i'm just curious if someone has or could make an app that can make a phone like the htc pro act like a white noise machine. all it would have to do is loop some peaceful sounds like the ocean or whatever and have a button to toggle the screen off. this would be great for me, but i dont know the first thing about developing, so i'm looking for a little help, thanks
why not just get a sound sample you like and run it in the media player- the center of he dpad (go to setting to change it) in windows media player can toggle the screen on/off while continuing to play in the background.
thats a good idea, but i just found a program called pocket Oscillator that is supposed to create a kind of white noise so ill just try that. its an older program, but should still work to some degree.
I could try to find a sample of Ice, Ice Baby for you, would that help?

Check this out... http://techdigest.tv/2007/02/watch_the_iphon.html The working slide lock and scrolling mp3 library is cool. Wouldn't mind getting ahold of that software.
oh my god
how do you do the unlock scroll button. i cant figure it out
iphone who what where........haha this is great. oh this gonna be great if they perfect that scrolling feature.
I just want the locker...
how do we do this. and how to get the slide to work. enlighten us or me.
im using the meizu theme which is better that the iphone theme. the wishbar skin is very accurate with the signal strength plus it kicks ass on my 8525
No idea how he did either one. Perhaps it's flash based.
Slider lock
Guys,
He's using something called,
PPL1.20. PPL can be downloaded for free from http://arianesoft.ca
I installed this, but have no clue on how to use it!!!

Any help here?
The video demo is really impressive...
I hope he'l sheare his develpment
To be honest I dont find faking the iPhone very exciting. However many concept in the interface are worth having (Like the sliding lock, the big icons "a la" claunch, etc...
What would be great is use what he developped and then configure our own icons, background, etc... That do not have to be Apple's one (Yes Apple's oens look good but sooner or later we'll get tired of them...)
Kind of a way to have the best of both worlds
+1 that theme is unreal.

It requires programming skills
Basically if what the video shows is tue he did quite a good programming job there (Actually PPL seems ike an interesting tool)
slider
OK,
Anyone willing to try reverse engineering an actual slider lock with this program mentioned above?
hell if i can emulate the iphone on my 8525 why get the iphone. oh 4gb memory, 4gb memory cards are already out. remember we can add third party apps.
but hey its still a hot phone. but check out the meizu iphone copy lol.
i know i can get the iphone for $350 when it comes out though.

That would defiantly be cool. I would even host the download on our web servers to avoid issues...
hey send to me if someone makes it. i dont mind being a guinea pig.
i have a wizard and the hermes
Ouch
The account of the guy has been suspended...
I guess that the host doesnt want troubles with Apple (+ probably he had a huge bandwith consumption...)
Obviously it's "programmable" and he seems to have it done pertty nicely
The whole point now is to have him share his development (Too much work to start this from scratch...)
His site is back up
However he is staying mute... No answer on his blog when you post a message..

hey people! here is the new updated slider!
it supports:
* Lock the Pocket PC keyboard inputs - NEW!
* fullscreen without taskbar
* 12 hour support (like “10:22 AM”) - FIXED
* highlighting “slide to unlock” text
* english dates (like “saturday, march 14″)
* error sound plays when tapping anywhere except slider button
* opening sound plays when slider align to right (3 second)
i’m trying to get load external image to background.. it works in flash test file but it not works after the compiled exe file..
post em'. new ideas guys, let me hear it..
I've been rather inactive on the forums lately (life is catching up with me ), and reading through a hundred extra pages doesn't seem logically fathomable for me to do.
A contacts app that matches the dialer app on the H build would be nice. But as far as usefull i cant think of anything right now.
The ability to shoot lasers.
well i upgraded myself from touchpro to g1 and one thing that i really miss is Flash player support and equalizers in music player.
guys pls do them. and i think that my voice will be echoed by many.
hoping that we will beat iphone iconic status one day as this plateform as enormous poential
thanks
I would really like widgets ...Weather Stocks...and such
any feature we want? how about if we tap the edge of the screen, a little virticle bar comes up on the side of the screen where we can control volume, and maybe on the other side of the screen, a bar to adjust the brightness. would be convenient, but there are volume buttons on the side of the phone lol, but still, some apps don't change the appropriate volume.
how about a seem edit to make the phone a little louder? i'm sure that it can get much louder. i dont know how throughly you can edit these builds.
will add stuff later.
Multitouch!
I second that.... multi-touch, at least in browser, hopefully in maps as well.
Umm H build is perfect lol, but umm adding the multitouch code to the browser wont hurt.

