Hi guys !
One of the coolest features of Android 2.3 is the native SIP client.
The thing is, once you have configured / enabled it, it will always ask which network to use (GSM or SIP) each time you start a phone call, not only when you are WiFi conected.
So I am searching for an app that has one of these two features :
- Automatically enables SIP when connected on wifi and disables it otherwise
- Provides a widget that permits to enable / disable SIP with a simple click.
Does such an app exists ?
Thank you very much for your answers

CSipSimple is a very good program that uses its own SIP stack.
I meant the system's SIP stack...
Did you find a widget? Im looking for one too. Going through the settings menu is too much work.

On Google Play there's the SIP Switch Widget, which does what you're searching for.
You can find it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.siebeck.sipswitch (unfortunately I'm not yet allowed to post links...)

Hi all,
As a practice project for Android developing I created an app that enables you to add custom locations to the sense weather application. I think some of you noticed that the weather app supports adding only a few cities, mostly the larger cities of a particular state/province. This is because the htc app makes use of a static database that has only around 3600 locations world-wide. This app can add almost any city to that database.
This could be done already, but the method was quite time-consuming and error-prone.
With this app, you just have to search for your city, optionally edit the pre-filled fields for name, state and country and you can add it to the htc weather database. The correct weather code is obtained from the web, for both US and non-US cities. The correct timezone is selected from the database, sometimes you have a choice there as well. Also, the weather application of htc is restarted after adding, so the change is immediately visible.
The app needs root access and an internet connection to work, and you should have htc sense with the weather app installed. I tested it only on Sensation (with sense 3.6) but it should work for sense 2.x up on any htc device.
Enjoy!

Update (19-4-13): New version. It should work on most ROMs now, it doesn't rely on the command line that much.
Update (31-7-12): New version. It checks the hostfile now, and removes the accuweather host from it if necessary. Works great with AdFree and AdAway. Also, to better work with the clock application in sense 4, the geographic position of a city is added to the database. It will search for the coordinates automatically, but you can also manually add them. Enjoy!
Update (16-7-12): Problem occurs on devices having an addblocker that changes the host file (/etc/hosts) installed, like AdAway or AdFree. They add the line "127.0.0.1 netweather.accuweather.com" to /etc/hosts, removing that line or changing back to stock host file solves the issue. See this post for more details.
Update: There seems to be a problem with the server the app connects to, it is not accessible from some (many?) countries or phones. I haven't found a solution yet.
Please try this link with your internet connection (so wifi or mobile), if you get a xml file back, this app should work. If it doesn't, but you can access the site above, please let me know.
Please let me know if it works as well, as well as your country, so I can try to figure out what's going on.
Update (7-7-12): You now have the possibility to manually add a city through its location code.

Dont work
Installed on my Sensation running PkMn 4.5 ROM.
SuperSU never registrate the app, so i set SuperSU promt to "Grant".
Searched for my city here in Denmark "Klarup" but it didn't find anything. I then searched for "Copenhagen" but it didn't finde that either.
Turned WiFi on but the app dont finde any city at all :-(
I install the app but it cant find any city.
I have root access and I also make a restart. Is something more that I have to do?
I can find and add Klarup, Denmark with the app. You got to have a working internet connection to search for cities.
To both jkolner and l_themis, does it say "no location found" or does it say nothing at all?

Same for me, "No location found" with open wifi
It seems like it just does not make the connection it should.
When I have time, I'll add more connection error handling to distinguish between not finding a city and a connection problem.
That doesn't solve the problem though, its weird. Can you verify that under app-info in your system settings, this app has full internet access?
It has full internet access and Wifi is connected.
Please try the new version, included in the OP. I simplified the search part a bit using a different http request, maybe it works in this way.
I will try to make some more improvements sometime soon, this was what I could do right now.
Didn't work with the new one either.
It seems like an encoding issue, I forgot to encode the location properly in the new version and got the errors myself. I updated the application once again.
However, this will probably fix nothing for you guys, I will look at it in more detail sometime soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.
No problem my friend, take your time. For me is something very useful so it will be perfect if it finally works!
This looks good. Is there anyway to get the sense weather lock screen to change from current to a different city?
Tried new version can not find any cities.even London, bristol, paris

Still not working mate. Now it shows me connection error and ask me do you have internet connection? I don't think it will work.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
It has worked perfectly here though, up to now (even tried it on a desire HD yesterday). Is this site accessable from your place?
I also get network error (israel)
I cant access the site you gave above
Well, so much for a solution then. Apparently the site above is not accessable for some countries. The search for cities uses it.
So at least it works in the Netherlands, and I think it will work in the US as well.
I still find it rather strange, it must be some legal issue.
In any case, I could not foresee this problem.
A solution would be to setup a forward portal, but that's a little much. I'll try to look for some trick to access that site.
Hello,
I'd like to figure out a way to use Llama to send an HTTP GET request to my home automation system. In particular I wish to turn the power to the charger on and off based on battery percent as this tablet will be mounted on a wall. Since Llama seems to require opening of the browser to do this, I'm assuming this would require another app. My question is, does one exist? I just want a shortcut that will execute a HTTP request in a completely invisible fasion. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hello,
I have the same request. Do you find a solution?

