I guess it is not what I am looking for. I would need a small application with ability to set path to application which would be run after shaking.

App will be on the board, soon

Whoopie.. Good news for you..
Even I was searching for this kinda app, but found no where. So I tried to code my self.
I will share the first version of this app within a week. This tool will allow to launch desired applications by shaking the device. I have coded to identify shaking device in 3 directions, viz. X,Y & Z (Horizontally, Vertically & front-back). You can assign applications to all these directions that too from left to right and right to left; same for other 2 directions. Thus total 6 actions can be set from this tool.
Do suggest some use cases / ideas to make it more useful.
Soon I will create a thread for this.
Cheers!

Hahah!
(You're kidding, right?)
Just install and start using it...
It's very easy to use...
I love it...
(Except for the typo's: Frends instead of Friends and Conn Manager instead of Comm Manager But that we can change!)
And there a some bugs. e.G. it often crashes when you are entering too much contacts for quickcall. But at least a nice piece of software.

Any help with getting rid of evaluation version plz ?
Doesn't matter, piece of crap IMHO.
Here maybe some info on the use of the software.
final release?
Hi,
Anyone know when the final release will be available?
Regards,
Joao
@Joao; this is not a beta version but a trial.
lol so if you like it buy it . warez kills developers who spend hours developing on our behalf
There is a 15 day trial period and i have had it for 2 days. I like it. it is great for 1 touch voice dial or starting applications. Looks like i will buy it. it is only $15 bucks.
The only thing i want to know, is it can be executed by default instead of device comming up in the Today screen. I have the new ATT tilt (kaiser).

I tried it had fatal exception errors and I wish they were able to get touchflo incorporated to it. that would be nice instead of assigning a button to start it.

yea seriously...how the hell did you do that?
Mine works...
Since I have Touch Commander installed on my card, I edited FTouchFloConfig.txt (txt file is in \Program Files\FTouchFlo on the device, not the card) to read:
DownUpApp:\Storage Card\Program Files\TouchCommander\TouchCommander.exe
DownUpAppCmdLine:
Then, soft reset device. Launch FTouchFlo. Manually launch Touch Commander to clear screen that asks for registration number, e.g. use it as a trial. Close Touch Commander.
Now, to make it work, I very lightly slide my finger on the Today Screen from the bottom to about a half inch from the top.
The sensitivity may have to be adjusted if it can be. Practice until you are used to it.
If I could get it to perform more consistently, I think this it is a great program. For now, I have remapped my PTT button to launch Touch Commander.
already been discussed !! and posted a CAB file which already had eFrost's touchFlo modified to it ..etc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342715
still gives error due to it being a trial ..etc ... but the commercial (buy ) application will work fine ... version 1.02 !!
Search is your friends !!

if you modify the pages one at a time and copy the files-appinf1.0.0, contactinf1.0.0, quickcalltree1.0.0, settings and thumbnalinf1.0.0 to another location and sofreset the device. then copy these files back to the folder and restart the program. modify a different page and repeat. this has the program working with all mods you have done i.e. contact pages, program links (with names and icon)etc..
worked for me.

HTC weather issue

I just installed HTC home plug in but my city Niceville, Fl is not on the weather list. Some people said I cannot add the city. Is this true? And How do I change from Celsius to Fahrenheit ?
Thanks guys
And How do I change from Celsius to Fahrenheit ?
• Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9
• Divide the answer by 5
• Add 32 to the answer.

Classic English humor
Celcius to Farenheit
When you are selecting a city, there should be a menu on the right soft key, click that then go to Weather Option...

