[Q] Whatever happened with the Cider-Project? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
So, yeah, I read about this a year or so back, and added their site (www.cider-project.com) to followthatpage.com. For those who don't know what Cider is, check this out. (http://www.androidauthority.com/cider-run-ios-apps-android-380192/)
Followthatpage.com sends you an email if there are any changes to a webpage. So when I suddenly got a mail a few days back, about www.cider-project.com being updated, I was stoked.
However, the only change was that the page was gone.. No updates, no info, nothing.
So does anyone know what happened with the project?
Please feel free to move, or even delete this thread if it is in the wrong sub-forum, or have already been answered (I searched, and couldn't find any though).
But if you delete, please give me a short description of why, in PM.
That would be nice.
Thanks

Bump
I would like to know as well. There is supposedly a other one called iEMU but I can't actually find the apks or software anywhere. I feep like it's a hoax or never going to be finished.

Hey all, new here i have some questions

Hey all! I'm so glad i found this community it looks awesome! I'm new here and to the HTC hero G2 AND to the droid OS for that matter so i will have some pretty noobish questions , i will try to make it easy and list them in order so if you could please respond that way it would make it a lot easier on this noob as well
I am in the USA so i don't know if that will make a difference but i see a lot of other countries names in updates.
1. My device is the G2 obviously and its unlocked and i use my local carrier Cincinnati Bell and i'm pretty sure my phone is stock everything as far as firmware and what not. I still have 1.5 and i'm seeing people talk about 2.1, some say a message will automatically appear for the update but will it work since i'm not on T Mobile? if not how do i go about getting this?
2. What other types of software are there you recommend every G2 should have or that i can update to my phone to make it better, faster and just all around great, how would i go about doing this?
3. i've noticed when i go to albums for some reason there are 5 different albums just for my pictures which were all already on my sd card, and on my old phone were all just under the same album. The same for videos too there is 3 different ones for those too. Why are they all being seperated and how do i just make one entire album for all photos and one for videos? i've plugged the USB into my computer and opened my sd card and have seen the folders for all my music and photos so could when i add particular artists music on just create my own folder and put each artists music in their own folder? would it show up like that on my music player as being seperate? and could i do the same for pictures?
I realize i have quite a decent amount of questions and i apologize but i am new to the G2 and Droid in general as i've stated and i love the experience so far and i want to gain as much knowledge as possible so big thanks to anyone who helps me!
THANKS!!!

What exactly did you think it was? This is a developer community.. not a help desk.
I myself am not a developer.. I have a very small and limited amount of knowledge regards android.
I come here because I pick things up.. and occasionally when I have a problem I ask a question BUT only in the hope that the great and the good of this community feel like they have time to answer it.
Sure I wish I could be more welcoming to you.. I really do hope your problem gets solved.
Just dont expect it to get handed to you.. for example.. most of your questions can be answered in the hero wiki.. which is one quick search away from discovery.
Your initial question was polite and well formed.. however to follow it up with that statement just shows that you were being very disingenuous.
Again.. I hope someone takes the time to answer your several questions.

