Since i couldnt post in the Android software dev forums, i will post here.
im making a webcam chat for android, and need testers with a nexus 7.
it is basically just a proof of concept at the moment, barely even a beta.
very minimal functionality, with some non-working features.
i would really appreciate it if people test this, and give feedback on what you do(nt) like, or would like to (not) see.
sorry i cant post "outside links",

Hey, PM and I can help u
pc compatible chat
i have uploaded an old chat which is compatible with the current droidchat proof of concept.
the "beta" droidchat will probably begin with a new framework and server code, which this will not be compatible with.
if you have flash player in your browser, here is a PC version.
feel free to make your own rooms and invite your friends. you will be in the same room whether youre on pc or mobile!
PC version:
whohacked.me/oldchat_2010/
this is a chat i made for a client back in 2010 when i wasnt so savvy at flash, so it sucks ... the new one will be much better!
I have started a room called xdachat if anyone wants to join, for testing purposes. I will be leaving it on.
I have to say, the only things that jump out at me as problems is text under keyboard (op already mentioned this), needs to be multitask compatible, and better interaction with keyboard settings such as auto capital, which does not seem to work within the chat app.
Having said that, I actually really like the layout. Simple, intuitive and to the point. Sometimes, too much crap can be stuffed in to an app, whick can convolute its purpose. This app does not have that problem. Really liking the ease and simplicity.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium
awesome, i appreciate the feedback.
i am still working on the new framework, so it might be a few days before any updates. i will post any updates and new releases here.
i will be periodically popping in and out the room for testing. leave the room open on the PC if you want, hopefully more of you will come in so youre not testing by yourself. testing with just one person in the room may not bring out all the problems.
please keep testing, spread the word and bring your friends. the more feedback, the better.
thanks again.
P.S.
i am open to any design suggestions. i can do the code, but not the graphics.
if anyone would like to help develop this app, i could use some help. you must be proficient in ActionScript 3, and/or Apache FLEX (formerly Adobe FLEX).
the server is written in Adobe Flash Media Server's "Server-Side ActionScript".

eventually... this was my original plan, but all i have atm is a nexus 7 to test with. so i am waiting for it to work properly before i mess with the layout.
i will also work on a portrait layout, and add an option to auto-rotate the nexus 7's camera when you change from landscape to portrait.

Cool deal. The alternate layout was more of an afterthought. I am running room name xdachat on the pc now, so it can remain continuous. If anyone wants to join in, I will be there. I may be away from the pc for a few here and there, but it will be open.

Surprisingly we dont yet have monitor mode, airsniffing, or aircracking capabilities within android. The drivers are open source and require some modifications for these features to be taken advantage of. How hard would it be for the dev's here to rewrite the wireless drivers to enable monitor mode? Also wouldnt it be neat to have a android/debian mix'ed rom where we can apt-get things right to the phone instead of a chrooted environment? It would be cool to see some more hacking at this and other things. Let's unleash the wireless functionality of these devices.
It would be cool to get aircrack working on our devices, people with iphones got monitor mode working, just not injection. From what I have seen injection is possible for us, so whats keeping us back from unleashing it?
Also Metasploit Mobile would be a killer addition to android if it only requires python
Ok It seems monitor mode is possible on the bcm4329 chipset which is in our devices and needs a rewrite

For once it will allow the phone to act as a packet sniffer. Pretty useful if you are into monitoring network activities
I'd love to see a port for our phones.
Yes, this is exactly why I made a thread asking for help getting Debian running on our phones
BTW which someone already has done and has a how-to guide here http://blog.coralic.nl/2010/08/17/ubuntu-on-samsung-galaxy-s-android/
Don't want to lead anyone off with that link, just wanted to plug that in in case anyone else wanted to try it.
But truly this is where the true FUN is, you know. I would love to use a wireshark like type app or aircrack for that matter. I would die to have apt-get built in to the OS.
I have actually been considering working on a project like this for a few weeks. I'll see what's involved next week when I'm on vacation. Ultimately I was hoping to port something similar to kismet to the Galaxy S phone with nice GUI for wireless network penetration testing.
If anyone else has systems development experience and wants to work with me on this, PM me and we can get in touch.
To be honest with you guys.
It would be best to get in contact with HD MOORE of Metasploit or the authors of this software and request for a port.
The metasploit port woul be easy. as it only requires python.
I am personal friends of his.

Metasploit, if it only requires Python, is probably trivial to port to Android. I'm personally interested in working on Aircrack, Monitor Mode, and Packet Injection. These are very different projects and perhaps should be two separate threads.

Correct. Get those things ported to android. and his frame work will work. Which includes WEP cracking.
I think this is one of my most favorite threads so far. I'm excited to see what comes of all this, I too would love to see metasploit ported to Android, how pwerful would our precious little vibrants be then?
I have been wondering when a project like this would happen. Thinking of all the possibilities makes me giddy.