I don't remember the syntax. I had to do the same thing. There is a way to list areas by zipcode in the XML file.
You can change your city by adding a program called Home Screen Customizer. It is free and works really well. But let me tell you. You are going to have further problems when you do that. I spent a week going around and around with P1tater, the only one here who Understands how to fix the weather "server" problem you will soon encounter. When you get the "unable to download content...." message, it is time to change your .dll file. Find the replacement .dll file here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1877192&postcount=2153
I never could figure out how to create it myself. This is where you go to supposedly figure it out:

Who developes the weather program for the HTC tytn ii and why cant we contact them and have them add our city for a small fee?
I've been using Weather Watcher by Singers Creations for year on my PC, and remembering that their software is free, I just stopped by to see if there is a mobile version -- there are two! One for PDA and one for smartphone.
http://www.singerscreations.com/AboutWeatherWatcherMobile.asp
FWIW, I've installed "Weather Watcher Mobile Pocket PC v1.0.8" for my HTC Tilt and it works well. I would prefer a smaller footprint, though.
All the info is in the many existing threads on this topic.
Best to look at those before adding another thread.. helps to keep all the Q&A's on a topic in the one place, which in turn makes it easier for people to find the answer to their questions...
My apologies. There's so much here way above my head that this is where I found myself after my head stopped spinning. Sorry again, folks. Will do better.

[Idea] Draw on air!

I know thats already in development Black Box that saves the position of the device. But i had this idea that is to record the movements of the phone like you where drawing on air and past the coordenates do a drawing...maibe in 3d if possible...
hmmm very interesting...but U will need program for 3D drawing and that isnt so easy...
Great idea!
This brings me to an other idea: Why not use gestures? For example if you draw an "O" (circle) in the air let the device open opera. That could be kind of handy, couldnt it?
Greetz
10 points to this idea
Good idea
very innovative idea =)
just stuck thinking of harry potter
it would be like us waving a wand (or a phone in this case) and summoning apps lol

Would be a great way to show off to people...
May be a bit more complex than just logging the acceleration...
Yes, funny idea.
Why not exploit BlackBox data with an algorithm eek which could translate some gesture sequences as a character sequence and display it in a text editor ?
A kind of transcrib...air
That would be awesome!
How abt a replicate of Logitech MX Air mouse.. You can sway your device in the air to control your windows media center..
Or perhaps a seismograph to measure earthquakes?
Oh wait.. im going nutz.. lol
is the accelerometer really that sensitive?
recall iphone people talking about it measuring speed in a car
but was horrible unprecise

This is very unlikely to work with just one accelorometer... how is it supposed to identify distances in space?
It can only detect changes of positions but not real movement. You will not be able to make this work properly with just one accelorometer...

Well, you can poll the sensor to get the acceleration at a certain point, and using this you can get the speed of the device, which will allow you to get the distance moved by the device over a certain period, and that lets you work out the relative positions.
This is the realization of this idea but in 2D...
Try it .... it's about fun and activity rather than artistic drawing...

Request/Ideas for Apps Go Here!!!!

It would be awesome if there was an application to use the MBW-150 bluetooth watch on the G1. Is anyone developing one?

[IDEA]A new contact app(2 preview screenshots)
Does anybody think the built-in contact app is not easy to use?
I'm working on a new contact app called aContact which provides a new UI to access to contact data and some more features.
So,anybody has any idea about this new app or found the disadvantages of the built-in contact app??
THANKS
I will post the scrrenshots after I finished the first version.
Thanks again for your advices!

There are two screenshots.Any advice?
The best contact manager I've used was the one built into SPB Mobile Shell for Winmo.

nice idea even though i dont mind the g1's contact app i know it can be better.
some things i think you should add:
-ability to view contacts in groups or categories
- if possible assign ringtones to group
- have the number/letter show up when scrolling like the icontact for wm
- integrate it so that when someone send you a number you can long press and add number to you contact manager or you can make it retrieve contacts through google.
- have birthday

Yes!I am strongly agree with you!
The built-in contact has no birthday records!

