and I'm new to all these thing.
The idea of the project is to get peoples connected to each other without using internet connection, which meaning that we create and connect by our own network like LAN, and maybe others.
We need a database to store data like pictures and chat logs too.
So, my questions will be what kind of database/server we use for android application to store data ? and any ideas on create a own local area network or any kind of other network to get peoples who use the application connected ?

Sounds like you are probably going to get fired... How is it you have a job where you would be expected to do this.. but have no clue how to do it. 2 weeks is not long enough for you to "learn" android to do what you need to do. Id tell him now that you are cluless and need help otherwise , in 2 weeks when your project is due, he is going to be pretty dissapointed in your performance.
Better to admit you are a Dillard than try to cover it up.

Ops sorry my bad, I'm actually still a student , just that one of the lecturer assigned to be my supervisor and gave me one project before I graduate. Every students must finish a project before they graduate.
The program might not be perfect but at least it must be functioning.
I did some research and now I have some basic idea on developing android app.
Now I'll need any of you to guide me a little bit, about the database that will be used for android.
Example like creating a Registration interface, allow users to register but without internet connection, meaning that we use LAN or any other kind of connection.
Meaning that we create our own connection and get the users connected together.
Hey,
I'm trying to find a suitable Android (and if possible iOS) app so that I can share GPS location data with my family.
Basically in three days time a group of 5 of us want to link our devices to an app/account or something so that a few people can see where we are...
It would be preferable if the guests who we want to allow to see or locations don't have to login to any account or anything instead be able to visit a website permalink to see.
What choices do I have?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello everyone. I have a quick question...
I currently own and operate a valet parking company and I am looking to have an app created that will give our guests the ability to either scan, using QR scanner, or send a text to a dedicated device so that we can have their vehicle up front and ready for them, 15-20 minutes before they walk out the door.
That is the basics of it, and I know there are other apps in the playstore which do this sort of operation, but I want to create my own.
So my question is, and I have done some research on it within XDA, but wanted to seek the guidance of someone who has done this sort of work. What are my best options for creating and getting this app developed, running, and installed within android and iOS?
Hopefully I am asking this in the correct forum location, if not, please advise me where to post.
Thank You very much!

You can post your requirement on freelancer dot com and set your price. many freelancers are available to do the work.
Once the app is developed, you can publish your app in google play.

HELP REQUIRE
I have installed Airdroid app on my kids Samsung s7 edge in order to use Airdroid Mirror feature to monitor activity. It was working very well. Since my child is tech savey and this discover the software and uninstalled from the phone. Now I don't have access to his phone anymore. Child is using Instagram Direct messaging service for chatting or doing annoying photos exchange. As child is tech savy they chat on instagram and delete chat messages immediately.
REQUIREMENT: I WANT TO MIRROR MY CHILD PHONE SCREEN WITH MY LAPTOP/MOBILE WITHOUT DISCOVERING THE APP (totally hidden)
Somebody suggest that a good android expert can modify firmware so that Airdriod icon will not be visible and this will also not shown under application list. Totally hidden or stealth.
Is any body can help to to develop this or alternately suggest any other solution to replicate kid mobile screen remotely to laptop/mobile. The phone is rooted and I can flush the stock firmware
I am ready to pay for it and deeply appropriate your response.
Thanks

There's probably a better way to educate your child to be safe and responsible on the internet than to spy on him/her without his/her knowledge. He/she has a right to privacy. I'm sure you wouldn't like it if someone constantly spied on you without your knowledge. And your child wouldn't like it either.
i understand the message but its a need for specific purpose
I could be wrong, but I doubt any of the dev's here would do anything like this. There are far too many risks associated with supporting such a request.
