About Open Mic+
Google Now, Everywhere.
As featured on XDA, LifeHacker, SlashGear, Android Community, Android Spin, dotTech, AndroidInt'l, and more!
With Open Mic+ for Google Now, access all the commands from anywhere on your phone. Simply say "Okay Google" or wave your hand in front of the screen. Screen on, screen off Google Now will be ready to listen.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Google Now becomes more conversational as after a search just say Okay Google to start a new one. And even better get the answers to your questions while your hands are tied, or when you're on the couch, or in the car.
TOMORROW'S FEATURES TODAY
Everybody's talking about the new Touchless Controls features for the Moto X, but now any phone that is running Jelly Bean or higher can have the same experience.
SEAMLESS
Open Mic+ will run in the background and can be configured to start at boot so that it truly becomes part of the phone.
TASKER INTEGRATION
Truly automate your device by combining the endless command list of Tasker with the ease of access of Open Mic!
OFFLINE
Open Mic+ uses offline voice recognition which means less data usage and faster results.

Changelog:
5.4:
- Google has asked me to remove the Google Speech Engine due to high server traffic. From here on out, the only supported speech engine will be PocketSphinx... Kind of sucks, but you know you're legitimate when you are producing enough traffic for Google to care about you
- Because of this change Tasker commands are not supported... yet (I know a way just need more time). For now use my other app Commandr http://goo.gl/ymwQ46
- Fixes for conflicts in Lollipop
- Pocketsphinx optimization
5.3:
- bug and crash fixes
5.2:
- bug and crash fixes

- Fix Tasker Command problems (this update will wipe your current commands)
- Visual feedback to show what Open Mic+ is doing
- Redesigned Support interface which will auto-send logs and device information (with consent) and will allow two-way conversations without an email address (Huge thanks to Sky Kelsey and the Apptentive Team!)
- Targeted Surveys which will allow me to push updates more effectively

4.2:
★ Force close and Can't Reach Google fixes (if you are still having this issue please email me)

WHAT'S DIFFERENT IN THE DONATE VERSION
Hi, my name is Ryan Senanayake and I'm a Junior still in high school. As the amount of time I have spent on this project grows to more than 1000 hours, I need to better justify the time I spend on development. The Free version will in no way be hobbled and will continue to receive bug fixes + performance/battery improvements, but from now on, new features will be added to the Donate version. It will only cost $2 and if you are not able to spend this, just shoot me an email and I'll send you one for free.

Great app! Currently testing on my GT-I9300. Screen-off mode works like a charm, don't really need to worry about power consumption because of my extended battery haha.
Is it possible to keep the lockscreen while in screen off mode?
Nice! but could you provide an option to switch it off too? Since this affects the battery, I'd like to run this just when I'm in my car and then switch it off after I reach my destination.
Thanks
Works good on galaxy s4 but screen mode off doesn't unlock screen when activated. I hear it in background but lock screen stays locked...

Unfortunately no, it seems that Google Now only works if the lockscreen is deactivated. But what I'm trying to do is only allow the user to use Google Now above the lockscreen and have to still enter the password to use any other apps.

The current ways to do this are pretty sporadic as the Android apis are bad. I'm focusing on the new speech recognition as it gives me more control, but after I finish that I'll work on resolving this issue.

Thanks for this app,I'll give a try
When I have it enabled, it beeps randomly in the background all day long, without being actually "activated" or popping up with the Google Now interface.
This is with the hotword detection on, but with swipe-to-activate OFF

Thanks, this issue is because Google speech recognition doesn't natively support continuous recognition. I have to start it every few seconds. As there is no way to turn off the beep sound, I have to use a dirty hack of silencing the system audio and turning it back on. Sometimes the timing is off and the beep gets through anyways. This problem and many more will go away once I implement my own speech recognition
Website updated with real-time download counter. (I know should be working on updates, but I'm really new to doing low-level sound processing so I needed a break) We're at 46,812, let's try to get that # over 50,000!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But I'm pretty sure that any issue like that is an issue with the kernel and not with the app. I'm pretty sure an app doesn't have the ability to cause a problem that big (unless it's a root app). Is your phone rooted? If so what kernel?
Good idea, didn't seem to work on my Samsung Galaxy 3 AT&T with MIUI. (Yes I enabled the screen off options and such ) No worries though I don't plan on needing/using this I need every little bit of battery I can savor haha.

