[WIDGET][2.1+] XKCD Now Home Screen Widget - Android Apps and Games

Hi,
So this is my first time posting an app/widget to the forums. After seeing xkcd.com/now, I thought it deserved to be made into a widget that doesn't require internet connection, so I used this project to learn how to make android widgets. Turns out it's simpler than I thought.
To read this widget you have to find your location on the inside Earth map, and compare its location to the 24 hour clock on the outside.
Here is a more in depth explanation.
All of xkcd.com is creative commons so there shouldn't be a problem with distributing this app.
Here is the play store URL: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.reshefelisha.xkcdnowwidget
In the attached screenshot you can see how it works. I'm in the US West Coast, so it gives you a demonstration of how to read the clock.
Enjoy

So this somehow made the front page of XDA, I'm honoured, but I'd like to remind everyone that this is just an adaptation of xkcd.com/now , and doesn't account for DST. It's funny that it made the front page on the day that DST takes effect, though.
I'll try to make an update that corrects it partially.

Don't do timezone adaptions.
Europe goes into DST in 3 weeks.

I'm planning to have a checkbox to enable/disable DST. If it's enabled the whole map rotates 15 degrees. If it's disabled it stays normal.

Very useful to stay in contact with friends from XDA, Google+ and other networks. Really handy app, sir. But please do me a favor and change the font into something "normal" . And the option for enabling/disabling DST is a good idea, as well. Grand idea!

Why is it 26MB?

It's the way Randall Muroe first coded it. it has to contain 96 pictures and picks one every 15. Kind of a bummer. Here's the source if you're suspicious that it does more than it claims: https://github.com/Shef-/XKCDNowWidget

Added Live Wallpaper and DST support
I added a live wallpaper and the option for DST. It's all part of the same app so that you only need to download the 26mb file once and all resources are shared.

Nice Widget, but I have a suggestion:
For shrinking apk size you just need to compress .png files better
Using "PNGGauntlet" I just got the "xkdc01.png" from 272,44 KB to 195,95.
That's 72% of original image size, without any loss of quality!
That, would be taking down the app weight to about 20mb if I did the maths correctly.
And it's lossless: its just better algorithms re-encoding the png files and removing extra information unneeded for the image.
You can use any program you like, i used PNGGauntlet just because it's so easy to use, and works good enough for me!
A little downside: re-encoding takes time, and in olds computer a lot of time, but in my opinion, for something like this, its worth it.
Bye!

it works very well, helped me to save more than 2MB from my app

Wow, I used PNGGauntlet and it went from 25.6Mb to 18.1. I'll include the optimized png's in the next update.

Great job! Really nice widget!
As I live in NL but I'm originally from Greece and I travel very often to the US (and have email/phone conversations pretty often with people @ US), this will be very handy!!!
Just installed it on all my android devices!

Very nice app!
is it possible to change the font and make this whole thing more...ummm more transparent? it´s very useful, but it still looks like a comic...
btw: in the playstore are now about 2 more apps like yours

Mini Weather (English Beta) WM6.1

Hello everyone,
With permission from the creator of mini weather I am posting an english version of the program.
Currently is shows weather conditions in the appointment slide panel.
There is no icons in this version for weather conditions.
I will post screen shots later today when I get home from work.

***Update I cant get the .rar file to my work computer to update the help files***
I will have to wait till I get hime to add the attachment
Ok here is the file, going to try and create a cab file for it, and will update the creator of the file.
Any issue's please post here, also if you notice spelling errors please post here.
Thank

I think maybe if you switch from www.google.com to somethingl ike www.google.co.uk (this is in the miniconfig1.ini)
I will ask the developer.

I have been googleing this whole evening but failed. www.google.co.uk only give temperature in C for current condition but not tomorrow and the following day. Even that it was indicated as ??F. It should be ??C. I believe that F is hard-coded.
Hopefully the developer will improve further on this product.
Thanks for your help anyway.

great product....needs icons that shows the clouds for cloudy and sun for sunny etc....can someone work on this...maybe copying and pasting pics from the internet and then assigning them to values in the coding....if someone can give explanation on how..i can test it
ryah I know the chinese version has the icons, this is a first beta in english. I am not sure what he is programming in. I used PE Explorer to edit some spelling issues I originally saw. I have the icon set also that he is using with the Chinese version.
Also I have created a CAB file for it, will post it when I get to work. It cretates the folders, and puts the files in, and also created a RAI for :MINIWEATHER (thinking for future).

