Droidsense, not working, help me troubleshoot! - G1 Apps and Games

I have been wanting to use Droidsense for about a week now but it does not work for me. The author seemed excited to fix it, but his fixes all involved me installing all of his other apps, which either required windows (im a linux user) and still didnt work for me on a windows computer.
I know other users are having similar problems based on market comments, so maybe we can find something in common with the failures and narrow it down.
If you have used Droidsense and gotten it to work (anything besides #4 authorization error) or if it fails, please tell me which and some info about your account.
Example, does your username contain all letters, all numbers, is it gmail etc. Does your password contain all numbers/letters, a mixture etc? Password / username length? Obviously dont give out actual email addresses or anything, just general info.
I have 8 letters, 3 numbers in my email, its a gmail.com address and my password was 7 letters and 2 numbers. I have since tried a password with al letters (8 lowercase letters) and it still did not work. I have tried wifi, edge, 3g and hspda and I have made sure I can connect to other ssl sites and programs (paypal, bank apps).
Also if you can think of some
thign else that would cause some to be able to login, but others not please chime in.

Hi Darkrift
I'm the developer of DroidSense.
I continue to search why it doesn't work for some accounts.
If you want to help me, I can send you a small "documentation" to help me to find the problem. Send me a private message with your email address and I'll send you this doc. Or send me an email via my email in the market.
It work for lot of people but I don't know why that doesn't work for someone like you.
Regards
Nicolas

Ho, I read your post to fast...
You are the guy who I sent the doc...
I wait to find another guy who have the problem and running windows to try to fix the problem.
If someone in this forum have login problem with DroidSense, please contact me to help me to fix that problem.

If you want to debug you need to do it properly, not just hit and miss guessing.
Grab a copy of ADB, there is compiled copies about for lin/win/mac if you can't find anything and run a 64bit ver of lin I can give you a copy that I built.
Using ADB you can run 'adb logcat' to get a dump of the system output and more importantly any exceptions that occur that aren't caught you can get a full dump. There is a lot more you can do with ADB, but that's a big start.

delta_foxtrot2 , you are right, the next Lite version I'll publish will be debuggable with informations in the logcat.
I'll try to publish the update this week.
Regards
Nicolas

Kaiser - TyTN II - GoodLink ver 5

I have not found any threads regarding this so I went ahead and bit the bullet and tried on my GoodLink server. Initially disappointed because my server was setup to send the last ver 4 GoodLink software to the Kaiser. After upgrading then to ver 5 the phone portion of the device would not work no matter what I did. GoodLink seemed to work but the phone wouldn't. I then uninstalled GoodLink via the remove programs (now GoodLink does not require hard reset to get rid of it).
I waited 24 hours (chicken). I then made sure that ver 5 was pushed to the device initially - viola - seems to work great now after 24 hours. No slowing of the device as was the case with other lesser devices (memory and processor speed!).
So far I believe that for those who want GoodLink and PPC the Kaiser may be the best device so far! I'll keep you updated as to any glitches that come up. I fully recognize that with some of the improvements to Pocket Outlook and with always on active sync GoodLink is not as needed as it was before but there are still some "closer to desktop Outlook" advantages for business users.

So - I binned Goodlink some time ago on the Co HP device and opted for a phone the performance was so bad. Based on your recommendation I might try it again. Where can I get the latest CAB? Will my old account registration work on the TyTN - or do I have to go back to the IS dept for another "key" to get setup?
Thx
Graham
The IT dept has to enable the version 5 for your device. In my case I have my own GoodLink server and I tried to install via a cab file and it didn't work for some reason. So I went back to the OTA setup. Just call the IT dept and ask them to enable the version 5 for your device (that is assuming they have upgraded their server yet) and resend you a PIN email. It is three or four mouse clicks so don't let them act like it is much trouble!
If you don't get ver 5 right off the bat then uninstall it don;t go any further because it didn;t work for me to "upgrade" ver 4 to 5!
how much better is it than 4.93? i find it a little buggy and i still need to activesync my calendar and contacts for other Hpone related items.
Goodlink
Goodlink 4.9.3.21 works like a charm, syncs mail, calendar, notes, tasks, the works and it's fast too. Not sure why yours would be 'buggy'; mine works like a charm without failure.

