Currency Converter

Hi,
Anyone can recommend me a good "Currency Converter" app that has this characteristic ?
- Light weight (not bloatware)
- Has automatic currency update when connected to ActiveSync or periodic.
I like MxConverter, but it does not have automatic currency update unfortunately.
Thanks for any info

WorldMate does that. . bloat or not.. you judge it yourself.

Yes, I checked that, but WorldMate asks for monthly subscription fee

1-Calc

I just use xe.com which is live and free...
I believe they also have a mobile site but can't find the link at the moment.

Fizz Traveller also has a currency converter.

I Like MX Converter, it's got free updates Plus is converts anything to anything, not just money. It's on Pocketgear and is a small prog.

I am using this application. It works very well on my HTC TP2 and I can have more than 1 currency at a time which is where Worldmate is lacking for me. It does updates over the net.

I am using SpB Traveller now, and it is working good.

Pocket Dyno ?

Is there anyone programming a Dyno/Quartermile -Measuring Application?
I've found one for the *uaaah* Iphone/Ipod Touch *uaaaaah* called "Dynolicious"
http://www.dynolicious.com/
Looks great!!
Time to get a competitor on Diamond *g*
greetings
Alex

yeah i agree with that its looks very nice.
nice idea for the diamond. i'm looking forward to how this program works

GPSSkinner should be able to give you most of the info and even with a design you choose yourself

Wow this is just what I need. Would definately pay actual money for that app on the diamond

I like this idea also. GPSskinner only use the GPS, it would be nice if this can be done with the G-Sensor we have in our diamonds....

gps thingy only measur speed that can my tomtom also ^^ the dyno program from dynolisious has much more options then only speed

I would definately buy an application like this for the diamond.
My car is going to be tortured so much, as soon as this app is available.
Looking forward to it ;-)

yeah now we need someone that can make this
hehe i can't still learning c and java :O

This certainly looks awesome.Anybody looking into making this for the diamond?

that's great
i have used up to now the gti.sis from www.tempes.com with an symbian phone and it works not bad
but measurements with the g sensor you get better values for a reproducible
acceleratin.
i hope someone can do the hard work

I would like something like that http://www.veypor.com/veypor.html
It is accelerometer - based!!

If it can be developed on the iPhone, and HTC is "The phone with all the things iPhone STILL misses" then it should be possible to program it for the HTC aswell ! Just requires a programming nerdy with fuel in the blood

Yes, please someone make this program. im happy to donate for this

dynolicious by mail as reply to inquiry said:
Thanks for your interest in Dynolicious.
Unfortunately, we have no current plans to support any platform other than the iPhone.

Nope,guess not...the bastards
So someone have to clone it

I gonna donate a cup of coffee at starbucks to the guy who makes it for Touch Diamond!

i'd donate $25 for a comparable program like the iphone version.
there's a new video on yt, where the [email protected] is compared with a dynojet + gtech.
iphone was much more accurate and much better to use...

Here's a couple other standalone hardware examples. Maybe they would write the software?
http://www.traqmate.com/
http://www.race-technology.com/description_8_956.html
http://www.g2xtreme.com/faq.htm
PDA Dyno exists:
http://www.nology.com/pdadyno.html
I by no means know enough about the hardware required, but there is a fast sampling time required for gps data logging. Googling the topic brings up plenty of discussion from SCCA forums.

i'd donate $20 for a comparable program like the iphone version

I got a reply from Traqmate:
We have jokingly spoken about doing an iPhone implementation. The
problem is that Traqmate uses a high-speed GPS chip chosen for speed and
the phones use a 1Hz chip that is chosen for sensitivity. Good idea but
I am afraid a phone would not make a very good Traqmate.

any good scientific calculator

Hello,
I have been searching for a good scientific calculator for mine kaiser for a long time, but no success. I am learning Match, and i need to calculate time to time complex things. I could do it on excel but to write formula there takes a lot of times and is not handy.
i know of 1-calc it's more for ekanomist, i need more options in calc...
Any ideas what i could try?
Thanks in advance...

SpaceTime is good.

I recommend PowerOne made by Infinity Softworks. www.infinitysw.com
I hope this helps.

