[APP] eyeGPS ShortCuter v0.99 BETA - Shortcut Creator - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

eyegps ShortCuter
[DESCRIPTION]
After flashing a new ROM, the need to create all my Shortcuts from scratch became boring.
So I made this application to create all the shortcuts for my programs.
The idea is to select :
- The path to the application's executable file (.exe)
- The copy path, where the shortcut will be copied (usually \Windows\Start Menu\Programs)
- The Icon path. This is not nessesary but in future version if you select an image file
like .png the shortcut will be shown with this image instead of its own icon.
After selecting all the above and saving you can build a list of your favorite shortcuts.
With the press of one button, all shortcuts in your list will be created and copied to desired path.
These is also options for creatings Shortcuts one by one and an option to check paths integrity for each shortcut.
[INFO]
- Application requires Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5 to run
- The first release of the app is BETA because nobody else tried the app but me.
- I tested the app in my HD2 but I think it would run on any other device with 480x800 resolution
- Manu thanks to eboelzner for Sense Interface SDK
[ShortCuter.txt File]
All shortcuts are saved in a text file (ShortCuter.txt) with .ini format.
This is a sample record of a saved shortcut inside the text file.
[ShortCut#1]
Name = iGOPrimo
ExePath = \Storage Card\iGO Primo\iGO.exe
CopyPath = \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
Icon = \Storage Card\Images\iGOPrimo.PNG
[TO DO LIST]
- Apply Icon to Shortcut
- Renerate provisioning XML file (.reg) to directly apply the shortcuts from registry
- Renerate provisioning CAB file from the .reg file
- Support more device resolutions
- Build Silent Mode to help Cookers and flashing in general
Of course, any other ideas and suggestions are welcome...

EyeGPS ShortCuter Version 0.99 Beta
I hope that you will like the application and find it usefull.
Waiting for your comments and ideas.
Have fun...

Reserved for future releases.

ScaliCommander File Explorer

There's a new file explorer app for android that has a lot of nice features and a weird name.
ScaliCommander http://sites.google.com/site/gslngr/
The developer is very quick to respond to questions and fixes and I'm surprised that it has as few downloads as it does.
Features:
Two Panel browsing with drag-and-drop Copy/Move between folders (single or multiple files)
Image Gallery View with extreme zoom (see 5-10 images per line or zoom in to 1 image per line)
Fully customizable in colors and text/folder sizes
Excellent search capabilities
Some of the setting menus can be hard to find at first but are mainly done by long-pressing on a file or folder.
1: When looking at a folder of images, by default it will be in Details View just showing a list of files. Long-press on the folder bar and select Icon View and then you can pinch to zoom in to your desired thumbnail size.
2: To select a batch of files in Multiselect mode, select the first file, scroll to the last file and long-press and it will give you an option to Select Span
looks quite interesting.
going to read the documentation later, hopefully i'll understand how to operate scali after that

great nice to hear some feedback
looking forward to your suggestions
Works fine, will be good add a link to Market Application in order to install or find in some warez site in case the app need license or so on
One more thing this doesn't find on subfolders just in the main folder
It's not clear, but does this app actually download the apks from the market?
I'm not as interested in the intended use of your app as I am the next obvious step, which is to have multiple versions of an apk downloaded and backed up as they come out. It doesn't happen TOO often, but it's clear that apps occasionally come out that break features, I'd love the idea of being able to roll back reliably at any time.
Sweet idea! Trying it out now!
Worked great! I like this! Its exactly what i needed. Thanks alot for doing this!
After adding folder, not showing any thing. How to refresh in order to show all the apps int he folder!!!
This tool is a neat idea. I'm going to download and try it out tomorrow.
I like the idea.. working.. well for the most part.. I have 2 folders selected both just apks.. seems to be showing and working well on the first but never getting to the second folder.. not sure if it never finishes or something hangs but the green progress bar never goes more than about 30-40% but for those apps it shows it seems to work nicely and I found a few to update I hadn't checked in awhile Look forward to updates on this.. Thank you and keep up the good work
don't seem to be able to share or export the png ?
tried to share through Gmail but no png attached...
Update:
Dropbox share worked but:
the png recived includes images,words and drawings that i deleted...
so the draft is not saved properly for sending...

Well it'ld be nice if we were able to actually download apps(just free)
An option to open the app in the market website would be nice-so we can directly install it!

New screenshots
Now the main window looks like this:
Displayed at the top of the address bar for each panel, the "Up" and "Go" button, you can change the address in the manual and go to the directory.
When clicking on the address bar, whole text will be selected for your convenience to copy the path if necessary.
Current panel is different illumination address bar, the other panel bar is not highlighted.
Current panel changing instantly with any action of the user on the panel, such as touch, scrolling or clicking.
If you begin to select objects in each panel will appear at the bottom is such a panel with buttons
It will operate on the currently selected file.
If at this point you switch to another panel
Selection in previous panel remains, but some buttons are no longer available, because in the current no selection. If you choose just one item or switch back to the other panel, all the buttons will be activated.
When changing the folder in one pane, the selection in the other remains in its place:
Pop-up menu.
This is what is at the moment. Any ideas and suggestions?
is it strictly a local file manager or can it do ftp/sftp too?

Source code will be available after app release. Now it is too crude version and before the release of the source will need to refactor.
----------------
Version 0.0.1a is complete.
Worked:
- copy, move, delete file from bottom panel, like Total Commander.
- new folder, select all, deselect all, add new folder also from bottom panel.
- Share button (send file)
- Open file with assigned app
- Confirmation of operation (copy/move/delete)
- Kamikaze mode - Perform action immediately when you click, dont ask anything and dont perform confirmation.
Include preferences:
- Control panel (bottom bar) - (always on / show up when any selection)
- Open new dir - (open new dir when it created / just create it)
- Save path - (save path when exit / forget it)
- Focus dir - (Set focus on current dir, when UP button pressed / go to the top element of list)
-------
FTP, sftp, etc is planned as addons.
For archive support will be used integration with zArchiver.

Stay tuned.
- To select / multiselect, hold your finger on the file, or click on them if you selected at least one.

Please install it from Google Play (will be online after some time), it good for statistic and error information.
Thx!

Download: version: 0.0.2a
datFM_0.0.2a.apk
0.0.3a:
- Fixed crash on API below 16 (Android 4.1.1)
Those who have tested, comments, ideas? What to do first?
Very cool looking file manager i'll keep track of this, and it's one of the few that has dual panel view (the other one that i know if is solid explorer).
I have never tried using dual panne file manager on android but what I like about this app is that both the file views are accessible while using screen reading apps for android such as TalkBack or Spiel.
If I can ask there are some buttons at the top of the main window and some icons at the bottom.
These have no textual labels. Should these be added?
If it is undesired to display text labels on the screen maybe you can use content description properties on the individual buttons / images.
Greetings
Peter
0.0.4a:
- added icons for:
apk,ai,pdf,psd,swf,txt,doc,docx,rtf,odt,xlsx,xls,ods,fb2,djvu,chm,epub,ibooks,zip,7z,rar,ttf,otf,pptx,ppt,xml.
- added APK file icons generation (enabled by default, can be turned off in preferences).

p.s.: wrong version in about.
Can anyone help with translation to other language?
English, Japanese, Spanish, Standard Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Arabic, Portuguese?
I'll share string resource on pastebin.
What about when in portrait mode on phones, be able to slide from one panel to another (2 panels on such a small window is not so useful and dont looks great in my opinion)
Text editor?
+1 for ftp capability and root also
looks promising, great work!
iregados, phone version in plans. have some ideas how to make the operation more convenient, but i have only a tablet to regular testing and no free time, when i'll have some free time and the phone, I will develop both version, for phones and tablets too.
the primary target - release is for tablets, and only then will a special version adapted for phones.
phones will have to wait.

