[APP REQ] Formula 1 Live Timing

The new 2009 formula 1 season is on its way and it would be nice to be able to follow a race on our phones. So far i have only seen a java application that does this job but the resolution is far too small
(Live Yamigo - check it out here http://live.yamigo.com/F1Servlet/)
I have no idea about developing so, does any developer want to develop this for us? I'd gladly assist in the graphics work.
Functions:
Live timing
Lap chart
Comentaries Feed
Weather Screen
vga res & other
Im sure there are much more people interested in such an application.

You are right, I'm interested!
Sorry I can't develop it, though..

Please post questions and/or requests in the Questions and Answers section of the forum. This thread will probably be moved to that section. Thanks.

I'm interested too...
But before starting a dev, we need to know where to find datas... I don't know websites that send such informations...

Do you mean the live timing? If so you can get it free from http://www.formula1.com. This uses a java applet to show lap times etc, I also have this on when im watching the live qualifying/race.

yes live timing..i also tried that on my touch pro but its very small resolution and it only takes up a small portion of the screen..making it extremely hard to read..id love to see this developed for vga too...

Hi guys,
I've just tested the service, and it works well. But as already said, its so small resolution.
I've downloaded the LARGE version (http://live.yamigo.com/F1Servlet/dl/), even that is small for my HTC Touch Diamond. Its probably 320x240.
Anyway its the only way to have the F1 Live Timing. Thanks for the intel.

The large version works fine on my HTC Advantage X7500. But then I didn't install any high res applications. So perhaps that's why the application displays larger on my device. It's reasonably close to full screen.
I do keep getting internet connection security dialogs (need to click yes everytime it downloads a bit of data). Is there a wat to prevent that? Can I mark the application as trusted or something?

You would need to upgrade the JAVA version on your phone if you have a wm 6.1/6.5. If you have a version of WM prior to that then I am afraid that you will just have to keep clicking on connection dialog iirc.
I will ask a couple of lads at work to see what they can do (if they can be bothered that is) as I work as IT support for a JAVA house that specialises in connected apps and I know quite a few of the developers like F1

I've got the "intent Midlet Manager" version 11.1.7.1036 on it. I think that's the most recent version.
I've found a workaround though. I wrote the yamigo developers and they indicated that I should get only 2 dialogs. Then I found that indeed I got only 2 and it kept stable after that. Then I switched apps and the dialogs returned.
Seems like it only works when I have my internet connection closed before I open the java midlet and then let the midlet connect.
Weird, but it works.

I once decompiled the original F1 live timing application. Not sure if it's still that easy, but I could read the source for the entire java application. I used that to work out the live datastream. Never got around to writing the WM app that I planned though.

Here a screenshot from the application working on my device:

Last summer I made live-f1 version that works somehow in HTC hermes running WM6.0 (HTC original). It is based on the live-f1 program source code that works in linux xterm. It has WM gui (without any touch specific features). Features include only timing data, fastest lap, and comments. Timing screen is scrolled with arrow keys.
I was thinking about delayed timing feature next, but due to FIA favoring double diffuser Teams, I have not had motivation to make that part.

Open Source live timing library written in .NET
If anyone is interested, I've written a library - Open Source in C# - to receive the live timing data from the server used by the official live timing app. Obviously it's reverse engineered, so I haven't yet done all of the data. However the interesting stuff is done (i.e. not the weather info).
Note: It's currently targeted at the desktop .NET framework, but shouldn't take much effort to port it to the compact framework if any one is interested.
So..if anyone would like to develop some app's I've also included some existing recorded data that can be 'played' back using the library's simulator component so you won't have to wait for an actual race event to see if your app works.
It can be found here Live Timing Home Page (http://livetiming.turnitin.co.uk)
Thanks,
Liam.
p.s. If you'd like to contribute your app's and or code to the project, let me know and I'll add you in.

I have just looked on the website of post #1 and this is still 2009. I was wondering waht offerings are there for Formual 1 for 2010 for the HD2.

Same here, trying to figure out a way to have live timing on my HD2

Official app soon available? http://www.formula1.com/mobile_services/live_timing.html

Heres the official jad file. Its for the HD and i cant get it to work on my Diamond 2, so cant let you know if it works or not.

works on first run, causes error on second launch, have to re-install!!
It's now not on the f1 website again, I guess they realise there is an issue with it and are trying to fix it?
I'm still laughing at those with an iphone who have to pay £20 for the official app and we get it for free!!

