flashlight alerts froyo

This is a very cool app that could even be considered an accessability option, it uses the flash to alert for calls & msgs I used it with 2.1 and it even worked on some 2.2 roms also, I dunno maybe his girl won't put up with his devvin but he replied to my email saying he didn't have time to fix it but he will post the code somewhere so somebody else can pick it up... both versions were paid apps (both I bought)
If he sends me a link ill post it...
If somebody happens to fix it let me know ;-)

kinda a bump but not really
I haven't heard from the dev and didn't find anything with a quick google, I'm suprised there aren't more deaf/hearing impared people, people working in loud enviroments, etc
It also alerts you to calls from a distance even when you can't hear the ringtone.
Maybe nobody is intrested enough, it worked on a few nightlys but hasent worked for a while now, maybe its an easy fix, but for me its an almost impossible.
Doesn't the powers that oversee android want to add as many accessibility features as possible?

[Q] [q]Volume too Less! ! & suggestion

hey guys,got hold of my cappy a couple of weeks back....
running on JH7 and rooted.....i use one click sideload wonder machine.....no lag fir anythng applied.....using launcher pro....unlocked
all at&t bloatware removed
1.) i find the volume too less.....sitting in a restaurant i missed most of my calls....only on vibrations am i 'sometimes' able to take the call----is there perhaps some kind of a mod to increase it...maybe some settings ( all my settings are maxed out)......can u suggest me some ringtones which are 'audible'??
ive started usin an app called volume master---i maxed out everything in that too...still too less
2.) my notifications sound always gets reduced to 25% no matter what i do...i max it out....then after some time i discover its again 25%....its barely audible!!! whats wrong with that
3.)my facebook sync doesnt sync any contacts...keeps on showing error....i do get updates...activites is working fine.....but sync isnt....ive set the sync to sync every 1 hour....
4.) any idea when the offical froyo will be released?? i don wanna try out cognition....and will i loose my unlock code after froyo??i live in asia...no at&t!!
suggestion--can we create a Questions thread for simple everyday ques...i feel weird to make a whole new thread for some silly ques that can be simply answered!! just suggesting

30 views and surprisingly no views....whats up pple??

I am not sure why you are having those specific problems. Most of the people are saying to copy your unlock code down somewhere before you flash, but that once its unlocked you are safe. I have problems with cognition roms making my volume quiter than I9000 roms, but I have less bugs with cognition roms than I9000 roms. *shrugs* hope this helps...

[Q] Getting rid of proximity sensor VIBRATE

Hey there,
I got a milestone running the latest CM7, since around 2 versions ago (~2 weeks) the proximity sensor vibrate when turning the phone on/off during calls.
This is freaking horrible as i have black hair and the sensor is constantly on/off.
basically, i can't the phone as a phone :] before i start downgrading and searching which version is still ok,
anyone knows if this can be fixed via an option/script/etc ?
(i already saw that this is happening to more people, just didn't see a solution yet)
Thank you

There should an option to do it. Did you check the settings in phone?
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk

of course i did
Even disabling all the haptic features didn't solve it.
Its something the latest builds inserted without an option (or at least i don't know where it is)
anyone else?

Solution found,
Delete the DIALER application from the PHONE GROUP in PROFILES.
weird bug.

The phone group doesent have a list of applications in it on my phone...
the profile has a "application group" section .. but that to doesnt have dialer...
if the users in this thread are still active .. can you given the detailed steps ? looks like i am searching at the wrong place

Hey,
This is a very very old thread and it happened on CM7, if your using the new CMs it looks different (and i'm not sure the problem still exist...).
In general (if I remember correctly) I just deleted all the stuff I had in the profiles until it worked (I did it for the phone profile, you can experiment).
If your using new CM, I suggest posting in the CM help thread for your device here on XDA

[Q] Calendar reminders not working in some cases after upgrade to ICS

I have noticed that lately my calendar reminder do not always work as expected after upgrading to ICS on vivid.
Most of the times when it doesn't work is when I set a reminder event, reboot the boot. Once the phone is up, it doesn't show any reminders for the event that was set before the reboot. Has anyone else noticed the same ? Any ideas, solutions ?

Am I the only one seeing this issue, everyone else calendar event are being reminded correctly, even after the restart of the phone ? Any feedback yes or no would be great guys. I am sure most of you who own a vivid have updated to ICS, so there should be some feedback at least

This has been noted b4 and from the few devs and more experienced members have said that its a bug within ics ....iv heard that u can use a third party app to get reminders but I don't personally use that feature so I'm no good on that aspect ...but I thought I would let u know what iv read

Thanks, for the reply. Hope Google comes out with a fix soon.

[Q] Cant send unicode characters to iPhone?

Hi,
So I'm having a lot of trouble trying to configure a solution to this problem! When I text my girlfriend who is French, her iPhone can't receive accented characters, it instead replaces them with other characters. I presume this is a problem with the Unicode settings on my phone but can't find much information on this topic anywhere! I have a Samsung galaxy s i9000 international triband, baseband I900XXJVT running cm10.1.3 (android 4.2.2). I live in.new Zealand and I'm with 2degrees as my provider, have recently switched from skinny due to band issues. Any help would be much apprecjated ! Thanks!!

Hi There,
dont know if i can really help.
i'm also on 2degrees, were the messages working correctly on skinny?
have you tried texting the same message to another Iphone? or another phone?
and/or texed from another phone to her Iphone?

Yes, I have tried many different phones. I'm sure its not the network now, so more looking at trying to see how i can change the settings on my phone, but there seems to be nothing? Can it be that the version of ROM i'm running is the problem and I need to change ROM's?

If you have tried different phones i'd say the likelihood of it being a ROM issue drops through the floor.
Unless by complete coincidence all the other phones you used were running the same ROM (or had the exactly the same settings).
Also if everything worked on skinny that would make me lean toward it being a carrier issue.
I did a quick Google and came up with this article from Apple, sounds very similar to what you have.
*** I cant post a link yet
uummm ... go to apple, then support that search "SMS messages may display incorrectly on other devices"
the article should come up at the top of the list.
hope that helps.

Thanks for your help on this! I think you may be correct with the ROM theory, I will just have to change my rom and find out!

no problem,
its the small things that are the biggest the bum.
*oh (light bulb moment) have you tried sending a MMS instead of a text? or using whatsapp or similar?
could be a short term work around.
best of luck.

@nippynz it will work with Hangouts or Gmail, Yahoo etc.
It is BTW Apple's speciality to break purposely the compatibility between their products and Android or PC. Not even JPEG or MP3 file data transfer with Bluetooth will work between Android and iPhone. Apple sucks!