Location Display
I added the following to all CityStartStr like this:
CityStartStr=postal_code data="
and I get the City Location to be displayed
Nice, did you figure out the Celcius:

nope. those are sent by the server so some conversion routine need to be coded in the program.
thanks
Does that show the zip code or the city when you added that?
X
Xfaith,
I have installed this and it kind of works. I don't get what I had expected after modifying the ini file. I changed the city which I think worked but I do not get current weather and I don't get extended weather (more than one day). I am sure that I have made a mistake with my modification of the ini. After I modify the ini file do I have to reboot the phone to see the change?
Select update now.
Right now I only show today/tommrow on my slide panel, have not figured out (have not had the time) to go past that and see what else I can get going.
I tried to email the developer to add Celcius support from the settings pane, and he said give it about a week for icons, the chinese version already supports the Icons.
I am working on updating the .cab file I created, but can only do so much.

It show the city name. I tried to upload my homescreen pic but xda server is having problem now.
Thanks
No problem I used <city data in mine instead, which provides the same thing. The developer gave me an update but it was just the spelling issues that I already noticed. I wish I knew what language the program was written in. Or better yet could read the chinese version a little to compare the two.
But I can wait a bit longer as he updates the english version. Hopefully it will be less the a week before we can start seeing icons.

In my case if I use <city data I'll get this:
<city data="Kuala Lumpur, Kuala Lumpur"
so,
<postal_code data="Kuala Lumpur" is more appropriate. Well, whatever, we achieved what we wanted to see; that matters.
I dont mind waiting for the icons. My wish list:
- choice between celcius and fahrenheit
- display more days
- everything should be done through the settings panel rather than having to modify the .ini file.
- multiple cities choice
- able to modify city name (especially long names which I want to truncate)
Question: does the "Get Network Time" update the device clock? and can I change to a different server to get the time and the weather report?

I got it, messed around with it at work (sitting outside) and it looked amazing. Then went to use it at the end of the day on my drive home (just to test it out) and it never successfully routed me by the time I got home so I've yet to have a "real world experience" with it, but I assume the servers were just getting hammered or something (connects to server to route, re-route, etc).
Gonna keep messing with it tho because it seems pretty impressive for a beta.
Edit: and before people ask, I don't think sharing the apk is a good idea. It definitely does an online authentication check every time you run it.
anyone wanna post the .apk?

hahah.
Well all of a sudden during the authentication step mine is telling me there is an update available and says update or no thanks. If i click update it takes me to the market with a search for the publisher which doesn't return wikitude drive (nor is it available anymore if i search for it) and if i click don't update, it says auth failed and doesn't let me do anything.
Maybe a glitch? Maybe they revoked the beta?
Edit: Just found this on their website.
May 21, 2010 in News
Fellow testers,
Thank you for participating in our Wikitude Beta Test phase and also thank you for the great feedback!
** Currently Wikitude Drive does not work because the routing server is disabled **
Noooooo!
I guess I'll just run the Camera app with the Navigation in the Background for now.
is it full? I cannot see it on the market, only the browser....
Can anyone post the apk?

I don't think it's a good idea. Unless someone is willing to hack it to get around the activation step, it is definitely doing an online check against their servers every time you use the app. Color me paranoid, but I suspect they are keeping a close eye on the activation server
There have been cases of closed beta's being pulled before for people sharing APK files, and I have a feeling it would not take long to shut this down if people start doing that.

For those, who have a beta version. The server is now up again.
please be patient, there are only a few slots for beta testers.
the user amount on the server is limited, if its full -> you'll get a messeage: authentification faild.
Have a safe test drive!

