I have published several Android applications for the Google Play Store through my Google account, but all under my company's developer name.
Now I want to publish an App under my name with the same user account, but this does not seem to be possible without changing the developer name for all previously published apps? Is it possible to publish Apps under more than one developer name with the same Google account?
The only solution I am seeing at the moment is generating another Google Account to use for my personal Apps, which seems quite silly, and I am hoping there is a better way.
If someone else is wondering I can indeed confirm that this does not seem possible (to have more than one developer name with the same account). If you are in my position you have two possibilities:
Make a new Google account and register as an Android developer then use that account for your new Apps.
Make a new Google account and transfer existing Apps to it via this link.

I need to make around 1000 android apps with same code base but different names, logos, splash screens,images . using android library will solve the issue? One google developer account is sufficient?
Google has recently cracked down on template apps, and you will likely have apps rejected and get your account banned if you attempt this under a single account:
Apps that are created by an automated tool, wizard service, or based on templates and submitted to Google Play by the operator of that service on behalf of other persons are not allowed. Such apps are only permissible if they are published by an individually registered developer account belonging to the user of the automated tool, not the operator of the service.
You may be able to make this work for now if you create a new account for each app that you publish; however, there is no guarantee that Google won't change the Play Store terms of service to prohibit this as well.
It is not a good practice to do so.
If each app uses the same source code but different ressources, you should offer customization options within the main app.
You won't have good dev feedbacks by polluting the market this way.
With customizations, you can reach as much users as you would with a 1000 apps, because you could meet their needs properly.
Take a look at Inn-Apps billing in the official Android developer documentation...

I am unable to access my Google Play Developer account since this morning. I had three apps which were running smoothly until today. But now, none of them are in Google Play listing. Can someone help me out on how to resolve this issue?
I tried contact Google but got no response. I also tried to submit an appeal but no response again. I would be very grateful to someone who's got an answer for my query. This is what my error message says
Google Developer accounts can only be reinstated if they were disabled by mistake. If your account was disabled due to a violation of Google's Terms of Service, it's no longer eligible to be reinstated by Google's support team.
When your developer account is terminated, you'll no longer be able to publish new applications. You shouldn't attempt to register for a new Google Play Developer Console account since Google can no longer accept applications from you. This means that any related accounts are also permanently suspended, and any new accounts that you try to open will be terminated without a refund of the developer registration fee.

I am recently checking some Website that create app online. And there is lots of option..

As i understand this all site use HTML5 to create app.
But my question is that how do they sign app for distributing app on relevant app store.
Any pointer or discussion or Tutorial will be helpful.
First of all let me explain the concept of digital signature on app.
Each and every legal app (non - cracked) app have a digital signature attached to it which is assigned by the store itself.
The Digital signature is basically an encrypted data/information of the publisher (id , name credit card no. etc) as well as some credentials entered by store itself.
As You might have read in these sites you mentioned you do have to pay the developer's account fees ($99 for iOS and $25 for android).
http://www.theappbuilder.com/pricing/
So when you create app on any of these sites they need to link your developer's account as well and publish app through the respective store.
And this is how they sign and recognise app for respective store.
Hope it helped.
My first time answering a question so excuse for any mistake.

My company want to buy an App from a developer(, say John), which is already on the Google Play.
John would like to sell the App to us, but he refuse to hand in the keystore(which is used to sign the App). The reason is that John signs other Apps with the same keystore.
According to my survey, an App CAN be transfered from one Google Play developer account to another, but due to different sign(by different keystore), the original users which already have downloaded the App will NO LONGER receive the update.
John will cooperate except handing in the keystore.
Is it possible that we can buy the App without getting the keystore, and the original user can continually receive the update?

This shows why each app should be signed with dedicated key

No, it is not possible. You will not be able to release any update to existing app if it is signed with different key.

2. Can I first upload the app as free app and then turn this app as paid app ?
1.WHEN people buy the app from google play store how will I get paid for the app
Ans you have to link your merchant account with your developer console you can do this by
1) First, log into your Google Play Developer Console.
2) Click on the Financial reports tab in the left navigation bar.
3) From there, select Set up a merchant account now.
4) then follow the steps and then go to Account and click on add account then fill out the form and then follow what they say.
2.Can I first upload the app as free app and then turn this app as paid app
Ans No You can't it is asked before hands that your app is paid or free.
You will get paid via your bank account. You need to register a bank account with Google Play Mechanism. After that, you will receive a confirmation amount via email. Enter this amount to verify your Google account, then you can receive money via this bank account. You will receive it once a month. Also, you can check the payment history as well.
You can't. You need to identify it clearly before uploading it as you can't change in the future.
