Google Glass Application Development - android

I am an Android Developer.
Now, I want to develop an application for the Google Glass.
I had refer the link.
https://developers.google.com/glass/
I had go through the Static Cards and Live Cards link.
I want to make a simple notification application for the google glass.
In the application, user receives a notification after the interval of 1 minute.
But I don't understand how to start it. If there is any other tutorial links then please suggest me.
Please help.
Thanks in advance... :)

The Glass app that you're describing is probably best started by a voice command. For example, a person might say "ok glass, start a timer" to start your app.
This process is described at https://developers.google.com/glass/develop/gdk/starting-glassware

Check out this example which is XE16 friendly and shows how to do low frequency live card updates:
https://github.com/mscheel/GoogleGlass-XE16-LowFrequencyLiveCardBasketballScore
You can follow the commit history to see how I updated an XE12 project to work with XE16.
To do updates once a minute change line 27 of this file to be 60000 -
https://github.com/mscheel/GoogleGlass-XE16-LowFrequencyLiveCardBasketballScore/blob/master/src/com/digitalconstruction/LowFrequencyLiveCardBasketballScore/LiveCardService.java
You should also star this item, which notes that the relevant developer documentation is incorrect and needs to be updated since the XE16 update:
https://code.google.com/p/google-glass-api/issues/detail?id=493
That will help those that follow behind you.

In app rating-Android

Firstly, I am not a coding guy. So please explain to me like a 5 year old! :)
The problem that I am facing is that is it possible for an Android app to automatically recognize whether the user has rated that particular app on the play store or not? There are pop-ups etc which can guide the user to the play store page and rating can be done there, but does the app realize that it has been rated? If so, then is there a particular code that needs to be included wile developing the app?
Thanks
A simple 5-year-old answer: No, there is no way to do this.

How to install and launch Metaio app on Google Glass?

I used Eclipse to install Metaio SDK on google glass. In the beginning, the console area show like this
http://ppt.cc/HVfq
I think this means that I successfully complete the installation part, then I try to add voice trigger in order to let the Glass run this app. This is how it looks in my Google Glass.

But every time I tried to launch it, it had no response. I have no idea what's going on. Did I make some mistakes? Or should I upload my xml file to see if there is anything wrong?
I saw that some people had already launch their app successfully on Google Glass. I was wondering if someone can show me how to do this step by step. Because I'm new to these things. Thank you very much.
If you are new to Glass and/or Android in general, I strongly advise that you start by building and running the GDK samples that we provided:
https://developers.google.com/glass/develop/gdk/quick-start
While the quick start guide uses the API Demos sample, feel free to use a more real-life example such as the Compass, Stopwatch or Timer samples that are available on our GitHub repository:

How can I get Android installed time for Google Play?

I'm looking for a way to make a trial version of my app.
I found this post that describes tree ways of doing it.
I thought about another way, if I could get the time the application was installed (from Google Play) I could make a period of time starting form this date and it won't matter if the user change the device or clear the data or do anything else.
Is it possible to do this... How can I do this?
You can't get such time from Google Play.

Android app does not show up in App store > 24 hours

I released my first android app yesterday, and got the direct link to the app working after 6 hours. But Its been > 24 hours now, and it still doesnt show up in the search on playstore.
I have been searching in the playstore both from my android device, as well as from desktop browser. The app simply isnt there.
Is this common? Is there something I can do to check the status/find out whats happening?
Thanks a lot
EDIT: the direct link is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droidinput
EDIT: The issue was indeed that the name "Droid Input" was too general. Changed it to Moused . Hopefully it makes it a tad better once the update is pushed to prod. Thanks for all your help!
Sometimes newly published apps take time until they appear in search results. The app needs to be indexed in the Play Store before it starts appearing in search results. Also, make sure the app name has enough unique keywords so that it's easier to spot while searching.
All my apps were searchable minutes after the direct link started working. Can you post the name of your app.
Check those in Developer console
published area
minimal Android os
make sure it's published in developer console
If it's all right, don't worry, just wait to published
If your app have any problem google will send email to you
First of all,
you must check if you have no other updates,
second check if the website is not under going several changes if so than you might have to wait a couple of days
check your device for any out of the normal activity
if this is not resolved make sure to contact the company and explain them your issue,
regularly it shouldn't be happening to only you so there might be others with the same issue as you, it is unlikely that it could be your device but there is always that possibility that it might.

How to get notification in your android app, if update available in android app store?

I developed an android application and I have put it in android app store by paying 25 bucks. However some people are using my application in their device. I wanna know, if I upload the updated version of my app in app store then how user finds that out?
I found out some links on the same context in android developer site and all but didn't technically clear out my understanding. Basically I want to know,
how android app update mechanism works?
How device gets notification of available updates?
Please provide some clarity as a developer point of view/ code level.
Reffered links:
