Are there currently any apps for android that give you the airdrop experience?
This would help me to
That will probably be something that will be more than likely developed by AOSP as part of the new OS, rather than an app developed by a third party.

I don't know if anyone has figured out the network paths that iMessage uses, but would it be at all possible for someone to build an app that would link in with iMessage, but work on Android? Or is that impossible, kind of like FaceTime?
I don't this such a app exists (yet?).
An alternative to android to android users would be "Whatsapp Messenger"
I have a feeling Apple has some authorization thing built into iMessage. I'm sure if someone can maybe clone it somehow since the OS X iMessage beta is now out.
There can be a chance.
I was actually thinking about doing something like that but sadly I have some experience with app development.
My company has a mobileconfig that they have built that allows users to log into our VPN from the iPhone. Unfortunately my company only has this setup for the iPhone and not for Android. Is there an app or something that I can do to convert the mobileconfig to Android?
how is this not fixed
Bump...
2014 and this still isn't fixed
There is nothing to fix. It is something built for Apple by someone else. You will have to get them to build it for your OS of choice but don't expect Android to be high on the list.
well when i always scroll through theme/apps i saw a lot of ported apps (multiwindow and stuff) for XXLSJ
But i wonder is it possible that these apps could be ported to cm/aokp/aosp??
It might sound unique, but this wasn’t the first time I’ve seen something like this. In fact, back in February the CyanogenMod team were considering adding a similar service called “Cornerstone” until Google threatened consequences for implementing this service on devices that Google supported.
What Cornerstone and Samsung Multi-Window share is the ability to truly multitask in a windowed environment. While Cornerstone is certainly more robust than Multi-Window, allowing you to create multiple panes and even retain access to the home screen, the effect that the services have on apps is fairly similar. The apps are forced into nonstandard views, which could potentially cause a poor experience.
When the Android team, specifically software engineer Dianne Hackborn, saw plans to implement Cornerstone into the next version of CyanogenMod it became abundantly clear that there were those at Google who did not want this to happen. Hackborn’s comments regarding the announcement began as a plea not to implement a potentially disruptive system and ended with direct threats, complete with consequences should the team move forward with Cornerstone.

Hello,
First of all I would like to say that I'm completely new to android (except for the occasional dabblin on a friends phone) so please go easy on me. I am tech savy, but just never had anything to do with this platform, due to my not so nice opinion of google...
I am on blackberry passport and am/was a loyal bb customer with all that follows. But please I do not wish to start android vs bb vs ios etc thread. It is a matter of taste in the end.
So long story short, never had anything to do with IOS or android as I prefered BB for security, productivity and slimeline OS. However due to recent BB swithc to android and priv (which id god awful imho) and apparent abandonment of OS10 i am faced with increasing frustraton over current passport usage as it is more and more laggy problematic every day. So seeming that bb has abandoned os10 I have finnaly decided that perhaps it is a time for a different platform.
I am considering getting the oneplus 3.
So my questions are:
- What kernel and ROM to flash? I explicitly do not want anything to do with google or google services, i do not have gmail and have no intentions to open one. I do not use any service connected to google, no cloud sync, no FB, no instagram etc.... I want my phone google free, bloatware, spyware, ads free, cloud sync free etc. so basically I want as much control over what is installed as possible, with preferably NO personal info shared to any service.
- What is the most open source build? (coming from a viewpoint that google is evil, apple too.. I am putting my trust in the open source community) - replicant project peaked my interest, but the supported phones are too old and too few. I would be extremely pleased tho, if sth like this existed for newer phones.
- Encryption is a must, both of memory and communication (pgp)
- advanced app permission control is a must
- if there exist sth like BB hub or other similar true multitasking option even better
to put it simply, what custom rom and kernel to flash to get the most secure, opensource, google and similar companies free phone with maximum control over os and no to minimum personal info shared.
I would very much appreciate if you could point me in the right direction. As i said no experiance with android, but am quick learner and tech savy. so no need to dumb it down for me.
Thank you !!
Hi dears,
It's my first post here and I'm very excited about this
I have more than 15 years experience in programming and I developing Android Apps since 3 years ago.
In my new job in a company, we have devices that produce in China. This device is an android tablet just like as other android tablets. We have some apps that just play music and video from our servers for our customers in free and paid mode.
Now we think that maybe it's better if we make a custom Android OS for our tablets that just have our apps and nothing more. And even users can not install new apps or change settings or other customization on our tablets.
Now I want to know is it possible with creating a new ROM or I must be worked deeply on android os and what do you think in general?
From where I can start and what's the roadmap for this project?
Thanks in advanced,
AndroiderMan
