Agreed. I was commenting on this workaround's viability to be used by a bad actor attempting to compromise the game and other players of it.

Patching an APK like this would break parts of the app, specifically the parts that are arguably the most crucial to be followed by pinned API calls. For example, in-app purchases via Google Play that validate the app's signing would all fail. Similarly restoring any previous in app purchases would also fail. Finally, you wouldn't be able to install this APK without uninstalling the valid production APK first, again due to signature/signing mismatch.

Yep definitely, Urban is a great option.

Appboy, Kahuna, or (shameless plug) mParticle if you want multiple options :)

Parse authenticates with GCM using the API key that you provide, as do all other services AFAIK. So, all developers need to do is use that same key in their new push provider, and their push tokens will work.

The tricky part is actually making sure that all of your push tokens that are in the Parse database are migrated to the push provider that you've chosen.

EDIT: I stand corrected, looks like you have the option to use their key as you said, my apologies! Should have figured the founder of OneSignal would know ;-)

The Soda Ban is NYC-only, in response to the city's childhood obesity epidemic. Albany is a long way from the NYC mayor's office, both geographically and politically ;)

Also, the improved 808 SoC at 20nm manufacturing process should offer better battery life over the 800 in the N5, even if they had the same battery capacity (which they don't, so it's a double-whammy there).

Though hard to say if this is true, it seemed their argument during the presentation was that the bigger sensor/pixels in both devices make up for the lack of OIS, and they specifically compared performance against the Nexus 6.
