[paused][Application] Calli - A CalDAV-Client - Android Apps and Games

INFORMATION: Currently the development of Calli has come to a stop. Because of personal reasons I don't have much time to invest in Calli. The CalDAV Library is mainly finished and only needs some tweaking. I will be focusing on finishing the library when I have time. The client itself will be finished, but I can't give you any timeline on that one. As soon as I have more time, there will be more progress. I currently think of a new redesign of the client.
Introduction – Calli
With this thread I am presenting you Calli!
Calli is a CalDAV-Client for the android operating system. Due to popular demand of a Caldav-capable calendar software I started this project. The project was also part of my work at university.
An integration of the caldav standard into the Google-calendar is (as far I know) not yet possible. So a standalone client is my goal.
Progress
* Currently I am porting the iCal library and working on the backend-client.
Features
Following features will be available for Calli:
(this list is not in order of priority)
Support for Free-Busy time, as specified by the Caldav-standard
Support for multiple calendars
Assigning colors to calendars
Storage of local data, only updating the changed events
Import/Export as *.ics files
Synchronisation with calendar software
Different views of the upcoming events
Alert/Reminder function
These features are the main goals of the developement. Any further suggestions is appreciated.
Versions
There will be a free-version with just a few features of above mentioned list, but with full support for caldav-servers.

Hello
Here are my hints for you:
Things, i expect:
- Multiple Calendars
- Each Calendar is colored in a different color
- a simple Gui (like the standart android calendar)
- daily, Weekly and monthly view
- (optional) Task view
- (optional) Reminders
Hope, that helps
Greetings

Hi,
How about icons (such as sbsh calendar)?
iCal support i guess is a must, well for me anyway.
Other than that the same as what romses has mentioned above.
If you need a beta tester let me know. I'd be glad to help.
Good luck.

This is pretty much this, what I already planned Good to know I am on the right path . The Icons like sbsh is new to me, I will take a look
@gellen: iCal support – support of *.ics files, or support for Apples (c) Calendar Software?

I'm no coder and don't have much of a clue, but is it really inevitable to code a whole calendar app. Can't you just sync the CalDAV calenders into the Android calender framework. IMHO there's a bunch of mature calendar apps out there, no need to reinvent the wheel. That would let you concentrate on a perfect two way sync behaviour.
What I really would like to see is a transparent integration of CalDav Calendars into the existing calendar so that my work calendar can coexist with my private Google calendar.
Can't wait for you app

Well, that was my intention in first place, but the calendar source is not open sourced (yet). So there was no other way, then reinventing the wheel
But it was part of my work at university, so most of the program is done. just redesigning some things and everything should be fine

Helping hand
Hi Iowahc,
You can consider me as a helping hand in this.
I would be glad to help develop this.
After looking around for an alternative calendar app, I think, I could have done more productive work in developing than searching!
btw, following is my wish-list (additional to the others already mentioned above):
1. data separate from google calendar (data not saved in google calendar)
2. option to synchronize with google calendar
3. recurring events.
4. option to add events on the day/week/month view by long press.
5. drag to reschedule existing appointment.
Let me know how I can contribute.
-Adam

How is the status of this project?

@jacobtc: I am currently redeveloping the whole backend, cleaning some code, and manage some ressources.
Stay further tuned

Nice! Would it support iCal? Because I really wan't to have my school calendar synced with my phone.

what do you mean with iCal?
the ical standard (i.e. *.ics files)
or
Apples Calendar Software
First one is supported, practically ical is caldav, though

Hi,
ist there any status update of your project?
Do you publish your app as open source?
Greetings,
EdMolf

Hello EdMolf, I am sorry, currently I am not planning to release the project as Open Source. But I may publish my CalDAV Library as Open Source (which is a part of Calli)
In the last few days I had some other stuff to work on, but I am focussing again on Calli. I updated the first post with Links to Webpages, with updates on Calli.
Also I have reactivated my twitter Account to bring you guys up-to-date.
So hang on

Any progress?
Hi,
Is there any progress??
When can we see an alpha or a beta release?
I would love to help you test it.

Hi there. Calli is in development. Currently i am in a lot of work. Sorry for the waiting time. I plan to release an alpha version still in 2010. The alpha will be limited to a bunch of people. Further details on that will follow. Sorry for the inconvenience. I will giving you all reports on the development. Stay tuned

Any updates on this ? I am also looking for a good CalDav Sync.

