Chromecast Content Providers (native/official) - Google Chromecast

I thought we could use a page to track what content providers are available, announced, or rumored for the chromecast, and what have been rumored or announced. So please share and contribute to this spreadsheet! I think I got everything in that has been revealed so far, but please check my work and add more if you know of them.
Chromecast Content Providers

Spreadsheet no open to public
FYI:
It appears that this spreadsheet is no longer accessible to the general public. Is it not being used? If not, perhaps it should be removed from the index post.

Thats probably why I've been spammed with requests to join today. It is still being used. Can you access it now? It looks alright on my end, I wonder if someone else was messing with the permissions. I restricted the ability to change the visibility to just me now.

Yep. I can access it again.
Thanks!

Had to remove public editing to stop spammers and vandals. If anyones willing to be an editor to keep it up to date and watch out for problems let me know and I'll add you.

May I suggest you add a column to differentiate if it's an official or unofficial feature?

I don't know what you mean. I have a tab that shows currently supported and one that shows ones that are coming.

Sorry, I didn't notice the 2nd tab! It makes the work you've done much more useful. Thanks!
I guess I meant that there is slim chance that some of the upcoming apps may never be allowed to release on Google Play, such as the MyCast app by Koush (Dropbox to Chromecast) or Chromecast integration in BubbleUPnP. We may then have to download them from non-official sites.

amAze GPS

This is a java based voice navigation gps app, and is available in java, but not currently for the G1. Short of asking the company to produce a G1 version, does anyone know how to code this for a G1?
unless you have the source code at hand it aint gonna happen.
you've already suggested the only way to get it ported
If you bother to look at the bottom of the official page http://www.amazegps.com/welcome.php you'll notice "Coming Soon: Android" so you don't need to port it yourself.
and most importantly they have support for Australia! hehe
Any idea what the pricing plan for amAzeGPS is? Is it a one-time fee? Monthly subscription?
Ah...nevermind....says free. Looks like it is ad supported.
Some of the video is nice though.

not my intention to make anyone feel stupid, sorry if it sounded like that.
The developer states in the Android forum on that site that he is NOT currently working on an Android product, and intended to remove the 'Coming Soon' from the front page.
Sorry.

Well that sucks.
don't be too disappointed. i gave the amaze software a go here recently and it was less than accurate. i gave it a simple route in a major city (houston) involving only 3 necessary roads all on major corridors and it couldn't foot the bill. anyone else have similar problems?

Is there a Dropbox Client for Android?

Is there a Dropbox Client for Android? I know that www.getdropbox.com/iphone works, but is there an actual app?
Not that I know of. I would like a client for Android, as well...
For a starter it would be good to at least have Dropbox as an option in send to (share) menu.
I bought Discover Pro from the market and found that it has a pretty decent Box.net feature. I'll email the developer and ask him to add dropbox support.
Good to know that there might be something out there. Though even if he added support for dropbox, I could not get the app till paid apps come to the UK.
I think that this support is available in the free version as well.
Does anyone have an update on this....?
I am using SugarSync and I am very happy with it...
there is a thread here:

I think they're preoccupied with kissing apple fanboys' a*ses by releasing new updates for iPhone app rather than doing something useful such as making an API.

Dropbox CLI Daemon?
Hello, I've also been trying to find a solution into synchronizing my files on Android with those on my PC.
I found this thread on Dropbox's forum:
http://forums.getdropbox.com/topic.php?id=2543
Would it be possible to get running the Dropbox daemon in a rooted phone ?
Cheers,
well, according to this thread, there's a closed beta on the API

Looks like Dropbox is hiring someone to work on the client:
Dropbox - Android Developer
http://dropbox.theresumator.com/apply/eq08Lm/
Role & Responsibilities
* Lead development and testing of a native Dropbox app for Android mobile devices.
* Depending on level of interest, potentially develop Dropbox apps for other mobile platforms, or assist in ongoing Dropbox API development.

