Somehow my phone number was entered into some phonespy thing, idk u can search it or their home web page is mossi.com , anyways for the last two days I've been getting this logo that appears on the status bar, its a red star in a white circle if you want to know but it doesnt matter. It's an ad and must go. So when I see it I pull down the status bar, it might be a sense thing idk, htc sensation if its important. Well here's the part that is important, in bold it says phonespy, and in regular text it says "to optout go to ....." I can only see half of the url!!!! And when I click on it my browser opens up to one of their pages with more ads and no option to opt out. Is there a way to view old notifications? Or at least next time when I get one because I know I will to view the notification in full????
Please if anyone can help it would save me from throwing my phone against the wall and spamming the email I found during a whois search. Jk. But help would be greatly appreciated.

Best guess,
Look at the apps you've installed in the last little while. The notification bar adds are probally coming from one of them. Any apps that were non-market installed...more than likely from them.
I've got a widget from 'best apps market' (availible in the android market) that shows last 5 apps installed and options to remove, etc.
If the adds are being txted to you then try blocking the phone number.
Best of luck.
Edit: I did have an app spam me, it was a tetris type game. Had the 'extra space' so as to not be copywrite sued (world tetris??)....uninstalled soon after and they've left me alone.
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
I made an app that lets you adjust volume in a number of apps (including Netflix, Hulu+, Gallery Video, Amazon Video, Amazon mp3) by swiping along the side of the screen. You can also turn on boost mode to adjust volume up to 140%.
Here's the apk. It's free, but does contain an ad for a paid app of mine. Since it's Open Source, you can build your own copy without this ad.
I know there is already an app that lets you adjust volume by swiping, but I thought it would be nicer to have this active only in a few apps, so it doesn't get in the way in other apps.
I eventually hope to add a feature where you can select additional apps to the list where VolumeSwipe is active, but that's for the future. But if there is some popular video/audio playing app that I've left out, let me know.
This seems cool. What's the other app you're talking about?
thanks for the work you put in.

The other app is Volume Control, I'm not sure why the OP states that the other one (volume control) gets in the way since it has an auto-hide feature.

VolumeControl hides visually, but of course it's still there even when hidden, so it will get in the way if you want to tap on something in that area of the screen in an app. Ditto for my VolumeSwipe, except that the problem is minimized by the fact that VolumeSwipe is only active in a few apps.
Also, I think the narrowness of the VolumeControl bar, even on its widest setting, might make it harder to hit (though I haven't tried VolumeControl specifically on our Kindle, since I haven't rooted our Kindle due to DMCA concerns). VolumeSwipe provides a much wider bar. I think that's probably nicer if, say, you are watching a movie at the gym.
Sounds nice. You say "a number of apps (including...)". Could we have a complete list of the apps you include? BTW, you mention that your slider is narrower than Vol Control. Vol control's slide width is adjustable in the settings

I think I actually listed all of them, except for VPlayer. I am happy to add more.

Yeah, but it still doesn't go very wide.

Awesome. Reminds me of Spinal Tap: These go to eleven...
Awesome app, thanks. Could you add an option to shut off the notification? Not a huge deal, but now I keep checking my notification bar thinking i got an email or text.
Also, could you add the YouTube app to the list of apps this works in if it isn't already? Thanks!
Damn you Swype!
thanks.......just what I was looking for........
Bumped ...the app has been updated ...

I've been dying for something to adjust vol while I'm watching youtube and this is the best thing so far... Any chance you could add a auto hide feature? Otherwise thanks, this is great!