Progress!
Hello @ all!
I know you waited long for some promising Updates.
Well, as for now, I am currently discussing the whole Calli project with my boss, on how to integrate the client into our own product. So there will be some enjoyable progress in the next time
I apologize for my little progress updates in the past.
Currently I am reimplementing the CalDAV Interface of calli. A lot of code to rewrite. This work is slowing calli down, but is necessary to support multiple servers.
As soon as this work is done, there will be an alpha to test. I plan a closed alpha release for some of you (maybe about 10 people). To get some feedback.
I will provide some screenshots of the past version of calli (the prototype) and of the new menu that is implemented in the first post
I hope you all enjoy these news and I will be back again soon

Great news.
Keep up the good work!

Very excited about this. Pretty suprised to find out that there is a lack of CalDav support for google calander / android. Trying to get my calander synced with with the work cal but no luck.
Looking forward to this! Its def needed in the market!

[APP] Multi List Checklist Application! Updated v2.0

Hello XDA!
I know there are hundreds of To Do List applications already submitted to the Play Store, however many of them that I found were too cluttered with features, or had a very unappealing layout.
Because of this, I decided to create Multi List! Its themed to look like an ICS for all phones, regardless of your Android version. This is my first Android project so I would really appreciate your feedback and suggestions. You can email me at [email protected]. Before creating this app, the only programming experience I had was with Python and PHP with MYSQL. I'm currently a student at Indiana University in the School of Informatics program, and I spent a portion of this current semester learning Java and Android. I created this application as a class final project, but I will continually work on making Multi List better.
I'm also highly considering open sourcing the application. The popular open source To Do lists, Astrid and Open Intents, are so complicated and featured that it is really hard for anyone learning Android development to figure out how the code is working. I believe open sourcing this could help any new developers, as well as help make the app better. I'm not at all interested in making money off of this. If anybody has advice on the best code hosting site for open source Android applications, let me know. I feel like most are using Google Code or GitHub.
Here is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.informaticsdev.multilist
If you do not have a Play Store account, I have uploaded the current .APK file on my site. Find the link here. http://informaticsdev.com
Thank you!

just downlaoded it...very nice! You will see my review in the play market under "Bobby".
Thanks man! Neither the backup nor the edit option should be too difficult to implement. After my finals are finished a week from now I should be able to add these pretty quickly. Next update will also give the option to use the holo light theme if desired.

thankyou, downloading it and going to try it out for my homework =)
Thanks!
Let me know how you like it and any suggestions to make it better! I should be releasing a new version with some of the requested features from others sometime this week.
Updates Soon
I've added planned updates for next release in the second post. Thank you all for your suggestions either by email, forum, or Play Store review. I'll continue to add more expected features, while trying to keep it as simple as possible.
Version 1.5 now available
I have updated the application with many of the requests that have been asked from me. See the second post for update details. I didn't want to hold out on what I had done so far, so I went ahead and released a new version, and the other updates will be out soon.
Things next release:
Edit name of category or listing.
Persistent Sorting.
Coming Soon:
Widget
Thank you! I would appreciate any feedback. I have a limited number of devices to test so I may accidentally miss things. For some reason, it may require pressing a theme option more than once to change it. I will try and fix this next release as well.
Huge update released! ICS action bar now used on all android versions + edit checklist item name.
Only major thing missing which I will add next release is ability to rename a checklist.

Yeah..... I noticed that too :/ lol I forgot to change it. I feel like I update too often now as it is, so I'll fix it next release when I add the option to rename entire lists. How did you like the backup feature that you had requested? Do you have any suggestions to make that part better.
And thanks Nexus2515!

