CurveFish team present our new app - MySettings.
Do you often change different frequently used system settings?
Then, MySettings is for you.
It’s beautiful tool that allows you quickly enable or disable different settings (ringer mode, brightness, gps, wi-fi, bluetooth, unlock pattern, autorotate, screen timeout, auto sync etc).
Now this version works only 1.6 firmware. On Cyanogen firmware doesn’t work brightness and flashlight. We soon will make support for 1.5 and 2.x firmware.
Current version: 1.0.0
Price: $2.10
Home page: MySettings CurveFish
Android Market link
Screenshots from 1.0.0 version:

When is the 2.x firmware version on the market?

castor.troy, after new year.

MySettings 1.0.1 have released: support for 1.5 firmware.

cyanogen update?
I would be willing to purchase this, but I have a few questions first.
Any news on when the brightness will be fixed? That is one of my most used settings.
1 problem I have with using 3rd party apps like this is the GPS. I love the stock power bar because I can click the GPS button and it will turn on/off with just the push. I've used many others (I believe manup being one of them), when I push the button, I get directed to the GPS settings under the phone menu, then I have to click the checkbox.
Does your app do that, or is it click and go? This is my second most used setting. I hate having to do the extra steps.

Did not show up on my Market
I tried purchasing from my HTC Dream Rogers, and I could not find the app by doing a Search.
By following the link on the web page, I got a "App Not Found" message ...
Willing to buy but cannot. Go figure!

following the link from my mytouch opened market and found app no problem.

Lower the price by $.11 and I'm in.

nice app but $2.10 is kind of steep. there is a free one in market that does the same, has all of the settings like in the curvefish one, just scroll down and you will see it in the app and a nice UI too. it's called Quick Settings.

Free is good, but curvefish makes some good stuff. Gonna have to try that q quick settings to see if the brightness and GPS work, since I'm not getting any response

Grrrr
Quick settings is no good either. Brightness doesn't work, and the GPS is just a shortcut to the settings. No good.
So whats up curvefish? Any ETA on the brightness fix for Cyanogen and does this app have a GPS shortcut or actual toggle?

Define "works." If I set brightness, say to 32% from 75% and reboot, it reboots at 32%. So, it seems that each change in brightness requires a reboot. I can live with that. LOL.

I love the way CurveFish apps look! They blend nicely with my themes.
However, I think the price is a little steep - not because their labor isn't worth it - but, because there are free apps that they are competing with.
I have used toggle settings since it came out and it does all of this and more.
CurveFish would have to add custom profiles to this app for me to consider it over Toggle Settings.

MySettings 1.0.2 have released: show titles bug after rerun the app fixed and we decreased its cost - now $0.99. In next version we plan to add new features and make support for QVGA screens like HTC Tattoo.

I might give this app a try I just wanted to point out that the GPS issue people are complaining about isn't a bad design or anything like that, it's more of a "limitation" (I guess for security reasons). No 3rd party apps can enable or disable GPS, all they can do is take you to the settings page so you can switch it yourself. I believe this practice started in Android 1.5.

Hello everyone,
I'm graphic artist and I design interfaces and icons. In this thread you can request app designs, but only for already released or (almost) working apps. I don't want to put my time into apps that are never going to finish or apps that are just tryouts.
Please post a current screenshot of the app and all the features you want to have in the interface.
Examples of my designs:
aBench:
development in progress
SpeedProof:
App released on 23-06-2009!
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.bigtincan.android.speedproof
Let the coders and designer meet and produce juicy apps!
Regards,
Draxter
If it's for free, you are my hero !
Are you willing to help me with some icon modifications* for a WM app I have written or are you Andriod only?
*I have the icon's but I need to change them without ruining them - I suck at PS.
Thanks
Dave
@RPG0: Yea I do this for free what kind of app did you make/are you busy with?
@DaveShaw: umm... preferably android post the images and your idea then I'll have a look.
Awesome, another designer who helps out devs :]
Great work from what I see posted. Lets make android 'pretty'
(I've offered to do free icon redesigns to free apps in market that I find useful, I figure I'd give back to the community when they've done so much for my phone)
Do you fancy having a look at 'aDyno' and see what you think...
better screens on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4522763&postcount=357
Wow, both apps look really good. Can't wait to try out aBench
Hi !
I seriously need a fresh design for my widgets.
Especially for 'Pure messaging widget'.
I don't like to copy 'HTC sense' style.
You will find screenshots here :

