Hello i have a problem.
We had published our app two days ago to your app gallery.
i can't see my app on huawei app gallery via my phone but i can see the app when i get in the web site of huawei app gallery.
also some phones which containts google play and huawei app gallery can show the app on huawei app gallery ( generally old phones )
My phone is huawei-y6p
My app gallery version is 11.1.1.304
My Region is Turkey ( our app support turkey, i checked from developer
console )
My phone model is MED-LX9N
EMUI Version is 10.1.0
Android version 10
so what is the problem why can't i show my app on huawei app gallery via my phone ?
also if i click the market url of my app via my phone it opens my app on app gallery but the install button is disabled.
Can you help me about this issue, thank you very much.
Seems to be you can install app on devices with GMS. So it looks like that you app has google libs and doesn't have Huawei libs and it's published in AppGallery in state, that allows to install app only for users with google services.
So you must upload version with Huawei services integrated as without them app can't work on devices without google services.
Your Huawei Y6P (MED-LX9N) phone do not have Google Mobile Services/GMS (aka Google Play Services) but Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) only . Huawei phones released after May 2019 do not have GMS installed. The legacy Huawei phones have both GMS & HMS.
Most likely your app has strong dependency on GMS SDK and services and may negatively affect user experience so it was hidden from newer phones with HMS-only. It is available on legacy phones because those phones have GMS.
To make it available on HMS-only phone AppGallery, you need to integrate HMS Core and replace the GMS dependency. You can use HMS Toolkit to scan your project and convert it into HMS app, or a G+H app (GMS+HMS).
There are also several app release strategies, you can take a look:
Multi-APK Version Release

I want to publish android wear2.0(standalone) apk to the playstore.My phone app is already published on the playstore with wear1.0.4 embedded apk.
Right now I am running wear2.0 apk on emulator for testing.
But I have no clue how to sync it with my android phone(without using bluetooth) or an iphone.
Please guide me.
The same way as Wear 1.0. The way I've been publishing the phone app and the wear app is that my wear app's version code is one higher than the phone app but since it differentiates by feature (watch), both are on the Play store simultaneously. The embedded apk for wear 1.0 goes to the watch with the phone app but wear 2.0 watches show a notification for the user to download your (wear 2.0) app from the watch play store.
As long as the package names are the same, you can sync data using the Data APIs. Less recommended but since the watch has Internet now, you can even sync in other ways.
I have an android app with Google-analytics integrated. Recently, i ported it for Blackberry10 devices and is currently there on both Playstore and Blackberry world. Now, how do i know from the analytics reports about the blackberry devices running my app. In the analytics report,for devices it shows a row in devices an "Not Set". I did not make any changes for porting my app to blackberry except the mandatory changes in the manifest.
Can anyone please give some suggestions.
The following would allow you to verify inside your app to see whether it's a BlackBerry or another Android device running your app (taken from BB Developer site):
java.lang.System.getProperty("os.name").equals("qnx")
Unfortunately I am not sure what properties Google Analytics uses for its device information.
I just realized a number of my apps do not show up on Google Play store on OS 2.3.6. I have this Samsung Galaxy Y with 2.3.6.
For example this Speedometer app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.valueapps.utilities.speedometer
When accessed on the above mentioned device, Play store says the device isn't compatible.
What factors make your app disappear from a particular phone's Play store?
I've installed the app directly on this phone using USB cable+eclipse ( dev environment) and it works just fine. It's not compatibility issue for sure.
If your phone will not let you download apps on google play then download an online apk of an older version of the app.
I googled around and tried to find out something about the new Samsung App Store. I built an App for Google Play and I wonder if I can deploy it to the Samsung App Store.
The Android SDK isn't specially built for Google Play I guess. But looking at the Samsung SDK docs it seems quite different from the standard SDK.
Does anybody has any experience with Samsung or knows a link where I can find more info?
Thanks!
Google Play is a non exclusive app store. You are free to distribute your app via other channels, such as Amazon App Store, Samsung App Store, emailing apks and even direct downloads from your own site.
Any app that has been written with the Android SDK should work on any device running the supported versions Android (assuming the OEM has a bug free and AOSP based ROM).
Keep in mind though that some devices that have the Samsung App Store may not have Google Play and may not be able to use Google Services like In App billing and licensing.
Be warned with Samsung Apps, they take huge fees, there are many intermediaries (agents, commissionaires). While in Google Play you get 70% of the sales, in Samsung Apps you barely get 30-35%... And you are paid 6 months later.
I have developed and published an Android application on the Android market. The phone I used for developing this is a Samsung Galaxy running Android 2.3.
On Google Play, it does not allow me to download the app to the above phone, saying that the phone is not eligible.
What could be the cause of this ? It gets downloaded to other devices, that even run Android 2.2 so it can't be an issue with the Manifest.
The manifest can define other limitations (other than min version). For example screen size, density, required hardware and more.
The developer can also define some filters in the developer console.
So probably one of those options are filtering out your device.
