I have a rooted phone. Im going to the Daytona 500 this weekend and thought it would be cool to listen to the drivers and such. When I try to download the app from texting NASCAR to 7777 it says I dont have a compatible phone. I suspect due to the root.
Anyone have this app I can download and throw on.
working on it
here ya go, just remove the .zip at the end, this site won't let you upload .apk files
You sir, are the man.

Does that app even work? I tried installing it and it just said "loading" for about 5 minutes.
But I guess its not a question of if it works or not its a question of getting the .apk
What exactly does it do
Where do these mods keep coming and disappearing from? They are like ninja-moderators.

The app worked great today. It allows me to listen to drivers and team chatter from the different cars.
Its a great app for Nascar fans, albeit, Im not a huge fan. But being at the Daytona 500 and being able to listen to the teams is fun. Its was a great race.
Thanks!

No, it doesn't work or at least it is extremely buggy.
The app is sort of a portal for NASCAR news and also provides telemetry, scoring and audio feeds on race day. Its actually a great app if you're in to NASCAR (which I am) but its basically un-usable on android. It was slow on my blackberry but at least everything worked.
When I used it on my hero, the backlight would time out and the app would not update data. Also, it was just plain buggy with some screens not even loading.
I wish they would fix these issues.
Wow! I just upgraded to dc 2.1 and downloaded the Sprint cup mobile app and its running like a top. So fast and everything seems to work so far. Most functionality doesn't kick in until the race starts so i'll report back later but so far I'm just blown away. This is the way stuff is supposed to work!
I just wanted to follow up: the audio did not work during the race yesterday. No audio, no options, no nothing. Everything else I tested worked fine except there is no keep-alive option and the leaderboard is a little flakey when the phone wakes up. The audio may have been a Sprint problem. They are just as flakey as their software. Have to try again next week at Martinsville.
any way too?
Any way to get this to work on Verizon?

Probably not. I'm guessing that data must pass through a Sprint proxy to prevent that. That's just speculation, though.
Yeah
Yeah it installs fine...but wont even run before sayin im not sprint or nextel. This is friggin stupid id pay sprint to use it. VZ had this app for years until Winston gave up the NASCAR sponsorship
Any clue what may be wrong with that apk thedudejdog? I have installed many apks and never had an issue. I install this NASCAR and it installs...but when I open it, the app just stays on the main screen and says its loading for 3 minutes or so...then it reboots my phone.
Any help?
Well if your not on Sprint it wont work. That's the issue some of us want fixed.
Here's the link, I'm sure he will post it here a little later but for those who can't wait

You just know this sub forum is BURNING HOT right now when this thread has 79 views in 12 minutes LOL
Yup, 1 minute from downloading left. LOL, exciting stuff happening all over XDA today.
i really wish i wasn't so stubborn on waiting for camera and mms.
I am still waiting too.... but its ok, I am happy trying them out and seeing where we are at. I will be more than happy whenever it happens
2.1 uh oh
Tehe, thus far I've held off on the 2.1 builds because stuff hasn't been working, I guess since I'm backing up my device and switching ROM builds today anyway I'll have to just accidentally pop this on there and see what happens :-D
Edit: Was unable to get the Market to work at all. No FC message, just fails to start.
Doesnt have all market apps
Olive juice gbhil!!!
Just because I'm straight and don't feel like saying "I love you." I guess you could substitute "Alligator food" in there too.
Thanks for the hard work!

Yea.. I noticed the "PROTECTED" ones arent showing up.. but unprotected paid apps are.

Can anyone confirm if the Verizon FIOS Mobile Remote app is or isn't available in the Market with this ROM?
Wow, this ROM FREAKING FLIES.
The pinch to zoom on the home screen is blazing fast. I am extremely impressed. 2.1 on our devices is going to be awesome. Thanks again for your hard work Gbhil!!!!
**Edit**
Location, like all other 2.1 ROMs I've tried though, is off. It initially said I was in Kansas City, which is right, but it quickly changed to "Washington" which is what the other roms said, which DEFINITELY isn't right
Could someone who has run both this one an flipz new release compare the two? I'd really like to know how they differ if they do at all. Thanks in advance

Oh trust me I know that reading is a good thing, I'm not that big of a n00b lol, but I just wanted some first hand experiences like how the ROMS feel, not necessarily what's in them
To add to my previous post, the location services are working fine, it just seems (like in other 2.1 roms) that the location noted in the HTC home screen clock is what isn't working properly.
I get the correct location returned in one of my test apps, and see myself fine in the Google maps v4, so I dunno...maybe there's something missing with the HTC Location Services apk?
Oh yeah, and SetCPU is awesome on this rom too
would i have to wipe this coming from fresh rom??
i had force close on "3g Update"?!?!
I just noticed: txt messages after daylight savings got a bit screwy for some people, where messages would be stamped an hour earlier and be out of order. Now Ive sent and recieved a few txts and they are showing the correct order and timestamps.
Anyone else?
Using Gumbo 2.1
dying to try damageless's v1 rom, but;
wtf is SecretControlModem.apk (and odex)
maybe just being paranoid...
I had a previous post about this. It was in the original 2.1 flip and them posted. No one ever answered me. So, it's not Damage's.
google search gives nothing either. it references these threads. fishy.
Why don't you flash and pull those files out and see what happens

i am
also im not saying anyone has DONE anything fishy with their roms... (we're all basically using the same rom now anyway, whole lot of cut and paste going on) its just weird that this package is referenced NOWHERE

I saw that in the Eris dump when i was playing with it. The way i figure, if it's some call home tattletale app built into test software, it calls back to verizon and I have unlimited data - at that point I chuckled and stopped caring.

it comes from the Eris dump. If it's some tracking software put in there to keep people from sharing it, it will call back to Verizon. It wont cost me anything, since data is free.
then i realized i was getting freaked out over phone software, so I just laughed at myself and installed anyway.
It very well could be something that whoever leaked it out put in. I don't have anything I care about on my phone. I'm not suggesting it's safe, just that I thought I was silly.

