[App][1.6+] Whistle App, Trigger your phone with whistle - Testers wanted - Android Apps and Games

Hi all, I've published my first app and would like your advices, it's called Whistle App listens for a whistle and responses with user defined image presentation and sound playing.
in fact i'm working on an open source project which provides audio analysis api for java applications (android compatible), i want to test whether it works on different devices, thanks!
Market link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.whistleapp
Project on Google code: http://code.google.com/p/musicg-sound-api/

Won't this application be heavy on battery?

I would like to test for you but unfortunately its incompatible with my galaxy mini. Can you expand the compatibility range? Thanks

It only works when you start the problem, it's not an app in background service. Actually i've a thinking to make it as service but as you said, it would be a battery demanding issue

I've checked and it supports with the device Galaxy Mini(GT-S5570), have you got any error message during the installation?

same thinking here. But i've tried the unlock permission is allowed to unlock and bring to this app only. If the app is waken by a whistle, after the user quit this app, he still need to unlock the screen by his finger. It may have a proper way to unlock the screen by an activity, i hope.

[APP] SayMyName Dessert

Hello,
At the moment I'm working on a new version of SayMyName Dessert. It's my first app (but it's already on the Android Market for more than a year ) and I just can't stop developing it. Mostly, I blame my users for that. You send me feature-requests, bug-reports, good feedback, bad feedback... even donations!
Currently there are two versions of SayMyName available at the Android Market. One for Cupcakes, and one for Donuts and beyond.
With the upcoming version of SayMyName, I want to merge those versions, fix old, very annoying bugs and add some often requested features.
Why I'm telling you that? Because I need even more feedback, more testers, more contributers D) and some guys who translate my app into various languages.
So, if you want to help me, please download the attached .apk and give me some feedback / requests / whatever comes to your mind. Just leave a reply here at xda or send me a mail. (tomtasche AT gmail)
Thank you very much
Tom
P.S.: If you want to try the old, buggy version of SayMyName, feel free to search the Android Market for "SayMyName Dessert".
edit:
I forgot to mention what this app is for.
Official market-description:
"Want to know who's calling you without looking at your phone? SayMyName reads out loud the name saved in your adressbook and tells you who's calling.
- reads SMS, GMail and K9-Mail too
- very customizable
- discreet mode
- Locale Plug-in
- open-source
- supports non-latin languages too
See website for changelog, etc."
edit:
Changelog:
- reads nicknames!
- fixes, fixes, fixes.
- much more
- mute gestures
- read number-/mail-type (custom labels supported too!)
- auto translate messages (enable "translate")
- improved widget
- fixes
- pause music during speech on phones with Android 2.2
- sk, cs and de translations by David K. (thanks! )
- supports people who can't find TTS Extended in Android Market / don't have access to Android Market
Planned features in near future:
- more translations (any volunteers?)
- bluetooth (maybe I found somebody who can help me! )
edit:
If you want to help translate, download this file and translate the text between the tags:
Code:
<string name="...">TRANSLATE THIS</string>
Return the translated file to me afterwards.
Thank you very much
Tom
PS: Please let me know if you want me to mention your name / mail-address / website.

Thanks! Tell me if you miss something.
I just tried the app for SMS notifications, but it gets interrupted by the notification. I'd like the notification to come first, followed by the announce and then the message. As it is now half the announcement gets killed by the notification.
I tried setting both Reading break and speech delay to 5 (seconds?), but the announcement started immediately anyway.
The app also seems to open a TTS-channel on start, causing noticeable hiss for a couple of seconds.
And the locale-plug-in, is it a separate download? Couldn't see it in Tasker even if I force-stopped it.
Your app seems to perform all the functions I want from TTS-notifications, now I only have to wait for the engine to not sound like a broken record in my language.

Unfortunately I'm not responsible for the voice. It comes from Android, but the AT&T sample is very impressive!

Thanks

By the way, you can change the voice in "Speech settings" (linked in SayMyName). Change the "Engine" to "Pico TTS" and you'll get a female voice.

Excellent.
A slightly more convoluted feature request: Do you think it would be possible to change the TTS-language based on which contact a text message comes from? Say for instance if the contacts had TTS=en_US or TTS=sv_SE or any other preferred language in the notes-section?
The reason for this request is of course that I receive messages in different languages depending on the contact, so if I just decide on a language half the time it'll sound even worse than necessary.

Thanks for the hint, but it doesn't seem to work. Probably because I don't use EN/FR/DE/ES.

When I tried the old version from the market the notifications didn't pause the music or podcasts so the text reading was down out by the audio. Using btunes for music and google listen for podcasts. Any progress on this?

