This is fantastic and really useful. I thought there would have been a discussion thread about this? I just wanted say thanks and also ask why the icons went from normal size in v1.3.9 to super magnified in v1.4, will there be a way to change this? Also I can't seem to navigate the new app information options very well, there are no highlight changes in the menu when you move up and down. The screenshot looks very different

Honestly, I don't remember what the size of the icons were in version 1.3.9
If there's a popular request I could add an option to choose the size.
Can you add a screenshot with how the context menu looks in your device? What version of Android TV are you using?

@easyjoin after some more testing I found that App Launcher v1.4 works fine and displays the same as your screenshot.
There seems to be a glitch that occurs when launching the app after install, confirmed on multiple devices with both versions, which I had mistaken as "super magnified" icon changes in the v1.4 update.

This screenshot shows the version of the app for phones and tablets. It seems that the Play store instead of using the Android TV activity when opening the app, as it should have done, uses the one for phones and tablets.
Good to know even if I couldn't fix it since it's a Google problem.

Well that makes sense then, and I found after testing that it's not an issue once you re-launch it.
Thanks again for such a great app !!!

Now that it's clear what the problem is, I can try to find a workaround.
Fun fact: there is a one star review on Play store of someone who complained about the size of the icons. If he had contacted me, via email or here, as you did, giving me the chance to get more information about it I could have tried to find a solution long ago. Unfortunately, many people don't know that the Play Store, as it is structured, can't be used to analyze bugs and the best thing is, after leaving the review, to contact the developer by email.

TaskOS, a powerfull task manager.

VIDEO HERE
NEW COOL VIDEO HERE. Click this link.
Hi there, i just want to have feedback on my TaskOS app.
This application show to the users all the apps he opened and never closed. ( leave applications with HOME key and it will appear. Leave with back key and won't appear.)
The user can scroll between all these apps and launch one by clicking on it or kill it by dragging to the top ( like Palm PRE)
That's a beta, but all the mains features are there.
What do you think of it.
PS: i am looking for ROM developpers that would be able to launch it by long click on the "home" button or trackball/other.
Features
* customizable icon size
* wave effect ( i think i'll remove it)
* confirm killing app or not
* notification to launch easily ( looking for people who know ho to integrate this with long press on home button - trackball)
* more to come...
Will come
* theming the bar
* ignore apps by moving icon to the bottom
Screenshots:
Looks nice but why doesn't it show as many apps as say taskiller?
I'm using a Nexus One btw
For what version of Android is this? Can I run this on my 1.5 device with Sense?

This version is Android 2.1 on my hero. But yes of course, you can use it on a 1,5 device with sense!
nice thought, i like it!
I'm running 1.6 stock and unfortunately it doesn't show up when
i leave any app with home-key, but i find the idea of holding
home-key pressed in order to show up really nice!
...and yeah, i stopped using *press-here-to-kill-all-tasks*
I kinda like it
some suggestions:
- gestures (like from down to up to open it)
- Lock the slide up feature while scrolling
- Maybe previews of apps (would require lots of mem somehow)?
- click anywhere other than the switcher to close the switcher
- don't display apps twice
BTW: what about making an app launcher like the wave launcher from webOS? shouldnt be too hard and very useful
I like the idea of a Pre app launcher, but I want to say something related to memory may bog things down a little bit.

alright. Nevermind the thumbnails by gestures i mean like a system one so you drag up from the bottom of the screen to open taskOS but i guess that isn't possible unfortunately... maybe use a longpress menu to open it? would be great if a different solution was possible to open the switcher up
see news here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5404622#post5404622 to launch with Home key, but i guess i won't have answers.
I think Google should allow users to make custom shortcuts by clicking on buttons!
Ignore function does not work on some screen sizes!!!!
I'll have a look thursday! Be patient
Could you possible add a memory counter at like the corner somewhere to show how much free ram we have? Also, any way to make this look/work a bit more like the WebOS cards if possible?
As for resolution I notice you have a Hero, so I take it you made the res for Hero(my Eris has the same res as the Hero)?

