HTC Topaz - Wallpaper Changer

I've built this application: Wallpaper Changer v1.0
As the name says it changes the wallpaper manually or automatically, taking everytime a random jpg file from the local "My Pictures" folder of PPC.
Now I'd really like to have some feedback from those that are interested in order to develop it further.
So please leave me a message here if you want to have it.
Thanks

Would be interested in giving it a try if you upload it
Also just wondering but can you specify the frequency the wallpaper changes and also is there an option to set the order of the change?

Hi there.
You were very fast... thank you for your interest. Sure, you can set the change frequency. I don't understand what you mean by the order... but this order is random in this version.
Because I am new in this forum, please let me see how I can upload files here... or if you know how to do this...
Thanks.

Ok then...
So here it is... Wallpaper Changer v1.0
I upload it here and leave it open to everybody...
Any feedback is much appreciated.
Thank you.

Was there any need?
kevin2u Diamond Background Changer from Diamond 1 still works fine.

Appear to be great!
Nice app! Congrats man! Thanks for the tool!
But it's giving an error when I try to enter in "Change Now".
The details of the error:Wallpaperchanger.exe - DividedByZeroExcepection.
It would be great if I could use it!
Thanks a lot!

hmmm... its a great idea and seems it will be a great application, but it needs a little more work.
I have a HTC Touch Dual and its not working on mine...
How about:
- Not being only for HTC's? All ppc's can have a wallpaper image, right?
- Allowing the user to choose where to get the wallpapers from?
- Allowing the user to customize the time (X minutes/hours).
BTW, if you edit the first post this is the best way to share the app:

Actually this is the only version that worked on my wm6.5 so far...
It only has a few quircks, the folder selection is very limited and the app has to be open for it to change the walllpaper...

Thank you very much for your interest in my application. This error of yours is most probable because you don;t have any jpg files in the local "My Pictures" folder. I recommend to copy some there. Anyway I will consider this case and will fix it in the next release. I will also do so that the user has the chance to choose its own folder from which WPChanger to pick up images. Thanks... so be tune ... maybe for this weekend.

Hi there and thank you for your interest. Your error is most probable because you don't have any jpg files in your local "My Pictures" folder... but i will take care of this in the next release and will do so that you can set your own folder with pictures where the WPChanger picks the images from.

Doesnt seem to be the author he just put the app

Nice app!
works well, the only thing I would have liked to have seen would have been viewing the pictures in order as i have a lot of sequences of pictures of things like sunsets/day night etc. Rather then just the random.
Thanks

Thank you mate!
Later today a new version WPChanger v1.1 will be released ... It will be posted in a new topic because is very good technique to see the user ratings per each version. This way I can keep track of what steps to do next.
Thank you all for your feedback... this is the most important for a software development.

Try New version of this (In time change)http://www.wmmania.cz/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33921

Thanks for your last comment first of all, now let's sort this.
You need to set folders on your SD starting with Media, create another in that called audio, then another 4 in that called, Alarms, Ringtones, Notifications and the last one Music. Any files you put in notifications will now show when you go to select them.

After you create the folders that you suggested, how do you download the tones into the notification folder. I am using ASTRO. If I should know this, I'm sorry but am a newbie.

The easiest way is to download them to the computer and transfer them to the folder on the SD card with Windows Explorer.

but astro has got the "cut and paste" function too...
i cant really understand that problem...

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

No, it´s not possible - at least not with builtin abilities. You can only assign different ringtones for incoming calls

yeah i thought as much, cheers mate.....

I believe there's a Mortscript out there, named MortRing, that'll allow you to assign different message tones per contact. I haven't tested it yet myself so I don't know if it works. Here's the file..give it a try and let us know if it works.

[AUDIO] How To Correct Samsungs terrible hardware EQ settings

Hi,
As with the SGS Samsung has crippled the audio quality for playback by setting really bad EQ settings. However, this can be corrected by changing them in servicemode app, but this has to be done on every boot since they are resetted.
thanx go to Supercurio for the SGS version of this.
So here is the howto:
Code:
go to ServiceMode by entering [SIZE=2]*#*#197328640#*#* like a telephone number.[/SIZE] or through SGS Tools
select
[5]Audio
[2]Headset
[1]TX value
[3]Tx Filter
there you find
[1]Filter 1: {some value}
to
[7]Filter 7: {some value}
change each of them to 0 by selecting then press menu key and choose key input.
you should end up with
[1]Filter 1: 0x0
[2]Filter 2: 0x0
[3]Filter 3: 0x0
[4]Filter 4: 0x0
[5]Filter 5: 0x0
[6]Filter 6: 0x0
[7]Filter 7: 0x0

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
now play some music over your headphones and enjoy best undestorted audio quality...
this is just a temporary solution because of resetted values on reboot, but for now i think it is a starting point for others to develop this further...
just found out that unlike the SGS on sg3 this settings survive a reboot, so it has too be done only once...
edit: to raise the overall volume a bit i entered 2da8 in all filters!!

if you are on a custom rom that has no serviceModeApp.apk the numbers in dialepad disapear and nothing else happens, if so take serviceModeApp.apk from here and push it to /system/app/
known limitations:
does not work on ddjp2 (Audio Menu blocked)
does not work on jpq/s (Audio Menu blocked)

not needed with custom kernels featuring Voodoo Sound!

