java.lang.Integer when trying to view the NPR Top Stories

Killan,
Can you post the feed URL you are having problems with. Are you having problems opening the feed or downloading the podcast?

I use to use this with my WM phone. But with the g1, I use greed because its linked with my Google reader feeds. Its all about unity with Android.

BeyondPod 1.0.28 BETA is available
Here is what is new in this release:
* Fixed the issue where BeyondPod would show "java.lang.integer" error
in the feed content view or crash on opening the settings screen.
* Fixed an issue with scheduling where BeyondPod would stop the update
schedule after a device reboot
* Fixed an issue where the feed progress bar remains visible after
switching from the Feed Content view to the feeds view.
* Added more graceful handling of storage card removal and insertion
while BeyondPod is running. This also affects the case when you mount/
dismount the storage card using the USB connection
* Fixed an issue that sometimes would cause a crash in the Feed
Content View

* Added support for password protected feeds. Now you can add user name/password in the feed properties.
* There is an option to change the color of the item titles in the feed Content view (used to be Orange). The option is located in the global settings.
* Fixed an issue with the Scheduling where it did not set correctly the start time of the schedule if the repeat interval was set to hours
Beta can be downloaded from http://www.beyondpod.mobi/android

Can anyone give me some insight on how to incorporate google reader? I'be got all my feeds there and would like to just use those.

Well, then extended controls is still an awesome customization and doesn't require root as far as I know.

Droidg, all the emulators, and the bittorrent apps. Those are all going to be used illegally.

As XDA does not condone warez, the apps detailing how to use torrents or get free music have been removed. Thank you.

How can you automatically assume someone is going to download stuff illegally. There is plenty of free stuff that can be used with those programs. . . if they are so illegal then why doesn't Google ban them from the market!

I don't condone warez either . . . maybe you are unaware of the legitimate uses for torrents.

feed me
feed me has been temporarily removed from the marketplace. I hope to get a new version out towards the end of the first quarter of 2012.
Details: http://www.wpcentral.com/feed-me-removed-marketplace
Full details: www.forty3degrees.com/apps/feedme
When I first got my HTC Mozart I looked for an rss reader but couldn't find one that suited. RSS Central from Adam Dawes came close, but still didn't quite have the structure I was looking for. I always like to look at my subscriptions in groups. If I am tracking two or three blogs related to the same thing then I don't want to have to look at all three seperately. I just want to look at the newest entries from all of them together. So I got to work, and feed me is the result.
Please give feedback about any missing features or possible improvements.
There is currently no video of version 1.11 as I am spending all my spare time getting a mango version up and running.
Here's a video of Version 1.11:

Calum you are a legend, looks great.
just a quick update...
I'm on holiday for a week and am doing the last few bits for the next update... Just got the last bits of live tiles to go, then the tests and it's done.
For the live tiles I will show the total number of new items since the last time the app was open (like the stock e-mail app). You will be able to select which feeds are used for live tiles, so certain feeds with frequent updates can be excluded.
This won't work for backdated items. For example, BBC likes to post items that are backdated to yesterday, these will not be seen as new as the publish date is older than the date of the last refresh.
Feeds included in the live tiles update will always be updated on startup.
Let me know what you think.
I have also set up a page on facebook. And you can follow progress on twitter.
So I've finished the next update... here are a few of the new features:
A live tile showing the number of new items. This is restricted to showing the total of a maximum of 5 feeds at the moment (or 1 in trial mode). I hope to increase or remove this limit but I want to see how the server handles things first. The tile can be updated in 10, 15, 30 or 60 minute intervals.
You can now add a feed from your google reader subscriptions. They are shown in a flat list similar to the feed search in the current version.
I now check the http headers for feeds before downloading. If the 'last-modified' header is present and the feed has not changed then the download is cancelled.
I added a pivot to the start page. Now you can swipe from the list of feed groups to a list of all the new items (these are grouped for easy browsing).
There is a backup and restore function for the feed settings. This backs up the settings to a SQL server so you can restore even after a factory reset. In this version an anonymous device ID is used so you don't need to log in.
I have also improved caching and done quite a bit of work on performance. The limits for the trial version have been increased to 4 groups of max. 4 feeds.
Unfortunately I have had to do away with backwards compatibility for the settings. This means that all settings in the previous version will be lost. I really didn't want this, but due to the live tile implementation, backup and cache management I had to change the storage format for the settings. The main problem is that it is impossible for me to simulate an upgrade as a developer so I couldn't event try to implement a settings upgrade. This is quite annoying and I hope microsoft will do something about it, but at the moment all I could do was add the google reader support mentioned above, and ensure this never happens again due to the new backup/restore feature.
This only really affects the few paid versions out there (unfortunately, or fortunately in this case the actual number is pretty small). Trial versions won't update so you need to uninstall it before installing the new version - this is another microsoft 'feature'.
I will post a full list of changes on the forty3degrees.com website after the update hits the market. This should be towards the end of next week. I have decided to run the final build on my phone for the weekend as there is not point in submitting tonight (nobody will start testing it until monday morning anyway), and you never know... there may just be a bug or two still lurking
V1.2 just got published... a load of improvements and new features.
Check out forty3degrees.com for all the details.
Just submitted the next version. A few bug fixes but a nice new 'tweet article' feature as well. The new version supports all the European and Middle Eastern encodings I could find (I will post the full list as soon as the app is certified)
Feed me version 1.3 has been published to the marketplace. This version has Twitter integration, improved encoding support and a few fixes. See the site for details:
http://www.forty3degrees.com/apps/feedme
Hey i've been trying out your app for a day or two now, seems to work great so far. If its something i find myself using often, I'll be sure to buy it (first time using an RSS reader, so I don't know how useful it will be for me). Also, I'll let you know if I notice anything/have any suggestions
Thanks for the feedback. Feel free to pm me if you have any questions/ideas.

