[DEV REQ] Gamertag Mobile(just an idea) - General Questions and Answers

Ok I know there is already an My Gamertag App out there and it is a good one. But idk about everyone else but i want something a little more diverse. Here is my idea, one of the great thinks about the xbox360 is its friends and message system. Your friend comes online or you get a message a little popup comes up telling you. I want this but on my phone.
Details:
Program that you login to your gamertag and it displaces all your friends and messages. When a new friend goes online a popup(like txt message notification) comes up saying there are online(like on xbox360). When you get a new message a popup comes up telling you have a new message and from who.
While i do have some programming experience it is very limited. Considering this app would log you into your gamertag i think it would be rather difficult to write...but i think this would be an awesome app, one that i would be willing to put money towards .
What do you think?

Does Microsoft have such an api?

to be honest im not sure, i know you can do all the things i stated by logging into your tag at xbox.com.
The only part that is up in the air is the messages, because friend information can be check online or with the apps like my gamertag the only diffense would be the popup system.
The messaging part may not be possible.

From wat i know so for a friend on mine as an iphone and there is an app like that on there, but the application also even shows his avitar. the apps is called "inxes"
http://www.tuaw.com/2008/12/15/manage-xbox-live-friends-with-inxes/
but i dont think u will be able to login, hopefully microsoft is working on a app like that, if i'm correct a couple years ago there were planning on making xboxlive on WinMo.

i would love an app like this. i have downloaded the my gamer tag app and this prog is great but i would like it to be intigrated into the TouchFlo3D so you get an xbox 360 friends list on the phone so it will operate like the weather tab. so all you have to do is log in your xbox account and it gives you your friends list of who is online and doing what also the ability to send and recieve messages would also be good. then all you have to do is goto the tab and press update to get it refreshed. just a thought. what do you think? is it possible?

Bump? I, for one, would really like to see this app.

Text Messenger - The Text Message Away Message

Hey all, I'm new here but was looking for an outlet to announce applications. I have just finished up my first Android App and was hoping for some reviews/comments/suggestions. Criticism Encouraged!
Text Messenger is a simple away message application for your Android phone. There is a full version for $1, and a DEMO version (where you cannot change the default away message) for FREE.
Give it a try, then give it a Buy!
EDIT: updated barcodes to go directly to Android Market, rather than through AndroidZoom.
Just checking in to see if anyone had a chance to review my app, and had any comments/suggestions/criticism?
To make it easier to find I will post some barcodes (DEMO and Full Version) for the apps.
Thanks.

I'll check out the demo version real quick and tell you my thoughts =P

Don't mean to be mean, but don't people take a non-reply to mean that the recipient is away/busy ?
I can't test this because I use gvoice for texting.

That's alright, I know this isn't for everyone. With the current state of texting, especially with the younger crowd, I have seen many instances where people say "What the [email protected]#$ why aren't they texting me back!!!"...I guess this is more for those types.
Also, I find myself in situations where I really should not be reading/responding to text messages but I end up giving in knowing there is a message. With Text Messenger you can set your Away Message and automatically put your phone on silent at the same time. So when I am driving, in class, or anywhere else where I shouldn't be answering a text I do not feel the urge.
Pretty cool - few suggestions
Hey, just checked out the demo version of the app. I'm a brand new Android user. Coming from windows mobile I needed an app like this. Just a few thoughts as to what would make this an even better app. These are just suggestions and ways that I would like to be able to use the app.
1. Allow for profiles to be set up. Such as during certain user defined times, the app automatically sets an away status.
2. Allow for away statuses to be enable for specific contacts, like a black/white list.
3. Set up a quick reply list so I can select from some predefined messages such as "Call if it's an emergency", "In class"...
Keep us updated...
Nice app by the way

I do not know why you would not be able to find my app? Did you try scanning the barcodes I supplied? Do you have Android 2.2?
Anyways, I attached the apk for the DEMO Version of the app. In this version you can not change the away message, but if you purchase the full version for $1 USD the away message is completely customizable.
Thank you for the interest in my app!

