droidEssential, toggles+shortcuts+taskKiller+fullscreenEnabler+rec entApps+more - Android Apps and Games

During the first Android app development, I noticed that, the USB Debugging turn off by itself occasionally.
And I will have to go to Setting to turn it off then turn it back on.
Meantime, I think the "Quick Setting" thingy in the HTC phones are really convenient. Would be nice if this is available to all phones. (and with the functionality to toggle USB Debugging!)
Personally, I use "Task Killer" and "Screen Off and Lock".
Why not merge all these into one?
The thoughts inspired me to built my 2nd application
I think developers will find USB Debugging toggle usefull if it works on your devices
The app's called droidEssential.

unfortunately, I'm not allowed to post links.
so, please search "droidEssential" in the Google Play.
There's a Youtube video and a link to its website (same as the FAQ in the app actually)
It has 2 in-app-purchase, a dollar each.
One is called "Advance Pack". Right now, it gives you one new toggle. A toggle that merges WiFi and Cellular toggles into one.
The other one is "Developer Pack", it gives you the ability to toggle USB Debugging.
New features will be release time to time.
---
as I only own one phone, the HTC Desire HD. So, it'd be nice to have some feedback and bug report from people.
And, as an appreciation, you can enable the "Developer Pack" by signing in to my appspot page

guess you are aiming for a appswipe kind of app? anyway, it works fine, i would like to see a hardware button shortcut customization with a long press setting D:

OS4+ supported
My phone HTC Desire HD was running 2.3.4 Gingerbread.
I've upgrade it to 4.0.4 ICS this morning and did a quick fix to all my apps.
All are tested and should be working as expected on OS4+

Morning, motodroidfreak!

Do you mean that you failed to sign in to [https]hiro4476.appspot.com/droid_essential_enable_dev_pkg?
or the "Toggle Items" setting stopped at the loading?
I'll have a look at my python script and see if I can spot something.

appswipe... I'm not sure how to categorize my app XD
well, it's an extension to the NavBar XD
do you mean that, long pressing on the search button to bring up a list of customised shortcuts?
btw, Long Press on the Search Button can also bring down the dE-Panel.

this is getting weird...
"Apologies. Please login", is this the one you are getting? or "Failed to sign in to Google"?
has anyone getting the same problem?
in my python script
Code:
user = users.get_current_user()
if user == None :
error = LANG["en"].apologies_please_login
return json
"users" is Google's API
get_current_user() will return a user instance (nothing sensitive, really), and a "None" mean no user (user not signed in).
just that simple...
I've been testing with different Google accounts and had no problems...
don't think this is what causing it.
btw, I've just uploaded a newer version that displays more error codes.
It will be available within few hours

ok, then it's not python's problem.
Please upgrade to the newest version, 1.5.
It should give you more than just "Faild to sign into google", most likely to be one of the exceptions.

hnnn...
I went to see how others do their log in and did a small modifications.
I've also checked the code line by line few times, and have placed more Toast.
hopefully this will cover all the possibility.
I'm so sorry for this to happen to users.
The new *.apk, 1.51 has just got uploaded.
Thanks for the help, appreciated!
btw, if you don't mind, can I send you the *.apk directly? think it can be faster to solve it that way.
no rush, just check it whenever you are free.
And... all I can do is to enable the humble Advance Pack for you. Hope you don't mind

Thanks for those of who helped me debugging my App! Your deeds will live on forever in my server!!! XD
especially motodroidfreak, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I learned something in the past 2 days.
1. though you are supporting old devices, use the newest SDK
2. once you switch to a newer SDK, many deprecated methods will rise, deal with'em.
I had my HTC Desire HD upgraded from 2.3.4 Gingerbread to 4.0.4 ICS.
Oddly, the deprecated methods/functions are still working.
For best compatibility possible, maybe someone decided to include the full library inside the phone?
I've been working on the compatibility issue in the past few days.
Now that I've checked my code line by line and had updated my library. Hopefully this will solve the problem.
Sorry for the annoyance.
If there's a problem, send me a short description, fell free to give me a yell!!
Regards, Hiro

