[APP][UPDATE 10/21/2010]DashBoard V6 (formerly CarMode)

[APP][UPDATE 10/21/2010]DashBoard V6 (formerly CarMode) - Android Apps and Games

CarMode is now DashBoard! And is now available in the Market! Search "DashBoard" (without the quotes) by Nidus Network.
I'm not getting any info from you guys regarding the Action, Package and Class names for each of your phones/ROMs. I can do this myself but it will take me weeks for there are LOTS of phones/ROMs/versions out there. So to fix the force close issues, I've decided to make the users input the apps themselves by typing in their package and class names. Until I get those info I need, there isn't really any other easier way.
Visit the huge link just below this paragraph for the different packages/classes.
So, how do I make this app work?
Easy Method
1) Install LauncherPro from the Market
2) Go to your phone's home (desktop), press and hold a blank space
3) Navigate to Shortcuts > Activities
4) Look for the app you want to add in DashBoard
5) It will only show you the package class. Most of the time, the package name will be what you mostly see that's familiar with all the package class of that certain app. Write down possible package names/class names (package name is e.g. com.android.settings and class name goes something like com.android.settings.Settings)
6) Fill the info you got in the fields under the Settings in the DashBoard app
7) If you can't find the icon for your app, please request it here and I will make one
You can find some of these by visiting http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8654315&postcount=35. Also, share what works and what doesn't for you.
Hard Method - More chances of success
1) Install Log Collector from the Market (FREE)
2) Run the app or behavior you want to add
3) Open Log Collector and send the log to your e-mail, or post it here if you need help finding the thing you want to run
4) Look for terms such as com.android.contacts/com.android.contacts/DialtactsActivity
5) That's your clue. Package name is com.android.contacts while class is com.android.contacts.DialtactsActivity
6) Input that to the fields in DashBoard
7) If you can't find the icon for your app, please request it here and I will make one
If I have more time, I will post a thorough step-by-step guide on how to add app shortcuts. Thanks!
App Description
AT THE MOMENT, THIS IS FOR POWER-USERS ONLY OR THOSE WHO ARE WILLING TO LEARN
Introducing DashBoard, formerly CarMode, an alternative to Car Home. Basically what it does is it shows you huge buttons to important apps that you might use when driving a vehicle with less distraction than manually waking your phone, opening the app drawer, etc. Unlike Car Home, this app will give you more flexibility and more settings to poke around with (even better in future updates).
*NEW* Driving Mode with Handsfree Auto-respond and Text-To-Speech! When activated, DashBoard sends a text message to any person that texts you while Driving Mode is ON and reads the message afterwards, completely handsfree! Like all TTS apps, you need to download TTS Service Extended from the Market and set the speech speed to your liking.
*SOON* Car Locator
Looks best with MDPI devices (320x480 resolution, e.g. Droid Eris).
As of now, this app is currently in Beta phase. What you see right now does not reflect how it will look like and work in the future. I'm working hard to make changes and add more features. Currently NOT in the Market but available on GetJar.com (updates appear within 24 hours in GetJar.com)

Thank you Please test it out and leave your comments/suggestions so I can improve the app. I'm currently working on being able to choose what buttons go to what position, etc.

Thanks! Will try this on my Legend on the way home.

Briliant idea. Since it's rainy these days here in Athens and I use my car insted of my motorbike, I can give it a try.
Fisrt impresions.
Display button gives me a Force Close. Which app do you call?
Shazam, Navigation, FC too, but once you get "settings" to work will be fine.
You need also to add a "delete note" button.
You should also try higher resolution if it's possible in AppInventor.
Tested (short of..) on X10i with Android 1.6 (ya ya I know... still waiting SE...).
Thanks.

Get FC on Dialer which would be 1 of my main uses.
In landscape mode, I still have 2x3 icons and have to scroll down to find the other icons.

Nice idea, The CarHome app from Google won't let me choose to use other Navigation Software. It would be great if CarMode lets users chose which navigation software they want to use.

bugs
i'm trying it on SE x10 mini (e10i), android 1.6 last SE official italian rom.
the app starts, but taping on the DIALER, MESSAGES, CALL LOG, CONTACTS or DISPLAY buttons, the app crashes and i've to tap on "terminate" (app disappear and i'm back on android desktop).
i've also tried SHAZAM, NAVIGATION, VOICE SEARCH and other app buttons... works fine.
I think that SE'd modified a lot the platform and calls to DIALER and so on are not the same of the "regular" android.
hope b usefull

What else should I add? The less the better 'cause I don't want people to be distracted too much when driving! Please do suggest! If you're familiar with App Inventor and is good at it, may I ask some advice from you? Send me a PM. Thank you!