I want to maximize used space, but with a cool design.
I little bit like my last skin for 'Pure grid' :
Airplane Mode Wi-fi Helper
Draxter:
I found this thread and I was amazed that you would do this for free.
Here's an app I'm working on, it's done, however I need a design for it.
Basically it's an app that helps users traveling on airplane to use the wi-fi.
1) I'd like for it to have some sort of background image or sleek design.
2) The buttons can be replaced with ImageButtons.
3) Some buttons will be disabled, and obviously pushed.
4) The actual icon should stay how it is, however the app title can change to anything.
"Airplane Mode Wi-fi Enabler" is already on the market, and this will be the next update. The settings tools of the ap available on the market is available on this one as well, its just that this one is a little better tool for non-advanced android users.
The app is free and will stay free, I have other apps I sell and I want to contribute to the community by leaving this one free.
Thanks in advance!
Forgot to say. I will definitely credit you on the "About" section of the app.
Thanks.
I will look at your requests as soon as i can (probably this weekend )

I have a nice idea for both the calendar and the airplane apps, I downloaded the airplane app and all it shows me is "keep wifi on?" Im not getting a screen like your screenshot at all
I was wondering what the landed button would do, does it restore the settings to airplane mode off and wifi on or something?
A (tiny) small impression, Have to go now again, be back tomorow
Hi dexter,
Actually, that's the old version in the market. The new version is totally different, just like the screenshot.
PM your email so I can send you an apk file
thanks

Looking for 2 apps.

Hey guys.
I've searched for a couple of hours for 2 apps and can't find them. I ran a search on xda and nothing.
First app:
A battery indicator that i can see in the notification area but does not have a icon on the notification bar. I want to be able to drop down the notification bar and see the status of my battery in percentages. I prefer my notification bar as clean as possible.
Second app:
Power controls in the notification area. I found Quick Settings, but that opens another app to change the settings. I'm looking for a way to activate wifi, bluetooth and so on just by taping something in the notification area.
Thanks.
So, the conclusion is that there are no such apps?
It s only too much.
Quick settings is very impressive. It starts the app from the notification bar, thats right.
But, what would you all switch from the notification bar:
Wifi
APN
Brighness
GPS
Auto Sync
Bluetooth
Airplane Mode
etc...
There are too much options for one notification bar.
I'm thinking that an app like this would let me choose 3-4 toggles. I realize it's impossible to have them all.
Oh, and a toggle does not take a row, instead all the toggles should be on the same row but with separators between them.
OK, I' have to say, that I never found such a programm. Sorry.
Something like this:

So the default power bar widget won't work for you? It's pretty much exactly what you pictured, however a widget.
If you want to choose and have your own order, use beautiful widgets.
Why try and cram this into the notification area? You have 5 desktop screens (more with add-ons and custom ROM's) to put this stuff. Navigation from screen to screen is fast and easy (even if you hate the swipe thing).
Or this even? http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.extendedcontrols/
Dunno, just lost as to why I guess.
Yes, you are right, it looks like the power settings widget, but i want it in the notification area to be able to change settings without leaving the current app and stop using the widget. I need the space for other stuff
moved to the Q&A section
What about quickdesk? Kmobs hads mentioned it on twitter couple of times. you can put anything you want even the settings widget and can change it without leaving the app.

Are you talking about the widget? If yes, its not what i'm looking for. Like i said, both apps need to display something in the notification area, so no widgets and no notification bar icons.

i never tried it but damn is too bad the home button gets removed didn't know it. but the app is in beta maybe it will get fixed.

One problem solved.
PS: I strongly recommend QuickDesk so go download it.

[APP] Widgetsoid2.x ... 3rd party Power Control Widget, and more... way more!

