Blue Hunter (Android)
Hello and welcome to the development thread.
Here you can get an imagination of this project.
Introduction / Description
As you might know, Blue Hunter will be the follow-up of the Scan Most Bluetooth Devices game. The reasons for the complete restart of the same intent are those:
- Scan Most Bluetooth Devices was started up in 2010. At this time I had nothing to do with Java. I was a complete newbie. Therefore the code for the complete base was, to put it simply, ****. But I built on this base further and further. After some time I realized, that this can't be rescued anymore.
- The complete intern handling of things wasn't that, what I imagined.
- Some new features I wanted to get implemented were really not fitting into the game structure.
- And of course I wanted to do some new.
For those of you, who didn't know about Scan Most Bluetooth Devices, here is a short description of that, what the game should look like in the future.
Blue Hunter is a level-up game, in which you have to search for Bluetooth devices in range. Each unique device, that you'll find will give you some EXP. While gaining more an more EXP, you will, of couse, get into the next level. For each level-up you will unlock specific small game features, that will make it more comfortable to play. That's not all. You will have the chance to decide, if you also want to play against the others, who play this game, too. For that there will be the Leaderboard. Later you will also be able to add friends, make a player vs. player game, establish your own clan, etc. Achievements will also be integrated.
Changelog

Permissions
This game uses some Android Permissions. Here I want to explain, for what these Permissions are used:
- android.permission.BLUETOOTH - Is used to receive the state of Bluetooth and to start the discovery of Bluetooth devices.
- android.permission.BLUETOOTH_ADMIN - Is used to turn Bluetooth on, when necessary.
- android.permission.INTERNET - Is used to connect to the internet, to get the game synchronized with the game servers.
- android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE - Is used to determinate internet connectivity change.
- android.permission.VIBRATE - Is used to notify the user about a new found device by vibration.
- android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Is only used for debug purposes.
- android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED - Used for the Update Service, which runs in the background and checks if there is a new update.
- android.permission.WAKE_LOCK - This is also for the Update Service.
Compatibility
As this game is still in a very early development stage (pre-beta), this game can only be installed on devices with Android ICS (4.*) and above.
Translations
Like in Scan Most Bluetooth Devices I depend on the community for getting translations.
At this point I want to ask you, if you think you can translate the game into your language. If this is the case I really would like to send you to the strings.xml file. There you'll find all strings, that can be translated. Later I will integrate a small platform for translators, which will make them lifes easier. Much easier ! But also this takes time.
Included Translations:
- English
- Dutch (Marc.)
- Czech (Scorpio-cz)

Thank you ! (Of course I will think about a worthy compensation for your work !)
Privacy
Here I want to explain to you, what private information located on your device and got from other devices through Bluetooth is used by this game. This list contains and explains ALL gathered information from the game, you might worry about.
- Serial Number (S/N) - The game uses the serial number of your device, to determinate the installation of the game and to identify the unique game installation. The purpose of the use is, if you reset your Android to factory and after that install the game, it can automatically drag over the application data from the server, without user interaction.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- Version Code - This is the internal version code of the game. It is used to check, if a new nightly version is available.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- User Name - This is the name you use for the game. It is used to give you personalization possibilities. It's also showed in the leaderboard.
This information is sent to the game server and stored in a database.
- Remote MAC Address - This is the MAC Address of devices which you will found. It is used to determinate the manufacturer of the device and to give you specific expierence values for each manufacturer. (Some devices are more rare than others.)
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Remote Device RSSI - This is the Received Signal Strength Indication. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Remote Device Name - This is the name of the remote Bluetooth device. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
- Local Time - This is the time, that is saved, when you find a new device. This is used to display as information to you.
This information is ONLY sent to the game server, when you are syncing your data with the game server.
Note: All the information gathered by the game from your device or other devices is not associated with any other data or information. It will not be used for ad personalization or other things. It is not given to 3rd party companies or persons. This information is private and is only gathered to guarantee an optimal game experience. Your information is used to create statistics for the game itself.

Not sure that mapping people Bluetooth names on phones is a good idea even if its just a game. Seems to similar to what Google did with WiFi.

