How to Reach 500,000,000 Customers Using Huawei Developer Tools

How to Reach 500,000,000 Customers Using Huawei Developer Tools - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Huawei Mobile Services, or HMS, is Huawei’s alternative to GMS, consisting of user-facing apps as well as core background services. The idea behind HMS is the same as that of GMS — to provide an experience that is consistent across devices and independent of the platform update. Much like how GMS is made up of app elements and core elements, the HMS ecosystem comprises of HMS Apps, the HMS Core, and the HMS Capabilities that the Core enables through its available APIs.

HMS Ecosystem has seen its monthly average users increase from 420 Million globally in July 2018 to a huge 530 Million by July 2019, while developers registered on this platform grew from 450,000 to 910,000 in the same time period, and HMS Core app integration grew from 20,000 apps to 43,000 apps. Google does not release figures for its GMS integrations, so getting scale here is difficult against the #1 player, but these are still impressive figures in absolute terms. According to additional figures revealed by Huawei, HMS Core has a global reach of 530 Million users in more than 170 countries (including China), while still providing features such as cost-effectiveness, a unified portal for one-stop integration, and precise user targeting through multiple promotion channels. Huawei also claims to be compliant with international security and privacy standards, including GAPP, GDPR, and local regulations within its ambit.
All of this will merely remain marketing points if HMS Core does not incorporate the APIs that GMS Core provides. In order to be a replacement for GMS Core, HMS Core needs to provide similar, if not better, functionality to developers, if it wishes to persuade them to consider itself as a valid option and migrate over from using GMS Core. HMS Ecosystem is currently limited only to Huawei devices, but even on its own, this is a massive subset of Android devices. Huawei alone has shipped over 200 Million smartphones this year so far, which is a substantially large number for app developers to take notice. As an app developer, it becomes essential to adapt to these devices as well as other Huawei devices that may not ship with GMS in the future. Even if GMS makes a return to Huawei, HMS continues to be part of Huawei’s larger ecosystem strategy, where the smartphone becomes the central focal point that is used to control connected IoT devices. So adapting your app to play well with the HMS Ecosystem does make a compelling business argument. You don’t want to make the same mistakes that Snapchat did when it ignored its Android userbase for years and only woke up to pay attention to them very recently.

WARNING: This post contains rumors and speculation from Android Insiders. If you do not want to know about Android 4.2 then do not read this story and unplug from the Internets. You have been warned – the goods are after the jump. Thanks to androidandme for digging this up!
There is so much to cover in this rumor report that we are going to use a slightly different format. We will list each rumored feature individually and then break it down before moving on to the next.
NEW NEXUS PROGRAM
Rumor: As previously reported, any manufacturer can produce a Nexus device or a Nexus version of an existing device. They work closely with Google on the hardware and driver details (there is a more efficient solution for this in 5.0), but Google is responsible for the updates (don’t know how the carriers factor in). The phones don’t necessarily have to have “Nexus” as part of their name, it works more like a certificate like “HD Ready”.
The devices have to fulfill some basic requirements. The phone has to ship with a stock version of Android, it needs to have the hardware power to run all “Nexus Games”, and they have to support Google Wallet, aka have NFC.
There are two carrots on a stick that probably make the Nexus brand a huge selling point. Google Play gets expanded with a media streaming service component and there will be games that only work on Nexus devices. The streaming service uses the secure memory, making it harder to pirate the content. No word of the type or source of the media, but it seems to be a big deal.
Speculation: This info is all over the map, but it lines up with previous reports. It sounds like Google is going to encourage manufacturers to join their Nexus program, but it will be optional. If manufacturers meet a list of requirements, then they can become Nexus certified and gain access to new services and features.
It almost sounds like the list of requirements that Google currently places on OEMs in order for them to gain access to Google services like the Play store. This will now create a second tier certification program that manufactures have the choice of participating in. OEMs can offer a device that meets the basic requirements and gain access to the Google Play store, and if they include additional elements they get access to the Nexus certification
NEW CUSTOMIZATION CENTER
Rumor: There is a new Customization Center, where you can change ringtones, language packs, background, launchers, and so on. There is nothing too sophisticated (for now). The center is mainly a convenient way to enable the average customer to do some basic customizations. The range of options can be expanded via Google Play of course. However, there are two new features: templates that change the appearance of all (newly introduced) dynamic icons at once, and post filters that change the appearance of the whole UI – think of Instagram.
The manufacturers may provide their custom UI through the Customization Center, but they don’t have to. When Google upgrades Android and a manufacturer fails to provide a compatible version of their custom UI the device reverts simply to the stock UI (or the user waits with the upgrade until the manufacturer catches up).
Speculation: This sounds like a dream come true. Google may have finally provided a solution to the manufactures that allows consumers to update the base Android operating system, without having to wait on the OEMs to update their skins.
NEW PROJECT ROADRUNNER
Rumor: There is major effort to improve the battery life called Project Roadrunner.
Speculation: Details are pretty light on this one, but it sounds like Project Roadrunner will enhance battery life the same way that Project Butter enhanced the overall responsiveness in Android 4.1.
UPDATED GOOGLE PLAY
Rumor: Google Play is enhanced with new features like personalized search, optional promotional campaigns with notification center integration, more billing options, and easier in-app micro-transactions.
Speculation: We don’t have much to add, but we like anything that will help developers generate more revenue.
UPDATED GOOGLE NOW
Rumor: Google Now provides help for basic OS functions, aka “Where can I activate bluetooth?” or “How can I tone down the brightness?”, to make it easy for newbies to settle in.
Speculation: No surprise here. Google said they would be updating Google Now and we expected to be able to control system level functions.
UPDATED VIDEO PLAYER
Rumor: The stock video player app gets a major revamp and provides new APIs for other video services to tie in.
Speculation: Again there is not much to add, but androidandme believe this is part of a bigger media streaming service that Google will soon offer.
DRIVE-BY CONCLUSIONS
Please keep in mind that all of this should only be considered a rumor, but this source has been on the money with previous information. Some of the details are so specific that I have a hard time believing they are just making this up as they go along. The source also shared quite a bit of information about Android 5.0 that we left out so we could focus on the next release.
Hello users with Android 4.2.
By now we are certain that Google has handed out new Nexus devices to their employees who are currently testing Android 4.2. Androidandme have monitored quite a few visits to their site over the last month, but the number of hits from Android 4.2 really started to pick up this week.
I’m not sure if I believe every detail that is included with this report, but all the signs are pointing to some major changes to the Nexus program and the core Android OS. Some of these changes are so big that we wonder if they will even be included with Android 4.2 or be held for Android 5.0.
We previously speculated that a lot of the things in Android 4.2 would be geared towards laying the groundwork for Android 5.0. It is possible that a lot of these new features will only be visible on Nexus devices, while standard devices would be left without them.
The whole concept of a Nexus certification program sounds like Google is putting their foot down and taking more control of the Android experience. Even though the program might optional, hopefully the consumers will realize the benefits of a “Nexus ready” device versus something that is just Android-based.