Both of these were first 2 things I noticed/thought of when playing around with this app. Another thing, tho probably a lot more complex, would be options to tweak the route/routing algorithm. IE, avoid toll roads, stay on highway, avoid highways. If feasible, this would be a great enhancement!
Congrats on creating such a unique and useful app!
quick question regarding this app, is it using gps signal or does it require 3g/2g data?
jblazea50 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It requires GPS Signal to get your current position.
The internet connection e.g 3G/2G/HSDPA/WLAN... is used to calculate the route.
If you leave the route during navigation, the route will be recalculated. this also uses the internet connection.
A 100km long stretch takes about 50kb traffic.
I'm also a little concerned about the amount of data used.
As shown in the video, it is also able to use a 3D-map (used during night ect), is this map downloaded dynamically, or do you purchase a certain map (like western Europe)?
If possible I would like to buy a map once and for all, in order to save on data.

[APP][ROOT] Sqlite Vacuum Cleaner

Hey Guys.
I've just scribbled up this app for clearing up some unused space on your data partition. This is done by "Vacuuming" you sqlite databases.
This process recreates the archive, and removes all the unused (reserved) space from the databases. If entries are oftenly deleted these spaces can become quite big. And that adds up over many databases.
So if you want to try it out it is attached to this post. Please leave some feedback, and consider donating if you like the app. It'll help me get away from my craptop (Crappy Laptop).
Also, if we have any artists out there feel free to give your try on an icon for the app.
NEW VERSION UP:
Rewrote app (Hopefully for the better)
Now shows how much space was cleaned
-- Kiljacken
Reserve second post, and also a little bump. Hope you don't mind
It says there It would take awhile, but it only took just a couple of second. Is it supposed to work this way?
What an interesting app. I've tested, and it took a few mins to "do its thing".
It does what you said... good job!

Keeps Crashing on Motorola Atrix
Thanks for the APPS.
While scanning the apps keeps crashing for me. I have a rooted Motorola Atrix running Cherry-Pi Rom.
Thanks.
Trying it now Thanx for developing!
The end result is that we get more space left on the internal space? No speed bumps?
Tried it out and looks like I gained 6MB I did a full Titanium backup beforehand just in case. Nice job! Stick an icon on this puppy and get it on the market!
Edit: One recommendation: If possible, show how much space was gained after the process is complete.
holy ****, i gained at least 10mb!
thank you
thx for sharing work perfectly
Brilliant! Definately will be watching the progress on this one.
good share mate
Ran the app. It took about 30 secs and didn't specify anything about how many MB is cleaned. Does that mean there was nothing to clean?

The app does not display the MB cleaned / gained at this time. I suggested that feature. You just have to check the space before and after for now.
Great also on my device about 10 MB more after cleaning.

I second that suggestion, it would make the tool even better.
More suggestions:
1. Maybe you can add a top 3 list of the biggest offenders?
2. Add the ability to schedule a clean. For example, I would like to have this run every day at 5AM.
the amount of space added in a day means you probably wouldnt need to run it every day
this app is a great concept though, much easier than manually vacuuming, ive saved ~3mb from my mmssms.db alone (when i manually vacuumed it), having an app to do this automatically is a great idea

[APP][3.2+][FREE] Blox Backup. Unlimited storage. Cloud

Right since last year i haven't been developing any apps due to both my other apps just failing and because i now actually have a job but there's things i always wanted to do in terms of Android apps and an app like this was definitely one of them.
so about the app, like the title says it's a cloud backup app, which i have made for backing up images to the cloud, it's also got unlimited storage and thankfully is secure enough for other people to use.
It's not %100 complete but apps never are so this app will hopefully be supported a lot lot more than my other apps so if there's features you'd like but the app doesn't have then let me know and i'll try my best to add it.
Here's the Gplay description:
Blox Backup is an easy to use image cloud backup app with unlimited storage which means you can backup any image of any size for free with no worrying about limited storage or losing any of your favourite photo's.
I have made Blox Backup easy to use with a clean and simple layout to ensure you can use the app without issue.
It also has these simple features:
Ability to sign up to your own personal account
Unlimited storage
Easy to use interface
A clean and simple grid gallery
The ability to download your photo's back
You can also delete the images at any time!
So why not choose Blox Backup as your next solution to securing your favourite photo's!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplistic.bloxbackup
So yeah, if you like it then please let me know as i have a good feeling about this app!
Thanks for reading
What method are you using to secure the photos?
Also, when I try to select a photo to upload, it just force closes. So the app is unusable right now.

