Hey everyone,
I'm currently in my final year at uni, and part of the course is a project where I basically have a develop a piece of software. My choice was an Android shopping price comparison application ala ShopSavvy.
You may ask why I decided to create an application, which a working version already exists. Firstly I did this for the technical challenge, and didn't really think I'd be releasing this publically. I've decided though that there is a good chance that I'll release this. Second is that my application has an added feature which allows users to contribute to the database!
Currently it has nearly all the features that ShopSavvy has including searching, barcode scanning and price alerts. I've tried to keep the UI standard Android as much as possible, and I think it runs a bit quicker than ShopSavvy. Currently it's UK and US only, but I plan to make it more global friendly as soon as possible. It's also Donut (1.6) or newer due to me using some Donut only features (Search mainly).
BETA Released!
I've released a beta onto Android Market. At the moment, it's only available in the UK and US but will be available for more countries soon.
QRcode for Market Link:

One thing I would like to feedback on the application. Just general stuff really but focusing on:
Users of HDPI devices (Droid, Nexus One, etc) on how the layout looks
General bugs (FCs, ANRs)
If you'd like to give feedback on the beta. Please do so on the following link, it's only a very short form:

Thanks

I go to Aston university Mainly just using the thing and reporting back with feedback, nothing special.
id be happy to beta test it.
The name sucks : Just saying...
I really like the UI. I can beta test too, I have a N1.
Looks nice, I like how it shows nearby shops on the map. Radius would be IMO better in the form of slider rather than drop down list. It would be also useful if it could tell me opening times.
Beta Released! See the original post!!!
It looks good enough in the Nexus one. Good work
Just uploaded version 0.1.2b onto the Market. Now works in the US as well (hopefully anyway lol)
Just uploaded v0.2.0 onto the Market. Mainly bugfixes but also a small help system.

QBot v1.002
QBot is an application designed to solve the Rubiks Cube, exclusively for Android Mobile Devices.
It can with impressive speed, calculate the solution by simply taking a photograph of each face.
The ‘Color Recognition System’ incorporated within the QBot, along with amazing precision can recognize all the faces of each photograph thanks to a complex algorithm.

Nice vid, thats pretty cool!
Any thoughts on adding a virtual cube you can watch being solved on the screen? (Visual instructions more so than textual instructions)
We are aware that the text instructions can be a bit complicated to follow and we are working on a solution that will simplify this.
Very cool app. Loving the camera mode. I've had a messed up rubiks cube for years that I haven't solved, never got the hang of the instructions!
+1 for a graphical/simpler solution though, would definitely help with mass appeal!
Subscribed! This is awesome!
this is too amazing!!
question about your app
Very cool app.
very cool, when can we see a beta release?
Why not learn how to solve one for yourself? It's not actually that hard.
www.speedcubing.com
How goes the development? Ready for any beta testers yet?
would love to beta test this
We are sorry that we had to push the release date forward but we are working really hard to get everything working as smooth as possible until the beta release.
Also we are now looking for beta testers so if you are interested please send a mail to [email protected] with you full name as well as what type of android phone(s) you own.
applied!
Hello my friend.
I saw your video in Youtube, and I believe is too hard for someone to use your app because it uses word directions. I think you must take a look to CubeCheater, which is a Rubik's Cube Solver for iPhone.
Search to the youtube for "CubeCheater iPhone"
Yes, we are aware of that. But remember that this video is an early alpha version. We are working on a 3d animation of the solution right now, therefore the delay on the release.
Ok then, I am waitting your first release, and I can be a beta tester if you want, I have a HTC Desire.
How to become a Beta tester? because i want te be a tester, i got a nexus one.
got the Cube in my hand right now
--edit--
Email sended for beta testing.
Really cool app. Thumbs up
The registration period for a QBot Android Client beta key is now to an end, I would like to thank all of you for the huge interest you have all showed in this beta release. If you did not get a mail back I am afraid you did not get an beta key. For all of you who did receive an email, congrats! we will begin to send out the first build within a few days.
Hello!
A colleague (d4rkb1t) and I have been working hard for quite some time to bring you this and I hope you enjoy it as much as we liked it (although missing a lot of work still to do, but why are the first to to test the application.)
This application will bring you a different way of reading the news. Not in terms of viewing, if not how to obtain them. And counting will go but we have designed this application in mind the following premises:
* Do not eat much 3g
* Results fully customized
* Make it quick to learn and use
* I wish you the news of your newspapers and / or favorite Web pages in hand.
First of all and most importantly to warn you that this is a beta version and we hope all the world's help to list the bugs you may encounter. We need your feedback much as we want to make the application as perfect as possible .... and we need all the help possible.
On the other hand, I appreciate a lot if you send us your favorite newspaper or website to see if we can fix it directly to the button that you have set the options, and so will this bigger.