Any idea what's going on Tom?
EDIT: Tried the earlier .6.3 and it seems the app is trying to search the Market for "pname:com.google.tts" doesn't find anything matching that though and just sticks on that screen

(App) Samsung ChatON service

Free messenger service from Samsung. Works on Android phones, Samsung Bada devices, and feature phones. Also devices on other mobile platforms as well like iOS and BlackBerry. Also web client to work from PC.
Check http://www.chaton.com/
Check video on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMPEm147BPo
Reported first on: http://samsungtomorrow.com/1567/
Official Samsung blog: http://translate.google.com/transla...amsung.com/index.jsp&sl=ko&tl=en&hl=&ie=UTF-8
Rumored to be launched in IFA Berlin.
It's kind of like WhatsApp, but what I really like about ChatON is the fact that you can access it from the web.
I'll sure take a look, when it comes out!
Hopefully this is good sounds fantastic. We need more competitors rolling out messaging services to rival and or make a better product close as BBM.
sounds great.
When will this be available for download??
Wanna give this a try, hope it's good and catches on.

Market or Samsung Apps! Search 'ChatON' in Samsung Apps, or search for 'Samsung ChatON' in the Market, be sure to +1 it!
I was really looking forward to use this app but it seems its not compatible with landscape oriented phones. I have the Samsung Galaxy pro and it appears that its not compatible. I don't know how they didn't make it compatible with my phone being that it has a hardware keyboard and its mainly use for messaging. I hope they solve this because its not going to be my phone only but the two new galaxy pros.
Edit: I installed with the apk and apparently it works in landscape also. All that is left is that the verification code arrives in my phone.

Please note, the Zip is NOT flashable.

Bizarre. I downloaded the ZIP and installed on my device, but the market link says it is not compatible with my device model. Um, it's installed and running. Now, I still have not gotten the verification code via sms, but it is installed and running. Way to go Samsung.
Edit: It actually says it cannot be installed in my country (I'm in Canada), yet when I opened it, it knew I was in Canada and set the country code properly.)

I installed it first time using samsung Apps (where the APK is from) and got the verification code instantly.
I've removed it and installed from the market (so I can get proper updates) and yeah.... no verification code
I say give it time, probably too many requests
Yeah, that's what I figured. It most likely is not available in my country right now as well because they are trying to "roll" it out over a few countries so there isn't so many requests for codes. Us "geeks" jumping the gun

Free Remote Android Support App

Zikk is unique mobile to mobile remote support app.
So what's so special about Zikk?
It is designed for consumers and not for IT depatments and operators,
therefore it is extremely simple and user friendly.
It provides full privacy protection - no screen sharing, and no access to SMS, email, etc.
It doesn't require constant internet access, and doesn't prevent the recipient from using his
phone for other purposes during the process.
It supports all Android devices (2.2 and above).
In addition to remote support, Zikk contains a local settings menu which uses Zikk's simple
and friendly interface.
When people have a hard time setting up their smartphones, they ask help from their friends
and family - Zikk enables users to help each other.
APK attached. Also available on Google-Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zikk.alpha)
where you will also find a short and helpful demo video. You van also find the video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsP9-Lpfwpk).
So both people need Zikk installed, I presume? Does the person you are helping get prompted to download it?

Correct. If the selected contact does not have the app, the user will be asked to allow sending
an automatic SMS with a link to the download page. There is also a share option where you can
send this message (via SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) to one or more people.

The current version is designed for Android phones does not support WiFi-only tablets or
large screen tablets, however in a few weeks I will publish the tablet version, which will
include UI adjustments, tablet related features and a different registration process.
Sounds AMAZING! I'd really like to use this to help my friends and family. I live in India though
No worries, I'll wait
fantastic idea!!! this will surely take off!! kudos to the OP!!
how far this app will go ? I mean can I help someone from anywhere ?
What about phone types? What if my phone is a Nexus and the other device is a HTC?

I like the app a lot, but what make it one of the best is if I could move, install, & uninstall system apps, and a root file manager so that we can help rooted users also
uninstalled this app from my Galaxy Note i717 and now the home screen is gone and I cant get back into recovery?

Actually a version for rooted users is an interesting idea. Not sure how common "less tech savvy"
rooted users are though. If you have more ideas for features for rooted users I would love to hear them.
I actually have a friend who is just getting into root use who calls for advice when he needs it. Let's be honest we were all beginners once and maybe could have used a little hand. He moved recently so there is distance involved now. This looks like a great idea.
I would love to have access to the settings menus, root file explorer and perhaps apps he already has installed such as set CPU or apps of that nature.
Beginners in root use are just as confused by root abilities as beginners in android are of it's stock features at times.
It would be really great to be able to start a log cat app and have your friend do something that normally causes a crash for example if they are not advanced enough to run one themselves. A current issue I have on hand. Trying to explain how to run one and sending videos to watch.
Hope this keeps going :thumbup:

Hi.
I have 2 ideas (requests?).
1. Like a monolingal which is a OSX's program. It will keep some locales which we chosed and delete the other languages.
2. Additional Locale. not like a morelocale2 and so on. additional locale which device have not (not hidden). Normaly, it's too difficult for noob ( I heard specilist can add locale).
Cheers.
another idea: an app that turn screen on a black screen and the icon of notification whenever notification come up (and screen is turn off of course). can you?

