It's possible ... There are some options to collect data from a website ..
if the website provides an API (mostly JSON or XML output) you can easily request an API key and get the data, and parse it .
Or, if the website does not provide any API, You can parse the HTML DOM of that website and scrape the data from various fields using any Java HTML DOM parser and display the info in your app. (but be warned, your code may stop working if they make any major change to their website)
All the best ! :good:
Please Help me
I bought a symphony w71 but i can not install game on it. What is the problem.
Related
I downloaded somewhere some image sizes - below are two. I am not too sure which one I downloaded these for / from. But can these icon information be used for Windows Mobile 7, Android, and iPad / iPhone?
From what I think I remember speaking with one developer helping him with testing his game, I think he said it was $99.00 a year for 100 applications. If I only wanted to submit one (free) application, would it be better to find someone that already has the feature to develop this application? The application is very small - mainly to read one specific RSS feed.
Hey
the developer account costs are not connected to the image license price. If you want to submit a WP7 app to the marketplace, you have to own a developer account, that costs $99/year. But this price does not grant the permission to use these pictures. You have to ask the creator whether you're allowed to use them.
Regards
Chris
Thanks - sorry I did not mean to imply I would use these images, I just did not know if it was these image (sizes / quality) that was needed.
If the developer has an account though and he develops the app that I need, can he use that account to upload the app?
Hey
For the licensing procedure and requirements you should visit this link:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh184843(v=VS.92).aspx
But I don't get your question. If you're asking wheter you could have another developer programming and submitting the application you need the answer is yes. Every developer that has an account can send apps in. You just have to find someone that wants to create your application. Another possibility would be to program your app yourself and send the compiled version to a developer, so that he can pass it to the WP marketplace...
Regards
Chris
If you need an app built for something easy like an RSS feed, check this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941248
it discusses a build your own app website.
http://thirdlabs.com/
I have never used it and have no afiliation with the site, but it looks easy enough...
Anywho, once the app is made, you can
sideload it (if you're unlocked)
pay for a dev account and submit it ($99 a year)
try to get a free student account and submit it (see here )
find someone with a dev account that will submit it for you
good luck
Thanks for the links! I have run into the RSS feed link - but it was not that site.
Yes, Chris - that answers that question. I thought as much but wanted to make sure. (Sorry it is difficult for me to sometimes get my point across due to my health).
Hi there!
I kept the thread about java apps in menu:
Code:
h ttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=[HTML]912270&page=6
Now, I want to implement those icons to MainMenu and Desktop of Bada 2.0
I have seen callings in other branded firms to Java Apps in the Menu. There were modifications in HsMenuItemURL.ini and MainMenu_Init.ini. The calling to the Java app or ID was set in 210.
I tried the same with OperaMini, which is set in ID=80. The Java app shows but it does not open, nothing happens. I think I'm missing something. Maybe, some file to place the ID and relate it to the .jar. Don't know yet.
Any help? Any solutions?
[EDIT] Success in running some Java apps from the Main Manu: Opera Mini and Google Maps. Only some IDs known. Any list of rest of IDs?
Best Regards!
Do you explain it for bada 2.0 and add more java apps main menu. Thanks

Hi, there is some ID's if you need:
109 - Dolphin messaging
110 - orange games
164 - search
in this interval 97 -112 - orange maps and app shop
in this interval 33-48 - my music, orkut
I know about the IDs already
But this is not the spirit of sharing/open sourcing the work done....This is like "Download this Custom to Know"
I am too lazy to download and look into it right now but when i do this i'll explain what to do to get this as advertised ....Maybe i'll say how to get unlisted apps too

There is 4 files to modify:

for exemple:
// Navigate

And place your java application in AppEx\SysDefault\Java\Games
This does not work with all java applications, only with predefined ones.
Lasetenza,
For main Menu we have standart list of predefined application, but
we can change java application, now i can start Jimm by shortcut Palringo.
for it we need to correct class, vendor and name in KJxDispatch.ini and KJxMidlet.ini
And seems that all string from menu located in System.rsr, and i think we can correct name of java application. But i don't know how to correct icons((((

