Well, i decided to write a CarAudio app! I've been messing with car audio for years and i remember back in the day when i was less experienced (hell even today) that i had to go double check the wiring diagrams, or whip out my volt meter and calculator to get it tuned just right.
This app has almost everything you could want to install car audio, and lets face it. At least once or twice a year you get roped into helping a buddy install a system.
I will be updating the app's faq with any suggestions etc as i think of them or get them by you the users.
Here are the pics.. FREE no ads as always..
Let me know what you guys think..
Download Here:

This looks good. Let me know if you want to best test it out.
That looks pretty impressive man ... im pretty bad with math when it comes to ohm loads and bridging ,etc ..this will come in handy . Not to mention the UI looks fantastic . Do you have other apps out ? I noticed you said "as always" .
Cant wait for this app!
Thanks for the interest guys, the app has been submitted for certification and should be out by friday.
The other app i have on the market is BandWidth.
Wow.. most impressive (FYI: was an IASCA national judge, high-end custom car audio installer back in the day, etc).
To you sir... BRAVO!
wow great work
makes me want to crank up my car audio business again.
And its out!

Version 1.1 already pushed for certification as well!
will it be available in the German marketplace as well?
Thanks
It should be, i did world wide. Unfortunately the local is English though.
Guys, is this app available to you outside of USA?
When checking up on stats i noticed that i was only allowed to view Canada and USA for reviews..
I selected GLOBAL but it might have detected the local?
Someone Please Confirm.
Edit***
Confirmed. Somehow i only made it available to North and South america only!!!!
Ok guys, its out for all REGIONS now, it will start showing up in ~7 hours so tomorrow it should be out everywhere.
I was just watching the Google IO Keynote live stream (I know, everyone's ideal way to spend a nice afternoon), and I saw this company that was getting featured by Android called Ekata Systems who launched their app Tapestry at the show. It seems to be a synchronized slideshow between JB devices with some snazzy twists that I've never seen any app do. It works best when you're trying it with a friend/family member so there are at least two devices (phone and/or tablet) to highlight the features though. You can check out the interview here, and the app here.
Talk about bleeding edge...only available on Jelly Bean. It uses this new feature called WiFi Direct that creates a local P2P network between 1:N clients. I'm playing with it with my co-workers and it is pretty sweet.
Interesting! I can see how it would be good for other things, like presentations for businesses and in learning environments.
Funny you mention that because that was exactly the first thing I thought about, which is showing a corporate presentation, or teachers using it to share learning material with students. I'm sure with some tweaks it can easily be made to address those use cases.
Couldn't wait to try this out, seems like an excellent idea for showing photos on my phone without transferring (I have been experimenting with file explorers and ftp/smb serviers)
Ideal opportunity came this evening when my (stock) Nexus S received an OTA update to JB.
Unfortunately, although Tapestry installed, I couldn't get past the white screen with logo on. hmrph.
Side note: Nexus S upgraded to JB but existing ICS flash/bbc iplayer etc still works.

Does Nexus S w/ JB support WiFi Direct?
After investigation, no
I hadn't realised Wi-Fi direct was a hardware requirement, as opposed to a software thingy. The app page is not clear on that, and dev's website is non-existent as far as I can see.
sigh

I dug around a little bit, and I think the WiFi chip in Nexus S *can* support WiFi Direct, but the firmware/drivers have not yet included support for it. AFAIK WiFi Direct support is mostly a driver/firmware update. Sorry buddy. Another hook for the man to extract more $$$ from us to upgrade to new devices.
Yeah it seems that way. I've been checking out the xda Nexus S forums too.
Can't really afford to upgrade phone after forking out for N7. I was hoping they would complement each other very well, which is why I didn't buy galaxy nexus. They do work very well together as nifty phone and muscly tablet, both with JB.
It does. I have one. Root and ROM it. I will try this right now. I'll report back. I'll try with my SGSII as well as it does have it.

So I was watching All About Android podcast on TWiT.tv, and guess who they were featuring on this week's episode?!
to ba fair WiFi Direct was already available since ICS but not used it.... until now:
if you want to connect from android device to android device for transmitting media, check this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.budius.WiFiShoot
different from tapstry (that is a presentation app) WiFi Shoot is a direct share app, and works with ICS.
this was developed by yours truly, and I developed it exactly because I noticed there was nothing out there for WiFi Direct
I tested it between Nexus 7, Galaxy Nexus, Asus TF300 and Galaxy SII (stock ICS) and all worked fine.
The most problematic of those were the Galaxy Nexus that not always want to connect, but between N7-GalaxySII was flawless.
At the moment the app just works for photo and video but I'll be expanding more, if you guys fancy helping spreading the word about it, I'm really looking forward to see the downloads explode on it.

