New app idea.

I constantly walk and text so hate having to look up to see if anything is coming. Is there an app out there that makes the sms screen transparent with the camera screen as the wallpaper? Or display a small camera image just above everything? Not sure if this is the right section for this so re-direct me if thats the case.Thankyou for your time and i look forward to any replies.

Probably possible, but who would take the time to implement it?

Idea of the year that

Already exists for the iphone, surprised it doesn't for android yet!

Actually it exists in the samsung own android store, check out the galaxy s section i think you can find the apk somewhere.

Same, might be because we're 1.6 and not 2.1.

Does this have an equalizer?

This is the best thing since Christmas.. Though this really resembles a windows mobile 6+ app called pocket music by pocket mind..

I use this app it's great. Ive been using this for a couple months.Much better than stock plus shoutcast radio is great. Music video option while streaming on shoutcast radio is cool.

[app] [sms notification] keylights

Notice * all credit goes to TheJza over at sdx
This was an app my wife used on her moment to flash the lights across the bottom. I could have sworn that I tried it when i first bought my evo and it didn't work. Well I tried again today and tada!
The reason behind needing it is that I can't see the led from across the room even with the wimax notifier. Now it gets my attention.
I have not tested the affect on battery yet. Or what roms it works with. Im on evokings shift need for speed rom now and it works. Please test and feedback.

The apk is here.
I just tested it on my wifes shift rooted with a stock rom and it works. sooo thats
2.3.3 shift rom on the evo (Evokings need for speed and misfits speedy)
2.1 shift rom on the shift
CM7 on the Shift
Evervolv on The Shift
CM7 evo but I couldn't clear them. They keep blinking
Fresh 3.5 (closest thing to stock on my SD)

Unable to install on cm7. I'm sure it needs updated to gb

I don't think its gingerbread related. The shift rom is 2.3.3. Try sending yourself a text but make sure you have the screen off or the box checked for screen on. Also cup your hands around the keys if its bright out as they are not bright. I have mine set to flash and thought it didn't work just now. Also have mine set to timeout after 1 hour.

I just tried it out on misfits speedy odex rom and it works ... thx for this!

Does this work on asop roms ?

Just installed this on mik froyo and working with these specific settings that I changed: 2 second intervals, keep screen on checked, uncheck notification. Everything else I kept default. Thanks for the find! Will repost if I find bad battery life.

Did you try the one i posted or the one from the SDX forum? I think the links are bad from the other forum. Its an old app.

This app has been un supported for a while. maybe one of the fine devs here could make that happen. I looked into reverse engineering last night but my eyes kinda glazed over. way over my head.

Sleep button/screen off effects

So my brother just got a program on his itouch, which is called tv tube sleep I think. It changes the effect of his screen off button to a tv off effect which is awesome. Ive found "screen off FX" on the android market, which is kinda cool I guess...but thing is its a widget, rather than actually pressing your sleep/screen off button...anyone find some kind of app im looking for? Thanks a lot guys! Kes

android battery bar

ok, a few years back, my windows phone had this really cool app, it was a bar across the top that was 1 or 2 pixels tall, multi colored that displayed the amount of battery left. someone told me it was in a rom, but I can't find it to save my life. maybe one of you has seen it or knows which mod, or anything about it, because I would LOVE to have that stupid little bar back.
Thanks
Pat.

It's built in to Cyanogen mod, if that's available for your particular decide. Not multi color as far as I know though.

sorry if im mistaken, i dont think this feature is on cyanogen mod. It is however on most of the 'MIUI' roms, i think it is standard on there.

Is this possible to have standalone? This would complete my device.

damn, wish it was standalone.. I'm pretty loyal to my current rom, at least until I get the new samsung infuse or whatever it's called.

+1 here, i still use LvmTopBat in my winmo, in colour and its the best. easy to read and always there.
hoping for a port

I like the tactics here

MIUI has that option.

tried an miui sd build (by 3dak, very smooth build) and the top bar is sweeeet. a thin green line which filles up from the right when its charging, and on lockscreen.
i want, i want, want, but i dont want miui ;-)
it would be worth a few dollars even as a paid app,
anyone???