It is exactly how lasentenza explained, modifying those 4 files. No more interesting IDs found nor found the way to implement other apps with a custom ID. However, I am still researching, I'm a stubborn
Hello again fellow windows phone 7 users! Once again I’m looking for people willing to participate in the private beta-testing program of my newest app. The app to be released is called “GPS Calculator PRO” and it will be an even more advanced version of the most advanced GPS calculations app “GPS Calculator”. Currently this app can be used to accurately calculate distances, get altitude information from digital elevation models, calculate areas, project locations and convert coordinates between several different formats, including UTM. New version adds an advanced trip computer, track recording and SkyDrive integration and track and waypoints (favorites) import/export using GPX format. GPS Calculator PRO is an old style app that cannot be described using words like social or fun, but can definitely be described as useful, interesting and doing advanced math. Now, if you use SkyDrive, if you hike, bike or run, if you like GPS technology or want to learn more about it – I need your help.
As per usual process please send me your live-id if you want to try this beta app.
Here is a guide: http://lj2.karlson.ru/wp7/gps/guide_en.htm
You can send me a beta link at davor.radman at hotmail.com

This is weird. Maybe I sent you an outdated link accidentally or the live-id you gave me is not the live-id of your phone. Are you sure mibs68 at-mark hotmail dot com is correct? I can generate a new link for you, if you would like too.
Totally Awesome app!!! Very specialised for cartography needs, you'll never lost yourself with that on your device!! Also a pleasant entertainment app if you're curious about your environment...you can compare how big is your field next to the neighbors ones
Will download the new link tonight.
hm, never got an email..

Hello all!
I am looking into development of something which is similar to people's list in people hub. What I want is a huge list of people on one page with (of course) LonglistSelector. When I tap a member of the list, I want the user to be navigated to the details page of that item. User needs to be able to manipulate and modify the data on the details page. The list is going to be real huge. I have a few question about the approach.
1. What is the best way to store data? I am thinking of creating local database with a few columns with person's name in one column, age in another etc.
If this is the approach to go for, can anyone provide me detailed description about the databases? I have deeply gone through the MSDN, WindowsPhoneGeek and many other documentations. I feel dumb about the whole database scenario.
2. Is XML list as database a good approach for large amounts of data or it will be pain?
i would say SQL CE is your best bet to store huge amounts of data. XML is slow at large volumes of data when compared to JSON. I would prefer JSON over XML.

So basically, I need to go with the local database using LINQ. Now, how do I do that? As I mentioned, I have read intensively. However, I just don't seem to get hang of it.

I created my local database with LINQ based off this sample:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/hh286405(v=vs.92).aspx
First define the columns which you would want to create and then modify the sample code to suit your needs.
For contacts, there is an excellent sample available:

if you are stuck with some particular piece of code then let me know, i would be glad to help you out

I had gone through those links earlier! Back then, they made very little sense to me. I have researched a bit by now. I will update here if I get stuck somewhere.
hi
i had read the thread now and maybe this example of MS can help you... it's not based on local database, but uses ASP.NET Web API!
so maybe this is a way for you..

I'm attaching my code file to the post. When I try to run the app and click the button (it tries to add an item to the observablecollection) I get NullReferenceException error. Apparently, the collection's instant hasn't been created. But I tried to instantiate it using 'new' keyword - no luck. Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks for the response! After a lot of debugging and (almost literally) adding Debug.writeline after each line of code, I managed to solve it. It had nothing to do with the Database or the ObservableCollection. It was totally different - GroupDescriptor issue! More details here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ion-while-adding-item-to-observablecollection
I'll post here if I get stuck with something again.
Again, thanks a lot!
Any reason you are using telerik controls? for starters and very simple programs, you can use controls from silverlight toolkit or coding4fun toolkit. i am using longlist selector which does the job just like the jumplist from telerik controls does.

No specific reasons except that the Jumplist provides StickyHeader functionality. And animation framework seems nice addition too!

Ask other template designer for its certificate if he is willing to give you.
You should do your own design and not copy another one even if it is a "template."
As a first step you need to create Samsung developer account.
When you create it, you get unique certificate ID to use within PC aplication and your watch. Everything is detailed explaned inside aplication Help and on Developers website, therefore I suggest to read it carefuly. Every watch face designer have own unique ID, therefore you can NOT use watch faces or templates that someone else created or use someone elses templates without their knowledge.It is saftey measure by Samsung with a goal to prevent so called "Chinese syndrom" of stealing or copying someone elses work. Also, your certificate ID is necessery to upload your watch face on Samsung Galaxy Store for others to download.