If I may, something that I think Car Home from google is lacking, and would be a great feature for your program:
When I enter my car, I have to put my phone on the charger, enable bluetooth, enable GPS and start my navigation software. I think this is quite a hassle, and should be shortened.
Car home has a nice feature: when the paired carkit is found, it starts up. This could be so much more though. What I'm proposing is the following:
1) I put the phone on the carkit.
2) Carmode detects a charger, and activates bluetooth for 30 seconds.
3a) Carmode doesn't find the paired carkit, and deactivates bluetooth again OR
3b) Carmode finds the carkit, fires up the GPS, and launches it's GUI with the big buttons.
4) I remove the phone from the carkit, Carmode detects this, and shuts down bluetooth and GPS connections, and programs launched from it's GUI and the GUI itself.
I have no idea how much of this is actually possible, and how much is already there, but this would be awesome, and I would pay for an app that does this, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Awesome work! This is a great app and seems to be getting better every day.
I haven't installed it yet but the one thing that I can see as a possibility is to add a "voice note" instead of typing. The typing thing is a no no while driving but if you could speak a note and play it back later it could be a big time saver.
Keep up the good work.

Oh my, force closes are bad I never thought about the differences in actions/classes/packages in every ROM/version/phone.
I based it on a Froyo ROM:
Display: com.android.settings.display
Dialer: com.android.contacts.DialtactsActivity
Navigation: com.google.android.maps.driveabout.app.DestinationActivity
Shazam: com.shazam.android.Tagging (straight to the Tagging, not the splash screen, saves a couple of seconds)
For the high resolution, I'm currently working on it

Brilliant idea! But I think , right now, AI has a lot of limitations. It still can't detect phone's charging state and could not toggle GPS on/off I'll find a way though so just tune in I like that idea

Oh, I'll add that feature in the Notes page too
Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions! I'm so happy If you guys have LauncherPro as a home replacement app, could you guys check the Activites (long press the desktop > Shortcuts > Activities), and check what calls (e.g. com.android.settings, etc) the:
Navigation
Dialer
Settings
Display
Maps
Contacts
Shazam
.. and whatever you seem is good to add (you could also take a screenshot, much easier, whatever suits you)
Again, thank you so much! I'll be working hard to fix the problems.
Summary of things to fix/add:
Force close issues (need help from you guys, check my message above )
Fix landscape layout
Voice input for note-taking
Choose own apps to launch
HDPI layout fixes
And one more thing, can you guys take a screenshot of how CarMode appears in your phone, especially for high resolution devices (greater than 320x480 screens) so I'll know what parts to fix? 'Cause I only have the Eris (MDPI) to try on. Gracias!

Works great
Works great on the samsung moment. looking forward to future update when you can change the order of what and maybe some more quick launch options
THANKS

Oh, no force closes/wrong redirections in Samsung Moment? That's good news!
Yup, I'm excited too

lol, if this isn't in the market then what in the world did I just download?
Gonna go get the right file now. heh

LOL... There is a Car Mode (found on market) and CarModeV3 (this very app we are talking about).
@xr4v3nx, maybe you should change your app name since there is already one on the market. Think about changing the app icon too (that's my opinion). It looks awful on X10. Maybe because of the higher resolution.
Good work. Keep on.

Whoa whoa there's a CarMode in the Market?
It appears that it's not visible in my Market.
Yeah, I should change it and the icon too

crashes on my samsung vibrant!
Great app, loved the idea i would use it if it didnt keep FC on me eveytime i click on something on it like dialer or anything else? Any ideas why its FC on me?

*sigh*.... someone needs to make something like this for Winmo......

Give him more info! What phone are you using? What firmware? Maybe an error log would help.
Anyways, great looking app. I'll download it tonight and fool around with it and let you know what I think.

Oh, like what miztaken1312 said, please provide more info. The probable cause is that the intent/action/package/class I placed was different for your phone. ROM and phone model?

Thanks, attachments wasn't working for me probably because I had some problems with javascript on my browser.
Now it's better

Thanks for this great app!
The ability to play multiple simultaneous sounds is a must have feature.
On my unmodified HTC Incredible running 2.2 the text is larger than the horizontal bar it is supposed to fit in, so the bottom of the text gets cut off. Or maybe the horizontal area is too small vertically.

Row had accidentally fixed height. Also noticed that board got unreadable when using line break.
Thanks

Doing some relatively bad thread necroing here, but I don't know that I want to create a whole new thread just for a suggestion or two...
A couple bugs (at least on my Samsung Galaxy S running stock Eclair):
When the screen shuts off from idling and you have a graphical soundboard open, the app crashes. This also happens if you lock the screen by way of the power button. This happened with the graphical Soundboard I was working with, as well as with a brand new, freshly created graphical soundboard (no sounds added, completely default settings). This does not seem to happen with a List-style Soundboard, or when you're up one level looking at the list of soundboards you've created.
When selecting files for either new sounds or for the graphics of those sounds, the font is too large for the row height and gets cut off at the bottom of any text. It's not unreadable, but the individual rows are hard to select. In actuality, the font size is probably okay, and the row height just needs to be increased.
Some suggestions:
In a Graphical soundboard, have an auto-align function like the main app window; something where you can set up how many rows and columns you want, and then arrange the sounds by that layout, in a grid-style layout.
Options for both Auto-arrange and manual arrange of the above function.
Create new graphical soundboard objects in a fresh space away from other items, so you're not creating new ones on top of each other. Possibly requires auto-arrange to be turned on.
Allow a default setting for the Name, Image, and Sound settings for a particular Soundboard so you don't have to set each one every time you make a new soundboard item.
I just want to say how AWESOME this app is. It lets me create EXACTLY the kind of soundboard I want, with a background pic, images for each sound, individual volume settings, you can play sounds overlapping or choose not to... It's GREAT! ...I just wish it was a bit easier to create multiple soundboard objects, and didn't crash from graphical soundboards. XD
Hope this is helpful!