There are definitely some improvements with ver 5 -- one thing to know (I have another post somewhere else) is that you need to prepare for the fact that there is integration with the native contact list and GoodLink. In other words if you still use Active Sync (like via a server) you will get duplicate contacts. The IT person for the GoodLink server has a setting to choose what parts of you contact list will get sync'd with the native contact list for "use with voice dialing" etc (as per GoodLink's literature), i.e, Last, First, work, home, fax, email. Once you figure out what is going on it is actually better because the native contact list takes up less space because you can pick and choose (the IT GoodLink admin guy) what is sync'd.
All the while the GoodLink Calendar list , of course, gets fully sync's as it is designed to do.
[Interestingly with vers 5 server and ver 5 on the device the GoodLink admin person can actually "dis-allow" the use of any particular application on your device. Every program you have on your device shows up on the GoodLink Mangemenet Console. It's pretty cool -- that is if you have access to the server!!!]
If you have question just ask and I'll try to answer them since I have my own server
PS as far as the duplicate contact thing you need to use PPContactsMgr and delete ALL of your native contacts, then tell active sync NOT to sync contacts and then let GoodLink do its thing as far as syncing the selected fields of you native contact list.
PSS I really like using GoodLink so far -- with it's limited syncing of the native contacts list which then work NICELY with PocketCM to make calls text msgs etc

i dont have access to the server. so that means my IT can see ALL the apps that areon my device and control what I can / cannot use?

Iten I was browsing sure does. I was really surprised when I was browsing my new management console for ver 5 and click on a tab that took a minute or two to respond (I didn't know at the time but it was retrieving from my device) and then showed my applications on my device and gave options for which to allow and which to disallow!!
I didn't want to mess anything up so I didn't experiment.

I tried the OTA setup and it gave me version 6(!).. Needless to say my old PIN wasn't valid - and the IT dept wouldn't enable it for me. They said "can't use none approved devices on Company networks".. so I can't use my TyTNII with Goodlink. I think the PIN was for v5.. but I don't see how to get the v5 CAB

Is it possible...

I may be shooting myself in the foot for asking this, but is there a way to transfer programs/Apps from one PPC (iPAQ 4355) to another (HTC Kaiser) without having the .exe files?
There are a few on my old PPC that I still like to use, but don't want to have to re-buy again.
For most, there's no need to buy again. Download the installer, pump in your serial number, and it'll run just fine. The only exception to this I can think of on my phone is Voice Command, which does require the licensed installer app.

Care to elaborate? How do I go about getting the downloader? Some of these apps I have had for a while, so it would be hard (if not impossible) to get the serial #'s
Thanks
If the version hasn't changed, it's pretty much hit the manufacturer's web page, download, and run.
The serial numbers would be your issue, though. If you don't have those and your app doesn't display it in "Help-About," the registration page, or some place similar, you'd need to have it archived somewhere. I'm an e-mail packrat so I've got mine going back years. Some manufacturers will e-mail you your serial numbers if you ask support, though. Recovery from hard resets or replacement phones.
If you can't find them somehow, you have to figure out what directories and registry hives to backup, back them up, move them over, and hope that it works.
I read somewhere of a program to move all softwares from one device to another without installing, but i didn't downloaded it then. Now I dont even remember the name for it. Sorry. But you try searching it, if u get it pls let us know. I'll do the same. Thanx.

IT Pros Needed to Test Mobile Monitor Application

I have a new project I'm working on for an application that allows me to do quick checks on server availability from my AT&T Tilt. This is the first version of the software and I'm looking for suggestions on improvements, bugs, etc. The software has been tested on Windows Mobile 5, 6, and 6.1. More information available at http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/am2008f.htm
The application is available in a PC Installer version as well as a CAB file and is posted at:
http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/AlertMe2008FWE.zip (PC Installer)
and
http://www.liquidcaffeine.net/downloads/AlertMe2008FWE.CAB (The CAB installer also requires the OpenNETCF to be installed as well (http://www.opennetcf.com)
Point release update includes:
o Log Viewer Tab (see new screen capture)
o Option to email log (note - this requires Pocket Outlook to be configured with an account)
Please post any suggestions you may have.
Looks good I'll have a look at it and test it our servers.
Thanks

