Hey! Just curious. Does anyone know who exactly is behind the Go apps development? I've had a quick search, found the Go Dev Team site, and linked through to 3G.cn. But I'm still wondering who is behind the extensive development these apps required. While I totally believe in community development they seem to be offering a lot for free, and with cloud storage/backup for sms and other personal phone data, should I be cautious?

As you've said, Go Dev Team is behind the development of Go Apps.

Sorry in advance if this has specifically been addressed. Doing a quick search didn't seem to cover it.
And I started an exact thread over in the Inspire 4G General forum, not knowing where to post it. As I understand, this would be a better place to post this question.
Is it possible for the experts here in XDA to write something into Android's code to allow for a Reply All feature in SMS, like in iPhone's SMS? I'm thinking the Reply All feature must be unfixable because there is conversations all over the internet for people requesting Google to fix it. Some have even stayed with Apple because they would miss that feature too much.

There are 3rd party apps working on this. Only google will be able to add the function to the default and to be honest it doesn't seem high on the list
Scroll to the bottom - some hope it seems..

Thanks for the link. Hopefully this gets put into Google's basic code and baked into Android.

Indeed this supposedly is put into AOSP JB 4.2 ROM's natively now. I just hope I can get a ROM for my Inspire, but if not, at least it'll be there for future and some present phones.
Hello guys im Master Teacher of Fitness & Nutrition and Biomechanical analys of the human body.
What im looking for is for someone who can develope Android APPs for the Market.
The Application will be very simple will work offline just will have all writen the tricks how to get killer body not only abs and some tricks also all excercises will be shown and explained how to be done and when etc.
The main reason to want this is because there are already plenty apps like this but mostly in them are writen general things not the real one and not well explained.
i will not say here all but will be not FREE and both Me and the Developer will be happy on the final.
If someone is interested and have some time contact me and we can discusse it will explain more in P.M what is the general idea. And why the app will be prefered.
PM'ed you
Not a development thread. Moved to General.

Do you still need this
I am in process of developing an application and I was wondering if there is a way to capture users information automatically. I am drawing up a spec of application functions that I am going to have a dev team produce so I do not have app dev skillsets. That being said...
My idea was that if an user downloads an application, starts it, and the app is automatically populated with the users' phone number, name, etc any basic information automatically. Google pairs the phone with specific accounts that store such information so the data is there. I am looking for a less intrusive way and more user friendly way of creating accounts rather than direct social media login integration.
Is this something that is viable? or is it against data laws? or not possible?
Please let me know if you know of any existing methods, or if you think it is even impossible.
THANKS! :highfive:

Thanks a lot! Now I will definitely not receive any feedback... How is this not a dev question... :silly:
I know I'm not supposed to ask questions here, but it is a development question, whereas all the questions in the Q&A are regarding people's personal phones/issues. Hopefully this is appropriate:
I love the way the new G+ app presents information on cards, and especially the scrolling (the way it slides the cards up and the ones below it quickly flip up and follow it, etc).
Now lets say I wanted to make a separate app that presents information in the same way; for sake of an example: Lets say I wanted to present facebook posts in the same visual card style that is used in G+ app. Is the source code for the G+ app available/obtainable, and can it be changed around to perform such a task?
Sorry for the newbie question.. I'm just getting into programming (starting with java courses)..
Even though it's a question about development, all questions should be in Q&A forums. As per forum rules only development releases should be posted in development forums.

Some of us do not install G**gle apps (incl Play). We use instead F-Droid and APKPure.
But some apps insist that they require Play... it's not a technical requirement, just one they throw in there, but it's a real problem as I am not going to install Play just for that.
Does anyone know of a Play 'placeholder' or 'simulator' which will satisfy this specious requirement? Or has anyone decompiled an app to remove this requirement?
Recommendations?

Apparently you haven't actually tried this. There is very little depth of knowledge about things Android, in general. We are fortunate here to have a competent dev and some competent users. This is rare.
It is unusual to not be at all dependent on G**gle, and I am happy to help with what I know about freeing yourself completely. But there are some catches, and the question I'm asking is the last one for me.
I can probably figure it out for myself, but when forced to do that I am not as inclined to share if sharing (or even trying) is not part of the ethos..
So can we can, or can we can't? :cyclops:

Try MicroG. Your purpose will be solved without installing any GAPPS.

Always share helpful info.
I believe the response the person made was a legit argument basically being made to help direct you to find a better place with much higher odds of getting an answer (looks like you got it tho).
But that doesn't mean you can't ask or can't share. It's all up to you. Sharing knowledge is the foundation this forum has thrived in. Personally I hope nothing defers anyone to question that regardless of any responses made or not made.
And yes, this is an excellent dev. But he's here to help primarily with his area of expertise, which according to the thread title is with Havoc issues. He can't be relied upon to answer non ROM questions (yet he probably would if he knew).
@Quantumstate,
I had to move your question and the corresponding answers to a specific thread (your thread now) to "Android Development and Hacking Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" because the thread where you posted initially was not the best place to ask.
I have named the thread "How to get rid of Playstore requirement for some apps?" because I had to fill a subject (is mandatory) but feel free to edit the title yourself if it's not OK for you.
Also, I suggest you to read THIS THREAD by @Oswald Boelcke, you could eventually find some clues there. If not maybe Oswald Boelcke or any other members (developers or not) here should be able to help you in this new Q&A thread
Thanks for understanding

@Quantumstate I just realised that @Wood Man pinged me and pointed you to my thread. Feel free to ask me in my thread or certainly here whatever you want to know. But I assume you first have a lot of reading ahead.
Additionally to my thread, I'd like to drag your attention to some more XDA threads in this context. In these threads are also links to Github/Gitlab including excellent tutorials. If you want you'll be able to leave Google services or requirements in many although not all cases behind; however, it also depends of the ROM(s) you use. This means if you commence a discussion please also provide insight into details of your device, system and configuration.

Last remark: On none of our devices, any Google service or application is installed. But all of our application run fine without and by the use of µG instead. The very few application, from which I expect push notifications, do receive them on time via GCM/FCM.
The one and only Google application, which I've installed, is the Google Play Store modified by Setalphia, the developer of above linked NanoDroid. It allows me easy access and updates of my applications purchased on Google PS respectively to conduct in-app purchases that I mainly do in order to support a good development and developer unless the developer offers different means of donation.
I knew we could count on you Oswald :highfive:
