Hi guys, apologies for the vagueness. We wrote apps using API 4 to run on HTC G1 development phones that can run at the max Android 1.6. We wanted to port a number of them to Android 2.2+ without (which was the first mistake) testing them on actual hardware that does run that OS. Would such phones run apps written with API 4 without major overhaul?
@ Diane - The diffs are primarily incremental right? Each new API compared to the one before it? Still this helps! @ Mark - is Marakana only providing sessions on the West Coast? Do they have anything planned for the NorthEast?
