[Q] Looking for an app - General Questions and Answers

Hi @ all
im looking for an app that shows or log (in a text file), what my mobile- or wlan transfer do - down and upload.
i want a detail view of it, not only an arrow which points and shines in two directions.

Traffic Monitor https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.radioopt.widget
WiFi Link Speed https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.yuhenghe.android.apps.wifilinkspeedmonitor
Network Monitor Mini https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.kfsoft.android.TrafficIndicator
They all seem to do what you want I think?

search from play store wire shark

I would suggest you Network Monitor -it shows realtime upload and download speed both in kbs/s and kB/s. It plots a graph also.You can have it from playstore or from here

GPS coordinates - extract?

How do you guys conveniently extract GPS coordinates from your mobiles to see/post on google earth?
I use exif tool.exe which is not that great.
It shows me the coordinates in this form:
24 deg 10' 52.66" N, 54 deg 59' 35.44" E
Pasting this in google earth doesnt show me anything. I have to remove a lot of text.
Which apps do you guys use to extract the info?
Thanks
I use GPSCycleComputer v2.51 found here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=424423
This piece of software is very impressive IMHO. Something I would not want to be without. In my eperience, the track loads up flawlessly everytime in google earth. It even allows you to set the GPS "on time" to limit draw on the battery.
thanks, ill give it a try.

It's not working on the LG G2, can't change the "Speed Limiting" rule from None to any other, clicking on it doesn't expand the list of options.

For speed limiting you need root access and some extra feature in your OS version , could you tell what help --> device capabilites gives?
Here's the screenshot for the LG G2 (stock rooted):
1. Device Capabilities
- Your device has root access!
- Your device does not support speed setting
- Your device does not support connection acceleration
- You can create multiple data plans per device
- Your device is not speed setting capable, you probably need a custom rom
Exactly the same for Samsung Galaxy S2 and Samsung Galaxy S4. You probably need some capabilities that aren't included in any stock rom.

Thank you for your feedback ,
An update had been made , could you try with version 1.2 ?

Very nice. I was looking an app to limit on tethering. @franck.M can I also check how much bandwidth a user connected to my phone tethering is using? Or what sites he is visiting?

Thank you for your feedback ,
Within the same rule , you can set how much data you are intending to tether, and tracking is done automatically , you can revisit the same rule and you will find that the used data is updated as long as you tether .
for the moment It's not planned that the app detect visited websites.
If tethering speed limiting is working for you , that's great news . could you tell which phone model are you using ? Thanks
Well, this app don't controls download and upload bandwidth independently for WiFi.
I need one which limits UPLOAD bandwidth only.
it's not possible to control download speed for internet connections such as wifi/mobile/bluetooth ,
Controlling download speed alongwith upload speed is only possible for tethering connections like wifi hotspot , USB tethering or bluetooth tethering.
So you are in the right case , this app can only limit upload speed for internet connections like Wifi access.
I don't understand you.
Are you saying that i can limit upload internet speed on Wi-Fi? I don't find that setting in app. Where it is?

Click on wifi access connection , then add. and fill in the rate value. click done.
after that check to enable the rule.
for your devices , you need root access in order to set the speed.
Ok but i thought that it was for download and upload speed simultaneously, not just for upload. It's not clear. It needs more clear explanation.
I'll try it anyway.
Wtv i repeat myself to be clear: I need to limit WiFi internet UPLOAD bandwidth, not DOWNLOAD bandwidth.

Yes, if you fill in rate for the wifi access connection , you are, in deed, configuring the upload speed. it's also mentionned in help, as well as on the description in top of this thread.
you can use speed test to test your speed settings. if you don't have it already , this is the link:
Speedtest.net on google play
Ok, tested.
Don't works for me. It seems that in real it uses KB (Kilo Bytes, uppercase 'B') for limits and not Kb (Kilo bits, lowercase 'b') as it has written.
I've putted the free app minimum of 256 'Kb' (Kilobits) and it don't limits my 100KB (KiloBytes) upload to 25KB, as it should as K'b's written.
For that i think is 256KB (KiloBytes) the real limit.
Any thoughts?

