An official ODK Collect build requires a signing key for the APK, and a registration of a Google Maps API authorization token linked to that signing key.

If you want to roll-your-own ODK Collect (we prefer that you rename the application package if you do), you would need to use a signing key that you generated yourself and then create your own Google API project and change the AndroidManifest.xml to provide the Google Maps token for that project.

The manifest change is to the entry at line 231 in the manifest https://github.com/opendatakit/collect/blob/master/collect_app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml#L231

My developer guy who added the high res video solution to Collect says he is up to adding support for external writing to SD for the Samsung Galaxy 2 EK-GC200 Camera which runs Android 4.3.

We really need this so our deaf volunteer enumerators can add their video hand signs data to the ODK lexicon form. As Chris mentioned... the His Hands Reader literacy project requires 15GB of video per form, which breaks the bank on any internal SD. I would suppose that camera will be a good test for adding external SD support for ODK because the camera itself allows for writing video to external SD.

We have one problem with moving forward with adding the support for this camera. Last time Mitch had to do the compile because a proprietary library from Google is needed. As I recall it dealt with the GPS location part of the Collect code?

Can someone compile for us or provide the library the necessary library or whatever we were tripping over last time to be able to compile?

I have a Fulbright scholar from a country in Africa that is ready to add his country's hand signs but need this external SD tweak to collect before I send him the camera.

Thanks!
Bob

P.S. I think adding support for this Android camera will be useful to others in Agriculture, Social and Health, Anthropology, etc. Now enumerators can interview by capturing amazing HD quality video into forms.

Mitch,

Is there a work around for ..."registration of a Google Maps API
authorization token linked to that signing key."?

What would need to be commented out to disconnect Google Maps from ODK
Collect AND what functionality would be given up?

My developer guy says that setting up the Google Maps environment is a
hurdle for him.

Thanks!

Bob

Bob,

Don't think so. To use Maps, you do need to get a token that maps to
the signing key.