Yea looks really promising I'll give it a shot too. Something to do in my meetings.
its nice to see apps that cater to webmasters.. something ppc's lack. im *trying* to cook some sftp+ssh app myself.
i think a cool feature in your app would be to schedule automatic checks on the site ever X minute with status/log info. perhaps even an audio/visual alert option that notifies you when it's offline.
i see this checks for http, but does it check for the right http 200 code? reason i ask, is sometimes a website http can be "online" but throwing out http error, which should report back as "offline/problem"

Initially this was meant to be a scheduled application. This release was to test viability. As soon as I can dig up the details on how to schedule the application, I'll release the point release with this feature.
I'll look at adding the parsing of the response to check for the 200 code. There is a log file that gets generated, and I will be adding a menu function to both view and email the log.

Gotta love Windows Permission settings - ugh. The downloads shoudl be working now.
Point release Available
The new version allows for viewing of the log file more than anything else. Also, both the CAB and PC installers include the required OpenNETCF CAB, so things are cleaner on the install.
The emailing of the log file requires a Pocket Outlook account to be setup. I have only tested this with an Exchange server setup, so anyone running IMAP/POP/etc, let me know if it works. It should default to the first email setting in POutlook.
Next version should hopefully have the scheduling ability.
You said you're working on implementing a periodical checker.
Good. Better yet is SMS on error, or E-Mail on error (or both.) and option to play audible alert.
That way you could SMS yourself to grab your attention, or just use the built-in feature to play a sound. You could also have it E-Mail someone in your organization or perhaps your data center (with a predefinable template no doubt!) that the server is off line.
I work at a datacenter as a sysadmin, and I do think these features could go to good use.

Yep. As soon as I get the scheduling piece down, then the fun begins. At that point, failures will be alerted via a choice of alarms (siren type MP3s requested <G>), vibration & SMS/MMS/Email.
I also want to do as the poster above suggested and actually parse the results for other, discrete errors (ie: Web server is online, but a 404 is received).
Also, if possible, color coding the log as well.
SQL Server CE or XML?
Got the scheduling portion down and now have a question for folks who would use the app.
Which would you prefer, the use of SQL Server CF or just a local XML file to store the list of servers and ports to scan?
I can see benefits of both, but would like your feedback.
I'm downloading it right now and will give it a try. As a Linux system administrator, I would urge you to avoid using a vendor specific file format for anything. Go with xml. Any administrator who can't deal with that should seek a new line of work, anyway.

Ah-hem, What ROM are you using, You might try to update to the newest NetCF
Apparently, The CAB installer also requires the OpenNETCF to be installed as well (http://www.opennetcf.com)
I tracked down the package I needed from Microsoft and now AlertMe is working. It seems a small but useful tool, though definitely not a replacement for Nagios.
The immediate thing I noticed is it doesn't remember the checkboxes selected when you pick the domain/ip from the history. That would be a nice little feature.
Looks nice. I haven't downloaded it yet, but on the second screenshot tab can you add a "custom" option to put in a port that isn't listed?

I'm adding a scheduling feature at the moment that will allow for the system to run at defined to monitor selected ports.

Duh - don't know why I didn't think of that. It will be added to the next release. I'm fighting off a bout of bronchitis at the moment, but hopefully the next release will be in a week or so and include this along with the scheduling.

XML is the easier way to go. This should also allow you to bull the "jobs.xml" over to a PC for easier editing. Then push it back to the device.
did you foillow up with more developements such scheduling and alerts?