Thanks for trying out my app.
I plan on adding a customizable list of away messages, so you can easily set "In class" etc...look for that update soon.
The Black List & Scheduled away messages are a great idea, although the initial decision creating the app was to make it as simple and quick as possible. Adding these features would be great, but also add more complication. I suppose there is no harm in adding these as optional features though, since if people wanted a quick easy solution they could simply not enable them.
I will keep you updated on the changes coming, look for your #1 to definitely be added with the possibility of #2 and/or #3.
Thanks again for trying my app, and leaving feedback!
P.S. Anyone else that has tried the app it would be great if you could rate it on the Android Market. Only a few people have rated it/commented, and I know many more have given it a try.
I like the demo app. I would like to try the full version but don't see it on the Market. I tried the posted barcode and it never loads the link in the browser.
Thanks,
I downloaded the donation version to be able to say what I want. What an awesome application. I can easily say one of my top 5 most useful. I set it when I'm driving, in a meeting, flying (in the air force) or when I'm busy with a million other things. Here is my list of features I would love to see, forgive me for any duplicates from any other post;
1. A widget! One that when pressed will turn on the auto reply AND have a drop down list of saves/pre-made responses.
2. Option to turn off notification bar icon, I hate that big green booger on my minimalist bar.
3. Option to save messages for future use through a quicky list
4. Option to have messages be contact specific (I would love to see this and would justify a higher price as it would make this an essential app, on par with SetCPU!)
5. Lastly, some notification of auto reply being sent, I'm currently not seeing one on my phone.

I'm using Android 1.6 on my HTC Tattoo. I scanned the barcode but I think i cant find it because my resolution (240 x 320) might not be supported.
I would like to buy the app, but i live in Belgium, and payd apps can not be bought from the market.
I just tried to install the app using the apk-file, but it doesn't works. Can u make a version for 1.6 plz, i really like it.

Thanks for giving it a try. If you press the menu button when in the DEMO Version there should be an option for "More Apps" this will bring you to the Android Market where you can see the FULL Version. I also attached a different barcode, this should link directly to the market rather than through AndroidZoom...let me know if that works for you? Otherwise just search "Robott Creations" or "Text Messenger" on the Android Market.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have heard more than once the need for customizable preset messages & option to turn off the notification "booger". I look to add those features this week. The rest of the suggestions I also agree with, and will hopefully work them in. I was looking to keep the app extremely simple, but the feedback so far has made it sound like the app is "too simple".

I am not too familiar with the Belgium Android Community, but it sounded like you said you are unable to buy any apps? If so, I do not know what I can do about that. But I will look into comparability for Android 1.6.
Thanks everyone, the feedback I have been getting has been excellent. I look to add some of these features shortly and supply you with exactly what you are looking for.
Version 1.5 Released
I read all the suggestions, and am trying to get them in ASAP.
Here are some features to hold you over until the next Update.
New to Version 1.5
------------------
* Custom preset Away Messages
- Easy interaction via Context Menu
* Enable/Disable Notifications
* Text Forwarding (Currently only supports other Phone #s)
* Minor Cosmetic Fixes
More Updates Coming Soon!
I hope the Android 1.6 support will be there soon. Such a lovely app ...

Both depend on the support of the project. Currently I have been hearing good feedback, but the number of downloads does not assure me it would be worth the time of creating an Android 1.6 version and/or porting to Windows Mobile.
I am currently working towards Version 2.0, and after that I will investigate porting and 1.6 support.
Thank you both for showing interest.
Any way of choosing which Apps this works with, as just had it in a weird loop on my facebook status. As I have fb notifacations sent to my mobile via texts, its put all away messages on my facebook, then as I had a new post, got sent a new text, which then triggered another away message...... Turned it off for now, but really good and usefull app, if you can have it only work with chosen apps. Like Handcent only.

