I can't find it on any of the online dictionaries I know: dict.org, word reference, urban dictionary, oxford paravia, garzanti.
To my ears of a non-native speaker, it sounds horrible. Actually it sounds like a word made-up by another non-native speaker that wanted to say something, didn't know how, and just hacked in a word of his language.
The only place I've read it other then user-created-content is the android documentation, so this might or might not be related.
Do you happen to know where did it start to be used, why by did it spread so much, what does it really mean?