I've searched for forums for the Hero G2 and this is one of the only ones with activity i found. So i signed up, yes i know this is a development forum but if someone has the knowledge to develop for such a phone then it became common sense to me they would know answers to the questions i had. I did not mean to seem "disingenuous", its from the fact of taking a post like my last to get a response is why i did so. I wish someone from the first few views could of either 1. Helped me or 2. Said what you said and suggested somewhere or something else to help.
I don't mean to sound like an ass, just would really like help so it would be GREATLY appreciated if someone tried at least :-/
Ok i'll use my first post as an attempt to be useful, if only because i've read a whole lot from here and as yet written nowt
Now, first things first, being in the states do you have the G2 gsm hero, the one with the chin, or the US cdma sprint version? Makes a big difference if you want to do rooting.
Information searching for the hero doesn't have to come from active forums, many were hugely active when the phone first arrived and may not be so now, but much of the content is just as useful/relevant as it was then.
Oh, and i'm neither a dev, or a programmer or a techy phone expert, pc expert or any other expert come to that, just a hero owner that started much like you. Knowing nothing
Regarding the official 2.1 update, have no idea how it might arrive at your device, or mine as i'm not interested. Mine is rooted 1.5 with modaco 3.2 and it works just fine (and stable/reliable) for me, and does pretty much all i need it to do. The only exception being maybe bluetooth transfer.
When i got my hero it was the latest all singing, all dancing device that shamed most if not all other smartphones, eventually rooting it made it better, and unless i get to upgrade it every 6 months to me that's the way it'll stay.
I might go for a custom 2.1 rom at some point, be warned the official upgrade removes that possibility for the future, and even if you don't think you'll want to now, you may well change your mind once you've had the phone a while
How are the files stored on your sd card now? Separate folders are displayed separately. Contacts, downloads, camera shots etc I guess you could put them all in one folder but the album has an "all pictures" option anyway so why bother.
All my albums are stored in folders, with artwork, and just drag and drop into the music or mp3, can't recall what it's called right now, folder and display as whole albums in the player. If i want to create a folder just for one artists tracks then again it will display that "album" separately.
Works fine for me as i'm a whole album person rather than using playlists.
Any combination is possible, trial and error and personal preference time, but you wont break anything by trying.
Finally, have google work for you, or you tube, there's a heap of good stuff around, and more applications than my failing keyboard can mention hence rooting and apps2sd has unlimited my app count. No more worrying whether i can fit in that latest market find or what i have to delete first.
new batteries time before i launch this keyboard.....
Thank you! for someone trying to help... i'll soak all that in kind person, and i have the one with the chin

[Q] New to Android

Hi dudes!
I just bought my first Android phone - Huawei U8150 IDEOS. It has Froyo on it and it is "with Google" on the back, which by the reviews means that is with bold Android 2.2 and not with some apps from the manufacturer.
But, as this is my first phone on Google, I would like some recommendations for apps, security maybe, what to do with it, and of course some basics about the Android itself because I don't know nothing about it. Don't be angry at me for that, and I know that this is not the COOLEST phone (by coolest probably means most expensive ) but it is enough (given the money amount spent on it).
Am, also I live on the Balkan so probably some apps for US region may not work for me.
Any tip and info will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Am.....sorry if there is some other thread like this one out there, I searched and - no results, but again, I may be mistaken. So if there is something like this, please let me know and then close the thread. THANKS!
Bye!
SORRY GUYS, PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD AS I SEE THAT THIS IS NOT THE PLACE, I JUST SAW ANDROID ON MY PAGE SO I THOUGHT THIS IS IT. BUT IT IS THE CHEFS CENTRAL. SORRY AGAIN. BYE!
Closed as per OP's request.

[Q] Can't install apps to phone from Android Market website. Is it just me?

If anyone else is running MIUI 2.1.13 with the latest SiyahKernel, could you please try downloading/installing some app or another from the Android market website? Because I live in a 2g area, I have to download my apps from the website. Any time I try to search for an app in the Market on my phone, my connection times out. I have no wi-fi for the vast majority of my day, so that's also out.
I would really like to determine if this is a known issue or if this is an isolated problem. If it's isolated, I'll reflash in hopes that it will work. If not, I'd obviously rather not.
Did you look in that ROM's thread in Dev to see if anyone else reported a similar issue?
I searched the MIUI thread but didn't find anything. It's possible that I missed it, I suppose, but I don't know what else to search for other than what I already have.
Try to enable sync on all Google related services and then using the Market on the website.
If its turned off then it probably won't get pushed to your device.

Did you before you made this jerk response? Or did you just assume that help was already in that thread.
I made sure that all google services are free to sync as they wish. That didn't do it. I re-flashed MIUI. That didn't do it either, unfortunately.

New users come to xda and ask simple, common questions on a regular basis. It's not uncommon for someone with a low post count to dive straight into posting, rather than utilize the search button.

It didn't look like a jerk response to me. It looked like a reasonable response. He was merely pointing him in that direction to see if it might have been answered, especially since a lot of people on here don't bother to search.
As for the topic, my experience with MIUI is that all the apps never show up in the market, and is part of the reason I've never really stuck with it. It has to do with google not recognizing it as one of the standard UIs on their list for our phone, therefore not all the apps are shown. At least that's what I've seen explained in the past. Hope this helps.

