Alright, just curious who'd be interested in an idea like this..
For some time now i've been playing with the iTunes back-end and became more and more interested in developing a "GTunes" (of course, an iTunes-like application for the G1)
With this application you'd be able to manage your music, sync it directly to your phone, manage contacts and ect..
What do you guys think? If it's worth it, i'll start a development svn for anyone else to pitch in.
I think something like this would be awesome as long as it syncs play lists too. I hate not being able to do that at all.
i would love an app as you describe that would be awesome.
yeah would be nice, would be nicer if you just wrote a plugin for foobar2000 or something rather trying to recreate the wheel...that way a more larger group of people can help
heres a link not sure if youve heard of it but its 100 times better than itunes and works on linux, windows, and im sure mac...and most importantly its open source

I already have it working on my phone matter a fact, just not officially a sync app
also banshee has is an app
oh that looks pretty sick, but not using Linux
That would be great, but it would be even better if it played videos as well and showed the movie poster artwork if you have it.
I just want to voice some desire for songbird, while we're throwing opensource music players out there.
I'd like that, but how would you get it to sync contacts etc? Maybe Google account integration? Will it be secure? Maybe use an App on the G1 that can be contacted through the app (Allowing for wifi sync)
Has anyone seen the iphones new app "Dtunes" where the media is DL'd directly to the phone?
Heres a random site talking about it: http://www.modmyi.com/forums/iphone-news/332221-dtunes-like-itunes-but-free.html
Well, as far as plugins go.. you can just use iTunes Agent (http://ita.sourceforge.net/)
i've been using it for weeks now and it works fine. but i want to do a stand alone G1 app.
Of course, i'd probably do a branch of an already made player of sorts.
I like the idea and frankly I don't care how its run as long as it works lol
Yeah I like the idea, if you want to do it I think alot of people would use it!
Just write an Android plugin for Songbird. http://getsongbird.com/
Don't just write it for the G1, think of all the other Android users there will be.

I have two partitions on my SD-card, the first is ext2 with 400MB, used for installing apps by the integrated Apps2SD coming with Cyanogen 4.0.4, the second is vfat with 6 GB, I wanted to put my music here.
When I connect my phone to the PC, Banshee shows the vfat partition with at least 5200 MB free space, after a few seconds Banshee (or my Ubuntu Linux system?) creates a music folder on the ext2 partition and switches over to this partition with 295 MB free space..
Does anybody know how I can make Banshee use the second partition for copying music?
I don't want to hijack haykuro's thread here but I've already got songbird syncing with my G1 almost perfectly (I still have to copy playlists over manually...)
Just use the foldersync plugin PM me if you have any questions so we don't flood this thread with OT stuff...
haykuro - your idea sounds good - would it be a windows app or linux or something...? Since I switched from WinMo to android, I've dumped windows on my laptop too
Cheers,
Smiffy.

Hi all,
I use this website for several years now, thank you all for sharing all your knowledges, roms, etc ...
Today it's my turn to propote my app
I made a music player with file browsing, 10 months ago, and I updated it.
Did you ever have music files without tags ? (for example ripped from your CDs)
Did you ever add some music in a "new music" folder in your memory card, without knowing exactly all the artist / albums ?
Do you know the "unknown artist" who sings the "Track 01", even if your file name is correct ?
For all those cases, this application will save you
I should work fine on your phone but many of you have custom roms so I would like to have feedbacks.
You can contact me at [email protected]
It should work with any roms,
The UI can support from small screens (320x240) to the biggest one (480x840).
Thank you,
See you !
nico.
Congrats
It seems quite nice.
Gonna try!
Thanks!
I've downloaded and tried this app. It definitely works.
What I would like to see is a design that is more sleek. The music player for 2.1 is a good example of what I'm talking about.
post deleted
Looks soo cool & better than stock app.
I like it....would be cool to see some album art and maybe a paid version with no ads
seems like a decent app. the interface is very straigtforward and simple, but integrates well with sense. very cool that it is controllable through the applet (as it seems to to use the stock player for actual playback).
i have one suggestion: the fonts are unneccessary big in the file list, can you make them smaller or user selectable?
good to see more music players on the market, i wrote musicflow....
Looking good so far.
+1 for the album art and the graphics.
I have adfree running so can't see the advertising anyway, something you may want to think about because a lot of people have this program.
If I wanted adware i'd have a windows os
Any screens?
@cyberniko
Looks nice but after installation i started it and it gave me a FC on MCR 3.x ROM, didn't started any just launched app.

