I am creating this thread to start an area for Backitude server side developers and for casual users looking to implement their own flavor of location history or Google Latitude, to come and chat, ask questions, and get information.
Backitude is an android application that allows users to track their device locations in a highly configurable and continuous manner. Location data can be stored locally as (KML, CSV) or posted to a custom server. Anyone can create their own server implementation for storing or sharing location data.
Currently, three users are sharing their implementations:
http://backitude.ascanwex.de/ ([email protected])
-and-
https://bitbucket.org/nparley/mylatitude/wiki/Home ([email protected])
-and-
http://www.backituders.com ([email protected])
Let me know if more exist you would like me to add to the list!
Quick hack for using Traccar as backend
Hi,
If you want to use Traccar as the backend, then you can quickly implement a server side fix in PHP that converts the HTTP POST from Backitude to the required HTTP GET request OsmAnd style that Traccar expects.
Requirements:
- HTTP server with PHP
Place a backitude.php file with this content on your Traccar server:
PHP:
<?
$data=$_POST;
array_walk($data , create_function('&$v,$k', '$v = $k."=".$v ;'));
$url='http://127.0.0.1:5055?'.implode("&",$data);
$response = file_get_contents($url);.
echo "200 OK\n";
?>
Replace 127.0.0.1 with your Traccar server, if it's located on another host than the one you put the PHP code in.
Configure Backitude like this:
Server URL: http://<yourserveraddress>/backitude.php
Successfull response code: 200
Authentication: none
Custom field1: <enter your imei or the ID youre using in Traccar>
Latitude: lat
Longitude: lon
Accuracy: hdop
Speed: speed
Altitude: altitude
Direction Bearing: bearing
Location Timestamp (UTC): timestamp
TimeZone Offset: do not post/empty
Custom Field 1: id
Works for me! Thanks a lot for Backitude - the Traccar client is not nearly as reliable or battery friendly as Backitude.

Would this whole implementation be a lot simpler, if Backitude sent over a GET instead of a POST ?
Yes, a toggle switch between GET and POST would make your program directly compatible, if the user can set port number on the URL as well.

To repost from the other thread:
I have finally got around to opening up my Google App Engine app code. It runs on the free quota on Google App Engine and so it does not require you to pay for a server. Also as it's your app you have control of your location data, and can delete it at any time by going into the Google App Engine settings for your app. You send your location to your app and it is recorded in a database. The app allows you to share your location with other people by creating a white list of allowed Google accounts. I have also made a history page which you can use to see your updates from each day. I can't add links but you should be able to find the code at bitbucket.org / nparley
No doubt there will be bugs which I have not found. If you find one please add an issue to on the bitbucket page. I will continue to add new features as I can but am open to requests, just add a feature requestion issue on bitbucket.
Cheers,
Neil

Thanks Brian for the dedicated post.
This is how to get started with my service (www.backituders.com).
0) The service is free
1) Drop me an email to [email protected] backituders <Dot> com. You'll get a username pwd password back.
2) Start using backituders!
You can find more infos, expandoing docs and guides at www.backituders.com.
Backituders is meant as an API you can use to implement your own applications on. I provide the server and APIs to set and get positions, set alamers and alerts and so on. There is also a ready-to-use "draw my map" and "follow my device live" feature.
Will use this post as updates to the service are done.
- 20131031: display timestamps in RFC format, display speed
- 20131104: changed the icons on the map to reflect direction (8 main dir) when available.
- 20131104: sono disponibili istruzioni base in italiano.
Thanks any for testing.

Hi,
Sorry I might not have been clear in my instructions. You have to keep the file named app.yaml as this is the file Google App Engine looks for and will create a new one if not found. It is inside this file where you have to make the edit, the top line contains `application: YOURAPPNAME` here you have to change YOURAPPNAME to JMlatitude.

This probably means you have your Google maps api key wrong or you did not fill in your Google maps api in when you setup the app. The instructions show you where to get the browser api key from, it's this page https://code.google.com/apis to get your Google maps browser api key. You can go here https://appengine.google.com log in to your app, click on data store viewer, in the by kind drop down pick maps the keyid should equal the key you get from the Google api console. You can edit it if it's not correct. If you have no maps kind in the data store you need to delete all the users and run the setup again.
Hopes this gives you some help trubble shooting,