Edit:works gr8 now

Tried with some music with deep bass, almost no distortion at full volume. Before the fix it was impossible to listen to because of the cracking noises, so it's not just placebo

Hope this is implemented in roms

Oh yeah! Now it sounds like a stereo headset !
I don't lose the values even after a reboot.. They are still all zeros

Is it working with the speakers too ? Because they sound a bit strange too.

you can try, just choose speaker instead of headset, but i think you wont realize to much of a difference, since the speaker is not realy a good one anyways...

its not working on my phone.
after dialing these no. it gets deleted by itself and nothing happens.
I have tried it using sgs tools also.
I am on DDJP2.

I might be getting something wrong here, but are you hitting the dail button? If so you did something wrong. You are not supposed to hit the dial button, it'll pop-up after you finish inputting the correct number/character sequence

i know about DSPManager, but it is part of CyanogenMod, and i am pretty sure it needs a big afford to implement, and i am not capable of doing that.

Any way to increase the speaker volume by a hack?

[APP] Lock Sound Changer

hay there guys im a newbie here on the forums and at android development but i have competed the public beta of my second app in one day
lock sound changer does exactly what it says on the tin it lets you change your lock sounds on any rooted android device 2.2 and up.
t.co/RrzB0XL is a shortened link to it on the market hope someone finds this useful oo also its free have fun guys and read the instructions below
copy locked.ogg and unlocked.ogg to /sdcard/locksoundchanger
any size ogg will work but it has to be ogg.
its a good idea to backup the default stock android lock and unlock sound first to before changing anything.
if your sure you have everything in the right place hit "change lock sounds" and then test it out.
lock sounds have to be enabled to check this goto
Settings > Sound > Check Lock Screen Sounds
thanks!

waooo thanks so much dude..
i was waiting for something like this where i could change the sound of the lockscreen lock/unlock.. i was so much use to changing the sound of the unlock/lock screen on my windows phone (the samsung omnia) with a very famous app s2u2 (slide to unlock)
i am sure all the chefs will include your app in their custom roms
no doubt u made it to the highlight page on xda
u deserve a thanks
i am also attaching a few .ogg format files which you people can use
remember to rename it to locked.ogg and unlocked.ogg when you keep it in the /sdcard/locksoundchanger folder
the rar file contains the files
1)desire locked.ogg 2)desire unlocked.ogg
3)dhd locked.ogg 4)dhd unlocked.ogg
5)galaxy locked.ogg 6) galaxy unlocked.ogg
give it a try.... for me the sound works only when the device is locked (my device rooted galaxy s on GB xxjvb )
click the thanks if you want to thank me

It's okay i like it. Just need to find some cool sounds to add.

I wish I was home. I always wanted the Star Trek communicator chirp as an unlock-sound.

thanks for this very usefull app gona have a play now

If anybody finds some good sounds please post!

Thanks guys really chuffed this got on the main page big xda fan and i dont really post enough, really like the write up of the app have fun with your lock sounds also thanks to the user who posted the zip good job

Well done Beanfarmer... We need to work out why it doesn't want to run on my ZTE Blade now.... I'm tempted to go back-back to CM7 and try it again...
If not, we'll work it out in work on monday
Chunks

yeah chunk it could be that the default blade rom mounts /system differently, is it asking for root? is it force closing? the lock sounds might even be in a different place... but yeah ill have a look on monday

nice app will try and find some good sounds

Works great, but sometimes the sounds get cut short.

Sound FX!!!
What a killer idea. I found these sound effects months ago and have just had them stashed away in my "goodies" folder with the idea that eventually I would get around to trying them out. With this app, it looks like I finally can try them out with little to no effort! I have searched and searched and I cannot for the life of me find the thread where I got these to give the OP credit. Please, if someone comes across the thread with these files, quote this post and toss their name up to give them props.
This zip contains 8 cool and unique lock/unlock sounds. Again, these are not mine, just something I procured from this great community. If somebody wants to hit thanks for me posting these, fine, just please don't credit me as having created these. I'm just simply sharing something that was shared with me!!!
Thanks again for this great app.
***IDEA FOR YOUR NEXT APP... what about an app (or maybe an expansion of this one) to also change the "select" sound. My evo clicks. I've really wanted to find the sound that sounds more like a short, flat tone. Don't know how to describe it. I think it's the nexus. Just a thought!!

Does anybody have an idea why?

Hit thanks if you like them!

Hi OP, its cool that I was almost gonna post a question yesterday how to get this done, lo and behold you already created one... great work!
btw, I tried most of the oggs posted here. Doesn't seem to work for my DHD on RCmixHD... any thoughts on this?