[APP][2.3+] Bumper - the overlay keyboard

Attemption to get 3 of 3:
- big buttons
- full buttons set
- big visible area of the running application
Generally designed for two-handed input in landscape mode.
Mimic side-sliders physical keyboard. Enforces landscape screen-mode
Current status: community expectations
FAQ: v0.5 and higher
1. What's the idea, advantages, strong sides?
- Big, semitransparent, only and just for landscape.
Enforces landscape by itself. Designed for two-handed usage.
Also - automatically switches system back to the previous IME,
so you'll be using whatever keybard you like in portrait.
- (from v0.6) working hotkeys on Ctrl+key
(...on android 3.0 and higher; try Menu+key on android 2.x)
2. How to launch?
- Settings > Languages and Input
Enable "Bumper", and set it as the default keyboard.
3. Where is the preferences?
- Settings > Languages and Input.
Search for button/line marked "Bumper".
4. Wow, i've just enabled it, and the phone/tabled are now fixed in landscape! Make everything back!
- Slow down, that's the point! Keyboard enforces your device to stay in landscape.
So, the main way to get things back - choose/launch another one.
5. That's weird. Are you suppose I'll go to the Settings each time?!
- Of course no! You only have to enable "Bumper" in accessibilities,
this will create quick-access area at the top-right corner of the screen.
6. I've enabled accessibility, and see weird semitransparent pink box.
- You are on the right way. It is the "quick-access area". Now, you can do next things:
a. tap it: force keyboard appear/hide
b. swipe-down: show keyboard picker
c. swipe right-to-left: minimize area into notification
d. swipe left-to-right: switch back to the previous IME, if "Bumper" is ongoing
e. long press: preferences
7. Do I need to use keyboard picker dialog each time i wanna lauch Bumper?
- Yeas, there are no other "non-root" way to switch the system to new IME - only you can do it, manually.
From the other hand, currently set IME is able to freely switch system to the any other enabled IME (and die after that, ha-ha)
8. I wanna change layout/labels/language, or add new. What I have to do?
First of, you have to create somewhere folder, and specify it's path in the preferences.
After that, you are free to put your custom files according to subfolders structure:
- "layouts" - there are button grids expected
- "labels" - what to draw on the keys
- "kcms" - similar to android kcm files, except of "axis" and "map" signatures are not currently supported
- "themes" - appearance
9. I wanna change layout/labels/language, any readings?
You can unpack apk as a simple zip, and check for content inside of "assets" folder.
All used files are the plain text, so you'll need any text editor.
Key names:
keycode names in cm11 sources
they are again, in cm12 sources
Notes about labels:
Instead of .kcm files, there are sequences of the Unicode characters allowed.
But the space character is allowed only stand-alone, so use \u0020 insead.
More info:
Related targets:
- KCM* files community, for more languages support
- Button-grids and layout-localization community, just for project's growing
- Linux-on-phone community can also find it usefull, I think
*KCM-parser currently used allows only "key" description in file, "map" and "axis" signatures will cause errors
Dev notes:
- since I'm a newbie in development, project will grow slowly
- but when I'll not be scared of own code anymore, I'll make it open-source
- you are free to make repacks/reposts. (WTFPL)
- you are free to make own similar projects. Just post link here, maybe i'll use your one =)
- behaviour is sensitive to the whole **** going on deep inside android, can't fight with that
Credits:
- will be added during beta test, but you can ask in PM
Download: alpha 0.8 (2016 mar 13)
Lack some language? Make your own .kcm
Application Not Responding in LG Optimus 4x HD [ICS]
Update: alpha 0.4
What's new:
- added correct portrait-mode support
- added non-overlay mode for landscape (breaks the whole idea, lol)
- support of autopopup
- added basic (primitive) settings
There are still 2 separated versions due to hardcoded reasons.