This isn't entirely true.
Some apps need to be force killed.
Android takes care of this only when the situation is really dire.
Why waste the valuable RAM?
Let's say you use App "X" once a day, but it's a resource (memory + cpu) hungry app, like Maps and derivatives.
Now, this is an app which will figure in the active list, but some of them like remaining in the background. Have 5 of those, and your system will work at a crawl.
Now try killing that app. You can really feel the difference, especially if you're using 7201A based handsets (that's 528Mhz).
Take a look at com.eolwral.osmonitor.
IMO, the best task manager around. And it's free (as well as ad-free).
why not mail the author and share some ideas?
You do have a innovative approach to task management (ui-wise).
i don't know if anyone has the same problems, but since last update i keep getting force closes when trying to kill an app!
edit: dis- and reenabling kill popup fixed the problem. weird.

Thank for the feedback!
You are the only one people that I heard having this problem... Really strange but i am glad that Taskos work again!
Next time, send me the logcat so i will be able to correct the bug!
Yeah, it would be nice if we could use TaskOS by holding home... The normal Android switcher is so useless.
very nice app ... will be essential if you find a way to use as task switcher (longpress home)
could you maybe add the option to hide statusbar icon?
also kinetic scrolling would be very welcome
Inertia in scrolling: seem to be so hard to implement.... You will have to wait.
Long press home: Developpers don't have access to this! I will investigate with Custom ROM developers. Imagine all apps can acces home button and you press it!
Ability to remove statusbar icon: will be done in next update.
I think that I left a bug in previous update. Nobody told me and i just corrected this evening. Sorry for the inconveniance!

So does this software now have the ability to load via the home button?

[REQ] Lock Screen App

The power button on my N1 has been giving me fits, and given the number of people I've read about with "dead" power buttons, I think mine is going out so I'm trying to preserve it as long as possible.
I enabled trackball wake (using CM6) which takes care of 1/2 the equation, but I need a good lockscreen app (just something to make the phone go to sleep). I found one in the market called Lock Screen Enabler, but it's not a "true" lockscreen app and it's very buggy, causing all sorts of problems for me.
I've been a web developer for 8 years and recently got into Android development (which I hope to be doing full-time soon), so I thought I'd just code a quick app for personal use in 5 minutes.
The problem, however, is that the DEVICE_POWER permission is needed in order to call goToSleep() and from what I've read so far from other online posts, this permission is only granted to native system applications.
Since my phone is rooted, I even tried granting my application SU privileges, but that doesnt seem to work either.
So, my question boils down to how do I grant my application DEVICE_POWER permission? I figure if anyone out there knows the answer, it's going to be someone on XDA as this place is full of geniuses. Thanks in advance!!
UPDATE: I've attached the finished app. Made this for personal use but if anyone wants to use it they are welcome to. My only gripe about it right now is the "screen flicker" that happens when you launch it because it's trying to launch an app that immediately locks the screen and finishes itself. If I can figure out how to get the app to launch in a smaller window maybe I can minimize the size to reduce the screen flicker. But for now, this works and I can set it to launch when I click the clock on Fancy Widget, so I'm happy. Thanks again to everyone who offered answers to my questions. Just another reason why I love the Android development community!!

It seems that you'll need to add the application as a device administrator. There seems to be some decent information half way down this page under Device policy manager: Link.
I'd be interested in using this application as I can't change the icon of my previously mentioned widget.
Edit: More information here as well: Link.

I will probably still go ahead and create one. I like how with FancyWidget you can set it so clicking the clock will launch an app. Unfortunately it doesn't work with widgets, so I need an extra icon on my home screen just to lock it. If you have an icon you'd like me to use, feel free to share and I'll put it in
And thx for the info!!
I would be happy with any icon to be honest, I just don't like the lock screen widget one Good luck bud

Alright, I got it working, but there's one problem. It can't be uninstalled because it's currently a device admin. Same goes for that Lock Screen Widget I installed earlier.
Looking into a way to be able to uninstall, if one even exists....