It's not necroing. This thread is alive as long as I am developing this app. I'm developing this app until I state that I am not developing this app (on this thread).
Also please don't expect me to update this app if there are no suggestions or bug reports.
All posts to this thread are most welcome.

This is exactly why there are "Duplicate sound" feature on sound options. If you are sure that this feature doesn't fit your purposes please inform me and I will consider making "default sound" feature.
Notice that duplicating sound makes it exact duplicate, so you may not notice that there are two sounds one on top of the other.
I have both bugs fixed by now. I will get back to your other suggestions when I have more time. I will be updating my application asap.

I think that particular one was just a "User Education" issue. XD I haven't tried seriously playing around with it yet since I'm at work (and already spent enough time the other day messing with it while at work, LOL), but even so.
For me anyway, my suggestions were just things I felt would make the experience even better, but since it's already GREAT, they're just kinda "meh, whenever you get to them." Very happy to see 1.07 so quickly though to fix the issues, I'm just beaming now, this app is entirely too awesome.

Well I appreciate your suggestions (and bug reports too) since I have ran out of ideas what I should add. Sure I could figure something out if I really tried but I'm not sure if that would make this app better or worse.

need help posting soundboard on market
Hello I used Mikuz unlimited soundboard app creator to make a custom soundboard, i got everything created and sounds assigned and icons, and the project name is in green, and now I am not sure how to post it up for people to share and try out for free any help would be appreciated.
can this be uploaded to the market? or how does that step work?

Make sure to read "Sharing board" topics on help.
It can not be uploaded to the market.
To share your board on internet I would suggest you to make it zip file on computer or on your Android device.
(Make sure to zip folder named as your board, not content of it, to make this simpler for receivers.)
You can upload it to Dropbox (you can use Get Shareable Link feature), Multiupload or similar file sharing services.
You can also send it directly to friend using MSN etc.
If you are sure everything on it is 100% legal, you can post it here and ask me to include it on 1st post. (I will upload it to my server if I accept it.)

Mikuz,
This is a great app...really like it.
You asked for suggestions, so here are a few:
Include the ability to pause or stop a sound by touching the sound a second time, instead of having to hit settings, then pause.
Include the ability to create a "stop all sounds" button.
Include the ability to have different images for each state of the sound (stopped or idle, playing, paused)
Include ability to set additional sound preferences per soundboard (like a preference to pause/play on corresponding clicks, or stop sound on second click)
Anyway, thanks again for this cool app...I really, really, really like that I can use it to play entire songs, and not just tiny files.

Good suggestions, thanks.
I'm wondering if it would be better to select if you want to always play, pause or stop sound on second click per sound rather than per board.

I think you mean like a normal sound but it would stop/pause all playing sounds. Good idea.

Hi there, I was looking for an App like this a long time and now finally found yours meeting most of my need, so thanks a lot!
I played with it a little yesterday and came up with some ideas I would like to mention here in case it could be easily implemented.
First I was wondering if the already existing Dropbox-Implementation could be used for importing sound and images as well. Now I would put sounds into Dropbox, open Dropbox on Android, chose what I want dowloaded for the Soundboard, switch back to the Soundboard and then for each file click through to the Dropbox-Folder to add it... Using the internal Dropbox-connection this could be done much easier and faster... (Or am I missing something already there?)
Second about importing Images: I would like a button to automatically set the size to the original dimensions of the image instead of having to tap these in manually...
I was very happy to find, that I could switch to landscape, as I use a tablet that is not very nice to handle in portrait-mode... Really nice App
Ah, and are there any Soundboards shared by users yet?

Sorry it took some time to answer but I'm quite busy and probably won't develop until january. (Though you never know if I get excited enought about it.)
If you want to copy a file to a board using the current Dropbox implementation in the UnlimitedSb then you should: upload a board to the Dropbox, copy a file to the board's Dropbox folder and then download the board from the Dropbox.
The current implementation is ment to have a copy of a board in the Dropbox. Copying a file is possible but not handy.
Browsing the files in the Dropbox to copy a file to a board folder is an interesting idea. I don't use the official Dropbox app much but I think that it should be able to handle the same thing decently.
I will see what I can do when I have the time. I should also see if I can improve the Dropbox support at some point. I wasn't able to do everything I wanted since I was using an early version of the Dropbox client.
Nope, haven't heard of any publicly shared boards yet.

