Kaiser support for Device Update.

Hi all,
After finishing off v2 of Device Update for the Hermes, I'm looking at making it more compatible with other devices. The next on my list is the Kaiser
Could I get a few people to message me to try a new version of Device Update that should work correctly (and not show Hermes only apps) on the Kaiser.
For those wondering what Device Update is, check out:

and
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470440
Thanks.
EDIT: I've had someone test it on Kaiser and all should be well...
That being said, I've attached v2.0.7.8 to this post for all of you to test

Havent heard of it till now, but looks great. Bring it on! (to the kaiser I mean )
Also what makes this much different than App2Date? (asking because I know someone will at some point)

Lots.
#1 - I do the hosting for your apps. I've served nearly 800 apps in the last 6 hours or so.
#2 - People can browse the index of software.
#3 - Automatic updates is only a side effect - but a major bonus.
#4 - Custom written geo-location based mirroring gives the user the fastest speeds no matter where they are on the planet
#5 - everything between the servers & clients is compressed - this means faster transfers and less data transfer.
And there's probably more

So when is this going to be avail?????

Nice one mate.
Count me in for a bit of testing
Feel free to shout me for anything you need.
Thanks

Mate! I didn't know you had a Kaiser...
The build is just about ready, I'm just putting some final touches on it today. I should have something for you guys in about 5 hours or so...
I'll send you both a build via PM to test...

I am more than interested in testing this! Awesome work, friend.

I'm here if you need another tester

For those interested, I've attached a copy of v2.0.7.8 as a beta test on the Kaiser.
In theory all should work. If not, please reply to this thread.
Thanks

Awesome - good to hear.
I'm in the middle of writing some documents for ROM cooks and developers on how everything works within DU so it can be included in peoples ROMs and also how people can make their CABs DU compatible...
Hopefully I'll be able to get something finalised real soon. DU has pretty much become standard in all ROMs for Hermes

works like a champ on my tilt....Great job on this app! Does this also tell what you already have installed and can update that?

Yes and no. All packages installed via DeviceUpdate will show if an update is available. You will see this as a category up the top labeled "Available Updates". We don't however have a way of tracking if an application is installed from another source - as we use registry entries to track packages.
This means it is possible to see an app on the Device Update index that is already installed from a different source. At the moment, we leave this up to the user to detect.

thanks for the response. You did a great job on this app!

Only thing i cant figure out is where the themes go when i download them...or are they not m2d themes? Only one i downloaded was the flat black theme and for the life of me i cant find it. I just got it to test that it worked as well. Ive already got over 20 themes so i dont need it But i even used the search on the phone and cant find it.

The themes are standard Windows Mobile themes - not M2D themes.

Ok cool. Im sure thats why it didnt work then. So i cant find any bugs. Great job. If you want you can pull the themes from my 4shared folder. They are all m2d

Fantastic application.
I was using this in my HTC Touch (ELF) before.
I just bought a Kaiser (TYTN II) and installed the latest Device Update into it.
Tried installing "HTC Home Customizer" and a few other apps but evertime get a error "WCELoad Returned Code: 2147024891".
What is this error code and how can i fix it and let Device Update install apps in my Kaiser.

Sherpa App from MyTouch 3G

any way of getting this app / .apk to have it on our G1
looks pretty neat.
video can be found on engadget review of the MyTouch 3G

since the mytouch can't be rooted yet, probably not. I bet sherpa is going to be a protected app.

i bet we have this app in the next week because we have the best modders and developers here . The only way this app wont work is if it needs some sort of code and needs to talk to a server.... but i doubt it.

The App Isn't Out, I Believe Its Gonna Be In The Market, Because Everyone That Has The Phone Already Doesn't Have The App On The Phone, And It Said It Would Be Launched The Same Time As The Phone

a quick online search. and you can have the app on your G1.
its a neat idea..but kinda useless, all it does is search near you for food,movies,cafe's and such, same thing you can do with all other type of apps.

All right thanks. I couldn't install it. Says package not properly signed...To the person who said they were able to install it, could you pull it out and post an apk on rapidshare or something? Thanks

To fix the signing problem; simple folks
Uninstall the Sherpa you have and install from the market... looks like something to do with the signing and the same version number but a different signed key.

well i installed it like last week if u want i can upload the .apk

Did it for me.

Also, it's definitely faster.

uninstalling the old version worked, thanks alot, the market version does seem faster on the start up than the previous leaked ver.