Like your app, but i am on CM, so the most is useless for me But great app :good:

btw, the 3rd point I'd going to add is
3. use Nexus (and this is what I'm going to get next, when possible :fingers-crossed
I assume Google will strip out those deprecated methods.
Thanks, Dexxmor
appreciated

It's been a while since the last update
new updates

I really like the idea of this, being so heavily configurable, but it doesn't do the 1 thing that I want. I want to turn off screen lock when connected to my home wifi. There's already a dedicated app for that, so it looks like I'll have to stick with that for now.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.benhirashima.unlockwithwififree
If you do update this to include that action, then I'll be all over it! Cheers for the hard work.
Can it be moved to SD?
Can you make that i can select multiple triggers, if one, or more because true (or all true), then execute it.
Also to have more actions per rule would be nice =D

I have another post on my blog that you can vote for some features that were already requested by other users. Enable/Disable screen lock is one of those features and I believe it will be included in one of the next updates.

I'm afraid that's only possible using the Pro version.
nxdu said:

Nope. Since AutomateIt has a service running it cannot run from the SD card (at least that's what google is recommending)
If you have some workaround you can suggest I'd love to hear it...
To bad i don't have a CC, because then i would buy the pro version.
Can i buy it via SMS or so?
The pro version is only available through the Android Market
I tried automateit and it was not reliable in the one function I needed most which was "enable bluetooth when plugged into power" and "disable bluetooth when power disabled"....I'd find bluetooth left on or find it off when it should be on....finally went back to the dedicated app.
I also recall it not doing other functions such as "run app x when power enabled" "close app x when power disabled"....alternatives would be checking for home wifi ssid or any method of it knowing I'm "home". (I run wired tether as soon as the phone is plugged in to tie the phone to the local lan )
famewolf, I don't know which version you have tried but a lot of things has changed in AutomateIt in the last few months and the rules that you described are exactly the ones I have defined for myself and they work flawlessly (a list of all my rules and other ideas is available here).
I also didn't get any report about these functions from any of the users who downloaded the app (>25,000 users...)
I'd appreciate it if you give it another chance and report any errors to me so I can resolve them (just press "Help !" on the About screen if you encounter any error).

I'm willing to give it another go but I think my usage might also be a factor...if I toggle airplane mode on/off to get the radio to go to 3g vs E then the app has to handle resyncing the bluetooth which also got turned off and back on for example. My home phone have bluetooth links so when I dock the phone it links to them etc...
Does it support importing and exporting of rules yet? I can see where a webpage where you could checklist the rules you wanted and it builds you a customized ruleset being very nice.

Yes. AutomateIt supports backup and restore of your rules (I think it's supported for over two months now so you probably tried a VERY old version...).
As for having a webpage to select rules and build a customized ruleset, I agree that this could be nice but currently I prefer focusing on adding more features to the App. maybe someday I'll build someting like that...
It would be great to have a WiMax on/off option for those toting Evo's, etc.
Don't want to crap on your app... but how is this any different from Tasker?

Not sure if Android gives same access as WinMo, but during a phone call if I set it down on a flat surface it would automatically switch to speaker-phone, and switch back when picked up. Is the same possible on Android with this App?
I can't figure out how to use this app.
I would like WiFi to be triggered "on" when entering my house, as well as WiFi triggered "off" when leaving my house. I rather not trigger WiFi on/off each time I want it to.

I know the sense roms do this. along with ringing louder if the prox sensor is triggered ie by being in your pocket.