it's 256 kbps , lower case "b" , if you are using galaxy tab , that should work with stock or custom rom . , did you grant the app superuser access ?
forget to tell you , that in speed test app , you can choose to display rates in kbps, just go to settings.
Looks good ,, under review
Ok, it works, not at desired speed but works either.
Speed measures are a bit strange, like sinuous between 45KB and 65KB, too far from the 25KB selected, a shame.
I need more reviews , did any one test this app in a rooted HTC one ? thanks

I get this error:
BWR Invalid Value
Min upload Rate must be at least 128Kb.
The rate limit are really Kbits or KBytes? It's not clear.
Anyway it's not working on the LG G2 D802. The speedtest.net test goes fast, except that now won't go higher than 5 Mbps, while before it got to 10 or more. Is this normal? Does the app leave some misconfiguration when removing all the rules?

[Q] How to increase downloads of app on Google Play?

Hi!,
I have currently three apps on Google play. For the two of the apps, I already had a group of audience beforehand so I had acceptable number of downloads. In case of a third app, "Walkie Talkie" , which is a more general app than audience specific, I have very poor downloads. What I would like to know is if there are any tips or tricks on getting more downloads for my app.
It is a free Walkie Talkie app, that lets you do a push to talk communication with other android devices that have installed this app. Also how can I get it reviewed on xda forum? My app's url is:

Walkie Talkie on Google Play
Hope I get some response on this one.Im new to xda forum.
Thanks

Download speed is something related to Internet broadband provider.
Download speed depends on number of factor.
May i know whats your download speed ?
You should talk to your Internet service provider in first place .
For an example , sometimes, when i am at home and using wifi , i get 56 to 100 kbps or sometimes i get 3 to 4 mbps.
Whenever i get bad speed ,i just make a call to my broadband Internet service provider and let them inform about my bad downloading experience and they do fix my problem without any hesitation.
Also note that , when i am using mobile data outside of my home ...the download speed is too slow, because in our country , mobile Internet is very slow. the maximum speed we are getting here is around 59 to 80 kbps.
So try with broadband Internet and Mobile Internet both and try to find out the problem whether the slow download speed is related to your brod band connection or mobile data connection.
Best if luck

Im sorry but by downloads I mean installs on google play for my application. I think u didnt understand my question

[APP][NEW] SPEEDOJI : LIVE internet speedometer(NOT numbers) in the status bar. CODES

**Main features:**
1) Live speedometer(Not numbers) in status bar so that everyone can understand what's going on.
2) Live internet speed car animation. car moves fast as you get high internet speed.
3) Internet speed test using emoji. :crying:
Just type "Speedoji" in play store. You will easily find this app.
**Purpose of making this app:**
Basically I wanted to help non technical people who does not understands internet speed in kbps and mbps, to get more idea about their internet speed.
1) So in this app I have set 60 predefined emoji for all different speeds. So if user is getting low speed, app will show sad emoji and if user is getting high speed then app will show happy and crazy emoji. So the people understand their internet speed just by looking at expression of emoji beacause I think expressions are better than numbers.
2) Same thing for live speed in status bar. I have replaced numbers with speedometer.
Thanks for reading this post.
I am also giving away **100 promo codes** to remove the ads.

bandwidth monitor

Hi,
Is there an android app that will show bandwidth usage, like the old Symbian and Maemo/MeeGo app called 'JoikuSpot'?
https://mobilarena.hu/dl/cnt/2010-02/56975/joikuspot-n900.jpg
It was also a complete 'hotspot' app, but it was great to be able to see the network utilisation.
Max.
Such applications are called "Data Usage Monitor"
Enter this phrase in Google Play search and you'll get a lot of results.
Thanks. I did as you suggested but I couldn't find anything especially similar. They mostly seem to revolve around monitoring usage longer term, and attributing usage to apps. All I'm after is a realtime graphics view of the output of (eg) 'ifconfig wlp61s0 | grep bytes'....full screen, not in the status bar.

Try to use Network Monitor (free), Netmonit (free) or Network Analyzer Pro (paid)
They draw realtime graphs

Hrm. I tried the free ones, but couldn't find anything realtime (except in the status bar). Thanks for trying to help me though. I think I might try to use my old N900 and see what throughput it gives...I guess too slow, but it's worth a try. I can take a video of it too, I guess
Perhaps I'll try to make an app of my own
Regards.
