I'm finishing a 2 month polishing in my app suite (D'Clock Live / Gold / D'Watchmaker) and I'm in final pre release phase.
The app is an analog clock editor that you can use as a full screen clock, a Live Wallpaper or a Widget 2x2 or 4x4. The clock can show time, battery, wifi and GSM signal for now with much more to come.
Feel free to drop by the app site at http://1010ti.me and try it. I'm also attaching the last version.
Every feedback would be more than welcome as tests were made mainly in Samsung Galaxy S and ZTE Blade.
Looks very nice, I will definitely check it out!
Thanks karyney. Feel free to drop me an email with your thoughts and questions (pmduque on gmail)
Download and installs fast...some nice looking clocks! Will report any issues. Htc incredible.
HTCInc-redibly re-ENGINEERED
Try the editor ( menu on main app screen and choose editor). That's the fun part!
It works nice on my Nexus One on stock GRI40. I don´t like the link under the clock to the website; if you click on the clock, sometimes that launches the website.
Not a bad choice in an overloaded clock app's market.

1010ti.me just went live! Look for it in Android market!
I just want to leave some screenshots from the application. As it's a LiveWallpaper, a widget, and a full clock editor, it's difficult to have it explained in still pictures...

My first Clock with 1010ti.me
First to say: Very good work, now my favourite clock! Thanks!
Used D'Watchmaker before and just tried out the new 1010ti.me
Made my first clock with battery indicator, here's the upload. Maybe somebody likes it.
Works pretty good so fare. Some FCs, but seems to be fixed with last update.
Things for the Wishing Well:
Adjusting the angles and positions is a bit tricky with the sliders.
It is hard to get objects fit together, if you want to create something off the middle (e.g. the battery indicator in my clock).
I would like to have an alternative input method, were I can insert numbers of the angles and position literally with the keyboard.
It would be nice if the widget automatically fits its size to the given area (e.g. with ADW-Launcher you could change the size of the widget). I have seen this behaviour with other widgets, so it must be possible
Edit: Posted Clock on 1010ti.me
Hi Jan,
Thank you for the feedback. I really like your clock. Don't you want to post it on the site?
Regarding your wishing well, in the actual version you have three options while dealing with sliders:
- use the slider itself which is good for the first crude placement;
- use the up/down volume button, good for fine adjustment;
- long press the slider title: a popup will show asking for numeric input, which is great for copying values from element to element.
I know this is "hidden" info but now that the release is out, I'll have time to sort out a user guide.
Regarding the autofit, I'll look into it
Hi Pedro,
Thanks for the quick answer. (I normally sleep at that time )
I will tweak my clock, now I know how to do it accurate, then post it on your site.
But I noticed after charging, that the battery hand pointed to 0, should be 100.
Don't yet know, if it is my design issue...
Edit: Setting „Hand divisions“ to 101 does the trick.
Btw.: Phone is Motorola Defy.
For the battery you need to invert the initial and final angle (so that for ex. a 1/4 circle, the initial angle should be 90 and the final 0). That's because the higher the battery goes the closer to the top you want it.
Did that help?
I just set the “Hand divisions„ to 101. Because the direction was Ok, the hand points correctly to 10, 20, ... 90. Just at 100 it pointed to 0. Which would be OK with a full circle .
But now it works fine.
The Defy gives the battery level in 10% steps, so it stays long at 100.
The 1% value is there, but in a different file.
Here is the first independent review of 1010ti.me (http://android-walker.com/?p=5706).
It's in Japanese but it has a nice walkthrough video that gives a good overview about the app.
Always nice to see Portuguese devs out here, cheers mate!
Trying your app right now... So far so good!
Very nice, coincidentally I installed this just hours before it was posted on the XDA RSS feed.
I really like the live wallpaper idea with custom background.
JanHimpIII's clock looks really nice too.
Edit: the import feature works great (straight from the website)
Downloaded and tried it on the Samsung Vibrant as well as the Huawei M860(Ascend) and they worked flawlessly. Great work! PMduque
I got a message in the middle of my LWP this morning saying 'grace period expired ,choose a free clock...'.
Thank you for all the comments!
Britose: the free version will display that message every 6 hours after activating one of the "non" free clocks (there are 6 free clocks stocked with the app). You just need to tap the clock and choose the "set as wallpaper" again.
The gold version does remove that restriction.
Hey guys, I have an app out called InvisiBright and I'm looking for your feedback. Here's a brief description:
Use search key hold or status bar shortcuts to activate an invisible overlay above any application. Then, simply swipe anywhere to adjust the brightness quickly. Done! It comes with other goodies like an auto-brightness toggle, a "tilt mode", and home screen shortcuts (for tablets) so....
Check it out!

Suggestions
Dan, thanks for starting the thread! Responsive Devs always get Donations
So, I was blown away to find InvisiBright. I've been using the Curvefish widget (just like, oh, everybody) and a year ago I thought it was hands-down the best. Not any more.
I was searching for something that might be integrated into the Notification Bar. Basically, just pull down the Notification Bar and there's the exact same things from the Curvefish widget; preset levels, toggle for AutoBrightness, and/or a slider.
Your app is a lot better than that. I stumbled across it from your DroidForums post.
Long Press Search should be a much more common feature, for tons of apps. Especially since it's just an option, easily changed, and SOO easy to code!
Good idea including it, and a pretty good Pro upgrade. Lite still works great, Pro is just a bit better.
Here are my suggestions, may or may not be good ideas, or even possible;
Semi-transparent (with user adjustable alpha) overlay on the (right) slider side, when changing the brightness level; then you can tell which part of the screen is Adjust, and which is Confirm
Sliding level indicator, (e.g. 3-px yellow line?) to go along with the Toast of percentage (user selected option, just like the "Show percentage" option)
Preset levels, preferably user-set; possibly snap the slider to the presets. Or maybe Far Right = Slider, Middle = Preset buttons, left = confirm
Shorter Toast duration after left-touching to set the level
Confirmation that the level has been set (but this might be addressed by the disappearing of the semi-transparent slider)
Vertical/horizontal slider option
Toggle for Auto Brightness EDIT: maybe "- Quick toggle back to auto-brightness with menu key" addresses this already... I haven't tried that Pro feature yet...
Common nerd favorites:

(All my info is in my sig)
By the way, you are in close competition with Brightness Rocker. It's a pretty clever alternate-use of the otherwise single purpose Vol Up/Down buttons. But you responded faster than Nikhil, and went to XDA, even! And you don't have the conflict with actually changing the Volume in order to adjust brightness. Maybe you could figure out how to intercept the Vol Up/Down keys as a different trigger, since some of us have Long Press Search mapped to Camera, Screenshot, QR Scan, etc.
Thanks again for showing interest in my app! Here's what I think:

These are all great ideas. They all slightly threaten the "invisibleness" of the overlay, but I don't see why they can't be options.

Does the XDA version hinge on only members having access to links posted? I'll consider this since I'd love to see the pro version gaining traction (whether or not I get the buck). Also, I'll try to open source it in about 1 month when the semester starts and my free time becomes non-existent
!!!
Wow! Correct answers on every single point!
A lot of XDA devs attach their .apk to a forum thread. I'm pretty sure you have to be a registered Member to download the file. Obviously, that's free and easy, but it's enough barrier that it keeps most of the riffraff out. Right off the top of my head, SetCPU is released like this, you could ask coolbho3000 about how well it works.
If/when you do Open Source it, you'll also need to have a slightly higher level for people to contribute, a $4 Donate app or something.
I can't promise that always works, but some of us will pay for good Devs to do good work.
Awesome app, works great on OG Droid running latest CM7.
Touch screen to launch...?
Other idea (I'm just throwing them out there, this one might be a lot of work)
SwipePad activates from a touch in a particular part of the screen (corner, side, etc.)
https://market.android.com/details?id=mobi.conduction.swipepad.android
Maybe InvisiBright could activate the same way; an option to press and hold for a second in the lower right to launch InvisiBright. In that case, some kind of visible feedback would be more necessary.
It might end up pretty similar to the popular SGS style bar
examples:

Notification Bar
I just noticed that you haven't overridden the Notification Bar when sliding the brightness. If my finger reaches the top of the screen and then slides back down, it will catch and pull down the Notif Bar, rather than lowering the brightness.
Not sure what the best way to address that would be...

