interaction between app and website - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok so in my app i need to upload a video to a third party website. i don't want to open a web view and have the user do it.
how can i do it automatically with the app? i don't have any code to display since i don't even know where to start with the process. i was thinking if i can type the filesystem location of the video like you can in windows
such as {
input text 'c:/users/desktop/video.mp4'
then upload }
then i would just need to know how to automatically fill in form data if that would be easier. this is hard to explain so patience and understanding is appreciated. all help welcome
Is a third party website so i have no access to API

Any help?

[Q] Android Photo FTP sync and gallery

So I'm looking for an android app that will let me upload pictures to a remote FTP server automatically, not necessarily sync with the phone but just upload the pictures and skip any that are of the same file name; this is not so hard to find.
But also (preferably in the same app) I need to be able to view the pictures on said FTP remotely and in a nice smooth way, perhaps some kind of forward buffer so that you can do a gallery.
Finally, I need to be able to view the pictures on the FTP server (and again, if in the same app - awesome!) and multi-select some of them to download back to the device.
Does anyone know if something like this exists? I want to avoid things like Picasa as I am concerned about security and I know my FTP server is in my house; not in 'the cloud'.
As a side thought:
Alternatively, I could store them on a remote FTP server where I have unlimited storage space but security is the issue here, I'd need to password protect and possible protect by using something to make sure only certain devices could access the files. But then, I need to be able to view it on my android phone; perhaps an HTML5 application could do this effectively.... I'd prefer to use an app though for viewing.
Although it is quite late, I just passed by and see that I have same problem as you before. And I use "SyncMe Wireless" to solve this problem. It's very fast (than cloud sync), and easy to use. Try it.

[Q] HELP - how to create a android video chat app

Hello,
I am trying to build an android application that included a live video chat function. Users will log in, select the person they want to chat with and connect. Then once the call has finished they will be requested to complete a form providing feedback.
This is just one function of the app so I am worried about using these sites that provide the service of video chat as I would need to be able to incorporate it in to the app as appose to that being the only function of the app. In many ways the app will function a lot like skype in that all users will have a profile. But I would like the option of having ‘1 to many’ calls not just ‘1 to 1’.
I am a complete novice. Please could you advise me how I would go about creating this? What software to use to build my app (preferably free) what server system I would need to use etc.
I do hope you can help.

Very Simple Database App

hello, I want to create my own database app. I often have to store my customers and clients data. I want to create an app that allow me to store clients data. Just a simple form type.

Is there any easiest way to create app like this or any existing app that can allow me to do all this.
I am not a programmer or developer.
Please help me.
Thanks in Advance.

Their are a few ways to look at it.
1: How is the login suppose to function?
2: Client side or Server side?
3: The main login files are normally stored sever side.
4: What programming language and or crm are you using?
5: What ever your using for the base operation login would be where you will seek the help for that enviroment.
6: If you are logging in to anything.. Then you would go through a program you made or a web page viewed.
7: Are you trying to Api through apps to jack the login information to login to multiple places? Or one place?
8: Your question is good ,but you need to specify exactly what you want to do ,and the outcome.
9: Are you programing an apk app?
10: Are you making a ROM or ?
11: If you want a user to fly across from Google or Facebook then you would basically intercept the Api of the login and act as if your the actual program. That type of thing is Api related.
12: Every program has it's own programming and api calls and functions... Also special folders Vendor specific.....
Sorta like hacking the vendors api...
That would evolve into security protocols being tampered with. That's why they don't give out that information. But you could sniff the packets via a computer and send and receive responses and also do some reverse engineering on the Api.
Deep level stuff.
Not something people will just answer.
The answer is in the question please tell us from beginning to end what it is you want to accomplish.

How to check exactly which URL an app is landing me on?

Hi. When I make payments on computer browsers, I can see exactly what URL an app has redirected me to. This helps me ensure that I have not landed on some phishing site. But when I make payments using Android apps, I can't see URL of the landing sites because they don't open in browsers; rather the apps use their own GUI to show everything. Here I can't be sure with whom am I sharing my bank details etc.
So is there a way in which Android addresses this issue or how can I check where my apps are exactly taking me to (URL) for payments etc?
Yes!
You may check the xml files of the app and find the link with the help of an app called XML VIEWER AND EDITOR.
