Thanks anyway!

Is there any danger of using this app?
I mean about 40 times faster... Looks like it gets 40 times faster broken, you know?

Works really good, like the previous (1.5) version of the app. I like the new design, the design of the buttons is a thing of taste, personally I think they are okay
Superuser says that android.permission.ACCESS_SUPERUSER wasn't declared in manifest.
Maybe you could do this so, people can see then that this permission is required when they install it

Thanks for the hint !

Hey dude, I uploaded the 512x512 icon for you earlier today. I hope it's the one you were looking for. Man it's been a long time since we were working on this.

Hey dude, I realise that you have given me pride of place in the app for the design work credit, but I would really appreciate a credit in the app description on the play store, simply for CV purposes.
I'm glad I was able to help you with the design and if you ever need anything for this app or for another, gimme a shout.

EDIT: Just spotted that you have added an "A" in my surname. Sort it out brother.

Just wanted to know if themers

Have gotten their hands on dxtop. What obstacles and new challenges might it posses?
this is very interesting, good find.
I never heard of this before. This will allow me to build a digital clock widget to give my fadetoblue theme more of a TouchFlo3d look. Thanks!
Thats sick works well but if you have a theme installed it wont read the launcher from the theme so the stuff in the Luncher.apk from the theme wont show up clock,google search bar and stuff like that. Great idea and if themes can be installed with this its going to be bad a$$.
just bought it
Lovin it!
One of the best apps so far!
if you download the apk couldnt you just replace and theme the elements in that and upload it? or is that not something that could be done? i understand that you couldnt redistibute it, but for your personal use no? i opened it up and it looks similar to the launcher...just a thought

well it would be easier if the developer got together with Jesusfreke and make it into a big update and incorporated the app as the home screen for a small donation type thing? I would pay again for a update like that then the sky is the limit with themes for this.
yeah i updated the elements like in the normal launcher by the way and resigned the whole app. people would have to know how to put the elements in the app themselves after purchase... not for amateurs. would like to see someone pull off some way to do it easily though.
so randum, does that mean you already have a theme for it?

And as far as pirating the app, thats gonna be hard. Its not the actual update.zip your modding, its his apk which could prove to be troublesome. Maybe there's a way to get everyone together who has purchased it & they can share the themed versions??? Just an idea
How do you sign the .apk after you edit it doesn't work with the .apk resign tool.

well i signed the demo with no problem, but i am having a problem with the paid version... cant seem to sign it correctly
there should be a meta.inf file in it that you need to remove to resign it so it takes the test keys. Why not just send baron a pm and talk to him? One idea would be to give him the themes to release through his website.
I asked him about whats been talked about here this is what he said.
Quote:
My first implementation of themes will be to look on the sdcard for the assets in the same directory structure and filename that they are found in the dxtop.apk.
Something like this: /sdcard/dxtop/theme/res/drawable/clock_dial.png
or
Something like this: /sdcard/dxtop/theme/res/drawable-land/tray_handle_normal.png
Then i asked him this,i hope it could be done.
Quote
O.k i got you so this would solve the problem i love this app bro very cutting edge,hey i have another Q: off topic if you can make your app look for those folders could a app to install themes be created using this format you have come up with or maybe even have it install a whole update.zip?.
If this can be done my whole world will change.
Original Thread: http://dxtop.wikidot.com/forum/t-135037/help-theme-creators
I would love it if we could change themes without having reflash everytime.
He said he going to try to make that happen but he needs to work on it more.

Thanks and great idea. I first read your post in the general area and read the blog, but didn't have time to reply.
FWIW, and just so you know, it's against Google's Terms to in any way explicitly entice, tell, or ask someone to click on your google ads.
Considering you are hoping on some form of monetization from this blog, blogger is a google product, and if google catches you (you even say it right on the page...) they will take away your account and any money it has earned.
Just thought I'd let you know so you didn't get in trouble.
Great idea and thanks for the blog though, I'd been thinking about doing something similar for a long time now and just haven't had the time. Good work!
Thanks a lot guys! Hope i can help..

cheers but these roms arent about making money. thats what our jobs are for. theyre about doing somthing you enjoy and sharing what you do with the community here. if people want to donate theyre welcome to but they dont have to pay to use the things on this site. yes it may help the popularity of my roms but it also helps with the idea of the blog it being there. other than that there is no planned gain from me saying that

ChangeLog 2010-08-13
Wipe of all, it is applicable, read below and you will understand why.
Chose to redo all CyanogenMods latest source with all the updates even from 2010-08-12
Nightly builds.Tog it works well from there together with that worked well in my version 1.1.
Built on some features, but mainly roe stablil now, what I think is missing now is a core
which is built on the 2.6.32 source when roe is 100 percent but may be satisfactory to the source we have today, there are quite a few grains to download if you are not satisfied with that which is in rum, Ninpo to recommend and have Feeyo got together a great core.
Removed launcherpro it put to the fc'n when it had little time but also a sense of it for your memory.
Removed PhoneBook
Remove Switch Pro
Added AWDLaunchern
Added DPSManagern
Added CyanogenMods all programs (Mass nice extra features) blah you as a user himself tweak eg battery color + add% on how to retain the battery in the status bar + lots more.