THIS IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN UNTIL ADOBE RELEASES SOMETHING. I don't think haykuro is offering to make new programs for you. Don't be stupid. He's asking you what he can do to the builds to make them better. For an example, like somebody mentioned a GOOD IDEA and SOMETHING HE CAN DO: MULTITOUCH. Because he can modify a few files and somebody has already done it in a previous build, thus he can do it in this build. Correct me if I'm wrong. My heck people, enough whining for things like Flash Players. Don't you think that if it was so easy to do, it would have been done before? Haven't you morons figured out that having a GOOGLE phone, you could simply use GOOGLE for searching? Wow, that's a crazy idea, right? Using Google? Half you numbskulls could find what you're actually complaining about if you used it.
If you loved your HTC Pro blah blah blah whatever the crap it was, use that phone and stop complaining and asking for things that aren't going to happen until Adobe comes out with it. Go bug Adobe for it. Or Google. No developer is going to do it for you.
use the HTC VK as the default
focus on fixing the background noise during calls
multitouch would be awesome
i will update with more later...
@ankjain
Boy... I would like Flash too... lets hope Adobe pulls through with it's promise
this is a for fix for an issue I have not found elsewhere.
I have noticed with Bluetooth enabled listening to my A2DP headset (Plantronics A590)although the buttons on the headset work, they automatically start up the default music app when pressed... even if I am using another app.... So currently I am forced to use either the default music app, or use the controls on the phone not the headset.
Some sort of built in setting (like in open home or DXtop) to be able to select from multiple themes and icon sets and the ability to hide them in the drawer like open home.
an app switcher that can be re-located to the bar like in the app bar-control or can be used with a button combo.
Thanks for all of your hard work, I am very satisfied being able to use build currently... fixes are always welcome and improvements are a bonus
Bring back some how the
"Myfavs"
Zoom on browser
More widgets.
try fixing the quality of the pictures displayed when receiving a call... they are very pixelated
I have been searching for a stroboscope program, and the only ones i found were just a simple torches or simple blinking stroboscope. So i thought maybe someone has time to make a program in which you could enter a frequency at which you want a led to blink, and it would be a great tool for many experiments. Sorry for my poor english.
Good idea, I wonder that nobody has taken it up.
........... and whoever is going to build this app should integrate this strobo function into the video camera function because ther it makes most sense.
There is an app on android called TeslaLed, i have tried it on my hd2, works great. But u cant enter a specific frequency, just adjust how fast it blinks.
is it possible to use the camera flash as a strobe-light, and create an application which could leave the camera lense open. this would create an effect of multiple frames in one picture.. either development would make a really cool camera app for some nice effects, but sounds a bit technicle, dont now.
I am thinking of installing an Android tablet into my car as a carpc. Android is not very vehicle (minimal attention) friendly so an app maybe a home screen type application could solve this.
I have an idea of what it could look like nothing to complex. I attached a mock up. The buttons on the right can be bigger or more of them and can be customizable (auto call text playlist) the volume on the right could be a stage up down (more clicks the louder long press for mute) or slider whichever. Perhaps digital OBD II gauges could be added as well if screen size is big enough.
Haptic feed back and definitive clicks sounds should be optional so you know you have hit a key.
The wall paper behind everything should be customizable maybe visualizer or album art users choice.
I think simple gesture could be implemented as well slide for new song up or down for voice activities (voice search or vlingo) I'd have no idea what to do on the programing side, but I could learn and help.
Any ideas or volunteers leave a comment if this is done I'll delete but I could not see such an app not that I knew what to search for. this could be quite popular in the CarPC forums if it has not been done before. Market wise ad supported with a one time payment pro version (2-5$) would probably have best sales. (I just want the app take the idea nothing expected here, except maybe I get it free ;-). I'll help test)
bump it up
Android Car Dock available in 2.2+
Its a stock app
Not quite what I'm looking for all that is is short cuts to non mobile friendly apps. It also doesn't look as seamless as a single solution would.
Try Desktop Visulizer, it can create as big icons as you want, selecting custom images.
A new home screen and widgets seem to be the best choice at this point. "Where I'm at" widget is great for the maps part and a volume up down widget works great for volume. I haven't found a reliable media mute widget tho. Just about any music player has a mobile friendly widget.
A voice command app that pauses music correctly would really help though lol.
I'm interested send me a pm with more info and ill look into it

it is possible to have a map view in the middle of the application but not a navigation view as it is not documented by the api and simple odb2 data is easy its just serial data but not being able to ingrate navigation posses a problem
I was talking to the developer of "Where I'm At" and he said he would look into it. Could an alternative GPS app be used or even a 2x1 widget with next turn direction. Sounds like the best bet would be a new app with everything built in already. That would take away from customization of different music apps unless an option was coded in.

Only if it was open source because most navigation apps are paid and it is against the terms of service to use

This is inspired by robo4130 geeky way of professing his love for his soon to be wife. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771509
I thought about making an application that does a similar thing, without having to bother about a LWP. Gratz btw robo.
The app has most of the functionality I was going for, but the UI needs a huge revamp.
Current features :
- Add a name to the message
- Add up to four lines showcasing your love
-- Each line is separately added
- Add a personalised message
--Default is 'Will you marry me?' , but this can be changed to 'Will you go out with me?' etc
- Option to add a personalised background
- Set the app to display your message on application startup
If you guys like it, I could add in sounds and UI changes and some wallpapers included in app.
I have narrowed down most bugs, but if you find any, please post here.
I tried to it out on my samsung infuse running cm9. It works well. If i understand the concept a person goes in beforehand and sets it up with their words. Then when you are ready to show it you start the app then press start and the words appear on the screen?
I understand its a basic start but its a good start you have going. I would definitely like to see some ui enhancements and some sound. Maybe even let you pick a chopped mp3 sound. Or include a couple premade sounds that are timed with when the words appear on the screen. And a live wallpaper effect for a background would be neat too.
I did notice that it displayed the text in the upper left part of my screen. Any way to get it centered in the middle?
Good luck and thanks.

Thanks very much.
I will try to make the UI look nicer Inshallah.
Main problem might be sounds. Firstly, I am not experienced with SFX and I have just a faint idea of where to find them copyright free. I found a neat website but I am not sure if it will have the sounds that I'm looking for. I wil probably use specific tracks and not unique effects because they are easier to find.
If anyone has any that I can add, it would be much appreciated.
Secondly, timing I think is crucial. I will try to make it spot on. I would love to hear/see a lovey-dovey song playing in the background while a dude sits on his knees and hands his (soon to be) wife an Android phone with those 4 magic words displayed on the surface
Regarding the text placement.
That is just temporary. So many times before I have made an app and have thought of posting but have always given up due to laziness and my short attention span.
I nearly went to sleep mid way so decided to post as is.
I hope to have 2 options. One. display in the middle. Two. Display it diagonally.
I could also make option to add hearts, roses, chocolates etc. Anything that raises the odds of getting the right answer
