Oh come on - only 5? This thing is gold

9 - a little better than 5, but still pretty bad!

Not many takers then - looks like i need to do some bumpin...

26 lucky people

I like this but it has trouble with the lockscreen - sometime it appears then is overriden by the lockscreen...

Im looking into this issue!

Hey ftgg99, just installed and going to give this a try! Could you give a breif explanation of the minimum, maximum & step intervals please? I looked for a "help" option within the app to explain. I'm mostly interested in the auto call back feature for when Att drops my call. (I know the second it happens now with Vibralert!) Also, will the app request root the first time it is needed? Ive installed and changed settings but it hasn't requested root yet. Hopefully I get a chance to test this soon, just waiting on a busy signal or call disconnect. Thanks.

I, too, would be interested in a description of the interval settings. I installed, gave root permissions, and I've had a coupler of busy signals with nothing happening from Redial Me. Running Android 2.2

Okay I definitely just got a busy signal but RM did not request root. Turning the on/off does not prompt root either. I will uninstall and try again after I get some clarification for the intervals. -Atrix

Looks like you're having troubles as well. I've been calling a radio station all day to try to win tickets to a Willie Nelson concert for my father in law (huge fan-fathers day, ...yeah.) AND I've gotten a lot of busy signals, as expected. I, on the other hand, did get prompted for Root Access upon installation. I also verified that Superuser remembered "Redial Me" and it does have root access.
Haven't received a single pop up, prompt to redial on busy, or anything.
If this can get up and going and get the bugs worked out it will be exactly what I've been looking for for a LONG time! How awesome would it be if someone had an app that would continuously keep redialing until call connection for radio giveaways and promotions? Pretty sweet!
Also great for contacting people who are constantly on the phone with no call waiting... can sneak in between calls!
Let me know if there are any kind of logs I can pull or anything I can do that would help in the development for this. As of now, the app is doing absolutely nothing for me but I will keep it installed for logging/testing purposes.
I installed .apk, enabled Redial Me, .. tried it out... nothing. Rebooted, tried again, busy signal but nothing again...
Android 2.2, GladiAtrix 1.83 P-Rom for Motorola Atrix

Ill be working on a complete overhaul in the next few day - im taking the app over from a rather lackluster apprentice we have just let go. Many changes are coming!
As for details of the settings, they are as follows:
Minimum interval - the time after first engaging before the app starts redialing.
Maximum interval - the longest interval before a redial is made
Step interval - Redial Me incrementally increases the time it takes to launch a redial at this rate
Does that make sense?

Yes that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
Just this morning on a reboot RM (finally) prompted me for root.. I have rebooted many times since install. Sadly the prompt lasted about 3 seconds instead of the usual 10 (prob cause the phone was booting), I only had time to read not accept. Uninstalled and looking forward to the overhaul.

The easiest way to reset superuser is to go into the su app and forget whatever app youre having trouble with - then start it again and wait for the prompt.

How soon can we expect a new release? I'm excited to see this come together. Any idea why I'm not getting prompted to redial after receiving a busy signal?

Next few days... and no idea, better just write the app from scratch...

Done. Demo is up as well. If you were early to the party, PM me ill send you the xda version beta for free!

What do you mean with early to the party I just waited for the new version to test it since i read about it

i'll join in, i'm always trying to win stuff from the radio

[App] Root Call Blocker needs testers

Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app's home is here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
We have had multiple reports that blocking is not working sometimes on the American sammy phones, so we need some nice people to do some testing.
You can use the Groups function of the Lite version to do the testing - it gives you almost everything youd want from the app anyway.
Please post comments here, but also use the "Write to us" dialog in settings.

This is great, my bug with calls comng through sometimes when call waiting with more than 1 number was fixed in 165! Thanks a lot!

Enjoy... and remember, an update is always just around the corner!

Could you guys please test the following behavior for me:
1. How the app behaves when a blocked number attempts to connect during call waiting
2. How a blocked caller is handled when "Dont answer" is set as the reject method and you are currently on the phone and have not enabled blocked call vibrate notifications within the app itself
Dont forget to send logs with descriptions as well.

Come on people, i really need some feedback on this!

Come on guys - feedback will help me help you!

Awesome, working perfectly here thanks. Dont thing ive ever had issues with this app (maybe once had to do a manual license check)...

Thanks, could you please test the behavior i described above? Its very important!