Just thought I'd pass this along. Before the NS, I used the hell out of "Extended Controls" ... Sadly, most of the toggles I would have liked to use do not work with the NS (2.3 compatibility issue?). Emailed the dev and got responses right away saying it will be updated next week. Next week came and gone ... came and gone again. Dev is probably behind with RL stuff so sooner or later it will be updated. In the mean time, I found an awesome alternative with more features ... and its free.
Widgetsoid2.X
Highly customizable power control widget ... and can even be configured to add a power control widget from your notification bar drop down.
Yeah I really like widgetsoid. Since cm team still hasn't got the flashlight working I use its flashlight widget inside the notification bar. Works great.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
great app, been using it for a while now. but how do you put the widgets in the notification bar? can't seem to find it
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
ohh that's a nice find
Odd. Both my wife and I use extended controls fine. I find if you restore it via Titanium, it doesn't work but if you do a fresh install of it, everything functions great. Good find though.

The widget isn't really not put in the notification bar. It puts the image of your widget there but when you click on a power control it brings up the power control in an overlay of your screen where you then select which power control you want to turn on/off. For me (not short on screen space) its no quicker than using regular widget on the screen.
thanks! I've been using extended controls even though it wasn't fully operational w/gingerbread. Just dl'ed widgetzoid and bluetooth works! Liking the vertical option too..
I was really impressed by Widgetsoid and its developer 2 weeks ago. I found a bug, emailed the dev, and got a response in like an hour. Within like 2 hours of emailing him, he tracked down the bug and incorporated a fix into the next release. Now that's service.
we reported it a while ago
http://www.mobiflip.de/2011/01/andr...-benachrichtigungsleiste-einfach-nachruesten/
(p.s. google translate is your friend )
The thing I really like is how easy it is to edit existing widgets. Saves a lot of time if you just want to add or remove something from a power control type bar
the app is good, no doubt, but it's a major pain in the back to configure
some options are no longer available after you hit apply
so if you ever want to change them again, you can't (for example the invisible option, there are a few more that are no longer accessible after it was saved)
and the only alternative is to delete it, and create a new one

Guess that's why I'm sticking with extended controls. Profiles are so easy to edit.
but once you master this App, it's a big treasure chest!
once everything was properly setup and configure, it easily replaced 7+ apps
TeslaLED
tons of On/Off Widgets
Ace Volume
Battery info
crap load of other ones i uninstalled
i setup 4 rows, maybe gonna add 1 more for 5 rows for Apps
that's the nice thing about this app, you can create custom shortcuts to make it launch your most used apps, from the Notification area
i simply love it

PS: No problem with applying profile. And if you do have, just email the dev, he will answer and fix.
are you guys able to enable/disable Data with Widgetsoid 2.x on Nexus S using Gingerbread 2.3.. (unrooted?).
Most items work, but this one does not toggle Mobile Data on/off on my phone. I dunno if this is a security limitation right now with this OS.

Yeah I noticed this too. Was a shame, cause this is the main reason I was after this. I guess this functionality of directly enabling/disabling from the task bar cannot be enabled in stock roms without direct framework changes.

Hi,
Widgetsoid need root only for the reboot toggle
For the data on Nexus S just restaur your apn, check your data is enable and go to global preferences of widgetsoid and check "disable all apn".
Now it have to work.

Android don't allow event on notifications it's an android limitation not an widgetsoid error/limitation.
On HTC rom it's works directly because HTC have modify android source code to allow this. HTC users are lucky. Next version have an option to disable popup after click on notification.

