[MOD] Eclair dialer for AOSP. Easy Install (v1.4.1) [2009-12-16]

I've loved the Eclair dialer since the first screen shot I saw, so when the source dropped, I backported it... I'm just finally getting around to posting it. I haven't tested it anywhere but the latest Cyanogen mod, but it should work on any ROM that's based on AOSP. If you have any success installing it, let me know. Use ADB to push it over the old Contacts.apk in /system/app.
With Wysie's help, I've added more features than I'd originally planned to. Here's the latest one I've put together, I'm working on bringing in more of his features, as well as some others I've got planned. Stay tuned for more.
Now has support for T-mobile Visual Voicemail, Google Voice, YouMail, PhoneFusion, and HulloMail.
Also now featuring 'Navigate to' bit in contact details for those with the latest Google Maps.
Fixed self induced bug on keyboard opening. Also trying out a new install method. I was able to just scan the QR below, download, and install straight from my phone. See how it works for you.

Looks nice, but I think everyone uses Visual Voicemail if there on T-Mobile or so I'm lead to believe by the download numbers on Market. Still great work though.

will try it right now
thanks!!

Nice work... Thumbs up.

I've been considering making the voicemail button check to see if visual voicemail is installed, and launch that instead. Good idea?

i was thinking that too. is there away so when you click that button it gives you the option to choose an app to open and then you can select visual voice mail app and then every time you hit it your vvm app opens.

I'll start integrating Visual Voicemail tomorrow, I'll have it done by the weekend. Should it be automatic, as in if the app is installed it launches that, or should I make it an option?

like i suggested before, you should make it allow the user to select the app because not everyone uses the t-mobile visual voicemail app. I'm sure if you got it to do that devs would start cooking it in their roms.
sidenote: i'm using TheOfficial AOSP rom. can you make this compatible or should it work how it is?
edit: just pushed it. it works on TheOfficial. The voicemail button however does not do anything. Tried long pressing it too.

automatic

I use google voice for my voicemail... any chance you could put an option in there for that as well?
Oh and great work! Nice to get a taste of eclair.. and this dialer is pretty cool. Anything else you plan to backport? Like a lockscreen...?

if he made the option for you to choose then it would work good.

I use Google Voice as well. The dialer looks great too.

Force close in landscape
Switching to landscape or using contacts in landscape mode leads to a FC. You might want to be sure it locks itself into portrait mode.

Oops... I'll have a look at that. I use a myTouch, so I completly forgot about the keyboard thing. I'll work out a fix for that before I start on the VM bits. Gonna have to wait 'till tomorrow tho, I gotta be up for work at 4...

As much as I love the 2.0 lockscreen, I think backporting it is a little out of my skillset atm. Changing almost anything in framework-res.apk causes problems with some of the precompiled apps. After I work out the bugs in this and add the VM features, I'll have a look at it tho.

I figured it would be quite a difficult task. But if it's possible, it might be worth it. As there's no telling when we'll be able to have a fully functional eclair rom on the dream. So hey, if you're up for it, go ahead and give it a look

The call and voicemail buttons don't do anything on my g1 running cm4.2.7.1

[App]Llama - Location Aware Mobile Application

Hey guys,
I've been playing about with android for about a year now and I've written this app. It's a location and time-based profile application, so you can set ringer volume, vibrate mode and ring tones for when you are asleep or at work.
It's like an extremely light-weight version of Locale with very few features
Eventually I'll put it on the Market, so I'm trying to figure out if there's going to be enough interest for it.
-Would you pay 60p-£1 ($1 to £1.50) for it?
-If I put it on there as free and ask people to donate, will enough people bother at least to cover the Market fee... do people actually donate beer-money if they know they can get it for free?
-Let me know of any bugs or suggestions (Note: I'd like to keep it simple, if you want lots of features, then I'd suggest a different app)
-This version will expire mid February. I'll hopefully have decided how I want to proceed with it after mid February.
Cheers all!
Usage Instructions:
Llama comes with a predefined set of Profiles, but you can customise these.
Llama uses 'events'. Each event has a set of conditions and actions. When all of the conditions are met, the actions are run. Llama comes with some default events, but you can customise them appropriately. One of the events is named 'Quiet at night', and is based on the fact that you are at home, and the time is after 10pm. This means that when it is late and you are at home, it will turn the ringer to a lower volume. However, if you are at the pub and it's after 10pm, it will leave the ringer alone (NOTE: this is assuming that your home and the pub are suitably far away. Llama works best in built up areas with lots of phone masts). You can also create an event that disables/enables APN mobile data, so your phone isn't pointlessly checking your email overnight
Llama uses no data whatsoever, so you have to teach it the IDs of the phone masts near your home and workplace. Doing this is easy. Just go to the 'Areas' tab and long-press to tell the app to 'start learning' your home or workplace. Tell it how long you plan to be at home or work and it'll make a note of the phone masts that it finds. Then do the same for when you are at work.