I've downloaded the "HTC HD2" version, and it isn't working at all with jbed:
E: 2java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
But, with jblend works
They have been putting it on the web and removing it since yesterday... a little bit more testing wasn't been that bad
Edit: I forget to mention that, even it's working with jblend... i cannot sign-in with my email/password... i've been forced to "Try" the application

What phone, what java version?
I am unable to run it on Diamond using JBed. Anybody succeeded with this. If yes, what midlet manager is able to run this applet? Thanks.

Watch your money, my app to make you save money :)

Hey members of XDA-DEVELOPERS!
Let me introduce my app.
What's this app for ?
This APP allow you to keep an eye on your incomes/outcomes and so you'll keep an eye on your current balance (not REAL balance but ESTIMATED balance).
As everyone knows, when you pay something, it's not directly debited on your account, and thats why you can easily go under the "0" threshold.
With this app, no need to worry, just check the notification which tells you how much is 'normaly' left on your account !
An account app ? Again ?
Well, yes but I made this one to be CLEAR, PRECISE and CONCISE !
Nothing not usefull will be or has been added.
And plus ! Since I'm still developping it, propose stuff and it'll be added !
That's a great oppotunity, forge your own desire onto the application !
Help me develop it, show me what people can do when thinking together !
What does it looks like ?
Check out on the market, or wait a few for me to upload some screens
On what does it run ?
Millestone 2.1,
Nexus 1 in 2.1,
Hero with beHero 2.1,
Liquid in 2.1
and Legend 2.1 at the moment.
Still, the app is compatible with all device from 1.6 to 2.1.
A big amount of features are comming soon :
- Notification icon color change on a thrshold,
- Multi account,
- Widget,
- Data export for PC based view with Excell,
- Compatibility with the android calendar (?!)
- AND MORE !
Submit your idea, let me develop your envy !!!
Where do I find this ?
"Watch your money" on the market.
Let me improve your lifestyle ! Try, adopt, submit idea !
Stay clear, stay cool ! Save money
Thanks !

Donate version :

place apk here, plz. wanna test. is it freeware or...?

Yes it is a freeware, although a donate version exist as well.
I'll try to upload the apk somwhere, but you should be able to get it on the market

at least place qr code here, market search for tattoo is quite useless

Tested for a couple of minutes. Too poor functionality. Only one account (cash, I suppose), only one currency. Look at Financisto app and try to release smth like that.

nice app..... 4 starts... make UI more rich looking....
[feature request] - add in settings monthly income credited like salary on user defined date which will eliminate the hassle to enter the amount every month/week and also some common outgoing money pre set

Too poor... well that's what you say... I didn't hear TOO POOR but QUITE SIMPLE TO USE
Anyways... check out my version and compare it to the Financisto version (Version 1.3.5).
I do not want to make APPS that looks like other.
Here, with this APP i want to do something pretty simple, no HARDCORE functions.
I want it to be : Easy, Clear, Pretty
Thanks chowdarygm, Yes, this feature is in preparation
I'll add it ASAP

that's better
but still there's support of several accounts needed.
You know, I've got an idea. Better try to make a credit calculator for credit cards. There should be: total sum of credit, spent sum, annual %, comissions for serving the card (decimal), comissions for serving the account (per cent monthly), minimal monthly payment (fixed sum or percentage counted from spent sum of credit), total sum of debt (including all % and comissions)
I'd like to have such an app and can help in consulting (for Russian banks)

Hehe Thats some ideas !
I've updated the app, a few bugs fixed like disabling the notification, forcing langage etc...
Comming soon :
- Recurrent Outgoings/Incomes (ver. 0.5),
- Widget ! (0.6 i suppose).

ChemicalMoon said:
- Widget ! (0.6 i suppose).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
test it @ 240*320 screen res, some apps show very ugly widgets at these screens.

It'll be some kind of "clean" widget you know... Nothing really extravagant
Something simple which allows you to have a look on your account from your HOME ;-)

App update !
Now in version 0.5 :
--- Now support recurrent incomes/outgoings,
--- a few bugs have been fixed.
Next version (big) : WIDGET !!! (it'll be 0.6).

