[App] Suggestion: Flashlight app for flash-LED

Since the flash LED is almost useless for the camera application... maybe someone can come up with a small flashlight apllication for it in a touchflo/diamond layout?

Has anybody tried VJCandela? You never know it might work??
Cant try, aint got my Raph yet.

Just tried v0.3. Sorry to report it does not work But I'm sure someone on this forum will have a flashlight working for us soon enough I think that's all the camera light is really good for anyway.

anyone have an answer for this?
Just wondering... of course, as usual: "after the fact":
The battery on my car was dead, and yesterday I planned to rplace it with a new one... However, in my garage the lighting is awful, and I could'nt find the screws and bolts... ended up calling the mechanics, to come and boost my battery....
An app like this would have been very usefull... would have saved me about 40 Euro's...

You're assuming people will bother to search and read a little before asking questions. Don't.
And look at the dates of the posts in this thread...

Youtube Widget for T-mobile HD2

Hi,
I've used the search feature but not found much to help.
I've just got hold of a HD2 on T-mobile but it looks as though they've removed the youtube app from the phone.
Any ideas how I can get it back or get another youtube widget for the phone?
Thanks

I second that! Can anyone strip it from the original ROM?

Ever tried google?
Here you go. Try if it works for you:

You sir, are a real star thank you so much. this is exactly the version I wanted, as the m.youtube/app version is very basic apart from the selection screen scrolling which is cool.

Good man

Thanks for the download link. I have been wondering how I could get the app on my phone. One thing though, when you into data services and try to login to the YouTube app it's just saying "connection error"
I've tried WiFi and through TMOB, both connections say the same.. Any idea's? I would like to login so I can see all my subscriptions etc.

you need to phone t-mobile customer services. they treat youtube as an over-18 website and is hence restricted. phone them up and request they enable access - i think theyll ask your date of birth, if u 18 or over, then they will enable access.

That's mad. Surely they know I'm over 18, I just upgraded my contract with them when you have to over 18 for...
That's for the tip.

Just logged on to my T-mobile account and content log is removed.

I installed this on my tmobile (UK) HD2 and it stopped videos from playing! When I uninstalled it, they started working again. Any ideas how to fix this?

gents gents relax.what you need to do is go to m.google.com/youtube by using the internet explorer on your phone (will not work with opera or skyfire). after installation you should now have the working youtube app and the ability to watch your mp4s via the sense video player
alternatively you can update to a new official or cooked rom via hspl. I was like you guys until a few weeks ago and trust me once I started flashing my phone I've never looked back

Awesome G-sensor animated lock application

Can anyone port this to the HD2 ????????
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdbQAnPN4jU

wow this looks awesome !

Yet another toy... if you like this kind of fetish get an iPhone. It is the best in that area. Do not forget what PPC means.

You just can download it here: *CLICK*
Tried it and it does not work. Getting an error when I want to apply anything in settings...

Yes this looks great ,but how to download it? on developers site there is no download link ...
Ups got it

click on the title of the post.. then it will forward to the download

Hmm doesnt work.Error.....

This is what the site says about S'Skin Lock
S’Skin Lock Application has 1 setting menu to set locking time and screen backlight.
Currently they are working on Samsung Omnia only, I have tested them on HTC HD2 too but they aren’t running. If any of our readers got them to work on their devices let us know.

it's on
http://www.wmskins.com/blog/sskin-lock-new-animated-lockscreen-application-for-windows-mobiles

must have hardware detection inside, even on samsung it only work on certain model.

i would like to have that 2

i checked and it requires the flashlite_mmi.dll
it is available in Omnia2 dump OS.nb.
Dont know if it uses any more sensors from Omnia. I would like also to use this one on HD2. Any more advance ppl could help maybe?

Deleted.......

has anyone contacted the developers regarding a htc compatible version?

