Time to consolidate projects

Posted on April 22, 2013 by Jano Cafiero

In the beginning, my intention for this site was to publish a series of books about Android. As my research and my interest in this OS grew, I felt the need to start a real project of my own. This initiative now carries the name of RC1.

Fortunately, RC1 also grew and it took most of my time in the past months. I realized I found it really hard to keep up with “Get into Android”.

This is why the day has come to make a tough decision. I decided to fold Get into Android, and merge it with RC1. Continue reading →

Cómo arreglar la falta de memoria interna en Android

Posted on February 25, 2013 by Jano Cafiero

Un error frecuente de algunos dispositivos con Android 2.3 (específicamente, el que pude presenciar es el del modelo Motorola Pro), es la falta de memoria interna para instalar aplicaciones. Este error -sin duda, un “bug” del software-, también causa que el teléfono se “cuelgue” y deje de responder.

El problema tiene dos facetas.

Por un lado, hay que revisar que la aplicación “Almacenamiento de contactos” no ocupe demasiado espacio en la memoria interna del dispositivo. Un archivo de 2,6 Mb (ver captura) es considerado normal, aunque también puede ocupar menos memoria.

Happy new year from Get into Android!

Posted on December 31, 2012 by Jano Cafiero

Well folks, it has been an amazing year for us.

2012 was the beginning of this wonderful project, and after these twelve months we find ourselves with lots of cool ideas on the move.

What I regret is not being able to rewrite “The ultimate guide to make money with Android“, but hopefully I’ll release it sometime in January.

We’re really looking forward to 2013, and from Get into Android we wish you a very happy new year.

Licenciado de la Universidad Android

Posted on December 11, 2012 by Jano Cafiero

La semana pasada obtuve el título de Licenciado en Periodismo y Comunicación Social de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata.

Fue un día muy especial, y sentí mucha satisfacción por haber conseguido -finalmente y después de tantos años-, el título.

También fue un día especial porque mi novia creó un disfraz de Android, aunque todavía no entiendo cómo se le ocurrió semejante idea…

Esas son las noticias a esta hora, todavía estoy puliendo los últimos detalles de la actualización del libro y trabajando en el proyecto del dispensador. Espero terminar todo antes de fin de año…
