I've an Android application with Google login, to test this application and do login, in a Virtual Device Emulator, i've added a personal account in that Emulator.
Question is: Can i add a test account instead of my personal? (but i have to create that, and in creation process Google ask me my personal phone number...)
Do you usually create another account or you use your personal?
You can use your personal account, thats ok, all the developers i know and me always use this way.
Or do you have some problem with this?

Under 'App review' there's an option to make your app public. Right now it says 'No' and 'Your app is in development and unavailable to the public'. What happens if I switch it to yes though. Will my friends be able to see the app i'm working on (I don't want that). So how do I keep my app development private, but at the same time be able to use it's features. Because as I'm aware, I have to turn 'Make app public' to 'on' in order to utilize Facebook login for my app.
No your friends wont be able to see the app you are working on. Making your APP public is for your clients to use it's features and not just the developer.
It means you are in development mode now. If you make it public, then only you can access your login from other devices. And this does not say to post your wall or mention your friends.
while an app is in sandbox mode/development mode, so “not live”, only
the users added as admins, developers, testers to the app can use it
and see content that was created through it. Only when you put it in
live mode, every user will be able to use it and see content made via
it.
I will publish paid app for android and ios. I want that one account can only install and run on one device. Otherwise I want to block the app on first device. Is there any way to do this?
Note: I know there is a lvl for Google Play. But I am not sure, it does this exactly. Sorry for my english.
What you seem to need to do, is to get the device_ID and pair it with the account.That shouldn't be hard.
You get the device ID when your customer registers ,than at login you check the login credentials AND the device ID...
Here's pretty much all you need regarding the device ID (not the login,I trust you can handle it yourself)
How to get unique device hardware id in Android?
Please help. I absolutely need to be able to test the Calendar.contract provider in my app using the SDK emulator. Purchasing a $400 hardware device just to test is not a real option.
I have seen the posts that remind us that we need to target the Google API platform, which we have done. Next, I have seen a work around where it is suggested that we create a google account as an exchange account by specifying the m.google.com server and clicking "Accept all SSL". Unfortunately, that generates the error that:
You have typed an incorrect server address or the server requires a protocol version that Email doesn't support.
We created a basic Google account. However, the emulator still says we must create at least one calendar account and forces us into creating the Echange Account. According to the emulator, the account we did create as a Google account has no calendars associated with it, even though I can go to Google Calendar, access that account, and add items to a calendar.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks,
I have an app that I'm developing that uses AccountManager to get credentials for a Google account that is subsequently used for getting a cookie from AppEngine. I've noticed that I find bugs when I send the app to testers because they get prompted to authorize the account. I need to do a bunch of testing and am looking for a way to "unauthorize" an app from a particular credential so I can do my testing on the next install. I can't find anything in settings where I can remove the authorization to an account from an app. Do you know of a way to do this?
Thank you,

It is true that uninstalling is most of the time not enough. You need to uninstall and restart the phone right afterwards. At least this works for me
At least as of 2.3, there is no API for this. IIRC, if you install the application, the authorization entry will be removed from the database, so a re-install should work.
You can try to remove from this page:

I would like to have a fake android account I can use for testing adding/deleting/merging/referencing contacts. In my searches, I'm a little surprised something hasn't turned up. I am new to the android scene. How do people normally go about this?
Thank you.
You can use the android emulator that comes with the SDK, that is about it unless you are willing to use your own device.
I'm not sure if the android emulator allows access to contacts though.
For testing, you can just create another gmail.com account (e.g., mytestaccount#gmail.com) and use that to sign in on the emulator (or test device, if you have one). Remember to sign out of your current Google/gmail.com account so you get the "Sign up" option on the Gmail page.
