[Closed] Open WiFi Finder - Call for Beta Testers

Hi Guys,
I am writing a small application called Open WiFi Finder and I am looking for some Beta testers.

It is a .NET 3.5/OpenNETCF application that tries to locate open WiFi Access points. It does so by repeatedly trying to connect to the most powerful AP and ping a well known address for reply.
I am planning to sell this app on the Marketplace for a small fee, but before doing so, I would like to gain more confidence by testing it to more devices. I only own two rather old HTCs and it seems to work fine. Yet, I suspect that it behaves very differently with the various wireless adapters out there.
So please, If you like to help me with this, PM me with your email/device model so I can send you the cab to try it. It only supports Touch Screen devices with QVGA/WQVGA/VGA/WVGA. Of course, all selected beta testers will get the final cab free of charge..!
EDIT: I now have enough people willing to try it. I will let you know if I want some more. Thanks again everybody.
EDIT2: Link for download is here:
http://marketplace.windowsphone.com/details.aspx?appId=09c5dae9-3800-45d3-aaea-6ef7b54df2df

ok i am about to pm you. i am way excited to test this app.

sign me up pls

Ill give it a wirl for you

Guys, pm me your details please! Otherwise I don't have a way to contact you!

[DVP Release] Dell Venue Pro - Compass App (Working using native COM access)

Good news and a final breakthrough in getting a Compass App for Dell Venue Pro using the DVP's native COM dll (OurCOM.dll). This compass app was part of the EM App in DVP. All i did was extract the code out, clean it and put it as a seperate App.
Next target is the registry access with read and write..I'm excited.
Big thanks to Chris Walshie and others in this thread who got the native COM access working using reflection.
Have fun and let me know how it goes.
Note: You need to have a developer unlocked or chevron unlocked device to sideload this app.
***This app will only work on a Dell Venue Pro***.
Revision History:
V1.1 - Updated with Direction Indicator

You are awesome. Thank you!! Quick question for you, would it be possible to combine the working compass with the LG Scansearch app?

cant connect platform em. error on a focus...

Can i install it on htc phone ?
I tired to install it on my htd phone Error can not connect Platform EM...

If it's using a Dell-specific driver, then no, it won't work with other OEMs. You'd need some abstraction layer to provide a standard API for accessing the compass, and if WP7 had that we probably wouldn't need homebrew apps in order to access it. :-/

This is a Dell specific App. Uses Dell specific Native COM.

notified schapman about this development
I'm hesitant to write a quick story about it, although I could now...it's up to you notebook should I write a quick article for wmpu about this or wait till the registry is cracked
let me know in PM

Thanks for this app.
Is there companion calibration functionality somewhere? The compass readings are way off (about 90 degrees) on my phone.

Other than shaking the handset, there isn't any. I can add a setting to offset the result by a user entered number(both + and -). Not sure if that will help.

Any progress on the registry editing stuff? I'm happy to lend a hand. I have a couple of DVPS and a good knowledge of C# / Windows Phone Development

Hello when I start EM on the DVP I have a error cant connect platform EM, what now?

uninstall and reinstall it

Thanks It seems a shame that only a desktop calculator app is included with Windows 8 / RT, so I'm really glad my calculator app has been well received. I have lots more features planned for the next update including memory functions, and being able to copy the running total or full equation to the clipboard.

Is there a way to install your app without using Win store as I don't have access to store because of unsupported country?
I will be really appreciated for your help.

Ohh!!!!! Sorry for interrupting. The app is a paid version. So, sure I can't got that forever.

You may be able to access the Windows Store in an unsupported region by signing up for a new Microsoft Account in a supported region (such as USA), then creating a new user account on your PC and signing in with your new Microsoft Account. If it works you'd only be able to download free apps, but it may be useful solution until the Windows Store becomes available in your region.

I like the look but I want to try it before I buy it. No option for a trial.

I'm going to add a trial option along with a lot of new features in the next update, which should be available before the end of the month.
Edit: A full featured 15-day trial is now available. Along with some other new features including memory save/recall.

[APP] OblyAutomator - An automatic tile downloader that works with OblyTile

Hello! If you've used OblyTile in the past, you'll know what an excellent piece of software it is. I always thought that the process of resizing icons was a bit tedious though, and when my Windows 8 install corrupt itself, I couldn't be bothered to start again. OblyAutomator should provide a solution to this. My website hosts an online database with applications, and icons that are suitable for each application. Users are presented with a choice of icons, and OblyAutomator calls OblyTile with the correct parameters, which creates the new tile.
This is a video of OblyAutomator in action:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZmr8tdUOaE
Attached is OblyAutomator. It also requires OblyTile (v0.91) in the same directory. Also included is TileUploader, which allows you to add links to icons to the database. I will moderate these, so your icon link won't appear until I've decided that it's suitable and of a high quality.
I'm not sure if there's a demand for an app like this. This is a very early version, and may have a lot of bugs. Please post your thoughts and comments below!
Thanks,
Thomas
12/06/2013: Version 0.11 Uploaded that prevents crashes when searching for applications, and when deleting temporary files.

Thanks, this looks great, but I only get error when I start this program. See attachment.

Sorry to hear that! Please could you post a larger version of that screenshot? I can't quite make out what the error message says.
Thanks,
Thomas

Thanks for that. I think I know what has happened, I'll release v0.11 later today which should fix the issue.
Thanks,

Hi sewa2k, thanks for replying!
If it doesn't recognise all of your apps, then it must not have them in the database! I will have a look at the database and see what icons people are requesting, and try and add some more. Feel free to add them yourself though!
Currently there are 5500 apps that have been found, but only 24 of them have icons! Not all of the 5500 apps are ones that you'd want on your start screen, but today I'll be looking through for some popular apps to make tiles for.

[APP]Xperia Icon Converter for New Launcher ALPHA VERSION

Hello everyone
Since most of you know, sony released a new launcher with icon support. But sadly, they don't support most of the icon packs. A few created by xda members but it's not a real solution. A while ago, I created a tool for automatically convert those icons with computer help. It's based on java, and it's in VERY VERY early stage of development.
It's not guaranteed that it will work at all, but i tried with my phone xperia z3 compact. And it seems worked all the time.
Known bugs
-App name, app icon is not generating. It's always framed with some sorf of icon.
-It freeze while converting because lack of threads
-Sometimes it can't display all of the installed apps , which is absolutely weird
-Only 1 app can be converted for this time because of package names are same. If you convert apk. Just select none and apply. Then select framed again to "refresh" new icons
For the sake of small tutorial, I used polycon icon pack which can be downloaded from google play
1.Connect your phone with usb debugging activated
2.Press "Connect Phone"
3.App will be listed in combobox (it will show app name in the future ofc, and If possible I will limit those apps to display only icon pack apps)
4.Press convert button. ( It will freeze, I know i didn't implemented threads because i'm lazy guy.)
5.Choose it from icon pack settings
Application will download, convert and install apk to your phone.
Here's some screenshoots

Hidden, because they are huge.
Oh bonus, it developed in java. It should be working at mac,linux(replace adb file with linux adb file) ,windows(not yet)
So, there won't be a download for just jar file not yet. I will give you eclipse project, download it. Play with it. I'm open to suggestions. Code fixes etc.
This is first time i ever develop adb app. So I had no idea how to connect device, get stuff etc. I tried my best my it might be stupid solution, please don't hate me.
PS: I'm college student and I have finals. I just put this because i just developed this for 2 hours a week ago and its been there since. I will continue develop when i got time.

Hey guys, unfortunately I have problems with my phone. As I said before, I can't develop anymore. But thanks for 500+ downloads even if it's just source code not even binary!