Good news soundboard enthusiastics, there's a huge udate coming!
I will rebrand this app since Android 4 will be required and the update will really impove this app and make it more useful.
It will take some time until it can be released. I feel like I should release it already since it's so much better than the current version but I really need to make the experience complete for a good new start.
You will notice when the new version is out if you take a look at the 1. post. Now let's all make sure we got some sandwitch prepared on our desks.
PS. If you figure out a good name for a soundboard app you can PM or email me. Just make sure it's something rather under 10 than 20

This is made easier in Boarder. You can put a sound to Apps/Boarder/<board name> directory in Dropbox and then download it using Dropbox implementation for Boarder.
In Unlimited Soundboards everything that doesn't exist in board directory in Dropbox would be removed in download operation. This is optional in Boarder and there will be dialog promoting the cleaning operation.

Not sure If you refer to the last value of dimensions or bitmap size as the original dimensions.
However, I changed the values above text fields to represent the original size of the bitmap. I added a button after the fields for reverting the size to what it was when the dialog was opened.
This change will be included in following releases of Boarder.

I'm planning to make it possible to choose hybrid mode (portrait and landscape). Hybrid board would react to changing the orientation of your device in listening mode.
Landscape and portrait would, however, be completely separated and only share the same board folder and listening session. This means both must be maintained by their own. There could be feature for copying sounds from orientation to other, making maintaining a bit easier.
This will not be included in a while and can be expected in Boarder after release in Android Play.

The Steam mobile app is definitely due an update, the last update was released in March 2012, but I don't see that changing for a long time.
The current interface for the Steam app is terrible, low quality images all over the show, it's a direct port from the iOS app, and that most certainly
does not follow the Android design guidelines. If Valve won't fix and update the app, who will?
I will.
This App is a modification to the official app from Valve on the Play Store. This mod completely changes the user interface from the ugly interface
that is currently in use, to a more pleasing interface known as "Holo". The visuals of this app follow the Android design guidelines as closely as it
possibly can without having to recode the entire app.
As well as this app being a visual update, the app also comes with speed increases, stability and general smoothness all the way throughout the app.
The standard app uses images for the text input box, send button and many more features of the app; using images for assets such as this contribute
to slowing down the speed of the app due to there being more files to read from. I have removed the need for many images in this app by moving the assets
from using images to using official Android code (Assets such as chat text input and the send button).
Every single visual asset of this app has been changed and rebuilt using the Android guidelines. The action bar is no longer an ugly bar with diagonal pin stripes
with a gradient overlay, it's now a single colour Android action bar. The chat bubbles are no longer obnoxious low quality bubbles, they're now high quality boxes
similar to that of the boxes used for Hangouts. All these visual changes and more in the app.
On the official app, scrolling through web pages (such as people's profiles) was painful, scrolling would take forever with a huge noticeable lag on every scroll,
making tasks such as viewing your games list unbearable.
To install this app, you must first of all uninstall the official app from the Play Store if you currently have that on your device.
Once the app is uninstalled, you can then install this version.

Really impressive

Looks great! Really needed this, I couldn't take much more of the default app's appearance.
If only Valve would do something about it sooner

Would it be possible to drag the side panel menu in from the side, and hide it away with another swipe? Similar to the new Play Store style?
Other than that amazing job!

In the current state the app is in, I cannot. However, I am working on a separate app which will replace this, that app will be full holo and be on the Play Store.

How exactly do you modify an app like this? Is there a general overview/tutorial somewhere?
God I would love this done to the Rdio app.

There are various programmes which will decompile an app, once you've decompiled the app, you will be left with the apps source code.
Once you've got the source code, you can start modifying images, XML files and Java files. Once you've done, you can recompile it, usually using the same programme as the one you used to decompile, although the signature will be different

Oh my god oh my god oh my god THANK YOU! I have been waiting for such an update for aaaages. I've posted the link for a few of my Steam friends and they're testing it out - here's what we discovered.
I found a first bug and a thing or two which can be reverted:
- If you have pending messages, touching the number near the name doesn't open the chat. I need to touch the name, then touch chat.
- The message boxes used to be gray and blue, now everything is white. If you can add alternating colors, it'd be great!
Suggestions for expanding features (which may be impossible since decompiling doesn't give the original source, but asking can't hurt!)
- Do you think you can fix the notification system? Steam somehow doesn't push them like WhatsApp does.
- Steam group chats is something the app has lacked for forever!
- Ability to clear history of certain chats while leaving others untouched?

The bug with tapping the chat button not working is a long standing bug in the normal Steam app and is completely random whether it happens or not, I will continue to look into a fix for this.
Alternating colours were a thought while developing, however in the end it was decided to use completely white. The white is much more appealing than alternating colours, it also attempts to mimic the Hangouts chat boxes.
I assume you mean to have the notifications to include what the message is?
It would be incredibly hard to add this, but I may attempt this in the future.
This you already can, just enter a chat with a certain button, press on the overflow menu and press the button that drops down.

Is it possible for you to release the source code or is Steam's license prohibiting that? Just asking since my Steam account is too valuable to be put at risk. Now, I am not saying that OP is out here to steal peoples login info, but there's always a risk involved when you are logging in through a 3rd party app.
If only Valve would man up and update the damn app. It's been what, over 1½ years since they updated it, yes, it looks horrible, it's slow and barely usable.

The chat button not working problem just appeared for me for two people I usually speak with, didn't happen before, but I think that's a coincidence then.
If you could include the option for alternating colors, it'd be great. Google design choices aren't always perfect either and I like to see who's who at a glance.
With the notification, I mean that the notifications often don't get pushed but feel like they get fetched, since they often don't notify while the screen is off and when the screen is on it suddenly notifies again, having like a 20 minute delay. Though I think it's just Steam not using the Google Push Notifications, and this might be impossible for you to fix.
Attempting sounds great! Sadly I think you'd need cooperation from Steam somehow, I don't suppose there's a clear API and messing around in decompiled code isn't exactly very structured .
The clear history option was requested by a friend, they wanted to batch-remove some histories, though I can't really see the point of it. Might be that they have a lot of messages from lots of people.

Contact Searches will be nice i guess, really helps the elderly with their T9 recognition Gonna subscribe!

Its very good, very smooth. You hace just cleared my homescreen of lots of apps. The only thing left in my homescreen are Dial an App, Browser, Google Maps and Iron Man 3.
Aesthetic wise, I feel like it needs more improvement, but hey, thats only graphical part. the core part is flawless.
Suggestion: Perhaps user will be able to 'dial up' settings? You know, like going directly to the WiFi settings, or directly to storage setting to eject USB on the go, or more importantly turning on the USB debugging inside the developer mode. I'm sure this will be a major request. Although you should also add a setting whether to enable dialing up shorcut settings or not, not all people want it.
Suggestion: I guess you need to add a setting page if you want to corporate more feature, as most people want to use certain feature and dont want to use certain feature.
Idea: There are some people that hide certain app and dont want people to see it, I guess it will be a bad situation if your app shows their hidden app.

Great app, will they be a paid version? Not a fan of the ads, would give a couple bucks to get rid of them!
Sent from my Nexus 7

Yes there will be an ad-free paid version as soon as I integrate contact search and a few other features in the upcoming version.
Keep the feed backs coming, helps me make this better and better.

What about apps with space in their name? The current version dont have any space input.

I suppose you wouldn't have to type the words after the space as , as soon as you are type the first word i.e the one before the space you will have that app in the grid already, for example: typing "Google" will give u "Google Play", " Google Music" , "Google Music" etc already on scren making it easier to choose, also you can easily type just the word after the space like "Music" that will give you "Google Music" too thereby saving an additional button press for "space"
correct me if I am wrong.

Interesting app. I have a couple of suggestions on how to improve it more:
The app shouldn't show up in recent apps, as people will probably access it through a shortcut and use it to launch other apps
It would be better user experience if the dialer was drawn over your current app, instead of using your wallpaper as a background -- this would give a more fluid app launching and changing experience instead of the current feeling of being taken away from your current activity
It would be nice to be able to change the app icon grid and icon sizes -- some people will want fewer but bigger icons, some people will prefer longer list with smaller icons
Since there's quite a lot of screen space for listing the apps, you could implement (an optional) row of recently launched/recently used apps. I think a lot of users are really just switching between 4-5 most common apps and this would make the interaction faster.
In addition, there could be an option to pin a favorite app(s)
Lastly, it's not at all obvious how one can change the keypad colors (long-press on clear seems to do it), and you are left wondering if there are other settings available as well (like changing the grid size)
Like I said, the app looks great and works well too.

I wasn't aware, I'll have to check, however Dial an App is soon going to be a complete Dialer and a part of my upcoming Homescreen launcher, you can give it a try and see for yourself all the features. Your feedback will be appreciated.

You know, I'm a right handed. My phone screen size is 4.7 inch diagonal. The situation now is that, after there's only one app left in the screen, its all the way at the top left, which is quite a stretch for my thumb. You might even have problem with this yourself. So I was thinking maybe after one app has left, the app will be highlighted (somehow) and brought to the center, that would be better I think. or maybe you can just touch anywhere on the screen and it will launch that app. Or just add another button that will launch that one app left standing.
You konw, this reminds me of Ubuntu OS, which is quite similar. Maybe you take insperation from these? My point is, after a few letter, the app that you want might be the first app in the list, so you can just tap a button and it will launch the first app in the selection. Of course for me, I feel it will be better if the app selection there will have some sort of popularity calculation to determine which one comes first,kind of like when you type iin the address bar in Firefox, most frequently visited site will appear first in the list.

Awesome app. Saves you some time.

If you have like a hell lot of apps on your phone, this is the app the one you'd expect to save you some great amount of time. Would love to see further updates and appreciate your work. Subscribed.

Awesome app and a great idea! Can't wait for the paid version!
One small request - can you make a widget out of it? This would be an awesome full screen widget to replace my standard home screen (or maybe put it a page over from the home screen).

Contact Search would be awsome man!

Hmm, what´s up XDA ?
A brand-new app and no feedback ? ......Issues? ....afraid of Beta ?.... or afraid the colors? ... or just the weekend ?