Panoramic calc pro aint bad either, if someone knows for one that is more sofisticated...please suggest

Panoramic calc pro is great got every thing that geek like me could want
SpaceTime is more like Grafp drawer, but nice too.
powerOne doenst have WM version of scieentific calc
A the moment Panoramic calc pro is best for me, it got sprity advanced calc functions + will be easy to cheat at exams, jsut becosue can draw graph with it..
Thank you all for all support

HiCalc seems pretty good too.

Guys, which one of them is programmable (if any)? I mean defining own functions and so forth... Cheers

Another option would be VTI Pocket Emulator, which emulates TI calculators. I've got the TI89 and the TI83plus running at the moment for school. Should be able to define your own functions, etc.
http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=242194

Will have look at it, thanks...

Just came across this post yesterday and others while I was looking for a scientific calculator for my Kaiser, I've tried 1-calc, HiCalc and SpaceTime. HiCalc is by far the best of the three, has many useful features.

A little bit more then a scientific calculator, but PocketCAS is a freeware app that does symbolic algebra, calculus, and trig. Very nice app if you are taking high level math/science courses.

That's the perfect one

I like the HP15c have use HP's for so long can't use a non rpn calc.

Running program

Hello.
I was wondering about a running program for the HTC HD2? do you guys have anyone that you prefer?
http://www.rungps.net/wiki/DownloadsEN i so this in a other thread , is this any good?

i use SmartRunner on my blackstone, but had no time to test it on my leo... it starts fine, but did not test gps fuctionality.
You have all the info you need and even tracking and then uploading and showing in google maps

I use this prg for couple of years now. It is complicated but when you make all adjustments to mach your needs is very stable and it can give all the information you ever need almost at the medical level. I have even a HRM band and a arm band for htc hd and is amassing. I didn`t find anything like it anywhere. It is very expensive but is wort all the money if you train regulately. I highly recommend this prg (I don`t work for them an I don`t have any commercial interest connected by them). the only thing what i don't like to that program is graphics, it is made for qvga screens and even if is working fine in WVGA it is ugly.

What he said. Pretty ugly, but excellent performance. I haven't found any other app to match it, or even to come anywgere close.

theres also so sporty pal

I tryed sportpal, but i find it kind of dif to understand the program :S

Just to add to the list of programs, even if it's not aimed at runners, it could be well used to keep track of your movements, it's a program called NoniGPSPlot.

Sportypal difficult it's very easy to use, click on start and start running

Just wondering if there are any other apps out there, specifically apps that upload to the web your progress, example: Nokia Sports Tracker and RunKepper for iPhone

I'm with Sportypal on my phone, i just came back from skiing, it worked great, also have been using the running and cycling mode.
The option for goal is nice and on some versions there is even voice feedback.

[APP] auto-mate first showing of features

Hi all
I've been a member of XDA for a while (have a hero and been on the villanrom builds since they began). But I am a developer full time and so I have decided to start in Windows Phone 7. I know silverlight, I know .NET so why not.
I have started the company 'Infinite Monkey Theorem' and this is a showing of the first application.
auto-mate. This app allows you to record your cars stats at each fuel up and service to allow you to view statistics about your cars. This app will also allow you to setup service types (months or miles) and the app will schedule them for you taking into account your mileage per year. MOT and Tax renewals are stored and show when they are close.
The reason for this app is this: I drive 24,000 miles / year which means that I need to maintain the car more than just a yearly service, this app will tell me when I need to change my oil or have a minor/major service based upon the miles I drive per year and the miles I'm doing recently allowing me to budget for it accordingly.
This app syncs to the cloud so you can look over all the cars you are monitoring from your office and export the information or book a service.
This app is in beta at the moment, it is not feature complete as I need you to be able to say you have done your MOT or Tax but its almost there. Of course with it syncing to the cloud there is a cost, that I MUST pass on somehow. I looked into Ads but Microsoft in thier wisdom only allow thier ad framework in america so Im out (UK). But I'm thinking of a free version that has ads (in future) and does not sync to cloud. Thoughts on what you would/might pay for this app would be greatly appreciated.
The future of the app?
Well I am planning a pro version which is for business mileage and will export from the web site allowing business travellers to fill out expense forms. But there are lots to add to this app as well.
Take a look at the vid and let me know what you think.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tyw_ivcygk
Njoy.

id add light comercial vans upto 3.5tonnes as many courier use wm devices so many will upgrade to wp7

