Apologies, this page is kind of old. I am currently not looking for any work, I have far more clients than I can fit in and I have had to stop working for most of them. I now work almost full time for a start-up in London, and the rest of my time is spent working on my music app Mov Synth.

Thanks.
I am now working full time as an Android freelancer for a start-up, too busy to update this blog post at the moment…

As for my own apps, I have reduced the number of them I maintain. I mostly focus on my music app Mov Synth right now.

You need to stop the sound playing in onPause() of your Activity where the SurfaceView is (and you can start playing it again in onResume()).

mp.setLooping(true);
mp.start();

Comment on Linkify your Android TextView by Anil

Thanks a lot for this great tutorial. This was a big help. Have one question though, is it possible to make a hyperlink to not do anything at all, when clicked. When the hyperlink is clicked it should just stay at the same activity, with the clicked text being highlighted. Please email answer to my email address.

Thanks

Comment on onClick tip for Android views by Nat

@Lenn: Actually, you are wrong. You should do android:onClick=”quitgame” and not android:onClick=”quitgame()” to call the quitgame() method in your code (see http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/ui-1.6.html )

Comment on When are Google Android developer console stats updated? by Nat

@XdebugX: You don’t need to update or unpublish an app to change the description: just click on it in your dev console, change the description and then click “save”. Changes are shown within minutes on the market, though sometimes they take up a little longer (no more than a few hours) to be shown on the web market (I guess the web market might use more caching, or perhaps it was my own browser’s caching at play).
