Project closed
Hello,
I present to you, my first android application project.
As the name suggest, this app displays almost all the lyrics of songs by Punk Rock band called Green Day.
I personally love this band, so decided to make a cool lyrics app and share with every Green Day fan out there.
Being my first project, I tried my best to make it full of features.
Features :
- Navigation Drawer
- Theme Chooser
- Album cover background on every album and song.
- Details about every album/song (like track length, writers etc)
- Split Action Bar at each track, connects whole app internally.
- Directly report any error in song lyrics (no e-mail id required, no need to type name of track for reporting error)
- 'All Songs' screen displays all the songs on a single screen.
- Search Bar in 'All Songs' make it easy to search song, if you don't know the name of album of song.
- 'Now Playing' automatically detects current playing song in media player and shows its lyrics.
- Auto-Scrolling (working on it).
- More to come !
I have made this app open source. You can get the source code here.
Changelog here.
Download app
Play Store
Youtube video, demonstrating the app
Min. requirements are API 14 i.e. Android 4.0+
Feedback and suggestions are most welcome.
I have attached some screenshots.

Initially it didn't worked for me too. Reboot your device and try again. For me, it works fine on Poweramp. If problem persists, give me a logcat so that I can look into the problem.
Edit: I just rechecked it, seems like feature is not working for poweramp. Feature is fully working with Play music and Apollo music player, I will look into problem with poweramp. Thanks for reporting.
Yes it is working for both.
Now what all u can include, you can include a player itself inside it so there would be no compatibility issues, then an artwork embedder(only for green day songs), then bring in a news tab which could show the live performances happening the a little about green day like about Bille Joe Armstrong and all like that.
There is a lot of scope for improvement and once all done make this app a paid one and release a free app with it.

I don't know about including a player, never tried something like that before. However, I will definitely try to add it.
About the news tab, I don't know if I have rights to display filtered data from official Green Day . com website into my app.
About the info. stuff, I have already added it in Settings, and linked to wikipedia link of the members.
BTW I am thinking of providing this app for free only. There will be a donate version, but that will be just for those who want to support. Otherwise, there will not be any differences between free and donate version (i won't put any ads too).
I don't aim to make profit from this app

Didn't the first boot showcase views (speccially one which came in 'All songs') overlapped with button or went out of screen?
I tested it on emulator, and I was going out of screen even on hdpi. But I am not sure on real device. Can you check once again?

Everything seems fine, btw try this. Go to settings, press on review hints.
Then app will restart with startup instructions, can you give me screenshot of the instructions that highlight with a circle at the icon in main activity.
Another similar hint comes whn you open all songs. Give you give me screenshot of these two screens?
thanks

Restart your device, now don't play any song. Directly start this app.
Press on now playing. Press on search and then press on play button.
Tell me if the app crashes or shows name of song before reboot.

Same here. Earlier when i had different rom, it crashed. Seems there was problem in rom itself, not in the app.
BTW download songs from mp3boo . com instead of some other site. They have named songs according to official release.

Hey there, can you test this apk?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/o6g8of8ulgxsmu4/com.greenday.lyrics-2.apk
After installing, enable auto scrolling in settings, then go to american idiot > american idiot
Then slide from top to bottom. Tell me if I should implement this feature in other songs too?
Initial version released on play store.

Please give me feedback about the app.
Thank You.

Actually I may have just figured it out. Make the first context (maybe: music apps open) then select the task to perform. Then on the main screen long press on the first context you made and press add. Add your second context (plugged in, or whatever), then do it again for your third, etc. Let me know if that works!

I was going through the settings and found out blocking mode. So thought of sharing here. I is very usefull when u don't want any calls and want to use your internet. No file moddiNg nothing is needed. U just need a launcher like apex or nova.
THEN just long press on home screen and select shortcut--> activities-->find settings and in settings search for the activity named 'blocking mode'.
That's all folks.
Edit : its not working. Hope someone would find how to make it work.
Naaah. Cant find it ! :|
Edit. Found it. but i have a shortcut on homescreen only. Not in settings :/
Edit again. NOT WORKING. GETTING CALLS AND NOTIFICATIONS EVEN AFTER ACTIVATION.
Actually I found out that somehow Samsung has hidden and/disabled many USEFUL features (and Blocking Mode is one of them...)
I tried to re-enable it but my Settings app kept force closing - proving that I must have been wrong somewhere....

Found it and its work.

I think I know what your problem is...try using the app "media utilities". So now when you set up the hotspot mode you can verify each hotspot to the corresponding action.

Better Explanation
Use 'Media Utilities". Click on the widget (while hotspot is of)> Backgrounds>choose Hotspot> choose 'hotspot #1 and choose shortcut>media utilities action>then 'previous'. Do the same with the play and forward with their corresponding buttons.
I dont have media utilities under the shortcuts and the hotspots are allready assainged as previous and play/pause and next but they dont work exept for the play but it opens up my player pro and starts to play music.