Hi,
i played this weekend with a couple android devices and i liked the contact app on the samsung galaxy tab. is it possilbe to get it on the desire, or is it special made from/for samsung?
cant find it in the market...
What's so special about it?I've never seen it

i think it's the same as in the SGS...the contact application is very nice..it allows you to swipe right or left in order to make a call or send a sms.. i think if there is a way to import this in to DHD it would be very nice
and i also like the style and layout, but will probably look very tiny on the small display of the dhd.
but i like it. better than the htc one....
Its basically like the iPad's contact app, in landscape mode it shows the contact list down the left side and when a contact is selected it fills the right hand side of the screen with the contacts details. Is that what your after?
yep,
i also like contapps, like the portrait view with the name under it, but unforunately it sorts the contacts only by first name and i would like to have it with last name...
Im not a massive fan of contapps, however i can see the appeal. i would definatly like the Tab's contact app though, and i think with the DHD's 4.3 inch screen, it would work pretty well.
right now contapps is buggy, but i like the idea, the design is a diffrent story, but maybe they enable themes...i like the facebook integration in cotapps more than with the standard dhd people app and facebook for thc sense, because, this f**** always messes up my contact pictures...
i just would like to have the "updates" from facebook not the pictures and anything...
but i think the conact app from the galaxy tab is only for samsung...its not a open app for everybody....
Off, u can always override pic of contacts in edit mode,htc sense.
-- sent from htc z using xda app
yes i can overide it until the next sync, than i have all this nice facebook pictures back from facebook for htc sense or twitter for htc sense...*bullsh..*
i am looking for a goot contacts app who still does integrate stuff like facebook and twitter but let me choose what to do. like in contapps, i can choose which picture gets overwritten by the facebook one...twitter is not yet integrated, but i like the foursquare integration too...
i even looked at sony eriscson xperia 10 today, the integration of the networks look better there, but i could test if it does the same overwritting like htc facebook.
Had a unpacked (preproduction) Galaxy Tab rom laying around from my Galaxy S days (Way.. back) Here's the contact app from it, I assume it doesn't run on the DHD, but who knows, maybe someone can make it work

Nice app you have there. I like the way you advertise it on your website.
"Dude, I’m so
bored with my mobile
contacts…"
"Try contapps,
it’s free!"
Lol... keep up the great work.
EDIT: in dutch your app and company name sounds a bit funny. In dutch "kont" means "ass" .The pronunciation of "cont" is the same as "kont" in dutch, so in Dutch it sounds like ass apps
I suggest a fusion with a company named "kick" for the dutch app market

Just trying contapps, very nice i have a few suggestions which i think would work nicely
Using contapps too, but I don't like that I cant sort the contacts by last name and it shows me a lot of the items twice, like home and work address, birthday and so on, I think it's because, I have all my contacts in phone and synced with google too. also would like to link the contacts with other social sites and an overview of it in the info section

I am currently working on a version of my app, The Elements, specifically for the Adam and similar tablets. Currently this app is available in the Demo section or the Android Market. You should be able to transfer it to your tablet if the market is not available on your tablet. Because this will transfer straight into the finished product it does cost 2.99 (price libel to increase with introduction of Wolfram|Alpha API). For those of you who check it out, please send me your thoughts and let me know what you think I need to fix or add. Thanks.
Been doing a ton of work on this lately. Spending all my spare time on it basically. So far I've got the List section near finalization. It still has work, yes, but you can get a pretty good idea of what its going to look like when its done.
Again, please send me all comments. All are welcome.

*Information highlights (click on things like Atomic Weight to see what this is)
*Swipe navigation through elements
*Images of or relating to all elements
*Elements information from Wikipedia and Wolfram|Alpha
*List View is now functioning.
*Classic View is now functioning.
*Calculations, more of which if I can find I will add
*Anions and Cations

It looks cool, but the Market won't let me install it on either my Droid running a Gingerbread ROM or my NI Adam running Beast.
Until fragments are added to everything below Honeycomb, only Honeycomb devices will be able to run it. Notion Ink is working on getting Honeycomb source this week so hopefully we'll be able to run it on our Adam's soon. Sorry about that.

Hi everyone. Im one of the developers of SwitchMe, and app that allows multiple secure logins into separate installations of android on a single device. The pr is after the break.
I really need a few people to check into some issues people on some Xoom ROMs have been experiencing. There are some warnings involved:
- testers must perform a full nandroid backup before using the app, it is not our responsibility if you start getting boot loops or whatnot
- if you report results or bugs, please use the "Write to us" function in the app whenever possible, and always describe the issue in the header of the logs you send
- if you post here, be sure to include your device type and rom
- if you have apps installed on sd, be sure to mention that as well
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of an
account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain few apps,
others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data.
Why is this functionality useful?
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Gaming – with multiple installations of Android on a single device, you can now play online MMOs as different characters.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles without games or instant messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
These of course are only suggestions - there are plenty of other uses for the functionality SwitchMe offers.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.switchme
The Lite version allows the creation of two profiles, enough to test on.
Screens:
This is an awesome idea- I'll check it out when my device returns!
Is it on a bogus journey or an excellent adventure?

