Hello everyone. I need help. I just found out that one of my friend can detect my location with 'something'. Not sure but I think he detects my phone location. I dont share any location to him. But he can actually detect my exact location and how far am I from his location. And he knows anyone location not just me. So I really need to know how to this. Its kind of awesome stuff. Really looking forward to any kind of way to do this. And yes Ive search the net and the forum. just a bunch of stupid survey and ad stuff. thanks in advance.....

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.

Great, thank you!
Hello everyone,
I didn't ever code anything, but I feel now it's my time to do so. I have one idea, and it's based about interactive map app. My plan is to do map of my city, and to offer any company, object, etc. their location in that map. My city is largely visited by tourists around the world, and I think everyone who owns business would be interesed to find their spot on that map (I wouldn't ask them for big payment). So, as I am rookie in coding, can you recommend me how to start. What map should I use (I need one that I can change and adjust as I wish), how much time I'll need.
If anyone here had to deal with something like this, any suggestion, tip and help would be welcomed.
Regards,
Adin

Hi, thanks for using XDA assist!
First, please create an account so you can post in other forums.
Have a look through the forums here:

Good luck!
I consider myself a rational intelligent man but I find this site insanely complex, non-intuitive,an extremely frustrating! After sleepless hours and hours and hours and hours of trying to familiarise myself with this place, this 64 year old man is sitting here in tears trying to find his last post among other simple tasks attempted. Does there not exist here, a simple starting tutorial to introduce one to the basic workings of this place? Please help.
My problems partially solved.
My problems partially solved ...
I FINALLY found a downloadable and functional apk for this forum's app (Google Play store will not play with my device at present ... That is one of the reasons that I am here) ... and that is helping me a LOT!
Perhaps it would be a good idea for you to make it a point to strongly recommend the XDA forums app to newly arriving members here.
I TRULY think that the website UI here could use some development to make it much more new-user-friendly, however.
... Another point ...
Maybe I am missing some kind of search filtering option, but, I do not see any value in hundreds of thousands of non-applicable and irrelevant search results when trying to find something here. Perhaps someone could direct me to such filtering options if they do, indeed, exist.
In closing, I must say that the reception I received when joining here was very pleasant and I am already on my way via some help
and advice from a couple of members here to solve my crashed Play Store problem.

I personally find hundreds of thousands of non applicable and irrelevant search results on very specifically searched items very very very unhelpful...

You should be able to see all your previous posts in your profile and link to the thread there. Xda is confusing unless you know what u want from it. For me if i have a question i just pop it in xda search bar and relevant threads pop up. But if u want to learn everything then u have to come up with a specific thing first theres not really a guide to it all. But u should be able to find almost anything with the right search. If not post question in a help or q&a thread. I will help just let me know what u r looking for

I simply HAD to tether to my PC as I simply CANNOT function on this site via my smartphone ... it is HORRENDOUS. I can't even figure out how to THANK people hardly or reply to their help ...
DAYAM ... what takes seconds here takes HOURS there ... SO MANY BUGS ... photo verification of reply to prove I am not a robot half way off the farking page ... and MANY MANY other concerns.
The help is great but the UI is SO unfriendly !
Anyways ... thank you for your responses and I will be much less tense now that I am on my PC
No I know how to tether ... but I have not been bothering even when at home. I have been so stupid til now. I was just emphasizing how much easier it is to communicate with this site from a large computer, monitor and keyboard is all.
Thanks tho

Hello,
I have finally joined the forum hoping to find out what if anything if going on with my phone. I have several screen shots of various instances that seem out of the ordinary. To top it off I found a ton of txt files with my phones information on it from Maa360. I desperately want to know if I'm under an administrators account and am possibly being monitored. All the way down. To my Gmail email. I think there is an administrator account over me there too. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Personally, I think you might just be paranoid.
I have no idea what you mean by "having an administrator account" over you.

The experts there nay be able to help.
basically, i live in australia and lately the centrelink website has been really unreliable, so i figured i would use an android emu platform to run the centrelink express plus app, the problem is no matter what i have tried, none of them will let me set it up... wondering if anyone has any ideas on why i can't run it on any of the emu platforms i have tried, used genymotion, andy, bluestacks and NOX, i get to the point where i need to answer one of my secret questions, but there is no button to click or anything once i get that far so i can't use the app at all....