Great app man! Thanks!

Glad you like it I'm always looking to improve things, so any constructive criticism is welcome...
Version 1.4 is out.
- Podcast support
- Instapaper/Read it later
- Run under the lockscreen
Details here
Nice looking app. With the podcasts, can they be downloaded to be listened to later or do they have to stream? I like being able to download several episodes via WiFi and then listen to them even if I have no data connection or if I have a bad connection.
Thanks
Just streaming in this version... I did think of doing a download, but it didn't make the deadline
I will add this to my todo list, and it will almost certainly make it into the next version. I just need to sort out the cache management for the downloaded media, or see if I can add them to the media library. Would you want the media to be available in the media library, or just in the app?
On a related note, I wasn't really sure if I should add the viewed media to the media player history. In the end I decided against it. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the feedback.
Calum
I don't really need it to show anywhere other than from withing the app. I have been doing podcasts through Zune right now and one thing that I don't like is that once I listen to a podcast it just sits there. It gets marked as listened to within Zune and I can delete it, but I kind of like having them just go away. This might be good as a user setting.

Yeah, I thought that too. I prefer them to disappear as well, and this happened to be easier to implement as there are extra certification requirements if I add them to the history.
I think I'll go with the setting for V1.5 with no history as the default. Thanks again for the feedback.
Thanks a lot for the app calum. It's really fast and nice. Especially the animations and such. I haven't seen one (and I've tried them all and still use Flux) and this one gets it about perfect as for look and feel. One thing I have seen that I'm not sure you could have implemented is a tile view for articles, showing them as an image. That's the one thing I really like about flux (as you've already got the other best part..categores), is the overall look when you go into it. Don't want to make you a copycat, just that one option would be great. Or at least an "HTML view" like Feedreader has. That gives the app that last piece of visual appeal. As the rest of it is perfect. Thanks once again as for right now you make it tough for me to choose between this and Flux.
Hi,
thanks for the feedback. I did think about switching to a panorama with images for the main page, although I would add a setting to allow the current main page to be used instead. Good to know that somebody would like this sort of view
Adding images to the article lists would slow things down too much. Scrolling performance would be pretty bad with more that 50 items. (I still don't have NoDo so don't know if it's any better with that...)
I am working on an update for this week, but it will not change the UI much (maybe a new transition for the main page... don't know yet). The main improvements will be podcast downloads and hopefully facebook integration (time permitting - the update needs to be submitted this week to try a fix a marketplace search bug... feed me doesn't turn up at the moment).
Thanks again for the feedback
Calum
Yep, someone does want it (tile view) as that is one thing that stands out about the rss readers on WP7. Flux has seemed to integrate it quite nicely and I believe it's achieved because it has an option to automatically load more items or not. And it only loads 6 tiles initially to keep scrolling smooth for the most part. I like the main page as it is, and having a tiled view of what's new on to the side of that would be cool also. Well, looking forward to any updates for sure and good luck with continued development.
feed me 1.5 is out.
You can now download podcasts. You can also pause the downloads and resume them later (they are paused automatically when exiting the app).
I also added some new animation for the page transitions. I'd be really interested in any feedback as to whether it still keeps the clean look... if not then you can disable them in the settings.

[Preview Alpha 3] OpenOS - An "OS" Made in PowerPoint

I got bored, so I started to make this cool but useless "OS" in PowerPoint. I'm fairly new at VBA, but I'm learning a bunch while doing this, so it's great for me to learn from and enjoy making this. I'm using sounds from KDE 3.5 because they're awesome.
I figured out a way to store data in your temporary (%temp%) folder and retrieve it with a code I've written. I used this to store and retrieve settings for the OS, and will use it to make a "virtual drive" where you can store your own things (within the capability of VBA, of course).
You might need Office 2010 to run this properly since VBA 7 has a bit of a different structure compared to VBA 6. I don't know, tell me what you think of it.
Current version: Preview Alpha 3
This is a major update!
Change Log:
* Completed log in/log off/shutdown/restart system.
* Completed settings panel (except for maximized window).
* Completed background changing system.
* Started on start menu.
* Removed user changeable log in background.
* Cleaned codes
Features:
* Basic and semi-advanced functions performed with VBA.
* A working storage system (will be used to implement the virtual drive).
* Customizable settings such as username, password, user profile icon, and desktop background.
* Amazing boot process!
* Working log in/log off/shutdown/restart system.
* Disabled clicking on things that you should not click, preventing unwanted actions.
To-Do:
* Finish desktop.
* "Virtual drive" which will be used to save your own documents.
* Make text editor that actually saves.
* Make web browser.

