Phone Codes.apk (35.7 KB, 1435 views) - version 1

What would make it even more appealing is if it came pre loaded with the most common codes.

Yes, I know. As far as I know, only the one that is predefined works for all Android phones. If I can find more codes, I update the app. immediately.
EDIT: I updated the app with some codes that work on most Android phones

Nice work. But i have a layout prob. Im not able to see some entries (can't scroll), and therefore, layout is f*ckd
we need scrollbars
phone: HTC Hero

So far, only the first button/code works on Nexus One. Anyone knows the other codes?

thanks for the app - on HTC Desire works only first code btw.

thanks but...
app has potential, but for the time being none of them have worked on my slide and the layout problem causes some issues, try either setting buttons to half screen size and putting them side by side(two per row) or letting us scroll. thanks

Nothing works on the evo. It just opens the dialer
I will have to hit the code thread in the evo forums and update the codes

nice job........

Hi, I updated the app for HVGA by implementing a scrollable main screen. (ver 1.2)

Here are some phone/android codes.

Version 1.3 works fine on Samsung galaxy i9000. It will be better if we can add more buttons.

Really, more buttons?

Good App, I like the ability to change the buttons. These phone code programs are rough to make work on every phone they really have to be geared toward a specific phone because each phone uses different codes for different stuff. Here is one I made for the Galaxy S Series: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772690
Some phones have the ability to type codes blocked out also (epic4g).

Some codes seem to be working on the epic though: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737594
But I can imagine why a provider like for example Sprint want to block out codes. That's no good stuff for the helpdesk and/or repair center

Yeah thats never a good thing for a company to turn that off. Hopefully Verison will not do that with the new fascinate.
The thread you posted seemed to be only about the Evo4G not the Epic4G.

[Q] I have looked everywhere - 'Tis impossible!

Hey guys, I have looked everyone, about 30 minutes on Google and 10 minutes on this site. My dad just bought a Samsung Omnia 7 and he had a default wallpaper which he LOVED, I updated the phone, and lost the wallpaper :/
The wallpaper was fantasy like. It had a castle type building on the right side, a river running down the middle, and some buildings on the left. It almost looked like a European city, very picturesque, it was night time.
I know this is a very strange request , but I cant find that wallpaper at all It came with the Omnia 7 (on T-Mobile UK contract).
Thanks for any help guys

lol, buy a new phone xD
no jk, just wait for some other omnia 7 user to give it to you

This it?

Save it to your PC & than use the Zune software to sync it to your device. Make sure not to delete it off your PC though. What ever you sync to you device will be deleted off your device if you delete it off the PC. I believe WP7 will ask your to crop it on the device when you set it to the BG.
Edit: Just edited the Image just in case, see attached.

Just FYI, you can disable the "delete from device when deleting from PC" feature in Zune. Go to Settings->Phone->Sync Options, and set it to Manual for whatever file type you don't want auto-deleted.
And you are correct, when you select a photo to use as your background that doesn't match the aspect ratio of the screen, the phone displays a crop screen so you can choose what portion you want to use.

Guys, it doesn't hurt to use the search or check the appropriate section, in this case Omnia
This has already been addressed here, you can find the real wallpaper there.

It usually happens if your screen density is different to 240 dpi. Have you modified it?

No i have not, but maybe the ROM flashed lately has. I just checked and it says i am on 120 dpi. If i change it to 240 it should work? This will not factory reset my phone right?
What i do not understand is how does the web market(not device market) know what my density is? Oh i forgot this is Google lol, they know everything one does with the phone.

It "Should" work. And no it will not reset the phone.
You'll be amazed how many apps are deemed incompatible with a higher dpi.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1205594
Use something like this:
http://market.android.com/details?id=com.wemobs.android.lcdresolution
And reboot.
It's worth Backing up first, just in case.

Now you've got me. The new market is fun. There's no reason why it shouldn't work.
You can try clearing market data in

As a final throw on 240 dpi.
Otherwise sorry I couldn't help.