nice as i am

...for convinience
cyberniko said:
Do you have the android SDK and avaibility to see the trace of the app ?
My problem is that I plug this app to the music service. This music service has not the same name with htc (because of sense) than in basic android device.
I look the name of the device to choose.
If the name, or the service has changed because of a custom rom, it can be a problem.
Do you have HTC sense on this ROM ?
I will try to look deeper into the device to make this choice... I let you know if I find something.

Can you describe debug proces , never done that before.
I can give you the output of it, maybe it helps.
Tested on hero, works great. It's a really good idea - I'm surprised nobody else thought of it first.
Also, I know this is the wrong part of the forum, but I figured since the dev checks this anyway, and to save time for myself, I'd post here. Tried on N1, force closes when I try pressing buttons.
can't test it for now
but does this app works if i uninstalled the default HTC music player??
@cyberniko,
Don't know what happend but i'm unable to reproduce that FC that i had.
I'll keep you posted.
great job!
Nice. I like this better than the stock
so i test it yesterday, and don't seems to work fo me (i recall that i uninstalled htcMusic.apk )
the app is running but saying that playlist is empty with no way to edit it (or i'm totally blind )

Its in beta stages but I bought it a few hours ago. It works great for downloading from your dropbox account and most uploads have worked very well so far except some .jpg images. First app of its kind for dropbox and I love it well worth the 2 bucks!
This is tempting. I know Dropbox has an official app on the way, but who knows how long that will take!
Is there a big advantage to using Dropbox over, say, Gmail? That's where I tend to stick files I want to get at from anywhere.
Dropbox has an unobtrusive program which you put on your PCs and it automagically keeps the Dropbox folder sync'd on those machines. (Without bogging things down or any effort involved, I might add.) Plus, you get a very nice web UI.
Sharing with other Dropbox users quite easy, and also allows sharing with the world via a public folder. It does some other stuff, too. I really don't see much overlap between Dropbox and Gmail. I love them both.
If anyone wants a referral code for some extra free space on dropbox, feel free to PM me.
This is just a thumbs up for Dropbox.
The Droidbox app works great on my Nexus! Well worth 2.00.
Dropbox is probably one of the best apps I've ever used period. Once installed, it just works. No intervention is required at all, and it really is set and forget software. Once it's running you don't even know it's there. The best!
i didn't find the iPhone app useful at all, but with Android I can see it being much much more useful with the actual ability to properly browse files. I'll wait till the official client though..
Why is`nt anyone mentioning that there`s no thumbnails, a bit useless if you cant see the picture you want, other than that its perfect

Way to bump a year old thread. Have you tried the official Dropbox app?
Well I`m pretty sure I have Dropbox, has the open box, so I take it from what your saying that it does have thumbnails?
Maybe I need an update
No, no thumbnails.
Well for it to be perfect, it does need it other than that I wont be using it, to many pictures...
So this is pretty random and I've done some searches and can't seem to find anything, probably because no one would care enough to do something like this besides me.
The problem: I'm a MS consultant and am tired of hearing **** from my WP7 friends and colleagues.
The ask: Is there a way to mask/disguise/FAKE the OS I have when working with social networking sites? Primarily Facebook for now, you know the "sent via Windows Phone" or "posted by HTC Sense", "Android", etc.
Anyone know how to change/hack/tweek that without changing phones/OS's entirely?
You could just post from their mobile sites and it will say posted from _____ mobile. You can also post from the main site from your phone and it's like posting from your computer.
I know this isn't really what you asked at all, but it will help with your issue.