Looks good - I'll have a play and report back any feedback
It'd be handy to be able to turn wifi on/off at certain locations - no point having it on in the office when there's no open wifi to connect to.
Any chance of an option to hide the notification icon from the titlebar (show it only shows in the dropdown?)

Thinking some more, it'd be handy to be able to have location categories - something like:
* Home (category)
- My house
- Parents house
* Work
- London's office
- Cambridge office
That way I can have events assigned to "home" or "work" without having to duplicate rules, or merge multiple locations together.

I've added a WiFi toggle. I'll have a think about the area grouping. The point of the notification is so you can see what profile is active by the number of dots on the icon. You can completely hide the icon in the settings. I'm not certain that Llama is the kind of application you need constant access to via the notification bar.

This reminds me of sman application which was there on my p910i. I have been lookinh for this.
Will it be possible for you to add triggering some event such as sms or ringtone. ?

Ack. As far as I can tell it's been deleted now (at least I couldn't find the fake version when searching) - Do you still have plans to release this? I'm finally using it properly now I'm back at work and have found it to work perfectly so far, so it'd be a shame for it to expire on me now.
I'd happily pay £1 for it

I emailed the bloke and he removed it. I also reported it to Google who haven't done much about the rest of his probably stolen apps/themese. He's DavinciDevelopers by the way. If anyone's bored, buy his apps, give them 1 star, then refund
I'm still not 100% sure if I'll release it, but it's likely I will in some form. I need to decide about whether to have it as just a paid version or free+donate. There's still 3 weeks before it expires, and I'll happily extend that if I haven't decided by then.

Cool - glad you've not lost heart after that
I noticed another issue - there doesn't seem to be a way of removing a cell from a location - I accidentially added a cell to both "Home" and "Work". Ended up deleting and recreating the "Home" location.
This is using the (1.20101226) build, as I didn't get a chance to grab the newer version

Yep, known issue I'll probably add an item to the long-press menu to remove a cell from an area.
That does have the downside that you have to have seen the cell recently to remove it. If I just show the cell IDs in an area, then you wouldn't know which to remove.

Any way you could use the Google APIs to get a vague description of the antenna location?
Though I'm happy with just spotting it in the recent list, as that's where I accidentally added it

So is this basically just your version of Tasker?
Tasker is an application for Android which performs Tasks (sets of Actions) based on Contexts (application, time, date, location, event, gesture) in user-defined Profiles, or in clickable or timer home screen widgets.

Pretty much. It started out as a university project 5 years ago on Series 60, and I reimplemented it when I switched to android. There's plenty of apps already like it on the market, so I don't want to completely replicate the functionality of Tasker.

That'd mean it would need to use data. Llama's unique "selling" point at the moment is it doesn't need any data and it just sits there looking at cell tower IDs

Say hello to Jetpack, a better app drawer [Updated!]

My first Android app, mostly to fix a lack of vertical launchers in the Market. I'd love to know what you think of it!
Upcoming updates
First priority: hiding apps.
Second priority: running apps and more
Update: Added an icon to indicate apps in external storage.

Third priority: long press menu (app info and whatnot)

JetPack is an app launcher that is scrollable like Contacts: slide to the right letter and pick your app! Simple, efficient and much easier to read than a grid layout.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
Jetpack is an application drawer replacement that can be used with your favorite launcher. Instead of using the standard grid layout, Jetpack displays your apps in a list to make them easier to find. Just like in Contacts, you can use the scrollbar to get to a specific letter in the list.
This application is not a home replacement, only an application launcher. To use it, create a shortcut on your home screen or your dock.

Now if you put there keyboard with T9 searching, that will be good idea! (Like in Touchpal Dialer for example, but for apps).

I had the same idea! That being said, it's my first app and I need to practice a bit.

I quite like it. It's a bit laggy but I think that's due to the sheer amount of apps I have installed. It's certainly quicker to load than appdrawer.
What I think will make this better is to have letters running along side, it should make jumping to the apps much quicker. In case you don't know what I'm taking about, have a look at ios and miui contacts.
Thank you for the work you put in on this, I will be using it myself .
Best of luck with the development.

