Hi guys,
Unfortunately it's that time of the year again where students go back to their universities and begin the process of temporarily absorbing material so that they can pass exams in order to get a piece of paper (Certificate) =P.
I have been looking for a program that will list all of my lectures/tutorials in a way that will integrate with TF3D, but unfortunately, most of the programs do more than I need and don't really look nice. I don't want to use the Home Screen for this because it would be too cluttered, and I don't want to use the Calendar for this because I want to reserve this for important/once-off events.
I am wondering if anybody would be willing to make me/teach me how to make a program that will simply list all of my lectures/tutorials for the day? Ideally it will be accessed through an additional tab in TF3D (using Singh's 15 tabs? or something else?). I am thinking that the list will give the subject name/title, location and time details. There is no need for things like assignments, due dates, etc, as this can be done through Calendar. Preferably this program will also be finger-friendly!
Is there something I can use to program it myself (I have basically no programming experience)? Or is someone able/willing to help me? I am willing to help out with the interface.
I think that this may be a relatively simple program to write, but I have no idea how to do it. Or is there something out there that does this already? I have searched the forums for "timetable", and also Google for "timetable windows mobile app", but nothing seems to suit.
Thanks guys!
Okay, by the number of views on this thread, I can probably guess that this is something that people are interested in...
...but nobody seems to know how/interested in doing it =S.
I am also thinking that this can be expanded into other uses, say, a To-Do list that's available at a glance, or a shopping list. I think it would be look best if it looked like the other TF3D tabs, both icon-wise as well as the theme wise (ie: see-through/big entries/smooth scrolling).
If anyone is willing to point me in the direction of how to make an app like this, I am more than willing to give it a shot. I only have a basic understanding of Visual Basic (from high school, lol ). But I can give it a shot.
Can someone point me in the direction of how to make this app? Or better yet, do it for me?
My bad about the double-post, but nobody seems to want to post!
Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.

beautiful app idea. how does this work ?
It uses free USSD request. Numbers like *100#...
hmnn.. it seems that it wont be able to update on Optus Australia. As you need to send sms to 9999 for usage details ! do you have anything similar to implemented in this or just the USSD commands ?
This is a great idea, i could have used something like this when i was on pay as you go. Nice work!
Ok the widget appearing is blank ? Is this normal i am using it with a USSD command on another phone with which the network supports.
Which phone? This is just the kind of issue i want to fix!
European SGS2 Stock XWKF3 rooted, blank too. (tested on free version)
Are you sure you got a ussd reply?
Yes I'm sure, I received the reply, made 2 indicators and I'm viewing the differences (green/red) between two calls.
Please send a log using Write to developer in Settings. Don't forget to add a description as the logs can be deceptively empty.
is it internationally?
You just need to know the codes for your operator ...
I have updated the app - please let me know if this fixes your issues!
Fixed all issues for me. Got the full version... great app!
Works great now, thanks, buying the full too.
Great! If you have suggestions, do let me know.
Hi guys. Im back to bother you about stability
Any issues to report before we start working on a new build?
Working great here, thanks.
Any issues? Suggestions?
Hi everyone,
I know you lot are down with tips and tricks so I wanted to ask if there is any trick to increase the number of characters allowed when saving a contact's name?
There certainly appears to be room for more characters but I keep having to abbreviate names in order to make a somewhat identifiable contact.
many thanks.
Hi there,
I've been googling and searching the forums for a while now and can't seem to find many Gnex specific dialer codes...
The only Gnex specific link I have found is http://pastebin.com/3TPQhqDi - however, there seems to be no mention of a LCD test or a RTN test for GSM devices. These are the pretty much the only two I want to use....
Does anyone have any idea how to check the return status of my GSM Nexus running stock JB (I've also tried this method - http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/21101/how-to-tell-if-your-phone-is-refurbished - which states this works on the gnex, but sadly not mine...is it a Verizon thing)? Or how to test the LCD through the dialer? I've tried a few general Samsung and Android codes but, alas - to no avail....
Also, I wondered if someone could shed some light on what some of the codes in the link above will do, as I'm not desperately keen to be calling random service codes on my shiny new device?!
Specifically the "Checkin", "Service Menu" and "TTY Test Mode" (I take it that's not TTY in the Unix console sense?)
Any help much appreciated
Hello everyone,
First of all, I'm not sure if this is the right section to post the question I have. So I apologize if it isn't
I was wondering if someone knows an app that can automatically switch your network mode to Edge when the phone is in stand-by (to save battery), and enable 3G again when the screen is turned on.
I have been searching on the internet but I couldn't find anything that suits my needs.
I would be interested in making such an app myself if it is possible to do so, but I'm not sure if Google allows developers to control such settings through an app.
However, I'm not really familiar with Android development in particular. I only know how to write Java desktop applications.
It would be nice if someone was willing to get involved in such a project.
Please let me know your thoughts on this :angel:
