AContact(Advanced contact manager) small, pluggable, themable - you can't miss this - Android Apps and Games

If you are looking for something different, then this is it. AContact is different from most of the contact managers in the market, with tons of features, to list a few:
* Pluggable, which means the app is small (less than 700k) and fast. You only install the components you need.
* Innovative way of two columns contact display, can list more than 30 contacts in our 480*854 test phone.
* Swipable screens, saves you the trouble to reach tabs in order to swich functions, saves you the trouble to click tabs
* T9 keyboard with integrated call logs
* Fully customizable - themes, text sizes, layouts, call log display options, etc..
And many other plugins like groups manager, enhanced call statistics/managers, favorite contact etc..
Try it out.
Note: You can download from android market, by search "movesti" as keyword. We strongly suggest that you do this. That way you can awlays catch the latest update/bug fixes.
Also, attached are the main app and plugins.

Its awesome. Well done man. One thing. I would like to link directly to contacts... How to do that?

that's something i'd like to have too. You can make a shortcut to any of the plugins, but you can't have seperate shortcuts to both dialer and contacts (only to your default screen). Unless i'm missing some option...
edit: otherwise a really great app!

I absolutely love this . It's very fast and looks slick and beautiful. Very impressed. Took me a second or two to work out how to move to the contact list though. That's probably my failing rather than the apps though :S.

Hi,
Looks great, fast. I like it.
Suggestions:
-search contacts
-hidable keyboard in contact list
-contact details/edit takes me to original "edit/details app"
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Great App, love it so far!
Some suggestions though:
- In T9 Dialer, make all characters searchable, e.g. make pressing '3' also search for è or é, I'm currently having issues searching for names like René
- In Contacts, it would be nice to have a second line for each contact, displaying group, or default number etc. (should be optional)

You could add a shourtcut to the specific activities:
--> ContactList(com.movesti.android.app.quickcontact.activity.ContactListActivity) to directly go to Contacts
--> Dialer(com.movesti.android.app.quickcontact.activity.DialerActivity) to directly go to Dialer

thanks, that's a nice workaround (not perfect, as you can't swype into the dialer or the other options when you open it over the activity. nontheless an improvement though)
I'd also like the implementation of your suggestions. The umlaut's a *****

this is awesome, thanks

That is just great. I only whish it was able to search for special chars such čř etc...

Really like this app! Especially how fast it is. The favorites add-on is also very cool.

Right.There no option to hide the icon as you already noticed.
They all have an icon on the left like Calendar+ too.
Basically only German and English are in the installation pack. The below separate languages files are available.
Languages files:
Czech
Italian
Dutch
Russian
Right click and use save as "language.dat" i.e "NLD.dat" and copy onto "\Programs\TodayAgenda" on your device.
Check if regional settings are set to the right language, i.e. "dutch" for "NLD"
To activate the chosen language, deactivate and activate TodayAgenda again in "Settings","Today","Items"
If you like to translate TodayAgenda into your own language check here
[Last update: 11/17/2008] One blank to much in appointments with no location
One small request for this excellent plug-in
An option to show only the "due date" in task line (option already exists to show start and due dates). I already change the color of a task if the original start date is later than today, so I don't really need to know when a task started. And being at the end of the line it's often hard to see the due date. Trying to avoid the need to wrap text.
And, any additional integration with ThumbCal would be welcome. I think these two apps compliment each other.
Thanks

hendrixus said:

Well, the color helps to determine if the start date for a task is later than today, but the real issue is not being able to see the due date. For example, currently a task looks like this:
Task: Go shopping at supermarket (02.Aug/03.Aug) .
Often the due date gets clipped off on my screen so I have to assume it is the same as the start date or open the task to check.
My suggestion would be to offer a user selectable option:
Task: Go shopping at supermarket (03.Aug).
Where only the due date would display.
Currently my workaround is shortening/abbreviating the subject line like:
Task: Go shopping (02.Aug/03.Aug).
This works in most cases but is sometimes impractical.
This is the best appointment/task plugin app I have ever used (been using PPC's since the beginning) and this little workaround does not keep me from recommending this app to anyone who asks. It works great now, but I look forward to any incremental improvements that get added to future releases.
I have a question. Is this tiny little app in further development? Because i start a new thread in the next few days for all possible manila today page add-ins... Some information will be helpfull.

