Hi guys! Developer of Energy Ring here! I am looking for testers to calibrate Energy Ring for Galaxy S21+!
What would I consider an ideal tester:
#1 Have sufficient free time, say at least 30 minutes.
#2 Have a hell lot of patience, the calibration takes some time, might be frustrated in adjusting the sliders by pixels.
#3 Have another phone/camera to take a physical photo (not screenshot) of your phone.
If you meet the above requirements, please private message me your Telegram/Skype ID.

Hello!
This is a simple app i developed a while back, basically to be able to read in bed without turning the lights on and bothering other people.
When launched it will max the brightness of the phone, and by tapping the screen you can adjust the intensity of the light.
I find it very useful for reading, and over time i've got some user requests to add features, like sleep-timer, so you can fall asleep without draining your battery.
And now i'm posting it here, to hear what you think, and i'd be very happy to get some feedback and request for new features, so I can expand this little app.
Here's the link to the free app in the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pickle.ReadingLight
Thanks!
Pickle.
New Verision
By user comments request, added Brightness Lock to avoid unintentional taps while reading.
Hello everybody. Hopefully, I have something that some of you will find pretty handy. My app is a calculator for statistics (if you couldn't figure that out) that I think is the best-designed and easiest to use on the market so far (why else would I promote it?). It covers most basic statistics like mean, median, and mode and also many permutations and combinations (full list below).
I wish I could post some pictures or a direct link, but unfortunately I'm brand new. Hopefully, I don't get in trouble for this, but I'd like to at least make it easier for you, if you're interested:
/store/apps/details?id=me.nickpierson.StatsCalculator (3rd reply has full link. Thanks cyansmoker!)
Also, I've included the APK with this post. The app has no ads in it and the source code is open for viewing on Github (message me for link).
Here's the list of ALL the calculations that it can perform:
Size
Sum
Minimum
Maximum
Arithmetic Mean (average)
Geometric Mean
First Quartile
Median
Third Quartile
Interquartile Range
Mode
Range
Sample Standard Deviation
Population Standard Deviation
Sample Variance
Population Variance
Coefficient of Variance
Kurtosis
Skewness
Factorial
Subfactorial (or Derangements)
Permutation
Permutation with repetition allowed
Combination
Combination with repetition allowed
Indistinguishable Permutations
Pigeonhole
The app also contains plenty of handy features to make calculating statistics easier - like saving lists, and a custom built-in keypad. If you would like the full details, I encourage you to check it out in the play store ("Stats Calculator", blue Sigma picture, or search "Piersync"). If you would like a quick back-story, read ahead:
This is most certainly not my first android app, but it is by far my most successful one. I'm not a designer, but I did my best to make the UI as clean and useable as possible. Other devs out there are really setting the bar high, and functionality alone doesn't cut it anymore. I've never had an app reach over 500 users, so this is also the first time I'm recieving actual user feedback, and so, I highly appreciate any thoughts that you may have about the app. I'm also the sole developer if you haven't realized that by now. There is also a pro version of the app out there if you'd like some additional functionality.
Lastly, this is my first time making a post on XDA. Hopefully its a good one and I hope you enjoy my app!
Looks very promising, thank you.
No problem! I'm glad you like it.
If anyone has questions or feedback, please comment. I plan on checking this thread frequently.

Hi y'all, here what I have for you guys to have a try.
This app utilized the fundamental hardware features of a mobile phone, offer users an alternative way to diagnose, or understand them. If you’re just simply bored, this free app can kill some time for you.
It’s very easy to understand and use, with 11 mini games for diagnosis. What you need is to play, then get the report and have some fun.
List of featured diagnostic games:
Touchscreen - drag, drag, and drag, overcome obstacles, send the 'rabbit' out of the tunnel, if you succeed----I am pretty sure the touch function is fine, but if you fail, well maybe the task itself can be challenging isn't it?
Display - it's for pixels, though you're just too busy reading and remembering those numbers, but it's always good to finish successfully:fingers-crossed:
Speaker - time to practice the listening skill, guess who made that sound! LOL
Microphone - there's a fish, who responded to your voice, I'll leave the rest for you to explore
Cameras - can this one be a 'avatar' creator? :victory:
Flashlight - tap to charge power, get full power to turn-on the flashlight
Vibrator - beating drum, follow the rhythm, feel it?
Volume keys - well, to be honest, this one beats me. If you have any idea making it into an actual game, tell me--- ya right, you could just say let's do 'volumn changing'
Gyroscope - it's the maze, see how fast you can get out. the effects will be improved after update using collision engine. so please bear with me for the edge overlap
Accelerometer - this one beats me too, frankly speaking soda bottle is my best guess so far, looking forward to hear your ideas
Proximity sensor - let's do 'throw and catch', but you need to 'hit' the little creature, and catch the ball that tossed to you. but how to catch? Why not go'n find out :silly:
This is the hyperlink for play store to install the 'Diagnostic Game'