Hello,
I would like to get a list of database names in code. I'm not looking for databases outside my application/package, just those in my /data/data/<my_package>/database folder.
I can easily locate them on the file system and open them using adb and sqlite3,
but I need to dynamically get a list of databases so that I can open and manage them in code.
I currently use a separate database to keep track of database names as they get created/deleted through my application, but I imagine there is a way to get a list of databases directly via SQL query or some sqlite library call.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,
-dj
This should be in the "Android Development" forum.
BTW, I tried to post this question in a more topical "Android Development" forum, but I'm an XDA newb and don't have permissions to post in there.
Maybe these links can help you? I don't do much droid programming anymore and I never worked with databases in droid. Also welcome to XDA
http://www.devx.com/wireless/Article/40842
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/database/sqlite/package-summary.html
solution
The solution turned out to be very simple.
The main application context has a databaseList() function that, conveniently, returns a list of database names associated with the application.
String[] dbList = getApplicationContext().databaseList();
Thanks for the links dbzfanatic. devx looks like a good resource... it's going on my bookmark bar for sure.
Glad I could help and thanks for posting the solution for others who might have the same question. Since it's a string array I'm guessing the function just returns the DB names and not handles to them?

This thread remains open for getting your answer.
Moved to related forum.
WP7 doesn't natively understand the format, of course, so you'd need an app that could process it. The app would have to parse the playlist files, acquire the actual media files, and then play the media files (such as through a MediaElement) one at a time in the order specified by the playlist(s). None of this should be too hard.
Now, if you want to be able to open a .PLS file directly on WP7 - that is, from an email attachment or a download link on a webpage or something like that - you'll need to be able to set file associations. This is possible, but requires at least interop-unlock on your phone or root-unlock on your app. You need to add an entry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT for .PLS, with the default value specifying something like "plsplaylist", and then create HKCR\plsplaylist, give it a registry value called EditFlags of 0x00010000, and create additional registry keys HKCR\plsplaylist\shell\open\command with a default value of your app's launch URI (app://{APP_PRODUCT_ID_HERE}/_default?pls=%s). To understand that, your app would need to have a check in its OnNavigatedTo event that examines the parameters of the navigation for the key "pls" and loads the file represented by its value.
Short URL Resolver handles the short URLs typically used in social networks: t.co, goo.gl, bit.ly, etc.
Why would you need a (big) web browser to open a Youtube video. Click this link on your Android phone: Video (Then try again after installing this app to see the difference).
Sure, there are other apps that do this, but I think mine has unique features:
Doesn't get in the way: It's small (~200kb). Minimal user interface. Does exactly 1 thing and does it right.
Handles Facebook's external links. Tired of launching the browser to open a m.facebook.com?l.php URL? No more.
Handles Youtube's attribution links. These should be handled by the Youtube app (Google's fault). Short URL Resolver handles them for you, so you get to see the video on the Youtube app. No browser involved.
Handles Tapatalk api click links.
Handles Google.com/url links. They are used in the Play Store descriptions, for example.
Also, it's free, and ad-free. You can make an in-app donation if you feel it's worth it.
It doesn't use any third party service for resolving the URLs. The basic principle is making an HTTP request and determining where it's being redirected.
It's my first public Android App, but I think it's the best of its kind (you can try and prove me wrong X-D)
Download
I'm also attaching the latest version to this post, for those that can't access the Google Play Store.
Just updated to support Tapatalk links... I didn't notice those api click links Tapatalk generates until I was testing this thread
Really awesome! Certainly the best, there isn't any other app that works so ****ing good. It makes easier moving between apps and improve the workflow. Thanks a lot, keep going!

I'm the author of CrappaLinks. If you're already using CrappaLinks: you can use it for apps that may not be supported by CrappaLinks, or use it for shortened URLs (as CrappaLinks doesn't unshorten URLs yet.) It's also useful if you come across a shortened/masked link in a document or similar.
CrappaLinks removes masking from *specific* apps that mask your links. This app can be used anywhere for unmasking *and* unshortening.
I personally use it alongside CrappaLinks, for the reasons I've mentioned above.

Gotcha. Do you plan on adding universal link unmasking to CrappaLinks in future? Or just adding support for individual apps? (Support for slickdeals app would be great). The reason why I ask this is because the url shortner service that app uses is blocked by Adblock and because of that I can't open ANY links from that app. Also same with adf(dot)ly links
Regardless I'll be using this alongside CrappaLinks that way most if not all links on my phone will be unmasked regardless of the app. Thanks @op for this.