Replacement ('backend') calendar app with advanced features?

I'm currently using Pure Calendar widget with the HTC Sense Calendar to create entries, etc.
But, the Sense calendar is so basic it is unbelievable! I've tried searching all the calendar apps but most seem to focus on the 'front end'/widget aspect of things. I'm not even able to put a 'priority/importance status'!
Can anyone please recommend a decent replace app? Something akin to Pocket Informant or Agenda Fusion on the WinMo platform.
EDIT: I see Pocket Informant may be releasing for Android in the near future.
Yeah, I'd love to see a fully featured calendar app as well. I'm currently using CalendarPad on my X10, as it has a better interface than the stock SE calendar. However, it uses the stock event entry interface, which could definitely use some enhancements.
Biggest thing of interest for me would be for it to have an auto-entry list for the fields, so I'm not manually typing something like "Mom & Dad's" every time I have an event at their place. On my old iPAQ (running WinMo 6.1) I had a calendar app (SBSH Calendar, iirc) where I could build a list of commonly used locations, events, etc, and then pull from that when entering a new event.
@sh500
You can try Jorte. It at least as the important/non-important status for an event.
@saltorio
When making a new event in Jorte, you can choose existing event names to use or modify. Same goes for the location field. It's also ridiculously customizable (you can color code based on day of week or type of event or both) so I'm sure you can get the interface the way you want.
Check it out http://www.jorte.net/english/jorte.html
I recommend Jorte too. It is the best calendar application I have ever tried. When you customize the look it looks just incredible too .

Thanks for the suggestion. I've installed the app and played around with it a bit. A few things noted:
- Doesn't integrated with Pure Calendar Widget (?).
- The widgets are not customisble (colour, etc).
- A very basic Task application. I currently use Astrid for this and it works well.
- Integration with existing calendar other than Google is very limited (important when it comes to sync'ing).
Definitely better than the HTC Sense Calendar in terms of interface and certain features.
I guess, just like anything else, when you're used to using something that almost does everything (Pocket Informant) any else will just not do
Thanks for the tip on Jorte. Wish it had a more interesting widget layout but other than that it looks to be what I can live with. Smooth Calendars 3 even outlook was bad considering I hold baseball games on my calendar.
Widgets in Jorte are totally customizable... infinite possibilities of recolouring. To get into settings you must choose a scheme first, then you can edit it. It is a kind of minigame first but you will quickly get it right.

I think I found what you're talking about: choose a style, then customize. But the only things I saw adjustable for the widget were 2 things, one of which was the widget border color. I just want to enlarge the text on the widget! IMO it's way too small.
I have three issues with Jorte as a replacement for google calendar.
The text in the widgets needs to be adjustable.
If you copy your existing calendar(s) from google you can not edit the events
It does not import ics files
Yep, agreed with many of the issues raised. We need the best bits from all existing apps rolled into one and then just a few features thrown in for good measure.
Many argue that the Android is not a 'business phone' (hence the basic functionality) and also not have features such as proxy settings. I totally disagree with that reason, many 'business' functions seem quite simple to implement and the OS is more than capable. Oh sync'ing is another one where WM wins (!)
I need a better calendar app too. My needs are better notification options. Ability to change length of snooze for an eventis one feature I need.. and to be able to snooze specific notifications while being able to dismiss others..
Needs to be more blackberry like.

[APP/MOD] ADW.Launcher.MB.Playground for CyanogenMod 7 [5/24/11 v0.1.1]