Unlike your response, there was nothing jerky about mine. The guy has 8 posts. It's possible he might not have even thought to look where I pointed him. I said nothing derogatory to him. Any perceived jerkiness is in your head as evidenced by the two following posters. Don't bother with an apology as your screen name fits you perfectly.
Thread cleaned up...
Have the same issue as the author of this thread. Using Nexus S, Kalimchoaz's Rom v. 2.1. Does anyone have any solutions?
I was able to do it just fine on WIUI 2.1.13 -- I probably got around 80 apps that way. However, I was redownloading them and had previously already gotten them, so it may be different. I no longer have WIUI, so I can't check if I have your issue. I guess MIUI may be different than WIUI...

Google contact wanted

Hi,
does anybody have any contact to someone in google with who I'm able to talk about partnership regarding licensing google apps for android?
I'm trying to contact them since April 21st to every email address I could find on the net, but I didn't get any response.
Thing is I'm developing my rom for my hardware which is manufactured in China, based on Amlogic chipset, it is fully compatible with their tests and passes all of them...
Don't know what else to do... I'm thinking of writing a story about my experience and mail it to press..... maybe that will get to google...
Regards,
Stane

hey stane, perhaps you should try to contact everyone and everything you can find on the big www to get contact to "big G" sometimes...
Martin
Find those of them who are very active on Google Plus and make a post directed at them. I've gotten in contact with some of them from time to time that way - the way Plus is supposed to work and is awesome...

Sorry for that. I posted it under developer's section 'cause it's developer's issue, isn't it?
Never mind... Will have some updates regarding this issue... Seems lots of developers (at least in my country, don't know for others) have almost the same problems...

Not a problem (as long as it doesn't happen again ). I did leave it in development for a few days as I was 50/50 about whether it was the right place or not, so moving it now will probably give you twice the exposure.
Hope you get the answer you're looking for.

Mt3gs rom archive

Hey guys,
I was just contacted by TrueXDAnoob about a link to download SalsaSlde.
I checked my extremely old Minus.com account and to my surprise, everything was still there.
I have a rather large collection of ROMS for the Espresso, as well as my own MODS, there and since I don't use that account anymore, I won't be deleting them.
So for anyone who may need something for their Slide in the future, here are the links to help!
ROMS

STOCK FROYO MODS
http://min.us/mEspresso
GB MODS

If any devs come across it and want their work removed, please pm me and I will do so.

whoaaa didn't expect to see you here...hahaha you own this phone too?
Lol! Yup indeed I do! I was just lurking about back in the old days when this was new!
It's mostly a really good alarm clock now, but it still gets some use! I'm amazed at how well it still runs! If only my galaxy had the glass of the slide!

Hey everyone, I'm not sure why, but apparently all download links in the folders I posted no longer work. I can't even download if I'm logged in! I am trying to figure it out though. In anticipation of minus doing this purposely, please let me know if there is anything specific you would like a copy of. If I can regain access, ill upload it to a more reliable source.
Hopefully, it'll just be a server issue and everything will start working again as expected. But if it is not, please understand I do not intend to get anything more than the most important items and any requests. There is just too much and my available space elsewhere is going to be limited.
I apologize for this happening, but hopefully ill be able to salvage some of it. I will update with any new information here.

I have plenty of extra space on dev host I am not using, I can help if needed. Or have you signed up for the new copy.com site? If not, here is my referral link for 5 gigs more for both of us.

Thanks! Ill check that out when I get on my computer. Had not heard of it before.
I've emailed minus asking them about the situation. They claim to answer every email so hopefully ill know something soon.
Sent from my SGH-T999L using xda premium
Just a quick update.
Even though they advertise in large print on their contact page "We Answer Each and Every email", I have not heard anything back from minus.com.
I sent tbem another just a few minutes ago so I haven't given up. But it is not looking good and I doubt ill get anything back.
When I signed hp, I chose them because they promised to NEVER delete a file. Well apparently this is one of several things they promised but didnt deliver on.
In protest, I have to recommend that no one ever use this service! They even removed their faq page and the forum where people could get support.
Im really sorry to anyone present and future who may have needed this stuff. I will give it a little more time for them to answer before asking a mod to close this thread though.
