Hi everyone,
I have a question, maybe a suggestion: I'm looking for software that helps in changing habits. Let me make on example: suppose your doctor told you to change your posture... you try to do it but after five minute you forget it and get back to your old habit. I bet everyone can come up with some personal examples were this would be useful (from learning lucid dreaming to.. I don't know.. acting friendlier.. )
I am looking for a software that simply lets my pocketpc vibrate in my pocket at random intervals. That's about all. The vibration would remind me to change the habit and no one else would notice.
Is there some software that might be used to do this? I actively searched for it but could not find anything remotely close. Some calendar app with some settings for random alerts?
Maybe you know some software that might accomplish this task... I bet other people would find this useful as well!!
Thanks, Slist

You could try searching for it yourself next time, just for the sheer hell of it.
if you will respond to a thread with that comments don't waste time and don't do it
hackmania: captainsensible2002 is absolutely right. Use the bloody search and save us all some time.
I think the response from Captainsensible was perfect. He advised you to search and he gave you the links, since you are too lazy to do any work on your own. Why would you have a problem with that??
thanks for all help and sorry for my response
I created a feature request for Google for a custom auto correction feature, which I think will go a long way in improving upon the stock Gingerbread keyboard.
Please visit the link and star it if you'd like to see this feature added in a future update. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14420
Thanks.
I think the keyboard will only get better with future releases. Google recently brought a company called blindtype, so hopefully they will implement it in their keyboard soon.
Anyway, I stared it stock keyboard is kinda bad!!
Ummm ... Doesn't Gingerbread have custom auto-completion? If I type a new word, then click on it, it says to click on it again to add it, then when I type that word, it comes up in the list of auto-completes. Or did I misunderstand what you are trying to achieve?

I starred it, but as soon as my email box starts flooding with all the idiotic "yeah, you google jerks fix this or I'll return my phone" comments that these starred reports tend to attract, I'll be un-starring it.
PLEASE people, only comment on starred reports, be they bug or enhancement requests if your comment actually adds value to the concept or bug report, such as additional steps to reproduce a problem on a bug, or an idea of how to improve the enhancement request. All the other stuff just spams people's mailbox and ticks them off.

I believe he's trying to achieve a way for us to EDIT or IMPORT the autocorrection list. With a feature like that, we could move our autocorrects from phone to phone, or better yet, they could be synced to the Google cloud with all the rest of our personalizations. As it stands now, wipe/reset your phone, and your keyboard has to re-learn all your habits/words.
BTW - I've found that whenever people start their post with "ummm..." it's taking as some kind of snarky put down of the person they're responding to. I've had perfectly innocent posts replied to with name-calling and insults over that.

Thanks for the tip/warning. I usually mean ummm to mean, "I'm confused by what you say" and not a snarky put down of the person. I think I understand what he's trying to achieve now and it makes sense to be able to transfer the custom list. Under Language in settings, you can view your list and add or delete words, but that's it. I don't think it would be too hard to add and Import and Export button to it at the very least.
Cheers.

I hear you on the "ummm", it's what I mean too, but it seems to upset people.
Now that's a good tip about going to language settings...I did not know that, but I don't really use stock keyboard, I use SwiftKey almost exclusively, and I believe it puts your auto-correct stuff on the sdcard, so they stick between roms/resets, and you could even move to a new phone.
edit: actually, looking at that Settings user dictionary, is that just user defined words, or actual autocorrects, or does the system use some kind of algorithm to compare what you're typing against those words?
It would be tedious if you have a lot of words, but you could always copy/paste your custom word list into that feature with a pre-saved text file listing them.
Thanks for starring, folks. I agree, I hope people don't get carried away by responding with their every two cents, which ends up just spamming mailboxes.
As for what I mean by custom auto corrections, if anyone is using or have used Smart Keyboard Pro, they'll know what I mean. Basically, you get to edit and choose what specific words you want to be auto corrected to what. For example, if you're prone to typing "km" instead of "I'm" you can create a custom auto correction to make km=I'm. That way, anytime you type "km" by accident, it'll automatically switch it to "I'm."
Another example, "tmr=tomorrow" or "idk=I don't know." You can do this on Smart Keyboard Pro and it's one of the best features in making the typing experience easier.
Bump. This got moved from General to Q&A and got lost in the shuffle. Please visit the link and star the request if you wish to see Custom Auto Corrections implemented by Google. I think it'll enhance greatly the typing experience.
Thanks.

