want to see eWallet ported to Android? - G1 Apps and Games

Read their blog entry and speak your $0.02 on if you think a software vendor ( iLiumSoft ) should enter into the Android community and write applications for Android..

Who cares?
There are free and open alternatives.
There are many similar products already in the market.

Cool, name a few

The draw that some of us have to eWallet is it's ability to sync it to a device and to a PC. I use mine to store bank info, websites, id cards, etc. I haven't found anything in the Android world that will do all of the same things that eWallet does AND sync with a PC.
Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. Can you name any Android apps that will do all of this?

"Password Safe for Android", developer: "Noel Yap".
The desktop counterpart is passwordsafe.sourceforge.net -- open source.
KeePass is another: http://keepass.info/download.html

Me!
eWallet is great, fine tuned and balanced app with great features and working sync! With TomTom it's one of two apps I'm really missing from my thrown-away HTC Kaiser...

I guess a good way to answer the dev's question of whose interested was to ask who cares haha.

It looks like there is still no good alternative for eWallet.
PS. Keepass is only for storing passwords. eWallet is more generic.

About to get Evo
I am also a heavy eWallet user. Probably 300 pieces of data synced nicely. I am about to get an Evo and this is the program I really need a good replacement for.

My two cents? Don't put such vital information on your phone/iPod. You're going to check it in public one day and get mugged with it still open... Tsk, tsk, tsk.

iPhone Style Web browser for WM

Since M$ is taking their sweet @$$ time releasing Deepfish I started looking for a Web Browser that acted like the iPhone. My search resulted with this video . Like what you see? then use this file to make it a reality.
Just a quick note, this program doesn't do an auto connect to your data connection if it's not currently active. You'll have to activate it manually form the Connections Tab under "Settings."
I think it's called Picsel Browser...

Well don't tell my Wing that, because it thinks it's a Samsung!
And it's illegal to share that file since it's considered in "Warez" category.
(Like i care, i've every kind of "warez" installed, hehe)

Is it really? What's the difference between this file (which isn't available as a stand alone product for sale) and all the other things that gets posted on here? I'm not arguing with you, I just want to know for sure what constitutes as warez and what doesn't.
can't wait to try this. They should sell this it looks pretty nice. Sad they are only into licensing to specific companies.
I installed it and Im getting an error message that says Unable to connect to the server. Anybody else have any issues?
Works perfectly on my p4350 with TouchFlo 1.1 on it.
Official Wing testing will be conducted t-minus 45 minutes
Allright. Works perfect on my wing.
Running Touchflo 1.1.

Well, correct me if i'm wrong but as much as i know, distribution of this program is not legal since it's a products specially coded for/by Samsung. Picsel Browser is not being distributed freely, is it? So, sharing this program is illegal which puts this program in to "warez" status. It's not that a software is warez only when you share a crack or serial along with the release.
As the definition says:
Warez is a derivative for the plural form of the word "software" meaning copyrighted material traded in violation of its copyright license. The term generally refers to releases by organized groups, as opposed to peer-to-peer file sharing between friends or large groups of people with similar interest using a Darknet. It normally does not refer to commercial for-profit piracy.

Therefore, sharing this software makes it "warez" since we're violating it's copyright rules.
This is my humble opinion about the matter.
this is a nice program but since development of this program has not been extended to cover windows mobile there are many problems with this browser. My biggest issue with this application when I initially tried it a while back was that it had trouble with forms and authenticating web pages, made it quite difficult to log into some sites. Used as a pdf reader, picture viewer, browsing blogs, and viewing various files it is quite a remarkable program considering how long ago it came out. Would definately sign a petition to get this up and running again...
Definitely a neat program! It works fast and convenient. It's true that a lot of html gets screwed up, forms and frames and scripts won't always run as they're supposed to but.. I don't think microsofts standard mobile solution in wm6 is much better on that front. This thing makes webbrowsing fun on mobile phones, I can't say that for Pocket IE.
I do however get this cube thing all the time while playing with sites and images.. strangest thing ever

Yeah, the problem there is that this web browser doesn't do an auto connect to your data service. You'll have to launch it manually (Start Menu-Settings-Connections Tab-Connections-Manage Connections-then highlight your data connection and select connect). Hope this helps
Memory Hog
Running it on an 8125 (Wizard) WM5. App over all works great but man is it a ram memory hog. I can start with 15 or 17 mb and after a few minutes of searching the web I am getting messages say to free up some memory so it can proceed. I check it in settings and I am down to 1 or 2%. WOW!! No other programs running in the task manager. Great program just wish it didn't suck the resources dry.....