My first app, it's pretty basic but it gets the job done. The idea behind Keep Me Alert is that randomly it will sound a gently alarm to make sure you haven't fallen asleep or about to fall asleep. There is also a silent mode the vibrates that can be used when your in a meeting or class and don't want to disturb others.
I welcome and would appreciate all constructive feedback. Thanks.
It's in the app store at https://market.android.com/details?id=com.KeepMeAlert
New version is available. I think I've finally got all the bugs squashed. As always please give feedback! Thanks!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.KeepMeAlert
Do you have a long drive? Long boring class or meeting? Just want some entertainment? Keep Me Alert app helps keep you stay focused, entertained, and warns you if you are losing alertness! Keep me alert features three different modes - Interactive, Non-Interactive, and Silent Mode.
In interactive mode you randomly get asked questions and have to respond back in order to prove you are alert! After each question a special algorithm determines your alertness level and warns you if your alertness level is low. Even if you don't need help staying alert it's entertaining just to hear the app ask you questions and respond to you
In Non-Interactive mode one of several alarms randomly sounds to to help boost your alertness level if it diminishing.In silent mode the app randomly vibrates to help boost your alertness level if it is diminishing. This mode is great for situations where you don't want to disturb others!
V1.4
Huge number of changes, it's like a whole new app
New interactive mode asks questions and expects a response. If you don't respond she will let you have it!
Expiration time out increased to 40 minutes.
Drumroll sound effect alarm added.
Several tweaks to silent mode to make it more effective.
Numerous enhancments to the user interface
Numerous bug fixes
Looks like a pretty great idea for an app. But... I launched the app and immediatly clicked the big "alarm off" button. This causes a force close every time.
Otherwise thanks for making this.

Hi everyone! Thank you for your help in getting CM up to a flawless standard! We are now almost ready to deploy CM 1.5 - it will include MMS blocking, Class0 auto replies and many other new and very cool features.
We need your help now to iron out any remaining bugs before we embark on a daemon rebuild. Please download the app from the market and get testing! Here are the issues we want to address specifically:
- If you have problems regaining 3G after the telephony restart. This should have been fixed. If not, please try "Slow radio restart" in Debugging and report your results!
- Issues moving list priorities on Light or Dark theme. Again, if you have issues, please switch to the other theme, try again and then report back.
- Notification color schemes. We are interested if the new notifications comply with the majority of frameworks.
Thank you in advance for all your great work, this ultra-awesome app is as much a child of yours as it is of ours

This is a fully functional application. However, after a 24 hour demo period it will start nagging you to buy the Key, which will remove all nag
screens and timeouts from the interface. The nag screens are pretty light though, so users who dont want to spend can live with them.

Great, just great! Better even than your own Root Call Blocker
Any issues to report? We are working on a new build, so now is the time...
I am sorry guys , but no issue to report so far
Thats good news
So, has anyone had a chance to do some more testing?
Been using the free version for just over a few weeks and haven't run into any problems so far. Running ARHD 6.0.2 on HTC Sensation and it runs perfect. Just purchased a license, literally 10 mins ago.
Trying to convince my folks to install it on their phones.
Will update if I see any issues.
Curious what the difference between Root Call Blocker and Call Master is? I noticed you have them both on the market, but they seem very similar. Does either have any advantages or different features?
Sent from my MIUI.us Sensation 4G using XDA App
Yes, they are different. RCB is for simple folk, CM for advanced users. Look in the signature for a feature rundown. Or maybe just try them both and see for yourself...
By the way, CM is on sale at $4.98 - thats $3 off the usual price. Happy New Year!

Also, is it normal for my phones radio to lose signal then start back up after enabling CM? It's starts right back so no big deal, but just a little strange.

Not quite. CM is the evolution of RCB - built for maximum flexibility, whereas RCB is built for brute force and simplicity. You will only gain features.
Our root telephony daemon replaces android's standard RIL (Radio Interface Layer). The moment when your network connection is lost during startup is when we inject the daemon into the telephony service. This is normal. Its what we pride ourselves on.

