I hate bad written Android applications!

A lot of Android Market apps are buggy cause of developers, that don't take heavy testing seriously, they're just publishing it to make me angry :-) There are ways to test it during development, using f.ex. JUnit. I will cover those aspects soon.

I've decided to refresh my blog a little bit, starting to write some things about stuff I'm working on. I will also share some of my Android development progress over SDM Project, that I'm lately working on. I can not tell you the business logic and background of SDM, since it hasn't been released yet. Well, I can only tell that it is not related with security :-) I hope for you to come along and consult some of the technical issues and troubles I'm facing sometimes. I also do realize that my English isn't fluent, so please forgive me for any language mistakes I might make. You should focus on a technical background anyways ;-) I've moved to English based blog cause lots of people I'm co-operating with don't understand Polish.

Not sure if all knows but Android 3.1 platform has been released some time ago and it's downloadable component for the Android SDK. Google made an excellent job and implemented a lot of useful functionalities, fixed some old issues, etc. 3.1 has a new APIs for integrating connected peripherals with the applications on the platform using USB, among with others like MTP/PTP, RTP and much more.

Oh well, just noticed :-) I came out with the idea of developing SDM using Android 2.1-update on 5th October 2010, when I first installed Android SDK. Anyways, it took me few months to catch some free time and make an development kick-off.