This looks nice I'll be sure to give it a try in the morning
thanks
Remember that we need A LOT of feedback. Things like:
* Bugs (this is the most important and we are sure that there are some of them)
* ForceClose (and how to recreate it)
* Usability tests and your opinion about that (did you see the TimeLine?, or the ReadLater tab?, was it difficult to see them?)
* How could we improve the app and its look&feel
* Newspapers or webpages that you want to read in Rtimenews.
* General opinion about the app.
We are working hard to release the final version asap, and we would love hear you, and your opinions and feedback.
Thanks!
It installed, asked me for country- I selected Brazil thinking I'd be able to choose more than one to get news from, it went to the next option and I pressed back to chose USA. It force closed and now it fc every time I try to start it.
Cm6 RC 2 running dumfuq kernel.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Re-installed. Love the idea. Two things I'd like to suggest :
Make a widget, would love for this app to be one of my screens.
Make the icons that pop when you choose a news a bit bigger, so people wont press the wrong one by accident.
Cheers!!!!
Thanks!!

I was chosen to do a survey of two different versions of the new Vlingo app, so I got some screenshots. Wondered what you guys think of the new version of the app that will soon be released in a month or so..
Version 1:

}
Version 2:
I love the new interfaces, not sure which version they will go with. That's the reason they wanted us to give feedback. I love the humor of the "way too loud" screen.
And no I will not share an APK, so please don't ask. I'm under very strict rules. Sorry guys. Which I could.
This much nicer than the old one.
I would love to try this.
looks a lot better
I think version 1 looks the best from a ui standpoint. Interested to see how the new release works
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Looks really great - though would love to see a dark theme. Also hoping they've incorporated new features such as the equilavent of google's "listen to". Vlingo tends to be more accurate I've found.
I can't make up my mind over which version I prefer - both look great.
the UI looks beautiful, any ETA?
Version 1 for me.
Version 2's UI reminds me of the Edwin interface.
Personally i am happy with any UI... cuz i just HOLD the search key to run Vlingo... just curious about the features...
so in this new version, it seems you have more options as to what you can tell vlingo to do...
is this correct?
can you maybe list some features?

Yep. Through voice commands it can post facebook and twitter statuses (possibly other social services down the road.. who knows), it can send sms, emails, and can make phone calls, open up google searches, it can open up google maps and navigation with specific addresses and such (eg. "Navigate to 1313 Mockingbird Lane"), and it can open other applications.
As for the ETA, not completely sure. Could be another month or more.
excellent apps have been using it lately.
Like the 1st version but would prefer a darker theme as vlingo is most used app on my phone.
Version 1.
Love to have a widget that is customizable (transparent background, different colors, layouts, etc.)
niiiiiice....,
I prefer version 1. However both do look a lot cleaner then the current version.