Love it and it looks superb. I dont know what you can and cannot do in regards to apps interacting with other features of the phone. But the option to put a reminder in the calendar or a pop up one month before the tax is due or service is due etc I think would be really beneficial (liked I said not sure if MS will let you do that though)
The only other thing I can think of is a field it enter a monetary value for the top up. So you put 44.66 litres in and it cost £70 for instance. You could maybe track this in the same way the MPG are, but as a Pence, or cent etc per mile.
In regards to price, there are alot of apps/games I have seen for say £2.99 that I refuse to pay for (bejwelled for one) but this I would pay for. Im not sure what price you were expecting but Id happily pay £2.99 for it which seems the average.
I know you have spoke about the cloud but is it possible to export the information to PDF or excel etc and then have the users email this to themselves, this would cut your costs but again I dont know whats allowed
Good Luck and I look forward to this being released.

4 or 5 euro isn't a bad prize .
if you could put in lpg and diesel blend (trucks that run on diesel and lpg ) then this app would be the hammer .
it would also be nice if you could ad your own car/truck .
lets say I have a scania R420 and I am driving on diesel and lpg , I would want to know if I am saving money .
normally a truck uses 32 litre of diesel every 100 KM
now it uses 22 litre of diesel and 10 litre of LPG
Diesel: costs 1 Euro
LPG: costs 0.50 Euro
it would be nice if your app could calculate my savings per 100 KM .
if you could make that happen you would have a winner .
Greetings Cees.

looks great! i would be willing to pay $5-7 for it without adds. I would also be willing to beta test for you as i am picking up a samsung focus on monday.
Keep up the good work, hopefully we will see this app in the market soon!

App showing in other games on my phone
I bought the app yesterday and couldn't find it. Today I noticed in other games. Should I uninstall and resync? I pinned to start for now.
thanks for what looks like a good app. Have another question. I have a csv file exported from a program I was using on my iphone. Any way of exporting or manually entering almost two years of data online vs the phone? You also mention website. Was is the url so I can check it out.
Thanks,
Johnny

Looks like a decent app but it also shows up in other gas for me

Thanks for comments
Hi all
Thanks for the comments, aint been on here in a while. Dont know why its showing in the games section, I've downloaded the trial and it shows in the normal menu, have purchase it and try it that way.
Answers:
1) Cost of fueling up will be coming in an update (not long)
2) Putting final touches to website then its live. it will be at www.infinitemonkeytheorem.co.uk You will be able to do everything you can do on the phone but see more information and view multiple car details over each other
3) Had to do some changes to the app to see the charts better, this is coming real soon.
4) will be adding fuel type soon.

You could try uninstaling and resyncing, as its all stored online you just re log back in.

One idea I have going is that as the data is stored online, I should be able to send a message to the phone when a service / mot /tax is due and the pic will go amber and show a 1.
The thing i'm working on right now is auto-mate (offline edition). The basic functionality of keeping track of your vehicle, store when your tax/mot is, and it will schedule the services for you, but all offline. becuase of the zero cost to me, it will be priced low. thinking £0.75...
Hope to have that out in a week.

Just checked and microsoft has put it under games, when I specifically said Tools and it was under tools originally.???
Nice one microsoft.
I could e-mail microsoft to change this but I'll just do an update which will fix it. Sorry for it being in the wrong place, not my fault.

Glad to hear. I just tried uninstall and reinstall and it didn't work. I hope I can enter my 2 years of data easily on the website. Can't see doing that on the phone. I could just get a new car and start over Those new 5.0 mustangs are nice. Add sync and I would be a happy camper

Prepare to be one happy camper, now im not saying now, im not saying in 1 week but excel import/export is always a step in the process

Just to let you know, an update was sent to microsoft over the weekend. This update will put the app back in the apps list. Include better charting, bug fixes. And ability to send error reports on some errors if they happen

Thanks for the update. Finally moved from under Games. When will the web site be up? I still haven't entered my previous data. Have been hoping to do it online and sync to phone.

Its in alpha now.... Beta next then live.

I just realized after putting in my second entry that I can't enter how much per tank or price per gallon. Any chance you will be adding this?

Yes, this is coming in an update.

Clicking on the historical button for miles/week shows the graph for MPG?
Also, whenever I enable the live tile, save the settings. The marker always goes back to disabled?
