Well I thought it would be a cool idea for a root store type thing, like a market for root apps only. And I thought maybe I could give it a go at at least making a template app and maybe I could get other people to join in or something idk.

App isn't the problem it's getting devs on board also storage server space etc etc a better idea would be a xda app market

Well I would like too make one but I don't know jack for android code, but either way if that type of app existed it would be cool.

You mean like Cydia for iOS right? I can't tell if you mean a type of Cydia Store, or a just an app store. I also had an idea for this a couple weeks back.

I don't know what that is but like what I had in mind was a app that has categories etc for apps, and it would be like for root stuff, like root apps or apps from people on here and other forums, to kinda localize everything into a easy to navigate spot so you don't have to search a huge forum for a download to someone's app or have to search play store to find the right root apps, because to me finding root apps on play store can be a pain.
But lime I said its really just a idea and it would be a little difficult to get going and make actually happen.
Also a app where its like daily/weekly updates about peoples stuff, but drippler kinda does that.

I might make this app this weekend. The UI would probably be terrible though. If I made this, it would have a ROMs section, tweaks section (mods to system and stuff), an apps section (root apps only), and an App Developers section (apps that started on XDA or another Android Forum, or just apps that I think are cool but are not on the play store. Once I know that the app works and can successfully download and install apps, I will work on the UI to look like the Play Store, except with the Holo Blue accent instead of the green one. It would be my first app, too. I'm also learning Android Development by Team Treehouse, and they show how you can make an app access the internet and pull things from it (which is saving the apk, and then installing).

u would need permission from xda and it's better that they make it.
xda devs don't only make root apps also having roms would be expensive and unnecessary because they'll have to handle a boatload of downloads and space to store all the roms when file-sharing sites work just fine what would be better is u subscribe to a Rom and get updates and links etc from there...
Anyways
Where did u start learning?

I started learning 2 months ago, and where I started learning was at my school. I can stay in my schools library after school for 2 and a half hours and that's when I learn android development. I have Eclipse and the Android Emulator working fine on the computers over there (with permission of course). I found team treehouse when watching a tech video on YouTube, it was an ad and I clicked on it.

Yeah this is like what I was thinking, I mean it doesn't have to be xda it'd probably be better if it wasn't because they would have to be involved and then it would be limited to xda also

Would I need permission from xda-developers, if Instead I just got permission from the developers of the apps and ROMs instead?

New app idea.

I constantly walk and text so hate having to look up to see if anything is coming. Is there an app out there that makes the sms screen transparent with the camera screen as the wallpaper? Or display a small camera image just above everything? Not sure if this is the right section for this so re-direct me if thats the case.Thankyou for your time and i look forward to any replies.
Probably possible, but who would take the time to implement it?

It is only an initial API for experimenting. Still too limited (only public data is visible and I have't found a way to get a full feed stream yet) so you probably won't see any good widget until Google release the full API.

[Q] Weather App

I deleted the weather app that came on my Atrix2 phone thinking I had found one I would like better.. not so... now I would like the one that came on the phone anyone know how I can go about getting that app back? thanks
I don't know but I use weatherbug app. Its by far the best I've found.
Sent from my MB865 using Tapatalk
Which app was it? There was an app called "News and Weather" and an app called "Weather."
Well, you could download the ROM that's available in the Development section and extract them from there. Once you extract them ADB push them to your /system/app folder then restart the phone.
You should do research before deleting files from the phone. You are not the first person to delete something, and the same advise comes up; and that is you should always freeze apps instead of deleting them, that way if you feel like you need the app back, you just defrost it. But never delete apps in your /system/app folder unless you know what you are doing.
BTW, I use the Accuweather app and it is pretty good IMHO.
There is a paid app made by Elecont. It is MORE than worth investing in - it is by far better than any free app I have come across, and I have tried many of them.
Been a long time weatherbug fan so Weatherbug elite was the only choice for me
I just recently bought the full version of BeWeather. Uses Weatherunderground weather stations and has pretty widgets and GUI. Highly recommended.