this is the best froyo rom in my opinion

Could you please make it a little more clear that this is made by elelinux? Hoping for screenshots and what is not there from the original post xD
Hmm. Seems that the author of this rom closed down the download links, cause you posted it here on XDA. His FTP is not made for that many connections.
You should probably have asked first before posting it.

seriously? I for one thought that elelinux was ok with it being here but didn't want to do the posting himself due to his lack of comfort in the English language.

good thing I downloaded it from the swedish site before this ftp issue happened ;-)

Well, idk, it just said on his post... translated: "Sorry, closing down all download links because someone posted this on XDA, the ftp is not made for that many connections ".
Sounded like he didn't want it here cause of limited downloads... But I don't know. He would probably tell the OP if he didn't, so
Well, I guess then OP or someone nice could upload it to multiupload or whatever to alleviate the traffic that caused blockage of the ftp And hopefully OP will take some time to clear up the first post because there are some really hard to understand passages. Anyway, will keep an eye on this one, hoping to see a download link :]

dialer one, free in the market.
or nubdialer, almost exactly the same but with fewer features (edit: ok, different features would be more fair maybe?). some people choose their product based on reasons other than features, such as license (open source), or their favorite dev.

[PROJ]WeightWatchers app development for WM

Here are the algorithms:
Points Plus = protein/10.94 + carbs/9.17 + fat/3.89 - fiber/12.49
Points Regular = calories/50 + fat/3.89 - fiber/5
can you post printscreen of the others applications ?
just to know if it's only a "basic" formula calc or not
Here ya go mate, here's the old app from 2004:
invalid attachment...
by the way, is it only a calculator ?
OK, this is really rough and ready. My first WM app so be gentle. Just a plain exe file, copy to device and run.
If it works I will try and "tart" it up a wee bit.
Wow, thank you. It works very well. Would you be willing to share your work/source code so i can learn what you did?
Here's a slightly prettier version.
I'll put the code etc up sometime tomorrow, but it basically is four text boxes with a button that converts each to numeric, applies the formula and shows it in the fifth text box.
This is all that I need. Thank you very much for your work.
I can't wait to take a look at the source ^>^
So you have to type this all in, before you can eat it? Or do you need this the calculate a total per day?

I suppose one could do it this way but what I do is write the food i eat down as i eat it, then i calculate all the ponts later.
If i have too many points then i know to get rid of the foods with exessive points for the next day.
My particular goal is to eat well without tracking points - to train my mind to want healthy food choices.
Yup, the initial request was for a calculator to use on an item by item basis, which is what I have done.
The delay in releasing anything is that I got distracted by making it also do the old points scheme as well, which is nearly done. Hope to have a new exe file later tonight.
Are there any differences I should be aware of with regards to US and UK calculations?
OK, here's the latest version.
Does both old and new systems
maybe need to change name
WW are very strick on anything named with Weight Watchers. But this app is so great and I thank you so much.

Interesting hypothesis: Letting users feel free to track the old way and the new way.
Also, the US way to calculate was the formula I gave on the first post.. Not sure what the UK way would be..
Would you still be willing to upload your source for the second and third .exe you created, out of the three you have ? ^>^
EDIT: How about the name WW4WM? Also, I think you should make this 'prettier' and try to get it sponsored by Omarket and XDA Marketplace.
I've created a place for this on SourceForge
Link here.
When I can work out how to post the code there I will do so, in the meantime here's a zip of the entire DotNet tree. Only includes the latest version.
good job.
hope you will not have any probs with WW !
I've begin to do one too, but as you're the first releaser I give you the hand
;-)
i've included a possibility to have an .xml file in which you can add foods with some numbers and you can select this food in a droplist and then all fileds are prefilled.
maybe you can do something like that.
keep up this good job !
Thanks for the support, unfortunately I have sort of reached my developers skill limit for the moment.
Currently trying to work out how to do rounded buttons so the app looks nicer!
I can't wait to try your release too, corwin. I will try it s soon as released.
I plan on learning from your code too, dee.
Thank you both for all your work for my request.
if anyone is interested i'll keep making, but i don't want to steal jobs from deedee !
can you give me some more infos ? like what is in the "options" menu ?
and if you can give me a list of some predefined foods with already some values in "calories", "fat" and "fibers"...

Feel free to carry on, it sounds like your skills are much better than mine. This was my first WM program and so is very "simplistic".
I'd like to see how other things are done as it progresses.

[FREE][APP][2.2+] Timesheet

Hi testers,
I've developed the app Timesheet. It's an app for keeping track of your work hours for payroll reporting, billing etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217159
I think, compared to the competitors, it got the most complete feature set. But i'am only getting 60-100 downloads a day, and currently the retention rate is a dismal 25%. Why?
The few ratings the app got is good (4.3), but i need critical feedback!
Why do downloaders uninstall the app?
Is the app to complicated?
Is the app poorly designed?
Is the app missing some key feature?
Is the app buggy?
Is it the ads?
Is is the lack of translations?
What is it!?
Please download, it's free, and give it a try. Then tell me whats wrong, the cold truth!