Good call. Thx. However, I also came up with a work-around for ppl who are just as lazy as myself. There are 2 icons in the launcher. The first will lock the screen (once you enable the app as a device admin). The second will disable the app as a device admin, allowing you to uninstall at your will.
I really intended for this app to be for personal use, but if anyone wants it I'll put it up here for you to download. If you'd rather I remove the second launcher icon and just let you to disable it through Security settings, I will also do this (as really, I don't plan on uninstalling any time soon so this is fine for myself).
Thanks to everyone who helped out!!!

Great, works perfect on MIUI 0.9.30
Does the job perfectly! I especially like how it runs as an app so I can change the icon
You're a lifesaver, or should I say power button saver
Thanks so much.
I tried to develop something similar before but got stuck. Saved me some time!
Thanks for creating such useful app for my N1. My power bt is fine, but I would like to preserve it to powering up/down the phone.
BTW, I also downloaded Lock Screen Widget to test it out. Is it possible that you can make your app to shut off the screen smoother, like LSW? I like it you set it up as an app, which is super useful for me set up as a gesture swipe on my LauncherPro dock icons.
Thanks again and keep up your good work!
Thanks again, your app is really great. But could you add a option to map it to the search button (long press) please?
Thank you!

[APP] PerApp -- change a few per-app settings

Official release is in Google Play.
PerApp is a simple open source app that lets you set a few settings for individual apps. Specifically as of 1.03:
- orientation
- volume boost (Android 2.3+)
- screen timeout time
- CPU speed [root]
- font size
- input method [root]
I have a pre-release version here, with source code in the repository.
I wrote it because there is one app that I wanted to be able to lock the screen orientation for. I knew there is an app in the Market that does that, but I didn't like a recent review of it, so I wrote my own.
I am sure Tasker does all of this and more, but I prefer to use a simple, small and cheap app.
Only the CPU settings use root.
I posted 0.03 which should work better with the never show notification icon option.
Nice this is exactly what i searched changing the volume of one app.
i dowloadet the version PerApp003.apk start the program and after aktivating it and caling the programm again, my screen rests black and i get after +- 10sec the message: Unfortunately, PerApp has stopped.
any posibility to find a error log that can help to find the problem ?
the error coms on a Samsung Galaxy S 2 on 4.03
sorry for bad english

Yeah, install Android Log Collector, run Per App, and right after the crash go to Log Collector and email me (arpruss at gmail dot com) your log. I have yet to see private stuff in a log, but if you're really careful you can email the log to yourself first, look through it, and then forward it to me.

ok its done, hope you can find the problem
EDIT: Works great now on gs2 4.0.3 big thx to arpruss
ICS problem fixed, confirmed with user.
I recommend everyone switch to 0.04 as it does stuff The Right Way.
I posted 0.06 which improves an audio boost issue.
I just added:
- CPU min/max speed changing on a per app basis (needs root); you need to go to Menu | Settings to activate it, though.
- Jelly Bean support (needs root, as in JB one doesn't get the READ_LOGS permission without root; on ICS and below root is not needed).
Just put out 0.08, fixing bug in CPU speed adjust.

Great idea!
I made some UI improvements in 0.09. Now in the apps list it shows some info about how apps were customized. Moreover, if you edit defaults, you get an option to reset all apps to default in respect of one of the settings.
Great work!
I suggest separating apps that had their settings changed from the ones with the default settings or puting them on top for easy access...
A change log in the OP would be appreciated as well.
Thanks!
color me impressed. I've been using tasker to do such things but I'd like it in a seperate app, especially if I can export those settings later (apply them to other phones maybe?)

Does the volume boost work the other way around and can you use it on system apps? I'd really like to lower the volume of incoming facebook messages and the camera shutter since it doesn't seem to be affected by changing any sounds except for silent mode.
nice app

Great app. Any plans for releasing it in Play store?