There's a setting to adjust the buffers for touch mode.You can make the 100 percent spot far from the notification bar to avoid this issue (and your swipe will change the brightness slightly faster to compensate) . I remember adding these because I couldnt figure out how to override the notification bar without hiding it. I'll add it to my list and give it another go. Let me know if the buffers help.
Love it! I bought pro version on market. Keep up the great work.

I use swipepad and think the concept is great. I'll look into how it can be added, but for now you should be able to get a very similar effect with swipepad. Just grab the widget add-on and throw the InvisiBright pro widget onto your pad. I've never tried this, but I don't see why it wouldn't work....
Great app, best brightness control available.
For support bought the 3.0 version in the market.

BTW, can I change the key of making it start? Perhaps short tap on search button? Because the Google voice search is common feature for me rather then the Google search which I never use..
(And it also has no use if I'm not in home screen.)

Hi everyone,
Even unregistered I've been using this forum for some years. Now it's time to make my contribution.
I've seen some people requesting this app, and even I needed it, so I'm presenting it waiting for your feedback.
Some applications on market (like Notification Toggle, Elixir 2, etc) are doing more or less what I porpose, but on a different way. Also, as far as I know, no app does exactly the same.
So, here it is my proposal. StatusBarAddon is like an status bar mod, so you can "pull" power controls at any time, on any rom even without root.
This app is free and available on android market (search for):
StatusBarAddon
What it does:
"Pull" down power controls at any time (and on any app);
Costumizable controls;
Volume and brightness controls;
Compatible with all android 2.1-2.3 versions (sorry, no ICS support);
Compatible with the Android status bar;
Free.

Thank you for your suggestions, I'll try to implement that as soon as I can (I'll be busy for some time, for professional reasons).
The data toggle is a peculiar one, since Android does not provide a standard interface to enable/disable data, so I decided to not do hacks (like change the carrier apn). I'm not sure if I can make anything about data (and Sync).
Since I'm a new user, I'm not able to post links, sorry.
That's right, I completelly forget to test ICS, so no ICS support, sorry for any inconvenience.
You are wellcome
nice app, i like it, especially the brightness changer.
you said you need translations? i could translate to Estonian.
a bug is that the gps toogle wont work, it allways shows gps is on, pressing the button doesent change anything.
and please, make the icon invisible also
work pefectely on sgs2 i love it keep the good work
Unfortunately sys it's not compatible with my P999 running ICS.
Nice app
But you should add an option to make the background transparent with black or white icon and add a option to remove the icon in statut bar
I can maybe translate to french

The GPS switch uses the Android power control widget, so I'm sorry but I cannot provide any fix for that at the moment.
I've just released a new release wich makes it possible to hide the notification icon.
I'll now work (as soon as I can) on some costumization options.
Thank's for your feedback
Nice and usefull app. No problems so far om my HTC Wildfire.
Some suggestions:
add battery status
add volume levels for ringing tone, media, alarm.
tap on "sync" should do a "sync all" instead of going to the settings
make it possible to choose the order of the buttons (e.g. I don't use fllight mode that often and would like to enebale it, but somewhere near the end of the list).
Can do translation to Dutch/Nederlands.

That's your problem, get off stock already! Lol
The battery status is on my todo list, will probabilly be one of the next improvements. Also, I've already started to do something about the buttons order.
The different volume levels will certainly be considered.
For the sync toggle, it's the same situation as the data toggle, since I haven't already find a convenient to do it, but I'll keep searching for a solution.
Some users are having troubles with the bar (not working at all), but I can't reproduce this situation myself on my phone or in the emulator, so I can't provide any support at the time, sorry for that.
Thank you again for your feedback!
you should make it so that when you have only the bars (volume and brightness) activated then the box aboove, where the other options are, should dissapear.