Hi everyone. Im one of the developers of SwitchMe, and app that allows multiple secure logins into separate installations of android on a single device. The pr is after the break.
I really need a few people to check into some issues people on some roms have been experiencing. There are some warnings involved:
- testers must perform a full nandroid backup before using the app, it is not our responsibility if you start getting boot loops or whatnot
- if you report results or bugs, please use the "Write to us" function in the app whenever possible, and always describe the issue in the header of the logs you send
- if you post here, bes sure to include your device type and rom
- if you have apps installed on sd, be sure to mention that as well
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of an
account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain few apps,
others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data.
Why is this functionality useful?
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Gaming – with multiple installations of Android on a single device, you can now play online MMOs as different characters.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles without games or instant messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
These of course are only suggestions - there are plenty of other uses for the functionality SwitchMe offers.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.switchme
The Lite version allows the creation of two profiles, enough to test on.
Screens:
will this allow me to switch between ROMs, like a ROM manager?
No. It creates multiple installs of your base rom. There is an app called boot manager, but it will never support the fire...

Ah. Was hoping it was like Boot Manager. Damn.
Switchme seems to work as desired. I'm the only one using my fire tho so there isn't much need for it. Come to to think of it, it would keep people out of my account when its being passed around at my buddies house lol.
Why do you say boot manager will never have support on the kindle fire?
Considering their progress over the last year and a half - 6! new devices - it will take forever.
SwitchMe 1.2 has been rolled out and now includes a lockscreen replacement:
1.2
Added lock screen for logging in and out
More stable Fast switch implementation
Reworked UI colors
Now, its very important that we get some feedback on how this big new feature works, so please read up on it in the help and post your thoughts!
1.2.2 - HOTFIX 2
Reworked widget on qHD+ displays
Fixed widget text on HC and ICS
Fast switch improved on older devices

Going to be kinda busy during the week but I'll try to post any questions/issues if I come across any. If I don't get to it during the week, I will defiantly spend some time using it on the weekend
Thanks, i look forward to some feedback - for a developer good feedback in forums is much better than "doesnt work - 1 star" type reviews on the market.

Fixed device specific switch screen crashes and issues
Fixed UI bug in switch screen preferences
If anyohe had problems with superuser before, this should fix them. Please let me know if that is the case, its important we get some feedback here!

I couldn't get wifi to connect last week (only time i had to try it) I'll give it another go tonight.

The kindle fire is very limited on storage with no option of expandable storage

Hello, I just came across this thread and had to say something, I love your Switchme app. Me and my wife both use my fire and it was driving me crazy not being able to customize it how I wanted. Then I found your app in the market and was ecstatic to try it. It worked like a dream! Your latest update just added that little touch that made it sol worth it. Thank you so much for this function and smooth integration.

Then I found your app in the market and was ecstatic to try it. It worked like a dream! Your latest update just added that little touch that made it sol worth it. Thank you so much for this function and smooth integration.

