v1.2
* Now with several more, aesthetically pleasing watch faces and hands
* Upload your own png file as /sdcard/livewatch.png (girlfriend picture, pet, etc.) -- Beware! The LiveView device is very picky with encoding, color set, etc.
* Flashligt! (Why not?) Click the select button, then touch the top border.

***
I am going to talk about a plug-in I wrote for the Sony Ericsson LiveView.
However, if you guys wish to discuss development for that device or how to make it work better, this is also welcome because it is both intriguing and under-represented (and a bit maddening at times)
Anyway, I was flabbergasted when I realized that there isn't any straightforward "watch" plug-in for the LiveView so in a couple hours I figured out how to use the SDK and created one.
I am not releasing it yet and I will only make it available it there is interest for it and I get the appropriate permissions from the people whose art I have used for this proof of concept app.
By the way, more face and hands art would be welcome!
A few (terrible) screenshots:

My LiveView was sent from the website i ordered it from, today=) I would really such an addon=)
And i can make you some artwork if i get something to work with=)

Oh, that's good.
I hope it works well for you. The device losing its pairing can be quite aggravating.
On the other hand it is a breeze to develop for; actually simpler than writing a home screen widget.

A friend of mine got it last week and said that he had lost his pairing once since he got it set up.
To me no development is a breeze i know squat about programing
But as said i would love to make you some graphics you could use so that you can release this=)

^^
I just received a sms from my post office that my LiveView had arrived
and here are a little graphic preview of some artwork you might use(?) It shows the whole thing, background, minute hand and hour hand=)
I really think you should release this addon

Ha! I like it a lot, in fact.
Can you post it as three files as described at http://www.voilaweb.com/lv_faq#createtheme?
Oh, and I updated the OP with a link to the beta apk

Will do, Just have to make some minor changes as the big and short hand are the same. and also added some indicators on the clock face.
Edit: Also, will you support this addon? i mean like bugs and stuff?

I guess, I will have to, yes

So, anyone go any feedback for me?

hey man.
i just installed your app from market and it's looking great.
i guess you can make a clock with digits or maybe a digital one.
it still disconnects but at least i have a watch
one other thing maybe you can ad an always on screen option

MrJay, first off, thanks for your feedback
The "always on" option would be nice but I invite you to think about this some more...say until your device dies on you because its damn battery is already too weak for the plug-in's current version
EDIT: OK I really don't want to sound negative. The device is really nice. I just wish it had better connectivity and battery life.
In fact, the tricks I read on how to force it to reconnect using AutomateIt, etc., end up sucking battery life like crazy.

The only thing i have to say about this addon, is that its a bit slow to update when i wake the screen. might take a sec before the clock shows the correct time.
Other than that, i love it

Thanks Marius.
Yes, I know about the 1 sec. delay it's due to sending as few updates to the device as possible, to improve battery life.
But maybe I could slightly alter this behavior for a "wake up" event.
BTW, I hope you guys are using the version from the market! It's free, but more likely to get updates than the one on my blog.

i stopped using automateit. it didn't do that much and yes you're right about the crappy battery life .
anyway keep up the good job. it's a nice to have application.

I ordered one of these devices today after seeing this post, fantastic plugin! this is perfect for when I'm at work, seeing as I work outside and don't have time to check my phone for any updates, much less the time. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Where can I order this I'm interested I live in California if that makes a difference

Well, Spitfire, so do I. I ordered from these guys: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004E2V4NM and it was shipped from Florida.

Have you updated this with any new themes?
Ive been away over the easter and haven checked in here for about 2 weeks. also i've been flashing a lot of ROMs lately so havent gotten to hook up my liveview yet. Will look in to it today th0=)

Can someone make a theme like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib9GTkImEwQ&feature=player_embedded#at=20
(watch the video it has a bunch of different themes as well)

Awesome design. I fear that the LiveView's limited resolution will not be able to display something this complex, though. Not even something as good-looking as a TikTok

[Q] App that mirrors the screen to use it as a HUD

Hi there. I need an app that mirrors the screen of my android phone to use it as a HUD in my car. I've already found an app that shows the current speed mirrored, but i would like to have it for other apps, too. So that i can use apps like Google Maps Navigation with my front window.
I googled a lot, but i sadly didn't find anything...
I'm confused.
You want this displayed ... how? where?
Please share the name/developer of the other app you've already found. Give us an idea of what you are talking about.
When you say HUD (heads up display), the only thing I can think of is some sort of projected display on your windshield
THAT WOULD EFFING AWESOME!!!!
if i understand Phexi right, he wants to put his phone under the windshield in a way that enables you to see the reflection of the screen in the windshield. works great during night trips.
usual problem - everything is mirrored.
wow that's a good idea!

This is exactly what i wanted to tell you
Yeah, the "evrything is mirrored" can be a problem, but with the help of a homescreen widget (maybe with a mirrored text ) it should be possible to switch back very easily
With an AMOLED display it should look very good (when the rest is black), but it has to be mirrored to work.
should look like this then

I think 5 is enough. Any of these float your boat? (those all *should* have mirrored "HUD" settings so when laid on your dash under your windshield you get the effect of the BMW HUD above. I haven't tried any of them personally, though.)

He isn't looking for a speedometer, he wants to mirror his screen for all apps, so that way he can use the maps app or the navigation app or any other app of his choosing and see it on his windshield. Before you go off on your next pissy fit, read carefully.
i bet it wont be that hard to make......if no one can find one, i bet i can make one....
Maybe Cyanogenmod can incorporate it into his RenderFX mod.

You are right, I didn't read carefully - I read looking for a HUD, scrolled down saw more HUD talk, more talking of speedo HUD's, so I wen't on appbrain and looked for some.
Just trying to help. I guess this another forum I'll stop contributing to. I don't need to deal with know-it-all jerks like you, I get enough of you people in real life.
Sorry OP, just trying to help. I don't see any way to do it unless you made the OS and all the apps (at least the relevant ones) mirrored in a custom ROM.
Goodbye.

If you are the first to do it, you could easily charge $1 and make a mint...I would recommend a trial version with a, say, 14 day trial period.
like so:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqtHZE-8fCw
is this it?
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.scientific.car&hl=en
Any progress on this? This would be an excellent app idea but due to my limited development knowledge someone else will have to work on it. This app will allow anyone to use their phone/tablet to project image on a semi-reflective surface and serve as a cheap full-screen navigation/media center solution.
I will be willing to purchase it as an initial customer and even make a small donation for its development.
How bout the app up there?
No, the app in the link only mirrors some text based info. We need something that can flip the display contents on the y-axis. This way when you project the screen contents the reverse text and graphics appear normal. I do not believe there's anything in the market that currently offers to do this.

it should be easy to develop.
Or not?
Any updates on this anyone? There seems to be niche demand for this thereby warranting someone to do the great work.

Just guessing here but I would think that this would be easier accomplished baked in as a feature of a launcher or a ROM rather than an app

