[APP][2.2+][4.1+] Media control from ANYWHERE :) - Android Apps and Games

####### DISCONTINUED #######
Go here for updated version.

Great idea! Unfortunately this doesn't work with plex :crying:
Working fine for google music, but it has notification controls by its own.
Also the design of the notification could be...improved

What's plex? Lol. And improved how? There's really nothing you can do with it. It's like that default by Android.

If this is plex then they need to incorporate a media button listener. Cause my app functions the same as media controls on a keyboard, bluetooth headset, and other devices. Plus it looks to me like the Plex player is playing music on the Host device and streaming it to your phone.. different circumstance as normal players.

Works for my Note 2. Not only do you have a great gui tool, but you make useful apps also!

Thats part of if. I just dont have 25 bucks to open an account to post a 100% free no nag no add app. I was thinking of incorporating ads into the app but i hate when others do this so i wouldnt really want to do this myself. Plus people who already have this version in the OP then they will just continue to use that version and share it. I'll have to think about it. THanks for the help though!

People want functions. The user is hardly in the activity, so they won't even see the themes. I should have instead released a beta instead.

You can add a lot to this even now.
Think of a widget, a permanent overlay when users starts playing music, gestures to launch / skip / quit / pause music etc.
I want to do something with music in an app by me too, maybe we can work together on that.

Photoshop touch

Hi! I know it' officially cokpatible only from Android 3.1 and above, but since our Note has the 1280*800 resolution, wouldn't be nice to have the Photoshop Touch app available for it? Can it be ported, after buying the apk on the market?
Sent from my GT-N7000
That might possibly be considered warez as you would be making a paid app work on a device that it was not intended for. I know that you are saying that you would buy it first... I don't know.
In answer to your question though, yes, it theoretically possible.
Perhaps just play with the apps that are available right now to get acquainted with the s-pen and once ICS lands on the notes we will be able to get official support for PSt on them.
my thoughts exactly. would also be nice to have spen functionality!
adobe should consider making a NOTE version!
I just love that it's cokpatible!

Photoshop Touch is compatible with galaxy note 2.3.6
Here is a video showing it. Watch till the end.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7H7uk6QvbM
I purchased a copy of Photoshop Touch on my Asus Transformer, so after reading this post, I decided to give it a try on my Note with ICS and to my surprise it runs incredibly well, even better than my Tablet thanks to the SPen.
You can for example, hover the tip of the SPen and get an on-screen visual feedback just as if you where using a Wacom digitizer on a computer. (Yes, our SPen and note are Wacom based)
Here's a screenshot of the pressure settings on the brush pallete.

I was told it's not compatible with the Note (as confirmed by Google Play compatibility check)?
In fact I installed a modded (Google is your friend) version and it's exactly like the copy you have.
It's not compatible because the Note is not yet officially on Android 4.0 which is a requirement for it to work.
My Note is running Android 4.0 as you can see from the screenshot. Also my Photoshop Touch app is not modified in any way. I just extracted the apk from my Tablet and transferred it to my Note.

To install it get it on your tablet somehow by either putting the zip on your sdcard or just direct download it then run xbmc and go into system\addons and choose "Install from zip" and find where you put it

I'm surprised as hell that you people are even trying to use it on phones at the moment
XBMC really is designed for tv use currently there are 2 touch screen skins (made by me again) but they still suck on something as small as a phone you really need a tablet at least for it to work half decent.
I guess its a gimmick factor for now that you can actually run it. But don't judge it too harshly unless your using it the way its meant to be on a TV

Yeah I know its just I've invested a lot of my personal time into XBMC of the years, and I hate the thought of anyone dismissing it just because they try to run it on a device that its not currently meant for and get met with a less than stellar user experience :crying:
Its part of the reason why we didn't just ship out apk's or put it straight onto the "Play Store" because its still got a lot of development to go before it really a daily use app. And everyone would just grab and install all the pre-compiled ones without even reading any informational posts about it and complain that its crap when really the main reason the source code is out is so other developers can help us make it lots better for the day it hits the play store
Thats just the way XBMC rolls :laugh: develop in the open and encourage other people to help make it better

Is the touch screen theme installed? I can get it to launch but I can't seem to control anything on my NookColor, was wondering if that might be the issue.
Also, where does the app store its settings? The .XBMC folder (in Linux) or the XBMC folder in applications data (on Windows) where the repositories addons and themes are stored.

Okay, the long anticipated successor of Launcher7, is finally here; Launcher8. This one is made by Timo Kujala, and was published today, APRIL 1ST....
So yeah check it out...
I'm pretty sure it doesn't work with tablets, based on responses, but I am not sure.

Apk - April 1st

Apk - April 2nd
http://db.tt/MyZuF8Pw
Change log;
April 1st - Initial Release!
April 2nd -
-newly pinned tile should no longer overlap the bottommost tile
- shortcut to contact should now work in larger number of devices
- calendar tile should no longer crash with some htc devices
- widget resize handles are no longer drawn in hardware accelerated mode in android 3.0 - 4.0, this should prevent crash due to unsupported graphics operation
- some crash fixes here and there

Hey guys, no need to be sorry, honest question you all asked... But I think this app is way more smooth and fast when it comes to Navigating and adding apps to screen and scrolling, etc. (not the animation on start up of an app though). Hope that helped. This looks better in the settings of the app for me too.

I'm fully aware that the problem is with me, I've been using the previous version of this app (Launcher 7), and can't figure out how to add tiles...
I would greatly appreciate it if some one would describe the steps I should take for adding new tiles, and after that I would feel a great deal of embarrassment about not figuring this out for myself...

Castaway offers the following:
- Cast Google+ photos and videos from your Android device to your Chomecast
- Cast local photos and videos from your Android device to your Chromecast.
Please give it a try and let me know what you think.
Thank you!

Is your phone on the same network as your Chromecast? Also, you may want to try to reboot your Chromecast. I had to do that a few times during development in order to see my Chromecasts.
That worked. Thank you. Had to restart my device and my whole network, but it found it.

Showbox
Can I stream Showbox with Castaway?
wow!!!tanks for this awesome app
has been totally waiting for this app!! thanx buddie ,and can you specify what all format videos can it play??
thanks again man
Uhm, DLNA works for me... also Samsung link and Miracast Airshare or MS WHDMI do a fine job as well. I just don't justify a buying a Chromecast for my tablet or phone. Though I am sure your app does a fine job for phones and tablets that are too old to have such things built in.

Look, not everyone has or wants a new Samsung device. And if you don't even have a Chromecast and have no interest in getting one (I don't have one yet simply because they're not sold in Canada) then what are you even doing here? The developer obviously worked hard on this, just leave them alone and let them do their thing, whether you appreciate it or not.
At the developer: any plans on adding in music streaming in the future? Or does Google look down upon that? I know you're going to be busy adding in sorting and filenames for now. The fact that your app exists at all is pretty amazing, but streaming music would be a Godsend.

Yep - I plan on adding another tab for music. Right now I'm just trying to let the dust settle a bit and fix any bugs that are reported. I am also researching the ability to cast photos from your G+ account.
How does this compare to Allcast? And thanks to the dev for the effort!

Cast Google+ photos / videos
FYI - I just updated Castaway to v1.4... This version will allow you to send Google+ photos and videos to your Chromecast.
Please let me know what you think or if you run into any issues.
Thanks!
Awesome app man! been waiting for this. I tried the free version and wanted the ability to rotate videos, since all videos that i recorded in portrait mode were being played in landscape on the tv. i thought buying the full version would give me this option, but it didn't work. So i refunded.... bring the rotate video feature and I will purchase!
