The Android operating system was first released by Google in 2008. It's an open-source software platform that allows many applications to run on various devices while sharing data across them via cloud computing services.
And your point is what exactly? Looks like you copied the first two lines on the history of android off of an article.

Sprint Launches Open Software Platform at Eighth Annual Application Developer Conference to Help Millions More Developers Create Products for Sprint Customers
The Sprint platform is an open, standards-based mobile Java ecosystem that extends desktop computing and Web 2.0 capabilities to devices operating on the Sprint Mobile Broadband Network. To get started, developers can access the full suite of Sprint Titan development resources at http://developer.sprint.com. It is the first of several open software platforms that Sprint will make available to developers.
The platform supports existing MIDP Java ME applications and adds the more capable CDC/Foundation Java Virtual Machine and OSGi framework for new high-capability applications. Support for the Eclipse embedded Rich Client (eRCP) application model means the platform can run generically written rich GUI applications across a broad range of devices and desktop computers. Support for the Widget application model provides Web developers the ability to develop rich Web applications that take full advantage of the device’s functionality. This allows developers to easily move Eclipse-based or Web applications from the desktop to Sprint devices. The platform also includes APIs to give developers access to Sprint-specific device features, such as location, messaging and multimedia, which can be useful in a variety of business- and consumer-oriented applications, such as field service or unified messaging.
As part of today’s launch, the platform is available with its own set of developer tools that plug in to Eclipse IDE and support both mobile and non-mobile application development and deployment. The toolset leverages existing server or desktop frameworks and provides on-device debugging and profiling, along with device emulation.
For enterprise customers, the open platform leverages the same JAVA application development framework that many customers already use for desktops and servers. This means applications can be easily extended to Sprint wireless devices with little resource training or additional investment beyond what is already in place today. In addition to extending enterprise applications to the mobile environment, the platform enables device management functionality so account administrators can remotely manage their devices and applications.
I hope I get to see more great apps on my Mogul!
Did you see this in the release notes?
"When installed, Sprint Titan uses roughly 10 MB of Program memory on your device. An additional 4MB may be required for the MIDP stack which is started when it is used for the first time. Using a lot of applications on top of both stacks may lead to vastly more required Program memory as the applications load resources. It is hard to determine the memory used by one single application since it can use a wide variety of available APIs and resources. You may experience low memory availability using Titan along
with other Windows Mobile applications on devices with less or equal to 48 MB of program memory (almost half of which is already used by the Windows Mobile OS and its standard services at device startup)."
No way I'm installing it.
I don't see why someone wouldn't just develop native win32 apps for windows mobile devices. Can't we already run java apps with jeodek?
Guys, good afternoon.
I'm doing a project where I need a web system, done in ASP.NET, to communicate with an android system.
Thus, the two systems will use the same database.
I came to find out about WEBSERVER, but I found this on a forum that left me a little confused:
"It is worth noting that the consumption of Web services on mobile devices is not recommended by the Android development team due to the processing overhead of SOAP calls. If you have control over the server, the ideal is to use REST-based architectures such as OData . "
It is not recommended to use webserver in android?
How then can I do to create that communication between the two systems?
Now appreciate everyone's help.
Hi devs~
Please help...
With a shell /launcher app. or by using any other software In an wifi only Android tablet device, can you:
1. Hide the "Application icon" so as to prevent the user from going into the drawer showing all of the installed applications and
launching any one of the apps. including the play store app. ?
2. Hide the "pull down menu" (notification menu on the top of the screen)?
3. Prevent addition of more pages to the home screen (only one page exists i.e. the home screen page)?
Are the above technically possible and does the MADA or any other agreement for using or distributing an Android OS device prevent you from doing this?
Also, according to the below mentioned article, Android is an open source OS which anyone can use...
So, does this mean that you can use the Android and even change it so as to realize the above mentioned features without ever dealing with Google and that Google would not
have any problems?
Search for the following article in the Google search: "Debunking four myths about Android, Google, and open-source"
"What it all means in sum is that Android is indeed an open-source operating system and that anyone—yes, even you — can use it as the basis for their own devices, applications, and services. As such, it's more open than Apple or Microsoft's mobile operating systems, and it's only significant open-source competitors, are — oh the irony — were actually built on AOSP."
Any comments and/or thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks to all...
This application for Android uses all the intelligence within the Koodous community to establish the security of the apps installed in android devices. The analysts or developers in the Koodous community can link their devices with their Koodous web account. This way only the rules made by them and by the analysts they are following will be applied to their devices. You can write your own rulesets and launch them against any APK of your choice, or just lets Koodous apply them for you on fresh APK samples. This is quite good tool for android developers . I have been trying this for days and looks awesome.

Hello,
Already for 6 months we are successfully working on the new way of monetization and Ad-less UX of websites with the help of mining in the browser. At the request of our partners, we have developed SDK for mining in Android mobile applications.
The kit allows easily to embed the miner in the application. The code of the miner is specially optimized for the android devices CPU for more effective mining
We will be glad to free share our developments of SDK for Android. If you want to join our beta test - welcome. Leave a message or your questions in this thread.
Android In-App VS Website Mining
The Mineralt team run tests and came to an interesting conclusion that the same mobile device CPU shows a larger hashrate, if it uses Mineralt Android SDK. In other words, monetization of mobile applications on Android with the mining is more profitable than monetization of sites and their mobile audience.
You can see results in our blog https:// mineralt.io/blog/why-is-it-more-profitable-to-use-mobile-miner-android-sdk/
