Fail Log application for android allows you to browse daily updated FAIL photos,pictures on your phone and share them.
nice.
but maybe it would be good if you could tilt the screen for some images?
and what about the black dead area in the bottom? reserved for ads or what?

.apk?
Hey guys, any chance you can upload the latest version of the .apk here? I'm experiencing the "Starting Download" issue so I'm stuck to download and installing .apk's for the mean time.
P.S. If anyone knows how to fix the "Starting Download" issue without me having to reset my phone (Galaxy S) - PLEASE HELP. T_T
what worked for me was to delete the directory:
data/data/com.android.vending
acts just like a new market installation.
Installed this and for beeing an early app it's working fine.
But it would be nice if it could start preloading the next item in the list so I don't have to when a few seconds for the next item to load when hitting the left and right arrow.
Keep the updates comming, I've been wanting an app like this for a long time.
Like it a lot. Works pretty quickly on my Galaxy S. Much better than looking at the site through the browser. Just a couple suggestions, but a "view comments" option might be nice, as well as a setting to select which sites to pull from as this looks like it gets more than just failblog, but some of the other cheezeburger sites as well.
Can somebody put that program's ".apk" file here , please ? I can't using "Android Market" because of geographic problems. Thank you. =)
Tried it. very slow on a good 3G connection, some of the things I did see are not very new.
Uninstalled

I tried to look for the directory but couldn't find it. Is there something else I should do for this to appear? I'm using Astro to browse, I don't think the folder is hidden though.
can't find it in the market not via barcode nor via search
btw: do you have permission to use the failblog content?
cant find it in the market
barcode not working, can't find in market either... ???

Hi, I need some help beta testing my app HelpMe. I would really appreciate it if I could get help testing the email and location functionality. I don't have an android device so I can't test that functionatliy myself. All I'm asking is that you take a second and let me know if the email functionality works and/or if location functionality works properly. If there is anything I can do to help you in return I will be glad to.
Thank you very much.
App can be downloaded from the android market at https://market.android.com/details?id=com.HelpMe
..
is there a widget for it? if there isn't, please add it. If you get into trouble and desperately need help, its not like you have the time to open the app drawer and search for "Help Me" icon..
Good suggestion. I'll have to look into widgets, not sure what they are. Did you get a chance to test the app? Results.
Thanks again for the great suggestion.
You don't need a widget, one can just put a shortcut of the app on the home screen, so it is at hand when needed.
On the other hand a nice app icon would be nice.
Now to the program itself, it does not work on my device and rom according to my signature. Everytime when i try to open it it closes with an error message witch i cannot see correctly as it also closes immediately.

When an android app it should pop up with a dialog to submit an error. If you have logcat that would be great too!
Can you give it another try. I fixed the bug this time I think. Thanks again for all your help.

That's odd since nothing changed. If it worked before it should work now.
I just finished publishing my very first app, Voice SMS Replier, and would like some feedback. The purpose of the app was to imitate the Genius Button's Handsfree mode (since no one seems to have ported it to any ICS ROMs and I'm too dumb to figure out how I can use the apk file to debug it in eclipse). I'd like some feedback such as bugs and easy or useful features and options I could add.
Since this is my first post I can't post links, but you fill find it in the Play Store.

Used this for about 4 hours today, and it didn't intercept any of the ~100 texts I received. I really couldn't figure out if it did anything or if it was my error. Running ICS 4.0.3 ROM if that helps.

At this point the app needs to be running in the foreground. Is the app running/open when you're getting the messages?

I don't think I ever had it open while the phone was awake. It was usually open behind the lock screen. I'll give it another go tonight when I get home and hopefully have some better feedback.
Since you're looking to make this a vehicle app, maybe in the next update prevent the phone from going to sleep?

