Need help with an app - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There is an app on android/ios that has a live feed. I want to know how I can fetch those via http requests. Is there a way to reverse engineer the app and find out the part in the ipa/apk which will allow me to read the code and find out what I need to do to get the data I need?
Www.Ipogo.app it has the iOS and Android version downloads and the feeds are right on screen

How to Push Information to My App

We've had some people develop and application for us. For now, our application uses static data that requires a manual update each time this data changes. Our plan in the future is to have this data updated automatically the instant this new data is available.
For now, is there a way like through some online cloud that I can link the application to? So, that way when I put the data online in this service thing, the application whenever it has a data connection or Wi-Fi pulls the new data?
For the future, what's the best way to set up this automated updates?
You could just host the update on the server u run the app from ...

Right, what if buying a physical server was really not a preferred option at this point, what else could be done?
You could add the Dropbox SDK or Amazon S3 SDK to your project.
For example with Dropbox you could create a folder for your account dedicated towards this application. With the correct code you can then have the application download / synchronize the files in this project folder with your device.
That may be the easiest solution if you don't want to get down and dirty with your own server.

Okay... Thank you. This helps.
In response to the message you sent me.
Yes you can use Excel files. You can use whatever you'd like, but you just have to worry about how you plan to use the data when you receive it.
For example, maybe you've got an Excel file that has 10 rows of data initially and you want to update it to a newer version that has 20 rows of data. Using one of these cloud services SDK you would be able to update this file on your device. This is not the most efficient way to do business, but it is certainly an option.
The cloud SDK approach would be a better solution if for example you wanted to add levels to a game without forcing the user to upload through the marketplace. If you are worried about updating information data you may want to write some sort of script that will transfer information from an SQL database online to a SQLite database on your phone.
Both the SDK options and SQL options are for the most part compatible with all the types of devices so if you plan to make an iOS or RIM application it should be possible.
I hope this helps.

[Q] Application Development Help

Hi
I'm new to android dev and I'm trying to make an application for internal use among people in the company and partners. Its a very simple app, and I think I can cover most of the coding, but what I can't is connection to a remote mysql database. Its used to verify login credentials and edit certain columns (without it, app is useless).
From what I understand, its suppose to work like this: SQL > PHP > APP where the app pulls info from a php script located on the remote server. My issue with this is Java, which I'm very new to. I'm looking for someone to guide me through making that first bridge (I tend to make more, where I can pull sql data from app to show some stats or whatever)
Thank you

If you're into web development and performance is not an issue, then you can try the webview instead of coding natively. At that time, you'll be using more html, javascript, jquery in which you may be more familiar with.

Hi, thank for the swift reply =) I thought about it, but I'd like to make it right the first time. It would be nice to make the data available so I can do whatever with it. I did find a tutorial including examples and code on how to connect to sql and pull information, I'm just having a hard time actually implementing it into eclipse.. No idea where to type it in and stuff lol

Android App Development help please

Hello, I am looking Android App Development help please.
I would like to make an Android TV box app and was wondering if I can get some help creating one with the following requirements;
1) Looking for a Template, for starters, so I don't have to code one from scratch since I have no idea of what I'm doing
2) Configure the app to utilize a Username/Password which verifies the account on a server database that I control.
3) Hopefully it will be easy to include a link within the code that reaches out to an XML file on my server or whatever where I have a list of Video Streams/Feeds that the app reads and you can select what video you want to play.
Thank you
Hi I'm not an android coder but a c# coder in terms of a template project, something like this? https://github.com/hitherejoe/AndroidTvBoilerplate
I just searched android TV boilerplate (a boilerplate is template). Hope it helped.

How to synchronize contact list with remote server?

I have a custom CRM. I need to know client name, when he call to android devices. I find for easy way to get synchronization. I can customize server side, but cant build own android app for that. I need ready Android app. I believe that my need is widespread enough for such a program to exist. I look closely for Google Contacts Api. But this is an extreme option that is not flexible enough and involves a lot of programming work. I wanted get caller app with web-hook option, but it is unreal, becouse Internet will be unavailable during a call. It means, The desired contact must be downloaded to the phone before the call. Please, recommmend me Android app fore that. Any way for solving problem?

Newbie to development....

Hello,
I have a programming background but I'm new to android dev. so may I ask:
How difficult would be to implement an app that returns the GPS location of a specific phone and what tool would be the easiest way to make it? Will App Inventor do it? Another tool would be RFO-BASIC. Could someone be kind enough to describe the steps involved?
Reason for this kind of app is a friend of mine who has a 15yo child with health problem and needs to monitor it. I know there are apps in the market but: 1) Most are not free and 2) Does not want to (or can not) get his child's email details to use it for this purpose.... What he can do is take the phone for a while and install an app.
I suggest you check the official website of android development, where there are documents and tutorial for android app & GPS location development.
