The Asus EEE Pad series are not phones. READ_PHONE_STATE *might* imply
a uses-feature of android.hardware.telephony. Try adding your own
such uses-feature with android:required=false and see if that
helps.

READ_PHONE_STATE is not on the list of permissions with this effect:

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html#permissions

OTOH, it's close enough that it could be a documentation bug.

It is not READ_PHONE_STATE. None of my apps can be installed on his EeePad,
or on another friends Dell XCD35. Even
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.raghavsood.appholicsrss doesn't
appear to be compatible and all it needs is the internet permission.

Market bug?

Thanks

Possibly. If either of your friends have a file manager installed
(e.g., Astro), email them an APK. Or, host the APK on a Web server
with the proper MIME type settings for APK files. See if they can
install it outside of the Market and run your app successfully. If it
fails to install or run, then there's something real going on. If it
works fine, it might be some Market hiccup.

FWIW, I can tell you that:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.raghavsood.appholicsrss

is available for all the devices I have tied into the Market, which
includes two tablets and five phones. The same is true for Speed Ball
AR.

I tried that already. All of my apps work perfectly on the Dell. We tried
Speed Ball AR on the tablet and it crashed with the same error that occurs
on phones sometimes.

So it is a market bug right?

Thanks

In the absence of any other theories, you are probably correct.

[android-developers] Re: Asus Eee Pad not supported by my app due to manifest settings when nothing is incompatible

2011-08-18 Thread Peter Sinnott
It would be helpful if you mentioned the app in question.

I checked all your apps and they are all compatible with my
Transformer.
None of them are compatible with my phone (HTC Desire).

The apps apk tab has info used for filtering (api level,supported
screens,features,opengl) so maybe something is mentioned there.

 Hi,

 I have an app. I recently asked someone to install the app on their Asus Eee
 Pad. However he told me that his device wasn't supported. I looked at the
 dev console and found out that it is being excluded due to my manifest
 settings. However everything my manifest asks for is available. Another
 market bug or something else?

 Thanks