I can understand, that many people like you think very sceptical when it comes to terms of privacy and use of private information by third parties in an application, that can collect a mass of information. I'm aware of the current mindset of people and therefore privacy is a big term I'm mindful of.
That's why I've written the privacy section in the first post that extensive. Of course the list in this section will be updated, if new information is used in the current available nightly.
And that with Google & WiFi. If a big company had the information based on the Bluetooth devices, what would it be useful for ? I mean a Bluetooth device is in very most cases, unlike WiFi hotspots, in a continually movement. The only information, that a Bluetooth device automatically can offer passively and when it is in it's discoverable state is it's mac address, the specific name the user has set, the signal strength(RSSI) and the UUIDs (what this Bluetooth device offers for features). A combination of this information would be mostly useless for a company, even if it is connected with the specific location. The only case in which it could be "useful" would be to connect each different locations, when finding this specific device. But this thought is far-fetched and would be in a very huge conflict with my privacy perception. It would never be implemented in the game. And now to refer to the privacy section, I won't make any information public. The intent of this game is to level up by finding devices, not to gather information.
I hope this gave you a short explanation of my perception on this.
Greetings !
Sorry, about the double post.
In the newest nightly there is the possibility to get informed, whether a new nightly is already available. In addition to that, you can decide, whether the game checks this at start or not.
Because of this, there is one new thing in the privacy list. It's the 'Version Code'. For further information please read the first post. Thank you !
The next thing, that will be integrated is the "core". It's the complete Bluetooth device discovery. Eventually without saving, just discovery. We'll see.
Greetings !
As the game makes good progress and heads for the 0.2 alpha, I updated the Privacy list recently. The core functions are now implemented and I think now I need some volunteers to test the whole thing.
Here some screenshots:
In the third screenshot you can see, that the manufacturer of the devices are recognized based on the mac address.
My please to you is:
Can you report any devices that are declared as Unknown and you know the manufacturer ? That would be very helpful, because then I can set a specific experience-value for these manufacturers. Thanks alot !
Have fun hunting !
You just replied when I wanted to say some things about this game
First of all, it's coming pretty good again, but there are a few things missing ( What makes it nicer for me )
- A automatic update, for example you get a notification of a update is available. Press the notification to update to the newest nightly.
- A vibrate function when a device is found.
- The ranking board.
- The time you find a device added at the place of a discovery ( just add a rule ).
- An ongoing notification so you know it's running in the background.
I tested it today a lot and I think the features I said should be implented.
Bugs:
- When you open the game and press no for bleutooth then do the slider to ON and say again no for bluetooth the slider will stay at ON and it should be at OFF.
- The menu button ( the 3 dots ) is from the slider to the end of the screen clickable. Maybe this should only be a square at the right side of the screen?
- Animations are slow ( Even on a Galaxy Nexus with 4.1 ), they stutter, I mean the user Information. And also when you go into settings and touch information for example.
- If you go to found devices and touch the search button the settings button and the X of the search field are on top of each other.
And on what is the amount of XP based?
Also 2 MAC adresses with manufactures:
40:2C:F4 HP (laptop)
70:F1:A1 Dell Wireless 370 Bluetooth Mini-card
I think you don't need any more numbers of the mac adresses?
Thanks for giving a update on this.
Can we carry over scores from Scan Most Bluetooth Devices?
@Bunglechunk:
Yes, there will be an import function to use, so you can carry over your score.
As I'm not able to use my own workstation, you won't receive any updates, like some of you may noticed. But that doesn't mean, that there wasn't any progress. I could add some more features and now I'm working on some help pages for users, that may not know some features. You will receive a nightly update as fast as possible.
Greetings!
After long time of silence in this thread, I want to notify you few users of Blue Hunter, that I've updated the first post, especially the Privacy section. This applies to all new nightly versions, that are currently out there.
For more information on the changes, please be sure to look into the changelog.
As for general I can say, the development goes and goes. It feels much more professional as it was when developing for Scan Most Bluetooth devices (which interestingly got much downloads in the past from Google Play).
Also I appreciate if you would take the time to use the Bug Tracking System to report your bugs, you noticied.
Thank you for your support!
Greetings!
Re: [GAME] Blue Hunter [IN_DEV][0.2PRE_ALPHA]
If you send the strings that need to be translated please do... I didn't know that my translation was outdated... And the auto-check for updates doesn't work anymore, thanks for developing again
Edit: I had instant FC's so I set my pass, and did the 'rebuild local database', I think I backed up my score by logging in, now my score is gone :'( Is it possible to retrieve my score? Because I did login.
Hey Guys,
I wanted to notify you, that Blue Hunter has reached Alpha state. Until now there is a support version available on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maksl5.bl_hunt_sup.
This will help, keep me motivated to make something really great out of this project, so be sure to check it out.
Blue Hunter now has achievements, which will let you get a permanent boost of EXP, when finding a new device. Also here be sure to check that out! I updated the first post on this thread. There you can find the information.
Now I will focus on the social aspects of the game. Like I said, I want, that you can make 1vs1 games against other players in a specific time period. This also applies to clans, that you can lead or enter. You will have the chance to get friends and write them messages or to boast with your statistics. This is where I wanna have this game and I will concentrate on that for now.
Until this, I really have to ask that stupid question again. Do you have time to translate? Write me a PM. I'm very thankful for that.
Greetings, have a nice day!
Thanks for updating the app again! It's fun to play it now because you can achieve something. For the translation, please send the untranslated strings by PM to me