I wrote an app to control my phone through google talk

Hey guys!
I developed TalkMyPhone, an open-source app that enables you to control your phone from google talk. It's like android-notifier on steroids, since it brings almost the same features and you don't need wifi/bluetooth enabled.
I can't post links since I'm new here. Google for talkmyphone or look for it on the market.
Developers: I'm open to contributions
Users: please use the issue tracker for suggesting features
I don't have many non-french users since the info did not spread very well outside of french blogs, so I'm posting it here. I hope someone will find it useful and write something about it.

Do you need multiple GTalk accounts in order to talk to it, or can you "talk to yourself" ?
Niice Idea
sweeeet thx
Doesn´t work on my SGS. After trying to to login the app closed. And now i can´t open it again. Even every other app wont start.
Only a restart helped. Uninstalled.
But the idea is interessting. maybe i´ll give a try again later.

The 2 solutions work. Talking to yourself is possible in gmail, but you cannot initiate the conversation, so in this case, best is to use a third party client like pidgin. Otherwise you can set up a second account. Any standard jabber account is possible.
Accounts delivered at jabber.org are *very* easy to get. You don't need to give your email address, you don't need to sign an agreement. You just have to fill a captcha to prove you're human.

Weird. Some unlucky people experiment bugs like this one. I don't know where this comes from, and I try to improve the code. It works 100% of the time for me, so all I can do is look at 'adb logcat' traces users leave on the bugtracker. If you wish to do so, it might improve your chances to see this fixed
giving it a shot
you may try changing your preferences.xml to the attached (just because of english, just change .zip to .xml)
i have to find the other file, because i noticed some other grammatical things. no worries tho
and, 'additional settings', in the xml has too many 'n's, lol

Pretty Neat
I was able to go on Google Talk on my PC and send messages to my phone. The copy:text feature I can definitely see myself using so that I don't have to type long URLs in the browser. The other functions seem like they would be nice if you lost your phone or if it was stolen. Overall a pretty neat app! Thanks!

HTC Incredible
Virtuous Rom 2.7
So I have the app running and logged in. (Phone is logged into [email protected])
On my PC I have [email protected]. I message from PC to phone (John to Paul) and nothing happens.
I tried "where" "ring" etc, but the app doesn't respond. What am I doing wrong?
What next...
When you start the app on the phone, make sure you input your google information and then start the app. If you have Google Talk up on your PC, it should pop up a window for you to type commands into (talk to/control your phone). It did for me anyway. Type a "?" to get a list of the commands...

Hmm, I did all this. Let me see where the issue is:
My phone's Google account is set to [email protected].
I put in [email protected] and my password into TalkMyPhone.
I start up TalkMyPhone and it logs in -- successfully.
I go to my PC and log into gmail on [email protected].
I message from my PC ([email protected]) to my phone ([email protected]).
I get the message but nothing happens with TalkMyPhone.
Can you tell me where the issue is?
i entered in all of my information too and nothing seems to work, the app says loging in .. then that its successful. but then nothing can be done from there.
i cant even log in
i always get the message: "login failed" and then "stopping service"
i tried setting it on "use the phones account settings"
then i turned that off, and manually put in my gmail-settings - still didnt work
Same issues over here... Got it all connected, reciving messages from the phone works fine, too (welcome, battery, incomming callings) but sending commands doesn't work for me.
Got a HTC Magic/Sapphire with CM6 (2.2) running on it.
I had the same problem. I changed the GTalk Port to 5222 and entered my ****@googlemail.com instead of ****@gmail.com
Works perfect on my HD2 (Android ) Thank you!
When I log in on phone i get this gTalk message on my pc from my own account:
Welcome to TalkMyPhone. Send "?" for getting help
Battery level 78%
Works just perfect...

do i need to have the real gtalk installed on my computer?
doesnt applications like trillian for windows work?
I tried Pidgin and it works but I use the GMail-Chat because it's my info hub
Anyways, great work chm.duquesne, this is a really great application.
Now there just needs to be a way in GTalk to turn off the chat notification in Android for a single contact
// Edit
The "where" feature is really awesome, mate.
Nothing serious but the reply feature does not work for me. When I received a SMS and I type "reply:This is my reply" it answers "No match for "+491234567890" (the number being the correct number, of course).

