Create your own app using appinventor - Touch CDMA Android Development

Just learned about this program from engadget.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/12/android-app-inventor-lets-you-be-the-developer-video/
It sounds really easy and fun to create your own app. I'm trying to think what app I need for myself.

cute. my draw back is the apk's i think of would require something of more complexity. however, i do like the the opportunity to build simple apps.

Perfect!
This is a great gateway to get people into developing.
Snaps for Google.

Will check this out. Thanks for sharing.

Just signed up a couple hrs ago, can't wait to try it out
Sent from my European Vogue using XDA App

I signed up, but it looks like it requires a driver to connect the phone to Windows. Even with the dual mount sd widget the appinventor Windows program wouldn't recognize my Vogue.

Does anybody know how long it takes to receive the download after submitting a request form? I'm very anxious to try this and I filled out the form yesterday

Signed up. Looks amazing, just what a guy with no programming skills needs. Now, how long do we need to wait? That's the main question.

Yeah I signed up two days ago. Hopefully we will receive download links within the next week or so. But this looks perfect for me. I've already done some of this building block programming with vB express. Its easy and fun to mess around with for sure.

Signed up for my Android device. Man, wish they had something like this for WinMo. Better yet, wish they had something like this for PC platforms!!

waiting game
Anyone know how long until we get the invite?

I submitted for an invite a few days ago yet no invite.
I want it NOW! Haha

Mhh, sounds weird, but should work well for standard things
I will stay at .net and objective c

This looks great. Next phone will be Android. I'll keep my HD2 for FpseCE.

ya I signed up, seems like awhile ago, I really want to try this out cant wait hopefully they accept my form thing

After fill out the request form they say couple of weeks, as i know Google it means 2-3 weeks... So next or overnext week it should be there. Depending on how many ppl they want invite and how many have signed on...

So...anybody who has gotten the invite should hook a brother up with the install file...*cough* PM

From reading the site with all the information and such i dont think its something you download, but more of a browser based tool. Not quite sure how that would work... But it did say in the browser. Chrome extension maybe?
And if you watch the video they are doing it from within the browser. So no download. Im assuming that its not open to anyone because the site says to go to the website that we sign up at. So when we start seeing a log in button there, we know were in business.

Who uses Twitter?

Anyone? At all?
I never "got" Twitter
I dont feel important enough to believe that anyone would care what I was doing "right now". Conversely, I'm not interested in being constantly informed what anyone else is doing right now. I know a couple people that use it, but it seems like one more thing to keep up with.
just my .02
i am a fairly recent Twitterer. Was travelling recently and found it a way of passing messages back and forth.
I use it. username: cp1md2b
http://twitter.com/omarnova follow me
I don´t use twiter, facebook or any others
You have to invest time on them and makes you a vicious in a few weeks
I know myself, prefer to stay away...now too many hours in front my laptop...between my work and XDA.
I can´t imagine if I use one of those apps...my wife would kill me!
EDIT: Now using Facebook and tweet but limited time....

lol! I didn't think I'd use it at all, but I was surprised by how many did use, like developers and news groups. Great way to get info/news as it happens.
are you guys/gals using twitter via your mobile phone or are using it via your laptop? Im asking cause i want to be able to use it via my phone (touch pro). wanting to know what app or cab i could use to install on my device.
Using it on both depending where i am at the time.
Personally the best app for the PPC i have found is PockeTwit. It works and is being updated regularly. The updating is built into the app as well.
I have had issues using it to upload to TwitPic so i keep ceTwit in the device as well.
I have twitter, but using it only for my website, not for personal needs (seems useless for me).
But anyway, if anyone wants to fallow me here is:

twitter is public and people don't need an account to read messages. I have a couple of friends who follow my Twitter stream to see what i am doing without an acount for themselves. Also for access from my Trinity, the Twitter clients are so much easier to use and faster.

Terra desk now available on beta

My first post
After registering my interest a couple of months ago today i received an email from Terradesk inviting me to there beta.
Initial impressions show this will be one amazing application. And it has to be one of the best looking apps out there, a real indication of how a UI can look.
Go take a look.. www.terradesk.com
As a last note on my first post I would like to thank all the amazing folks on this site for sharing what they do.

would you able to pm me the apk? I can't read the language the website is in. lol.
pm sent
Ron
is there an english explanation of what it is?
or did you mean http://teradesk.com ?
Ah yes.. It seems I may have spelled it incorrectly :-0.
Has anyone else tried it? On wi-fi it works great but I don't get 3g in my house so cant try it on a good phone signal.
I'd try it if I knew where to get the apk from since its still in beta. pm?
I wouldnt mind trying it either.
I would be interested as well
Be cool to try it seems like an app that would come in handy.
Can you pm the apk too? I'd love to try this(on g1,site reboots phone for some reason....)!
I'd like a copy of it as well.
BTW it might just be easier to just upload it here (or somewhere else with a link).

+1, i agree
I'm not sure if just the APK would do much, it looks like there's a desktop client and even an account for teradesk that would need to be set up? Correct me if I'm wrong. Or send me an APK. Or both

Navigation in US now available!! AndNav2 for USA!