Yes. I wrote my own little app that will create shortcuts. It's not in the Play store but I could try to send it to you if you'd like.
I find a solution with the app Tasker. This app could send an Http request but i have other issue. The better way will be to make my own app. If you could send me your version, it will be a great help for starting.
(Sorry for my English)

I just sent you an email with the apk attached. I just downloaded the Tasker trial and wasn't super impressed. Perhaps if it were free I would've made use of it but I enjoyed the opportunity to learn a little about Android development. What was your issues with Tasker?
Let me know if my app works for you.
Hello !
I'm also looking for a similar solution.
I use Llama and I need to update my Android GPS location through a HTTP POST.
I really don't want to use tasker... Do you have clues for me ? I'm able if needed to create an APK.
Thanks !

The little app I wrote is only designed to make a static HTTP request. In other words, it won't be able to read any Llama variables or anything like that. However, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to modify the app to support what you're looking to do. I could send you the source code privately if you promise to send me back your changes.
@mrceolla Could you send me the app and source code. I shall send back any changes I do.
"Share files over wifi" (ShareBox) it's a new free tool app aimed to easily share files over wifi through web browser
When using ShareBox, you will not have anymore let friends and relatives take your device to show them your photos or videos. They will see them through their own device, be it android, iphone, windows, blackberry or linux, through their web browsers. And they will only see what you want to show in a quick, comfortable way and simultaneously!
As other devices begin to connect you will immediately know what they are watching through the informative Sharebox log list.
Get it at Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.b6dev.sharebox
Features that makes this app special:
Share the files through browser, so you can get them from any device that has a web browser be it android, iphone, ipad, windows, blackberry or linux.
Only shares and shows the files previously selected.
May be used with wifi networks, own wifi hotspot and also on phone 3g connections.
When ShareBox server is on, you are presented with a URL link to see what others are going to see.
As other devices begin to connect you will know what they are watching through the log list.
Very useful for photo shows as it presented by default as gallery, but also has a list mode that may be more suitable for other kind of files.
Go and try it!
Anyone to provide feedback or suggestions for this application, please?
Came here cause I saw the app in the XDA portal, seems simple enough and ultra handy for the people who really struggle to send files. :good:
I also saw this on the XDA portal. Looks like a great idea; I have to try it out.
A few questions:
1) How do you connect over data (e.g. 3g)?
EDIT: I see the server status page has a WAN IP as well. Do we need to do any port forwarding or anything like that?
2) Can you download the files as well, or just view them?
3) Is there a way to add whole folders?
Hmm I like the concept !
(Not yet tried app - wishing you had a direct download link to fileshare service along with G-Store link)
Here's what I would like to be able to do and hoping your app can handle it.
Share a folder, then view / download those files through the browser.
Guessing http //device.ip/share

Portforwarding is common for any server, u might need to do it if connect to a router
I think u can start the server on mobile network directly
Sorry for my bad English...
Sent from my HTC Desire 200 using XDA Premium 4 Mobile app
Yeah I managed to download the app, with VPN & G'Play..
Nope, I cant add a whole folder.
Every-time I attempt to look at settings *CRASH*
I added a screenshot to share, it shows in PC browser as link, but wont download /open
Looking at path tells me why

'ictures' ? Really
I would rather use port 80 or 8080..
hence why I 'try' open settings, after tapping settings, about 6 seconds later. *CRASH*
The app works perfectly on my Oneplus One, it does exaclty what it says and it saved me from a lot of trouble.
Thanks!
Nice idea and works.
maybe add themes for the Web interface.
let me know if u need any help with that.

The connection is made through ip sockets, so you may connect not only through wifi but also through all ip addresses your mobile may has, at the time you turn on your ShareBox

Yes of course! If you do it from your mobile web browser keep your finger pressed over the target file till the contextual menu shows up. If done through computer browser use your secondary mouse button. Easy!

Adding whole folders may be done through workarounds (using third party file managers or file compression) but is not yet "officially" supported

Yes, you may change the port used through settings menu, but restriction to use ports below 1024 is keeped. As stated before, please report your crashes with as much information as possible.

Yes, I did via G android.
I will sit down later and give you more information
But, dinner comes first
Summary
Samsung Tab 3 10" - Tap Settings - a delay, screen stay same - then after 6 seconds, maybe bit longer, app closes with msg box (every time)
Would it be possible to enable nfc "sharing"?
For example, if I have sharebox opened and running on a certain ip and port, and I tap another nfc device, then the other device's default browser would open up, already displaying the sharebox url.
Kinda like I can share a web url or maps location via android beam, but this time the beam wouldnt be between two identical apps, but between sharebox and the default browser of the other device.
Cheers!

At first sight it seems that it should be possible if both devices were running ShareBox app with this feature implemented. Will have to study...

Hey no problem, I'll just update again..
I dont mind reporting bugs..
What I really need though, would be an app which can share a folder.
(Not just an interface that lets me share all the files in the folder quickly)
Something which shares 'that folder' live..
So if folder contents update 'live', refreshing the page will reflect the changes, much like a web-server would
If I try to add a cloud pic (I click add file, select stock kitkat gallery, click on a picasa / g+ image) the app force closes.
Can cloud pics be added? I dont think that nowadays people keep more than a few recently took photos on their device, both for memory and sync / backup reasons...
Hello people,
I'm looking for a app but can't find it anywhere yet.
The app that was the closest to what i need is SignMyPad.
But this is to difficult.
What it has to do is; Open a (not fillable) PDF - Ask for my Name - Ask for my Signature (handwritten) then it has to put that 2 things on the down-right corner (maybe customable by settings or something (not ever time)) - then it has to put it to my mail program (and if possible fill in the reciever email in mail program, so i only have to click send (email is 1 time setting, not every time)).
Maybe someone here can tell me where i can find this, or if it is even possible to get it created or something.
Thank you very Much.
