Done and submitted to Market Place, i put to links at the bottom, you can grab the version without ads or if you wanna be awesome, you can grab the version with ads.. up to you, i dont judge!
5-16-2011
This version has ads while i test out the app. when the app is complete, the link will go to the version without ads for XDA users.
So this is an app i am currently working on. In the end it will be ad supported, but for now i will be sharing it here.
Once you are in, feel free to look me up : thefro : and say hi!
This is a work in progress, so obviously not everything is in place yet.
Working:
You and others join channels to chat in.
Settings and avatar (synced with server)
Push Messaging
Find people around you
Live Tile
Kinda Working:
All is well for now...
Upcoming:
cosmetic upgrades
All feedback is welcome!!
If you do try it out and run into issues, please let me know so i can fix it!
Usage Notes:
There will not be a list of channels, you will have to join one(by typing in a name), and tell others to meet you there. This is to keep thing private'ish... so you dont have random people just showing up. Most items will have context menus, so when in doubt, long press.
I can be found in channel : "support" - Push is done, so i will be able to catch your messages even with the app closed!
Nightly builds will always be at this link... i will also try to keep them as stable as possible. - No new builds until i need to make changes..
While there are daily updates, check the link often as i usually upload new versions as features are completed.

Hello Everyone, i found some odd bugs that may not let you log in. ( i never uninstall it, just keep updating so i had no idea they were there )
Those are now fixed as well as a few other improvements.
Check the link for the updated version.
Hello again...
I see lots of views, and some people even went far enough to create an account..
Please leave any feedback...
If something doesnt work, or makes it crash...
tell me its a horrible idea, or that maybe you like it and want more...
Well, sorry for the long delay if anyone was waiting... i was out of the country..
Later!
-Edit....
So, i decided to see why there were no users doing anything even though i see new users in the system and the fact that this has a pile of views. Come to find out, people could not complete the new user signup process... so i fixed it and now users can create accounts and try out the app... If you created an account and had this issue, i had to delete your account since the process was incomplete...
Feel free to try the app again, and hopefully let me know of any other problems that may arise.
Now that it is done, this is the last bump... it goes somewhere or it doesnt.
Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:
1.3.3.0
Added full Russian translation
Fixed many small errors from user logs
Fixed rare radio restart issue on some ICS buils
Anything to report?
Trying it out.. thnx!!
OK enjoy and please do give us some feedback!

This is my first xda development post so I hope I do this right. Let's discuss Launcher3 and the Google Experience Launcher.
For following along you need Velvet.apk. GoogleHome.apk is irrelevant as it just is a 30 line stub to call com.google.android.launcher.GEL.
Velvet.apk contains the code for the actual GEL (Google Experience Launcher). A lot has been going around about the launcher for the nexus 5 not being in AOSP due to the new Google now swype overlay. The fact is the swype overlay takes advantage of a new launcher feature called CustomContentPages. I haven't been able to find anything in the android.com development documents detailing this so I figured I would start a thread here so we can learn a bit more. if you take a peak at Workspace.java in the 4.4 Launcher3 code you'll se some interesting functions like addToCustomContentPage. I decided to do a little disassembly of Velvet.apk and found that com.google.android.launcher.GEL actually simply extends com.android.launcher3.Launcher and uses the CustomContentPage functions to add the google now overlay to the launcher.
At this time I don't have a lot of details on it as this was just a quick tear down to confirm my existing suspicions about Launcher3 but I hope this gets curious developers pointed in the right direction for understanding the Google Experience Launcher and to put a rest to some of the claims that google is withholding the launcher code.
The fact is they are only withholding the google now integration code. Launcher3 itself hit the aosp and is freely available to tear apart and examine
Discussion threads go to the General section my friend.
A simple request to a mod for thread moving by clicking the exclamation mark is enough guys, no need to get aggressive..
Reposting from where I previously put this, on the suggestion that folks here might have more idea what I am talking about.
Yes, this is a question but I couldn't see that it fit in better to one of the other forums. If I am wrong please accept my apologies and redirect me, thanks.
I'm trying to work with a custom build of Android based on KitKat to incorporate a stylus, copying some of the functionality (though not code) from Samsung which sells Android-with-stylus builds for e.g. the Note 3. I'm not including details of the specific device because right now I am working on a custom dev device and my aim is to write code which is generic enough to be usable from any Android (based on KitKat). The build (written by others) already incorporates drivers and sends stylus events correctly as motion events etc. Programming at the app level I can receive onHover, onTouch, onClick etc
The specific functionality I am trying to achieve is to pick up a stylus-button-click while hovering. It's perfectly possible to do this in any app, using an onGenericMotion Listener.
However, I want to make my "stylus-action" have system-wide effect - so that anywhere (in any other app, or in the launcher or whatever) I will pick up the event (prior to any other app) and bring up my custom menu. (just like AirCommand in Samsung Note 3) I guess in my custom Android this would then make that particular action somewhat protected or unusable for other users, but I'm ok with that.
In older Android (prior to ICS) you could try something by putting up a System Overlay (i.e in regular app code, without hacking the ROM at all), but this is no longer possible.
This is not an attempt to tapjack or whatever, I understand why this functionality has been removed from the domain of the regular programmer, and I don't want to regress my ROM back to pre-ICS behaviour by allowing the System Overlay hack. Now I am programming the system (if my change is good enough I'd like to submit it back to AOSP) so I would like to know the best method to address this. Since Samsung have already done this, it must be legal (using legal in the terms of "Android will allow it"), and I want to do it right.
Is it possible to write something similar to the System Overlay when you are running from a system service? Or is there a good choke-point to capture events before they are broadcast to the current running apps?
I was looking at (sorry, not allowed to post links) AndroidXRef /frameworks/base/core/java/android/view/View.java specifically in the function dispatchHoverEvent() which looks like a promising place. My naive idea is that I would place code here checking the MotionEvent to see if the button is pressed and if it is, don't call any listeners and instead call my little menu app (or broadcast a custom message, or something anyway). However, I've never written code on the ROM level before (LOTS of experience writing app code) so I don't know if this is a really bad point or a good point to add in code. Should I be putting things at a higher level or a lower one? Will this capture all events or not? Is it all just trial and error?
If this is the wrong place to ask questions like this, please tell me where on XDA I should be asking it. If it's the right place - please answer
Thanks

Is there a module anywhere that would allow a quick reply directly from the heads up notification similar to the functionality on IOS? Or really just replying straight from the notification tray.
Afaik, this kind of module does not exist yet. Also I haven't seen this (or similar) feature yet except on some mockups. If there are already some practical resources (except of the mockups) please redirect me to them, would highly appreciate it!
Anyways, I've already suggested to create such a module on some G+ communities, but didn't continue further development because the people were hardly reporting any feedback...
Let's see how this thread will move on and if there are more people except us two who would love to use this feature lol