Hey guys
I just published my first serious app on the android market and would like to give some of you the opportunity to test it for free. edit: sorry, i cant give away any more test licenses. but i released a trial app, so everyone can now test it for free
The app is called Delayed Lock and simply delays the activation of the secure lockscreen for a user definied amount of time or while connected to WiFi/Bluetooth. You can choose to start the activation timer whether on the last successful unlock or on display off time and immediately reenable the lockscreen through a notification in the status bar or a widget.
Main Features:
Delayes the requirement to enter pattern/PIN/password again after succesfully unlocked once
No lockscreen while connected to certain WiFi network or Bluetooth devices
Time delay since "Screen off" or since "Last unlock"
Quickly re-enable the lock through the Android notification bar or a widget
Widgets & Shortcuts: Toggle Lock, Screen off, Screen off & Lock, Enable / Disable DelayedLock
Free plugins: Disable lockscreen while at certain locations or use the Tasker app to control the lockscreen
automatically wipe the device after several failed unlocks
auto disable USB-debugging on rooted devices (on 4.0 - 4.2.1, not necessary on 4.2.2+)
FAQ:
Here: http://j4velin-systems.de/faq/index.php?app=dl
General limitations:
Does not work if your Exchange policy requires a PIN! (might work if your device is rooted though)
Pattern lock & FaceUnlock require root on Android 4.0+
Does not work on all devices, see section Device incompatibility
Requires root if full device encryption is enabled
Incompatible with NoLED, No Lock & some other apps
Please use the "Uninstall" option from within the app to uninstall it
Device incompatibility:
Some HTC devices: Pattern lock might not work
Some Samung devices: Notification bar might be accessable even in locked state
Samsung Galaxy S5: User reported that after 3 days, the device does not accept the PIN/password any more. Make sure you enable the "Android Device Manager" to remotely change your password in case this happens! Also try to disable the fingerprint feature before setting up Delayed Lock
Plugins:
Location Plugin: Locks when leaving certain locations
RemoteLock Plugin: Locks the device when receiving a SMS containing a defined keyword
Tasker Plugin by Ingenium13
Download:
Play Store
This thread is supposed to be a support thread, so dont hesitate to post any (positive or negative) feedback or feature requests

I can't find it on the Market...Is it only for 2.2 Android?
oh yeah i forgot to mention that it requires at least Android 2.2 at the moment.
but I'm also beta testing the same app but for older Android versions, so if you would like to try that I'll pm you the apk
Damn... Is it possible to make it work with 2.1???
The app the QR code points to is a paid app. There is no free version.
just pm me your gmail address so i can send you the apk and enable a test license. i will also release a free/trial version, but i havent thought about the restrictions yet
Thanks, but it is not because of the half buck you want for your app, it is not even about commercial apps - I have no problems with them.
But I will have problems with this forum if it (or parts of it) turns into a support forum for commercial apps. And your app qualifies as commercial, since, as things stand now, it is not available in another form.
oh I'm sorry, it didnt want to violate the board rules. i was just looking for some guys who would like to help me test my app on more acutal devices (emulator kinda sucks on lockscreen stuff) and didnt know where to find them except here ^^
i dont think i'm able to delete the thread, but if a moderator reads this...
Yes, one of the prerequisites for having a thread here is that there must be at least a free/crippled version for the members to test. Having a sorely paid or individually selected sent app is not allowed iirc.
im willing to test on my mytouch4g running 2.2.1
Really annoying how the trial version displays that screen after unlocking. But it did get me to buy the app Good price too.
yeah, that was my intention
it's the lowest possible price in the market, hope to get my registration fee back that way ^^
J4velin -
Thanks. I'm actually trying to import my Pathfinder RPG books into Alkindo and of course my screen timed out. Luckily, I'd already installed DelayedLocker and BLAM! no having to swipe the screen unlocker or type in my pin.
I'm on a TrulyEpicRebirth 1.5 with Theme 1.7 - and it works nicely.
This is better in the longer term regarding time than NoLock, as that completely removes the lock swipe (not sure if that app also works with the password/pin). Something that allows me to quickly re-require the swipe/password and auto re-lock would be nice (especially something that could fit in my GoLauncher [or other home program] dock).
well, to quickly reactivate the lockscreen you can click on the notification in the status bar or use the widget in the paid version.
a shortcut for the launcher docks is also a good idea, i will keep that in mind
Has anyone else had trouble uninstalling the free version of this program? That screen after unlocking my phone is rather annoying and every time I try to uninstall it, it fails.
just read the app description in the market, the text under 'Revoke locking permission' in the settings or the 'FAQ' in the first post here:

You have to revoke the locking permissions first. Therefore go to the android security settings and tap 'select device administrators'

i just changes some stuff in the app and it should now be compatible down to android 1.5.
therefore i need some testers with a device running an android version lower than 2.2. pm me your gmail address if you're interested
Hi there,
I've just sent you an e-mail about the 1.1 version and WidgetLocker.