I use gTalk and it works.
Is it possible to get some kind of ping button on the phone, that opens the conversation window on the pc? I cannot figure out how to open a conversation with myself in gTalk.

Any application that can read SMS' out loud (possibly through a bluetooth device?)??

I wanted an application that could do this but all I could find was the one from blueAnt which only works with their specific bluetooth device...
You could use Tasker and use this profile - price looks high but it's VERY powerful once you know what you're doing.
Comes with a trial mode for around seven days.
+1 for Tasker. Brilliant app.
I have my 'in car' profile set to read texts - on text receipt it pauses the music player, then reads the senders contact name, and then the body of the text. Awesome.
i was planning on getting the blueant Q1 (just found it for $25). are you saying it won't work with handcent in reading a txt message?
edit: forget it...answered my own question by going to their site. "Hear text messages read aloud on your Q1 when connected to an Android device with our Android application."
What about the vlingo application. It has an email and sms reader that reads the message out loud when activated, but I haven't managed to get it to read the message through the Bluetooth headset

SMS Speak
Just stumbled across this thread looking for something else. But thought I'd chime in. I use SMS Speak (the paid one, not the free one - two different companies/products), and it works great. I can get incoming texts and reply, all orally. I'm curious about the other products mentioned, though...

[APP][2.2+] Where R U? - Location via SMS

Hi guys,
So I decided to create an app based on a simple idea my fiance gave me, and thought I'd come to you guys for some feedback.
In a nutshell, it's an app that will respond to an SMS trigger with the users current location.
1. Someone SMSs you "Where R U?"
2. Your phone works out its location to the closest 100m (if possible)
3. The app generates a google maps link
4. The app SMSs it back
That's the core of the app, but I've also created a "premium" version that has some other features such as a customisable sms trigger, geotagging, blacklist/whitelist options among others
What I'm hoping to get is a bit of feedback on my app and perhaps the way I'm going about a paid version of it. I'm very open to suggestions and I'm happy to provide the apk to the full version for those who want to try it.
Here's the link
Cheers!
*reserved*
Very cool. Thank you for developing

Hi, I was wondering if you can please provide information about how to use the black list/white list thing in free version, because I only want to send replies only one person so if I enable white list and add that specific contact to the back list /whitelist list, then will it work or not. I need an answer for this from you and asked from you to add details about this list configuration information on the Google play

Hi chorauoc,
Simply set the blacklist type to "whitelist", then add the contact you want to the list. The app will then ignore requests from anyone else Sorry for the ambiguous use of "blacklist", but I didn't really know what else to call it I'll update the app description to make it a little easier to understand.
Thanks for the feedback!

I love this! Its a simple way for me to know where my 8 year old daughter is and make sure she is where she should be if out at a friends playing! I can see this app will become invaluae to me as my daughter gets older and more adventurous in life. Thanks for this.
One suggestion for paid version feature is hide app draw icon if at all possible? As this would stop it being messed with by said daughter who by the way knows I keep tabs on her but accepts and understands why I do so, as my mother used to say 'Only privacy any child should have is in the bathroom!' But just because she knows does not mean she won't mess

Let me know if you think of anything else.
I bought the paid app tried it out with my girlfriend but I couldn't get it to work. I used the default phrase and she sent me two messages asking "where are you?" But nothing happened. I have a note 2 on sprint, and when I clicked on last location it crashed. Nice idea though.