Can you change the currency from euros to dollars?

Yes, the currency is coming soon
In the version 0.5.1.
This version will also fix the FC when pressing back on the recurent activity

New version available !
Now version 0.5.4. What's new ?
New app icon,
New notification icon folowing your currency,
Now export your data .CSV format (compatible excell) !

Seems nice project, but I stoped search for a financial app for android, because no one have the future to import accounts from other programs(at least csv or qif format). I already use a fincnce program on pc for 2-3 years now. In windows mobile platform the most of that kind of apps have this ability, so was easy to import my accound, and to sync them with pc's app also. I don't understand why in Android there isn't any. The most of these I tried(around 10) have only csv export. It is so difficult?
I hope and suggest to add this future, I think that is very important for this kind of apps. And also multilanguage support, for correct displaying of non latin characters.
Also a localization of your app would be nice. I could do the greek translation, if you add this future.
Anyway I will try it for sure, but I hope that you will add the above futures, so to can realy use it too.
Thanks.
EDIT:
Hey, I cannot find it on market. Doesn' t appear on androlib too.

Hey !
New update ! Now support android >= 1.5 !!!
I'll take a look at QIF format
And for the greek version, why not ! If you could translate everything and send it to me i'd be glad to add this.
And I DO export CSV.
I'll try to IMPORT data too
As you can see this app is only in 0.5.X version. which means I'm still developping !
Now named :
Watch your money

I still cannot find watch your money on market or androlib.
Can you upload the apk here?
For translation I haven't try the probram yet. I' ll need all english texts.
I will start as soon as you give them to me.
I hope that you add import future soon.
EDIT:
Found it via extended search on androlib in Italian market.
Can you put it and on other languages markets?

Hey, Here are the QR codes
Free vresion:
Donate version :

That doesn't help man.
Your app is only in Italian UK and Japan(only donate version) markets, as I can see from androlib.com
So, it isn't in main search but appears only in extended search and only in above markets.
My device cannot see these market. The QR codes open market and point to your app address, which market on my device doesn't see.
So please, upload the apk here, or put it and the other languages markets or slideme or someware that can be accessible.
Thanks in advance.

HISTORY
TrackMe is the conversion of the popular tool written originally for Windows Mobile 5 and 6. This version for Android has widely extended the WM version and includes tons of new features. You can find the original thread for TrackMe for WM here
WHAT IS TRACKME?
TrackMe is a GPS/WiFi/Cell ID tracker. It records your path, speed, altitude, distance, temperature and other parameters. It can also be started remotely using text messages from any other phone.
You can view your data (live or recorded) from your phone or also from any browser if you sync it with a TrackMe server.
Features
* Works with no internet connection. All your data is stored on your phone unless that you decide to sync it with a TrackMe server.
* Stealth mode: Start/stop recording or send your position by sms by sending text messages from other phones without having TrackMe installed.
* Add markers with pictures, comments, file attachments or voice notes to your routes.
* Automatic image matching. You can match existing photos stored on your phone with any of your routes. TrackMe will try to find the closest match by using the tags stored inside the photos.
* Detailed route summary.
* Load any GPX files on the map and follow them!
* Show nearby markers. Check on the map for nearby markers that you have added previously in other routes. Very useful if you are trying to go back to a place that you have visited before.
* Cloud sharing. Share public or privately your position on the map. You can use this to meet with a person, if you both got lost from each other, if you want to see where the person is if it went on a trip...
This feature can be also started and stopped from any other phone using text messages.
* Export and import routes using KML or GPX files.
* Share your position on WhatsApp, sms, email, twitter...
* Highly customizable.
* Use our own server free of charge or your own!
* And much more!