Hi everybody,
I would like to present you my new app. If like me you forgot everything, I'm sure you will enjoyed it
It's called Goldfish Memory, so the goal is quite obvious It's a todo list, but a todo list mostly based on the location. I've noticed that when I've something to do, I know where to do it (at home, work, when leaving the subway, etc.) most than when to do it.
So with Goldfish Memory, when you create a new task you can set it a place and when you arrive at this place, you will receive an alert that you have something to do, whatever the time. Next, you can ask to be alerted again in 5 minutes or the next time you will come back to this place. It's quite simple and you can set any address you want.
As it's a todo list you can also simply define a date and hour at when you want to be alerted. If you combine both date and location, you will only be alerted when you arrived at the defined location, the day you've setted or, at the latest, at the hour defined.
It's a nice and simple app and I've just finished it so I would be happy if people try it and more if people like it ! Don't hesitate to give feedback (goods or bads) !
The app doesn't use GPS (too slow, not battery-friendly), only network location. The algorithm adapt itself to the current accuracy (which vary a lot) in order to find when to trigger a task. So don't worry, it will not drain your battery and it will work even inside buildings or underground.
The next fonctionnalities I've planned to implement are :
- synchronisation with some online todo list services (Google Tasks, RTM, etc...)
- add action buttons directly in the notification on Jelly Bean
- the possibility to repeat a task every days/weeks/months
- improve the algorithm for triggering a location-based task using the speed
- and more !
If you have other ideas, I would be glad to hear them.
It's free and on the Play Store so, if you are interested, you can try it now : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fourmob.geotasks
Great idea and app...but lets face it. GPS lock is slow on most devices and it kinda stops the whole purpose of this app. Now apart from that its a whole lot better then the paid apps that just give normal to do lists. Good job

Hi, thanks for your comment.
You're totally right, that's why I don't use GPS, only network location : always available and battery friendly. Accuracy isn't always great but I've made a small algorithm that adapts itself to the current accuracy. I tweak it regulary to improve it, it's also why I'm looking for feedback. I'm quite happy of it for now.

Great job, great idea, great design. :good:
Like gmaster1 said, its better than all paid apps I tried. Moreover, its free and without ads (very enjoyable).
Sometimes, Goldfish alerts me too far from the location I set. Not too bad because I snooze for 5 minutes later but it could be better! It would be interesting to accurate the position with real GPS fix. You can do this occasionally, randomly (with a heuristic) or thanks to an algorithm. What do you think about that ?

Thanks for you comment
Due to the network location provider used by the app, accuracy can vary a lot (from 200/500m to 1500m) so, with my algorithm, the trigger radius varies with the accuracy. I prefer that the app alerts you too early that never. If it's too early, you can always snooze it like you said.
But I'm actively working on this part. In a future release, I think the app will sometimes turn on the GPS or Wifi in order to have a better accuracy. I'm still working on when to do that and it will be optional because I know a lot a people don't like that apps turn on/off sensors without asking. So, stay tuned
very good and user friendly design. I like the app and its very helpfull

To be user friendly its one of my main goals. I've tried a lot of todo lists and if I've ended up making my own it's also because they tend to have too much options. In the end, they are more organizers than todo list. But me, I only need a todo list. So : Goldfish Memory

Ok. Had it for 3 days now and no probs but...the widget. I feel it should be resizeable on ics (like fb widget on ics tablets) im not sure if this is too much to ask but its just that when i only have 1 task the rest of the space take up too much space i could use for other widgets. Maybe a small scrollable widget would be easier to make then resizable. So i can have the big widget when i need it and a small one when i want it. Or maybe widget buttons that keeps the widget small but changes current task the widget shows with 2 buttons. And maybe (just as a widget extra) add +task , delete task and edit task buttons for a better widget ui (the app ui its self is great)

Yes, the widget is definitly something that will evolve in future releases. But, it is already resizable. Do you mean that it should be more resizable horizontally ?
Scrollable widget is already planned. Concerning more actions directly in the widget, I will think on how to integrate that.
I've planned a new release for the end of the week, so I will try to add the widget stuff in the next one.
This is an amazing idea. I love the concept and design of it. I have never really use any task reminder app before, but if i want to use one, that will be this app.

At which point it failed ? Are you using the quick task button or do you use the full form ? It's a strange bug because the only thing I can see now is that the app can't access to the internet (needed to make the translation from the coordinates to an human address). Do you have ICS with a quota for the network data ?

