Open Home full feature 1.5 build

Hey guys,
Is anyone brave enough to test the full feature 1.5 build of Open Home Full? We know we can always find some brave ones here
It requires that you are running android 1.5 on your phone (aka Cupcake). This build has full supports of 1.5 widgets and also a good amount of stability and performance improvements.
We had not done a lot of testing on this build; also this build will expire in a month (5/30). If you want to test the latest and greatest, feel free to install and try this build.
*Remember safe mode is hold menu button when powering on*, if you see anything wrong, just enter safe mode and then uninstall it.
Do NOT install unless you are running android 1.5
Download the apk at

I assume since I'm running the dudes build and it supports widgets it may work. I can always remove if necessary . This doesnt remove open home right? just a different version?
EDIT: it replaces the existing open home

Hmm, I was impressed with the demo of OpenHome when I downloaded it a couple days ago. I'll take a look.

downloading it now. I have just flashed the holiday cupcake build so I assume it'll work with this. I'll let you know.

So far so good. I am glad to have openhome back again in 1.5
I have added all widgets, and they all work as expected. Are some of these the 1.5 "stock" widgets? I assume so because i see 2 music widgets listed, one looks like your own and the other a stock one.
I'll let you know how it goes after some proper usage. great work so far though. thankyou.
oh, p.s .. Will this be a free upgrade for those who had previosly purchased open home full ?

Works well enough. I like it.
Normally use full edition but will keep this until it is updated.
Suggestion: How about that calendar widget from Haykuro's build so those with dude's builds can use it?

Using it. Works well so far. I'm an OH Full user too, will I have any problems going back to the market app when it gets updated/released?
Ps. Is there any way to add support for Jeff Sharky's weather widgets? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509729

Weather widgets ok here. Problem with battery percentage widget though

It's already supported. That weather widget is working fine for me.

Hey guys i like the changes the menus are a little more intuitive now! Shame it doesn't seem to maintain your icons from older version, but weirdly kept my fonts theme etc - not sure if that qualigfies as a bug or not really
One problem i have found though is it seems to scrap folder icons the second you open bettercut again, not a huge problem but ....

BUGS!
I have almost 200 apps to SD so it's convenient to have my favorite "few" on the desktop. After I installed the new apk file... everything was GONE! Huge inconvenience! Then when I pull up the app menu I can watch them appear one after another like the app is doing a search for the installed apps. I also tried Picture Frame. It seems like it pulls up the Camera app, then the gallery. I selected my picture. Cropped it. Saved it. Then it went back to "select picture" again. Strange. Also... AnyCut Open Home Edition doesn't work. Definite bugs.
Other then that I love it. Thanks! Is this going to be in an update and when will it be available in Market? I purchased the full version months ago.

I don't think it has anything to do with bettercut because I don't have it installed and it still goes back to the default folder icons randomly, sometimes it comes back sometimes it doesn't.

Yea that kind of pissed me off when I realized it took all my stuff off the screen and the dock. It works fine besides these few issues though.

Hey quick question, is there any way to add a 3d effect on swipe? Like when you swipe to left or right screen, screen shrinks and rotates as a 3d cube. That will be awesome dude, you can name the app something different and charge for it again because I know damn well people will pay for it. I definitely will.

The reguar widget works for me, but not his. It isn't even displayed as an option.

Trying it out on my new Magic

But it's not 'open' in any sense...

Really dissapointed in losing all of my icons on all 7 screens. Glad that "real" widget support was actually added in. Almost went back to dxTop because of this. Please make the full version available on the market as an upgrade to the old full version. It would be nice to make it detect the old settigns and import them in.

Hey guys.. uhh i accidentally set my home to default instead of open home.. any help would be appreciated!

Opps. You have to wipe now.
Just kidding. You deal with it the same way as if you would set the defaults as any other app. Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Home>Clear defaults.

Been using this app for a few days now.I havent ran into any problems with it pretty smooth.Only down side was losing my icons.But no biggie.

Enabling G1 Maps Navigation has started annoying call behaviour - HELP!

I have Cyanogen's 4.2.3.1 installed with the 2.0 Maps application and Navigation works correctly for me.
Since I installed Navigation I am getting a huge "Double tap to answer" button that pops up on my screen when a call comes in.
A) It seems to have shortened the amount of time my phone rings before sending to voicemail
B) The double tap is flaky
C) It looks like ****
I have searched Google and the forums to see if this was an issue people had but can only find people talking about the in-call unlock screen.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how to stop it?