Hi there,
I'd be pretty keen to send you a bit of a debug version of the app to get some more info on why this is happening. I'm sure there are hundreds of possible combinations of settings and the like I missed while testing Would you be happy to install and test an apk if I sent it to you??
Can you make an improvement
Hi,
I really like this app and i would like to make a suggestion and i will be really happy if you can implement it on your app,
Ie
Can you implement an emergencies response to send the contact in the white-list, means if you could be able to identify the emergencies like not answering , sim change, not switch on for long time, etc.
If i further explain this,
Suppose I am not answering phone calls for log time period or my phone is suddenly switch off and not switch on for longer time (may be day or 3 days) , then we can assume that i may in a trouble so i would be happy to send my location via sms to my white-list contact, but at that time i may not be able to do it manually so if you can implement a way to auto response to contact that would be really nice. Also let say someone stolen my phone and tried to replace the sim card of it, so at that time you can implement a auto response massage by saying your current location as well as the new sim number (In order to do this you may have to record current sim details in a database and check periodically when a new sim change occurs ).Also if you can add a method to add pre-define locations, means if i or my contact went to home then i might be able to save my current location as home or if i or my other contact went to someplace (let say office) that we commonly goes we should be able to add it into a list, so when in the next time when my contact or i went to that places we should received sms by saying that we are in that place now (Simply means by doing this we can be sure that the person i was wondering to locate arrives safely home or any other pre-define places even i forget to send location massage via sms).
So if you can implement such a auto response method then this app will be a great one. Hope you will do this
I wil add ideas for make this app better in future :fingers-crossed:

I love this! Its a simple way for me to know where my 8 year old daughter is and make sure she is where she should be if out at a friends playing! I can see this app will become invaluae to me as my daughter gets older and more adventurous in life. Thanks for this.
One suggestion for paid version feature is hide app draw icon if at all possible? As this would stop it being messed with by said daughter who by the way knows I keep tabs on her but accepts and understands why I do so, as my mother used to say 'Only privacy any child should have is in the bathroom!' But just because she knows does not mean she won't mess

So I've finally managed to implement your request (It took me a little longer than I planned ) You should get the update in a few hours. If you want to bring the icon back, install the Unhider and toggle it there Let me know how it works out for you.

Hi,
I really like this app and i would like to make a suggestion and i will be really happy if you can implement it on your app,
Ie
Can you implement an emergencies response to send the contact in the white-list, means if you could be able to identify the emergencies like not answering , sim change, not switch on for long time, etc.

I really like your idea with the emergency contacts, but I think it's a little out of scope for this app. Could be a good idea for my next app though
I like your 2nd idea too, but that would require constant location monitoring which can be very taxing on the phones battery. I like the idea of being able to save locations though, so the app could respond "I am currently at home" or some such You have plenty of good ideas!!
found small bug
Hi,
First of all thank you for your attention of my comments, anyway I found a small bug in this app, that is if we close this app using a task killer or clean master apps or anything have the capability of stop the service then this app not restart properly and we have to manually start the app again to get work, so can you fixed this bug, because as far as I believe the app should be in active status of anytime, hope you will consider about it, finally are you going to implement the location savings things in your app

[Q] How to know if im affected by mobilespy android keylogger?

Im having a doubt that my smartphone is being keylogged by this thing called mobilespy android keylogger. Everyone is watching everything I do with my smartphone including the photos I take and save, facebook and whatsapp messages( both incoming and outgoing) and even the music I hear. My friends are responding to whatever I do by uploading photos in fb, whatsapp and through status updates in both. I dont want to get rid of this keylogging. I just want to get the details of this keylogging like whoever it is senting to and any proof to show them. Because I want to catch them red-handed. Please help!!
I posted about this issue in xda several months ago, but this thing called mobilespy never came to my mind. Thats why Im asking. Also, I want to know this thing works in safe mode too? Please help!
Help me!
It is hard to tell since some mobile spy app like mobile spy, spyfone app and iKeyMonitor are totally invisible. But you can restore your phone to get rid of such apps if you suspect it.

Here is my professional advice based on several facts:
You joined XDA in October 2014; posted four messages about being spied on and keylogged on Android; have had and continue to have numerous issues being hacked/taken over; you use firewall and other android apps to no avail; all other non android equipment works fine for you. So, Android is "definitely" the culprit.
Here is the advice: ask for a raise from Mr. Cook or better have him make you the chief of Apple's propaganda department...

Dont let your afraidness take you over!
Go and make a factory reset of your phone.
Next time buy a blackphone and you and your mind have peace...
All the best!
