I want to write a small GPS application on my Nokia N900, but I can't install liblocation-dev, because I need a token from the SDK EULA. Can't access this EULA's website (http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/eula/index.php). What should I do now? Thanks.

For devleopment I have to do this:
If not installed yet, you have to install the following packages :
Extras / Google Play services
Extras / Google Repository
Android 6.0 (API 23) / Google APIs Intel x86 Atom System Image Rev. 19
Android SDK Build-tools 23.0.3
Is this for development only? Or do all my users of the app have to also download Google Play Services etc?
Yes I know this isn't really a question for stackoverflow, but where else can I ask this question? They are not letting me ask this in the github issues either.
I also can't test this, because react-native-maps isn't working for me, it keeps crashing. I wash hoping to learn if its worth the effort to fix the crash. If users have to install a bunch of stuff to use this, then its not worth.
If you are using services provided by Google Play Services like Maps, or push messages, location services or in-app payments then yes, your users must have it installed too. If you are not using Google Play Services, then it's not required.
But if required, they have to install Google Play Services app from Play Store, not development stuff like you listed:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms&hl=en
EDIT
How come Google doesnt defalt install this?
Google Play Services or apps like Calendar, GMail etc are NOT part of Android. These are Google applications and may or may not come preinstalled, depending on licenses phone/tablet manufacturer purchased from Google. As Android can perfectly live w/o these apps, some devices does not include it or come with alternatives (i.e. using other providers than Google).
I don't know even know where the proper place to tell them would be
Your app should check if Google Play Services exists usually on start before it start using it. See this documentation which discuss this.
Weird, I just clicked on "Google Maps" on my Android Simulator and it made my react-native-maps start working.
There was a licence agreement when I clicked Google Maps on the phone, so as soon as I accepted it, react-native-maps started working.
I'm developing a windows phone application. I have a version of my app in windows store. I know how to find the version of package I'm developing, but i want to find programmatically the version of my app in windows store,so i can compare and if the version store is bigger than the version of app user has, i want to make a notification and tell him that a newer version is available.
Thanks in advance!
Beginning with WP8 you can query the Store using windows.applicationmodel.store.listinginformation but sadly this does not include the version.
There is no public Windows Store API that provides this info. So you'd have to either scrape the info yourself or connect to a 3rd party API that provides alreasy scraped data. Solutions outlined here: windows store api to access metro and phone apps information
Wait but why?
If you only need to provide your app the latest version code, just store it in a JSON file hosted on your backend, or alternatively, if you're feeling fancy, create a dedicated webapp that checks for updates.
I am testing WSO2-Emm system for managing our android mobile app. We have an app for taxi drivers. We deploy it using our tablets and a single gmail account. Our problem is that google allows up to 10 signed in devices for a single google account.
I have tried to load the apk to the WSO2 store. The problem is that when I want to upload a new version of the same app I get a warning message saying that this APK already exists in the store. When I try to rename it and add it as a new apk it works. The problem is that when I go to App-Management, the application appears under 'installed'. The Emm system doesn't detect there is a new version.
To be more specific, my question is is there a way to manage mobile application versions using the WSO2 store and not the google play store.
If there is a way we can go on with this system. If not, we will stop testing it.
The only way I've figured out how update an already installed app is by going to the App Management tab, selecting your latest version of the app in question, and hitting the install button under the Roles tab (NOT the Users tab). It will send the install command to any devices listed under roles you have checked, even if they already have the app installed. Keep in mind this will install the app on all the devices, even devices that already have the version you're trying to put out.
It looks like you already know about the patch on EMM-686 that must be implemented in order to upload multiple versions of the same app to the Publisher. Just in case you want to confirm it's implemented correctly, see my answer here for instructions on how to implement it.
I have VS2012 windows phone emulator that works just fine. I can develop and debug.
The question is how to upload test content to the emulator? I need a few songs in the emulator media library to debug my application.
You can upload files to your emulator with windows phone power tools.Connect emulator and put file where you want.
Check this link:
Wp Power Tools
unfortunately you cannot do that in the emulator... you need an actual phone...
Can't you just sign into SkyDrive and grab from there?
Also this 7.0 approach to deploying files to the emulator might still work: http://justinangel.net/WindowsPhone7EmulatorAutomation
You may be able to get with your local developer evangelist to get a test device. You can use this app to find out who that is - http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=30db0bac-e968-4e50-8205-30adf19fb5b9.
I have basically finished developing my App and I wanted to test it on the iPhone, however I wanted to know if this was possible without paying the 99€ fee. I dont plan to release it on the App store in the end...
Thanks,
Anthony
It's not possible unless you jailbreak your device.
You could have another developer who has registered, build your app, and then send you a signed developer copy to add to your phone. You would have to share the code with this developer though. If it is a one time deal, you can send to me, and I can build it.
Otherwise, Ole is correct, it is not possible.
