[APP] OSkin: share your homescreen (like Themer but released) [23 sept 13] - Android Apps and Games

OSkin
Share your homescreen​
OSkin is a new application to copy an entire Homescreen (wallpaper, widgets, home configuration...) from one device to another.
Get the application
The application is in beta, to get it register to this Google+ community
Click the link provided there to be a beta tester.
After that, you will get the beta version on the Play Store.
Why there is no APK attached to the first post?
As OSkin is still in beta under development, I really need that users have the last available version installed. The only way to guaranty that is to use the Play Store which will push the last version all the time to everyone.
Registering as a beta user on the Play Store takes less than 1mn and is free, so if you are interested, do it.
Purpose
Most of you should know the website http://mycolorscreen.com
On this website you can find amazing look for your device.
Unfortunately, you need to configure everything from scratch manually. It may take between 5 minutes to 20 for complex one.
For this reason, many people love these skin but don't use them. That's bad.
With OSkin we can leverage all these creations!
OSkin will make you able to copy a setup, send it on your Google Drive account and post the link to Google Plus, everything automagically!
The process is done through a Wizard and is very easy. It takes around 1 to 2mn to create a copy of a setup and 30 seconds to install.
Why Google Drive & Google+?
First I wanted to build a server, store the skin files on the server and then the user would see a list of Skins (you know the classification: downloads, views, recent...). I thought a lot about it and then I realized that it's better to let users build some groups on Google if they want too, discuss and exchange in an organic way and not a structured one.
Google+ is the perfect network for this purpose because there is a commenting and rating system. There is a possibility to create groups too. These aspects make it much better to Twitter. Facebook would have been a good network too, but I am sure that people having an Android device have a Google account, not sure about the Facebook one.
Compatibility
I have tested the application with several home (Touchwiz, Apex, Nova, Go...) and several widgets, including complex one (Zooper and CWM). I never encountered any issue. But it doesn't mean it will work all the time! Just that I didn't found the limit yet
Warning
Right now this project is at its beginning, the UI has to be improved and the application may be (very) unstable.
The application writes on the data partition of your device only. The system one is not mounted in R/W. So there is no risk to break your phone. But there is a risk to loose your data regarding your home configuration or your widget configuration (never happend to me, but you may be the first one).
Share your thoughts about the application, I will be happy to improve it.
Review
Full review with details regarding the process on addictivetips
App themer copy???
This project started long time before application from MyColorScreen has been annouced publicly, may be even before they started to work on their project. Public beta started before their announcement too.Because there is still no information about the way Themer will work, I can't tell what my application is better at. What is sure is that I am not about to sell any content, because theme creator will have 100% control of their creation. I am not a company, just a lawyer making Android app in his free time.So may be they will release an awesome app, may be not, may be soon, may be never. We will see!
Most important thing: E N J O Y

Installed the apk. Made a backup (had to go through the first intro/cycle twice before it started to backup/upload) Don't know why?
Now before i try a restore, does this backup contain:
Grid size/settings (nova launcher)
Position/size/settings of all widgets on all 3 screens
?

Thanks, tried and works fine in Spain. Just to say, you cannot move the pda to your eyes angle because doing that the camera points out of the road so the path is not drawn accurately. A good improvement would be the possibility to move that drawing to a particular angle. Otherwise you have to place the holder just in front of you.
Pressing in settings/about shows version 0 trial, I don't know if there is the initial release or is the last one.
I hope I hope this will work on the Touch Pro 2 once they get gps fulling working properly!!

This is not the first Augmented Reality Navigation. There is a really nice free one that is better on the android market and has been there for a long time called AugSatNav. AugSatNav is a very well developed and more responsive than this one. Check before you claim its the first.

Re: [APP][FREE] 2.3+ FacebookMagic, News feed messages as an live data wallpaper
Unfortunately, 12 hour updates makes this app broken for all intents and purposes. Can't test how it affects performance or battery usage. A trial version would be better. Allow users to choose update frequency for a set amount of days, then it locks to 12 hours would work wonderfully.