[APP][2.3+] dreamZMP3 - the first and only indie mediaplayer for android

Hey Guys,
i'd like to introduce the first and only indie mediaplayer for android - dreamZMP3!
dreamZMP3 was first released in February 2012 and has been improved since permanently. The current version (1.2.7) is almost bugfree but still gets improved updates weekly.
The basic idea of dreamzMP3 is that user can co-decide on the further development process and can contribute their ideas.
For this purpose there will soon be the forum back online (i got some problems with my subdomainhoster, deleting my last forum, so there will be a "real" domain hosted) where users can discuss and suggest features.
At this time there is just the Facebook-Page online where this can be done.
Further more there will also be the Dev-Blog back online on Tumblr this time, where i'll document the development process.
If you'd like to support me in developing apps for android (i've plenty of game ideas ) i would be delighted if you have a look on dreamZMP3 (the Beta Version is FREE).

do you have a link for us? im still searchkng the perfect player

Found this through the Facebook page: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00771I11A
As much as I wanted to try the app out, UI is incredibly important to me and this app definitely needs an overhaul in the UI department (assuming the screenshots from that amazon link is the app in current form).
Here are all relevant links:

Hmm, sounds strange... If you can tell me where it force closes i'll have a look at the code. Normally it should not lag on a SGSIII because the SGSIII CPU should handle dreamZMP3 with no problems (the weakest test device i use is a Xperia X8 with 600 Mhz). I'm still working on a Folder Browser and probably implement a "alpha folder browser" (a simple file browser) in one of the next updates (would be complicated implementing a Folder Browser in the existing MediaBrowser).

[Q&A][GENERAL]Tweaked 2.x ICS

Howdy folks -
The main thread should be limited to major error/bug reports and logcats - use this thread for all the general conversation and questions/answers stuffs.
Hope you guys like it!
Downloading now testing shortly! (grumble grumble) ...stupid 8 thanks per day limit...
Ok - just wanted to share this as it was frustrating me and didn't make the 2.0 release... but I managed to figure it out
An early start to 2.1 I suppose...

Same way you do it with stock - you have to open up the app drawer, hit the menu button, then select edit. You may need to switch the view type first - do that, and then you can drag things from the app drawer into the dock and vice versa.
Hey again -
To the few that do try this rom out - feel free to drop suggestions for other things to try and work in (beyond lockscreens of course). While I do have one known (and one unknown) surprise ready, I'd like to get a few more things worked into an update if at all possible. I can't say I'll be able to work in what is suggested, but I'll give it a shot at least
Having an updated tw launcher or a different launcher with the ability to have 5 or 6 apps in the dock would be all that I would ask for. Everything else is fantastic. Thanks for all your efforts.

Yeah I've thought about such things, but I always circle back to the idea that there are so many great 3rd party launchers out there I should let it be to encourage folks to explore those options lol. I also am leery on putting in a launcher that has a pay version or has the whole ask-for-permission hassle (that's not really a hassle), but I'll keep my eyes peeled for something different.
I am of course open to suggestions

Seems a good ROM, thank you. One thing, Google now didn't seem to be there/working for me. I'm not sure if it was supposed to be but I added it without any bother so it's hardly a real issue. Oh also what does the 'swag' button do on quick toggles. It seemed to just take me to download mode. Anyway, thanks again

Google Now should have been working - all the stuff from the referenced link was added for it anyway. How is it different now vs. when you first flashed the ROM? Could you get me a screenshot of what it looks like for you now? Perhaps I missed something...
LOL on the swag toggle - I meant to change how that behaved. The toggle is there for fun only, but to mess with people on the Gingerbread build I had it set to force download mode if you turned it on while auto-brightness is turned on - I forgot to change that, my bad
EDIT: Derp... I see what I forgot... Ok, it will be fixed in 2.1, sorry about that For those not wanting to go and flash anything, all you need to do is delete /system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox_USA.apk and then reboot and all will be well. My bad.
Google now just wasn't there before. It was standard search. Now I've added it mine looks like this:

Yep - everything in that is already in the rom, I just forgot to remove an apk. D'oh.
First off - thanks to those that have offered some feedback on this, it is very much appreciated. That being said, I know not many have tried this out but I'm getting an update together, so I wanted to ask if anyone has noticed anything else not working quite as they expected or anything that should be changed/added/removed...?
I haven't come across anything I wanna do with the launcher yet, but I have cleaned up a few things in the toggles, Google Now is now working as it should, I fixed another little bug I found when you first turn on wifi after flashing... outside of that is there anything people have found that I should address before updating? No worries if not - like I said not many have tried this out, but I'd like to get all the little issues ironed out before updating if possible.
