I search for days now, and only specific answer i got in one thread is that its not possible (here).
But, I found some apps that can do it so i guess it is possible, probebly with some kind of a workaround.
The problem is that i'm in the dark, i dont have any idea where to start from. I'll be happy for any points, leads, anything to get me started...
Thanks,
Eitan.

I want to create an app can help me control my Facebook addiction and waste time on my phone. So I want to create an android application start when I open an app like Facebook or Twitter , when I open Facebook, my app will start timing and tell me after a time that I setting in it. Can I do that, or should I run my app on the background. I'm new to android so I don't know where to find information or keyword to research.
Sorry for my bad English.
Hey there is no direct way of doing it, but you have to figure out the solution for that by running a service and accessing stats
refer this thread for detail
this thread
this particular latest answer on that

you may have to figure out a solution for that and its possible, many apps are doing it.
upvoted your question, because i liked the question and idea. Please post back the best solution you implement, so that someone in the future might benefit of it and the i guess few of the solutions given are already outdated now.
I know this has been asked before (did not find a straight forward answer) but can I (Or how can I) create and Android App using CSS/HTML/Jquery ?
I will not need to hook into native functions, such as the accelerometer, camera, or even the Toast Messages...I only need to create an app to show a list of names and some details when name is selected, therefore I don't know if it's worth learning to make my life more complicated for something like this.
PS: I need the app to work offline, otherwise I would have just made it with jQuery Mobile and uploaded it on a server.
UPDATE AFTER GETTING DOWNVOTED
Ok, so I get downvotes for this question, probably because it's been asked before, or maybe not, since he/she didn't take the time to write a reason...
Anyway, my point is: I did googled it and searched, but at this moment there are a lot of ads of websites and web apps that will help you do this BUT are they reliable, safe..do they really do the trick or it comes with bugs? That is why I asked the question, to see who used what and what was their experience with it. So yeah, you can downvote me for not trusting every ad and not taking the time to try out everything out there!
Well you can use https://software.intel.com/en-us/html5/tools to develop cross-platform apps. I used it to develop too. It is quite good but it only has one major issue: you can't use php. It also enables you to do on-device testing.
Ok, here we go, I have to develop an application, which has to allow electricty and water bill payment, and naturally it's supposed to generate at the end of the transaction a receipt, I particullary need to know how to transfer data and determine what would be displayed on the reciept.
I'v gone through this forum and i've found out some StarIO android sdk, knowing that I have a weak english, and it's a bit hard for me to figure out what's going on in the starIO's documentation, i would like to know if StarIO's packages' are what I need for this application or I just misunderstood the objective behind it.
Thanks in advance.
Well, if you have to work with a Star printer, then yes, their SDK is the way to go. If not, though, we'd need a lot more details to answer your question fully.
Phone numbers can be expressed lots of different ways:
555-555-5555
1-555-555-5555
+1-555-555-5555
Are all the same number, just expressed differently. Android's ContactsContract.PhoneLookup class Is designed to solve this problem. I'm about to run this through some tests and post the results, but I figured it would be worth making a question to see if anyone else had some experience with this and knows the answer. I could save a ton of headaches by not needing to filter out the +1 and other extraneous symbols before the number if I can count on this PhoneLookup class to do its job for the users. Can anyone testify in support of it?
Thanks. If I don't hear back from anyone I will run some tests and let you know how it goes.
Wrote a quick application to test this, found that the class can account for every variation of a phone number:
+15555555
15555555
5555555
Including hyphens (-) as well. Hope this save someone time in the future.