yeah it's really no big deal at all. certainly not worthy of an update just for that. looking forward to the rename list option! and couldn't ask for more with the backup feature...i'm a rommer so im always creating backups with texts and certain apps, and my task list is always one of them so that was a big deal for me! seems like it works exactly as it should! thank you!
I just finished the rename list option. I'll update it soon. I don't know what the standard is for updating apps. I don't want to frustrate users by updating daily (which I have for the last couple of days), but then again I don't want to hold out on updates.
Other than that, I think the app is pretty full featured. For its purpose, a widget would be nice and some sort of syncing option but thats mostly it. My next work on this would be to add a widget, but at the time, I don't think I'm capable of building in Google Tasks sync. I may open source it at some point for assistance on that and more app recognition. I didn't even know a bit of Java or Android programming until about 4 months ago lol.
i personally do not mind app updates. i guess it bothers some people but i actually like going into the market and seeing updates!
the widget would be very nice...and honestly the only other thing i was going to suggest was the sync feature. although, as you said, i'm not sure if it is possible with google or not.
right now the app does everything i would ask for, so anything else is just icing for me.
there is an app out there that i have used in the past, cozy i believe it is called, that has the ability to sync across devices which was nice. idk y i stopped using it to be honest. lol. i would be able to update a grocery list, etc. and my wife could see the updated list on her phone and vice/versa. not a bad feature. i think it was the layout of the app itself that i wasn't crazy about so i stopped using it.
I just updated the app with rename options! I had to update because it was crashing on Honeycomb. Everything should be working perfectly on all devices now.
And yeah, honestly most to do list apps now sync. At some point I would like to figure that out, but that would be later down the road.
As a request from someone, I am working on an export to xml/html. I have the xml export working, however xml isn't really a good solution for a readable file. I will not have any time to work over the weekend, but I should be able to put out an update soon that gives the ability to send lists by email, etc. This would be formatted as html in a table type layout that could also be printed, etc.

This is really very very good. I have been using it now for 2 months to keep track of the 3 jobs I currently have. For me the best feature is the ability to set the extra hourly wage I am paid for working certain hours during the week, at night and at weekends. Once these are set I simply need to "punch in" and "punch out". The app works out the rest for me. It is also very useful if you are going to charge a client for your services. The ability to enter hours work historically is also very useful.
One last thing: Great support!
installing now will post feedback
I'll try!!
I'm gonna try it, then I'll give you some fb!!! seems nice...

Working on it right now. Well one-way export anyway.
First i'am going to make a "Calendar" tab that shows your tasks in calendar form. It will have an export feature to generate .ical files, which can be imported into Google Calendar, OSX Calendar and most other calendar software.

But ical is a little slow.. isnt possible to auto sync and post in some calendar? (make a new calendar for this app)
Some PC or web apps sync with gcal succesfully, is possible with android app? (i dont know... i try to work with google API in one app but they add new oauth for his apps and make me trouble...)

Yes its also possible to read/write events directly into Google Calendar using their API.
Haven't really looked into it much, but i would need a way to uniquely identify each event so there won't be duplicates if the user exports/syncs multiple times.
OAuth2 shouldn't be a problem since i'am already using it as log-in to the embedded issue tracker and it's web back-end.

[APP] Latest News [28.10.2017]

Hi all,
I've made a super simple app for reading news using news-api. It shows sources (groupped by categories). So in short, app can:
Add xml feeds sources to the app
Show each source latest news
Show a preview of news (with basic Share and Open in browser options)
Tries to fetch the full content of the news including images
Show latest news of Favorite sourcess
Shows you a bookmarked list or articles
Download on Google Play Store: Latest News

Thank you for being an alpha tester. Please keep in mind that...
I'm opened for requests/ideas
I'll even fix any bugs you find!
Will change the name of the app to something better, since "latest news" will return at least 3029482093480 items when using search on google play store.

Rollout of new release has started:
Version 0.0.1 build 6
- Improved speed of scrolling in Favorites list and News of Source
- Implemented the grabber system which fetches the whole article and parse possible text of article including images (this is alpha of alpha app!)

Thank you for your feedback. One of the next major improvements to app will be possibility of adding custom news pages. I will try me best to add it as soon as possible :good:
@paed808 & others
next release brings adding custom news sources:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

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

Another huge update being rolled out today: Custom feeds!
There's been lots of refactoring, small fixes and improvements, but the biggest thing is finally implemented. Adding custom feeds. Just add the url of the news page or direct feed url (example http://www.cbc.ca/news), select a category and hope for the best!
Feel free to report any bugs you find.
After some release-break, here's yet another one. This has been an amazing month with a-lot of effort going towards development. Started as a simple newsapi client, I've got a few requests for which, I was sure it will take a while to implement them all. Since today, Latest News includes:
- a superb wizard just to remind you its beginner friendly,
- revamped source adding, which doesn't relly on newsapi anymore but uses own methods to fetch xml feeds and parse the data,
- super awesome grabber(tm), which downloads and parses the whole article from the websites, removes everything except the text story and images.
- an awesome back-end synchronization, which makes sure, your sources are always safe,
- and increadible new and redesigned menu (yea, this deserves a place on the list too!) and extra animations
It has been an awesome month.
Now, its up to people to start using it
Another update has been pushed to beta channel:
- added feeds Gruenderszene, NBA, JS weekly, Android Police, XDA-developers, Mac Rumors
- update sync so it will now handle a conflict between different remote/local entries; you will now have options to overwrite local, db or merge both,
- added read flag to article after it has been read.
- fixed the issue with images not being overwritten after refreshing the articles
- fixed the width of items which text isn't long,
- synchronizing favorites should now also work better
Enjoy!
Hi everyone! I'm happy to announce the first PRODUCTION release being rolled out.
Enjoy and don't forget to submit any bugs you find or feeds suggestions you would like to see in the app.