Yeah, lots of nice features. Been checking out some of the other Apps that ftgg99 is offering as well. I must say they are very handy. Been looking for some apps like that.
I'm starting to have problems with this app.
Not sure if its linked to the latest cm9 build for the xoom.
So going to try and use an older one and see if its fine.
Using the lockscreen feature when tablet is on charge in its dock.
After around 20mins this happends and the tablet freezes have to use vol + plus power to restart it.
I/ServiceDumpSys( 1637): dumping service [account]
hmm it only happens on the latest nightly. 17-2 is fine.
EDIT- If anyone is getting this put it back on charge and it will show the switchme unlock screen. so no restart is needed
The lockscreen is pretty standard, so probably its the nightly - next time it happens and you can wait it out, send logs please!
Android 4.2 doesn't even seem well thought out, let alone designed. Is Google playing the Apple game, tying us into their universe and making us take whatever the deliver?
Do they even care how many apps won't work or have to have multiple purchases to support their multi-user "security"? Should have just left the multi-user thing to 3rd party devs. They fail on this, IMO.

Google doesn't care.. Remember when 4.1.1 broke a bunch of paid apps by sticking them in the asec folder which wasn't mounted at startup? So since it wasn't mounted Android never saw the apps during boot and paid keyboards and widgets disappeared after a reboot. MONTHS went by before it was addressed. Meanwhile developers of those paid apps had angry customers and money lost because of Google
This will be the same song and dance.. Google is getting very sloppy with development and communication with developers pre-release seems to not exist.
I love it.

Stop stereotyping. People are always so quick to hate on Americans. Yes there are bad Americans...but every country has them. Even your country. But I'm not going to go there since I happen to like most people from the UK that I've encountered...it would be unfair to label your entire nation as arrogant, ungrateful, and judgmental because of your behavior.

But what i am seeing mostly is app compatibility Being Broke.. This is something that will be fixed Quickly by most Developers.
Android is and always will be "A WORK IN PROGRESS". My opinion only but if you want bland and safe sell your nexus 7 to me for .50 cents and get a ipad mini.
People who are having issues Please go to the developers web site and let them know your app is not working properly .Give them exact details. You can do the same to google at groups.google.com. Just be Patient
Now my GRIPE The multi user cluster (word here im not typing) as others said was not well though through by google. My guess is they made a date promise and pushed out only part of the Feature.. Typical Google.
It will get better and it will happen quite soon.. Lets just hope...
Take a deep breath relax and say to yourself.. Its only a tablet its only a tablet its only a toy tablet... ..
Thanks for Reading... :fingers-crossed:
I suppose YMMV, but I love 4.2. Smoother than 4.1, and nice features. The only thing that really seems half-assed is the multiuser support.
What is your problem with multi-user? For me and my daughter it is working great - could not be better.
I did add my account to her user ID Play store so she could see the apps we own and install the link.
Performance is good - all our preferences and accounts are separated - and I really can't think of any other features I would want.

I haven't played with multi-user yet, can you add the account just for the play store and not have someone access the gmail account associated with it?
That's my gripe, I want to be able to for ex, have my nephew play with my tablet and all the games etc, but don't want him to access to my gmail etc. I thought this was perfect for that but then read about the app issue. Also, I assume there is no type of limited user, in that a secondary account can still uninstall apps, but at least they can't delete files from the other users home dir.
Yes - my account is just added to my daughter's play store. Open play store and look at add account option.
Works perfectly to give her access to the apps we share.
NO shared Gmail.
Forgot something important:
When you add a second account to play store, you are given a bunch of items you can synch, like contacts.
Uncheck them all!

i had a valid post in this thread, it seems to have been removed ........yet you left the dude saying "love it".
cheers for that :confused
and im sorry but why has this guy just been thanked by 10 people? the post has nothing to do with anything...... shenanigans shenanigans i tells ya!!:silly:
Stick mount wasn't a feature of 4.1. It was hacked in which is why you had to be rooted and use an app. You'll get USB support again. Multiuser support screwed with the storage. That's all.
New tweaks are a little rough around the edges but will be smoothed out soon enough. Give it time, damn guys. I personally think its no better or worse then 4.1.2. We just have a few new toys now.

4.2 = 1st time I've truly experienced "butter"...
Sure, I kinda miss the bells & whistles I had on Codename Android, and I'll definitely check out any forthcoming 4.2 updates, but scrosler's stock, rooted, deodexed ROM is far & away the smoothest, quickest ROM I've used on any Android device. Stock kernel, no tweaks, plain vanilla is for me for now. Way better Google experience. OK, I sideloaded the AOSP browser for Flash, but that's it. Chrome is much more responsive on 4.2 than 4.1.2 - Everything is noticeably quicker - I even detect better wireless response. Your results may vary, but I'm not going back!

Wouldn't a factory image flashing work?

Well, I do belive that you are right. I also feared (and expected, to tell the truth) that something EXACTLY like this would happen. I tried NOT to update the system, but why the hell did they keep forcing it when we obvoiusly do not want it? And probably, they must have known that it will broke a lot of things...
Just to explain: for me, there was a message with three buttons: upgrade, more info (which leads to seme text and bigger "upgrade" button and "later", but that "later" means only "ask at next screen unlock" which made the tablet realy hard to use. So, what choice have I had?