Does not support qvga phones and tablets.
If you encountered some crash issue, please don't uninstall it right away, because I can see it , I'll try my best to resolve it.
Coolands for Twitter is a revolutionary twitter client. It has many unique features, gives you the best mobile twitter experience you never imagined before.
*The first unique feature is Real-Time.
You can’t find any refresh button in this app, because you absolutely don’t need to. Every time you open it, you’ll get the latest tweets and while you’re reading, you’ll get incoming tweets in Real-Time. So if your friend mentioned you, you can reply instantly.
*The second unique feature is Avatar Indicator.
Avatar Indicator is small avatars showed on the title bar to indicate that you’ve got new message/tweet/mention. Since it’s real-time, you’ll keep getting incoming tweets while you’re reading your older timeline, Avatar-Indicator will let you know who’s tweet you’ve just got, and decide whether to check it out right away.
*The third unique feature is Direct Link
I think it is obviously the most intuitive and convenient way to open a link. When you want to open a link, just click it in the time line . You can also click a username to open a profile window, click a hash tag to open a search result window. Different kind of links displayed in different colors, you can change it to whatever color you like.
The fourth unique feature is Smart Bookmark
Have you ever experienced this scenario? When you are reading your home timeline, the app notified you that you’ve got some new tweets, you click “go-to-top” button to read the newest tweets, and then you want to get back to the previous position to continue your reading. How can you do this? In other twitter clients you have to scroll down all the way to find where you were, a lot of time wasted. But in this app, “go-to-top” button will appear when you scrolling up, click it, you can got to top, read the newest tweets. After that when you scrolling down, Smart Bookmark button will appear at the corner. Click it, you can get back to exactly where you were.
*The fifth unique feature is User Level Notification
Notification for all your new tweets is meaningless, if you following more than a few users, you’ll get new tweets all the time. What if you only want to be notified when someone you most care about posted a new tweet? In this app, it’s easy. You can change your friend’s notification setting directly in his/her profile screen. You can also set different notification ringtone for your friends respectively. So when you heard a notification ringtone, you’ll know who he/she is without the need to open your phone. And you can manage all the enabled User-Level-Notification settings in one place.
*The sixth unique feature is Sleep Time.
It’s not very special but I think it’s important. You probably don’t want to be waked up by any kind of notification noise when you sleep. You can set your sleep time, so you don’t receive any kind of notifications when you sleep.
*The seventh unique feature is Last Position.
This app doesn’t save all your older tweets when you exit. Every time you launch it, the newest tweets show up on the screen. But you can retrieve your position at which you exited last time, and continue your reading, by select ‘Last position’ menu option.
Coolands for Twitter has most of the basic twitter client features, like post/delete tweets, retweet, reply, quote, send/delete direct message, subscribe/unsubscribe lists, follow/unfollow user, multiple account support (up to 3), append picture with your tweets, mention auto complete, recent search auto complete, etc.
Please give me feedbacks if you have tried it, and I PROMISE to reply all your emails.
*1.11 update
*Add static image notifier on the top of the screen, removed text notifier.
*1.12 update
*fixed silent ringtone issue.
*removed picture resize options, pictures will be resized to proper size automatically before upload.
*1.20 update
*Refined UI
*Add 'Last position' menu option. it is used to retrieve your position at which you exited last time, and continue your reading.

I just received an crash report, from LG GT-540 caused by a NullPointerException, I guess that's because my Entry Activity was killed by System when user went to Browser to authorize the app.

app has crazy potential. won't lie. but it has some few issues. most users won't pick up on the swipe to change screens. at least i think they won't. I could be wrong. There were also a few spelling mistakes in it, but overall was great. With a little polish this could overtake plume as my go to twitter app.

Of course. Swipe all the way to the left and "Favorites" is misspelled. The help screen has some minor stuff. If you want I can rewrite it all, but I'll have to do it after I wake up. When you compose, the hint is missing a space between what's happening, and the twitter user name. I also had a force close but i've been unable to replicate it so it might have just been a one time thing. But the more i play with it, the more I like it. Thank you!
You are so kind, I'll correct them in the next version.
And I definitely need you to rewrite the help stuff.
And have you notice the lanscape mode composing screen? You can type in lanscape mode and still see the number of characters, and buttons. I think its very convenient. And I didn't mention it on market description.

fixed some crash issue.
fixed some spelling error.
And it's not All-Time Real-Time, if you exit the app, and notification is enabled, it won't notify you in Real-Time.
I could do that, but that would drain your battery heavily.
will be trying this out in a while.
thanks!
I need more feedbacks please.
I feel depressed about not getting replys.