Thanks for this app. As I have been using NFC Retag it takes some time to work out what to do using Aauuto.
1) First impression was why only landscape mode? I appreciate it is necessary to have landscape but there are cases with a long list when portrait should be an option. I prefer to be able to use both.
2) Major frustration is that widget cannot be put into a folder.
3) Not sure why there are two threads? This and http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/app-aauuto-automation-app-t2994977
I am using Note 4 SM-910F.
Keep up the good work. I guess we are all getting back into things after the break.
Cheers

Hi Tom,
many thanks for the feedback !
Yep, Aauuto has a completely different UI concept than ReTag .... as longterm ReTag user, this could take some time ... but compared to other automation apps this should be very easy to handle
1) Hmmm, nobody seems to like the landscape mode except me ....yes, in portrait mode you will have some additional screen space for the activity list etc. but for the main UI you will get less screen space for events and activities (unless I implement some nested scrolling views (-> usually a horrible UI from my point of view )) .... However, Aauuto is in Beta, because I want to try things out and incorporate user feedback, so I will probably incorporate portrait within the next update ... then we can all have a look and decide if it makes sense or not
2) Arrgh , I´m doing Android development for years and using it even longer, but I wasn´t aware that you can put widgets into folders .... ....I like the resizeable widgets, but obviously you can´t put them into folders ... so I think I have to provide an additional non-resizeable widget ....
3) I want as much feedback as possible and this "Apps and Games" forum seems much to overcrowded for that ....

Promising app, I just hated the obligatory landscape mode, is awkward.

For portrait mode just use the exposed "app settings" module... And now you have portrait view.
Update: Portrait mode doesn't work well ...lol
How about adding time and GPS events! ie ... Phone to silent at certain locations. Or dim screen brightness at 9pm etc

Okay I got it , portrait will be available in the next update ....I just have to re-enable it and do some minor tweaking .... prototype screenshot below ...
Time event is already available ... it´s called Time and it´s the first event ... GPS Geofence is on my todo list, but it depends on Google Services and the Google part wasn´t reliable in the past .... i want to have everything else stable before struggling with the Google servers ...
Thx for the feedback!

Okay... Portrait layout is much better.
I would make the Scheme On/Off button more apparent.. I finally figured it out but easy to miss at first.
Also... I would prefer the Schemes Overview to be its own screen (not a pop-up).. that should be the screen it starts in as well.
One more request.. make long pressing Scheme name "edit" possible (I know you can edit from Scheme Overview pop-up.. but most will try to long press to edit).
Might help to have one basic Scheme built to help folks figure out the basic layout (like a low battery scheme).
Thanks in advance.

I disabled the ON /OFF label because it looked weird ... but yes, I should mention it somewhere ...a help function or a walk through or something like that ...
Also... I would prefer the Schemes Overview to be its own screen (not a pop-up).. that should be the screen it starts in as well.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Probably no, mainly due to two reasons:
- The Overview is a quick way to switch schemes or to change some scheme settings like name or order .... I think it doesn´t contain enough content for an extra screen
- beside that the scheme screen do some heavy background loading (schemes, events, conditions, activities ) from the internal database... having an extra screen will start this loading again, so a pop up makes much more sense from a performance point of view
One more request.. make long pressing Scheme name "edit" possible (I know you can edit from Scheme Overview pop-up.. but most will try to long press to edit).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Already implemented that with an earlier prototype ....in fact, I had the same context menu enabled as in the Overview ... didn´t like it ... I think it´s much more convenient within the Overview, and beside that how often do users change a scheme name ...but it´s up to the users, if a majority wants this, I can re-enable it ....

1 Thanks for portrait mode.
2 Looking forward to widget that I can add to a folder.
3 I like the ability to move items up and down but it is tedious for more than a few positions. Can you implement a way to move to a particular position or drag & drop?
4 Note that my "event" is blank as my "activity" is triggered by click of widget.
5 Can you allow resizing of Event / Activity windows so I can see more Activity and minimize Event?
6 My Activity is a list of Start App - all related to News e.g. News Digest, News Republic etc. The idea is, I click on widget, then each app is launched and, after a few seconds I can read each News app, pressing back key to close and automatically display next one in my list until I know I have checked all my news sources.
7 Bug is that the Apps do not all launch or do not display in same order as I listed in your app.
Can this be fixed?
Cheers
Tom

5 Can you allow resizing of Event / Activity windows so I can see more Activity and minimize Event?

I think i have to keep space for at least one event ....you would gain additional space for one more activity in portrait than in landscape on a nexus 5 (note 4 maybe 2) ... so one more activity for a niche use case vs. a fidgety UI and addititonal permanent size calculations within the UI .... I don´t think that makes sense
6 My Activity is a list of Start App - all related to News e.g. News Digest, News Republic etc. The idea is, I click on widget, then each app is launched and, after a few seconds I can read each News app, pressing back key to close and automatically display next one in my list until I know I have checked all my news sources.