[APP][2.2+] Smart Taskabr 2 - most convenient one hand optimized quick access launche

[Smart Taskbar V2]
Smart Taskbar is designed to make you use your phone one handed easily. All new V2 is even more one hand optimized. Launch any application instantly without leaving your current window. Swipe your finger or click the trigger icon anytime in any App to bring up Smart Taskbar panel for super fast app launching also works as app organizer, folder organizer, multi tasker, task killer, and shortcut manager. The App is carefully designed and implemented to make sure you can comfortable do most things with just one hand. If you are one hand operation freak and is always looking for something to use your phone easier with one hand, then Smart Taskbar 2 is the right thing for you. Although it is capable, but I still don't suggest you use my App in driving. :silly:
How is everyone saying about V1:
Showcased in XDA front page in 2010
Showcased in addictivetips front page in 2010
Showcased in howtogeek in 2011
Reviewed by lifehacker in 2012
[Some Background]
About three years ago, I introduced an app called Smart Taskbar which used a never been used technique called system overlay window to demonstrate the potential benefit of using top level window in Android Apps to create something that is always on top and always available first time. So thats why you see many many devs that use similar technique to make their Apps such as swipe pad, swapps, sidebar...etc. Many of you may not know its me who brought you the first app in this class in Android Market by the time because app Smart Taskbar V1 is not as famous as other similar apps. Probably due to lack of details or it is simply too engineering style.
During my development of V1 in 2010, I asked many friends around me to see how's their reaction with an always available, always displayed, tiny trigger button design thats is displayed all the time on screen to access a small launcher style window when pressed. All of them told me its obstructive and bad of user experience. 3 years has passed. Even Apple adopt the idea in their iOS5 called accessitive touch. I don't know did Apple engineers know about my App. But I am quite happy that my concept is accepted by Apple.
If you are interested to know more about my V1, you can refer to this XDA thread for more details:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/smart-taskbar-launch-any-app-in-2-steps/
So I decided to create a V2 to improve problems that I have in V1. I started the requirement and feature development as early as the beginning of 2012 and started real coding job in Jun 2012. Finally after about 6 months of hard coding, I released my first beta on PlayStore in March, 2013. After two more months of beta and debugging, I think its ready to announce the App to everyone on XDA today.
[Features]
☆One click in any window to access Smart Taskbar main panel without leaving your current window
☆10 speedy quick launch spots for 1 click App/Custom action launching
☆Organize Apps/Actions in groups
☆Organize Apps/Actions in folder
☆Task Switcher
☆Add unlimited number of widget to use (No more desktop space limit)
☆Gesture driven
☆Build custom action (aka shortcut) to do more
☆Do basic App management such as force stop or uninstall directly on screen
☆Sortable App list by filter of frequency, alpha numerical, or installation time
[New In V2]
☆Brand new one hand friendly design
☆All graphics now in HD quality
☆Runs different UI on Pad and Phone
☆Gesture driven
☆New folder design for you to create multi dimensional gropus
☆5 more quick launch spots
☆Sortable list
☆Free dragable trigger icon

Is possible to make this status bar starting only when I open google chorme?
And is possible to insert in the bar the typical button of a browser? (back, forward, favourite, setting, etc...).

I don't quite get you because isn't Chrome non full screen app?
For button control, it would require root for key simulation and I don't want to make ST to be a root App. So I'd suggest you try my key simulation App, Button Savior.

I need it becouse I have a Meizu MX2, tha has a own smartbar. But for many reason I had to use a customized rom that hide this smartbar, so I have chrome fullscreen without a bar (other browser has it, for example firefox, opera or safari in ios).
So, I tried you button savior, but is have to two problem for me, maybe you can help me to resolve:
1) I'd like it start when I open chrome and close when I close it. Maybe is possible to do this with tasker, is right?
2) When button savior start, I'd like to have it maximized (like a normal bar) I don't want to click on the arrow to make it apper.
Is possible to do all this?