Guys, an update has been rolled out. It contains an important new workaround thast needs to be tested.
It may help those people who have data issues, especially on LTE enabled phones sometimes.
Please help me test this by installing the app, rebooting and waiting for data to return with the screen on. Please wait 3 minutes at least before sending logs via "Write to developer" in the app.
Dont forget to include a description. Thanks!

Working perfectly for me! Thanks, this is absolutely top class. Ive been using CM as well, great app too.

Enjoy. And dont forget that im always checking these threads, ao comments and suggestions are welcome!

Any issues to report?

Maybe found a bug... just maybe
This actually sort of saved my a$$ so not sure if I should list it as a bug or not LOL anyways I'm using Miui on a HTC Desire Z and I loaded my root blocker pro and added a password and put it in hidden mode. I always back up my blocking settings so I forgot how to load root blocker pro when it's hidden, so I went into the settings into manage applications, then I uninstalled root call blocker and re-installed it and said no to the restore, got into the setting and restored manually. Could be a security flaw, what do you think?

There is no way to prevent this other than taking your sd card out. Its an android flaw.

Yes, its a problem with android itself!

Any issues to report?

Not sure if it the app or not. I have an evo shift. Im using the free version and ever since i installed rcb i lose all service sometimes, data and phone. A reboot fixes it. Like i said i never had this problem before i installed rcb. On a lighter note it works great awesome app! I will be buying when i figure out if it rcb or not
Supremly transmikked! Sense in disguise

RCB will only interfere with data at first run, so it isnt the app. Bad radio, bad signal, pretty much lots of possible reasons...

Ok, i did find that it is blocking all picture mail(mms). Is there a setting to fix it?

[APP][2.3+] Vcustomize 1.0

An app to make calls and record voice memos without having to unlock the screen or look at it.
After years of shying away from the new OS (WP, android, iOS) because of lack of control, I decided to give up my WM6.5 phone and write an app myself.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vivekiny2k.vcustomize

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Vcustomize lets you make calls, record and listen to voice memo, turn on flash light, and tell time while the phone stays in its cover. Since Android does not allow keypress access to background services, I use proximity sensor to know when the phone is in cover and only then I bring the actual app up. This way it's almost invisible to the user. The sensor can be overridden though.
It's not perfect, but I am working with whatever resources android provides. I use it daily and could not live without it, despite the shortcomings. So I decided others should be able to benefit from it as well. I have tried to make the description as simple as possible, have uploaded a demo video, and made the app free with ad-support.
I hope to add more customizing options if there is enough interest.
Please send feedback and suggestions at [email protected]

I have released version 2.01. It includes many features available on the screen when phone is locked.
----------------------------------------------
2.01
- added flashlight
- added review calls (need directory configured in /sdcard0/vcustomize/callrecordings.txt)
-----------------------------------------------
update history
2.00 - fixed force close problem. App runs without crashing.
- added options on touchscreen to
- make calls (need directory configured in /sdcard0/vcustomize/contacts.txt. format is "name|number")
- record voice memos
- interval shooting ( can be termed spy cam)
- backup files (need backup script configured in /sdcard0/vcustomize/backup.txt. format is "source|destination|delete-source-after-copying-flag")

Going to give this a go thanks for this!

Release version 2.02. I have added timers and alarms (you lose them if phone reboots), full screen postview, and some general stability improvements

It took me two hours to add option to turn off data and wifi when screen is turned off. My android reported 4% battery loss in 6 hours, that's 150 hrs or 6 days of idle time! This was with a bunch of apps and messengers running in background (obviously deprived of data).
The only downside is you will not get any updates from network based apps (gtalk, messenger, email, whatsapp etc) when screen is turned off. but they will get updated in seconds after turning on the screen.

I'd really like to try this app but play store says my device is not compatible. I'm running gingerbread 2.3.4

KeepItOn (KIO) is an application designed to end the scourge of the screen turns off while we are reading or watching something. So annoying, at least for me…
How it works
KIO detect any small movements and prolongs the time to turn off the screen, like if you have touched the screen. Even if the screen turns off, you can always shake to wake you up during a time set by you, default is 5 seconds, and by shake I mean move slightly.
Please test it, rate it and give your feedback.
I will try to attend possible requests as soon as I can.

Thanks great idea as it alwasy annoy me when screen turns off while i am reading, willl give it a try I hope it wont consume too much battery

very useful, thank you. keep your work!

How is the battery consumption?

This goes on back process yes?
how this will affect on battery?

