How to access file from SDK in android?

What company has the best, most complete Android SDK for their iBeacons?

• I've got some Estimote beacons, but the Android SDK is not as complete as the iOS SDK, and I don't have an iPhone, so I am unable to update or access some of the features of the beacons. Who can I buy beacons from that will allow me full control of them from Android devices and has a full-featured SDK for both platforms for app development?

• Answer:

  Estimote and most of the others  is something that I call a closed beacon. I am not sure if I have the best beacons but my open beacons help with: 3 beacon by competitor USD 99 versus 5 beacon for Euro Longer stand by time Several beacon protocols STK for iOS and Android Source code for the beacon including C complier Button, temperature sensor, accelerometer ADC 10 Bit Serial interface for further sensor Three different mounting brackets Referent design for BLE beacon with standby time up to 6 years by one message per second on 0 dBm and a lot of differences to other beacons more iBeacon – the closed beacon iBeacons   are stupid BLE beacon that transmits their unique ID, mayor  ID, minor   ID and power level. Based on this information you can make an    estimation who went when to a shop, stopped at which shelf or is   sitting  at which table in a restaurant. The beacon migrates to a  clever  tool as  soon as an app on the smart-phones will forward data  from  customers in a  shop or restaurant to a server by Wi-Fi or  cellular  operator (2G, 3G,  4G). It also can be used to push messages  on your  screen of the  smart-phone. The iBeacon will not send the push  message.  The advertising  message will be loaded by Wi-Fi or cellular  radio in  your smart phone.  In front of the fridge in supermarket you  will get a  special offer for  fresh fish, and if fish is out, then they  will offer  you something else.  They will know that you dislike fish  most time and  will maybe not offer  fish to you any more. If they  analyse your trolley  then they will  understand after a while that you  never buy fish. If  you never buy fish  and meet but cheese and eggs  then you are a maybe a  vegetarian and if  they detect that you never  buy eggs and always stay  longer in the shelf  with vegan products, then  will stop to offer you  the eggs. There is a  lot of more information  where the market research  companies are  interested in. They do not  need the data from all off us.  If a few  percent of smart-phone users  will install the app, then they  can start  with optimisation to sell us  more. The Tekmodul beacon you  can get with several firmware  versions. One  firmware version is  supporting several beacon modes. One  out of the  beacon modes is the  straight, stupid iBeacon format. All  this beacon  formats are on  Bluetooth 4.0. BLE is a sub set of BT 4.0.  And BLE  advertiser and BLE  observer is a sub set of BLE. An iBeacon is  nothing  else than a BLE  beacon on BLE adversing and customised  message format  defined by Apple. Tekmodul beacon – the open BLE beacon BLE beacon will wall mounted bracket If   a BLE beacon is following straight the specification of the  iBeacon   format then there is no support of temperature or  accelerometer. It   will send the ID around the clock. Nevertheless, the  Tekmodul beacon  is  a clever beacon. If you order it with standard  programming cable,  then  you can change modes and functions without  touching the  firmware.  There are also some special customised firmware  versions  developed by  Tekmodul / Compotek. The Tekmodul beacon is an  open  beacon. You can get  the schematic diagrams and redesign it. You can   get the IC and make a  complete new BLE beacon. BLE key fob You   also can get the semiconductor die and put it without IC  enclosure   direct on the PCB and bond it direct. This makes only sense if  you   dislike e.g. the size or format of the enclosure of the Tekomodul    beacon. There is one round shaped plastic enclosure with already three    mounting brackets. One is for mounting at wall or asset (e.g.  laptop).   There is also a bracket to build a key-fob. The third version  offers  the  mounting at your arm or leg with wristband. You also can  get the   Tekmodul beacon without enclosure and design your own one  plastic   enclosure. Or you just design your own bracket. Nevertheless  nobody  will  stop you to nick or mill an enclosure out of a piece of  wood. The PRO version of the BLE evaluation kit includes a C complier for developing an own code on the Tekmodul beacon. The Tekmodul beacon comes with a button. The button can be set by programming cable to: On / Off of the beacon and transmitting in iBeacon or Tekmodul beacon format Button   off – as soon you connect the coin cell battery to the beacon  as soon   it will start to transmit in iBeacon or Tekmodul beacon format Button set for push to talk. The button will send one message and go to sleep BLE beacon at wristband The   Tekmodul beacon comes with a temperature sensor and some LEDs.  The   enhanced version holds an accelerometer as well. On its open  hardware   the programming interface is open as well.