@Lieu10ant : Waou, thank you
@gmaster1 : very strange bug, I've never seen that. I will check the widget conf. But good news if it works.
¡Great idea! I don't really use this kind of apps but i've downloaded it to try it out as it seems like a friendly app.
Nice app, keep it up!
[App] ☆ Energy Bar - pulsating Battery Indicator! ☆ [1M+ Downloads]
Greetings!
Many of you who have a Windows Mobile past like me, might have instantly recognized the thin colorful line(s) in the above image. And for the new Android generation, introducing Energy Bar - a pulsating Battery indicator!
Energy Bar puts a thin line on top of your Status Bar whose length corresponds to your device's current Battery level.
Got a full charge? The line will cover the whole width of your screen.
Battery depleting? So will the length of Energy Bar.
After several iterations (thank you for the feedback, early testers), the App is now feature packed:
Energy Bar can be configured from a width of 1 pixel to cover the entire status bar
Energy Bar puts almost 0% load on CPU, as it wakes up only to reflect any change in battery level
Energy Bar's origin can be configured as left/center/right
Energy Bar can hide on fullscreen content (apps, videos, images, games etc)
Energy Bar can be configured to change colors automatically depending on the live battery level
Energy Bar could have a mono color/multiple color segments/gradient
You can literally assign any color in the world for your favorite configuration
Energy Bar as a cool pulsating animation whenever a power source is plugged into your device
There is something about visual over numbers that keeps you and your device's battery level in sync with just a glance. You may find it intuitive/effective/stylish way to read the battery level, let me know what you think

UPDATE E: New version, EB_4.0_XDA_BETA is now available in Downloads section.
As promised, this version packs in new features (both internal and visual,)
#1 The visual elements of the App now look more uniform across various versions of Android.
#2 The Single Color and Multicolor Modes are now combined as one, and that gives you the ability to:
Make the Bar use a single color (even when the Battery is low)
You can set your own Battery Low Level and assign a color for it to indicate
Make multiple segments of the Bar with different colors to indicate each segment. Maximum is upto 6 AND yes, the segment limits are variables controlled by you.
There is a live preview which gives you an idea how segments are arranged and color-coded for the Bar.
#3 Replaced the Color Wheel with a older one, which is more accurate.
To do for this version (4.0):
#1 Pause animation on screen off
Hope to receive some feedback soon.

UPDATE B: Just released an updated version of Energy Bar (EB_3) on Google Play Market, before you get all excited, this update is completely focused on stability/performance. I completely rewrote the code (made a big structural change), I would consider this update as an essential major internal update. Also, it should now perform better during the charging animation.
But, just to not totally disappoint you guys, I have added the following few things that is visual:
#1 The center animation is now more symmetrical (two pulses.)
#2 Custom Colors!!
#3 Thickness is now controllable to the level of pixels (larger devices can make the Bar even more thicker now.)
And lastly, am not abandoning the project with this update, I have got all the list of feature requests made so far since the first release, will be adding one by one.
UPDATE A: Initial version released! Scroll down to get the Download link (check the attachments for screenshot!)
Features:-
✓ An interactive UI to configure the Bar live, which reflects your color choice on both the Bar and the UI itself.
✓ Can be aligned left-right-center of the screen.
✓ Multiple colors option - the Bar changes color in every 20% Battery level interval.
✓ Thickness of the Bar can be configured.
✓ Option to start the Bar automatically on phone restart.
✓ Options to keep a shortcut to either hide or configure the Bar instantly from notification panel.
✓ Puts 0% load on CPU when running on Battery, on Battery level changes, system wakes up the Bar momentarily to update.

Greetings!
Many of you who have a Windows Mobile past like me, might be very well familiar with the inspiration behind this application I created, temporarily called as Energy Bar. I saw a couple of Android versions as well, including the one which comes bundled with MIUI custom roms. So, here is my implementation of it (Video Below):
What it does?
Puts an Energy Bar at the top of the screen which indicates current battery level on any screen.
Plug-in any AC power source to start pulsating animation. The animation is detailed enough to let you know where was your battery level when you initially plugged in and what is it's current level during the whole process of charging.
A customizer interface to choose between three colors, Activate/Deactivate, auto start on boot.
The color chosen is always saved and used when the service is activated/deactivated, crashed and restarted, auto start on boot.
When customizer interface is closed by clicking "Close and run in background....", only the bar runs which takes around 3 to 4 MB static RAM.
The load on the CPU is 0% when the AC source is not plugged in. The service gets activated only when battery is reduced.
The Video:
NOTE: The video below is of the TEST version of the App, an updated video will be soon posted.
It's hard to showcase the features in screenshots (attached,) so I have uploaded a video of the app in action:

