Basically SudoTape lets you mark up images on your device, images either saved on the device externally or using the built-in camera intent.
I found that being a code monkey most my life my writing with those ancient things calls pens and pencils sucks. Recently I found I needed to take some notes for measurements of things in my house and found I couldn't read my own damn writing so I thought, "Why can't I just take a picture of what I want to measure and just draw on the picture"?
This is the premise for SudoTape.
Here is the market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=net.pixelsystems.sudotape
Here is a link to the documentation: http://pixelsystems.net/?page_id=66
The app is free so it costs nothing to try it out. Your device doesn't need a camera in order to use the app even if the market suggests a camera is required.
Just curious what became of this app? I'm looking for an app for photo markup and this might have fitted the bill. Not available in the Canada play store though.

I haven't had time to update the app, it was frozen in time on Android 2.3 or something ancient. The entire camera functionality changed since I wrote the app so much of the camera functionality didn't work, or didn't work well enough to keep it in the store. I was getting tons of negative reviews so I just pulled it.
Not sure if I'll ever get back to updating it.. last I looked there were a bunch of similar apps out there so maybe you'll find something that will do what you want.
Funny thing is, it's harder than you'd think to find a really good photo markup app.
* SnapMarkup comes close but lacks text boxes
* Nimbus seems a bit overboard....

Too bad, I liked how the app worked.. Since I can't read my bloody writing anymore I used it a lot when doing some changes around the house. Sadly the SDK around the camera was in TERRIBLE shape, Android 2.X was a mess at the time with each manufacturer doing their own thin in regards to retrieving images from the camera. It made it a nightmare to try and debug and hack through all the different odd behaviors.
Chances are though, even if I managed to rewrite the camera portion to use the new SDK the whole UI is also frozen in time with the notion of having a menu button (which almost no phones do now).
Maybe some day, but not anytime soon. Thanks for the interest though.

Does anyone know of a program that's kind of like the fun lights on the motorola phones...or can someone make one i think out would be pretty cool

We need to get some people working on a program like that.
is any way to emulate nokia Xpress-on Fun Shell to get something like this on air:
I remembered VJAY555 made something similar to this just for fun.
He did vjplumbum that plays a Christmas song and the leds "dance" accordingly and another one to appear like the movie "close encounters of the 3rd kind" main theme...
Both of them must be offline, because I cant find them...
With these, you probably can find a tool that make them run (they are both EXE's) as soon as the phone starts ringing. Take in mind that all these are for wm5/6.
Now, about that nokia airtexting i never even heard of, but it looks very fun... I made a small test in flash, but i cant find more technical informations about it, I need to know the timing and sizes for the display to show a message... All the gadgets I found on youtube had accelarameters, but I don't think its needed...
I'm attaching the small tests i did to appear a heart on the screen, one is sideways and both dont really work...lol

Just make a search in:
instructables
wikipedia and
google for the term:
POV (percistence of view ) *not the pr0n POV =P.*
its the basics of cinematic....
i believe that you can make it flash something like 12fps...
I did... nothing usefull came up.
Nokia-like wave messaging seems really cool, but I don't know if a phone's screen is bright enough to achieve this effect.
I can try to make a small Win Mobile utility that does this, maybe using the accelerometer, but right now I don't really have time for this.
Hi guys, I´m looking for some aviation software, espacially a weather program that shows METAR, TAF and SPECI weather reports of aerodromes by the ICAO location indicator codes.
Additionally I´m looking for an aviation calculator, some kinda E6B thing or so...
Concerning the weather thing it might be also easy for a skilled programmer to create a little app, because you can grap the necessary weather information easily by the web. There are certain sites like
weather.noaa.gov/weather/coded.html
or
de.allmetsat.com/metar-taf/index.html
and several others (via google)
that offer the needed weather information...
Regards,
insi
I want this too, plenty apps available for iphone...
Plz
Can someone plz make an apps for this service - I really need one.....
Is this something you would pay for/there is a market for?
Also where does this information come from? Can it be easily syndicated?
Let me know and I might be able to cook something up (though it may take a little while).
I would give $10,- for an aviation weather-app!
Google is your friend. Search for WXSYS That prog should do it.
Yes, it looks good.
However, after entering my e-mail address, I still can not send any query.
It does not work for me.
No problem on my HD2 with EDDF. It even gave me satellite images
there is definately a market for that ;-) And I would pay for this kinda app - I think I would pay up to 40 Euro for it.
I know wxsys very well but for german aerodromes, especially the smaller ones it is quite bad...
regards, insi
Hrm,
Ok, maybe I need to canvas an aviation forum to see what kind of response I get.
This is something I might be interested in developing but it might take a little while. I'll keep you posted.
Something similar to aeroweather on the iphone would be great.. Count me in and my $10!! flyingmarvo
Maybe you could have a look at SBSH PocketWeather. It includes METAR aso. Using it for quite a long time. Don't know if that's the right thing for you - maybe a beginning...
After migrating from an iPhone, i am desperately waiting for something along the lines of PilotWizz.
It was great for Calculations, and decodes the latest weather (TAFs and METARs) for easy and simple viewing.
TBH im fairly disappointed with whats on offer on WM in general....hope someone is able to sort something out!!!
I´ve been using the program that´s been said before with good results for Europe:

Does anybody know a program to log flighttime (with a/c registration, callsign, flighttime, date of flight if possible)?
Hi everyone,
i am expecting my DHD to be shipped on Monday (hopefully )
so instead of waiting restlessly in front of my computer screen i decided to design my own case for the DHD since most online cases don't fit my taste.
as of now i've made the first prototype design and would like to ask you for general advice and help.
my two questions are as follows:
1. since i do not have the device at hand i don't know the exact dimensions so could anyone tell me (based on the pics) if you think the prototypes are of the right size?
2. i am not sure which design to go for, could you tell me which do you think looks best and the criteria on which you based your opinion?
thanks
note about the pics: i also included pics of a smaller card holder which i had previously made to show how the laser engraving actually looks like (i think this time the laser strength was too powerful as it cut through the material xD) and how the thread is supposed to look like (i made the android one in a hurry as i had to finish an essay before i could go out xD)
also, my favourite atm is the androids design but the wax which i tried melting on it seemed to make it look worse than i thought it would, probably cos the laser cut out too much xD, so i would also like to ask you, do you think i should make the background androids larger to increase detail or do they look ok that way?
heh another note: TEKBOI/ TEK301 is my usual nickname, that's why i engraved it
finally, the case prototypes , i hope you like them
EDIT: Thanks apprentice for letting me know about the pics :/ i think they should work now

are they visible now?
tomorrow i should have time to cut out another case but i'm not sure if i should keep the same design or not, i am not sure wether to blame to intricate design of the androids or the higher laser setting, i'll trychanging both probably xD
wow. they are amazing! i prefer the simpler design, but both are very cool.
I actually remade the Android one but enlarged the background androids this time. I attached a pic I just took with the dhd cos I'm not home. Once I got the phone I made a smaller design as this one is slightly too big and I also changed the Android sizes again. I haven't had time to go cut it yet though :/
Thanks btw xD

Hello all,
As a guitar player I've been missing a proper mobile application to record ideas that might pop into my head when I don't have a guitar (or recording studio) around. I got the idea of quickly being able to tap down tabulature and rythm into an app one year ago and started developing the app immediately. It has taken a long while, especially getting that latency down and make a responsive user experience. I've released the first version which I think many people will find useful, but I will continue to develop more features based on user feedback.
Creating a riff or solo is a two step process.
1. Touch all the notes you want in your riff. This includes bends, vibratos, palm mutes, chords etc. Do not think about timing of the notes, that's in step 2.
2. Press the "Record" button (button with circle in middle on top of screen). Tap when the next note should be played / strummed until the end of the song.
If you are happy you can now save the riff, or experiment further.
If you'd like to store the current state of your riff, you can save and clone it to continue in another file.
Anyways, I'd like to tell you about my app, hopefully you like it. It's available for Android phones currently, and should work on both phones and tablets.
Watch demonstration and get it at Google Play. :cyclops:
Also, suggestions or feedback is most welcome!
Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.digitl.guitarcraftfree
I've been looking for something like this for a very long time. I often have riff ideas and humming them into my phones voice recorder doesn't cut it.
This will work great! Thanks for the hard work!

Thanks for the positive feedback my own techniqe involved repeating the riffs in my head until I believed I would remember them... and I didn't , and many good ideas got lost on the train home...
I'm afraid that you forgot to add a link to play store!
eidt
Sorry didn't saw that you got low posts count
I've just watched the video and that looks great. I think I may have to check this out a bit more once I get time. Excellent app.
Here's a play link for those interested: Mod edit: Link removed.
@guitarman8 While I appreciate the effort and hard work that's gone into this, and may well buy the app myself, you're not allowed to use us to advertise paid apps unless there is also a free version.
I'll close this thread for now, but PM me when there's a free version and I'll open it for you again
Free link added and thread re-opened
I opened the Play Store this afternoon and found that the UI had been remotely altered once again, without an actual update of the store.
This isn't new though. This same UI was pushed by google back in April, and then too, I had received it, but only for a few days or so.
All it does mainly is change the app screens, and the main suggestions screen along with the search results remain more or less the same.

I guess you are talking about the new - mostly white - UI. It goes inline with the changes made to Chrome, Google Photos, Dialer, Contacts, Calculator etc, the Material UI 2. Hopefully that means that a dark variant is on it's way. On subject the new design feels more "clean" and gives more focus to Ratings and reviews.

IMO, Material Design 2 isn't that great at all. Firstly, all that white makes it difficult to navigate, something which the colour coding certainly helped with, and also, I believe that all of that extra white will gobble up battery fast as well.
Again, that's just my opinion, yes.
