Put code to CVS or SVN. 2. Add a static and final constant that controls whether app is paid or free. 3. Develop the paid version. 4. Commit code to CVS/SVN. 5. Create a branch for the free version. 6. Edit branch to include necessary changes for free version (package, references to R.java, the constants, etc.) When developing new features, implement them to the paid version first and when they are ready, merge them to the free branch. If possible, it helps to design the codebase so that any possible version-specific code is clearly separated to specific files, not all over the codebase. Any solution that involves Ant or Maven scripting that manipulate the code before building (or god forbid, straight up "bytecode raping" :)) are an extremely bad idea. I have learned in my day job that whatever code you deliver must exist "as is" in version control. If you ship manipulated code, you don't know what code was executed when a user reports an error.

Trying to log in to <a href="http://www.linkedin.com" rel="nofollow">www.linkedin.com</a> from the default Android browser causes the same error. Firefox on my Linux laptop works fine, but when I looked at the source for LinkedIn's login page revealed a 1x1 image from <a href="https://secure-us.imrworldwide.com/cgi-bin/m?ci=us-603751h&cg=0&cc=1&ts=noscript" rel="nofollow">https://secure-us.imrworldwide.com/cgi-bin/m?ci=u...</a>. I believe that's the reason the bad certificate is for *.imrworldwide.com, rather than <a href="http://www.linkedin.com" rel="nofollow">www.linkedin.com</a>. My guess is that the Android browser doesn't include RapidSSL in its list of trusted CAs. Not sure who should fix this; I assume anyone with the same software as me will have the same problem accessing LinkedIn via the browser. I can send a report to LinkedIn, unless you have a special relationship with them that would work better. Bo,

If you continue to have problems try to switch to wi-fi or if you are doing it on wi-fi switch to 3G (or whatever level of phone service you have). If it doesn't help let me know Bo Stone Hi David,

Try to go to http://www.linkedin.com on your mobile browser and login prior to starting Droidin. If you continue to have problems try to switch to wi-fi or if you are doing it on wi-fi switch to 3G (or whatever level of phone service you have). If it doesn't help let me know

I get a message (from the browser?) that the server certificate was issued by an unknown source. Any ideas? I have Android 2.2.2 on an LG Optimus S, using Sprint service that was purchased through Credo Mobile. The cert is for *.imrworldwide.com, issued by RapidSSL / GeoTrust, even though the URL is <a href="http://www.linkedin.com" rel="nofollow">www.linkedin.com</a>.

This actually should happen automatically as Android OS keeps each "raw" contact separately but displays a unified contact based on the first and last name. There are some apps on Android market that allow you to do custom contact syncing based on email or even not related at all Are you referring to the Android contact that was added after you sync your contacts in Droidin?