Thank you Sir :good: .. Works good on Lenovo A3000 with andrid 4.2.2

Will motion keep it awake if it's in your pocket and you're walking, or does it use the proximity sensor to prevent that? Will the motion of a moving car keep the screen from turning off?

Yes, this is a background process that reads the accelerometer. However when screen is off the service is running but it is doing nothing.
I am using for two weeks and have not noticed any significant change with the battery consumption.

Thanks for the app and reply, will try and post the feedback.

Is there something like this for Xposed?

"Pocket mode" added.
Due to all the requests that I have had, I decide to add a feature that check the proximity sensor in order to detect if phone is in the pocket, prevent that way that phone stay alive forever in the pocket, draining all the battery.
Please test it and help me make KeepItOn better.
Happy new year everyone!

I've previously turned on the app, set it to "auto start", rebooted & now I've noticed that it was turned off. Maybe this was only to me. By the way, great app.

sir you deserved lots of thanks from me it's great app

I can see advantages to this app and I can see disadvantages too...
Is there any way to make this "app dependant", so like it will only keep the screen on when compared to a whitelist of apps, otherwise it will leave the screen off as normal? For example, it would be very useful to have the screen stay on for reading from a browser, but not when my phone is just displaying the launcher homescreen? I know it is probably asking the earth or close to the impossible but I thought i would ask anyway

New update available.
- Notification Icon
- Minor bug fixes
This update is a big update for android 4.4.2 users since there is a bug on that android version, for that users "Notification Icon" must be always on. More info here.

The first objective of the app is the simplicity, but I will though about that feature and see if it's worth.

I've got notification icon enabled in settings but I don't see the icon in the status bar. Running 4.4.4 on a Sprint Moto X.

[APP][6.0+][Root] AutoAirplaneMode

Your phone need to be rooted because Android restricts Apps with "WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" in their manifest.
This App is, of course, free, open-source, GPL-V3, without any ads! I've made everything: Material Icons based on Google Guidelines, Developement, website, packaging.
It's for you! Eh, after all, you gave me LineageOS on my old Sony Xperia SP

Finally I found this (on F-Droid), thanks!
Do you know if it works on Pie?
(I always depended on Xposed + Airplane Mode Helper + Timeriffic.
But I want to use Pie, which doesn't have Xposed.
Forgive me, I can of course try myself, but that takes hours if unsuccessful.)
Minor feature requests (idk if you still care/maintain, but you asked, so there):
- Be able to set times while toggle is set on Disabled
- When changing time, preset time chooser to current setting, instead of always 23h/8h

Thanks for testing!
Actually, your comment has motivated me to rework on this App. I switched from unlocked Xperia to locked Galaxy S7. It was very complicated but I successfully managed to be root again. I will rework on the UI, and make it close to Google Calendar (week view).
I've found an open source library which does that, so it will be easy to set offline periods.

My pleasure, thanks for listening!
Yes, it works fine on Galaxy S4 Mini LTE + AospExtended 4.6 (Nougat).
As you are still interested in feedback:
Personally I really don't care about this, but it doesn't trigger exactly on time, maybe only during Doze mode "maintenance windows" every 9 minutes. I already disabled Battery optimization for it.
Maybe most people (like me) already use other schedule/profile apps that have plenty features, so they don't search for alternatives.
But afaik, they all need Xposed + Airplane Mode Helper.
So maybe your app gets more popular, as long as your app does work on Pie, and Xposed does not.

Thanks for this app! I just discovered it recently and so far it does exactly what it is supposed to do: Automatically send the phone to airplane mode during the night and wake it up in the morning.
If you could as you mentioned add some form of a calendar view to the app then one could use the app much more individually (e.g. use different times on the weekend). That would be a great improvement!
Moreover, I would like to also add another feature request:
Would it be possible to enable/disable airplane mode only partially. For instance only switch off mobile connections while leaving Wifi turned on or the other way around?
Please keep up the good work :good:

Thanks for this app!Yes, it works fine on LG G5 .

It turns airplane mode on, but turning off isn't working. Android 10, Redmi Note 4, crdroid 6.11.
Update: on the 5th try it turned off. Really strange.

At least most of the time it works perfect on Android 9 (S4 Mini i9195, lineage-16.0-20200515).
I let it switch automatically, and rarely change settings or otherwise interfere.
I vaguely remember some failure, I might have rebooted or cleared cache in the past to solve it.
But that is so rare, that I can't remember exactly.