Request to develop basic app: Sobriety/Clean-time counter

Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place to post, but I wondered if there were any developers out there up for creating an app for android. What I am on about is a "Sobriety Counter" type app. The iphone has one it's called "Friends of Bill"
It is basically just a counter, you would type in a date and time and it continues counting from that date.
Would be great to get on on my android phone! and I'm sure loads of other people would be interested in this, as I see a lot of people in na/aa meetings who have the iphone one.
Cheers!
Oli
I might be able to make something after Im done with my next app
I was about to put one together, but then I did a search for Android apps and found this: hxxp://listandroidapps.com/2010/09/06/android-apps/lifestyle-android-apps/12-steps-aa-companion-android-app/
Doesn't it do what you need?
Do you need something THAT specific? There's a Day and Time app that does this sort of thing too..
http://www.appbrain.com/app/daysanddate/com.deskangel.DaysAndDate
You put in a date and can save it and you can see time since/time to.. And it's a great date calculator on the fly, ie: What's the date 50 days from now, etc.
Hi, thanks for the replies. That AA app looks great, but doesnt have a counter on it, and the Daysanddate too, ive installed it, very useful, but what I am talking about is like a constant running counter. This is a screenshot of the iphone one:
hxxp://a1.phobos.apple.com/us/r1000/045/Purple/57/63/f6/mzl.fdnllajk.320x480-75.jpg
Any counter like this would be great, but would be cool if it could say like "This is your clean time: "
Thanks a lot guys!
Oli
Or does anyone know an app that already does just a basic counter. Set a date/time and it continues counting.
First attempt:
It displays a counter and you can reset it.
The sponsor stuff does not work yet, and it's butt-ugly because it's a proof of concept.
Get it from this page (second link): http://nexus.zteo.com/projects/beta/
Thanks so much man!!
Really like the way you've added the sponsor part into it. That is such a great idea. I would definately use that option.
Need to be able to enter date and time from when first got sober, then the counter continuously counting from then. So when you open the app it will say the amount of sober years/months/weeks/days/hours/mins/secs from the original Date/Time entered. Anyway of making the counter visually carry on counting when it's open too?
The oops button you included would be good too! I wont ever have to use it though (fingers crossed!)
Amazing for first attempt man. This really could become something great! I know it will be popular in the recovery community, I know a lot of friends who will use this.
I uploaded a new version.
It looks a bit better and the "Call sponsor" feature should work.
Still not happy with the overall look, especially the layout of the buttons. There is no sense of which ones are more important.
Also: the counter, albeit counting ok, actually can display weird stuff. Hrm.
Cool! Will install it when I get home.
The most important thing is to able to manually enter a time and date, then the counter will continuously count from that time and date. E.g for me I will want to enter 10am 07/07/10, and when the app is open it will display the elapsed time since then.
Is it possible to make the counter carry on counting when the app is open too?
Thanks a lot for this!
OK. Listened, added, skinned.
Please re-download it, have a look at the help, let me know.
Cheers!
Love it!!!!
Looks awesome man! Really really grateful for this!! This is exactly like I was describing! Really this is great though man! Impressed. Now I have the icon on my homescreen it is the quickest way to actually call my sponsor 2 clicks, instead of going to contacts, etc!
Couple of things, I really like the "Token" option, is it possible to select image from gallery as well as take picture?
Also could you put it as "You have been clean and sober for:"
Would it be OK to send the link to this thread to some of my friends online who would be interested in this and could help test it out?
I will add the picture gallery at some point, for sure.
And I will change the text too.
Sure, tell your friends about it; it's free and I will soon upload it to the android market.
I can put it on the market for ya if you want so it can receive updates and such. Also would benefit other users. PM me if you want!
Captainkrtek, thanks for your offer. I already have a market account though so it took me only a few moments to upload it (90% of that spent lamenting Google's new requirement for a 512x512 "icon"!)
For anyone interested, the latest version is now available on the market. Look for "Sobriety counter."
This should be on the newsfeed! Awesome app!
Thanks

Widgets
Coming very soon (need to run regression testing and that's it): Widgets.
As discreet -- or not -- as you want them to be. I'm thinking three different widgets:
Hi, I have found a slight bug, thought I would report it. If you open the App and then exit it just using the back button, then when you open the app again the time hasn't continued counting. It has paused during the time when the app was closed (running in the background). The only way to sort it out at the moment is to use Taskiller, then when you open it again it is working normally. So if you could possibly fix it so that it carries on counting when the app is closed and running in the background.
Widgets sound great, again a great development!
I have shown a few people this app now and spreading the word, a lot of people want it on their phones. My friend has actually decided to upgrade her phone to an android phone simply so she can have this app!! Cleantime is a very important thing to people in recovery, so this app is brilliant!
Good catch.
I just updated the market app. with a fix for this.