Installed the update. Still not working, only now it is worse than before.
It still wouldn't allow me to switch apps, it still didn't launch on phone boot up, but now the update prevented me from being able to install apps from the Amazon App Store. I'd hit the install button after the app had downloaded, but it wouldn't register the button press. I could hit the cancel button though just fine. Play Market apps installed just fine. As soon as I Force Stop Fast5, I cold install apps from Amazon just fine.
Very weird. It works perfectly on my device (SGS2) and my friends devices and all emulator devices (2.1+) and i do not get other complains... what's going on?
Have you installed custom rom or something? Do you see all 5 icons? After pressing nothing happens? Or an error?
I would understand if you'd get some errors, but if it's not booting with the device? There is no way it won't boot at normal device configuration...
Thank you for you cooperation!
Have a look...:
see it in action
I think it's isolated issue but I'll try to fix it for you if you'd like to use this app . Wain for report (if you sent it)
Works fine for me. Absolutely perfect!
its a simple task switcher. didn't see any task "manager" function in app(where we able to kill tasks). or it will be available in the future updates?

Yep it's a switcher. Will change topic name, sorry. But it works fine for you, right?
It works now on ICS too. There should be a new version active on the market within 1 hour (as always). There was one issue. Fixed.
I will test it. Great job
Edit: "error process buy" say my market
Defy > Defy+
Sorry my bad english
Error process buy? Lol... it's free. Did you try do it from the PC? Market kinda buggy thing. Thanks!
I had no problems with installation nor application so does my friends .
Updated version has been released. Should be working fine for everyone, regardless of Android version (2.1 +).
Try it
the update fixed task-clicking on ICS
- could you please add #111111 as an background color option? that's the color used by android for notification backgrounds
- when opening notification area the icons reorder after like 1-2 seconds. I guess that's because the app isn't running in bg permanently but it's still quite annoying, especially when you're just about to hit one of the icons and then it gets replaced with a adifferent one
- is it possible to have more than 5 apps? (yeah yeah, then the name wouldn't make sense anymore, but...) there's so much whitespace between the icons, it'd well fit 7 of them
Sure. No problem. Download an updated version (should appear on the market within one hour) and tell me if you'd like something more. Everyone else too . I'll see what i can do.
As for 7 icons instead of standard 5 on really large screens: could you please send me an email or post me here if you don't mind everyone looking how do it looks on your screen?
Thanks!
thanks for adding ICS color.
for large screen: just turn your phone 90° to widescreen and you can see it for yourself
any idea about the slow updating?
Check out the newest update (v 1.08). Tick a checkbox in preferences, restart an app and see if that fits your needs . As for more than 5 icons - i'll figure it out if you want to
Cheers!
seems good so far. will report back after some more usetime when it's got a bit more to do than show low-memory-apps what does the checkbox do? start a persistant service?
could you please close the notification bar when selecting an app? always makes me think the click wasn't registered.
No, it just shortens update time . Don't worry if it works right . As for notification: will put an option to do so shortly.
Cheers!
This app blocks the 3rd Party App Install on my device (Motorola Defy). You can still press the cancel button, but the install button has no function.
Tested it on a custom CM7 Version and on a Official CM7 Version(with fullwipe).