Its not enough of an upgrade if any over datpiff to require a phone number.

Why?
Why did you start another thread for this app?
What was wrong with this one?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568649
There is a mass amount of information in the Android apps section. We certainly don't need multiple threads for the same app, by the same person.
I thought you were going to be removing the phone number requirement. Did you start this new thread to hide the phone number requirement complaints from the other thread?
Now I'm wondering if your app is shady, and simply farming phone numbers.
Please explain, because I am about to go on a crusade AGAINST this app.

this is what happened ----->>> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ms.android.mixtapes
my app was removed from the android market and the link about is a new one directly to mediafire. Im still working on the profile page and im definitely removing the phone number. If you want just type any number in the box doesnt make a difference to me, it can be all 1's if it makes you feel better.
hope this clears up the questions

Why did google remove it from the play store? Another reason to presume it's shady :/

Why start a new thread, and not just edit the old one? You could have made the old thread say whatever you wanted with whatever link you wanted, just by editing the post. You don't need to start an entirely new one. I have threads I started months ago where I still edit the first post with new and updated information.
Anyway, thanks for the clarification. I will be keeping my eye out for the removal of the phone number requirement.

someone sent a dcma complaint saying i was stealing intellectual property and violating copyright infringement. they did it out of spite or to remove me as competition from the market. everything in the app was designed by my graphic designer from scratch. and google didnt even care to warn me they just removed us.

Hi there, just wanted to share my latest app. Amazon daily app
If you are a user of the Amazon app-shop like me, you may have encounter the same problem as me:
- Being "forced" to download the free app of the day to add it to your account
Well you can still cancel the download once it's launch, but hey ... it was bothering me.
So here it is, with "Amazon daily app" you can see what is the app of the day, add it to your account, or download it (still need to get it by the amazon app).
Feel free to leave me comments and remarks.
If you do like the app or just want to help, a nice comment/rate on the app sotre wil be appreciated
And if you don't like it, there's plenty of apps that will certainly suit you on XDA (but no rate & comment will be appreciated ^^)
Play store link : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chimerique.AmazonDailyFreeApps.free
Cheers :highfive:

I've been waiting for this. I use the "free app of the day" app, but they're mostly things I'm not interested in so it'll be uninstalled soon. I much prefer the Amazon free apps, but unfortunately this isn't compatible with my phone (HTC One).
I'll be all over this as soon as I can be

Strange, can you tell me which version of Android you are running on your phone ?
Should definitly be compatible ...

It probably is more likely to be a version issue than a device issue. I'm on 4.2.2.

Nop, I've a GS2 under 4.2.2 and a LG 2X under 2.3
It's working fine on both ... from what I've read, It may come from resolution probleme ... I'll keep on the investigation ^^

It works for me now too. Thanks for sorting that
Edit: Why does it need login credentials? You don't need them to find out what the free app is.

Not that the app is not useful but you can also bookmark http://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps/b/ref=topnav_storetab_mas?ie=UTF8&node=2350149011 from pc or mobile device to see the app of the day and "purchase" it without downloading. This will work for all devices period.

True, that's why at the beginning I only wanted to load the webpage, and play with custom CSS, in sort to see only needed information, and have a more user friendly interface. But performance wasn't really there, so I decided to go a bit further in the process
The other objective (not sure it should be done) is to automate all this process, and just grab every day the free app. This is only if I found a nice way to keep the session open (token or whatever)
@Archer: The credential are not needed to see what's the free app. It's only asked once you decide to "buy" it (for free) with your amazon account. Basically the credential is always ask to authenticate yourself to amazon website, as I don't want (for now) to store your password.

Hi there, little heads up for the last version which now can give you a daily reminder!

Some people did ask for it, so I added the possibility to save your password and so not have to type it each time.
The password is encrypted and save.
But still be aware that this is no safe mesure, and you should definitly use a dummy account for this.