Wow the app is really cool. I will give it a try for a few days and see what It can do.
Just a question: can you add a way to login using Google account? There's a lot of passwords to remember and using Google is much better, with synchronization is superb.
PS: If you need someone to help you translating to portuguese let me know.
Finally an app that allows me read short rss feeds in full. Loves it. Please any plans for an import feature so I can import my feedly subscriptions? Thanks

good evening @sourbear and thank you for your report. Just for test, please try adding "neowin". There are A LOT of sources, that just don't add image as leading article image (default rss image for specific article). However, it just happened none of your picked up source articles currently dont include any images.
MTV, at that time, had images, I've tested it again and what you found is correct. (Shame on them! ). Give them all a day or two.... you will start seeing them eventually. :good:

So, two questions, do you plan to add mathjax/mathml support, and offline support as well?? Right now I tried https://terrytao.wordpress.com/feed/ and the math is not shown properly. Some formulas appear too big, some don't appear at all. Thank you for your work @greglord

Hi there
I will take a look immediatelly what's going on with those formulas!
Update @gilcu3
Just checked the source of the article and... oh my So far, I've made the formulas visible, however, since there is so much mixing between paragraphs and images (formulas), the "grabber" does not add texts to the full story. I humby ask for re-test after new update. If the content isn't something that suits you, I will invest more time and refactor the grabber to be more smart.

It is time for a new, modern, open source, privacy friendly email client for Android.
I have just released a first alpha version for feedback on the design and features.
Not for production use yet!
Most of the stuff basically works, but be prepared for crashes and error notifications.
Safe email is a working name, but it is for several reasons not a convenient name, so suggestions for a name are welcome.
Great idea and big project.
Good luck !
I'll be following you.
Thanks
For the name, what about NetMail ?
As I always say with your new projects: "Downloading..." Feedbacks will come later.
I finally left K9 mail after using it for several years.
Thanks again for your work for the Android community!
I have just released alpha version 0.2
Alpha versions are not for production use!
Changelog/download:
https://github.com/M66B/open-source-email/releases
In case of error notifications you can now send me a logcat via the navigation drawer menu, but please check this XDA thread first to prevent me from looking into the same problem over and over again.
Feedback about the design, structure, navigation, features, etc is very welcome.
Great first impression so far. Thanks Marcel!

The reported problem will be fixed in the next release:

If you were wondering why you occasionally need to refresh messages in most other email apps, including the Gmail app, to get new email: these apps don't start a foreground service like this app does. This means that especially recent Android versions will kill the background service(s) of these app after some time, which will results in not only missing emails, but also in polling/synchronizing again, which is a waste of battery power and of internet bandwidth.
The foreground service of this app will synchronize messages in real time with the disadvantage of showing a low priority status bar notification, although the notification is a reassuring sign that things still work and it even shows some useful information, like the number of operations pending (mark as read, messages to send, etc).
If you use a well known email provider with this app and the provider is not listed in the account/identity screen, please provide the details of the provider (name, IMAP/SMTP host name/port number/STARTTLS) here.
The details of the current providers are here:
https://github.com/M66B/open-source-email/blob/master/app/src/main/res/xml/providers.xml
Downloading, as it would nice to have an alternative to samsung email...

Just set up several accounts and tested, synchronized messages are extremely fast. looking forward to further development. Thanks!
Great idea Marcel @M66B, I am using K9.
Subscribed for use....keep it up!

I don't know if it's a well known email provider but including mailbox.org would be great:
<provider name="mailbox.org">
<imap
host="imap.mailbox.org"
port="993" />
<smtp
host="smtp.mailbox.org"
port="465"
starttls="false" />
I'm really looking forward to test your app!