CUSTOM WEB VIEWER DEVELOPMENT AND USER PLUGINS
Click here to visit the thread
WEB BROWSER VIEWER
Created by OpitZle, pammetje, mcross, jcleek and _LEM_ (only TrackMe client<->server communication)
SYNCING YOUR DATA WITH A TRACKME SERVER (you only need the app on your phone)
Let's suppose your wife wants to track your location in real-time.
On your phone: Enable "Sync my positions" in Settings->TrackMe Server Settings->Sync my positions. You also need to enter a username and password.
Now your wife can go to http://luisespinosa.com/trackme from a browser, enter that username and password and enable "Live Tracking On/Off" to see your current position. You need to start recording on the TrackMe app for all this to work.
Keep in mind that Cloud Sharing is less accurate. Syncing with a TrackMe server will allow you as much accuracy as you need, by adjusting the GPS, WiFi, QuickFix, Minimum Accuracy/Distance/Time values in the settings.

I just want to use my own web server, but when I'm going on Google to get my Maps API, Google tells me :
Note: The Google Maps Javascript API Version 2 has been officially deprecated as of May 19, 2010. Version 3 does not require an API key. The V2 API will continue to work as per our deprecation policy, but we encourage you to migrate your code to version 3 of the Maps Javascript API.
does someone is familiar with that ?

That's great LEM!
Oh that brings back memories Now my Touch Pro can enjoy a peaceful retirement

Thanks for making an android version have really missed trackme, hopefully my sig below will work again now

I didn't know about that. I think eventually (unless somebody from the community wants to help) will be redoing the web interface. It hasn't been updated in a long time and I would like to fix and add a few things.

You're welcome! Yes, I can see your signature...hopefully it got updated with the new TrackMe!

By the way, the company that acquired the original TrackMe (and is supporting this new version) is creating a website for it. You can visit it at www.mobiletrackme.com
Eventually we will move everything there. My website got kind of confused right now with so many versions!

Hi,
first many thanks for the android version.
And now my problem, I'am using my own server on port 8080. I've entered the URL Header h**p://xx.xx.xx.xx:8080 and got only an error 401, but didn't find any entries in my log. After a while of searching, I found the entrys on my 2. server running on port 80.

Likewise. This Android version is working like a charm. Thanks LEM!
Would it be possible to run trackme as a service? For my Desire Z it seems somehow to shutdown sometimes when I'm using some other programs when using TM (eg. Foursquare). So I could be sure that it will be run on background when using some other progs. I'm not using any software that would kill processes.
And how about some features that WM -version had? Eg. when turning with some degrees it would push current location right away to the server (and send also angle parameter to the database).
Hopefully you have some time for the future also develop this Android version ahead. Great work! Thanks again. Now I have all the software that I'll need for Android.

[Question] - Android screen video capture?
Done anyone know of any suitable way to capture video of running app on android device?
I've tried several
Capture apps (none reliable though, one said it was taking view, but did not store it, another was unable to start the service). BTW on a rooted dev.
Moto webtop (this really sucks @ 5fps)!!
Thinking about getting a phone grip, putting camcorder on stand over my shoulder and do the job. But what about screen glare from the phone? Anyone had any experience with these?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.roundere

does it support coupons in asia ?

@ aquaphx if you're interested we can certainly do it.
Tell you the truth we have the basic framework, just a few more lines of code and some testing would get it there.
would you be interested?

I've tried screencast http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/, must say its impressive effort and in the right direction. Easy to use and developer clearly sets expectations.
For my purpose i need higher FPS, hence I'm headed out to walmart to get a phone grip and will use my old camcorder, not sure if outcome will be as impressive, but another hour of trial & error, will post results as once I'm done.

Check out the demo video @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oF0Sv8GI7Lg
First shot @ it, but turned it ok,
Equipments used
- video camera
- tripod
- white gift box turned
- kiddie table
- tape
Change display settings on the phone to never timeout and set display brightness to manual (max it out).
point the camcorder straight down, tape the back of the phone to gift box, tape the gift box to a kiddie table. Point and focus your camera down to the phone. Found manual focus helps, since screen display changes can trigger auto focus. And make sue to use 'one finger' -- haha.
Time spent 1 hour and 30 minutes to everything, including adding Music track (credits in youtube video). Could improve with more editing and some additional lights.

We know how exactly that can be - from my location see only 5-6 PoI's total, I have to pan the map quite a bit to get interesting stuff.
BTW what kind of PoI would you be interested in? Name of any local stuff would help us get that data.

