My app is functionally complete.  I need to do more testing and I have a bug related to importing a photo taking by the device’s camera that I can’t reproduce but the graphic designer reproduces on his HTC Evo.  I need to get a logcat from him to try and troubleshoot where the problem might be.  I’ve sent out feelers to some of my other contacts on Android to see if they can reproduce the problem.

I need to get the final artwork from the designer as well as design an about screen as well.  There are a number of ideas I have related to improving the app but I want to see how it does on the market before adding many more features.  Probably one of the nice things about releasing a free app, if no one uses it I feel less compelled to update and improve it.

I like what it does though and I can see myself using it regularly so at any rate it does what I set out to have it do.

I spent some time looking at GreenDroid . I like the idea of a unified library to help aid in developing apps but I couldn’t get it to work very well, not in IntelliJ and not outside of his sample application.  Either way there wasn’t going to be easy way to integrate it into all the work I had done already.  I really liked his QuickActions work which is what lead me to GreenDroid but in the end I had to abandon using it.

I stumbled on some work that Lorenz did around QuickActions and the code was free to use, easy to understand and easy to modify which was pretty exciting.  He had a bunch of samples that were easy to build and play with which was always nice.

I started looking into new projects but find myself intimidated by all the dp dpi px and other screen resolution type issues that people regularly complain about.  It’s probably just a matter of doing some reading and experimenting.