Nothing to fix ... Aauuto fires the activities always in the correct order ... then the android multitasking kicks in......Aauuto is really fast, so it fires the activities within a couple of milliseconds ....one of your news apps may need a little bit more time to launch than other apps (or maybe is already in cache), so for Android the order could be a little bit different ....However, if you slow down the activities a bit by adding a "WAIT" Activity (--> Misc, 1 second should be enough) between the "Start App" activities, Android should have the same order cached :good:

wait Activity

Thanks that seems to make it work better although I think some apps may need 2 seconds. Can I suggest you set the default wait to be 1 sec? I doubt anyone would actually want to wait "0" sec ...

yep, the icon set isn´t final yet .....

Hmm ,
not much feedback so far, everything seems stable ... a few small issues and only 2 error reports ... I think, I could release the 1.0 version end of January .... so, please report your issues and feature requests till the end of next week and I could probably implement/ solve them for the official (non-beta) 1.0 release ....
btw. nobody so far mentioned the colors .... I like them, but I expected some uproar ....so, last chance before 1.0 ;-P

Colours are fine.Need more volume controls. Has Alarm, Music & Ringer Volume. Missing Notifications, System and Bluetooth.
When I change a setting (e.g. delay) it should show what I had set - currently deletes and creates new.
Volume should show numbers on the sliding scale please.
It is a competitive market against Tasker, Macrodroid and your own NFC Retag. Good luck.

Yep, standard android has Alarm, Music and Ringer volume. The other volumes were skipped in Android 4.0 ICS, if I remember it right ....A lot of manufacturers re-enable these volumes ... so it´s basically a manufacturer/ rom specific feature ... easy to implement, but works only on some devices .... However, I think I will implement some device/ manufacturer specific features eventually... not all devices and not all manufacturers, but the most popular ones and this volume settings thing surely will be one of the first device specific features.
When I change a setting (e.g. delay) it should show what I had set - currently deletes and creates new.

I do it like your proposal in ReTag ....it´s easier, if you only change a parameter, but feels a little bit awkward to change an activity .... so, I tried something new for Aauuto ... to be honest, currently I don´t know what I like better ....I will think about it ... additional feedback welcome
Volume should show numbers on the sliding scale please.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hmm, android volume settings doesn´t show numbers, too .... so I don´t know what you want with these numbers ....but sure, I can have a look at it ....
It is a competitive market against Tasker, Macrodroid and your own NFC Retag. Good luck.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks!
Yep, it´s a competitive market, but NFC ReTag is more focused on non-writeable NFC tags and other NFC stuff and was never designed as a full-blown automation app ... so I started again from scratch ... I could have renamed ReTag and updated it with a completely new app/code/database etc. to keep the downloads and users, but I would have had to skip a lot of features because of a different focus ... so I will keep NFC ReTag focused on NFC stuff and Aauuto for a more general automation approach (with additional triggers, events etc. --> although the NFC event in Aauuto should be even easier to handle with writeable tags than in ReTag )
Sure, Tasker is the benchmark. in functionality and complexity ...... I like Tasker, but I discussed it a lot with users and a lot of them (even some tech-savvy users) could not handle Tasker .....
And yes, a bunch of other automation apps are also available ... The main difference is the no background service restriction in Aauuto .... let me explain it on a popular example:
A lot of users want some battery saver feature like "when battery is < 20% disable XYZ" ... you can do this with a lot of apps (and it´s easy to implement), but from my point of view it doesn´t make sense at all .... Android doesn´t provides a standard battery level broadcast (except Battery LOW and OK ...and it´s by intention). So any app which wants to provide such a feature has to start a background service and constantly waking up (every couple of seconds , once a minute, whatever) your device and check the battery stats ...this cause a lot of additional battery drain, wake locks and so on and at the end of the day, this checking could drain a lot more battery than you can save via "disable XYZ" ... so it´s senseless .... but users want it and they usually get it ... [another popular example for this user/android problem are the countless RAM cleaner apps out there ....on current Android versions, it doesn´t make sense to clean your RAM at all , because Android does a perfect job with that (only a full RAM is a good RAM ) and these cleaners usually do more harm than good ..... but users want it and they usually get it ...]
OK, back to the point: Aauuto will only implement rock-stable activities and bulletproof events and conditions ....so when you use Aauuto, you can be sure it works without issues and without hidden drawbacks. Maybe I will not implement a popular feature, due to some hidden drawback, but for me it´s more important to develop a good app and therefore have a few less downloads than implementing popular but problematic features ....Afaik you can´t be sure of that with other automation apps.

People always need to use smart phone with one hand while driving, working, drinking coffee or eating something, and the large screen smart-phone made you very difficult to use at that time.
OF Launcher used newly design with longitudinal slide, one finger will touch things easily. Users can slide to open multiply drawer with customized wallpapers which will get an unprecedented visual experience.
OF Launcher shows your apps at the bottom where you can touch them easily, without icons and widgets cluttered your beautiful desktop. Then, an amazing thing will happen. You can set your own pictures or even stars’ posters as app folders’ wallpapers, which will be shown on your phone screen totally, and these personalized wallpapers will make your phone stylish.
Rather than spending a long time in other old launchers with all your 10 fingers, just swipe and slide to manage your Android with one finger will be a better choice. The quick access app drawer let you get where you need to go comfortably. 10+ desktop gestures allows convenient access to your favorite apps, system settings, switches and all your phone widget with just one hand. You can add more folders and arrange your favorite apps to always be within your reach.
APK is available here:
www.oflauncher.com/oflauncher.apk

Two years ago, the company was able to get a seed fundings $70000 as a startup.