Did you test if this provider works with the app?
I have just released alpha version 0.3
Changelog/download:
https://github.com/M66B/open-source-email/releases
A number of bugs were fixed, but this is still not for production!
Been using K9 for years, haven't found anything else I've liked to replace it. Looking forward to this -I'm a big fan of your work!
For yahoo.com:
imap.mail.yahoo.com:993,SSL/TLS true
smtp.mail.yahoo.com:587, STARTTLS True
When I try and configure yahoo with imap.mail.yahoo.com, port 993, it says "IDLE Not Supported" when I click on the OK button.
I am able to configure the SMTP server however with no issues using port 587
Provider: Posteo
<provider name="Posteo">
<imap
host="posteo.de"
port="993" />
<smtp
host="posteo.de"
port="465"
starttls="false" />
Tested and it works.
How does Fencemail sound?

[APP][5.0+][v0.9.0] Tag My Knowledge - Personal Knowledge Management made simple

Tag My Knowledge
Personal Knowledge Management made simple
Quickly store and categorize bits of knowledge you find in books, videos or podcasts and convert them into habits that change your life.
​
Hey everyone!
I love watching podcasts and CEO interviews on YouTube. However, I quickly ran into some big issues (see below).
Luckily, since I'm a developer, I can fix these for myself. The solution turned out to be pretty good, so I decided to share it
Issues that I ran into with existing solutions (ie. what this app is trying to solve)
Issue #1: Knowledge is buried under grocery lists
Originally I used Google Keep, but at some point I realized that everything below a certain "scroll threshold" was lost forever unless I specifically searched for it.
To combat this, Tag My Knowledge uses what's called spaced repetition.
By reading something 10 times with time in between, you remember it much better than If you read it 10 times in a row.
That's why Tag My Knowledge uses a feed-approach. Every day, you see random items so you subconsciously build habits out of them!
Issue #2: Note taking wasn't fast enough
Speakers talk pretty fast and while you can pause & rewind YouTube videos, it quickly becomes annoying. Even worse, you can't rewind live events.
Tag My Knowledge is optimized to keep up with that. Adding knowledge takes as few clicks possible.
That way, you never miss some important off-topic nugget never again!

Features
A single piece of knowledge can consist of a title, rich text description, a source (with optional link), tags and one or more categories
You can manage all of your tags in one place
You can modify your list of categories (up to 5). You can change name, icon and order.
The first 4 will be shown as tabs at the bottom for quick access
You can filter for tags
You can toggle feed/history mode. History mode shows all your knowledge in chronological order (within that category), feed is essentially random (algorithm behind it but whatever)
Works on multiple devices (currently only on Android & via Progressive Web App)
Download / Where to get it
Website (here you can also sign up for a newsletter to get notified on updates)
Progressive Web App (also works on iOS)
Huawei App Gallery (doesn't have Google login, otherwise equal. Screenshots are outdated, app isn't.)
As of right now, the app is completely free and everything that's in it will definitely stay free forever.
That being said, if there's enough interest, I'll probably create some sort of premium plan so I can continue to improve it.
I have so many ideas on how to improve this, but I can't afford to invest my life into it without being able to pay my rent.
Please comment below and let me know what you think about it
Specifically, these are the question on my mind right now:
- Is this useful to you at all?
- What solution are you currently using, if any?
- I would use this, if ...
Have a great day!

Basically a good idea, but why do we need an account for it? I'd rather keep my notes local. If need be, put them in a folder to sync via the preferred solution (e.g. NextCloud).
Thanks for the feedback!
I thought about that as well, but in the end I decided against it for a few reasons:
- The app is built for simplicity and having to set up your own sync solution would go against that
- Synchronization between mobile & web versions can never be completely seamless & instant when relying on cloud storage providers or custom solutions. I also found this way too easy to mess up on both sides.
- Local-only data is inherently lost when you lose your phone. This is obvious, but originally I was the only person I developed for and I constantly softbrick/switch/factory reset/upgrade my device so I'd rather not risk that or take the time to do manual export/import
I also have a lot of features planned which simply aren't possible (or become incredibly tedious) when the database is local.
- A twitter bot to tag knowledge automatically when you @ it (similar to readwise.io).
- In-app knowledge sharing (if I get the chance, I'd build some optional social media features into the app). For example you could share your knowledge in exchange for a custom email feed of other people's knowledge that could be interesting for you
- A chrome extension

Right, that does sound interesting and well thought-through. But in the end of the day that approach is exactly *not* what I am looking for. Thanks anyway.