Hey MaksI5!
Nice that you are still on this project!
I can do the translation into Swedish and proof read English if needed (I will look into it). How do you want the translation? Just plain translation by editing the strings.xml file on Github? How do you want me to handle Swedish letters å,ä,ö?
@Marc. & NRK77:
Thank you for the time! You can find it here: https://github.com/Maksl5/blue-hunter/blob/master/res/values/strings.xml. Again this file is mostly updated with new strings on each version increment. You just have to send me the translated strings back via PM here or mail, what you like most. Specific characters are no problem. You can use them in your translation. I will check it and then handle it, like Android needs.
Thank you again!

No problem at all! I like this game, hope there will be as many players as in SMBD.
I've begun the translation, it will take a week or two to complete.
One error you might look into: I have the automatic check for updates option on. Every time I start the app, it says there's a new version. It says my build is 1143 and 1144 is available. If I download 1144 and install it, the app still tells me the same as before: I currently have 1143 and 1144 is available.
One other problem I'll write in a PM.
Maksi5, are you still around? Ich hoffe dass du nicht in dem deutsche Wald verloren ist.
[Written by my thumbs using Taptalk 4.]
So guys, after some delay, I'm starting to develop further. Sorry for that, but I had many things to do for a while.
I just could integrate a new small feature. I don't talk about much, 'cause pictures say more then words:
Screenshot (Dropbox)
The whole social aspects thing... I did not touch it. But I will. Be sure.
@Snah:
This is a bug that automatically occurs, when I'm too dumb to compare and check the version numbers of the apk and the actual AndroidManifest.xml. Don't worry about it, it fixes itself in the next nightly.
BTW: What do you think about saving geo coordinates when finding a device to show them on a map at a later time?

Hey all,
pypmin is a web monitoring application for administrators, it helps you keep track of the availability and response time of your website applications on the go using your phones internet connection.
You simply build a list of websites and pypmin will poll them in the background. When a website is unreachable pypmin alerts you with the http status code, you can also opt in to receive alerts whenever the content of the website changes.
You can configure the poll interval, and also the threshold of consecutive failures before an alert is made, in order to account for occasional problems with your phones connectivity.
I made this app a few weeks ago as a private tool for monitoring the websites that I host, I figured it was ready to dish out to people. Please tell me what you think, if you end up using it and want new features then please let me know.
You can find the app at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.creepy.pyp
Edit: New features including content change alerts have been added to version 1.0.6, there is now also a pro version with extras on the play store. Some advanced settings have been made pro exclusive, so if you rely on those settings you'll have to stick with 1.0.5, which will remain attached to this thread.
For those interested, I've added an APK file.
Has anyone had a chance to try this out? I'd be interested to know of any opinions/issues you've come across. So far I've only managed to test it on the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 5 and Galaxy Note.

Will test a bit later today, could be very useful. Maybe add a feature that counts how many visitors / hits your page as had that day?

Funnily enough I'm actually in the process of making a version of this for myself. Stats such as visitor counts and server CPU and memory usage would have to come via the server itself, or an analytics platform, so to add this in I'd have to dish out some scripts and a tutorial for setting this up on your own server.
I'm definitely willing to do that as an open source project, since I'm making it anyway, but I'll want some time to finish it and test it thoroughly. If anyone else is interested in this then let me know which analytics platform you use, if any, and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for making this app..:good:
Awesome little app :thumbup:
One suggestion, if the option of persistent mode was available I/we could set the polling time to hourly and we would be notified if issues occurred.

Would you be able to add a feature where it tells you if changes have been made/site was updated since the last poll?
For example, I randomly check http://desipro.de/ddwrt/K3-AC/ for new builds of firmware (DDWRT) for my router. This app is very light weight and it would be great if it would respond back and say "Hey, the site I've been randomly checking for you to make sure it's up has also been updated with new content."
This would be valuable to myself and I am willing to throw you 5 bucks if you can add it.
Thanks!
Very helpful, thx for this app.

