I'm not a very saavy mobile developer and need some instructions broken down Barney-Style for me.
I'm running Acumatica 6.1 and I have installed their app from the google store. Unfortunately, the app leaves a LOT to be desired. I would like to put some new screens on our mobile app for everyone in the company. How would I go about this for all my users?
Specifically, I want an inventory screen to be added. I have an "item master" generic inquiry already built that can be used, assuming we can sort/search the inquiry results on mobile.
I tried googling this but couldn't get anywhere (the one post I saw didn't have very explicit instructions). A link to a solid guide or someone willing to post a short guide would be excellent! The xml looks doable, but I have no idea how to get this to everyone in my company all at once.
Thank you for your time!
Have you checked Acumatica Mobile Framework Guide? It should contain a lot of useful information on Acumatica's mobile app customization.

We are currently developing an app for cars with Android Automotive.
There is a desire to include a QR-code in the application, so that the user can (while the car is not moving) scan the QR-code and be directed to the website to fill in a form via their phone. The developer guidelines does not say anything about QR-codes in the application. However, the section about visual design and user interaction includes guidelines regarding images, but they are somewhat difficult to interpret. Also, it is unsure whether they apply to the use of a QR-code. The question is whether a QR-code in an android app for cars will be approved.
I tried sending the question to Google support, but their answer was "Unfortunately I'm not able to comment on your planned implementation. If you think your app is in compliance, please submit your app for another review. You may want to review the Developer Program Policies for additional policy guidance", which I found quite annoying, since we want to know whether the use of a QR-code will be approved before we spend time on the implementation.
We have documentation and guidelines, but are unable to find the answer.
Thank you in advance for help :)
Spotify and ABRP already use QR codes in AAOS
This is my first question on Stack Overflow, so sorry in advance if I asked the question in the wrong place or messed up.
I have this project where I am repurposing an old android tablet for the project. I need to make an app which will always be open on the tablet. The problem is, I am not proficient in making apps for Android. So, I thought let me run an iOS emulator (like iemu or Cider APK). Then, I realized I don't know how to put my app on the emulator.
I was thinking of ad hoc, but I am not sure if it will work. Then I though about stuff like Snapchat ++ or Instagram ++. How do they distribute it? For those who are unfamiliar with it watch this video starting at 1:55.
So in short, can I put my iOS app on the emulator or is it just better to get better at making android apps?
Thanks in advance
Based on my quick research I checked just briefly bunch of articles about Cider APK or iEMU APK and also comments and I downloaded one app but didn't run it because its basically distributed from some google drive account and looks quite dangerous to run on my phone.
But based on my understanding how this is actually doable https://appetize.io looks like only way, as this is merely some remote virtualization solution and they have business model instead of ad scam business model as those others. appetize.io runs in browser and has a free plan with limitations but usable , also they allow to upload your apk to their server to run it on their iOS devices that is basically visible in web browser, while quite slow but working and its real thing and useful.
I am guessing you would get Cider APK or iEMU APK.
I have never done it myself but I know it's doable. Read their documentation.
Install the emulator in your IDE and run by choosing the desired destination.
Hope this helps.

I need some guide and help from you guys, What i want is as follows:
Replace the device home screen with a customizable screen that limits users to selected applications only. This should allow the administrator to select the applications from available list of applications.
Specify a URL for device redirection (in case of browsing)
Create a whitelist of acceptable URLs (no other URLs will be accepted)
Enable/Disable native Samsung Android device following features.
Android Market (App Store)
Camera
WiFi
Bluetooth
Microphone
Access Point
Now can anybody guide me what to do and where to start in android?
Your help will be really appreciable.
Thanks
As mentioned by Evan, this is really the domain of Mobile Device Management (MDM) and involves a pretty heavy-handed control from the app.
There are a number of solutions already available such as Air-Watch or Good who specialize in exactly this sort of thing.
I think building your own from scratch would certainly not be trivial, though there is a lot of discussion which could help in getting you started (check here for instance).
Good luck!
To archive that, I think you must build your own Android ROM. If you only want to install your HOME app to a device, user can easily get back old home screen.
Never built an app before.
Downloaded & installed SDK & Eclipse.
For my 'learning experience' I would like to build an app for my Galaxy S II (4.0.4) that will take me to a web site and then log me in, eg: my Gmail Account or my Voip.ms Account
Can someone point me to a tutorial or suggest how I should start such an app?
Is this too complicated to begin with?
Personally, I think this is way too complicated to start as a learner. You may end up spending a lot more time in debugging some code which does not work because of some silly stuff rather than "learning" how to code Android.
I started with a simple app that has few screens, stores some info in local SQLite DB and sends some across to an remote SQL Server over internet. I managed to complete this in 2 weeks and got quite a good hold on Android basics. Now I am working on a much complex app and am not getting stuck in fundamental issues.
Developer.android.com offers some good app examples and tutorials and is the first go-to location when you want to see how to do something Android-related.
As for what you want to do, it will really depend on the website. Going to the website in question, searching for a developer section is the way to go.
There they will explain which API they offer to devs. OAuth + REST are widely adopted but there is no universal solution, it really depends on the website.
A final note : embedding a webpage in an Android app is a very bad idea from an user-experience perspective, Using an API to offer a native app will always result in a better experience.
I'm trying to solve an issue I am having with the new Droid Bionic from Motorola. I've tried to install a bunch of simple sync providers such as https://github.com/weisserd/LDAP-Sync or the Official Facebook App from the Market.
Basically, I cannot add any accounts through the "Accounts" interface unless the apps providing those accounts were bundled with the device -- trying to add an account using the official Facebook app just doesn't do anything when you click the icon. Some other friends who own the Bionic see this too.
Does anyone happen to know if the android.permission.MANAGE_ACCOUNTS functionality is basically broken under Blur unless I do something Motorola specific in my implementation? I've searched around the Motorola website, and the developer forums are basically filled with people having issues with Motorola's customized software on their devices, but nothing specific to sync providers.
I have some apps that I'd like to make work on the Bionic, but they all use the "Accounts" interface. :(.
I know it is very late to answer this question but I had the same problem and I found the solution. It is necessary to add the flag
android:exported="true"
in the AndroidManifest for the authenticator activity