I like the idea.
Things I wish to brainstorm:
1)
on the right there's so much space. It's cool and fine, but perhaps something can be done with it...
for example, based on already logged infos (just the ones BetterBatteryStats uses), you could show a mini-icon on the right of those apps who are wakelocking too much. This way, users know which apps do tey need to report/look for a replacement, easy.
Concept is:
Your app is all about the apps. Perhaps, it could be even more, by providing slick, non-intrusive, only-where-needed informations.
2)
an option to add a (very) little more padding between rows
3)
an option to 1.5x icons size
4)
For particular apps, like gMail, an icon to go directly to "Compose new mail", maybe only text, maybe even only when the 1.5x option os on.

Nice app and idea. A bit of lag on tmobiles galaxy s2. Also a letter selection would be good like on stock touchwiz.
——————————
Deebo took your bike too?

It does have some lag but i think that I'd because off the transparency, you might want to try going without or at least having an option. I've noticed the same thing with themes that have a transparent background in various menus that seem to lag but when i go back to an opaque theme its smooth. But other than that its very nice. I can see this bring my app drawer replacement.

Some suggestions!
Add the ability to completely replace the app drawer with it.
Increase icon and text size.
Add the letters on the side like in contacts.
Add searching to the features.
Add a background option.
Optimize it a bit. Slightly laggy on my Motorola Photon.
Still a great start! I cannot wait for it to become more known!

This will happen if you have installed an app that doesn't have a proper name, only a package name.

this is quite nice thus far...
my only suggestion would be to have the ability to hide apps....

That would have been my second priority (after performance is fixed), but it seems search takes the cake. I also want to hide a few apps in there.

I like this app launcher very much.
The features i would like to see have already been said by others, keep up the good work.

This is now fixed (or at least should be). Thanks for the heads up!

Application updated to 1.1:
Considerable performance improvements
Bigger icons
Search and type-to-search

Click to collapse

Oops! Forgot to click "Activate"!
1.1 is now up on the Android Market. If it's not yet updated in your browser, use the download link in the first post.

Good update. Just a suggestion for faster search. When pushing the searchbutton insted of a searchbar there is a grid with letters that shows, then you just tap the letter for the app name your looking for. Kinda like windows phone 7 has for contacts.
Thanks

That's on my priority list! I also noticed searching is too many taps away. Instead I might just pop the keyboard or use T9 to "dial" apps.

Chemistry time @@

Some initial thoughts on the app.
The acceleration on zooming is too high(not a big deal since most screens are big/high resolution enough to not need zooming.)
A landscape element view would help a lot(currently every time you select an element it goes from landscape to portrait.)

Thanks for your message.
Actually, only the Table view of Periodic Table is only in landscape.
So, when you select an element in Table View, the application stays in landscape mode if you are in landscape mode.
Perhaps, you man when you are on detail of element and you return to table view and in this case the apps change from portrait (if you are in portrait) to landscape.

Turns out my auto rotate was off so when I selected an element it went back to portrait.

Hello I am a beta tester from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1927116
I would like to share my opinion
Pro's - The table is very good with the index.
The video and wiki link is very innovative.
And the features of the elements is perfect.
Con's - The only con I could come up with is that you can add the crystal structure, atomic radius, oxidation number, Ionisation enthalpy of every element to it. And you can even add the isotopes of the elements (if any) with their type of disintegration.
Source : I like chemistry.

Yes, it was a bug .
You have downloaded the apk from my server I guess ?
I have forgotten to update the APK on my server. I just fixed the bug on Google Play Store.
Can you try again ? (I'm going to update the APK on my server so now, the app must work well).

good! 
 @this is for you bro! :good:

I noticed something the app author absolutely needs to fix.
This app appears virtually identical to Elementary, which was released on Google Play on November 12th, 2013. The only differences between this app and Elementary are the title bar with its menu items and the addition of a "Fit To Screen" option. Elementary is open source software released under the MIT license, and by that license the OP is permitted to make whatever changes he wishes, without having to share the changes with everyone else. The fact the OP has made the changes he did is not an issue here. The issue is that the author of the source code isn't credited here at all. Under the terms of the MIT license for Elementary posted on Github, the copyright and permissions notices must be present, which I interpret to mean being visible to the end user.
Adding the copyright and permissions notices should be a trivial change for the OP.

Cool!
this is for me!