00:00 - 01:07
03:15 - 03:36
And at several more places, if you find it somewhere, let me know
WHAT'S NEW?
EB_6.3.5_BETA:
The App now relies on 'Notification Access' rather than the powerful & sensitive Accessibility Service, to be alive forever.
Upgrading from a previous version?
Click the activation switch, enable Notification Access even if you see the Bar already active.
On some devices, you may have to enable the App in 'Auto-start Apps' settings to survive a phone reboot.
Expect 0 mAh battery consumption.
EB_6.3.3_BETA:
#1 Added support for Android 8.0 Oreo.
#2 If you have faced "Permission denied" issue, this version should resolve it.
#3 On Android Oreo, in Status Bar mode, pulling down Notification bar wasn't possible, it's fixed now.
EB_6.2(.2)_BETA:
* The pulsating charging animation now remembers initial charge until power source is turned off.
* Lots of new Animations now available, including an option to disable it.
* Status Bar mode's background is now configurable as transparent or opaque.
* The UI now has clues on how to delete segments.
* Instructions to keep EB alive on Huawei/Lenovo added.
EB_6.1.5_BETA:
HOTFIX for crashes on some Android 6.0 devices
EB_6.1.4_BETA is a critical maintenance update featuring:
* The App now officially supports Android 7.0
* The 'Screen overlay detected...' issue on Marshmallow is finally taken care of, phew!
* Devices on which App crashes on launch is fixed (E.g., Moto X Pure)
* 'Merge Segments' color configuration now survives a reboot of the device.
* Thickness limit increased to 30
Thank you everybody for the amazing response, more updates will follow, if you love the App, don't forget to share it. Cheers!
EB_6.1.3_BETA:
* Attempts to resolve bugs faced by some devices.
Thank you everybody for sending in reports!
EB_6.1_BETA:
* Auto-hide is now not limited to just fullscreen videos, games, images. It will work on any fullscreen content which doesn't have a Status Bar.
* Support for Android 6.0.
* Flashy Ad replaced with native static one.
* UI glitches are now fixed completely.
* Lot of internal optimization for continued harmony between your device and Energy Bar
Discussion of the Release Version of the App starts from Post #20http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49385457&postcount=20.
Some screenshots by the XDA community, I don't know if the Bar is complementing their beautiful screen set-up or the set-up is complementing the Bar

Well, I want it to be available for non-root users as well. So, not planning to use Xposed at the moment.

How do you want to make changes in the UI without root?

The change has already been made, one of the devices in the video is not a rooted phone.
It would be great if you could set different colours for every say 10% increment so green for 100 to 90 blue for 90 to 80 etcetera, also being able to change the frequency of the animations from 1% to 2% or 5% or whatever would also be quite cool.

Every 10% might be messy, but will include the feature in a limited way, say every 25% may be.
Is it possible to change the bar height? That's a very needed feature if not.

I found the particular height I used to be an ideal one, but Indeed adding more customization option won't do any harm. Currently working on something that will significantly enhance the functionality of the bar, will showcase it soon.

I'm a very minimalist person, I usually set my battery bar to 1 dip in height. =)

Sure, you would be able to experiment with the height!
Off the top of my head, possibility to set a background color can be interesting too. That way if you have a transparent status bar and let's say a blue battery bar on a blue background then you can still see it.
That's all I can think of at the moment.

I'm not sure you would need a rooted phone for that. Simply have the progress color diminish while keeping a "full" color bar behind it/right to it. Two colors to set in this case.

Oh got ya! I thought you were talking about status bar background, which is not possible to change, atleast not till 4.3
My suggestions:
It would be nice to have the option to set the bars position to multiple locations (below the status bar, above or below the nav bar, or even left and right of the entire screen).
The centered mirrored option would be nice as well, as people who use roundr will have the bar cropped at the edge (happens to me with TEAM Battery bar and it's the reason I have it disabled now).
Also having a bar height option and being able to lower the opacity of the bar in case the user wants to have it overlap the clock and all the icons on the status bar.