I ended up just blocking the address they send notifications with. All I do is star genuine bugs. It's not like anything helpful ever goes up for those anyway; when it's fixed, it's fixed, and if someone really cares, they'll know it.

I actually use a gmail filter to just archive the things and keep them out of my inbox, then every now and then scroll through to see if anything interesting.
I agree, that code site is pretty much just useless.
The Google Help Forums, though, tend to get a lot of Google employee attention.

One of the problems I have with today's texting apps is that they are all essentially the same. Sure emoticons and group conversations are fun, but there is limited flexibility with what you can and can not do. For example, why can't we customize text layouts, embed youtube videos into our conversations, etc.
I came up with a solution by creating a basic, elementary texting app without any of the perks. What I want to do is get as much feed back as possible to build out the texting app that people want to use. Once users see that we take their ideas and implement them into the app, they will be more excited to share it with their friends.
So if anyone is interested in creating their own app, download Skoop Messenger in google play and let me know what you think. Check out the Skoop Messenger Facebook page for details.
Not sure I understand what you are proposing
that isn't already handled by email and/or IM?
looks a lot like the other sms/text apps out there already. not sure whats different.
There's a very good reason that they're all essentially the same and that's because of the age old saying -
If it's not broke, don't fix it!

With generic things like texting, the majority of people don't like change. Texting on phones is nice and simple and if too many features are added, texting will become much harder work than it needs to be.

I would like to see a talk to text app that actually works good, with the option to talk letters instead of words, another option would be like Xbox 360 where you can leave a voice message or video message, all in the same app, Maybe a way to customize and use a graphic signature instead of a text signature. Changing font of texts or colors, stuff like that I can see being used. Maybe having some music in the background when you are reading or have a text message open. A translater built in to the app, so if someone sends you a message in Chinese, you can press a button and the text then converts in english. Just throwing some ideas out there.
I don't buy into that " if it a broke dont fix it" Where would we be today if we did not constantly look to improve things? Probably in a cave beating each other over the heads with clubs and worshipping fire. This thread was started becuase someone asked for ideas on improving text messaging and all the responses have been anti-productive. Use your imagination people.

Mine wasn't anti-productive. It was truthful.
Off-topic - Even if we were still cave people, would that really be a problem? Of course not, because we'd be used to that. Yeah, mankind strides to improve things, but at lot of the time, the situation with this thread included, it's not needed.

Relax guys.
I have to agree with both. If it's not broken in any way, why fix it - it might cause problems there weren't there in the first place. The main reason something is popiular is because it works. But then again, there's always room for improvement/innovation, right? I mean, that's how we got our devices now.
On topic: i can't find the app.
Sorry for butting in. It's just my opinion.

PLEASE IMPROVE THE DSP MANAGER
other issues unknown atm
CM has a bug tracker on their website. They don't spend much time here...
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
I'd hate to sound like an ass, but stop posting useless threads.
I'm on this forum everyday and I see a new thread every week from you regarding a topic that's already been covered, or an unnecessary thread all together.
Keep in mind I'm not trying to be mean. These are facts.
Yes, there is a bug tracker, if you've read the OP in the CM thread (clearly you haven't)
And almost all of those problems you listed (apart from DSP manager) seem like your problems only. I have never experienced any of the other problems you mentioned, nor have I seen them mentioned by others
And if you want to improve dsp flash awesome beats from the mirror thread
sorry about that gtmaster lately i've been out of the blue and not snapped out about it but ill keep focus my apologies
well i reported the bug so thanks everyone i wont be a pain anymore just gonna start figuring stuff myself for now on