Hello,
I know that app and effectively, I used some part and added several features like zoom, categories selection, fit to screen option, wikipedia in app details, structure diagram of the elements, etc ... that missed me.
The license included in Elementary is classic MIT (http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) that tells the following :
The MIT License (MIT)
Copyright (c) <year> <copyright holders>

The part in bold tells that all copies of Periodic Table must contain the License. It's the case actually in each APK.
So, I think I respect the MIT License because it's not written that end user must see some informations. It's just your interpretation but it's not a problem for me to add a link on Play Store page of Periodic Table even if it's not an obligation for me.

Thanks. The Play Store link is down btw.

Love trying out a new reddit app so thanks for this.
It's still in beta as you stated and yeah.. it shows but thats fine.
The icon is fugly. That needs an overhaul. Maybe I can help you out with that. Hell, maybe I'll do it for fun just to see what I can come up with .
It needs to be simpler. The fact that you need to click a post and then also click "view page". Just hassle. Maybe make it so you can click the image and it'll just pop open.
The buttons are also fugly. Something flatter and holo will go a long way.
The upvote/downvote....just needs better placement. I'm not too sure if people would rather see them directly on the post or have to click on a post to see it but thats the only constructive criticism I can offer. Just needs better placement. How? I'm not too sure yet.
Its slow. Takes quite awhile to open items especially the comments.
Comments: Doesn't look too bad but maybe add some lines down the left hand side or something and have them indented. You can't really tell which comments are replies to others.
This is all my opinion and meant to be constructive. I would LOVE to learn how to create half of this so I definitely applaud your effort. If you ever need a tester before releasing, I'm here and would love to help out in any way.
Thank you!

Best for Reddit
Thanks for letting me know... Not active as before..
Used the app for 1hour; downloaded from Google play store..
Suggestions :
Improve the app icon ( HD image ).
UI smooth need a option for full screen too..
Double tap not working I think please check.
Rest all fine.. Best app for reddit with no ads..
Voted

Maybe I'm missing something, but even after I signed in, the lefthand navigation remained with the default subreddits, and did not show my personal subscriptions.

Personal subscriptions.
If i'm right you guys have missed the Personal Subscriptions API..

We have changed the icon now, Please update the application...

Icons
After the update the icons looks decent dude.. More to improve..

Very good idea and app, works well.

I'm really confused with this app, i couldn't find the reddits i'm subscribed to (i was logged in) and i don't know how to look at some pages, for now, i'll stick with Reddit Now

Could do with adjustable text. I have to wear my glasses to read the posts.

Am i missing something? I don't see the text of posts I open. Links to websites, pictures, and gifs work fine, but text only posts show part of the heading and then just the comments.
And I agree with jax above you should be able to click a post to go into it; in addition I think you should be able to long click to get a context menu which might include share, for example.

Great app, would love a tap and hold to save image or menu option save image and just clicking on the post should open it, have a comments button under the post instead we can tap on to expand them. Seriously great work though for a new app! Thanks for this

Link flair?

Shouldn't "Raising" be "Rising"? I agree with some of the suggestions already given. Otherwise nice app!

I will add one vote constructively, Dark Mode for OLED.

Nice app but there are many things my designer eye doesn't like
- the splash screen is just a pixelated stretched image. looks very weird
- the "rate reddit for android"-dialog should use android's default choice dialog style and not this 10 minute layout
- don't start a new activity everytime you click a button
- the category dropdown items are way too small, just stay to android default theme here
- I wouldn't show the icons of the navigation bar on the left. it's kinda confusing and wastes space, too
- I'd completely remove the bottom bar, but that's a design choice. I'd replace prev/next by a tab/swipe-layout, put the search icon into action bar and completely remove the homebutton because it's useless imo
- I'm not sure about the filter icon in the action bar. I mean it's easy to understand but it looks kinda weird like it doesn't fit the iconography guidelines.
- don't lock landscape mode
- the post-buttons are looking weird and don't consider the available space(check the image1 in attachements)
- there are text alignment problems in the comments(screenshot 2)
- Also I don't really understand what these arrows on the left of every comment are about
- also the list of of posts aren't intuitive because u have to click them and it shows buttons then. I'd change it so a click directly opens the page and then u could add a comments button in the actionbar
- about the +1 button in the bottombar: what is it for? for liking the app? the currently selected post? reddit as a service?
also I had a FC. dunno if it has been caused by xprivacy though

conclusion:
Your app isn't that bad but you really need a better design