That's pretty cool xD
Really interesting. But i faced a run time error at the login screen.
Pretty awesome. I'm gonna wait for it to be a little more full featured and stable but once it is Ill definitely give it a try.
Okay, I started coding for the future "virtual drive" and cleaned the codes a bit. I implemented the codes to reset the settings and "format" the virtual drive, but they are not available for use just yet since I didn't make a settings panel. I also changed the file format to presentation so you don't need to open then play it. Download it in the OP.
Hopefully I can work on it tomorrow, and post a few screenshots and virus scan for those skeptical about the file.

[APP][4.2+][Beta] Pure Reader - An Offline Rss Reader

Hi guys,
Being an avid news/Rss reader, I was annoyed by the limitations setup by popular apps(Feedly, Flipboard, etc). So, I started developing this app for myself initially and it came out really good. So, thinking of sharing it with you guys
Pure Rss Reader is a simple RSS Reader with following features:
- Offline reading : Save feeds to the device to be able to access them when you are not connected to the network.
- Periodic sync intervals : Specify how frequently the app should refresh all the feeds.
- Download full articles from website along with the feeds. Currently, only the HTML content is displayed.
- layouts optimized for phone(Card, List) and Tablet(FlipView, ViewPager)
- Variable Image quality(offline) : You can specify the image quality that sshould be saved to the SdCard. This helps reduce the space taken by the app
- Sharing articles to your favorite app
- Multiple fonts
- Clean up : You can specify how frequently a cleanup should be performed to clear the offline articles. Use this feature to optimize the content on your SdCard
- Save feed images to SD card
Future releases
- Opml import/export
- Optimized layouts
- dark theme
- Feedly sync(tentative)
Screenshots are available on the play store.
Go to play store to download
The app is currently in beta stage and it contains ads. If you want to test the app, please join the beta program at this url https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.udn4hc.purerss
You can search for the app in play store with the term - udn4hc . This app has in-app purchasing to remove ads, which can be overcome by becoming a License tester(I need to add your email addresses manually. So, please PM me your gmail ID).
After you become a License tester, open the left drawer and click "Purchase Premium". On the payment page, you should see a message stating that you won't be charged for the transaction. It generally takes a couple hours for google to process the tester status.
Known Issues
- A couple of default feeds provided need to be updated
I look forward to the feedback guys
Reserved!
Thanks for sharing. Does it sync with Feedly? To me that is a must have, I use gReader on my phone and Feedly on the desktop, cross-platform sync is essential.

Feedly sync is a work in progress. Am having trouble getting a production key for my app from them at the moment. I plan to release the app once I have it.

[APP][4.2+]Pure Rss - Offline Rss Reader(Out of Beta)

Being an avid news reader, I really missed the good old Google reader when it shut down. After that, a couple of services like Feedly, FlipBoard popped up...but I didn't like the curation done by them. Feedly is an awesome service...but its UI has become really old and no longer interesting.
I prefer my news only from a couple of websites and don't want any curation. In my opinion, an Rss reader should be lite and offer a complete offline support -- I hate turning my phone to a brick when the network goes off.
So I started off on this project initially for my personal use, but decided to release it for public use. It is adfree and I don't hold any backend servers to serve the feeds. This app grabs the feeds directly from the websites you subscribe to and save them on your device. I have provided a couple of default feeds, but you can add your own feeds as well. OPML import available too.
This app has come out really well so far and now, I can use some feedback from the XDA community to perfect it Please let me know how I can improve the app further.
Note on Feedly Support Feedly support is done, but the developers at feedly have closed down support for new apps. I will enable that as soon as I get a response from them here https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/feedly-cloud/6OHPVevlnRM. If you have a developer token and would like to use that feature, let me know and I will push an update with limited feedly functionality(250 api calls per day, manually refresh your token every 30 days).
I am currently working on having support for NewsBlur service here.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.udn4hc.purerss
To list out a few features in the app -
- Complete offline support
- flip scrollng - similar to flipboard
- pager scrolling - similar to feedly
- standard Android scrolling with lists and cards
- Custom sync/cleanup
- Alternate Themes - 11 currently, including a dark theme
- Material Design
- OPML Import
- Add Custom feeds
- 6 fonts available
- Readability mode - Save full articles from websites(this is in beta and hence, the option is slightly hidden)