This sounds neat

HUAWEI Location Kit, Providing Your Apps with Powerful Locating Capabilities

In the mobile Internet era, locating is now required everywhere for situations such as calling a taxi, ordering takeout, sharing a location, and finding out information about a tourist spot, all of which require precise user locations. HUAWEI Location Kit provides your app with powerful locating capabilities so it can provide your users with more convenient and precise location-based services.
What Is HUAWEI Location Kit?
HUAWEI Location Kit triangulates your app user to a precise location faster and more accurately through GPS, Wi-Fi, and base stations, extending your reach to even more and diverse users from around the world.

What Are HUAWEI Location Kit's Open Capabilities?
Currently, HUAWEI Location Kit opens three main capabilities to you: fused location, geo-fencing, and activity identification. What are their strengths?
1. Fused location: fast, accurate, and precise
The fused location capability combines super GPS, Wi-Fi, and base stations. It provides a set of simple and easy-to-use APIs for your app to locate your user quickly and precisely. Locating takes less than a second and boasts a success rate of 99%. In addition, the power consumption of your app can be significantly reduced through offline locating.
2. Super GPS for superb accuracy
Fused location uses the industry-leading super GPS technology, which can locate the exact side of the street where the user is located. As skyscrapers become increasingly omnipresent in cities, a superb locating accuracy is a necessity for taxi-hailing apps in order for users not to miss their taxi just because it is on the other side of the street. HUAWEI Location Kit is a good choice to solve this problem due to its superb locating accuracy. If your app is a navigation or taxi-hailing app, Location Kit powered by super GPS can hugely improve user experience. For users wanting to get a taxi or find out how to get from one place to another, an app integrated with Location Kit is perfect for seeing which side of the street they are on and improving its accuracy even further.
3. Geo-fencing for location awareness
The geo-fencing capability enables you to specify a particular area and configure rules for it in your app. When the app user leaves, enters, or stays in this specified area, your app can send notifications to the user to provide a more tailored experience. For example, you can specify a business district in your app and when the user enters the business district, your app can send the user a greeting or information about an in-store promotion. Geo-fencing is also applicable for attendance check-ins that would allow the user to check in and register their attendance when they enter the specified geofence area. In addition, Location Kit supports on-chip geo-fencing, which consumes 35% less power than app processor geo-fencing.
4. Activity identification for detecting the status and changes of the user's activity
Activity identification is particularly useful when integrated into health, fitness, and lifestyle apps. Huawei devices have multiple sensors, such as gyroscopes and acceleration sensors, which can provide low-power signals for your apps to identify user activities, such as when they are standing still, walking, running, cycling, and driving. Your app can adjust the UI based on the user activity status to provide users with tailored and precise services.
Locating Experience Improvement for Global Developers and Users
HUAWEI Location Kit has so far covered transport, food, lifestyle, tourism, and accommodation scenarios, just to name a few. In the future, it will be continuously optimized for multi-scenario and multi-mode locating to provide more precise locating services for developers and users. In addition, apps integrated with Location Kit in HMS Core are continuously increasing. Take OneMap as an example. An authoritative national map app from the Singapore Land Authority, OneMap provides detailed map information for local users. After integrating Location Kit, OneMap can locate its users quickly and precisely with a success rate of 99% and can provide transport information for users based on their location, considerably improving user experience and its popularity among users. Wongnai, a lifestyle app in Thailand, can be used to order takeout and find restaurants, hotels, and tourism attractions, as well as for other lifestyle services. After integrating Location Kit powered by the super GPS technology, Wongnai can precisely locate its users even when they are located near skyscrapers, considerably improving the overall efficiency of the takeout delivery. In addition, Wongnai can easily satisfy user requirements for finding good restaurants nearby or ordering delicious food from restaurants a bit further away. Huawei welcomes you to integrate Location Kit into your app to build a global locating capability so you can provide fast and precise locating experiences and services for your users around the world.
How Can I Integrate Location Kit?