Caring about being made fun of by windows fanboys for using a linux based phone to me is like caring about being made fun of because you dont huff fumes from an aerosol can. Always annoys me that some group or person can be so blinded to see that there is more than one alternative that works for people and it doesnt always come from the same source
Some applications let you remove that signature or set what it says. However, the easiest solution would be not to use the application and use the browser in the site. If they dont let you set it, then you have to modify the apk or modify the build.conf file in /system (which may or may not mess things up for other applications that depend on that). It's most likely picking up the make/model from that.
If it bothers you that much, you probably need new friends and ignore the coworkers you have to see regardless. Your current ones suck and have drank the koolaid.
Your problem also reminded me of the following penny arcade comic (ignore the phones in question, just the general overtone of the comic is what is related):

I guess I should have clarified. I'd love nothing more than my posts to start saying Windows Phone and seeing their false appreciation and excitement only to see me still rocking my TB with CM once I actually see them.
Was just a question, thought maybe someone else might have had some hack to alter it somehow.

Ah okay, you just want to one up them in a slightly smartass way . Generally as mentioned, it's just a setting in apps you can change, at least for things like email clients, but you probably looked in whatever you are using already.

Yeah, primarily it's the Android Facebook app for statuses and photo uploading. I wouldn't have the slightest idea on where to start in tweeking anything in it. Naturally I think the settings in the app wouldn't allow me to change that.

This is a great idea! Just downloaded, everything seems to work ok, except for videos, they don't seem to load & streaming music files gives me a "Skipping file error", in this case, I just refresh the player & the files start streaming
Looking forward to the 1.0.25 release.

Some video file types aren't compatible, but the majority are. You can just download the ones that wont stream and play them. The "skipping files error" is related to your internet connection. Try using 4G or WiFi if possible. (or a wired connection to the computer) it should help. Were working on the new version so hopefully it will drop soon.
Issue that I have found.
So the one issue that I have found so far is that when I'm just looking through "Files" and I have a pictures file set up. Once I go into that I can see all of my sub folders, then once I enter the sub folder to look at the pictures it just times out and says that my computer at home that is hosting the files must not be online. This only happens when on 4g, if on wifi then I can pull up the pictures and scroll through them pretty much like I'm in the gallery of my phone. Also have video issues but I'm pretty sure that is related to the file types that I have, everything works GREAT if I use my laptop at work and go through the browser. This is a great app and program. Thanks for this.

Happy to share. I too have noticed a few minor bugs but for the most part it works great. There is a new version out that Dodava is in the process of patching to work on our phones (much harder then it sounds) and I believe it includes several bug fixes.

One of the most anticipated app for android from microsoft is here
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.microsoft.office.onenote
Gag /10char gag
shows as incompatible for the n7000 =(
Installed from the market just fine for me. I used the web market, YMMV. FYI, I'm in U.S. on Criskelo v6.
Thanks for the heads up. You need a Windows Live ID to use it, but I do have some work shared One Note files that would be nice to use on the mobile. I find it a rather odd move for MS, considering that ( the built in office integration) would be the ONLY selling point I mention to my clients when they discuss purchasing a Windows 7 Phone...
Does not support sketching on notes.
Any feedback on its comparative analysis with Evernote?

Bah. The is really too little too late from MS. I'm still looking for that perfect cloud synced app. I use SMemo a lot, but also lose pages every now and again when I flash / crash / nandroid.
Doesn't even support viewing ink from the PC version of onenote. This happened with the office web apps when they first came out, but they eventually updated them to support the viewing of ink. Hopefully this will all come in time. I'm glad that Microsoft realized that android is a real platform that isn't going away and that they are putting some effort into development now. If they can make it usable enough such that I use my 500 note limit I will gladly pay the fee. For now it's their challenge to develop that usability.

I noticed this, not able to view files made on tablet pc. Probably 50% of my notes are in ink.
How do you highlight text and choose fonts, and seems very basic?
I agree . Very disappointed with what MS has come out with
missing so many features
- Does not show handwritten notes.
- Notes made only go to personal web folder and not in the folder that i make a new one
- Selecting fonts and stuff like that are missing
- cannot add files
- no handwritten notes possible.
and many many more.