I don't know what you mean by auto hide. Right now, when you let go of the swipe area, it disappears. Or at least it's supposed to.
Not disappearing on mine for some reason but thats what I meant by auto hide. If you made a invisible option that would be a good solution /feature to solve my issue and anyone else who may come across it. It's a great app to have on the KF though especially for use with youtube (every vid is recorded @ diff vol levels) ... I was having to exit youtube everytime to adjust the vol (annoying) but now I can just swipe! Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately, 1.01 was buggy.
I think I fixed some bugs in 1.02.
I recommend uninstalling 1.01, then rebooting, then installing 1.02.
Unfortunately, due to a bug in Android's package manager (which I reported to Google), it is necessary to turn off VolumeBoost before installing a new a version. I have not been able to find an easy way around this.
NOTE: USE BOOST ONLY AT YOUR OWN RISK. IT COULD DAMAGE SPEAKERS (especially if you turn off the non-uniform boost option in the settings).
It's officially in the Appstore.

I like the app. A few suggestions? Include type of movie genre and long pressing the title gives you the option to subscribe. And having the menu settings on top is not easily navigable. Better to have it pop up on bottom like most apps. Thanks for the great work!

Thanks for the feedback! Funny thing is that I had it on the bottom and it was requested to move it to the top! I might rethink the buttons for the next release, possibly adding them to a bottom bar and having them always visible.
FlixAlert 1.4.1 is now up on the market! Changelog is in the OP.
Maybe you could add upload the app for so I can test it?
Market says incompatible. Maybe due low DPI?

I updated but when I clicked on sign in, it says I'm subscribed and asks for password for verification. All the passwords I normally use all seem to be incorrect. Any way to reset password? Thanks. Also, it would be awesome to subscribe automatically when you long press on the movie as I seem to keep on doing that and all it does is show my copy paste dialog box.

It says that because your phone is already tied to an account, most likely if you did an update. Should be same password. You can pm me or email me with what email you used and I will reset your password.

Hi @Flyview cool concept. You asked for feedback. I think you should allow the transitions to be slower 2 seconds is to fast.
I don't really understand the seconds of the transition is it random ?
You might want to show a small overlay as a tutorial on first start I found the one tap to pause which is nice and the two tap to like, but I liked a picture without knowing what the 2 tap would do and I don't know which one it was
I'd like a go back feature too, if you see a picture and right when it disappears you notice something but you can't go back, so just a see previous like a swipe right.
Living in Paris I learned with your app that most pictures on instagram are of the Eiffel tower
Getting a blank screen many times.

It will show a new picture whenever there is a new one available (up to minimum of every second), this will be configurable. I have to think of a good way to show previous pictures. I was thinking the old ones would become scrollable below but if someone new comes to the app they may think it's like Instagram where the point is to scroll down. And yes, intro overlay should be added as well. That's awesome about Paris haha!

Hmmm that's not good. Do you have Google apps installed? What's your Android OS and ROM? It'll work with whatever location provider is available, GPS is not necessary.
Do you mean "Google apps device policy"? no
I run 4.4.2 on Asus A86 device
@Flyview nice app i have few suggestions
1. Ability to select the distance range for nearby pictures
2. Ability to click the user of the pic uploader, which takes directly to their profile so that we can follow them.
3. Custom picture refresh time.
4. Add an overlay which has buttons to Pause/Play Previous/Next buttons.
tried uninstall, reinstall and login.
there is an error warning warning telling me i have to enable cookies in my browser, or disable private mode? then this blank screen all the time. only way to reach login page is uninstall/reinstall

Oh ok that makes sense then. You need to enable cookies in Chrome (or whatever browser the Instagram login page is using). Otherwise LivePics can't log you in to your Instagram account.

well i checked and cookies are enabled in every browser installed: default, chrome, firefox, opera. not sure witch one instagram is using. will dig deeper in settings.
Same problem, I only get a white screen. Running KiKat on a stock TMobile Note 3. Tried clearing data. Hangs on login screen usually, then it will give the login/cookies error message. If I get past that, back to white screen. Tried uninstalling, then reinstalling - same results.

So do you ever see the screen where you enter username/password for instagram or does the message come before that? A screenshot would be great!
error message appear after login. then blank screen.