You are free (and welcomed) to make own repacks based on ru-en version if you need 2 languages.
External data support - update 0.4.2
It's a starting point for the comunity: now you can freely add custom files.
Ho to load files from sdcard:
1. Create the "root" folder somewhere you wish.
2. Make subfolders you need, you'll be placing files here*:
- "layouts" for key layouts
- "labels" for displayed key names
- "kcms" for .kcm files - languages support
3. Specify the path to the "root" folder in preferences.
This files are plain text, so you can modify them by simple notepad
Examples may be unpacked directly from apk, they contain small helping notes
* - "root" subfolders structure are similar to "assets" structure inside the apk.
Files from the "assets" are listed dynamically, so it's easier now to make own repacks, but the "defaults" are still hardcoded.
What's new:
- additional files may be loaded from sdcard
- preferences to switch layouts and labels
- preferences to manage languages
- vibration may be switched off
If you want to write your own layout, check out for the keycode names:
keycode names in cm11 sources
they are again, in cm12 sources
Dev (mine) request: post here .kcm files of not yet supported languages, they'll be included in the future builds. And share the keyboard layouts.
Update 0.4.3 - Small fixes
What's new:
- fixed unicode character sequence reading from .labels.txt files
- added quick-toast notification on language switch
- added Ukranian kcm and labels (due to my location)
Remind you: For more languages be supported, make appropriate .kcm files
How to load files dynamically from sdcard:
If you unpack apk like a zip, you'll find "assets" folder with 3 subfolders:
- layouts //grids of keys
- labels //names of the keys, displayed to user
- kcms //languages
Make somewhere on the sdcard "root" folder with similar subfolders you need,
and specify the path to this "root" folder in the app preferences.
That's all. Now, files will be listed from this subfolders.
I'm thinking on way of keys autorepeat realization, so it'll be the next ferature.
Bumper alpha 05 - back to original concept
What's new:
- removed portrait mode support (instead - previous IME is auto-enabled)
- removed non-transparent mode
- trigger is now on separated service (which have to be enabled in "accessibilities")
There are also updated first post, to match changes.
Bumper alpha 06 - autorepeat & hotkeys support
What's new:
- keys are autorepeating!
- hotkeys (Ctrl+X/C/V/A/arrows) are working! on android 3.0+
- Enter now calls for fields action
Any feedbacks? Any custom .kcm files or grids?
Notes about hotkeys:
- I haven't reimplemented the existing wheels, just made better communication with android, so hotkeys on Ctrl work on 3.0+ since it was presented in android 3.0
- As far as I know it could be possible to use Menu+X/C/V combinations on
Android prior to 3.0. Can't test it without device.
- Opera mini freezes/crashes on Ctrl+key combinations outside of input fields (you could force Bumper appear anywhere, remember?). Not my fault. AFAIK it behaves similar with physical keyboards.
Bumper alpha 07 - themeable, little improvements
What's new:
- customizable themes*
- quick access area now looks nice
- new gesture on QAA: long press -> preferences
- QAA contains CAPS/SCROLL/NUM lock's ligths/lamps
- CapsLock at the first row (where was big dead key)
- better stability during typing
*place theme files into [directory_in_preferences]/themes/
Bumper alpha 0.8 - sticky modifiers, fn key support
What's new
- sticky mode (affects Shift's/Ctrl's/Alt's)*
- fn+key -> another key**
- "key_toggled: " field in the themes
- theme files are checked for the errors, like other files do
- changed included set of keyboards
- minor fixes
*first tap - key is sticked, second - toggled, third - released
You could use modifiers as before (till pressed), since sticked state will not be set in case of non-modifier was pressed when modifies was being holded
** Check for assets inside of apk for more info
It seams like I have 8-10 followers, who are waiting for each update...
Don't be silent!
P.S. Updates... There will be no any new features for some months, I think.