I bought V2 as soon as I saw it -- been a happy user of V1 since early on.
One thing I've noticed -- alphabetical sorting of the apps doesn't actually seem to show them alphabetically for me. I can't figure out what order they're displayed in ... perhaps the name of the APK as opposed to the app name?
Also, as some have posted in the Play Store comments, the circular Quick Launch spots look nice but they're a little small on my HTC One and don't show the app very clearly.
Saw this yesterday and installed it. Bought it today. Incredible app. Samsung should give this a good look. Absolutely the best organizational app I have used.

an amazing app. Can't give any suggestion at all. But just found folder item limit of 5 is too low. Will u change it to more? I think from the size of folder container, 4x3 (12) should be not a problem. hope u can enlarge the limit.
how do I move the trigger button to the left side? as soon as I click on it, stb opened up.
also, how do I clear out the quick launch buttons?

You press and hold on it for about 0.5S. Then you should be able to move it. For clean up all quick spots, there is no such function yet, I will try to add it later.

A reply with what you think of the app, comments and/or questions are greatly appreciated!
Feedback is greatly appreciated
Really, anything at all...
Any device list on what needs root and what doesn't?
@AndTheBoys Not specifically since there are way to many devices. But the app will work on Android 4.0+, all rooted devices and for the not rooted devices the only way to find out is to try. However, if you managed to get another screenshot app working this app will probably also work.
Did you try it out? Let me know what you think of it.
More feedback is welcome!
I saw your nice app here now,
and I have to make a lot of screenshots bcs I make themes for my G-Note
so I just downloaded the app and tested it,
so far very cool,
but at once I miss a option (important for me),
the ability that the service stops itself after a time (maybe 10-20-30 sec or a minute)
would be cool if you could implement that
and I saw at playstore another screenshot app from you,
what's the difference
greetings

@hara74 Thanks for the feedback! Good idea to put a timer in it that will stop the service automatically. We'll add it probably in the next update! Till then, you can use Tasker or Locale to do it since Screenshot Easy has a plugin for those automation apps. Let me know whether that works till the update?
About our other screenshot app, that app has way more features and is way more complex. While Screenshot Easy was designed to have a nice interface and be really simple. So if you need more functionality have a look at the other one
More feedback is welcome! Thanks!
nice to hear that u will implement the timer :good:
no problem to close the service manually till you release ur update
I already tried Screenshot Ultimate yesterday, but the Easy Version has a nicer interface and has enough functions for me
only thing I miss also in Easy Version (Ultimate has it, I beleave), is to draw directly instead of using the roms drawer,
because I have to cross out a few numbers and names when I post screenshots of the themed contact or phone app
@hara74 Do you have Tasker or Locale by any change? That would make it even easier till the update
About your request for drawing inside the app, we specifically made the choice not to implement it since everyone already has an image editor in their roms and can install a custom other one if they want. And we want to keep it all really easy
More feedback is welcome! And if you downloaded and liked the app I would appreciate it if you could leave a review on Play. Or post it here
no,
no Tasker or Locale, but is OK till update
and also with standard drawer I can live
I will leave a feedback here and also at Playstore,
when I have worked more with ur app,
and have taken more screenshots

@hara74 That great to hear, hopefully you'll still like the app if you use it a bit more
And if someone else tried it, please let me know your thought here. Thanks!
Does anyone have problems with installing and/or using the app? We're looking at improving it for the next update release, so requests are welcome!
Is it possible to add a palm swipe as an action to take screenshot? Basically like Samsung TW..
Thanks!
@acedik That's actually a good idea, we'll look into it! In the mean time, does the app work ok?
Let me know!
Screenshot Easy is growing really fast! Let me know what you think of it so we can even improve it further
thanks
@mamaliii You're welcome
But more feedback is definitely appreciated
Hi mate,

sent from my G-Note
@hara74 Great to hear!
If anyone has feedback on the app let me know! Also, let me know how use the app (gaming screenshots, documents, etc).
We just released a new version on Play and I decided it would be good to post it here as well. Haven't posted much here.
Anything you would like to see inside the app? Or if you are using it let me know what you think of it! Thanks!
