You mean you want to create a wrapper app so that it appears in the launcher? Have a look at this article by Motorola http://community.developer.motorola.com/t5/MOTODEV-For-Enterprise/Hybrid-Web-Android-Apps-Applying-an-Android-Wrapper-to-an/ba-p/21370. You'll also need a Google Play account to submit the app through and Eclipse to build the app in AND you'll need to remember the to set the android.hardware.touchscreen feature requirement false in the Manifest. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html
I suggest you pay someone to do it for you.

Adding starting splashing Animation to Google workspace Add -on

I'm creating a google workspace add-on to a organization.For styling purpose I want to add starting splash animation very similler to the Google map, keep and contact Add-on have.Can I get an idea about, that can be done to the third party add-on , that we are creating ?
Google Workspace add-on are pretty limited in terms of design you can do. And you won't be able - as of writing - to create a splash screen that disappear without user's interaction.
You can ask for such feature using Google's feedback form.

Facebook Instant "PLAY" button not present

My Facebook Instant app does not have a play button, so it's not possible to launch the app via sharing.
Could someone outline what I need to do to get this button to appear please?
I've set up everything (including an app page) in the dashboard. I'm assuming it has something to do with the "fbapp-config.json" file, but sample app doesn't seem to have the most common use case.
I assume don't need a self-hosted bot just to launch my app?
As discussed elsewhere (as I am unable to comment on Stack Overflow) I clarified that this is the Messenger share from the app details page. This looks like a bug on the Facebook side, as this reproduces for me.
For context, I am an engineer working on the Facebook Instant Games team. We will look into fixing this and update here when it is fixed.

How to create a "Photo Gallery" in windows phone 8.1

I'm building one app and I want to make a gallery in my app.
What I did was create a GridView binding all my photos.
But what I really want to do is, create a gallery the same way of Windows Phone.
Well Microsoft did create a control for this! It's called the MediaViewer Class, but it's a difficult one to use. It's however the closest representation of the actual control used in the WP camera app! It was first featured in the Basic Lens app sample and provided as a nuget package PhoneMediaViewer
Hope these code examples help

Allow my app to be opened with camera button

I'm working on a WP8 app that will utilize the camera for a feature. I've read that, as of GDR2, you can now change which app opens with the camera button, but:
it appears that an app needs to be specially written to be used like
this; not every photo or camera app can be configured to launch when
you press the Camera button.
Question: What do I need to do in my app for it to become an available option in the "Pressing the camera button opens: " drop down when navigating to Settings -> Applications -> photos + camera?
Additionally, part 2 of this question would be (if part 1 is possible), when the application is launching, can I determine if the user opened it via the camera button (so that I could go straight to my camera feature)?
I've seen this article but it only describes how to use and handle the shutter button, it doesn't mention how to allow this button to open the app.
Has anyone been able to accomplish this?
This thread (http://forums.wpcentral.com/windows-phone-8/234751-changing-default-camera-app.html) seems to suggest that only manufacturers can create apps that can do this. Not sure if it's definite, but I've never heard of a 3rd party camera app that can do more than register as a lens.

Add an event to Outlook/iCal/Google Calendar in AS3

Is it possible to add an event directly to a user's calendar (be it google, iCal, Outlook) with AS3? I work at a major network and my boss wants to add this functionality to our Flash banners to help promote our TV shows. The best I can think of is having a button that links out to a .ics file the the user downloads and adds manually, but I'd like to avoid having the user do anything other than click on a button.
Any advice/direction is much appreciated. Thanks!
You would need to develop some kind of mediator that takes your request and then translates it into platform specific API calls (if any exist). For example, you would need to use the Google Calendar API to add events directly into a Google Calendar.