Is your navigation actually on while this is happening? If you have the little triangle above in your task bar then it is.
If you are fully exited from maps this shouldn't come up. At least it doesn't on my phone.

This happens all the time now. Even with GPS off and the Maps app not even loaded. Persists through reboots.

Odd. This happens while I have maps loaded, but not when its not loaded.
How did you install navigation?

push back our old build.prop

Will pushing back my old build.prop disable navigation?

No navigation only needs it for the install. I thought that might be the problem. Push your old prop files back and good luck!

this happend to me aswell, but i actually liked the double click - box look
that would also happen when my phone was just sitting here, no nav on, it would just light up, and have the double click box lit up.
i was on 4.2.3.1.
all that ended when i flashed cyan 4.2.4
i didnt wipe.. or fix permissions.
i installed navs from other thread [basically just the update.zip and clear data]
and everythingg works just fine. thanks to all!

I didn't know 4.2.4 was out yet but thought a Cyanogen Mod update would probably fix that issue. Reverting to my previous *.props has fixed all the issues.

You should've posted this in the Q&A section or an existing related thread.
Anyways.. To get rid of the double tap box, you need to push back the original build.props. If you do that however, you'll lose navigation in a few hours, like 6 or 7 hours.
There's already a thread about this that's named something like "unlocked features from new build.prop".

I will remember that next time. After being on here for almost 3 years I forget that the newbie youngsters like to change how we have done things here. Like one thread per issue. Thank you for the helpful link to the thread you thought I should have posted it in, great to see that XDA hasn't gone all to hell with newbie senior members who just throw out dictates and then can't even do a decent job of helping people.

use this if you are running cyanogen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583684

Heres the thread for updated features from build.prop
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583030

I just did the install with the newest cyanogen and then tried calling myself and I dont have any issues.
Also, navigation works fine.

I have a G1 with CM 4.2.4, and I'm not having the issue either. I tested incoming calls with the NAV and in maps.

I finally got Navigation -and- paid apps in Market to show, but, I am experiencing the same problem as the OP mentioned.
I don't want to lose Navigation but this is a little annoying. Someone mentioned if I put the original build.prop and build.trout.prop back, Navigation will not show up. How can we get the best of both worlds?

i swear i feel like people just post without reading anything. i posted a link to a thread that will fix your problem. look up a few posts. another member here had an update.zip that will install the maps without breaking the market, without making the weird floating box, and without any other weird problems. if you are running cyanogen it will work perfect.
the .props need to me modified to allow navigation to remain longer than a few hours. just apply the update-navigation.zip from recovery mode and it will fix your issue.

Actually I am having this same issue WITH using that .zip but for me it is no big deal. We are lucky to have Nav, I will take it with whatever problems (temporary of course) it comes with!

i had the double tap issue after i manually installed nav on wednesday. today i ran that .zip and the box is gone. i dont get why it would work for some people and not others.
the zip was actually updated 3 or 4 times. so if you applied it when it was first dropped, maybe you have an old version

[APP] Auto shutdown app

I am working on an application which will shut down my sons media player only captivate at a specific time. I have it working but am not particularly good at drawing or coming up with good ideas for an icon for it.
Does anybody have any ideas?
AutoShutdown.apk
FYI I built it for 2.2 but tested it on 2.3 (my captivate) and it requires root access (it essentially creates a service that at a specific time calls "reboot -p".
Update Info:
1.10 Changed to using an Alarm.
1.5 Moved the Save button to the bottom.
1.4 Revamped to use a Handler instead of a thread thus reducing the overhead because I am not checking the time every 45 seconds, I just delay the shutdown for however many milliseconds it would take to get to the requested time.
1.3 Fixed the not shutting down issue (at least under 2.3, I will test on 2.2 tonight). Added alpha channel to the icon.
1.2 Added simple icon
1.1 Added an Enabled checkbox. Setting the shown time to the last time entered. Fixed killing the old thread.
1.0 Basically worked with whatever the last time you entered

Well this worked in testing via the debugger but for some reason my sons phone isn't turning off...
1.3 fixes this problem. I was being a bit too aggressive on waiting for a thread to end.

I have found that 2.2's reboot command does not accept the -p parameter which means that this will not work. If some one has another method I would be more than happy to add it in.

Only tested to work on 2.3, primarily under Fusion XII. Its been working fine for me.

very cool idea., any idea if it'll work on ICS?

No clue since i don't have a device with ICS.

can i use in motorola milestone or other device ?

I'd suggest a power icon with clock hands on it as the icon. If you want I could make a quick one for you.

That would be neat. My wife made that one up pretty quickly.

I have just verified that the code still works under Android 4.2.2.

cron4phone app, free on google play, does same, and also lets you vary schedule by day, etc, and schedule many other tasks as well. you do need root for it to work.

Good to know. I had originally made it for my sons phone.

Hello kevria,
Are you still working on this project? I have a couple of suggestions.

I havent been but I still have the source code so could modify it as needed. I also havent had a reason to use this since my son's android device died.

My condolences
Well, I can't find a countdown shutdown app anywhere, was wondering if you could make do so.
Not on a specific time, but like 1 Hour or 10 minutes count down.
Hope you will be interested :fingers-crossed:

I will see if I can get the source to build and make the change. Im pretty sure I had it calculating out the amount of time from now until the shutdown time so it should be simple to modify the code.

The app isnt building due to a xml error that I will have to track down when I have time. You could use the app as is and figure out what 1.5 hours from now is...

Hello try creating a shortcut on your home screen, go to the application manager.

I have lost the source code to this app so I won't be able to make any changes.

[Q] Widgets/apps probs

Hi guys, I really hope I can get some help here, can't find anything about the problems I am encountering.
I am using this phone for about 4 weeks now, and it's working fine, except for some problems with widgets. I have problems with 3 apps/widgets now; they all worked fine on my old phone, a HTC Sensation XE (rooted, with different ROM's and Android versions). They all have strange behaviour. At first I thought I had some settings set wrong in the apps themselves, but I tried everything I could think of and now I have to conclude that the problems start with the phone itself.
I am encountering problems with the following apps:
aCalendar+: widget, but also opened app get in some kind of update loop; sync icon starts spinning, stops and immediately starts again, and on and on. It does sync properly though in the meantime.
Plume: Most of the time the widget does not respond to manually syncing. Only after I open the app and sync manually (which works fine), and go back to the widget, I can finally sync using the widget.
Transparent clock & weather: Most of the time, the clock does not keep track of the time, it just hangs. Only when I tap the widget, or refresh the weather, it syncs with the internal clock, like it should. Sometimes though, the clock does keep track for a short time, but in the end it will hang again.
I tried out a lot of different things with the P7 energy- and network apps settings. Also I upgraded to firmware version 126, but it all doesn't make any difference. It's all really annoying, especially because I never had those issues on my old phone.
Anybody got a clue?

I have test this app.
I think you mean this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.droid27.transparentclockweather
I was able to reproduce your problem and solve it.
Please set this app as "protected app". You didn't have set it, so the app would be closed then the screen get off.
You can set this: Settings -> Protected Apps -> Check the checkbox of this app.
Then your widget is working.
Then an app don't set up as protected, the app would be closed on screen off.

Thanks for your help, I already tried that out before. It do not think it made a difference though. Anyway, the time freezing issue also happened when using the phone for some time, I mean without screen off time, so it should not make any difference. But in the meantime I updated the app, and that seems to work.
The links for the other apps:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelup.touiteur&hl=nl
I contacted the developer of Acalendar+, and as far as I understood there should be an update coming in the near future that should resolve the problem. I installed another calendar app in the meantime, which just works flawlessly, so maybe I just stick to that one...
I hope Plume gets a working update too, so I can enjoy me phone without being annoyed
Thanks again for your effort!

Oops, I just found out you were right about the protected apps thing. I have not had the issue with the screen active since the last update, but indeed, after screen-off time, the issue is back again. So I guess I should indeed use the protected apps setting.
I don't understand why this is necessary though. I mean, the internal system clock just carries on ticking in standby mode, so why wouldn't the app just sync with that automatically when I activate the screen? Or would it be so that the app has always been active in standby mode on my old phone, and is it only because I now have this protected apps mode on this new phone that I am getting aware of this? If you understand what I mean, this is quite hard for me in English...

I've experienced similar issues. Like you I use aCalendar+ which is very good. However I don't use any of the widgets that come with this app. I prefer Smooth Calendar instead. So far, no problems at all. And as for the clocks, it seems a bit hit and miss. I was using DIGI Clock Plus but had no end of trouble with it. It just won't update on wake up. Protected or otherwise. I've given up on it. The clock widgets from HD Widgets work just fine. There's an amazing array to choose from. Maybe it's an Android issue, maybe Huawei. Who knows? I think the best solution is to find apps and widgets that work and discard those that don't.