* Work with designer & product lead to determine the look-and-feel and functionality of the app(s).
I Syn my Dropbox folder usin Sugarsync... not the best way but it works.
i have just received this mail:
Have you ever wanted to use your Dropbox but didn't have a computer nearby? Dropbox's mobile website (http://m.dropbox.com) makes it happen. With Dropbox mobile, you can browse and open files in your Dropbox directly from your phone or mobile device's browser.

Are there any Chromecast specific web sites out there?

I just got my Chromecast and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. But the downfall that I see is that there doesn't seem to be anything similar to the Roku Store as a central source of information about new apps that support the device or hacks or general news or whatever. And there doesn't seem to be a way to really search the Android Play Store for apps that support the device. Does anyone know of a blog or web site devoted to announcements of the latest apps that support Chromecast? Or is there maybe an Android app that curates the latest news?

Thanks. I'd seen that link early on before there was a lot of other stuff posted on it. I have subscribed to it now though. I'm looking for something akin to AndroidCentral or something like a Drippler app for Chromecast. Surprised that no one has even registered CromeCastCentral.com yet. It would be a great URL for a blog on the topic.

Seems like so much of the stuff out there is developer/hacker related or otherwise technical in nature and not oriented to the consumer yet. I'm sure it will come though. There just needs to be something with an RSS feed that announces firmware and hardware updates, tips and tricks, and new programs or apps that are now supporting Chromecast.

Cool! I think one needed tutorial is playlists. For example, how one can go about taking control from another device and changing what is playing versus adding to a play queue from another device. Even adding to a YouTube playlist from the computer is something I haven't figured out yet. Sending an entire YouTube playlist is fairly easy, but how do you add to it? How can someone ELSE add to it? IDK. But it is a perfect topic for a tutorial!

Create custom apps with root without registration with SDK?

Hey,
So I'm too cheap to pay the $5 registration fee, I'm wondering that now I've got root on the Chromecast if there's a way around it to launch custom applications from a URL directly or run a separate app database server locally that I can control? Has there been any previous work in this area?
Cheers,
My offer to help any aspiring developer get an app published still stands... It'll obviously require a little input from you, but nothing more revealing than URLs for your sender and receiver, which are bound to be accessible to the internet anyway.
But if you'd rather work with complete independence perhaps you could catch a url a receiver app uses and then overwrite your Chromecast's hosts file to redirect it to your own, personal, sweeter.

I think what he is saying in essence is it doesn't matter who does the registering the issue is it will never get approved because the app is targeting rooted devices....
Perhaps Team Eureka can help him out by adding his app to the custom Whitelist.

I think my original translation worked best, OP has root and is wondering if the Google whitelist can be circumvented. I re read it to be sure,but OP can make the final call.
Is there a custom whitelist? How does one do that? I'd hate to imagine trying to rewrite Google validation servers from scratch. But at least now you can create unpublished, hidden apps, so Google won't need to censor them for questionable stuff that would otherwise appear in that weird App Store they have going.

For the Team-Eureka whitelist, we will publish any app developers want published (at no charge obviously). The only issue is that only rooted devices will be able to use the application. For more information, PM me directly.

224444 is being used to send text message notifications by Google to their list of different users who have opted-in to their SMS notification program. Many websites, mobile apps, and other businesses use their short codes to notify their users of current deals being offered, promotions, coupons, when tables are ready at their restaurants, password changes, and other time sensitive information related to their individual accounts. This is to keep their users informed with up to date information, give their subscribers coupons and deals, and also to verify that the user attempting to make changes to their account is the verified account owner.
Maybe at some point, you registered your phone number to one of Google services (maps, youtube, etc) and they want to keep you informed.
On the other hand, if you didn't do any of this, it may be possible that you accepted some bad cookies or notifications from surfing the internet. In that case, you can uninstall and reinstall your browser. Hope that this could give you an answer to your question ?. If not, you may have to do some researches of your own Google account security settings.