For example, I am admin on 2 wordpress-homepages with low traffic hosted on cheap web-hotels. Those web-hotel-provideres run badly designed robots, that looks for suspicius code on all their sites, and changes my .htaccess if the robot thinks, it has found something (without warning me).
This feature could help find a changed .htaccess file faster than I can do it today.

Adding an option to run nrpe/nagios checks remotely on Windows boxes would be most useful. I monitor with nagios, and use nrpe for all of windows vm's. Health, mem, cpu, etc. Open source so can likely make use of nrpe in this handy little app.

Hey all! I've just uploaded pypmin version 1.0.6 to this thread as well as the play store.
Version 1.0.6 has the following extras:
- Optional alerts for content changes (configured per website)
- Export your pyp items (for importing into the new pro version)
I have also released pypmin pro to the play store. It's a paid version that has a new benchmarking utility for testing the performance of your server. Some of the advanced settings in 1.0.5 have been made exclusive to the pro version, so if you rely on those settings you might want to stick to version 1.0.5 if you're unwilling to buy the pro version.
I'm currently working on having server side statistics integrated into pypmin, but I haven't got a full plan for this yet so I can't say if or when it will be ready. Please let me know if there are any extra features you'd like and thanks for giving pypmin a try!
Hey all, pypmin was recently updated to version 1.1.2, this adds the ability to specify the exact response code expected for each individual website. This allows you to monitor websites where a '200 OK' response is not actually expected.
For example, you could be monitoring a website that requires authentication, and so you would specify the code 401 to be expected. With that option set pypmin will not only alert you when an error is returned, but also when a 200 response is recieved which indicates that you have accidentally opened up the site to unauthorized clients.
Enjoy.
What's in Town is a new app that I have been working on for a little while now.
The apps aim is to provide a quick and easy to use interface to find out much more about your local area/town, as well as provide a great tourist information app.
Build from the ground up around material design practices I feel the app really does provide a clean and easy to use interface far better than other apps like it.
Currently the first stable release of the app has now been pushed to play store while we build up our database of locations, we are starting with historic locations as very few apps seem to have any details on local historic items. But we will be expanding into hotels, bars, shops and other locations of importance.
We are also focusing on Great Britten but hope to expand into other country's as well!
I have come to XDA with the app to general raise awareness but also get peoples ideas about the app and what they think might work well, or any features improvements or bugs etc!
Thanks

