Management of screen space. Android was designed to be modular and it does a great job of that, but what may be sized perfectly for one user may be to small/big for another. A great example of this is the Sony xperia Z ultra, this is a 6.4 inch device but uses a phone layout. enabling tablet layouts, improves the user experience by taking better advantage of the screen size.

We are happy for them. Its always a great experience to see a passion grow into something great. In the short term we aren't planning on going that route but if we found the right investor or partner, we would definitely consider it. In terms of goals, we are trying to push the boundaries of user experience. If you look at Android today numerous features were inspired by the Android community.

Sadly Google removed the code for tablet ui with the kitkat release.

Alot of us are CS majors. But me personally have been modding phones since the Windows Mobile 2005 days. I Do it cause it allows me to create something that is useful.

I'm actually a Bio major but heavily considering changing it since I enjoy building roms and learning to code so much :) First started messing around with my Palm Pre on WebOS enabling developer mode, installing homebrew apps, etc. Then I got my first android in the Epic 4G Touch and I've been hooked on building custom roms ever since.

I'm a starting computer engineering student. I got into custom ROMs when I got the original Nexus 7. PA was actually the first ROM I tried and I loved it. I started doing my own builds with some added features and couldn't stop.

I'm also a tech student, I was a proud user of WinMo till Android arrived and I started building Custom ROMs and developing for it.

A Computer Tech undergrad student here. Android has always held an interesting flag when it comes to crescendo potentials. It's fun, it's exciting, it's challenging. I started messing with Android about 2 years ago. Everyone here, if I may speak for them, is here because we find Android Development an elating & exciting experience.

CS major... fell in love with PA and started helping out with bug fixes. Eventually got an invite to join. This has actually been my first Open Source project and my first dive into modding the Android framework

Software developer all my life in so many languages i wouldn't be able to name them all. Not the best coder but i make money by implementing ideas. Currently in Switzerland with an institute startup-up/spin-off. Android is a side-project or hobby.