That's an excellent idea, I'll do that.
I'd like more feedback. I lost my key, so I can't update this app. The new new version is called SMS By Voice. I added the ability to run a service in the background, and wake up the phone.
Hello,
I want present my new app. that is in beta stage but fully functional: Phone usage monitor.
With this app you will be able to know when and how much you use your device and the apps that you have in it.
Please, report issues, if any, and suggest more events to monitorize.
Thanks
Play Store Description
Are you obsessed with your phone?
Up to what point?
Do you want to be aware of which apps are the most used?
Do you want to know what WiFi networks you connect to and at what time?
When are your applications updated?
Do you want to know if your phone suffers a expontaneous reboot or when you turn on or off the screen?
You need this app and you know it!

Thanks for the suggestion. Great idea!
It would also be nice to be able to monitor a remote phone (opening up the app to for parental monitoring for example).
This could be achieved by either allowing to :
- send a daily report by mail
- having a client app with data synced whenever a connection is avaialable
- sending data to a central server
...
anyway to export the data as .csv ?
Hello, thanks for app!
Any chance to remove "full network access" from permissions in future ?
Heya! Congrats on making the portal. Good stuff you got there.
Here's some suggestions for the intro texts:
Part 1 - Current
"Do you want to know how do you use your smartphone?
You have installed this app, so the answer will surely be affirmative.
With this app you can know with what apps you lose your time; time which you could lose living your real life..."
Part 1 - Suggested
"Would you like to know how you use your smartphone?
Well, as you've already installed this app, that'll be an affirmative!
By gathering statistics about your apps with Phone Usage Monitor, you'll know where your precious time is creeping off to. Time you might want to spend on living your real life..."
Part 1 - Motivation
The second "do" doesn't really have a function in the first sentence and I made it a bit softer to make a more friendly first impression. I mentioned the app's name to remind the user what's going to help them (branding, be proud of your creation). I stayed true to your intention, the reference to 'real life', but made that a bit softer as well by using "might" and not mentioning a negative word like "lose". We're all winners here!
Part 2 - Current
"To let us know this information we will run a service in the background to monitor the use you make of your smartphone.
Quiet!, it will not consume more than a little bit of the precious battery of your mobile..."
Part 2 - Suggested
"You're probably wondering how much battery this app will consume. Don't worry, just a tiny bit.
Think about the time you will save after gaining all this usage intel. You won't even need as much battery anymore."
Part 2 - Motivation
Shouting "Quiet!" doesn't come across very friendly. There's also never a comma after an exclamation mark. I wrote the text to match the battery icon better. I'm also pushing the major goal of the app forward.
Part 3 - Current
"We will give you more information if you let us see how do you use the apps in your device..."
Part 3 - Suggested
"Sorry to bother you but I will need some usage access in order to provide you with all these awesome statistics. Is that okay with you?"
Part 3 - Motivation
"let us see" gives the impression multiple people or a company will be watching along, which totally isn't the case. I wrote it a bit more personal, fun and friendly.
Part 4 - Current
"Do not worry!
The data we collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Suggested
"Do not worry!
The data I collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Motivation
As in part 3, It's better to speak from a first person point of view, "I" instead of "we". It's just the app and the user, "you and me", which is a more comforting thought.
Instead of "START APP" I'd use something more vivid like "Lets go!" or "Show me some numbers!" or "Start saving time!"
The UDPA looks good, people are used to not reading these disclaimers and accepting them anyway. It's also a nice reminder that even if there is a "we", it's literally stating no personal data will be collected on any server. Kudos! :highfive:
I personally don't like the last paragraph but ah well, one has to make a living, right?
Looking forward to those stats...

Hi,. Unfortunately the app crashes every time I open it on my OnePlus 6 that runs Android 9. The first time run screens work fine and permissions are assigned ok but then I can't open the app. I have tried clearing the storage/cache and that hasn't helped. Any ideas what to try next please?

