Hey guys
I just published my first serious app on the android market and would like to give some of you the opportunity to test it for free. edit: sorry, i cant give away any more test licenses. but i released a trial app, so everyone can now test it for free
The app is called Delayed Lock and simply delays the activation of the secure lockscreen for a user definied amount of time or while connected to WiFi/Bluetooth. You can choose to start the activation timer whether on the last successful unlock or on display off time and immediately reenable the lockscreen through a notification in the status bar or a widget.
Main Features:
Delayes the requirement to enter pattern/PIN/password again after succesfully unlocked once
No lockscreen while connected to certain WiFi network or Bluetooth devices
Time delay since "Screen off" or since "Last unlock"
Quickly re-enable the lock through the Android notification bar or a widget
Widgets & Shortcuts: Toggle Lock, Screen off, Screen off & Lock, Enable / Disable DelayedLock
Free plugins: Disable lockscreen while at certain locations or use the Tasker app to control the lockscreen
automatically wipe the device after several failed unlocks
auto disable USB-debugging on rooted devices (on 4.0 - 4.2.1, not necessary on 4.2.2+)
FAQ:
Here: http://j4velin-systems.de/faq/index.php?app=dl
General limitations:
Does not work if your Exchange policy requires a PIN! (might work if your device is rooted though)
Pattern lock & FaceUnlock require root on Android 4.0+
Does not work on all devices, see section Device incompatibility
Requires root if full device encryption is enabled
Incompatible with NoLED, No Lock & some other apps
Please use the "Uninstall" option from within the app to uninstall it
Device incompatibility:
Some HTC devices: Pattern lock might not work
Some Samung devices: Notification bar might be accessable even in locked state
Samsung Galaxy S5: User reported that after 3 days, the device does not accept the PIN/password any more. Make sure you enable the "Android Device Manager" to remotely change your password in case this happens! Also try to disable the fingerprint feature before setting up Delayed Lock
Plugins:
Location Plugin: Locks when leaving certain locations
RemoteLock Plugin: Locks the device when receiving a SMS containing a defined keyword
Tasker Plugin by Ingenium13

I can't find it on the Market...Is it only for 2.2 Android?

oh yeah i forgot to mention that it requires at least Android 2.2 at the moment.
but I'm also beta testing the same app but for older Android versions, so if you would like to try that I'll pm you the apk

Damn... Is it possible to make it work with 2.1???

The app the QR code points to is a paid app. There is no free version.

just pm me your gmail address so i can send you the apk and enable a test license. i will also release a free/trial version, but i havent thought about the restrictions yet

Thanks, but it is not because of the half buck you want for your app, it is not even about commercial apps - I have no problems with them.
But I will have problems with this forum if it (or parts of it) turns into a support forum for commercial apps. And your app qualifies as commercial, since, as things stand now, it is not available in another form.

oh I'm sorry, it didnt want to violate the board rules. i was just looking for some guys who would like to help me test my app on more acutal devices (emulator kinda sucks on lockscreen stuff) and didnt know where to find them except here ^^
i dont think i'm able to delete the thread, but if a moderator reads this...

Yes, one of the prerequisites for having a thread here is that there must be at least a free/crippled version for the members to test. Having a sorely paid or individually selected sent app is not allowed iirc.

im willing to test on my mytouch4g running 2.2.1

Really annoying how the trial version displays that screen after unlocking. But it did get me to buy the app Good price too.

yeah, that was my intention
it's the lowest possible price in the market, hope to get my registration fee back that way ^^

J4velin -
Thanks. I'm actually trying to import my Pathfinder RPG books into Alkindo and of course my screen timed out. Luckily, I'd already installed DelayedLocker and BLAM! no having to swipe the screen unlocker or type in my pin.
I'm on a TrulyEpicRebirth 1.5 with Theme 1.7 - and it works nicely.
This is better in the longer term regarding time than NoLock, as that completely removes the lock swipe (not sure if that app also works with the password/pin). Something that allows me to quickly re-require the swipe/password and auto re-lock would be nice (especially something that could fit in my GoLauncher [or other home program] dock).