Condi (previously Mini Tasker) is a free android automation app for ICS or higher.
The app allows users to quickly set up fairly complex actions when certain conditions are met, without sacrificing battery life, and with the ability to easily share tasks between users. We never poll (everything comes from a broadcast), and we're pretty minimalistic so the memory footprint is reasonable. We use google play services to detect location using low power sensors and recognize activity like walking or driving.
This is a university project, and our first android app, we're very humbled by over 30k downloads, this is very unexpected and we're very grateful for the feedback and bug reports, you're awesome!
Me and my partner made this app this summer for academic credit so we give it out completely for free, without ads or tracking.
We decided to change the name to avoid any conflicts with the original Tasker (Pent is a nice person and you should buy his app), too bad there are so many reviews already out there using the old name.
This week we finally submitted the project (after some delays), which means we can start changing big stuff (the last 10 or so releases we're bug fixes only). We're gonna push our first beta version next sunday to the beta channel, please subscribe to this mailing list to get it: https://groups.google.com/d/forum/minitasker
Your feedback is appreciated, you can email us at [email protected] or reply here.
Thanks,
Anton and Michal
Download Condi (previously Mini Tasker) at Google Play
Changes:
v0.2.13
* volume control ui bug fixed
* activity detection delay setting more visible
* UTF-8 support for task sharing
v0.2.12
* new condition - on boot
* location editor auto focuses on current location, minimal radius enforcement of 75 meters as it's unlikely the low power sensors will ever give a higher accuracy than that.
* music player song picker now uses native dialog and native addresses - support for most players that can open mp3
* music player - play pause toggle buttons now use broadcasts instead of keyboard presses - no longer crashes youtube, get's stuck on total command etc.
* activity recognition (i.e. drive walk...) upped the confidence level, and now there's a programmable delay for the end task (see the settings window).
* fixed a crash on forwarding SMS from known numbers.
* wifi still wasn't included as it wasn't stable enough for the time.
v0.2.10
* wifi crash fixed, can't send sms during calls fix
* volume control now properly mutes in all cases
v0.2.9
* Inverse locations (start when leaving a location)
* Delete actions and conditions from the edit screen
* A lot of memory leak fixes
v0.2.4:
* I messed up with 0.2.3 a bit, sms forwarding and call silencing are not using the correct values of the message and origin.
* Fixed a rare crash on the settings dialog
* Fixed a calendar condition crash when no calendars / events exist.
* Apparently a lot of times our application was killed in the background for not responding, and this corrupted the states of events and made things not run as expected, so now there's a background service that should take care of that. Memory footprint is around 5mb which is still less then Tasker.
* Superuser actions sometime hanged the app, and made it crash for ANR. This should now be taken care of
Can Mini Tasker set the network mode? ie. WCDMA only, WCDMA Preferred, LTE/GSM/WCDMA etc.
Can it enable/disable usb tethering?
network mode should be easy enough, we already play with these settings on the "3g toggle", i just need to generalize it a bit.
i'll look into the tethering thing.
i'm adding both to the next major release. it might take 2 weeks or so for our work to be graded, then i'll push it to the public channel.
if you want you can join the alpha channel here and i'll try to get something together there sooner.
more things that will be added next are:
* better calendar support (currently doesn't support repeat events)
* wifi on/off condition
* wifi near ssid condition
suggestions are welcome
Not working on Galaxy S3 CM10.1 RC2. Try to open play list when connecting any headset. But after I connected, mini tasker disabled that profile ( I have poweramp, uninstalled Apollo).

Thanks for reply and info.
As far as further suggestions....I've seen "wifi near" used in several apps but never saw a "bluetooth near" option....I don't know if it's feasible but if you can specify a specific "id" it could quickly distinguish when I'm home or in the car and then enable the appropriate commands such as linking to my car/home cordless phones via bluetooth.
I'd like to try your app but I can't find it on the Play Store and when I access Play Store with a browser it says my device is not compatible. I have a nexus 7 running android 4.3
Afaik bluetooth near is not a broadcast.
It should be much cleaner to add bluetooth state changed to detect the car connecting.
The car dock condition and activity detection in the current stable are already quite cool.
My car detection is based on charger+dock. The dock is enable by another software when the bluetooth connects.
Anyway, added to the wishlist.
The app works very well on my Nexus 7 but I think I need to add a 10" screenshot to make the market consider it compatible. I'll try to arrange that now.

I didn't test with poweramp yet, i did with Apollo.
Not all players support internal storage style urls, even Google Play music fails.
That means any app that doesn't work right now needs custom support with some sort of url hack, which makes sharing profiles almost impossible across different setups.
I'll try to tackle this issue on the next major.
For now, try adding a launch app action, and a play music button emulation action. I'll try to arrange better support for more apps soon.

how about using incoming sms as a trigger to do the app launching etc?

it's possible already but there's no ui to easily do this atm. right now you can add an action to the sms forward condition but i guess you'll want to match the text as well and also, not do the forwarding part.
added to the wishlist.
Support for tablets is now available.
Still no major changes or new features as our work is yet to be graded.

Wow, this is awesome!
No leaving location?
Tasker is missing this too, is it possible to have a "Not at Location" as an event? I'd like to be able to send a message to my wife when I'm leaving work, but there is no way to set an event for when leaving a location.
The real tasker has a concept of "end task", we do implicit end task (we automatically guess or restore to last state).
Location indeed is missing an inverse, i'll add it up on the next major release.
What you might want to do for now is 3 conditions:
Time based - evening
Location - work
Activity - driving
Conditions are combined with "and".
btw I just pushed an update to fix a regression on forwarding sms and silencing calls, also a couple of crashes reported today.
Update is avaliable now on google play.
Also you can now use the %%PHONE%% variable in the text of the send sms action when the condition is phone call silencing.
This might be useful to tell your other phone you just had a call.

