What am I supposed to do? There's NOT one installation of my app at next day of release

I know the feeling. Releasing an app with my brother has made me more appreciative of people that try out apps. I'll try it out and post in your other thread. :)

Also the android market seems to take sometime to update the statistics. It showed 0 downloads on the app when we released it until the next day.
 
I realize that English may not be your first language, but not having everything grammitically correct is an immediate turn off for a lot of people.

I wouldn't say "a lot". A very small minority with nothing at all to add to a straightforward request other than pathetically snide irrelevant (not to mention incredibly ironic) remarks maybe, but I wouldn't class that as "a lot".

Anyway OT. I'll give it a try too. I for one totally ignore the what's new app tab and tend to focus on searches and ratings. I guess its a bit chicken and egg - until you get a rating then users will tend to shy away, but to get a rating you need users. Guess the best approach is to do what you're doing - raise awareness via popular forums and the like.
 
Also remember Google only updates the download stats in the Developer Console like every 2 days.... and even then it's sometimes late.

I didn't base my post solely on my personal feelings. I routinely hear comments like mine in regards to other issues from my friends. I used that as the basis. Ok, so perhaps you would have been more agreeable if I had used "some people" instead of "a lot"? Other than that, I categorically disagree that my post was derogatory/mocking or irrelevant.

The OP asked for any ideas or hints. After taking the time to look over the app as it is on the Market, that was the best I could come up with. After all, the OP was pleading, and I provided the feedback he was asking for.

I fail to see the irony, please spell it out for me.