This. Impossible to test it as it is, so won't bother. An hour would have been better. All that text on your home screen is likely going to conflict with icon text etc, so it's important to see what happens over the course of the day with it continually changing.

Ok guys well more @benwalburn & SUer , no where on here asked to be tested, app already been tested this is more if you like the idea then buy pro not "let me make up an testing excuses for a free app" Please stay on topic if not please move on to something else that does need "testing for a free app"
@SUer , you have to make a 2nd screen with no icons so you can just swipe over... I mention this in the video
thank you, any off topic will be report thanks and have a great day

any ideas you think we should add ?
Thread cleaned. Let's keep this on topic. Though, I must say, I echo some of the concerns aired about the 12-hour interval, and suggest that this be changed to something more reasonable like 1 to 3 hours.
This is a really neat idea. Going to be testing the lite version and if it proves functional enough I will buy it. Thanks to you and all the hard working devs that are under appreciated!

Quick Start camera, no miss the wonderful moments (Android APP)

Development of this program, individuals often have this problem because each use mobile phones to take something, should point the screen several times to open the Camera program, even try a few tools of the APP to speed shooting action, but are not expected.

[APP][4.0+] VLC Mobile Remote (Control VLC from Android device)

Download BETA version of VLC Mobile Remote App​
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
I know that there are many remote apps available for Android to control VLC player on your PC. But all of their UX look/feel expired and most of them are half baked. So I did build one called VLC Mobile Remote with a good interface, which works better than any of the VLC remote apps. Give it a try (it's free) and let me know your suggestions/feedback.

Awesome app and very good looking. Better than anything I've used/installed recently. Thanks for this, will provide feedback as I use it.
Can you make it for google tv???
Hey, I would totally love to be part of the beta for this :3 I cannot seem to connect because my computer is on Ethernet not wifi though it keeps saying to make sure my pc is on wifi >.<

Selecting/toggling audio device is possible, I'll definitely add that feature
Oh, this is SO helpful!! Working perfectly. Nice job.
Feature request: remember last opened folder. Very handy if watching series. Because right now every episode I have to navigate back to the series folder. In my case it's a pretty big hassle. Y:/AVIs/Complete Series/<series name>/S<season number>/episodes here.
Get the point? I tried 'save folder' but didn't work
Verstuurd vanaf mijn Nexus 7 met Tapatalk
Very nice app! I like the interface and I'm amazed at how fast it is. I'd also "like" to point something out: The folder where all our video files are has a hashtag (#) in front of it so that is the first folder. Unfortunately, the app doesn't open it. If I remove the #, I can open the folder and play everything. Is this something you can/want to change?
EDIT: Changed the sign in front of the folder to a plus sign (+), it works now. Thank you for this awesome app!
I have to admit, the UI is really really nice. Nice work
The only "issue" I have on my tab is that the buttons are not that sharp (as you can see in the screenshot). Other than that, no issues so far
If you need some more info on my setup (screen res, dpi,...), just let me know
I got it.

Hi,
I don't know how you are trying to access the saved folders I had tested it, it was working. Anyway to access them just tap the button which has folder ? icon on it (in browse screen's right bottom). It will open a dialog with all the saved folder.
I think I should highlight it or you have any suggestions?
If it's not working please let me know.

Hello there,
I'm using your app right now and I absolutely love it. Clean, highly customizable, fast... You're close to perfection
Would it be possible to make an option to make the name and avatar of the post author slightly smaller when you browse? It's just a personal preference.
Dunno if I'm the only one, but search isn't working, no matter what I try to find. Looked for keywords like Samsung or OnePlus, but nothing worked. Is this a bug?
Finally, is it possible to add this program to the list of recommended programs when we click on an xda link on Google for exemple ?
Keep it up mate, I absolutely love this app and I will provide a complete french translation if you plan to keep working on this project.
Ui is very good.
Search in browse option showing zero results always.