[REQ] Android App Ideas
hello android users,
I am a developer on the windows mobile side of things (see the M2DC thread for an example of my work) and I am thinking I might like to move over to developing for android.
I have a few problems, first, I don't have a device, this is not a huge deal at the moment because I can just use the SDK emulator for now, but I will be purchasing a device later on if I like developing for this platform. The second problem is that I need help with ideas for some simple apps... since I do not have a G1 to handle on a daily basis I don't really get the chance to feel things out and discover where an app might come in useful.
So my request is this. Does anyone have any ideas for "simple" android applications? Anything they wish the phone did better? Or a simple functionality that they wish the phone had? Reading through this forum it looks like there is a demand for OCR and possibly something to make applying new themes/skins easier? Or the TextTwist Game?
Of these 3 the game sounds the most interesting, the theme changer sounds good too because that is what my current development in windows mobile does, and the OCR is most likely out of my league at the moment.
I am open to any app ideas, I'm just looking for something to get me started and get me interested in the platform.
A few apps i would like to see as follows
1. A reboot option in shut down menu "if possible".
2. Digital Clock for homescreen
3. Screen Capture
4. Camera Zoom option
5. Checkers
Hope this helps a bit, good luck!
An application that kills tasks running in the background (although most folks say it's not possible right now), video recorder, night mode for camera, or Sirius/XM internet streamer similar to SiriusWM5 (I'm not sure that one is possible at the moment either...). Of course, you could create widgets (something more simple) but the source code won't be available to next year allegedly.
- Office suite (word and excel file editor)
- Youtube downloader from phone (like iphone mxtube)
- Super Mario Chronicles !!!!!
- FlightGear portable
- compiz fusion !! (not important but just tto test phone power to my friend that have an Iphone)
- More widget

You can view contacts in groups - Contacts - Menu - Display Group (created on GMAIL page).
Ringtones to groups would be nice, but for now you may just display a group and assign them all a ringtone
The long press to dial/save numbers in SMS has been addressed and should be in the final version of Android 1.0.
A birthday? Ehrmm.... Would personally prefer that to stay where it is (in my calendar).
I would like it to integrate the Dialer and searching for contacts, so i can just start typing a name or a number and it would show me the matching contacts. (I think SpellDial does this but is not very robust).
Thanks

Thank you very much for the input guys, I really appreciate it. These lists are definitely getting the creative juices flowing... I will see what I can put together.
If possible I will open source the beta version of my first program and post the beta packages here on xda for everyone to use without charge... I am still learning the whole process so we will see what happens in the end
Thank you for the suggestions, and I am still open to hearing more
I guess "simple" is also relative to your level of proficiency in Java and mobile development. As far as holes in the shipped operating system that could use fixing, there are many points to attack. Some could be done in the JVM, others would have to be done in native c. Examples include:
An office suite
Video recording
Touchscreen text input (API will expose this in 09Q1)
A simple but high-quality word or puzzle game would be great tho.
Edit: welcome aboard the Android side too ;-)

I agree with you 100%, the system stuff sounds good, but of the posted ideas and from what I have seen there is a small demand for "simple" games, and this is the direction I plan on going initially, games are fun to make and they should give me a decent overview of what is involved in throwing together an app.
As far as my java proficiency... I can definitely get by. I have a few websites that rely completely on the google web toolkit, and my bachelors degree was typical of an early 2008 CS curriculum, 2 years of java to learn what OO programming is, and then 2 years of C to learn about the fun stuff (pointers, threads, compilers, OS's, etc...). but like I said before I am just looking to make a traditional application, and I think that it is going to end up being a game of some sort,
I don't have a device yet, if I get one it would be pretty much a development only device, so I am trying to get my feet wet with an app or 2 before I decide to get one. I did manage to get a few minutes with a G1 today and I must say that the device feels so much better than my Titan, that capacitive touchscreen is awesome.
Once I get something going I will startup a new project on google code so I can take advantage of the free svn server and start posting my progress

Capacitive touch screens feel great and and quite responsive but they do have their caveats too. The main one is that accuracy of input is lower than with a stylus. You'll have to keep that in mind when you design the UI. You can scale the size of the emulator on screen to match an actual G1's physical screen size (emulated pixels might be mangled though).

Hi, I'm really new to wp8 development..
I'm working out to create wp8 app functioning like instaweather, able to take a photo and apply simple editing like words, numbers to the photo.. so are they any proper sample or tutorial for me?
In addition, I want it also to do some ability to drag the words/text on the screen while people taking photo so that they can put the text on their own wish.. got my point?
thank you for answer