We can try to install the adobe flash lite 2.1. Now I can swtich on the setting button in the startMeun. But the srceen lock still can't run. >_<

NoNe said:
Whether I have sent an e-mail having asked there will be a support of other phones. I look forward to hearing. And program YellowMan, Butterfly I have started on the HD2 but G-sensor does not work in the program.
But the blocking picture is displayed also an unblocking works correctly. In Butterfly the butterfly flies at a touch to the screen as is shown in video, but the back background is static.

Which steps have u taken to make it work till now?
Maybe we could trick/hack the G-Sensor or smth.

I really don't see anything impressive in that. Actually useless to me. Just as a a guy at the begining of post said: Iphone like fetish... Nice, but useless.

Why can't we have something nice, even if it's useless?!
I completely understand: The iphone is a toy, the HD2 is a powerful device with endless productivity possibilities... But why does that have to mean that the opposite is also true - Only the iphone can have cool toys? Never understood that argument...

[XPosed Mod] HiGoogle - "Hi Galaxy" phrase opens Google Now instead of S-Voice

[XPosed Mod] HiGoogle - "Hi Galaxy" phrase opens Google Now instead of S-Voice
I present to you: my first ever XPosed Mod HiGoogle!
It's really my first original android app. The first one I didn't follow some sort of tutorial to make anyways. It opens Google Now natively when you say "Hi Galaxy" instead of the crappy S-Voice app. It took me forever to get this done, but in the end I learned a ton about how both Android and XPosed work. :good: So w00t for me, :good: chalk that one up as a personal accomplishment.
Anyways, it still needs S-Voice to run. S-Voice is what controls the always listening feature of the phone. in the future I plan on changing that, and perhaps changing the trigger phrase as well (fingers crossed!) So while we can't get rid of S-Voice yet, this removes the need to use a middle-man app like tasker to open it, which in the end, makes things a hair faster (and $6 cheaper.) I think we can all agree that faster is better.
So while it's not the perfect solution yet, it's a move in the right direction and hopefully more will come of it.
This has only been tested on 2 Notes so far, a T-Mo and a VZW, but it should work on any Samsung with 'Hi Galaxy" always listening support. I'm personally on version 11.2.2.0 of S-Voice but I'm not sure if that matters. Report any issues or and I will try to deal with them as fast as I can.
It's not my fault if you break stuff.
:good: <------ Hit my donate button and buy me a bud if you like it!:good:

Does this close s-voice when it opens, then open voice search?

No, currently it just opens Google Now over SVoice, as SVoice is what controls the service that listens for commands. I'll look into that though it's a good idea, I may be able to kill the app but leave the service running.

oh so sad so so sad... i thougth you are a magician and managed to change the Voice recognition phrase...The developer Skilllevel for that is like getting knox from 0x1 to 0x0....from what i've heard
There are already apps for your purposes. I use S for Switch Voice
But thank you very much for your developing and sharing. :good:
Instead you maybe could try to get the "OK Google" command working for German and every other language. Because when google fails with recognition you have to grab your phone and tap on the mic button or wait until the screen shuts down. It is only possible when Google now language is english. This is something which really annoyes...
cheers

Nice, (or should i say YeeHaw ) this is where my hopes were.
And do you think it is possible to change the wake up command from "Hi Galaxy" to anything we want too? I heard it's nearly impossible...but chainfire isn't the only magician around here...

That all depends. I found some type of file that looks like it might be some kind of a raw audio or a wav file possibly. I'm digging deeper into Samsung's code whenever I have time trying to understand what's going on. I'm gonna have to keep studying before I can get to that point, but I think that will be part of the natural progression of the updates to this app. Has Chainfire done any work on this?

No not that i've heard of. Today i recognized that the "Google Now launcher" works with "OK Google" in german. So maybe you can find something when making a code comparison to use the OK Google command no matter how your phone and or googles now language is...

How is this any better than one of those apps that does the same thing?