App updated to 1.2
The newest update to the What’s in Town app has just hit the Android play store, grab it HERE now!
This is quite a large update and includes some great new features below:
Filter by distance/town
Whats in Town version 1.2 now allows you to easily filter locations displayed in more ways than ever. In past versions you where able to filter by location type by clicking on each of the location types in the side menu to toggle them.
However with the latest update you are now also able to filter by distance (in miles) from your current location. Perfect for if you are looking for a day out near by, or need to limit the distance you can travel to a location
You can also filter by town, this allows you to only display the locations in a certain town, great if your planning a trip to another town and want to know whats about in that town only.
Search
Another great feature now allows you to search through our database for the locations your interested in, once you have found the location you want simply click it and the map shall show you its location and info.
The new Trycorder 5.2.3 is in the download section on top of this page
Now with Trycorder5, The Trycorder is connecting with a central server who receive every orders from planetary trycorders. Those orders are logged, and executed on the server. (Some Text-To-Voice system here translate your action into an audible message on the bridge (the development computer area))
The Main Intelligence of the central server can respond to you.
Download : http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15530#downloads
Screenshots : http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15530#screenshots
Manual : https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=22505
For the non-trekkies, a Trycorder is a portable measuring tool, communication tool, and remote-control tool for your Starship.
This is an itch I had to scratch for a long time.
I wanted a full fledged trycorder without announcements, free as a beer, and free public code.
I did'nt found what i was searching for, so I made one.
The wish to have a full trycorder was so strong, I had to Learn Java, Learn Android-Studio, Learn Android Programming, starting with a classic "Hello World!" program, Learn Activities, Fragments, Permissions, and the rest, and all of this Before I started a single line of my project.
After 3 long and painful months, I finally started the project, and drived it to a version 1.0, where I decided to share my fun with others.
With this Trycorder, You can do the following:
- Look, feel, and sound like the federation trycorder.
- Fits in your pocket, so you can beam out on demand.
- Scan your environment, temperature, pressure, light, magnetic, gravity, orientation,...
- Control the device by voice-command. (Press top left, and say "computer fire" or "computer beam me up" for example)
- Take pictures and recordings from your findings on new planets.
- Remote control your own starship, fire, communications, shields, transporter, viewer, ...
(You have to provide the starship, and make sure it is on the wifi router that you use).
- Consult logs of operations. View the pictures and recordings you got back from your away mission.
- View Magnetic, Orientation, Gravity, Temperature sensors values drawn in the sensor area.
- View Phaser, Torpedo, Transporter operation in your sensor screen.
- View Shields, Communication Waveform, Tractor Beam sensor animation on your sensor screen.
- The application is usable in space, provided your phone is space-proof, and you wear a space-suit.
- The application can be adapted easily for different starships remote protocols.
- For captains only: Crew Information and Evaluation module. (to be found under logs/crew) (Contacts access)
- The communication module is real and functionnal between all trycorders on the planet and in orbit as long you are connected to the public internet.
- And many more to come ...
Here it is.
Download the APK, and install from here in the Downloads section (on top of this page).
or Download the sources on github and have fun with android studio (Download link below).
Dont forget to come back here and give me your advice, comments, appreciations or depreciations as well.
And if you have some ideas to propose, or code to submit, i would be glad to add it to the main trycorder application.
Tested on:
Samsung Galaxy Nexus (GT-I9250): CyanogenMod 6.0.1, CyanogenMod 5.1.1
Motorola Moto-G (XT-1032): CyanogenMod 6.0.1, CyanogenMod 4.4.4
Samsung Ace-II (GT-S7560M): CyanogenMod 4.4.4
LG P705g: Stock 4.0.3 (unrooted plain stock)
Tablet Datawind 7Ci, Android-4.1
Please tell me of your success so i can add to the list of tested phones.
Remember: Every button has a function, and every surface is used and clickable. some functions may not be obvious, like speech recognition that you activate by clicking in the top left corner in the curve. (just try "fire" , "beam me up", "and others you think of..." , or read the source code for a complete list of words who trigger actions.)
The trycorder contains more than 40 operating buttons, 9 animations, dozens of sounds, around 8 sensors, speech recognition and voice interaction, and a new captains-only crew evaluation and information module, now, at version 1.9.1
Have FUN !!!
For those who have a Force-Close on first opening, make sure your android device is setup this way.
Have Google Text-to-Speech installed and running in default us-english (and more if you need)
Have Google voice recognition active for us-english (and more if you need)
Have Google map installed (optionnal but nice to locate yourself on the current planet)
Have Location service Enabled (GPS)
Have Wifi operationnal (for info about your internet connection in the info panel, and location service)
Allow all five permissions that the application ask for.
For those who write android code too, this trycorder is made of hundreds of differents examples
in the differents forums i follow. This is a good example of over-populated buttons groups, with a lot of
examples applications all mixed together, trying to look like to a useful tool.
This fantastic tool, helped me learn everything (hum! almost) in android where I had an itch for.
Now people on XDA have a fantastic toy, to play with, learn in, and impress friends.

Trycorder functions
Here is what this Trycorder can do.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Look, feel and sound like a real one.
Use your phone sensors to scan your environment.
Use your camera to detect alien lifeforms.
Respond to voice commands.
Control almost fully every operations of your orbiting starship, by remote control.
You can beam up to your ship autonomously, (you have to provide the starship).
And a lot of other scientific functions.
In fact, you can fly around the galaxy with it, and use it on every planet you wish,
provided that this planet is part of the federation, and have a GPS satellite system.
If your phone is Space-Proof(tm) , you can even use it in space outside the starship
(use of a Space-Suit is recommended for use in space)

Thank you for that. Just an FYI... When using the XDA mobile app, the download section doesn't show up. At least for me anyway. Now that I am on a PC, I see the download section and the link. Downloading now
For those who liked this trycorder, I uploaded a version 1.1 today.

this application need a lot of permissions, on MM you have to set the permissions yourself
go to:
Settings -> Apps -> Trycorder -> Permissions
and then give all permission requested
I wish i could find a way to set it automatically,
with KitKat and Lolipop the problem do not happen

The version 1.7 is out.
Its supposed to solve all Force-Close. (mainly due to speech recognition)
Let me know of your success or bugs.
Wow! the 1.8 version is out. I will take a pause before the version 1.9.0.
mainly this version contains no specific changes from 1.7, and is declared stable enough for mass production.
I am working now on a brand new extension to the trycorder, (for captains only), and will keep it a secret for now.

Where is the link? I'm really interested in this one.
Very interesting. it's a pity that you didn't posted the link on that. I'd like to rest on weekends watching some series) And now I am working on soft employee monitoring system that helps to be productive at work. It identify which applications employees use, minimize the time spent on the internet and social media, improve attendance, or reduce the costs of rarely used licenses is to use computer monitoring software.