AndNav2
There is a new version of AndNav available for Android. Here's a video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOfKpjEpRa8
Looks good but from what I can tell, maps aren't going to be the greatest.
At least there will be a decent alternative to using the google maps which require an internet connection. Sometimes I just want to use the GPS without the additional expense.
Just tested on 6.0r1 rom, seems to be working great: http://www.andnav.org/index.php/en/community-forum?task=viewtopic&id=292&p=5
Make sure you donate some money to these guys...they've done a lot of work and delivered something great to the community!
Awesome news ! Been waiting for this myself.
so whens the server gonna be up for free navigation?
i just went to the site and they havent release it for US yet.
It's kind of on the down low right now while they make sure all the kinks are worked out of the new server. I've been playing with is since yesterday and it's looking pretty sweet.
No, I'm not going to post a link. If you're really interested you should be able to find it on their site and I don't want to encourage the overloading of their new server. I'm sure once they make it a bit more public the news will be all over.

1. Yes moving the map tiles takes a long time depending on how detailed they are.
2. Ask this question in the AndNav forum where the development is happening

I've been using it a bit since yesterday as well. It works, but there is a lot of communication between the G1 and their servers to make things work.
Look in the downloads area for Trek buddy it creates a lot of the map packs. Tiles.
The site is kinda scattered so I would look around in the forum and yes you do have to be a member to see links.
i don't know if i'm stupid or what, but i still can't find a way to download it lol

[Q] ROM Manager premium problem-how do i contact app dev?

I'm not a Twitter pro or anything... but I think as long as you preface your tweet by @koush, he'll see your message and will probably respond. He's a good guy and won't screw you over...so just get in touch with him.
ok thanks guys just did it. hope it works.
Does the rom transfer between phones? Just asking--
Can you copy your TB backup or whole sd card from the s to n sd card so the n sees those apps and knows you have rom mgr

You can probably also get his email by clicking on 'Send email to the developer'.
Actually, just checked, you don't even have to click on it. His email is right there on the page.
You know every app on the Market has the developer's email, right?

yeah i knew about that, but i'm still getting used to the new market layout (that, and a brain fart). I tried the website but it looks like it's no longer up. thanks again everyone!
Now i feel really dumb, esp. since i've gotten help from other app devs the same way in the past.
Sorry, I just re-read my message and it sounds kind of snarky. Don't feel bad for forgetting about that, everyone has brain farts.

thanks for the apology, but i didn't take it that way.
Honestly, after seeing your response the first time, I just felt so dumb. I didn't get the app from the market, but I should've known to check there anyway.
dude doesn't respond to tweets or emails. Starting to piss me off.
if i would have known trying to save 1 dollar was gonna cause me this much headache.....
join the crowd
never got a response
now use amon_ra
I have the exact same problem. I tried to contact him by email but he does not reply. Will try to contact him via Twitter.
It really pisses me off.
Just wanted to see if this got rectified? I recently did the reverse of the OP. Switched from the Nexus One up to the Nexus S. Premium isn't showing up on the NS.
nope. I just won't support the dev anymore. if one really wants to pay for this app, go thru the market. the dollar isn't worth the headache.
also waiting for response
i also buyed via Paypal cause i dont have a credit card (Market only accept Credit-card)
i changed rom and cannot activat premium features
will try to get money back from paypal (45days!)
hope he will response in next few days
greetings
If it were me, I would find alternative means of getting the software. You already paid for the license. If the dev don't wanna support his own product, either don't use it, or find another place to download it. There are many places to obtain android apps.
I don't like spreading this because I support the developers and truly appreciate the work they do. But I also don't like to see ppl cheated out of their money whether it was intentional or not. I'll tell you how to get that app from the market without paying. Just shoot me a pm.
Sent from my Motorola Olympus
I am another person who bought via PayPal, thinking it would save me $1 and put more $ in the developers pocket rather than the Android market taking it. I originally purchased it back in January 2011 and now cannot get my new device to show that it is the premium version without purchasing on the Android Market... Did anyone find a solution to this or get a reply from Koush?

[Request] 6tindr 1.2 xap

Hey,
I am really enjoying Rudy Huyn's genius Tinder client 6tindr since he published it, but I didn't catch the last update before it was pulled tonight.
Is there anybody here who has got the update installed on a Samsung device? This would be really cool, as probably a lot of people like Tinder and want the new features!
If any doubt about posting this here or any help is needed with getting your hands on the app's files, feel free to contact via personal message.
Thanks,

Because I never had 6tindr to begin with!

It needs some work... but some dude developed it and posted the source all for free, so it's hard to complain. One thing I don't like is that he used a third party binary library in it. Maybe that can be written out in the future. But all the logic is there and I think the library would function without the telerik libraries.
Tinder is offering Rudy to talk now. Lets hope this will end positively for us

Download link at the bottom, but says XAP file is invalid :/
That other tinder app is complete crap and crashes every third picture.
I'd request this xap not to be spread around. Tinder is providing a service and they have the right to lock out other apps. But they are showing signs to work together with Rudy to bring us tinder on Windows Phone so I think the best way to show them we appreciate their willingness to work with the community to respect their decission of preventing the app to be spread.
just my 2cents

Yes, they're encrypted. You could install it from an SD card, but that still requires getting a decryption key for the xap from the store. The store won't give them out for apps that aren't listed.