I wish I had a memory card, Im totally out of memory.

btw. great way for panning and scanning pictures, just wish file browser had thumbnails.
Tyler, you don't have a mem card, these microSD cards is DIRT cheap!! If you can afford the phone and not the card, then maybe someone should donate you one since you're doing such good work for all of us with the ROMS...

Anyone Care to port this iPhone App?

Surprised it took this long lol
Needs size, color and firmness sliders
That would be SO Weird Science!

oh damn! I want it! :O

Very nice!

You know ... this illustrates a great opportunity that could seize some momentum back to the WM side of the force, should anyone have the wherewithal...
There is huge demand for this and apps like it, however Apple is pulling a "Betamax" and restricting certain types of applications. That is the one big flaw in the App Store paradigm and one that could be exploited to WM's (or other OS') benefit.
It's up to us as advocates to point out this flaw, and up to talented programmer to provide the apps which we could point to and say, hey check it out. WM doesn't have any company deciding what you should and shouldn't be able to run on your device.

This has always been where WM shines... I dont want some hob nobs in Cupertino restricting content I want to see, use. I'm suprised they weren't bold enough to globally start banning "inappropriate" sites from Safari.
Everyone should support the dev of a universal WM marketplace where apps can be compiled and be easily managed.. WM apps are too scattered to find and should be sent through a "cab/beta sweep" to provide some consumer protections.. This market would be an optional portal for apps, not mandatory, but a point system tied to X-Box live could add some spice to luring users to install.

look up gecko. the newest beta just came out theres only like 15 apps at the moment but hes trying to make it just like the appstore is
I do wonder, however, why WM doesn't seem to have the developer base to be proactively coming out with apps like this and others, whereas iPhone is fairly overflowing.

Its all about the hardware... With Iphone its 1 piece of hardware to develop.. WM = hundreds of devices, so programs don't pass the grade for every model.. What would be good would be a marketplace that simply filters the programs based on the device. I hope gecko takes that approach as it expands into a full function platform.

Printing from Android?

I searched these forums but could not find anything. Has anyone developed a way to print documents from inside android? Or anyone know of a creative way to accomplish this?
Thanks.
It might be possible to do it from debian using cups but not you can't do it natively yet.

Wouldn't this be possible through Telnet? (That is if you were on a WiFi with a networked printer)
Through the network it is def possible.
I don't know an app that supports it yet though.
However, it should be easy enough.

Couldn't you just use Telnet Net Print?
True but i don't think the g1's telnet supports it.
If someone is willing to give it a go this should help:

Of course you will need the printer to be connected to a computer thats in your network.
Thank you for the link. It looks like a start. My dad wants to run part of his business from an Android phone and wants to be able to print receipts and tickets while on the go.

Do you mean print them to a small printer or something that he carries around with him, or something like print them to a network enabled printer that he has installed in his office? The former is going to be difficult/impossible without a laptop or something. The latter will still be hard, but should be do-able at least.

Actually I think he wants to be able to do both. I told him its not likely until some future product comes out aimed for Android. They have wifi and bluetooth printers so I guess its just a matter of time until someone develops the software. Everything else right now is too much of a hack to be useful for him.
Hell yeah, i want to get ride of my laptop and print emails from my G1, any update on this topic?

Printing From Android
I have also been searching the forums and marketplace for an application to print docs, pdf and spreasheets to a mobile printer, like hp 470 officejet. The couple of applications that I have seen isolated to their application and require print to a Network or something on the notebook. I want to print from Android directly to a mobile printer. If anyone knows of an existing app or someone that is in the process and needs someone to test, I am very interested and this would be for multiple sales. I have looked at printer share and spoken with send 2 printer.
Thanks
Just download printershare from the market. Amazing what you find if you type printer into the market search
Thank Shadow

Printer share does not print via bluetooth, does not print email attachments, needs wifi or network, Its pretty narrow. I did not dig real deep because the no bluetooth printing was a bummer. I spoke with them and Print 2 go. I thought I said this in my question but maybe I forgot. Both of those are good products however. Sooner or later there will be something more universal.
I want to go hard core. If market search found something for me I would not be looking on here. I search that every two minutes
But Thanks,

Contract Management App for Xoom

I am a wedding and portrait photographer and am trying to integrate my Xoom into my business. What I would love to see is an app that allows me to import my contracts in pages or ms word format, edit them on the tablet, have my customers review the contract and sign it on the tablet, then export the file as a pdf and email a copy to the client. Anyone got any ideas, or is this just wishful thinking. I have not seen an app for android or iOS that can handle this. Im obviously not a developer, but it seems like there would be a huge market for this, and as a laymen it seems like it should be fairly easy to accomplish.
Agreed,
I really need a app that I can put documents on for my business and my clients can sign on the xoom then I don't have to print all this paper and everything would be electronic.
Check out EasySignMobile. It is an iOS app, but if it is what you are looking for it might be worth contacting the developer to see if they are working on an Android port.
We need to get some traction on this. I'd be willing to pay for an app like that and even donate to a dev willing to do it.