My changes have been merged into CM7!
I'm starting this thread to test out modifications
This is for CyanogenMod 7, I offer no help getting this to work on anything else.
This version is an update to the ADW.Launcher that already in installed on CM7 so you will keep all your existing settings.
You can also uninstall this version at any time and ADW.Launcher will revert back to the original ADW.Launcher.
As always with these kinds of things, I am not responsible if something goes wrong, so use at your own risk.
Source is now on github and can be viewed here!
My first focus is on application management such as groups/catalogs
0.1.1 Eye Candy Release
Added:
* Backup/Restore of desktop data now also saves categories
* Screen transitions just because I like them and it can get tiresome working of usability stuff.
0.1.0 (Merged into CM7)
Added:
* If no categories, not title shows in the drawer (CM7 requirement so users who don't use categories don't see a change)
* Option to turn off the title in the drawer even if you have categories.
0.0.9
Fixed:
* Better drawer switching on swipe
0.0.8
Added:
* UNCATEGORIZED group now hides when empty
* In preparation to submit to CM7, I have added an option to enable the UNGROUPED group. Disabling the option will revert to the old way of showing the ALL group and does not show the UNCATEGORIZED group.
Changed:
* Renamed UNGROUPED to UNCATEGORIZED
0.0.7
Added:
* Application Info and Market support for Live Folders* Restore icon menu option when changing an icon
Fixed:
* Swipe on empty UNGROUPED folder fixed
0.0.6 (w/Drawer to home screen drag FC fixed)
Changed:
* Editing a user folder now lets you set a custom icon. Not being able to set an icon on a custom folder makes them less attractive for use since I can't visually label it.
Fixed:
* Fixed a drawing issue when opening the vertical drawer that causes the icons to jump
0.0.5
Changed:
* Swipe to change groups in the drawer. Up/down swipes are used for in the Horizontal pagination drawer and left/right swipes are used in the Vertical plain drawer style.
* Search and Wallpaper have been pushed to the more button in the launcher's menu. There are other options are are used more than these.
* Added Manage Applications to the launcher's menu.
0.0.4
Changed:
* Added Edit button on popup menu for Folders so it's easier to rename them. (Eventually I want to add the ability to change the icon on folders just like yo can with apps)
Fixed:
* FC when picking up Shortcuts
0.0.3
Changed:
* Moved System Settings so it's visible in menu, while Lock Desktop has been relegated to More menu. I use Setting WAY more that lock/unlock desktop.
* The group name is now always displayed at the top of the drawer. Gone is the animation showing the name.
0.0.2
Changed:
* Add ADW Settings to menu as they get removed from System Settings
Fixed:
* Fixed so install survives reboot
0.0.1
Features:
* The application popup menu replaces "Uninstall" with "Settings". This takes you to the Application Info window instead. There is an uninstall button on this screen, but also has a lot of other useful information.
* Added "Market" to the application popup window. This takes you to the application in the Market App. Great for quickly seeing updates/comments.
* Added "Choose Group" to the application popup window. This allows you to take an application and pick what groups you want it in. As apposed to opening the group and finding the application to add. Very efficient for newly installed apps.
* The popup menu can now be used in the app drawer. This gives access to the new settings, market and choose group options.
* Replaced drawer's ALL with UNGROUPED. Gone is the ALL list of applications in the app drawer. It has been replaced by the UNGROUPED list. This list only shows the apps that have no group assigned. As you move apps to groups, this list shrinks and makes it easier to find newly installed apps.
* Opening/Changing groups in the app drawer does a quick animation to tell you the name of the group.
Known Issues:
* If there are no apps in the UNGROUPED, the group still shows.
Please post your comments!
If i get enough good feedback, I'll start down the road to getting these changes merged into CM7.
Good job man, really nice improvements.
Just one little suggestions, i wish i could see the group label (top or bottom) on the drawer, insted of it fadind on bottom, that way u allway know what group of apps you are on.
Other than that really digging it. One more thing, i feel noobish asking this but i cant find it, how do you get to adw settings??

true story
I really like this! One suggestion (unless I just don't know how to do it) would be to allow the ability to swype between groups.
Nice work... Big fan of ADW and these mods.
Suggestion: I'm a proponent of the stupid search button --> useless! Besides its easy to map it to other soft key buttons if one needs it... I say replace it with the manage applications button similar to how it is in the stock launcher or put it under the more button.
I'm running EX unfortunately...
It's almost the perfect launcher except for the terrible groups structure. It's just wrong all the way.
I think custom menus, that you can navigate through swyping left to right, is the way to go...
I would also like a swipe-able app drawer to cycle through the groups.
Hey!
This looks pretty cool. I really like that you moved "lock desktop" as I never use it, but I accidentally hit it sometimes.
I actually had some issues with the locked desktop with ADW recently, and I was wondering if this would be a good place to mention my problem.
As it is, if the desktop is locked and you don't realize it (since I had hit it accidentally), its very confusing when you try to adjust something! The screen vibrates to acknowledge a long press, but nothing else happens. It would be great if you had a short TOAST popup ( http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/Toast.html ) that said "Desktop Locked" when the user tries to move something and the desktop is locked.
Its a simple feature but it really had me confused for a while! Since I was on a nightly build I just assumed something was broken, which led me astray from the real solution!
I think a little toast popup for that would rock!

