How to change the lockscreen text ?
Please help me
This is done by the developer of the custom rom that you are using. There isn't an easy way unless you want to change the rom itself.
Another option is to use a third party lockscreen, that you can download from Android Market, but that would change the entire lockscreen not just the text.
This is one of the most popular lockscreen apps.
You can't edit System Apps.
I would suggest you to go for Lock Applications in Android Market. They can't remove the system App. But it will replace the System App as default App.

Currently, I got stuck in a scenario in which I create a demo which is single kiosk app. I want to create an app which allows selected apps to show in the list/grid which are accessible from the app only, other then that are not. The kiosk app stays as a home default. I have checked for different paid platforms but is it possible to create or work with it manually.
Any help will be appreciable.
I want to develop a custom keyboard for android (that can be set on Settings > language and input).
I want the keyboard app to run several services that will be active all the time.
Is it possible? Can a keyboard app run services like any other app?
So, The answer is yes. From what I have seen, a custom keyboard app can run multiple services and broadcast receivers.
I hope my question\answer will help somebody in the future.
I would like to add lockscreen controls for my app similar to what netflix or youtube does when casting to a chromecast device.
Do I do this with a lockscreen widget that I add and remove on demand or is there a different method?
Thank you.
The proper way to add a lock screen controller is to use the RemoteControlClient. There are limitations to what you can do there, both in terms of the functionality and availability based on the Android version. If you are running Android version 4.1+, then the required functionality is there (check out the Google Play Music to see how it can look like). Give that a try and if run into issues, come back here and post your issue(s).
I want an an android app to respond to a particular link that is clicked from any other android app.
The problem is that i can't customize the app from which the linked is clicked.Is there any way to do it ?
No. You cannot change the behaviour of clicking the link without the source for the other app. It would be very insecure if you could!
Imagine being able to alter the behaviour of a link click in an app which is not yours. I wouldn't be running Android if it allowed apps to do this!
Hello and thanks in advance for the help
I have a series of Android apps that I am using. Whenever I recommend these apps to someone, I have to go over each one individually.
I wanted to know if it was possible to create a single application that will:
Download all of the individual apps all at once and install them
Create an app icon that when launched creates a submenu with all of the related apps and a help file to walk the user through each one.
Is this possible? If so, how difficult is it to do?
Thanks again for your help

For the download and installation, it's not difficult. You'll just have to get the market URL of all the apps you want to include, and then use a custom Intent to download and install them (something using ACTION_VIEW should do the trick
For the second part, you could create your launcher, and then have a screen with some buttons and an help screen. It shouldn't be too hard to do.
"background batch app install" is not possible on a basic (not rooted) device.
But you can easily create a "launcher app" listing all the app you want to share and, using "Intents" and "PackageManager", letting the user open it if it's already installed of downloaded the app if it's not.