You are awesome! I was really upset that I couldn't use WiFi direct to transfer stuff between my N7 and my evo lte, even though they would connect together. I just downloaded your app and can't wait to see the progress you make as it gets updated!

I'm really looking forward to have it iron out the bugs and have more than 500.000 downloads... hehehe =]
Looks cool. I'll give it a shot with the N7 and the Evo 3D and let you know.

If anyone is interested in benchmarks, I just gave a try here using a standard TV episode file (170mb).
From network drive (samba) to Galaxy Nexus via AntTek Explorer: 3m:17s (slow, uh?)
From netword drive to my Winwdos PC: 45seconds (better)
From the Galaxy Nexus to a Galaxy SII: 16 seconds (WOW... FAST)
if anyone fancy doing the same kind of test and sharing the result, just to compare and say that I'm not lying because I'm the developer, it would be pretty cool.
WiFi Shoot not working between 2 N7 devices
I will be writing a WiFi Direct app in the near future so I am trying to understand the technologyby using the WiFi Shoot and the WiFi Direct Demo applications but I'm seeing the following behavior.
If I have no WiFi connections to an WiFi Access Point both applications will perform as expected.
If I have an active connection to a WiFi Access Point both applications will bet to the point where an "Invitation to connect" is issued from one device to the other but once "Accept" is selected the status on both devices stays "Available" and no connection is ever made.
I thought WiFi Direct on the Nexus 7 was supposed to work when connected via an Access Point to the outside world...
---------- Post added at 06:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 AM ----------
I'm trying to use WiFi Shoot between 2 Nexus 7 devices while connection to the internet via an Access point but it does work. I get the application started on both devices an I see the devices listed on the connect screen. I select a device on one screen and I see the "Invitation to connect" on the other screen but after I select "Accept" nothing happens. Both devices status stays available and no connection is formed. If I turn the connection off to the access point the application works.
Any ideas?
Hi guys,
is anyone with interested in beta test the app?
I started a new thread in the development section asking for Logcats if you're experiencing force close.
Also it's a cut down version of the .apk there to test part of the system.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30012554
any help will be great appreciated.
thanks.
i just got an auto-update request a few days ago for Tapestry, and apparently the app now claims support back to Gingerbread (I doubt using WiFi Direct). Now people who are not as fortunate as us to have Jelly Bean devices, ie the rest of my entire family, they are in luck. This app will come in handy for the upcoming holiday season. Not looking forward to seeing the in-laws though (don't worry my wife doesn't read the boards =)
do anyone knwos any reason that Whatsapp had been removed today from Windows Phones marketplace?
I hope the update is coming in!

Heard a few of my fellow dutchmen received version 2.8.8 which has more animations, faster performance and you can save chathistory per email.
I don't have it yet, but it sounds like a nice improvement.

Just google it and you'll find the answer
It seems Microsoft has told Whatsapp to disable the app from running all the time. The app uses too much energy which drains all the battery. So Whatsapp announced they will make a new version of the app available within 3 weeks. The bad thing though, there's a big chance whatsapp won't give real time push notification's after this update but will be refreshed on time bases. Which could mean you'll get messages 5 minutes late or anything like that. I'm not sure how the iOS version of whatsapp works? Does that one run all the time ass well, for push notifications I mean?
Let's just hope Real Time Push Notification's won't go away, because it would be a terrible cost. I'm glad Whatsapp improved speed on WP7 though. Whatsapp on my Lumia 920 works incredibly fast compared with the old version of whatsapp on 7.5. And this means it will go faster when the update is available.

just got answer from WhatsApp Support saying that it does not work well in WP8 and they do not know if and when it would return to the market. it seems this app is doomed for now. will have to find alternate app or move to IOS or Android
Hey Guys I've got this as an answer when I tried to ask them what was going on:
Hi,
Thanks for your message. Sorry, WhatsApp is not fully supported on Windows Phone 8 and we cannot comment on future timelines.
If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us. We would be happy to help!
I'm not quite familiar with the exact figure's of how much use is made of whatsapp amongst the competition (Android and IOS) But I think you could reason not having a decent operating Whatsapp would damage WP's position on the market seriously. Whatsapp is immensely popular in the region I live in. So why would Microsoft try to limit or block such a program?
Anyhow I got my Android 4.1 update on my htc one X on December 5th, which is a holiday over here in the Netherlands would be a good thing to have Whatsapp on WP8 before Christmas Eve. My Htc X8 is currently not more than just a palmtop which I can use as a phone...