Hey! I saw your app and was really eager to test it out. However, I decided not to because I saw it required a lot of permissions; most of these permissions I did not feel comfortable giving the app. I was planning on using this to audit my payroll for myself.
I think having too many sensitive permissions is not good for this type of app in my opinion. Things like reading my personal information, my accounts, to me seems a bit much for something I was just going to use to audit my payroll.
I hope this helps! Good luck And I look forward to see how this project progresses.

Thanks for the feedback.
I've suspected potential user might see this as an issue. I think i'll move some features to optional plug-ins to reduce the permissions requirements, like READ_CALL_LOG (used by phone tasks) and MANAGE_ACCOUNTS/AUTHENTICATE_ACCOUNTS (used by ftp client).
Very good

Sweet alright thanks for the tip. Ive never used illustrator im a Photoshop guy but ill give it a try. Also i tried the app and i had a few issues getting around the UI i got a bit lost but i looks stable and also idk why but maybe just integrate the 3 icons you have installed into one that way it doesnt clutter the homescreen, i know some users dont like having 3 icons for one app. Maybe include a side bar sorta like G+ does.

Thanks for the feedback.
I've heard others getting lost . The problem is that the app is a bit complicated. The view and data structure is both hierarchical (Main > Projects > Tasks > Expenses/Breaks) and wide at each level (Details, Tasks/Breaks, Expenses, Files). I've looked at the side drawer but it doesn't really fit the hierarchy part.
The app actually had three seperate launcher icons in earlier versions. Now it just adds the two additional home screen shortcuts. But even these will be removed in the next version.

^_^ Thank you so much! I'm gonna give this a test starting tomorrow morning! To be honest, I didn't expect you'd go this far just from one suggestion. You're awesome :good:
I'll check it out, I've been looking for a good finance managing application anyways

I love the set up and the simplicity, one thing I think you could add to make it better is a start date on the project page, I found it confusing to backdate my project until I went on the calander and added it that way. Also as a former door-to-door salesman and now a subcontractor for construction one other thing I found frustrating is there iz no pay by the week, by the sale or by the job option sometimes I work odd hours and get payed compensation, sometimes I work odd hours and get payed by the job, and sometimes I work odd hours and get payed by the week so if you could add that it would become the perfect app for me

And one last thing to top it all off would be a total income/outgoing page a way to track what im making and spending in the time to come.

Timesheet is should really be used to punch in every time you begin work. That's why the start date is set to today when creating a new task. But as you found out, the History tab is the quickest way to add past time entries.
Change the timespan in the Overview/Details tab to see income, overtime and expenses per day, week, month, etc..

Timesheet isn't intended to be used as a calendar to register future work. But that sounds like an interesing feature we could incorporate better support for.

Hi testers,
I've developed the app Timesheet. It's an app for keeping track of your work hours for payroll reporting, billing etc.

I think, compared to the competitors, it got the most complete feature set. But i'am only getting 60-100 downloads a day, and currently the retention rate is a dismal 25%. Why?
The few ratings the app got is good (4.3), but i need critical feedback!
Why do downloaders uninstall the app?
Is the app to complicated?
Is the app poorly designed?
Is the app missing some key feature?
Is the app buggy?
Is it the ads?
Is is the lack of translations?
What is it!?
Please download, it's free, and give it a try. Then tell me whats wrong, the cold truth!

Greatful for any and all feedback.
I made the icon myself according to the Android design guidelines. Tip. Make you icons in Illustrator for a crisp result in all resolutions.

Inkscape is also a goody and it's free!

I was looking under internationalization-> currency and noticed there was no UK (Pound Sterling) or have I missed something???
My first impression is that the app is a little daunting... but then I have never looked at a timesheet app before!
If you are you using Androids analytics you can get a good understanding of the areas people use the most. This is a good way to analyse your app, and make decisions in terms of UI.
Sorry I can't be more useful I'm not your target market

Yeah, it’s a bit over engineered. But with so much features it’s hard to keep it simple.
Since i posted this thead, we’ve added alot of features and made the UI a bit more flashy, and it helped alot. The app now got 300+ downloads a day with a retention rate around 30%. It’s top 5 of it’s kind so i think the app has reached it’s peek.
Hi there. I tried your app months ago when I was searching for... well a "timesheet" app. I was one of those who uninstalled your app. One of the common problems here in our small company was having to fill up these excel sheets. I thought your app could help me track my work hours, just to find out it was a bit complicated than what I was expecting. I only wanted to track my work hours. Basically I just wanna know how many hours I spent in a project for that day. In your app I needed to input my hours first before actually starting with my task. I know this is not the proper way to handle projects and all, but there are times when we need to insert some side jobs in between projects. So there you go.

You don't have to input the hours before you've done the task! You just begin the task and then later end it.

Voice commands, anyone?!
Any Timesheet users here who downloaded the latest version 1.2.7?
If so have anyone tried the voice commands?
Sufficient testing was impossible since the emulator doesn't have any Speech Recognition engine!