I have found most of the iOS apps to the sub par, and many of them are subscription based and are handled through a website service, or do not allow for editing docs on my device. What I need is an app that will handle everything locally, on my device, and I can backup to my computer at home. I will take a look at EasySignMobile though.

FYI I just emailed the developer of easysign just to see. I'll let you guys know if anything turns out.
Thanks for the suggestion
Ye I contacted most of the developers for these apps like pdf expert, what I use on the I pad for signing PDF and filling out forms, but they and most developers said that they do not have any plans for developing for android. Their excuse is that they believe in quality and not quantity, but I respond by saying that you can still make a quality app for android, but still no use. Some did say though that if they do expand then the android market will be next.
Android does lack in business apps and I will gladly pay money for those apps. That is why I am returning my xoom (what a shame) because I need one for business, the same reason why you need one for yours, and going back to my ipad where I use quicksale for invoices and pdf expert for filling out forms and signing business contracts.
If any developer reads this thread just know that I will gladly pay $20 for an app that can satisfy this need as well as a seperate twenty for invoices. The ipad apps that I use are very nice, easy to use, and well developed. So for business I would get the ipad than the xoom. And for those who say there is an invoice app for the xoom, I have tried them all, and paid, and they SUCK.

Although you can't edit repligo reader does let you annotate and even add handwriting onto a pdf. Documents to go is okay for editing word docs but yet to find anything that lets you save as pdf. So no perfect solution but a few apps as mentioned are close. Its odd there are so many apps that let you take a photo and convert to pdf but nothing for documents, wonder if its an adobe licensing issue? I know acrobat pro for windows is pricey but I use it all the time at work particularly to distribute visio and ms project docs.

Local bible app?

Hey guys -
I was wondering is there a bible app that does not use the internet. It is a WIFI only Xoom and my church does not have an open WIFI.
All the ones I have tried from the market are not formatted for the tablet, and also use an internet connection.
Thanks.
I use Bible by Youversion.
While you're on WiFi, just download the version you use to your XOOM so you can use it anywhere.
You could also use www.acrobible.com

I use the NIV Bible from Tecarta. It works well on the tablet and has good navigation, but it crashes occasionally. The Bible from YouVersion is also good, as mentioned above, but the navigation is not as user friendly.
I use tecarta nasb. Works perfectly for me but it does cost money

I have NewVersion I just need to download it directly for offline access. I never knew that.
I cannot log in though, for some reason it does not allow me to input any information for log in. It's just blank. Can some one confirm they are able to log into the software?
Olivetree has a program called Biblereader that is the Cadillac of Bible programs on mobile platforms. The program itself is free, but the various versions cost money. The versions are portable to other mobile platforms, and there are tons of additional resources that are supported in program. The current android version is one major revision behind iOS, but they are working on releasing a new one soon.
All in all, it is one of the best study tools out there on any platform. Check it out.

Will do, I am running into issues with YouVersion.
I use the Barnes & Noble Nook app, and you can get any version of the bible, (N.I.V., King James. Etc...) for about a buck. Has chapters, works off-line, can highlight, annotate, bookmark, lookup words) even does the little page flip like on the iPad, love it.

A little off topic
I've been trying to get the people at globible.com to add the android tablet platform. Very cool Bible app and the more people requesting it the more likely they will push development.
I am not a huge Olive Tree fan but it if probably the best offline Bible. I read that they recently updated the reader so I should give it another try. I have in my Kindle app, too, but find the YouVersion app has the best search feature.
I love youVersions bible. Tons of translations. I bounce around KJV and NIV during study, sometimes KJV is a little over my head.
If you go into the list of translations there is a green button on the right to download to the device locally.
I attend a pretty old fashioned baptist church, and get some pretty interesting looks from the older folks when I break out the tab
Glad to see so many other Christians on here as well, it's exciting.
Edit:
I got a little excited and didn't read the whole thread. But I saw one or two people say something about youVersion and logging in.
Even though it doesn't show your email or passwords in the field, they are in fact being input. Just be careful and you should be able to login without issue. It took me 2 or 3 tries to get the UN and PW right.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I'm working on a Honeycomb optimized bible and note taking app and I could use testers and people to bounce ideas off of.
I love youversion on my phone, but I can't stand it on my tablet. So I figured this would be a cool way to learn a bit about Fragments and just expand my knowledge in general.
Thread is here. I'd love any feedback.
I checked it out!
Thanks!
"ESV Bible" (free) and "LiveBible" (also free) support offline viewing. While offline is the default for ESV, you will need to download the texts for LiveBible first.