Being away from the Android scene for quite a while so not too sure what is up with Sky Go.
It says Sky Go is not compatible with my Device (HTC One). Can't believe Sky needs to develop/update Sky Go for each single device. Anybody have any experience in Sky adding new devices?
Thanks

That's exactly what they have to do, happened with the One X, the S3 etc etc.....just a waiting game.
I'm currently running Pure Nexus and like many/most custom roms it has GA enabled but the other 2 phones in my house are stock Nexus 6P's and neither have received the update yet. One I signed up for the beta program and it downloaded and installed the 7.1.2 beta but no GA. Then I read today that it'll be a Google Play Services update that enables GA across MM/Nougat devices so I updated Play Services to the latest beta and still no GA. So, what do you know, what do you hear?? My wife and son really want GA but want to stay stock. Their tired of me messing with their phones.
Running stock, no root. Latest GPS and Google App and nothing

Thanks for the reply. Kind of strange that a weekend ago Google announced it wound start hitting capable phone starting last week in the US first yet it seems no one has received the update.
I'm on a Nexus 6P, never rooted, in the Beta program with 7.1.2. I'm also in the Google Play Services beta program. I have installed the Pixel Launcher from APK but otherwise stock. So far no Assistant. Live in the US.
Still no assistant here either. Are we missing something, or has Google not actually released the update like they said they would? I don't know of anyone that has actually received it to this point.
It's a server side switch and in typical Google form, they are turning it on very slowly. These trickle rollouts of new features are ridiculous. Either it's ready for release or it's not. If it is, release it to everyone. If it's not, then don't announce anything until it's ready.

I have been searching for anyone who has had it turned on. I follow a FB forum as well where every little update usually gets posted. Nothing there yet either. Hearing of others getting it turned on would at least be encouraging.

Thats what I was thinking. A week ago the tech sites were a buzz with "Google Assistant coming to most 6.0+ phones this week". Then nothing. All week. I'm still wondering a full week later why the tech sites are almost silent and no one is asking "Ok Google, what gives".

Someone in the FB group received Assistant about an hour after installing the latest Google App beta APK. I just tried it. Probably a coincidence, but at least someone has reported getting Assistant.
Isn't this linked to the google play services apk? If someone gets it, wouldn't posting the apk give it to all of us?

You have to have the correct Play Services but Google still has to "turn it on" on their end. That seems to be what is taking so long. As long as your Play Services are up to date you should be good. I entered the beta program for that as well. Still no Assistant though.
Mine was activated yesterday, right around the time I updated to the 7.1.1 March security patch. Don't know if there's a direct relation though.
I just got it today, I had everything updated and it showed up on its own.

Yay:victory:
Thanks for the replies everyone. Looks like we're very slowly but surely on our way. Still no GA love for the 2 stock 6P's in my house yet.
Edit: P.S. I didn't start this thread to complain, I was just wondering if I was the only one not receiving the GA update. I can only imagine what a mind blowing amount of mega giga google flops of computing power it must take for what must be thousands (if not tens of thousands) of questions per second via voice, interpret it, then send the answer back. All within a second or 2. For the thousands or tens or thousands of users asking/interacting at the same time. Mind boggling. It's probably a very slow rollout to be able to keep up and ramp up for the onslaught until they get a full picture of what the new computing/server farm needs will be.
My Nexus 6 has it, my wife's 6p does not.

Just got it guys. Running LOs, Google app ver. 6.13.25.21, and Google Play Services ver. 10.2.99, location Kosovo. It feels great not to do so many workarounds just to have it
East coast rolled out 32GB.
Still Waiting as well
I am still waiting as well. February 5 Security Patch, Google(Beta) 6.14.14.21.arm and Play Services 10.2.98.
Like so many others I signed up for Play Services Beta, but unlike the others I never got a bump up (update), and Still have not received the March Security Update.
But I swear if I don't side load most things from Google I am the last to get them.