Hi, I'm excitedly trying the app as I've ben waiting for this ever since Froyo destroyed my previous solution.
Is it possible to distinguish between the pattern lock screen and the swipe-to-unlock screen. Personally I like the swipe to unlock to protect me from accidental power ons (and I have trackpad to unlock to make it even easier). However, I want to extend the time before the lock pattern comes on from 15 minutes to 1 hour.
Your app seems to elimiante both locks screens in that period.
I also personally like the swipe to unlock.
I can small problem with Cyberion Voice Dial, can't dial voice when phone is locked, can you make option to switch lock off when paired BT device is connected?

Caffeine like app or mod?

Hi all,
I opened this topic as I did not find an easy way to prevent the screen to sleep when I read some news or anything else. (I mean avoiding to go through the lockscreen settings each time and change the sleep time)
It's very annoying to not have this feature nowadays in MIUI 9 ! I have tried all kinds of caffeine apps on the playstore, without success
There must be something not implemented within miui that prevents those apps to work.
Guys, did you experience the same on your side and is there a workaround or a working mod?
Thanks in advance
Well, Apparently I'm the only one who cares if it bothers me ! Every single rom since CM13 has this feature with a tile but the developers by MIUI have decided else.
Just wish this would be implemented natively but hum, wait and see if it comes with the next builds (hopefully)...

Hi all,
I opened this topic as I did not find an easy way to prevent the screen to sleep when I read some news or anything else. (I mean avoiding to go through the lockscreen settings each time and change the sleep time)
It's very annoying to not have this feature nowadays in MIUI 9 ! I have tried all kinds of caffeine apps on the playstore, without success

Yes, It can get annoying from time to time, having to touch the screen to keep it alive. I did try to find some apps but couldn't find any to get the job done.
Although, I do use this app called "Stream" (just google Stream app, it's the first app displayed) it's like a pop out player for Youtube, the size of the player is considerably small and yes it keeps my phone from going to sleep, so yeah listening to music and reading things. Gets the job done for me
Thanks xinie for your input
For info, I share with you a working app that keeps the screen on: No Screen Off on the playstore
It's very light (about 40 ko). Just toggle to enable and vice-versa. Then it returns in its previous settings.
Very simple and useful for those who are looking for a caffeine app missing on miui!

Ever since coming from previous custom ROMs I have missed the option/quick setting tile that enabled you to keep the screen on indefinitely.
MIUI 10 still doesn't offer this feature/function, but i was able to find an app that works well on the MIUI OS.
There's an app called Wakey on google play store that adds a quick setting tile to MIUI and doesn't bug out like other apps I've tried.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Just be sure to enable "Aggressive screen on mode"
Optional: If you don't like seeing "Wakey is displaying over other apps" message you can install AutoNotification or TidyPanel from google play store and make a rule that blocks that notification.
Be sure to also make the following change, App Settings > Installed Apps > AutoNotification or TidyPanel > Autostart ON & Battery Saver > No restrictions
um...why not just maximize display sleep setting to 30 minutes and be done with it? surely ure not staring at the same news article for 30 whole minutes

Too much steps/hassle. Would prefer just a toggle button when it's required when reading something and have it go back to 30 seconds when done when un-toggled.
Hi bseos, thanks for your input with wakey, good to know
Otherwise, here is the very small app No Screen Off (48 ko) I shared a while ago https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.k2.no.screen.off
No complication, just toggle and untoggle and nothing to set up
Two exact years later, no caffeine feature on miui 12 beta.
I arrived here looking for that, I'll try wakey app. Thanks.
Hello !! There is another app also, similar to Wakey. It is called Caffeine - Keep Screen On and works well, at least in MIUI 12. Keep in mind that having the screen on for long periods of time may damage your screen.
