[app] InTask Mobile - looking for Beta testers

Hi Guys,
I'm so excited!!!! my first piece of art for the Android community is just about to rise to the world.... yeah!
So, what is it?
It's a task management software (a kind of Todo list)
Who needs yet another ToDo list application - it's boring
No - it's a special kind of application
In what way?
Android users from all over the world can create work groups and share tasks with each other - in real time!
Cool! where can we get it?
I attached the first version (BETA) and it's free for use - you will never be charged for it and you can use it as much as you like.
Also attached a help file (word document) explaining how to use this app. an updated version can be downloaded from my website: intaskrnd.com
In return I only ask for your help in finding bugs and giving me cool ideas for new features
Thank you so much my Andro-brothers!
Technologies used:
1. Java & ADK for developing the application
2. Sqlite - tasks storage
3. MySql - middlware for tasks messaging between group members
4. C# - web services distributing system
5. XMPP - push notifications for saving battery life (using asmack lib)
6. Fun, Fun, Fun

[DEMO/SCENE][2.2+] Lights!

Hi there xda! I thought I'd post here in this section too! Hehe!
This is my 4th scene demo, and this one also works on (besides Windows):
- Android
- Tizen
- iOS
- Windows Phone 8
- Linux
- OS X
I have developed 3 cool audio-themed demos in the past, for Windows only. Incidentally, it's been almost 3 years since the last one I made! I thought it'd be nice to go back to my old habit of wasting time on such demos. Without any further ado, check it out:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.bagnz0r.Lights
You can also get it here (for other platforms too):
http://sakuradroid.org/demo/'
YouTube (better watch it running live though):
I'll build it for other platforms tomorrow.
For the record, I have just uploaded the darn thing so it will take a few hours for play store to chew it on.
Right now I need some sleep.
Reviews much appreciated!

[APP][4.1+][Material Design][12/04] kcalCulate

​
Hey there,
starting out as a little research project about new Google Material Design, I ended up rewriting and old little app of mine using as much of Material Design as possible on Android 4.1+ devices.
kcalCulate is an personal caloric need calculator, BMI calculator & weight diary.
You want to keep track of your weight, want to know, how many calories you should eat every day to reach your goals?
Calculate how many calories you should eat per day, depending on your body measurements, your fitness activites and your day to day business.
Keep track of your progress and check yourself developing over time.
kcalCulate comes with three different charts to show you your weight, kcal and BMI.
That beeing said, you can use it as your personal weight diary and stay motivated.​
Additionally, kcalCulate calculates your BMI (Body Mass Index) and gives you a rating.
Select activites from a wide variaty of possibilitys. If you have a lot of them, you can use up to 4 different ones.
Specific goals can be gaining weight, losing weight or keep your weight.
Measurements can be entered either in metric units (cm/kg) or imperial units (inch/lbs).
(Please note, it's inch not [feet]'[inch])
kcalCulate includes advertising, placed at the bottom of a Scrollview, so you won't see if often, and another one below the progress charts.
kcalCulate also comes with In-App Billing (for supporting further development and getting rid of the ads). Them two are the reasons for the needed permissions.
Furthermore kcalCulate uses Google Analyticts, as the stock developer console statistics kind of suck!
Information about used libs and pictures can be found within the app

Enjoy it!

If you come across any bugs/errors/layout problems, please don' hesitate to inform me!
Changelog
1.01 - Fix for errors on devices running Android 5 Lollipop
1.02 - Changes on the logo
Uploaded Version 1.01 to Playstore. Will be there within the next few hours.
This one fixes an error with InApp-Billing on devices running Android 5 Lollipop, as the initial query already lead to a FC. Can somebody running on Lollipop please confirm the fix? I don't have a device running 5.0.
Version 1.02 is up on Playstore. Did some changes to the logo, namely: circular icon instead of just the plane piece of cake.

Looking forward to some mentor.

Hello,
I am just getting started with android & I am aiming at building a new version of this Piano Tiles game.
App store name: Don't touch the white tile.
I recently went through java so, I don't really have any experience in the same. I am looking forward to some mentor, to guide me on how do I move into this. I think android studio would be better suited for this task but I am not sure.
Can you just give me the libraries, classes, functions & related things to care about & possibly the steps involved ? I think I can collect the knowledge and create a logic around this.
Eagerly looking forward to a thoughtful response.

[DISCUSSION] Black hat and Ads install network will kill the Android platform!

Hi XDA!
Maybe this sounds weird but hang on, I'm bean working on a fitness app 24/7 for the last 5 month and the app is getting pretty nice if you ask me.
The app is called Runbit and focus on a completly new way of running by placing stars on the map around you. I've also added extra option for hunting animals and escaping from monsters. Beside being a great looking app I've added support for the Android Wear with full map support witch are pretty insane compared to Runkeeper, Nike+ and so on..
Now comes the problem the app have around 3900 downloads on the Android platform. My question is why I'm not getting more downloads, Looking at the top30 list in Android the apps looks like crap built in 1 week and pretty obvious some black hat / ads network have boost the app to reach over 500k downloads in a month or so. Is it even possible to reach a decent user base without a budget like Nike or some blackhat magic or click farm?
First place a user looks for new apps is the top list but if "app install ads" have boost crap to the top list what will happen in the long run?
Thanks and have a nice day!
ps. If you would like to leave som feedback on Runbit or see with your own eye