Can't hurt to try it.

I un-apk'ed so to speak...and it was just an icon.
um... can we have some of the original developers comment on this ? lol

It was in the Eris ROM. I don't know why any of the other devs didn't catch it.
how do i remove this? i tried it via root explorer and it didn't work...
hmmm. under further inspection i believe it takes screenshots as it contains the same exact instructions as shootme in the apk. very strange. kinda scary. i remember someone on said on the forum where the eris was leaked tht the guy who posted it will be able to see everything you do and he and the guy who started the post has only 1 post on xda to this day
but no big worrys lol it also contains png's with htc's logo.

Yea how do we get rid of this? If it's taking screenshots wouldn't they be stored somewhere on the phone - at least temporarily?

im not sure. in the resources theres nothing to specify that. its like it takes a screenshot when you do something to trigger it and bam it sends? lol creeeepy
I've tried examining the apk myself, where are you seeing instructions that relate to ShootMe? Is it not also possible it is similar because you are looking at aspects of the APK that would be shared across most APKs in general?
Not saying this isn't something malicious, just curious what we have to suggest that it truly is.
I'm hoping its a case of "Paranoia will destroy ya", but I supposed it is possible we are all running some kind of screen-grabbing trojan. In the meantime, either follow gbhil and remove them, or hope its something legit we just don't understand.
You have until tomorrow to download wave secure for android and get a free lifetime account for whatever phone (sim) you put it on! Go and get now!
I'd love to but I still cannot activate because I dont have text messaging on my phone, it does not work with google voice messages
Posted on their forum, its a known issue.

Thanks, planned on signing up at some point but just did it now while it's free
Thanks for the heads up. Just signed up, it was easy as pie. Already have my SMS backed up and tried the remote location feature - it was accurate within a block, which was impressive. Can't beat the price, too!
Had it for a while.. cannot stress how awesome it is, get it while you can!

everyone I know with android devices went and signed up after I gave them a quick demo.
If you uninstall this, then you're screwed? Can you ever get it back?
as far as I know signing up on the site sets up an account that is good for whatever sim you registered.
Also there is a an app on the market now that locks down your phone if wave secure is uninstalled! even more protection for your device.
You may not get the phone back but at least whoever steals it cant use it either.

If you mean as far as the free account goes, as long as you have created your account on phone and website, should be able to reinstall at any time.
Well they can hard reset, but a random thief/finder may not know that.
I have the uninstall protection.
AWESOME.

wouldn't that be the same as a remote with wave secure? I guess if they wiped the phone as soon as they stole it before you had a chance to lock it down. Once its locked they can't reset, or is there some other way to reset that I am not aware of?
Reset via the bootloader, indefensible.
How does this program compare to Mobile Defense? I have that installed on my N1 right now, but if people here like Wave Secure more, I might make the switch over. Thanks!
Get it while it's free and decide for yourself... you don't have to use it if you prefer Mobile Defence

Pull the battery?
Thanks for letting us know. It would be shame to miss a life time subscription on this.
That being said... i'm a bit disappointed with it. Location service is really bad... all it does it show your phone at the closest tower. It showed my phone almost a half a mile away. No way I would ever find it. Also, any command issued seems to take forever, or, as I just saw, not work at all "Your phone failed to lock". The first time it locked but took an abnormal amount of time (their words). I'm guessing its the fact that its a Singapore SMS coming into AT&Ts network.
None the less, it can only get better. Thanks again.

Sounds like it couldn't get location from your GPS and failed back to cell tower location. When I do it sitting in my house it shows a a circle no bigger then my property centered on my house on google maps!
Thanks for the heads up! *downloads*
What he said ^
Awsome! I did this without even knowing! :d
OMG, I saw this video on that new app for the Galaxy S.
Is there a way to port it to the EVO?
Road SMS KB App on Galaxy S
saw it too, pretty sweet im def interested
Now thats an Interesting feature....
In for this.
That is brilliant.
That is sweet!!!
guessing its just goinna be an apk, direct install, but you never know..
that is sweet, we will have it before you know it. it will just be an apk I assume
Better yet, can we get it as a live wallpaper?
that app is cool. such a simple yet brilliant idea.
I like and wouldn't mind having it on our phone. BUT, when I text, I don't hold my phone in front of me. I usually have it down a bit lol. None the less I wouldn't mind seeing it on our phone
is ther ea keyboard like that in the market with just clear buttons, I would love to have that.

Pretty [email protected] cool feature if you ask me.
Hopefully this will reduce the number of wrecks-while-texting, but then again I think to myself; "How many people will actually own this phone AND use this feature"

I think its meant to be used while driving so you can hold the phone up and still keep an eye on the road. Thats the only time that I'd ever use it. I dont text and drive often....but it sure would be helpful those times that I do it.
I'd be safer if I just called them though, LOL

Samsung clarified that it is for pedestrians. Could you imagine the **** storm if they were encouraging driving and texting in any way?
Awesome!
Wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of some jerk that hit my car because he thought he could see the road in front of him using the Road SMS app lol
Unfortunately something tells me that what was once thought to be a good idea on Samsung's part, will eventually lead to lawsuits because of ignorant people