Putting it in very simple terms, the only way to unshorten these URLs is:
"Open" the URL -> See if the "destination" is different
This requires a connection to the host that is shortening the URLs. If you're blocking it (by using Adblock for example,) it's not possible to connect at all, so all unshortening apps will fail as well.
You may be able to white list whatever hosts you want in Adblock. Check their help pages and see for yourself, not sure.
About CrappaLinks requests, please ask in the CrappaLinks thread as to keep this one on topic.

Just installed slickdeals app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.slickdeals.android), but the URLs generated by the app aren't like yours... Example:
http://slickdeals.net/?sdtrk=android&api_key_id=872706&pno=112586&lno=1
You see the destination URL is not visible there (I have to contact their server to get it).... Also, there URL is too generic to add it to the manifest. I.e., I don't want to handle all links to slickdeals.net... just the ones that mask redirection links.
http://slickdeals.net/click?whatever (good, I can match the /click prefix)
http://slickdeals.ne/?whatever (bad, too generic, would catch urls that arent redirections)

Thanks for looking into this for me. I just upgraded the app to the latest version.
And it turns out...It uses 2 redirects.
First when you click on a link from the app.. It uses this http://slickdeals.net/?sdtrk=android&api_key_id=1779234&pno=112588&lno=1 just like what you mentioned above.
And then that above link redirects like this... http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-122526...20Product%2520Catalog&quantity=1&str_nbr=2659
As you can see clicking on both of the above links redirects you to the same page...But the second redirection "www.jdoqocy.com" happens really fast..so that's why its hard to see. I hope this helps.
Basically whenever I click a link from the app... the first redirection "slickdeals.net/?..." to "www.jdoqocy.com" happens automatically but the second redirection doesn't happen because of the Adblock. I tried adding "jdoqocy.com" to Whitelist on Adblock but that messes up app itself.
Looks like www.jdoqocy.com is owned by Commission Junction, so I guess its pay per click or something.
P.S. Fuerteventura looks like an awesome island. I hope to check it out someday.

Can you provide some sample URLs? I just tried to shorten a url with their service, and I don't see the original URL anywhere
http://*******/IFOc0 <= this will get you to www.google.es after the spam.
UPDATE: It seems that site is forbiden here. Anyway, you can see that the URL path is just IF0c0...

The shortened urls have no relation to the actual url whatsoever, but some forums use scripts to convert all links to this format:
Examples:
http://*******/1474226/http://lukemovement.wordpress.com
http://*******/1474226/http://newsplus.co/features/
The destination url is in the Long url itself.
The asterisks are adf (dot) ly, as this these links cannot be posted on xda.
For the shortened url however, this service can be used to bypass the Ad, maybe it will be useful: de-ads.net
you can paste links on this page to go directly to the destination page....
Thanks a lot for considering this man!

That's something up to the Ebay app developers. Currently their app is registered to handle only these urls patterns, according to the AndroidManifest.xml file:
http://pages.ebay.com/android/item/view/
http://pages.ebay.com/android/item/query/
http://www.ebay.com/motors/garage/pub/vehicle/
http://www.ebay.com/mtr/garage/pub/vehicle/
Unless the URL is in that format, the ebay app won't do anything to open it.

Feedly URLs
Hi,
Excellent app!
Just so you know: Feedly shortens URLs under some circumstances.
It gives a you URL like this:
feedly (dot) com/e/lTWp53yG (I'm new so no URLs for me!)
which redirects to some random Techdirt article.
Would it be possible to add support for those too?
Feedly also uses those shortened URLs when sharing articles. I have no idea how Android's sharing infrastructure works, but it'd be nice to be able to "share" them with your app so they could get de-crappified. (Yeah, this would add some steps to the sharing process, but I'd rather go through a few more steps than share obfuscated URLs.)

Interesting and useful app, but without an APK, I'm afraid you'll have problems making this success.

Apk Binder
Dear friends
Please help me for the apk Binder app (in both Droidjack and Androrat) they does not work!
I think there should be another way to bind or mix 2 apk files.(with Winrar or ...)
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
First I'm sorry if I'm posting in wrong forum!
As you can see I'm new in Android development and I need some help/advise. What I need is a little clarification. So:
1. App that pull data from MySQL database. Is it possible?
2. User can input data ( text, date and hour ) then this data will be saved into database.
3. Also will have web site for admin (admin panel) where administrator will log in and can see saved data in DB.
So the web part for admin panel is not an issue. I will make it with PHP and MYSQL. What I can't understand is how the App will send/save/pull data from DB? What DB I need to use to make it work?

I believe this is what you are looking for: Sugar ORM. It is specifically designed to make Android interaction with a database easy.
