A little frustrated today. When the App is installed on our device, and we see it in the list of Apps on our device... Where is the official place that the device looks to get the "name" that is displayed under the App on the device? Having a bit of a Linux background. I don't put spaces in filenames... so is it a place in BT Self Hosted Control Panel?.. or a place in Eclipse? In Control Panel > Core> Application Name: "Enter a name for the application. Enter only letters, numbers, or spaces - no special characters or punctuation allowed. This name is used in the control panel and does not have to be displayed on the device. You can change what is displayed on the device after downloading the project source code." But that doesn't say where! Presuming in Eclipse.

I'm going to try this http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2168934 Do a F)ind on "The application name is displayed on the phone’s screen as the name of the app".

Linux background, thats cool, so would that make you a more of a fan of android? When you enter it in this box it sets the name of the app: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ifr3gjgpxxylzm5/Screen%20Shot%202014-07-11%20at%206.06.22%20PM.png Which puts it in the strings.xml file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gdfif5ka096cscg/Screen%20Shot%202014-07-11%20at%206.08.42%20PM.png Im guessing Android Manifest presents the essential info about your app to the android system( http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/manifest-intro.html ) and gets it from the strings.xml (if that makes sense ha). well by looking on the screenshot you'll get what Im trying to say: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ofhb8t927uyuydl/Screen%20Shot%202014-07-11%20at%206.11.37%20PM.png To change the name change it in the the space in the first screenshot the download the package again. Or change it in the strings.xml file. res > values > strings

Just seen your other post. you're on the right track

I'm having an awful time. I deleted the existing project in Eclipse (with the wrong screen name). Imported new, and Eclipse "remembered" all of the old Manifest info... like "Debuggable false" and "Google api key"!!!! I'm going back to the Control Panel as you suggest.

First one worked! Changed the Core > App Name. On the device as that name!

Of all the nerdy command line languages that I have seen, LINUX is fun! As with other languages, I use only a portion of it, in certain contexts. When I did ISP work 1995-2001, we had fun with the LINUX Hippie commands, like FINGER. And PING, after we learned it stood for "Packet InterNet Grouper"! Or so we thought... http://ftp.arl.mil/mike/ping.html And "traceroute". Still use them today, when my cable Internet has problems. Even more fun than the old Commodore commands of PEEK and POKE. But, when OSX came about, built on BSD *NIX, I put Terminal to good use. I was at the Genius Bar in Cardiff Wales one afternoon, and showed the "Genius" 1/2 my age, how to do a "arp -a" to see all of the devices on his Router. And "cal" to see a Calendar - of the current month. And a couple of more specific date range "Cal"s like the year he was born. And "dir" with amazing options. I make Kindle .mobi books with a little program written for Terminal.

cool glad you got it sorted out. Thats some cool stuff, I only know how to do about half of that

I made one app for iOS and a another for Android (same content but with different plugins) with the goal for same name in the Appstore/ Google play. I think I solved my name problem with changing it in the strings.xml file (To change the name change it in the the space in the first screenshot the download the package again. Or change it in the strings.xml file. res > values > strings). The "old" name appears on other places (in Manifest and so on...) but it probably doesn't matter...? Or am I missing something? Thanks for the above solution...wouldn´t figure it out by my self.

Thanks I forgot to mention change the pack name in core properties of your app in control panel
