Hi, This is Jorge from IT GLOBAL SOLUTION LLC, based in the U.S. I have strong experience with Flutter mobile development, Android background services, GPS tracking, map integrations, PHP backend architecture, API development, and third-party SDK integrations. Your sports social app is a good fit because it requires reliable background location tracking first, then a scalable Phase 1 structure with login, nearby users, IM, profiles, and activity tracking. I can build the offline Android demo using AMap, with continuous GPS collection, route drawing, moving/stationary detection, interval switching, visible logs for timestamp/accuracy/state, and source code with build instructions. I understand the importance of testing background tracking under locked screen, background mode, and battery-saving conditions, especially on Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, and other Chinese Android devices. For Phase 1, I can support Flutter iOS/Android development, PHP backend setup, database schema, REST APIs, SMS login, LBS nearby users, user profiles, sports route tracking, and NetEase Yunxin IM integration with your user system. My focus would be stable tracking, clean architecture, SDK compatibility, clear documentation, and store-ready delivery. Let’s connect and go over the details. Best, Jorge

Hey, the background GPS stability on Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, and Vivo devices is a real challenge due to their aggressive power management. I'm used to working with foreground services and vendor-specific optimizations to keep tracking consistent, especially for that 5-second interval. Getting the NetEase Yunxin SDK to play nicely with a custom PHP backend and user system for real-time IM is where things often get complex, but I've handled similar integrations. For the demo, are there any particular edge cases you've encountered with Amap's background location accuracy?

Hi! This is a solid, well-defined first step. The requirement for a stable, 30-minute background GPS tracking demo on locked-screen Chinese devices (Huawei, Xiaomi) is a great way to vet for genuine Android expertise. A few points to confirm: the demo requires drawing the route on an Amap-based map, correct? While the demo is offline, have you considered a backend stack for the full app? We have extensive experience with Node.js for scalable systems. We'll build the native Android demo in Kotlin, using a Foreground Service to ensure the GPS remains stable across different OEM battery-saving modes. This approach is similar to a logistics tracking app we built that required non-stop background location reporting for fleet management, successfully deployed on a range of challenging Android devices. The key is handling the aggressive battery optimization, which we're prepared for. We agree to the terms and can deliver the demo, source code, and video within 1 day as requested.

Your requirement for a refundable GPS background tracking demo with Amap and NetEase/Tencent IM integration aligns perfectly with my experience building real-time location-aware applications. I've successfully implemented similar background tracking functionalities in fitness apps, ensuring reliable data capture even when the app isn't actively in the foreground, and integrated robust chat SDKs for seamless user communication. My technical approach will involve leveraging Flutter's platform channels to interact with native Android and iOS APIs for precise GPS background tracking. I'll utilize Amap's SDK for accurate location services and implement NetEase/Tencent IM SDKs for real-time messaging and presence. The plan is to set up a background service that continuously records location data, periodically sends updates, and establishes persistent chat connections, delivering a functional demo within your 1-day timeframe. To ensure we are aligned, could you clarify if the background tracking needs to be active only during user-initiated activities (e.g., a run) or continuously while the app is running? Also, are there specific requirements for battery optimization on the background tracking feature? I'm ready to discuss further and demonstrate this proof-of-concept.

Hi. Background location on Chinese Android is exactly my specialty, and I agree to the offline demo first, that's the right way to prove it. On Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO and Vivo the OS kills background apps hard, so continuous 5 second tracking under lock screen and battery saver comes down to a foreground service with an ongoing notification, a partial wake lock, and getting the app onto each OEM's autostart and battery-optimization whitelist, plus requesting background-location permission correctly per Android version. For the demo: a fully offline Android app, no server, collecting GPS every 5 seconds and drawing the route live on the map, running stable for 30-plus minutes through lock screen, background and battery-saver on those OEMs. I hand over source, build instructions, and a screen-recorded video showing the locked-screen tracking holding on a Huawei or Xiaomi device. For the formal app I've integrated AMap and NetEase/Tencent IM SDKs before, so the map and chat pieces are known ground, not a first attempt. On my experience with Chinese-device background location and relevant work, I'll share the demo repo and tracking videos with you directly so you can run the stability test yourself before we talk budget and timeline for the full build. I can deliver the demo inside the one-day window.