Please let me know if you spot any bugs or unwanted behavior, or would like me to optimize this app!
Cheers!
Guys, how do you think about this concept? There're definitely areas of improvement, no matter from tool or gameplay perspective, do u think this idea make sense?
To me, this Diagnostic game is more about a PoC---proof of concept for such style of tool-----you can also call it a game or featured game, with a different purpose.
One more thing, the new version is under developing, to enhance gameplay and make it more comfortable playing, reduce the complexity... ok I'll shut up
Hi Guys, we've launched a small event, please participate the survey and win yourself a small reward
Hi Guys, any suggestion is appreciated. We will offer award for participants
1: 3 for the novel concept but the mini games are not attractive to me
2: No crash
3: Suggest you to provide more feedback for users' operation. For example, while shaking the bottle, I have to stop frequently to check the status
Hi,
I want to do a little survey about redesign my app. Somebody may remember it - Elevation Tracker (here you can find some info: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/themes/app-elevation-tracker-gear-app-store-t3635451). I'm using it for a year and I want to find out if there will be enough interest from users.
Mission
To make the most out of the Gear S3's barometric data.
Default Altimeter has nice design, but it's not so practical.
Features
Algorithm for automatic recognizing of altitude change due to movement or barometric change due to weather. Example: You are sitting in the office for 4 hours withnout movement, than took a lunch in the kitchen - two floors higher, then come back for another 4 hours. The weather changes during the day, raining...
Samsung's altimeter: Shows growing the altitude, because the pressure decreases. Looks like you ascended 50m, descended 6m.
This app: Altitude is polished by Suunto algorithm (rule = alti change less than 2 meters in 2 minuts is marked as weather change). It shows you exacly ascended 6m and descended 6m. Graph is clearly flat when you are sitting, ignoring weather changes.
Ascended and descended elevation counter in selected interval. You can go 30 days back in precision of 1 minute. Of course, only if Gear S3 is turned on. Otherwise, gap if filled by flat line.
Using the bezel, you can read single altitude at specified time (date pickers, time pickers implemented). At specified time, you can calibrate altitude, which is taken as reference point for whole selected interval.
Graph shows MIN / MAX.
Main problem
It's not possible to support Tizen OS 2.3 and 3.0 at the same time. That's the reason I deleted the app from store. I updated it to support OS 3.0, but many users are still on 2.3 (I don't know why). Samsung did there very very bad job, unpossible to support both OS at the same time. Also, OS 3.0 is full of bugs for developers, but that is another story...
I like the circle graph. But most of you don't. So I want to add other layouts, recommended by you!
What I need from you
Do you want to use this app? Are you using Tizen OS 3.0? (app will not support OS 2.3)
Please help me with layout, post here some samples. It is easy to redesign the app now, because I have working core. But when I look at Garmin Fenix 5 or Suunto Spartan (see layouts in attached files) altimeters, I'm not sure if that is what the most pople want.
What another function you would like to see in the app?
Donate would be nice - in XDA profile The app will be always free, as it's mainly for me
Other...
My idea of using this app is:
-You are on trail and you can switch Gear S3 to offline mode with display turned off. At evening, in basecamp, you can analyse altitude data. Or event after 30 days!
-During working day, you can easily track when did you used elevator, went the steps etc...
The process of loading a new data (when you select new interval):
1. Graph of barometric pressure[blue] ->
2. Graph of calculated altitude[orange] ->
3. Graph of polished altitude[green], now bezel is enabled.
Thank you so much for ideas!!
Hey mate,
i've been here on XDA for a while now, but you got my attention enough to finally make an account.
I'd love to support you and your app, but first of all, it needs to be downloadable in Europe (Gears S3 frontier, without LTE).
As a gliderpilot this App could be a real help.
Some ideas include:
- Increase and decrease of altitude (in ft/min and m/s)
- Warning at: above, below, passing through a certain height
- Time between heights (interesting for high altitude hikers as well, like: above XXX ft for YY minutes)
As a pilot I also would like to see the glide slope, but this wouldn't fit into this app.
I'd like to offer my help as developer. I'm goood in C#/Photoshop but never have written something for Tizen. I would need some advice.
Otherwise i could offer a donation (but prefer to work^^)
Greetings
Diego
Hi Diego,
thank you for your post!
About developing for Tizen - it's a bit nightmare It is not difficult, the problem is OS bugs and no compatibility between different versions of OS, which cause bad reviews, which caused suspend of my apps in store. I want to support only latest OS for Gear S3.
Overall, it's not a problem to code your ideas at all. I'm using chart.js, where it's possible to graph almost everything.
I'm using this app a lot by myself, but I deleted it from the store, because OS 3.0 has a bug with rotary bezel (bezel is frozen after date/time picker shows) and I don't want to receive bad reviews. I may rename it as "beta" and post it again...
About your effort, it would be really helpful to design a layout in Photoshop. Than I can try to code it.
As the app is now working in history mode (browsing collected data (1 sample minute)), I would imagine splitting the app for
REAL-TIME mode (new)
HISTORY mode
So, what do you think about making some layouts?
Thanks!
Really interested in this app for Tizen 3.0.
Will it be available in the app store at some point?
Hi Dev,
Thanks for your work.
I used and installed your app, but as many users say, the 360 deg chart is counter-intuitive and ended up uninstalling.
I very much prefer the Suunto one, Garmin in second place.
Altitude charts always with linear x-y axis in my opinion, very intuitive.
Have you considered using altitude data based on location (like Strava does) instead of relying on barometric changes?
If the chart was linear I'd be happy to use again and donate.
IIRC, it was somewhat intricate to pick the timespan for the chart -don't remember the details.
Thanks
Hello,
but many users are still on 2.3 (I don't know why) => because there is not Tizen os 3 on some devices (Gear S2 for instance).
I’ve just reset my watch because I have to change my phone.
There is no way to get all old apps
Dashboard Watchface and altimeter for exemple disappears from my watch and there is no possibility to get it from Galaxy store.
What a shame. This is planned obsolescence.