Is it normal to lost my ADW settings selection for the settings menu? Other than that, I am digging this!

Meta Widget - create widgets from any website content

META WIDGET
Meta is a unique app that can turn virtually any online content into dynamic, interactive widgets.
Simply browse to a website, pick a column of text, link or image and enjoy this information right on your home screen!
Why is this cool you ask? Because almost anything can be parsed out of a website - images, blogrolls, RSS feeds or entire windows.
Any widget created through Meta can be customized and automatically updated, or updated on user interaction.
Features
★ Create widgets from almost any website element
★ Parse graphs and images
★ Extract statistics and information from authorized sites
★ Configure widgets (background, alignment, etc.)
★ Automatic updates
★ User defined click actions
★ Lots of other cool stuff
Status
The app is currently quite stable, but we still prefer to call it a beta. So please, do write to us with suggestions or bug reports!
Play Store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fahrbot.apps.metawidget
The free app has everything but automatic updates. Please buy the Key - that would help us a lot
Screens
Guys has anyone had issues with the keyboard not popping up in the internal browser?
Any issues with this first build of the meta widget?
Its a cool idea, not exactly what i thought it was. You can have it make a widget of buttons on a web page. I run my little sisters Etsy store, and there is no good etsy app. I used the app to go to the shop page and basically what it does is make a widget with the top buttons that i can click and will open up my browser. I was hoping it would show if i had messages, activity, etc...
I really like the idea, yet i dont know what I will use it for.

You selected the wrong element. It shows you ANY element (static or dynamic) in a webpage. If you log into the store, go to the private messaging area and click the "unread messages" number, it will show you how many you have.
For example - i use it to extract the impressions graphs from my advertising analytics service.
Can you have it poll multiple things, such as activities and conversations? Or would that have to be 2 widgets?

You can poll multiple things separately. We are working on a way to do this better in our upcoming widgets! project. Here though you can only select one element at a time.
Atm the best way to line things up is to use a launcher that can overlap widgets.
Btw the widgets! project should be in beta quite soon as well
Awesome. Keep up the good work.

[APP][4.2+] Easy Smart Phone

What is Easy Smart Phone?
Easy Smart Phone is a launcher app with big fonts, big icons and simplified user interface. Its main target is elderly people who has problems with small text and complex gestures on smart phone. Easy Smart Phone will make things easier for them.
What is current status?
Easy Smart Phone is under development and it is between alpha and beta status. Most of core functions has been developed but there are some missing features and could have bugs.

Did you mean should I decrease text size?
Is there anybody has an idea, if I upload this app to Google Play Store, will Google suspend this app and my account? Because of this app asks these sensitive permissions:
android.permission.READ_CALL_LOG
android.permission.RECEIVE_SMS
android.permission.READ_SMS
android.permission.WRITE_SMS
android.permission.SEND_SMS
Even I present documentation why I need these permissions, is it possible that google may suspend my app and my developer account?

1. I mean icon padding. Its placed to near one and another. You must made some ui change about icon padding side right and left and up down too. I test it with medium size in setting.
2. You need to up icon size resolution. In my FHD phone it look brushed.
3. In contact you must tweak it. Every time i open contact its delay couple of seconds. My contact is 600 person.
4. In SMS you must made some change for sender and receiver. I think its good if you use different alignment. Left for ingoing sms and right for outgoing.
5. In contact I prefer list option other than icon because it made hard too see long name contact.
Maybe that from me now. I really miss app like this for my parent. Sorry for my english

Thank you for these valuable feedbacks. I have added this list to my to do list.
1) I already have plans to add padding to icons.
2) I think I will try to make an option for text size: big, medium and small like icons. Current text size should be big or medium size.
3) I tried to speed up to opening contacts, sms list and call log. But I failed before. They are really slow. Espacially SMS list is too slow, if you have too much messages. Maybe I will try to load them partially.
4) I will think about this idea.
5) I am considering there will be another contacts page as list. so it will be user selectable: list or grid.

Number 1 and 2 in this list has been implemented with version 0.0.5.
1) Added some padding after each row. Not decided yet to add padding between columns.
2) Replaced most icons with higher resolution icons. More icons will be replaced in next versions.