I'm a Typeapp user for my mailaccounts. Since the latest upgrade to Android 13 it does not always show a notification. Randomly.
Typeapp suggested to alter the Battery Manager to allow the app running in the background. Did not help.
Then I tried a few other email apps for a week or so, but the same issue occured: not always a notification in time.
My idea is that this issue does not belong to the mailapp, but possibly Android 13 does something in the background that prevents a notification. Sometimes (and that's the irritating part!).
Somebody recognizes this?

This sounds somewhat familiar to me already since Android 11 where several people had the same issue regarding SMS/text messages arriving in time in Android (according to the logcat) but the notification message was often triggered few minutes or much later.
For a workaround for the SMS/text messages notification delay problem, effective at least for the default SMS/text/messaging app com.android.messaging, see the following GitLab issue (for klte) which even lead to one of the LineageOS developers reporting the bug to Google with the corresponding issue still being unresolved/open.
[Update 23.10.2022 for the sake of completeness]:
Other users reported the same problem for different phones No SMS while screen off and Notifications for incoming messages are delayed after device has been sleeping for a long time
It seems to me that this is a typical SMS-issue. I think my issue is a more general thing and I will try a hard reset and start with a clean Android 13 setup.
I'll give feedback afterwards... (when time and availability let me fix it)
Mauvan said:

Click to expand...

The reception of the SMS was/is not the problem in this case since it appears immediately after sending in the log but the notification triggers with a large delay/late.
Therefore I can imagine, that this is a general notification bug which also appears in other apps.
Simply trying out the command takes a few seconds and observing the behavior also only takes very little time.
Personally I would invest this little time before doing a hard rest ... but perhaps I am the only one who enjoys doing other things in his spare time much more rather than hard resetting his phone and going through the following tedious installation and setup of all apps from scratch.
I know, it is no fun doing those things like install and setup your phone
But what if I really cannot find the com.android.messaging app amongst all system apps? Or does it have a different name since A13??

I wrote my sentence in a "teasing" way but with the winking smiley because you seemed very determined reinstalling everything from scratch without trying the suggested workaround.
And since different people have different interests, there was still a small chance that you prefer having a clean Android installation anyway from time to time and simply want to make sure that the problem arose from a "dirty" upgrade from A12 to A13.
Anyway, I am now confused by your following statement:

The way I understood you is, that your issue did (at the moment) only affect email apps.
1.
Did you also observe the notification delay with the stock SMS/text messaging app?
2.
If not, what is the reason why you now want to identify the stock SMS/text messaging app?
Mauvan said:

This I don't know.
3.
If 1. == yes, is the app name displayed in the app info options menu (the place of the other settings like permissions, storage & cache, etc.) when you scroll all the way to the bottom (as it is the case in A12)?
4.
If 3. == no, then you can possibly identify it using the output of
Code:
adb shell pm list packages
or paste the result here so we can have a guess.

Well, if it only occurs in the mail apps, then let's stick with those.
So, instead of whitelisting the SMS/text app, I suggest to try the battery optimization whitelisting procedure with those.
As a first step, please execute the current content of the battery optimization whitelist by calling
Code:
adb shell dumpsys deviceidle whitelist
and paste the result (list of apps) in this thread.
This should help us in better understanding whether the whitelisting step via ADB (which was either already done by you via the Android UI, or if not, which we'll do once we have the result from the above call) actually changes the whitelist content.

By "which was either already done by you via the Android UI" I am referring to the thing you have done as stated in your statement quoted above. Since the information how you did it is quite vague, I need the requested info.

Since we are now ignoring the SMS/text ab, you can forget about the adb shell pm list packages command but need to execute the other (ADB) command mentioned above.
There are many tutorials on how to use ADB - I am only (randomly) posting the official instructions:
https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb
So you mainly need 2 things:
PC: ADB executable - downloadable from https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Android: Settings > System > Developer Options > USB debugging
There's not even an option in Settings > System for USB debugging and Developer Options in my Pixel.
In another life I was a programmer but this goes beyond my capabilities (and patience to figure it out).
I give up.
Thanks for all your efforts, but it's all abacadabra for me. A hard reset is almost faster