Hey everyone,
The beta of FriendCaster for Android for Tablets is now available on the Android Market!
Get it here!
It looks good to me. I've applied.
Applied fro the beta! Looks great from the screenshot. I have a TF-101.
Hi... with all due respect... what is the difference between this and the latest Friend Me? Looks very similar. Although Friend Me is not perfect.
I think the bar on the left would be better displayed as a horizontal bar at the top or bottom. But it looks quite nice.
I don't have a tablet at the moment, but I bought FriendCaster Pro for the phone. Makes Facebook bearable on Android.

Looks EXACTLY like Friend Me! I think the developers should concentrate on the regular app first...it is VERY buggy since Handmark took over!
Applied to the private beta. Can't wait to try it out.
The first alpha is out. You can get it by registering at the Google Group link in the OP ;-)
Alpha 2 is out. Get it from the same place as before.
The beta of FriendCaster for Android for Tablets is now available on the Android Market!

Bah, only for HC 3, seems that others tablets doesn't exist. I hate Android. That was my worst mistake. I will never buy anything related with android.
Would like to know when this app will be available for purchase. Have Friendcaster pro for my Galaxy Tab 7" and love it. The issue I am having with Friendcaster Tab is the refresh intervals. Would love to have it set to 1, 2 or even 5 minutes but I keep getting a popup telling me I have to buy Pro. A time frame would be really helpful. Love this much more than Friend Me but I use them more often because I get sooner notification updates.
v3.11.1 RC for Tabs
Hey everyone,
We've just released our release candidate onto our Google Group. This release will be released as an update to the current Phone Listing (meaning if you've got the Pro version, you'll get a Pro version of the Tablet app). It also includes a new Scrollable Widget and Portrait Improvements.
Get it Here!
It opens me to the internet version?
What is status on this? The beta tester application does not work.
The current version really wastes screen space on a kindle fire.
:good: was waiting for for it.

Measures time spent on each app. See which apps to uninstall because you're not using them!
The most accurate app usage tracker! Accurate to less than a second on Android 1.6 and up.
Main features:
* Free (for now)
* Shows app usage by time or number of launches.
* See usage for today, the last week, the last month, or since installing.
* Click on apps for more information, like first launch, install date, etc.
* Uses virtually no battery power- only records when you change apps, unlike others which check every x seconds!
See how much time you're wasting on Angry Birds or Facebook!
Great app. It is an app that should have been present on Gingerbread by default.
Hey chaitanya91845, thanks for your download, really glad you liked it. If you have any suggestions, please let us know
Quick update:
Added default icon for apps with no icon. 1.3 had this for new users; 1.3.2 fixes it for upgrading users.
When I go to the market, I get this error "Your device is not compatible with this item"...
I'm using galaxy ace with cm 7.1....
Same message with my HTC desire.
Works on my HTC Evo...
Same here not compatible with my Samsung Galaxy S i9000T. I wonder for what devices it will work.
thank you testing it now.
Hi adiles, kostelo, claus1953,
Thanks for the feedback.
This seems to be an incompatibility with recent versions of CM. We've changed some settings on our official Android Market account; hopefully that fixes it. Can you please try again?
If that doesn't work you should be able to install it from slideme: http://slideme.org/application/appusage
Please let us know how you go

Thanks, download from the market worket now.
Great app... but I'm less than impressed by the recent update that forces users to add their gender and age.
Hey zmattmanz. Glad you like the app. It should have only asked you about your gender and age once... that has always been present, not as part of an update. Did it ask twice?
If you're concerned about your privacy, don't worry. We're pretty sure it's not possible to personally identify you. No one will contact you. It's more anonymous than the top search engines!

Cool! Thanks for letting us know
Update: We released a pro add-on that opts you out of the data screen. Keep in mind that the non-pro version collects NON-IDENTIFIABLE information. In other words, this is more anonymous than using google. But as requested, we released a pro add-on version to suit some customers at a very reasonable price. We are currently working on new features for both versions, but the pro will have some extra add-ons. Thanks for all the replies and email, we take your feedback very seriously.