Google+ Baby Untouch beta page
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of baby friendly contents on web, app, YouTube, and other video source. The app allows you to open any of those contents for your baby and protect your phone from being destroyed by baby random clicking.
*******************************************************************************************************************
Features:
★ Block touch on any apps, including YouTube and browsers (video playing without problem. I haven't find any app that doesn't work with this app yet)
★ Block home, back button, recent-app button, and menu button
★ Lock volume
★ Easy unblocking with options
★ Even works on lockscreen to prevent calling to 911
★ Option to "Keep screen on" while blocking
★ Option to "Lock orientation" while blocking
★ Super simple start. Only need 20 seconds to fully understand how it works
★ Super optimized; next to zero memory and CPU usage
★ Tiny app size
★ No ads; that's right, no ads
★ No sneaky permission, only 2 basic ones
★ No data usage, it doesn't even need internet access permission
★ No sign up, no email, no phone number, and no information is saved or required
*******************************************************************************************************************
Coming Features:
★ Option to allow interaction on running app in the foreground
*******************************************************************************************************************
Limitation:
This app does not provide baby content at this moment.
There are a few reasons:
1. ) I am not an expert at determining what content is the best for babies; I only want to provide what I believe is the best.
2. ) There are so many baby content available everywhere already.
Other notes:
This app does not block power button.
Volume lock is to revert volume changes.
If somehow you can't unblock after start blocking, you can press and hold power button to restart phone and that will fix it.
I have tested this app on as many phones and apps that I can, but if you do find an app or a phone that this is not compatible with, please email me the phone model, android version and the app link, so I can test it and fix it.

Is it possible to configure the app to auto engage when a particular app is running? so for example if Youtube is started the the notouch app activates?
Also, is it possible to have it startup automatically on device boot so that it is running and active by "default"?

Thanks for your interest.
Regarding auto engage, is it that really useful? Currently it doesn't have that feature, because it only takes 1 swipe from the notification and 1 tap to activate.
Regarding auto startup on boot, it might be a bit too dangerous. For example, if you somehow can't not unblock it (For example, someone sets it to 10 taps/sec to unblock), then your last way to get pass it is to do hard reset which is holding power for 10 seconds.
But auto start up the notification is possible. I might add that in, just don't want to pollute the UI with 20 options that general moms don't know how to operate. I might add in an advanced option category in near future.
Thanks.

Sorry for using this thread for this, but I don't think so. I have an app for children on my tablet with pictures and spoken names off different animals. My nearly 2 year old daughter loves it, and actually she can name most of the animals clearly and instantly. I think the point is what kind of content you show to little kids and how long you let them play with it.

Confirms partly what I said, content and duration must be under parental guidance. But I think even kids under age 2 can learn from both: people AND media. And now let's stop hijacking the thread.
Update 4/30:
New confirmation mechanism - You can now confirm with a thumb while holding the phone with one hand. For tablet, you don't have to drag the confirmation bar all the way to the top.
Block Indicator - Now it shows blue dot when blocking and being tapped. This helps user to know the blocking is active. Especially useful when it's in lockscreen and user forgot blocking is active.
There is a bug currently when unblocking if Unblock confirmation is not set. A new update will be released to fix that later today. Please enable unblock confirmation before using it for now.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi!
Is it possible to have the app lock input for 0.5-1second after turning the screen on? I have a bug on my N5 that causes shadow presses when the screen is unlocked. Setting a lock pattern solves this on one side but when the light sensor turns on/off screen during a call it still causes erratic behavior.
Thanks.

I am sorry, this app can't do what you specifically ask for, it's for different purpose.

This is possible with Tasker and the latest update of this app.

[APP] Pokemon Go+ Type Alerts Using Xiaomi Mi Band (Nexus 5) NON-ROOT

Hi All,
Little app for PoGo alerts on MiBand (and any fitness tracker!)
Basically - it works when the app is running - it allows me to use my Mi Band/BIP like a PoGo+ as well as trying its best to help with the battery saver mode (makes it dimmer and more black!)
The idea is that every time the app vibrates the Band does too, as long as it's allowed in the fitness tracker app. Works for MiBand and for Amazfit Bip in my testing, I assume it works for all smartbands that allow the user to choose apps.
You can choose the features in the app and they will automagically start as long as the 'App Active' button is set to 'ON'.
Optional features are:
* Simulate Go+
* Screen dim when facedown
* Screen dim when upside down
* Screen dim when proximity sensor covered
* Screen dim for both of the above
* Screen timeout set by app screen, resets to previous whe PoGo closes
I'm testing disabling the actual phone screen backlight/LEDs without root but I don't think it's possible (PoGo app closes). Still though, it should be more efficient than PoGo battery saver mode alone.
New install instructions (APK no. 65)
To make sure the app functions correctly you'll need to do the following in the given order.
Install app
Your phone should ask you for some permissions (e.g. draw over over apps)
Accept all the permissions and accessibilty options, but press NO to the 'learn how to enable read logs'
You'll need to open up ADB and allow READ_LOGS to use the GoPlus functionality.
Use the following ADB commands:
adb shell pm grant stoobacca.apps android.permission.READ_LOGS
adb shell am force-stop stoobacca.apps
Go to accessibilty settings and make sure the app is set to ON
Hopefully when you open the app all will work!
Hello, thanks for the app.
Just installed it, and i have a problem