I'm currently trying to resolve the problem
Thanks for the quick reply.
Unfortunately i have had to temporarily un publish the app due to problems.
Right i give up, I've tried every single "solution" but absolutely nothing works, so i have no idea what's happened but it won't work so this app, unless someone can actually fix it, is going to off the play store
Okay, I'm feeling very very stupid right now, it turns out i forgot i deleted the imageview from the layout but made a rookie mistake and left the code. I'm such a twat. It will be back on the play store soon!
It's back on the play store now and this time it'll actually work

How are you finding the app now you can actually upload?
The app looks great and I love the simpleness of it.
There is one feature that I suggest you add though. Can you make it so that we can select multiple pictures to upload at once? It is a pain to only be able to do one at a time.
Other then that, I love it!

Where is the server at? How do i make sure that security is good enough and nobody but me got access to my photos?

+1, what he said.
The only other app I know that is technically "unlimited storage" is Shoebox. It basically shrinks your image to a lower resolution so that their server/SAN/NAS doesn't fill out quickly. There's no way "unlimited storage" is a free thing just like that, there's gotta be tradeoffs or compromises somehow and someone's gotta pay for hosting the storage. Please explain how all of this will be addressed, otherwise for all we know we could be upload our private/personal photos to your server for you to enjoy.

+1. Wanna know where, what cryption, and so on for this app. If it is stored in USA, it's kinda out of the question to use this app.
Well according to Quickblox it's unlimited and i had a look because i thought there might have been some catch but the only thing it really says is that it's on a shared cloud storage as I'm only on the basic free package. As far as i know it's safe as long as i don't give any details away and as long as i use my own api key, secret code and auth key, rather than a public test one.
If i'm wrong and using shared storage isn't safe or could harm any of you then please let me know because i want this to be genuine app but if it'll cause problems i may as well delete it and not bother with it.
Again though, as far as i know it's safe and is indeed unlimited unless i paid for the top package which i definitely can't afford
I like it very much so far. Thank you

[APP] Countdowns+

Is your life a succession of repetitive tasks that run one after another and you fear forgetting one?
Do you have to make a cooking recipe and you're sick of having to generate a countdown in your clock app every time you start one of the subtasks?
I make my own bread at home and the first kneading is a task that lasts about 80 minutes: "knead for 5 minutes, wait 20 minutes for the time to act and the dough to take consistency and repeat up to 4 times"...
It is a very repetitive task and many times it has happened to me that I forgot to program the next timer.
To facilitate that kind of tasks and not forgetting me again, I decided to develop Countdown + and today I put it at your disposal...
With Countdown+ you can create all the countdowns you want and assign each of them an begin text, a done text, a runtime and an order of execution, so that they all run in sequence ...
In addition, from the task bar you can pause a countdown, assign more time and much more!
Please, report issues and request for additions here.
Thanks

Appreciate your comment, but a bit useless if it does not include any improvement proposal or does not indicate any specific issue

I'm really a bit hallucinated, or rather sore.
After the review of XDA the app has been downloaded less than 200 times, which does not surprise me because it is not the type of app that most XDA users love, but the fact is that I received 5 ratings, 3 of them from 1 star apparently for privacy concerns.
Is it that nobody stops to think about the hours that must be dedicated to the development of an application?
Is it that nobody stops to think that the laws forces to indicate the use made of the data before the first use and that it is precisely the apps that are not indicating it by those that act badly?
Is it that nobody stops to think that sometimes generic statements are made but that it is not possible to access contacts, calendar, calls, etc. if explicit permission is not asked for it?
Does anyone really think?
Sorry for the roll, but it's all very frustrating!
This app is exactly what I've needed in my hectic life!
I've tried other apps only to find myself using them here and there. But this one is spot on!
I left a solid review on the Play Store for you mate!
Great job!
Cheers