[APP] - FindYourLaptop - A simple solution to finding a lost or stolen laptop

Hello Everyone,
I recently bought an EEE PC as a second computer and seeing as it's about the most easily lost or stolen laptop ever made, I thought it might be an idea to run some software on it that might help me recover it should it ever go missing.
After trying a few existing bits of software and not finding any satisfactory, I resorted to writing my own.
Since it seemed useful to me, I thought I'd make it available to anyone interested. It's a very early version at the moment and very basic, but I don't think there are too many bugs (famous last words!! ).
I thought I would post a message here as I use this forum quite a lot, and I know a lot of people here won't have a problem with editing the config file to set it up, I've tried to make things as simple as possible. However, if you don't know the difference between POP3 and SMTP mail servers, this app is probably not for you!!
If people are interested, I'll continue to develop it further. A few ideas are listed on my website.
Visit www.ajhonline.co.uk for download links and help.

this isn't hard to circumvent.
Nice app, but wouldn't they probably wipe the HDD?
How would it compare to Lojack's (utilizes Computrace) service? Some laptops have the Computrace service embedded in the bios. I currently use a Dell D410 and Panasonic CF-19, and they both have Computrace built into the bios. If someone formats my hard drive, or installs another harddrive, the bios will rebuild the neccessary files, run in the the background and start reporting the IP address back to Lojack.
Yes, of course the hard drive could be wiped, or it could never be connected to the internet. It is also easy to circumvent, although if I do develop it further, it would be fairly straight forward to make it less obvious and better hidden. This is only a very first version, to gauge interest more than anything,
It's not meant to be 100% foolproof, that probably isn't possible anyway. The advantage is it's free. I really developed it because I couldn't get Adeona to work (it just kept failing to connect to its server), not to compete with commercial solutions.
Hmmm, you know how I said I didn't think there were any bugs....
I just found that the Windows version was not saving the detected IP addresses correctly, so it would email you a "new" IP address message every time the computer was rebooted.
However the problem is now fixed, and a new version 0.1a available for download. The cross platform version wouldn't have been affected, but there's a new version of that too, just for completeness.
Sorry
Alex
I've now made some additions and released a new version which includes the changes below:
Added a separate configuration application to simplify initial setup
Added the ability to encrypt the mail server password for better security
Added a link to DNSTools to the IP Detected email for easy lookup of the WHOIS records for the IP Address
As before, visit www.ajhonline.co.uk and download version 0.2 from there.
Alex
PS - If you are using the Windows version and doing an upgrade from a previous version, make sure you keep a copy of your existing fyl.properties file, otherwise it will be overwritten during the install and any existing known IP addresses will be lost.
huff,.
i wish i have seen this before i lost my friend laptop,.
great help sir,. keep up,.
Version 0.22 is now available for download from www.ajhonline.co.uk.
It's only a small update; you are now able to specify a range of IP addresses as already known so that you don't get an email when one of those is detected.

[Q] how to migrate from WM8 to Android ?

Hi Folks, I hope I'm posting this in the right section withoud doubling another thread because I have found hints here and there but no actual, efficient solution to my problem.....
Excuse my english, I'm french and couldn't find any solution on french forums either so I'm knocking at your door....
I've always had Android devices but because of some technical issues my provider lended me a WM8 phone (Nokia Lumia 520) for a couple of months before I can get back a new Android phone.
I have the two phones with me for a couple of days but I'm having a hard time transfering some data from the WM8 phone back to my Android, especilly :
-call log (could cope without)
-pdf files (important)
-sms threads (critical)
I mainly focused on SMS's, thinking of different means I could expand upon later on if need be (app, backuping through desktop, outlook or Gmail synch, getting android to synch with OneDrive....) none of this worked so far.
Thanks in advance for your kind help
The only one you will get is the PDF files. You should be able to upload them all into OneDrive and then download them to your PC. From there, transfer them to your Android. The other two are stuck in the Windows cloud, just like how you can't transfer SMS threads from iPhone to Android.
if you come up with something, let the rest of us know!
It *might* be possible to import messages using Bluetooth. I know you can do it from Android to WP8. The other direction... never tried, no idea.

I hoped so from the very begining but I couldn't find any info about doing it the other way round as you mention :/
in the worst case, is there a means to backup those sms in order to check them later on, or print them maybe ?
Well, they're automatically backed up if you turn it on (Settings -> Backup) but that just goes to Microsoft's "cloud" and I don't know how easy it is to find / download / import it would be.