Nice app. Tried it out this morning. One thing I would have liked to do, but could not find the option... Is there a way (or could it be added) to set it so bluetooth and wifi go on when I launch Google maps and navigation? I don't see an 'at launch' trigger.
I don't run them regularly for battery reasons (HTC One's big downfall is the middle of the road battery).

Hi everyone, first of all, wow, thanks for all the kind words, we really didn't expect to be noticed so quickly
A quick update: we did fix the application-not-responding crashes almost entirely, only now there's a new problem...
We've got a couple of crashes on 0.2.4, mostly from toasts launched from the background, and like always, these only started after we published the update.
We're gonna push a fix for these real soon, keep the crash reports flowing, they help a lot.
I setup a task that "When Driving" navigates me to my home address between 15:30 and 18:30 and it repeats every weekday.
The two problems that I ran into is that is uses Waze(which is installed) instead of Google Maps. I cannot choose what app I want to use if I have multiple installed.
The second problem is that I had to travel at over 50mph before the task kicked in. I cannot choose a speed for it to kick in.
Other than that it is a very solid app. :cyclops:
Really love this app do far. Thank you and good luck - I hope you get the grades you deserve.
One question... I hope you can help me please...
I want Mini Tasker to turn off my Mobile Data connection when I get home and turn on my WiFi... I think I've managed to sort that bit.
But how do I reverse it so when I leave home it turns off my WiFi and turns on my Data Connection?
I'm guessing I'm missing something glaringly obvious.
Thank you.

Something else I notice is that if I'm in stop and go traffic (I have Mini Tasker turn bluetooth on while driving and biking) the bluetooth will turn back off if I'm stopped. Technically the Mini Tasker command is only to turn on bluetooth, not to turn it off when not driving or biking.
Is this supposed to happen? If so could you separate the on and off and also put it in the description that it will do so? That would be very helpful. =]

Thank you!
Thank you! I have been looking for a habit tracker app that I like for literally years. This is the first one that has all the features I want, with great looking charts and graphs! Thanks so much!
Application that i waiting for
Wow! I will try this app!
Thx for creating this great apps.
Neat I like the UI :good:
Great app! here is some suggestions:
1- Please add "custom starting week date" option. I live in Iran and our weeks starts on Saturday.
2- Add workdays option in new habit menu. some habits only doable in worktime!
3- The Dark theme
4- Add custom colors for each habit.(random or selectable) like "google keep" app
5- In graphs you can add "from beginning" in time period selections.
this app has an fantastic idea and very good looking ui
(sorry for my english)
Thanks,its been quite a work to get it looking right.
@scoderx0e
Really coolish app, mate, keep your great work. :good:
Dark theme & ability to set week starting day would be nice.

Very nice app! I've been looking for something like this for a while, almost made something similar out of need. Thank you very much.

One more suggestion - ability to turn off the vibrations in reminder, I really don't like when my phone vibrates ...

Even I made "Habbits" out of need
one more...
some habbits needs to be practice more then once a day!!
maybe you can find a way to add it into the GUI - which is real sweat...
Very cool thinking man - polished concept, maybe one day google will integrate it into "Google Keep" / Calander
really good start..
any plan for open sourcing..?
@eliranh - I will surely make space for these kind of habits,but my primary aim right now is to get everything in a stable state.
@ewoks - I haven't thought about open sourcing yet,but I will if there is a need to or if I am not able to maintain the app anymore myself.
Great app, thank you!
I have one suggestion and one occurrence:
- less space between the date and the name of the day would be more readable, especially if you have a lot of 'habits'.
- clicking on a day to mark it blue/red/green causes delays. Sometimes of several seconds. I don't think that it is my device, but rather the writing process into the database?!
My device is a Wiki Cink Peax 2 (Quadcore Mediatek CPU, 1 GB RAM, JB 4.1.2).
Thanks & Cheers!
Yes the delays are because of database,I am working on ways of postponing the writing process until the activity has entered onPause().That way it will be more responsive.
The app is working quite well for me so far. Well done. I'll certainly rate it and write a review after using it for a month.

Update is out in the play store. App works now much smoother, but still has some lags and input delays.
Good idea to drag and drop habits.