Its exactly the same one I posted last week

New swype beta

Does anyone know if the new swype beta is compatable with the eris? Trying to find it for my wife and have had no luck.
Sent from my Rooted Incredible using Tapatalk

I found this over on the android forums.
This should work for you.
It has been working for me with Sense-able Rom 3.1

Thanks for the upload, worked like a charm.

says it is expired on my phone, anyone having this issue?

I couldn't tell you, sorry, worked great for my wife she's using the rom Droid does Pink based on Senseable 3.1.

Found a new one here on XDA I have tested it and it is working.
it can be found... showthread.php?p=6787995
I have also uploaded it

Hey guys I'm really having a hard time making double letters in this new version, it just doesn't seem to work. Old one worked fine before it expired. Any ideas??

I just tried some words with double letters and like Vince its not working well.
after playing around with it for a few found that it seems like the program is not tracking correctly. I have tried the Speed VS Accuracy and it didn't help much if any. I my have to give shapewriter a shot.

So, what you need to do is go into your settings>Language & Keyboard and make sure the box next to Swype is checked. If there is no box there, then the install did not work right. Once you have the box checked, then go into a program that you would be able to type something (text, email, browser, etc) and long press in the box you want to type in. It will come up with some options like copy/paste/input selection. You'll want to choose input selection and then you should be able to choose Swype as your go to keyboard. Hope this helps...

Just thought I'd pop in here and say that if you go to beta.swype.com, you can get into the public beta for the next couple days. This'll let you get the actual current updates.

It's because they haven't released it yet. They have several BETA versions that they're testing. This is why you can't find it on the market. There is ONE version out there with a license that won't give you a "trial period ended" error, but few have it. This is for testing purposes, though it may be annoying for you and others, this is what will make it such great app, extensive testing. It should be soon...looks like they've almost got it nailed down.
FWIW, none of us are even supposed to have this app...be thankful you've gotten to play with it.

I have swype with a license that won't expire. I downloaded it from another thread in the eris forums. Awesome app.

Sometimes there's an error retrieving the status of just a single country's status. Refreshing the whole thing just to refresh that seems like a burden on your server to me. Maybe have a little refresh icon next to each country in the list that refreshes the status only for that country? Just a suggestion.
Good job though, thanks!

Nice

This in nice.
Also a feature to add a number of seconds/minutes to automatically refresh. ( most of us know how to do it but a suggestion is a suggestion! )
Also a "notify me" when availiable thingy might be nice. Not with e-mails or anything like that....with rss or a sound maybe?
P.S. Saw this website 2-3 days ago. Love it

One thing that comes to mind is a direct link to the device in the Play Store. Or maybe it does this when one is actually in stock?

Thanks ! I just wish that it showed that the nexus was in stock. I now know that I can not buy it anywhere in the world.

There's already a mailer set up for 5 emails , but it uses php function's send() which works REALLY slow on my server and it would be useless with more than 10 emails. I'm looking for other solutions anyway. Thanks for the tip.

A direct link could be very easy to implement but useless as you need to be under the country's IP to view it, and relying on web proxy to link it seems not praticable to me.
EDIT: please advise this as Newsworthy thread (if you wish)!

Updated with "Sort by country" option : http://ludalex.soupwhale.com/n4checker/ - hope you'll find it useful.

Could you perhaps color the availability status? Green for In Stock and Red for Out of Stock?
Makes it easier to see when further away.
Thanks
EDIT: Perhaps you could create direct links to the Items as well.

Wow brother its nice, BTW when i clicks on main refresh button it shows me one result but when i click on specific country refresh button it shows me different result..why so ?

So does this auto refresh or is this just an easy way for us to click the refresh button and check?

Thanks, but how is this better than going to https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_4_16gb

It happens when you switch country/device too fast, not giving the time to the previous selection to load.

Its possible the phones will go on sale again by region Australia then Europe then USA /Canada based on timezones. In this case it would give some advanced warning.
Some people are trying to buy out with their own country this means they don't need to have proxy etc set up all the time.

resolution problems in gaming when flashing a new ROM

Can anyone help me please? I have a Galaxy tab S2 9.7in SM-T810 model and when I flashed a new rom on it, I no longer have any control over the resolution resulting in me not being able to play any games without them being super slow, is there any fix or work around that anyone has? I've tried googling but I couldn't find anything related to us, tried different apps used for other devices but they have failed, any help would be greatly appreciated. (I'm new btw got this tablet brand new for $240 and trying to do some different things with it, also the ROM I currently have is AOKP N)