Updated from 1.0.4 to 1.5. I have been putting it off because the last version were working fine. Well, I got to say 1.5.0 is awesome. I am still running Samsung galaxy 1 with 2.1 and the performance of panning the map is much smoother now. I got to love the coupon tags sticking out of Target and Best Buy. Now more reasons for me to buy gadgets I might not ever need . Good job guys !

@db thks. would recommend turning on auto updates on the app. please do rate us as well.
R u able to see more data?

Yes, I see there are a lot of local restaurants added in my area which is great. I love the fact that now when I click on an unknown place, your app automatically do a quick search on the web and display review information. No more having to exit the app and text up on google search. Love it.
I am going out of town this weekend, so i will be using this a lot.

don't forget to show us some love -- rate the app favorably on market (if that's where you installed it from). let us know if you have a feature request, maybe we can name the feature after you

F8, Beta crashed on me last night. emailed you the log. Went back to 1.5 release.

Carlos,
Looking at the stack now. Do you remember which area of the map you were in when this happened? This can't happen unless our data is bad or during downloading the data got corrupted.
F8

quick update on data
* Added more pubs and bars
* even more night life spots
* some regional chains
If you can't see new categories, you may have to clear your data cache .

Updated with 1.5.1 : minor bug fixes.
If you have 4.0 phone there is
an outstanding issue on Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.x phones http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=19857 is really Android framework issue.
f8

I did a complete uninstall of 1.5 official first then put in the beta, now it is working. So I am thinking upgrading to the beta directly isn't working. I will let you know if I run into other problem while testing this beta out.

[APP][5.0+] Sh-ort -- URL Shortener

Sh-ort is a how I reimagined a URL Shortener app using Material Design to build a branded experience, through UI and Motion.
There are several apps that take care of shortening urls, and they are great at what they do but they all have more or less the same design and are a little boring.
Also when you have many urls it is difficult to manage the statistics well and to have everything at hand, maybe a general overview of how your links are performing would be fantastic - I thought - and also give the user the possibility to render the entries in the list more recognizable thanks to the preview of the article, or of the page whose URL you have shortened.
Then I thought about who could use the app, to a tempt who perhaps manages several websites for work, and who might want to see how the links belonging to the same site perform.
I have created a small app that attempts to improve the experience with URL shortener, through its structure (overview, all links, best links), the ability to filter links based on the site they belong to, the date, or whether they are added to favorites or not.
The details department is still in its early stages but you can have the complete statistics on clicks already by default, without the need for a subscription as happens in major similar apps.
Of course there is still a lot to improve, so I trust in your feedback to find bugs and to add features that I missed in this first release.
There is a complete lack of translations in all languages and dark mode, which will be implemented once the app has reached a modest number of functions and use cases, making it an attractive app for the average and pro user.
Find more information on my app design and branding process in the Medium article linked below, as well as the link to download the app.
I look forward to hearing from you and your feedback, thanks for your attention.

can you use it on the computer?

I don't care about tracking, do I still have to use a Google account?

For the moment I am focusing on the android app, but in future I may extend to web and other platforms

Hello, the login part has nothing to do with tracking, it is simply used to let the user create collections of short urls on the server, and sync it across devices.

I've tried this app and it is really amazing compared to Bitly android app.
Thanks, Mirko!

Sorry, I meant syncing and saving, not Google tracking me.
Just installed/uninstalled, the app won't even start without a Google login.
I'm not interested in saving, collecting, or syncing shortened URL's, just sending “one and done” links from my phone. Can you tweak this to eliminate the login?

The app is designed to assign an owner to every short url so the owner can check the short url performance. If you are not interested in stats means that this is not an app that fits your needs.

True, no problem. I'm not your target user.

For some reason that app force closes every time I try to load it. Tried clearing cache/data & even uninstall/reinstall. Android 10 stock, w/ magisk

Hello, thanks for reaching out but I cannot guess what is the problem just knowing your android version. For sure I can say that have not passed at least 3 hours yet since you got crashes because the crash console is flat.
Write your device model and as soon I get the report I can see what s wrong and eventually I will fix it.

Would sending you a logcat of the crash make it easier?

The app code is obfuscated, I don t know if you would actually get something useful from it. But giving a try doesn t cost anything, right?
you can find the email where to send the log in the Google Play page of the app
Edit: by the way, the package name is it.mirko.sh_ort if you want to clean your log