As of now, overhead.
This mod will rid you of one extra service running on your phone compared to those other apps. If all you want is Google Now instead of S-Voice then this is probably the better solution. If you want a bunch more options, use one of those other apps. I have more plans for the future but I was super excited to release my first contribution to the community :victory:

I think is a great idea. I for one have been using an app called S for Switch Voice that overrides SVoice and launches Google Now. It works great and dont have any problems and doesn't cause much or at the very least battery drain. But im willing to try this.

Ah I was looking for something like this, but that was before I installed the S5 launcher
Now I get the best of both. This is a good mod for those who want the stock launcher though! Good work.

until we get this phone setup with a proper thread on xda, post your tips and general questions here.

yeah lets hope
yeah lets hope for that.

that vivo root app doesnt work for me. it begins then i get google services crash which leads to a reboot, only for the app to finish with an X id imagine meaning unsuccessful .
edit:
turned it off charge, and it worked.
even with English some menus etc are still in Chinese . liaow are rolling the phone out now with an international rom so wonder if thats what we have which i doubt.

How are you guys liking the phone? Except for the fact that some of the sub menus still are in Chinese. I noticed a beta version of Fun Touch Rom 1.17.11 is up, can't read the changelog though as it's in Chinese!
I've gotten Photo+ to work, even printed out the picture to see if it worked and it did. Tried to get the navigation to work. In one of their Vivo videos, three students use the AR Navi in Finland, so I was hoping this could be used in Europe, and it probably still can only again all the submenus are in chinese. There are downloadble maps, but as far as I can tell only Chinese cities.
By the way I am Mars from Denmark on the Liaow page

I find that text on screen seems to break up words as it hits the edge of the screen instead of moving the entire word to a new line. Same when reading online text or in apps etc. No sub menu to change text size to fix this. Anyone know what the button under the finger print scanner is ?

Settings>Mix-Match>Font.... There you can change font size but still the same, breaking up words.

Found that in mix match. I'd imagine its to do with the translation from Chinese. We need an international ROM. Even the manuals in the phone are Chinese which is useless The button on the back is to take pictures with on the camera. I'll have a look at my maps see if I can sort it.

OK installed Google maps and turned on GPS data and WiFi. It did nothing. Searched my network again and picked the one I'm on then it seemed to work. Not sure if it knew were I lived based on my Google now location, but when I searched a route it asked me to start from my location. Seems to be working from that end. The maps won't find my location though when clicking the location button. So maybe there's a problem there with gps

Why want a sub-forum on XDA when there's a whole forum dedicated to international Vivo users? I assume the chances are low that a Xplay 3S sub-forum will ever be added to XDA...

I just registered for that forum, not too many people there yet though.
As for the GPS issue, yes it does take 20 mins for the first fix, then 1-2min for the second time you try. After that it Works perfectly.
The fingerprint scanner is a button as well. With air wake gestures enabled and blackscreen you can activate the phone by pressing the fingerprint button and Draw a V or M to activate the function of the choice.

Yeah, sure. The community still needs to grow and there're not many Vivo users outside of China. But hey, we need to start somewhere!

Hi to all Proud owners of "VIVO Xplay 3S", can anyone please advise how is the DTS-X sound quality?
Also do you get any preloaded 2k content on the phone?
How is the sound quality when playing music via stock headphones?
And last but not least do you know if this device support Wi-fi "AC" Standard or support for wi-fi "N" both 2.4 and 5 Ghz?
Any recommended site to order this Device ? As I live in Ireland.
Many Thanks

Hi mate from Ireland myself most of us if not all bought it from liaow . HiFi sound when enabled is amazing. It only works on vivos own apps video music etc. There was 2 or 3 vids preloaded for samples basically the ads floating around the web. Crystal clear. Not sure about the WiFi but it works good. I find the network signal isn't as good as my last phone. 4g works well. The translated text from Chinese to English is a bit messy . ie : words broken at edge of the screen . small glitches until the international ROM is released . overall I'm happy.