However, with many people’s help, OF Launcher come out finally.
One finger control features:
- Hold wallpaper to edit your current folder’s name, apps and wallpapers
- Slide left/right to open drawer, slide again to enter manage page
- Create new folders in manage page, click folder name to delete or hide it from prying eyes
- Sometimes when the folder name keeps bouncing, it means there are more apps in the folder
- Drag icon right/left to open drawer
- Drag icon into Create Folder to create a new folder
- Drag icon up/down then hold and wait, you’ ll be sent there
- Long tap icon-> move -> hold for 0.7 sec to launch floating slider!
- Long tap an application to rename, delete or uninstall it
- Widget: Weather forecast widget, Music widget, shortcut widget, settings and more

It's an awesome concept for a launcher...I know it's in early stage but still I would say it need a lot more refinement.I am running it on a Redmi Note 3 with official MIUI Dev ROM version 6.12.15.
Some suggestions from me
1. Please add icon pack support for the launcher
2. Support for system animations
3. Try not to use in-built music player, make it as a controller for the player that's running.
4. Make the side menu on both sides work by edge swipe. Feels better
5. Option for custom app groups
6. You may provide widgets in the wallpaper area which are related to the current app menu/app group eg. On home group it may show weather and time or something (news feeds maybe) in the same way music shows music control social may show social feed (I guess you get it now )
7. If the above request is done, the menu on the right will be free for your awesome imagination.
8. Provide option for live wallpapers in even though it's in the area where wallpaper is, as KLWP+OF launcher will do wonders.

considering bots? like google asistant

Consider not using Google for only download. Till then I cannot use willingly

APK update.
Hi
Here is OF Launcher APK shared on my google drive.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9ysdhkEPKVKU1pPTXNZdmdmSUE

Sony M2 Aqua - EagleXperience (based on 5.1.1) with locked bootloader & xposed
So far I LOVE this! It's perfect in terms of being customizable but not overwhelming. (I often waste lot of time planning out a homescreen only to tell myself I'll get to finishing it eventually.)
I pretty much agree with the above comment (icon packs would be cool; more widgets, though I like the way they look on the hidden side menu, etc.)
1. I like the wallpaper that shows up when the launcher first starts up, the black/orange space one, but can't find it in the folder wallpaper picker. Can you make that one available?
2. Other than the home folder, the app drawer isn't functional. I tap on any app and it says "unknown" (screenshot won't attach). They do open from the home folder, though. (Also can you make the "trending" and pandora box fully hideable?)
3. It takes a while for newly-downloaded apps to show up in the launcher.
4. Allow non-google engines in the search widget. Connect the music widget to the media player app.
5. It seems to use a lot of space, especially for how simple it is, but I haven't scrutinized every other launcher to compare, so maybe it's normal.
I'm not on Facebook, so I can't join the group. But I'm happy to continue giving feedback/usage statistics to help you out.

5.I will improve the whole code.

A last beta version, official version will be released this month
Hi all,
Here is a last beta APK you can download
http://www.oflauncher.com/oflauncher.apk
What we need you help to test this time before official version launch:
1. Is there any other problems when you are updating?
2.Will it make your phone crash or slow?
Let me know the problems’ details, so that I can check it and improve OF Launcher in the next 10 work days. I will focus on solving this kind of problems. Thank you in advance.

no longer can find app in google play. Am I missing the updates? Also is it possible to maybe group apps in a small folder that could be placed on picture area on top of each app folder. An if so can it be an optional to show same said mini folders on top of all main folder pic rather than have to make same mini folder for on pic on each main folder.Also maybe instead of making it compatible with icon packs. You could just make an option to change Icon picture to a personal gallery pic you can resize.Love your launcher. Willing to pay up to 20$ just to keep add free. Also not sure if it's been mentioned. But on samsung s7 edge you can't put same app in different folders.Automatically removes from previous folder once added to a new one.I think you may of fixed this but also notice when switching from hd,to fhd,or wqhd apps start disappearing.Once said resolution switched and kept on for a day said appsdo eventually return.Thank you again for hard work. Sould be top ten launcher 2017.

Good job!

Hey, I've update a new version. Please have a try and give me some feedback.

Launcher settings backup ?
Would you be able to add backup option for launcher settings. Whenever the app crashes, i ll have to redo all the settings. Instead it would be easier to restore from backup

Would you be able to add backup option for launcher settings. Whenever the app crashes, i ll have to redo all the settings. Instead it would be easier to restore from backup

Just installed. I must say it's a very fluid launcher. Keeping a clean home screen with the draws sliding out is real nice. Great job! Looking forward to the future updates.