I started creating my own app and after 15 minutes clicking on their control panel(no programming,just clicks) I made app in what user could make effects on their photos,paint photos,play music,play videos,have notepad,chat and stream music. They got literally 1000's of features on their control panel I think this could be a gold mine And I read something that they have free app development and so on. Aaand you can change everything all the backgrounds,colors,tabs...and you instantly see it on that same page through their simulator..don't know how they managed to do that but it is super handy...I am super excited at the moment..time to get some apps on apple and play store

[APP] [+4.0] Whatsapp Web (Tablet/Phablet)

WHATSAPP WEB
HI everyone! I bet that a lot of us have a smartphone and a tablet, maybe for work, for gaming, or maybe just to have a better experience with a large screen device. it depends. Everyone also has Whatsapp to get in touch with friends on their phone, but i know that a lot of people wanted to use it also on tablets. For those who already tried it, i know too, there's a way to make it work and it's called "Chrome". In Chrome you can use "Request as a Desktop Site" to reach your goal but..who would like to have always open a browser that consumes RAM and battery? No one i guess. So i decided to make an app that let you Whatsapp Web on your Tablet/Phablet without the need of using a browser. Obviously it consumes less resources and it's battery friendly. Very simple.
1) Install the app
2) Open it
3) Scan the QR code with your smartphone
4) Have fun!
**PAY ATTENTION**
THE APP HAS BEEN TESTED WITH A COUPLE OF TABLETS SUCH AS GALAXY TAB S2, GALAXY TAB 3, GALAXY TB S. IT HAS BEEN ALSO TESTED WITH SOME SMARTPHONES (for testing purpose only) SUCH AS GALAXY CORE 2, GALAXY A3, GALAXY A5, LG SPIRIT 4G. WORKED FINE WITH ALL OF THEM. IF YOU CANNOT USE WHATSAPP WEB, PROBABLY THERE WILL BE AN USER AGENT PROBLEM. JUST LET ME KNOW AND I'LL TRY TO FIX.
**NOTE**
The app uses whatsapp name's and icon just because i'm not planning to upload it on Playstore. It was an app for myself that i decided to share here with you, so maybe it can be useful for someone else. Obviously i'm not affiliated with Whatsapp Inc. and all rights belongs to their respective owners.
Here some screenshot captured on my Galaxy Tab S2:

Thank you
Thanks dev. I was searching for an app like that. Original app consumes a lot resources.

if this is an autonomous app why do we need to instal through another app? Installing the app you atached shouldn´t be enough? Why do we have to scan that bar code?
Please explain. thanks

It's simple, user cannot use whatsapp without a verification and cannot use one account on multiple devices. If you go on your pc to this website "web.whatsapp.com" you'll see the qr code to be scanned. This step is necessary and allows the connection between your phone and whatsapp web. Unfortunately this cannot be avoided. This app "wraps" the desktop site of whatsapp web and allows users with a tablet without 4g to use it on their devices without the need of a Pc and, obviously on the go. If you want to learn more, please go here. Hope it helps

Ok, many thanks for your complete information
Hi,
thanks for the app, it's working pretty well. But scrolling horizontally while holding my phone in portrait doesn't really work. Maybe it's an easy fix?

Thanks for your app!
Unfortunately I encountered an issue:
I can't leave the app. Tried to push Back-Button, but nothing happened.

The app is designed for tablet and phablet devices because it works best in landscape mode (on big screens). However it seems to be a webview problem. Unfortunately it's not an app bug, so i don't know if i can make something to workaround this issue. I'll try

Thank you. Hope you will find a fix.
Hi, more explanation on the non-exit issue:
When I hit the Back-Button, the thin dark green line in the top area flashes shortly. So pushing button seems to be recognized, but nothing happens.

Hello! Just quit the app by deleting it from "recents". Actually there isn't a "back to exit" option, but i'm looking into it. Thanks for using WW
I love this app, thank you for sharing.
Works well on my Tab S2. I have a small problem though, sending/attaching photos does not work. I tap the paperclip icon then tap 'Photos and Videos', I can choose a photo from any source yet it does not do anything after that.
There is another similar app on the market called WhatsTablet where photo sending does work, but your app starts faster and looks better!
@op do you have the source code for this somewhere?
@Giuskiller

Hi, long time ago i purchased from codecanyon a template app called web2app (because i was new to android developement) . Unfortunately the twmplate wasn't showing pages in "Desktop" view, and i needed it for that. So i spent a few hours to learn and modify the code to make it work and show correctly desktop sites. After that i customized a little the UI. Actually i changed pc and haven't a backup of the code of the app...but if you're interested in, you can take a look here:
