Good Day everyone,
We would like to introduce our first widget here to gather feedback from all the android user/developers in the forum.
Basically the concept is to provide a huge/big contact widget to make it earsier for user to make phone call under certain condition. (driving, or fast call using single hand). Beside that, this we also provide the features for user to choose their own skin/frames of preferences.
Below are the official description in the Market:
Create Simple Life - Add your favourite contact to your homescreen.
With this, a call or SMS to your favourite contact is just a touch away.
Boring with the dull Android call widget?
We provide you the option to choose your own preference of skin for your widget.
Feature Details:
1. Add 4 favourite contacts to homescreen
2. Option to choose either CALL, SMS or both action for ONE Touch event.
3. Option to choose your own preference of skin for the widget. (Random features also included)
4. Now you can make a phone call with 'speaker on' by just clicking on your contact.
As we still new here, we cannot include any screenshot and download link in this forum. Sorry.
You can download it by searching for "Contactz" in the market.
If you like it, please support us by giving your high rate in Google Market, recommending to your friends and forums.
On the other hand, we are looking forward to receiving your feedback and comment,we will keep working and make improvement from current version.
Please reply to this thread if there is any issue. We really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
Hi All,
Just as an update, we had just release a new version which have features as below:
1. Option to choose "Call with Speaker On".
2. Support contact with multiple phone numbers.
3. New features to crop contact photo to prevent unwanted image scaling.
Please email us if you have any issue

I haven't tried it but it sounds like a great widget! Thanks! I'll be sure to keep my eye on this one just in case I need it.
Pretty good.
Works well on my HTC. Pretty useful when driving.
Keep it up!
Hi All,
February 3rd, is known as Spring Festival or Chinese New Year for the Chinese. In order to celebrate it, we release four very special and unique skins for Contactz.
Hope you all like it.

No go on HTC Desire with Oxygen RC7
Couldn't get it to work on my HTC Desire with Oxygen RC7 and LauncherPro Plus.
The widget seems to work OK but when I click "Done" there's no widget added to my home screen.
Only thing I would say is that when choosing the skin I wanted it clear so I chose no skin, but there's still a border around the widget. Also there's no option to change the colour of the contactz part to bring the options up, pretty hard to see black font on a black background. Another option you could release is an option to delete their names and just have the contacts pictures.

Nice app even nothings new. I dont like the skins. Some more minimal wil be appreciated.
The icon are to much big so this cause problems when I resize the widget.
1,93Mb are really to much for a simple widget.
I think that with small image contact space and nice interface it can be better.
For now I use Sense again.
Nice, useful!

Hi MrFrem82,
Thanks for the feedback. Your i5500 is running on Eclair 2.1 right?
Our widget was set to support SDK 1.5 and above, so basically it should apple to support for your phone.
Thanks

Hi kroogar,
This widget require the whole screen, so if there is not enough empty space on the screen, the widget will fail to be added.
Hope this will help

Hi SxcKieranGrr,
Thanks for the feedback. We will look into this new options.
Love this widget... thank you so much. Especially love the animation.
I'd like to make a request for consideration.... For those contacts with multiple numbers can a box like the "Call & SMS Option" with those numbers be displayed for selection? Up to 3 numbers would be great if screen estate permits.
Thanks again for an awesome widget.
Been looking for a widget like this!
Awesome widget! Works great on my Dell streak. I've been looking for a contacts widget like this with the single tap execute along with the eye candy. So far the "no frame" and "default frame" are my fav. My least fav frame is the "iphone". lol, it looks ok.
Suggestions:
-Create the option for a single contact w/frame as a 2x2 widget.
-More frame options to choose from. Maybe some other popular phone frames besides the iphone.
Thanks again.
Would like to try but it's hidden from my SGS Vibrant in the actual Market app. When I attempt install from the web based market, it says that my device is incompatible. Oh well.
Couldn't find it on android market. From web market was unable to download. using wildfire cm7. is it possible to upload the apk?
thank you guys. Nice app and love to try.
Hi All,
First of all, thanks for all the support and feedback.
We will work harder to made the application better and move to the next level.
As for now, we want to share with you all about our new released "HoneyComb" series of skin. We have Angry-HoneyComb and 2 others skins.

Hey guys! Long time reader, first time Android poster. Love the community!
Getting right down to it, I'm visually impaired but not blind. Some aspects of the Evo are just too small for me to read. Coming from an Iphone, I got spoiled with there three finger double tap zoom accessibility feature. I'm looking for something similar or even just some way to increase the font size of everything. I ran across this app http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/org.pbxes.fontsize/ but the comments state that it doesn't work for Evo.
Anyways. this has been something sought after by many people. I've been reading everything I can find searching Google and all I find are people wanting it, but not getting it. I'm willing to throw some cash at a developer to get this going. If it can be made an app I'm sure it will sell extremely well in the market, even if it is just Evo specific. If it has to be some kind of custom ROM there would still be a lot of people using it.
Sorry if something like this has been requested before, but I spent a lot of time searching and I didn't find anything useful. If there is already a solution, please PLEASE tell us.
Hey, hopefully this helps you out. Go on the market, and look for dolphin text sizer. It says you have to also download the dolphin web browser [both free], but the text sizer should be right up your alley. And just literally looked it up for ya.
That is kind of neat. But.... it's not quite what I was looking for because this only works while in the browser. I'm looking to be able to zoom the entire screen and then pan it left and right. Or..... increase the font size of everything, including icons and contacts, timestamps... everything.
Here is a youtube video of the three finger zoom thing that the iphone does if you havent seen it before. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1ZzDffl0sQ&NR=1 It really does a little more than he shows but you might get the idea.
Try Ideal Accessibility in the market. Kinda like a grid arrow pointing down. It profess having some good apps, but still looking.
Take a look at an app called lcddensity. You can use it to make everything on your screen either bigger or smaller. It resets on reboot, but you can make the effect permanent. You can also try changing your font to something a bit bigger than the standard font.

I made a app these days and now i published it on market
it is called ScreenZooM. Search for it (icon is a magnifier with a big green +)
i will atach a qrcode image
i can't post links coz i have 4 posts
Awesome!
Haha! WoW! Yeah 1 year later! This is pretty cool! I am having a little trouble getting the shake to work tho. It works once, then it wont work again. I'm running Decks 2.3.7 Stablistic on my evo, and I selected "custom" in the app.
But seriously, thanks! I thought this request was long dead and buried.
maybe i put sensitivity too small... and you need to shake harder?
You can try and the stock mode, maybe works better
cool app! Not something that I would probably use, but still, very cool work. thanks.

I made a notepad similar to iPhone in appearance but more features. You can find it in the market by searching for notepad classic or here is a link:
https://market.android.com/details?...ns.app.notesclassiclite&feature=search_result
I'll test it out. I'll post again tomorrow with an opinion.
Seems to be a good app. It crashed once when I first installed but I think it was my phone I had a lot of apps open. Also note that I'm on cyan 7.03 with s2e installed. Also the app has ads but I like the placement it does not interfere with the app.

This works pretty good. I think the text color shouldnt be black though. Seems a bit darker than everything else. Also would be better to have date on the left, aligned with the body text. The time and date blend together a bit since they are the same color and size, but i think just separating them might work better. I think you should change the color of the home screen, its really close to the paper color, and it could be really cool if it looked like a notepad cover. The only other thing i can think of is changing the grey header to a yellow thats darker than the paper background. Might make it look more integrated. Changing text size might be cool in a next version...
But so far its a good simple app. Well done.
This a pink theme. I got some of the images from the ping GenerationX theme by D3StRoY found here. However most of the images and apps are my work.

My wife is really loving this theme! She does have 4 suggestions:
1. Make the locked screen button pink instead of the redish color.
2. In the Call log of the dialer, the phone numbers for each contact show up as orange. She would like them changed to pink.
3. Make the clock pink in the status/notification bar instead of the current grey.
4. In the default browser when you load up a webpage, she was wondering if the bar that shows the webpage loading progress could be Pink instead of orange? I told her this probably isn't possible, but then again it might be. I have no clue
The locked screen button color changed is the main thing she wanted, let me know if you need screenies for any of these. Your theme let me convince my wife that she should root her phone to customize it further, so thanks again!!
looks good! gonna get this for the gf

Haha, I figured you would need them. I was trying to take the lazy way out. Sorry I got a little scribble happy on the call log page, let me know if you need me to do it again. What phone do you have? A fascinate? Pretty nice of you to do this without owning the phone.
I just forgot a couple other things she told me. And one thing I think would be cool...
1. Change the 4g logo in the status bar to pink
2. When you select an icon, it has a orange border. Would be nice if it were pink
3. I was wondering how hard it is to remove the location icon. If all the other things are pink, it would be nice if that just went away. If that's hard to do, maybe make the pink so it fits in with everything else?
edit. Donation sent, really appreciate what you do! Trying to make my wife like android as much as I do.

Hi guys, looking for some feed back on my app. based on website sleepytimer.com
I've seen 2 apps on droid marketplace but all the comments I read complain that there is no alarm.
So my app provides the same features plus adding alarms. Be gentle
[edited] 10/12 now on marketplace (free)
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.sleepytimer
This looks really good. I'll test it out and tell you what I think...
EDIT: This app is amazing. This will be really useful for me since I hate waking up tired and groggy.
I am making some small tweaks to the app as well as making a better icon and will upload it soon.
EDIT2: I finished the small edits! Check it out!
Hah, you noticed my typo Choice a mode hehe.
Can you tell me what else you did? I already had a revision underway and an icon+splash screen worked out
I kind of like your icon though too, I just thought of an interesting hybrid. Taking my icon and then instead of eyeballs, I'll put sunglasses on him kind of like some Oakley oilrigs and instead of a regular dark lense it will be the alarm LED with a time.

All I really did was changed the icon and fixed typos and stuff to make it look more professional. I also added some stuff just in case you want an 'about' tab when you press the menu button on your phone.
it's live in the market place now, I updated the op with the url. Feedback appreciated.
can u post the update apk here?I can't download from market.thanks
