Android 6.0 on HTC ONE M7

The Internet offers quite a lot of step by step instructions on how to flash an Android device with a different ROM (Firmware). The most of them tell you how to do it and are really well for a defined device and a defined software. I'm a developer and I like to have some more options. I don't want to write a general flashing manual. The aim is to share some useful information about flashing.

Developing with the Android Emulator: the Beginning

The documentation on Android Developers is very well done, but there is a lot of informations. Often the informations I need are spread over many different pages.

A quick setup for the development environment is easy to find. There is a lot of good sources about how to setup the virtual device, how to create a new project using the IDE and so on. What I missed is a collection of practical advices.

Blogging with Android: Blogaway, Wordpress


Last month I decided to buy a smartphone. I'm a UNIX developer since long time: my choice the HTC Desire.

Display

The display of the smartphone is limited in space. The layout of my blog on Blogger may be squeezed and is readable even with the zoom function.

The layout I use on Wordpress isn't readable on the smartphone, but the mobile site of Wordpress is really good.

Blogging

At the beginning everything seemed unconfortable, but once I did understand how to work, what to select and in which sequence bloggging was easy.

Blog-Away

Blogaway is a Blogspot client for Android. It's everything I need to write down my ideas.

This article was written using the smartphone and Blogaway travelling by train.

Each article may be published as draft and improved later on the PC. The text may be formatted using bold, italic or a color. It is possible to add links, pictures and videos. You may scroll the text very quickly. I like this application because it is simple and efficient.

You may find more informations about Blogaway on blogspot.com or on  Twitter.

WordPress

Read my article on Wordpress

Conclusion

Bogging with the smart-phone is possible as additional way to add articles. It is suitable for short and simple text.

If a blog is readable or not depends on the theme.