[APP] Sound Box

Well, here is my first published app. Meet...

Sound Box
It reacts on a shaking and makes your phone act as a bell, drum, rattle, wind chimes and other such a stuff. It's a toy for fun. Some users noted that children also love it.
So shake your phone, have fun!
The goal
Actually the initial idea came from my friend. She said: it would be cool if you'll shake your phone and it will sound like a junk in a metal box or like a broken device. Totally broken. Later me and my friends came up with an invention to add a bell, maracas and more. When I started, the main goal was to make an app that authentically behave like a rattle, a bell, etc. I tried to get a realistic reaction to the phone shaking. Among other things, different sounds for different strength of shaking - just like real things. Hope I've succeeded.
Variations
There are two versions: lite and full. Lite version contains limited set of sound themes. For now there are small bell, darbuka and "digital" sound (simple sine harmonics). Full one is a set of about 20 sound themes. There are, in addition to lite ones, metal and bamboo wind chimes, maracas, rattlesnake, jingle bells, tin can with junk (yeah that junk from the initial idea) and much more. For now full version is paid.
Requirements
- Android 1.5+.
- No additional permissions required.
Notes
The application locks most of the buttons by default. You could switch it off: see Menu -> Settings for details!

Yeah, why not. Actually there was an idea to make it possible for users to create sound themes by themself and share it with anyone. Right now I finishing my first game. After it possibly I'll made it.
Anyway I'll try to record some nice guitar sound and add it to the existing set.
C'mon guys, just tell what you think! Is it good? Is it bad? Is it boring? Just anything... How do you think, what would be great to add/change here?
Well, ok...
nice app!
the sound theme list is too short in the free app though..
I would suggest you to put a full version and let ppl try it out
Then, you lock the update after you have received all the comments and recommendation
nice app.
But i can't download the Full version via the QR code, and i couldn't find it on android market
great app with far reaching potential. needs more sounds though.

Yeah, may be, I'm not sure (that somebody will shake the phone so far as to damage it). Anyways, it's not necessary to shake it too hard. There is a setting of the sensitivity in the application. But maybe you're right. Maybe I'll add a warning to the application's description. Just in case.
Sorry mate with respect have to give this the thumbs down, i was expecting at leaast 10/15 different sounds not just 3,my young son might like it if there were some cartoon noises but only 3 uninstalled..sorry.
i'll try.
seems nice

[CONCEPT] Nexus Q: Q-Dash - Completed

This is something I had an idea about as soon as I saw the Nexus Q. I saw the potential this device has, however the current setup is just lacking. Good thing is hackable and runs Android though.
I am not a developer, I just come up with concepts in the hope that either Google or a developer will like the idea and begin to implement it.
What is it?
The Q-Dash is a customisable dashboard powered by the Nexus Q. Every morning, we wake up and check our phones for the latest news, weather, Facebook updates etc. If you can get it on your phone, its likely that we will check it.
However, you have a Nexus Q, why not put all that information onto one screen.
When your alarm goes off, your Android Device sends a command to the Nexus Q to power up the Q-Dash.
Q-Dash is your daily dashboard of all the information you check in the morning and its fully customisable. It can give you any Google Now Card, the latest breaking news stories, RSS feeds, Facebook/Twitter information, Live TV or Audio Streams. Q-Dash also shows you notifications you might have missed during the night.
How does it work?
Q-Dash is a completely 'hands free' experience from the moment your alarm goes off. When the alarm is activated, your Android device automatically listens for your voice, enabling you to snooze or dismiss your alarm without getting out of bed. Once it receives the dismiss command, your Android Device powers the Nexus Q on in Q-Dash mode.
From then on, your Android Device listens out for a hotword. When it hears this hotword, it activates the speech recognition so you can control Q-Dash.
Ask it to show you your RSS feeds from the Google Blog, and thats what it will do. Ask it to read you an article from a RSS feed - it'll do that as well.
Change the Livestream, post a Facebook/Twitter update, see the weather forecast, check your daily agenda or go to your favourite website - Q-Dash can do all this an more. It also has the compatibility to launch Q-Dash optimised applications from your device, right onto the Q-Dash. So if you want to see your favourite news application on Q-Dash, just ask it to launch. If the app is Q-Dash optimised, it'll launch for you.
If you have multiple Nexus Q's in your house, you can take Q-Dash with you. Simply tap your phone on any Q-Dash to bring it up. Q-Dash also knows when you have left your house, so can power down the Nexus Q automatically.
If you like this concept, don't forget to click Newsworthy in the top right and share this around the web!