WARNING: Update A1PV1.0.0B25 breaks camera functionality

I installed update A1PV1.0.0B25 this morning and tried to take a photo in Bokeh mode and get, "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped," message. Then, I attempt to take photo in regular mode, the shutter click sounds, but no photo is taken. Not sure what other problems there are yet, but...PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Not sure what the fix is other than rolling back the update (if possible). Ironic in that this update was supposed to improve camera function. The video camera functionality appears to be working correctly.

Good to know! Thank you for the warning. I saw the notification about the update this morning but I am at work so didn't want to update until I got home. Now I may wait awhile to see if they know about this and will fix it soon.
Stinks though, as when I saw the notification I was actually a bit excited to see there was an update and for the camera especially! On well. Guess they need more thorough testing procedures...

It Breaks Google Camera Too!
I wish I hadn't been in such a rush to upgrade. This is extraordinarily bad. Didn't they QA this? As well this probably means that the marshmallow update won't be until probably mid to late Q1. I had got excited with the first update that they would update quickly. I guess that was wishful thinking. I really regret getting this phone.
Google Camera doesn't work as well. When you try and run it you see "Camera error - there was a problem saving your photo or video".

I got this phone mainly for the audio chip and its cheaper price even with these high end specs. So far my only complaint is with the camera, as I think it could be clearer and better. Image stabilization would help a ton. But like you I find myself questioning my choice. Looking at that BlackBerry Priv, but man, is that expensive!
Hopefully they can figure out the camera issues and release another update soon.

Dont update!
I was an idiot and updated this morning without checking this forum. I should have waited because now I have no camera. I can't take pictures, I can't take screenshots, this is a complete waste. Doesn't zte test this before releasing. Obviously not.

No response yet from ZTE support
I hit up their support on the website. Haven't heard anything back yet. Not holding my breath either. If I hear anything from, I'll make sure to update. In the meantime, it might help if those of us who were suckered into installing the update hit up their support and let them know. Y'know...in case they're inclined to think it's not a widespread issue, which it looks like it is.

Wow this is a bummer. Did anyone have a successful update?

Glad to hear the update is good-to-go for you. So maybe the update isn't bad in and of itself, but may be busting the camera due to some incompatibility with something installed on some phones, but not on others. What could that be? I have no idea, but I think I see a factory reset in my very near future.

Oh, wow. On the phone with ZTE "VIP" support. They are effectively telling me "you can try a reset" and if that doesn't work "not our problem".

Seriously, So If the update messes up the device you are on your own? ?
Sent from my A1P using Tapatalk

OK, a further update after being on the phone with ZTE support for 1 1/2 hours. It appears that the upgrade had been cancelled because of problems with the release. I was offered a new device with the older release if a reset did not fix the problem.
However ZTE support could provide no transparency on when a new release could/would be available and ZTE provide no way to put in a proper support ticket for tracking purposes.

@gflash2015 Well at least they offend a new device. I rolled the dice and updated just now, hoping it would resolve my light and proximity sensor bug (both stopped working last week). Smooth sailing so far no sign of any of the bugs mentioned. Didn't fix the sensors though. Camera launches much faster now.

does wifi calling work on networks otherthan t mobile or this update is oly for t mobile customers
there is an uninstallable app that was included in the update ZTE rewards it sucks that i cant remove it.

I just tried doing a factory data reset and that seemed to clear up the camera/screenshot issues. It also managed to keep the phone on the B25 build so WiFi calling for T-Mobile was added along with the double-tap of the camera button to launch the camera.

I decided not to do the update. But I just checked to see I still could and its saying my phone is currently up to date. So they did take the update away until they fix it. I don't know...

Update was messed up for me. I called tech support got a human in two rings. Reset the data via settings<apps<all<media storage then force stop and clear data.
This will wipe out your photos so make sure everything is backed up.
Everything works great now.
It took me only an 11 minute phone call.
The tech said there will be a patch out Monday. He also confirmed a marshmallow update is in the works.

OK, a further update after being on the phone with ZTE support for 1 1/2 hours. It appears that the upgrade had been cancelled because of problems with the release. I was offered a new device with the older release if a reset did not fix the problem.
However ZTE support could provide no transparency on when a new release could/would be available and ZTE provide no way to put in a proper support ticket for tracking purposes.
