Hi there! I'm a videogames developer and I would like to know how difficutl is to make a chrome extension...I don't take a look at the documentation yet
Thanks!
Did you mean Web Extension type of Chrome extension? In such case this is not mobile/Android development, but sort of web development

Hi,
I would like to automate the following task on my Android 2.1 device (Nook Simple Touch):
1. Once a week go a website (in an invisible browser in the background)
2. Type user name and password in a form on that site
3. Wait until you get forwarded by the website
4. Click on a download link and save the file to a certain location on the sdcard.
Is there any easy way to do this without having to write a full application?
I tried googling but it is one of those cases where it is not really clear what to search for. I found the Android scripting engine, but this seems as complicated as making a full app.
If any of you have an idea I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

EDIT: In case anyone is interested: A newspaper I have a subscription to is publishing an epub version of their newspaper every week. I would like to automatically save this epub file to my Nook Simple Touch.
i tried to look for an answer for you.
I dont think this is possible, without writing a special app for that.
please tell us (if you can), the name of the magazine, maybe it can help!
I suggest you look into Tasker. It can automate a lot of stuff... and, just maybe, do what you want. I don't know enough to say it can or not.
I would get information from the gurus, first. You can find discussion groups through the developer's site. If it sounds possible (and/or someone provides you with a template), then you can try the trial version to see if it works.
Hello guys,
My friend wrote a small book, he has it in a PDF form. It's about 60MBs. I want a way to publish it as an Android app, so people can download it and read his book. The app is technically extremely simple as it only shows this PDF.
Any idea how to create this app minding that we never created any application before?
Thanks.
Hi,
I doubt that I'm the first one to think about this but I couldn't find anything useful trying to search for it, so here is what I'm looking for:
Is there an app that I can use to share a number of apps I installed on a webpage including QR-codes, GPlay-links, short descriptions etc.? The apps I know of mostly share text only and/or links but none I found allow me to generate a webpage (or use a site for this) which has all the info in a neat, organized way so that my friends can read the descriptions and decide which apps to download from there.
AppBrain's API has an app widget that would be somewhat fitting but 1) there is no app to automatically create those based on a list of apps on your phone and 2) it requires people to use AppBrain, which some people don't like.
Basically, I'd like to have it created automatically and look like the ones used by Android Police (but with links to Play-Store only and no need for ratings)
Anyone know an app like that?
TIA

Since I got no replies, I went ahead and put together a crude PHP script to convert a list containing Market/Play-links to a webpage and to host that list on PasteHTML.com in case you want to share it with someone (since I don't have the hosting for that). If you are interested, you can check it out here (sorry if it's slow, it's running on my home server). I'm still looking for an app that could do this though but for now this is better than nothing
Hello fellow XDA's,
I know it's maybe stupid to ask you for this - but i feel little confused when i am looking for information about "how to build a web browser for windows phone8" so i was thinking if is it possible to share some old code for beginners.
Looking for easy web browser just for training purposes:good:
You might be able to find some old ones floating around, though probably not anything for the new frameworks (WP8.1, etc.).
The usual and easy approach is to start with a simple XAML app that has a WebBrowser control filling most of the layout. Then you add whatever controls you want (URL bar, etc.) around that, wire up the relevant events and any data storage you want to have (bookmarks, data synch, etc.) in the back-end C# or VB pages.
If you want to get Fancy and try implementing a different rendering engine than the built-in IE-based one... well, good luck! You'll need to do quite a lot of work just to port one to Windows Phone, although WebKit minus the JavaScript JIT should be possible (it was ported for RT last year). Then you'd need to create a XAML control to display it, or else use the DirectX APIs to draw it directly in a C++ app.
Hello, I am looking Android App Development help please.
I would like to make an Android TV box app and was wondering if I can get some help creating one with the following requirements;
1) Looking for a Template, for starters, so I don't have to code one from scratch since I have no idea of what I'm doing
2) Configure the app to utilize a Username/Password which verifies the account on a server database that I control.
3) Hopefully it will be easy to include a link within the code that reaches out to an XML file on my server or whatever where I have a list of Video Streams/Feeds that the app reads and you can select what video you want to play.
Thank you
Hi I'm not an android coder but a c# coder in terms of a template project, something like this? https://github.com/hitherejoe/AndroidTvBoilerplate
I just searched android TV boilerplate (a boilerplate is template). Hope it helped.