Final version has been submitted, complete with voiceover etc
Dude, all I have to say is the concept sounds pretty awesome. However, and this isn't the fault of Q-Dash at all...unless if the Q gets a lot more functionality, and quickly, I doubt too many people are going to be paying $300 for a gimped device. I mean, it's a networked media consumption device, but it can't even do local streaming of audio or video (at least not natively, and I haven't seen anything 3rd party that can do it either).
Three times expensive than Apple TV,I'm not sure it's worth enough
Yeah I best you.
Its been hacked to runs apps hasn't it so things like this shouldn't be to far away
This is an amazing concept for the Q! I can't wait to see where this goes! This is the future!! I just picked my Q up on ebay today. For those of you interested but not wanting to pay 300+ tax check out ebay. I got mine for 195 and saw them come and go for 170-210 from the Google I/O folks. Following this thread and can't wait to see where this goes! This just made me 1000 times more excited about picking up the Q.

Following this thread and can't wait to see where this goes! This just made me 1000 times more excited about picking up the Q.

Thanks
It doesn't seem to be gauging much interest like my notification concept.
Feel free to share it round, submit it as a news tip to sites etc

What are you looking for from the community? Backers? Interest? Do you have plans to launch? What do you need to launch or begin development?
Sorry for all of the questions but I'd really like to know where your vision is for this new concept, as this is something that has really got my interest.
Thanks

My vision would be for either a developer or Google to jump on board and develop it as its only a concept. If I had the time in my life, I'd sit down and attempt to learn Java and see what I could do myself, however I have pretty much no free time at the moment
Congrats!
Mas, it´s great.
I shared it on my Google Plus.
Thanx for this concept.

Will check this out, thanks!
I've been waiting for an app like this since I tried Appy geek, and it's finally here
After a short test, I like it. It needs more sources though, is there an option to find them, just I can't see it, or is it left for future builds?
Push notifications would be nice, in the future, for now it's rather good as it is!
Edit: I have first posted, and then saw that you've already mentioned sources. For starters, I would add Auto Express and Autocar videos.
I'll keep using the app and give more info in the future Thumbs up!

Thanks! Those are most of them I know. Anymore you recommend? And are you not getting notifications?

Update notifications are working fine on my SGS4 (though I turned them off this morning).
Used the app during my commute this morning. Working great. Already shared a few links.
I'm thinking that it would be nice to be able to toggle notifications by feed. Say like I just wanted to know when Car and Driver, and Road & Track were updated, but not others.

I haven't got many posts, so I still have restriction when it comes to posting (and editing my posts) speed, sorry for confusing posts...
I didn't get notifications yet, but give it just a bit more time (it's possible that I've changed something outside of the app, so it could be my bad). I'll report on this again.
I'm sure plenty of people would be interested in tuner sites rss, so this could be nice to add, but it can wait (because that will probably demand special category if you put in many sources).
Also, if you need beta testers, I'm your man

Thanks a lot and that will probably be in future versions ;D
Just to quickly reply, updates work normally, it wasn't apps fault they didn't pop up previously!

Glad to hear
I've tried the app on both tablet, and a phone, and it looks good on both. One thing surprised me - my phone has KitKat on it, no flash, yet it seems I've played a pure flash video from the app (it wasn't in videos section, but a part of the article).

Not sure, to be honest. It was pretty early in the morning, so it's possible that I was just still sleepy.
