Multiplatform Development Tools for Mobile Apps

We’re tired of developing only for Android – now we are venturing into multi-platform development tool. Why? Once we release an Android app, immediately there’s this question; When would you release the iPhone version? This somehow or rather makes us a bit guilty. So we decided to go multiplatform from the first now on.

Currently we’re involved in apps development using Adobe Flash, the reason is because we have lots of resources (expert) on this tool.  There’re a lot more familiar names for multi-platform development out there; Xamarin, Phonegap, Titanium to name a few. Since most of our apps are multimedia heavy, so by right Flash could be suitable.

Adobe Flash has the capability to port Flash application into APK file, that can run on Android platform. Provided your Android device has Adobe Air installed (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.air). This Adobe Air is the ‘interpreter’ of the APK file created by the Adobe Flash tools. AIR is the short form of . Frankly, we have this scepticism about Adobe Air technology. Why are there not many apps in Google Play developed with Adobe Air? This is may be a good question that can only be found out when we have tried releasing an app. Wait and see…

SO!, these are two of our new apps in beta (sadly still only for Android – we’ll release the iPhone version once we have our new App Store account, subject to approval).

ViewFlipper Example–a simple FlashCard

UPDATE: Improved with Fling gesture (Sept 2012) UPDATE: ViewFlipper with Flip-In and Flip-Out Animation (August 2012) This tutorial is to demonstrate the ViewFlipper layout that is almost similar to CardLayout (in Java). The app will produce a simple Flash card that provide several screens with different picture for each card. Flip-in and Flip-out animation provided. Added in Sept 2012 – an improvement to support Fling gesture – enjoy… The amendment is only on the coding part. Some how the layout design (main.xml) is quite long. Later I’ll produce separated screen by including several XML layout from outside files. Screenshots;

Turn laptop into Wifi hotspot

This article is given such a title so that it could fight for the keyword “Turn laptop into Wifi hotspot”. There are two experiment for this post; I’m trying to use Google AdWords External Tool to look for the right keyword for this article. (This is kind of SEO practice) I’d like to turn my laptop (a DELL Studio 14, Windows 7 Premium, Intel i5 64bit) into a wireless (wifi) hotspot. I’m currently using Maxis Broadband and my wireless router is broken. To buy a new wireless router will cause a such big hole in my wallet. Why don’t I use my laptop to be a wifi router? Theoretically, it’s possible. I searched and found this free software called Virtual Router (it is a additional software to turn your Windows 7/ 2008 into a wireless router). Virtual Router -  is a free, open source software based router for PCs running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2. Using Virtual Router, users can wirelessly share any internet connection (Wifi, LAN, Cable Modem, Dial-up, Cellular, etc.) with ...
