[Q] Spritz - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A quick search here brought nothing up what i'm looking for. so here's my question(s):
is there yet an app for android out with spritz-technology?
is the comunity aware of that interesting approach of reading technic?
does someone already digging into that stuff?
rumors saying samsung s5 and gear2 will be delivered with spritz technology preinstalled.

OpenSpritz-Android
"OpenSpritz-Android is a Spritz-like .epub reader for Android 3.0+ (API 11)."
It doesn't come in a pre-compiled APk from what I can tell. I am looking in to how to compile it to an APK now--but I have no experience in it.
Please post a link if someone can get an APK for it. I would love to use it!
search for open spritz android on github, because aparently XDA won't let me post links until I have posted more...

I see why there's not just an app for it yet. It would require book files to be loaded like ROMs, which is not an attractive option to most folks.
Once it's integrated with a Kindle app for instance, it'll really take off.
I think someone should work it into a public-domain library to start off. A public domain kindle style app with spritz as one of 2 options to read. I'd love to work thru the public domain classics.

Found this Spritz App clone - more of a proof of concept i guess - but has source code and an installable APK as well - but only works with txt files

Tried the Kpritz clone version. It works but it's not really ready for prime time. Love the concept though! I hope the dev works on it a bit more.

The source code on github under OnlyInAmerica/OpenSpritz is posted on the Google Play Market under the name "Glance." You can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pro.dbro.openspritz

The best one to implement this I've found is called "Balto Speed Reading", link to the Play Store app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=balto.wolf.speedreading&hl=en

Using Spritz
Can i use Spritz technology in my app ?
I won't use Spritz code - it's simple similar implementation.

Alternative Market?

I've got a simple question that perhaps somebody could answer. I know that there are some alternative markets available on the net...some of which look exactly like the android market. I was curious to know if there is some kinda open source project (or the like) for a custom alternative market.
The reason I ask is because it would come in great handy for my business. We have a few in-house apps that are currently distributed to managers as APKs via email. It would be great if we could have a central market for which managers can update our apps from as opposed to manually sending them out, at which point they must be installed manually.
I thought I saw something a while back about some type of market framework, but now I can't find any reference to it.
Any information on this subject would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not sure that I've understood completely what you meant, but you can check out Handster or the new Facebook-based Market - ESDN.
I think he is thinking of an app that would allow him to distribute apks to "in-house" business phones.
There are lots of "market-like" apps out there - SlideME, Amazon Appstore, Handster, etc. I haven't seen or heard of any market software that is open-source, however.
Alrighty...I guess it was worth a shot. Though it would be pretty cool if something like that existed. Thanks for the replies guys.

If you wish, you can try this..

While that is an alternative market, it's not exactly what I was looking for. I'm looking for an open source alternative which would enable me to use my own repository.
I think my search has ended though...I came across an open source project call aptoide:aptoide.com
It does enable me to setup my own repository, and I think that's what I'll be going with.
Interesting... looks like I'll be adding a new element to my primary source server as well.
An alternative would be to use dropbox and allow your people to sideload the apps. The phones would have to be provisioned to do so, however.
AppBrain is real good.
Aptoid and apktor - google for them.
Aptoid.com have a php script to generate xml file for android clients, but somehow it did not work for me.
See aptoid.com server section.
Im thinking about python script, but i dont have any programming skills
Dude just go to blapkmarket.com
Thats it. Your problems are solved

Moving to Q&A
I recently discovered (and published an app on) moborobo market. It looks interesting.
Another recent market I tried is opera market.

I have an APK App suggestion...

Hi!
Well, I just had an idea for a very useful app for android that might be shared on the marketplace as well!
There's this website called webehigh . com ... it's like the travel encyclopedia of marijuana/cannabis/hash around the globe! I often read through various placemarks on that website, mostly for knowledge and sometimes for need... it's quite fun to know about *legality, *where to buy, *prices and brands etc of cannabis. The site's not been updated since 2008, but the info's quite relevant. I just wanted to make an app out of the content on there...
for the app I was hoping to create a database kind of app where a user could search countrywise/citywise through the information and display the appropriate page for each town. For this purpose, I'm not sure whether the format of each page including the front page along with links and advertisement would allow a suitable apk to be made... So I thought of creating new html / php / text files, whatever suitable, and links them all in the database as seperate towns... but I don't know how an app is made for android and what kind of town's page format would suffice in generating the required result...
So I thought I'd ask you for this.... any online tool or offline program that could let me create this app without any programming code knowledge, or if you could create this app, then it would be great! I'm currently downloading the whole site with "httrack" - an offline website downloader. And then as per your reply, I'll change all the pages to a apk friendly format.
Basically, this is supposed to be an offline reference app for people who read webehigh. Since the website is not being updated.. I was thinking of making an offline app for this... There are many marijuana related apps on the android market... so I'm sure publishing this app won't be a big hassle!!
Thanks for any help.

Would anyone like to compile an app for me?

Or perhaps help me to help my co-worker to compile the app for me, as he's had a go and he says it says a library is missing even though the source code includes the library. I don't know the specifics (I'll ask tomorrow), but perhaps if you're giving this a go you'll encounter the same issue.
So the app is Permission Denied over on Google Code. It's on Google Play for a few quid, but unfortunately not on any app stores where I can buy it (like Amazon). There are a few APKs floating around online, including on Google Code, but they're all either dodgy or too old to work on Jelly Bean.
Any takers?
Thanks
The source includes the needed library, yes, but you need to bind the library to your project (more info in the RootTools web).
Thanks man. I'll pass the info on
(Sent from a mobile device)
Hmm, looks like my last post is dated 1970 :-/
Anyway our app developer has given up trying to compile the app for me, which I think either says he doesn't like me, or he's not very good. I'm pretty sure it's both.
Would anyone here like to help out if it's not much trouble? Thanks

Reboot Android TV App

Howdy all,
I have had this app ready to publish for several months now, and I finally found the time to actually publish it. It's too bad that it's not nearly as useful now as it was when I made it. But I hope that someone else can benefit from the work as well.