I'll see if I can update for this. Just uploaded a new one which SHOULD make the black screen big enough for all phones
I've updated - I think for all questions people have sent.
My XDA doesn't show any responses to PM's so no idea if anyone has heard from me.
Latest rev. 26 should be OK.
Let me know!
Thank you for your work!
But there some bugs in new version:
1) black rectangle still not fully cover 6" screen
2) screen timeout setting not saved: I set 60, - reopen your app and there again 30
3) when I open pokemon go, then close it and look at display setting (at android menu) I see there is no one radio button selected so there maybe some bugged value set.
4) some of your app menu settings caption have 3 lines and it trimmed at end (nexus 6)
Hey man,
Thanks!
I think I broke some stuff in the most recent version. Will upload a new apk later.
1) The rectangle thing I'm working on.
2) I have set it to display the set variable. It will default to 30 if you force close the app. Might also have a problem if your phone can't support more than 30 (that's why it defaults)
3) I might have fixed this. Could you give me more info - maybe a screenshot?
4) I think I fixed the text display issue, let me know with the new apk. (also screenshot if you can)
Glad you like my app!
Stu
Today i testing version 3.5
+ Timeout option in your app now saves fine. And change phone screen timeout to this value when PoGo opens;
But i think this option is useless, what is the point to set not maximum timeout? It needed only if we cant figure out device's maximum screen timeout.
- Screen timeout does not resets to previous when PoGo hides (In version 2.0 it always resets to 1 min.)
If it difficult to restore previous value i wish to have option to reset it to 30 seconds
- Please add version of your app to top of settings page
- Some text layout bugs:

hi and thx for the app but unfortunately it didn't work.
i have installed your apps, app active and simulate go plus and allowed notification from your app on mi band and tools but doesn't work.
is there anything else to do ?
many thx
edit 1 : turn on accessibilty, app is starting when launching pokemon go but don't get any notification on mi band
i have galaxy S7 edge
Ask author to upload previous version ---> 2.0
I use it, works fine.
try the new version 3.8 , doesn't work.
what is the parameters i have to do in apps and mi band ?
thx
Apparently a lot of time since the last comment, but I feel lucky today.
A dumb question: with this app, can I fully simulate a PoGo+ bracelet or it only receive vibrations from the app?
Is it still working?
dont think so, i couldnt get it to work
I am confused as to how this app works. I believe I have everything set up, it has accessibility access, but I can't seem to get it to work. Could you possibly make us first start/set-up guide? (Moto E4)
Does it still work?
I can look at updating if people are still interested..
Hi All,
Sorry I've not been at all active on this forum..
I've seen people asking if this still works (sorry some were a very long time ago)!
I know it's not really useful now as unfortunately we can't go outside.. but if I can dig out my old files and get this working, would anyone be interested?
I can't guarantee it as I don't play PoGo anymore. But if people are interested, I'll see if I can get some time to try and get it working again.
Cheers, and stay safe!

I would really be interested in this. Don't know if you had any responses in pm.
I second that.
I would be very interested into a new version!
Alright then peeps, I've tracked down a version I backed up so I'll take a look see.
Give me some time and i'll try to get a new version. If you could post any issues here it will help me with what to fix.. it might be all of it so no worries if the lists are long!