well, to quickly reactivate the lockscreen you can click on the notification in the status bar or use the widget in the paid version.
a shortcut for the launcher docks is also a good idea, i will keep that in mind

Has anyone else had trouble uninstalling the free version of this program? That screen after unlocking my phone is rather annoying and every time I try to uninstall it, it fails.

just read the app description in the market, the text under 'Revoke locking permission' in the settings or the 'FAQ' in the first post here:

FAQ:
I can't uninstall the app!!
You have to revoke the locking permissions first. Therefore go to the android security settings and tap 'select device administrators'

i just changes some stuff in the app and it should now be compatible down to android 1.5.
therefore i need some testers with a device running an android version lower than 2.2. pm me your gmail address if you're interested

Hi there,
I've just sent you an e-mail about the 1.1 version and WidgetLocker.
Regards,
Steve

Hi, I'm excitedly trying the app as I've ben waiting for this ever since Froyo destroyed my previous solution.
Is it possible to distinguish between the pattern lock screen and the swipe-to-unlock screen. Personally I like the swipe to unlock to protect me from accidental power ons (and I have trackpad to unlock to make it even easier). However, I want to extend the time before the lock pattern comes on from 15 minutes to 1 hour.
Your app seems to elimiante both locks screens in that period.

I also personally like the swipe to unlock.
I can small problem with Cyberion Voice Dial, can't dial voice when phone is locked, can you make option to switch lock off when paired BT device is connected?

[Android 2.3+] Data Easy PRO (DATA SWITCH SAVE BATTERY EASY)

Stay in sync, save battery, data traffic and money.
WARNING for Android LOLLIPOP users: Mobile Connection Cycle Works only on Rooted Devices.
One of the functions that use a lot of battery is the data connection.
Using this app you can also save 30% of battery; this means that at the end of the day you can have 30% battery instead of a fully discharged battery.
This application is useful to save battery, data traffic and money, also limit the device radiation and stay in sync.
It allows you to cyclically connect to the Mobile Network or to the Wifi one to synchronize e-mail, appointments, contacts, program data, etc.
With the "Cycle when Screen Off, Connect on Screen On" option Checked you can have Automatic Connection when Screen is On and Cyclically Connection when Screen is Off; you can forget to switch the connections!
You can also delay the termination of the connections when you turn off the screen; this is useful for example when you are using a Chat App and you're waiting for a quick response.
Review on xda-developers Portal​
With the "Cyclically connect regardless screen state" option checked you can Cyclically Connect when you are using the device for example, while you're watching a movie.
If a Wifi connection is available it will take precedence over the Mobile one, to save data traffic and money in case of not-flat rates.
You can also enable sounds and vibration alerts, enable and disable notifications (PRO), set start at the boot, suspend the cycle and enable connections when the device is Plugged, set the type of connection you want when you turn on the screen or the device is Plugged or Unplugged and set the times at which the cycle is suspended.
The application installs some WIDGETS that allows you to activate the cyclic connection or turn on/off quickly the Mobile and Wifi Connections.
To be synchronized and save battery power, for example, set "Activate Data Connection" every 10 minutes and "Keep Data Connection Alive" for 45 seconds.
Advanced features will be developed in the future...

hey mate! I love your app, it's the best battery saver in my opinion. but recently I have had some issues with network connection. When I switch the screen back on and cycle stops there is no network connection available, even though I status bar shows all bars and internet icon like if it was working. As soon as I reboot its fine, but after some time it happens again((( I'm on CM10 HOX. Please do something)))

Hi, first of all thank you, and since it is Christmas, I wish you happy holidays.
As for your problem, in my tests it never occurred.
My App has been tested by me on Samsung Galaxy S2 Gingerbread and Galaxy Note II Jelly Bean, both Samsung Stock firmware.
It could be a compatibility problem with CM10 or a problem with your device that might be in error turning on and off very frequently the connections.
If you do not use my program it never happens?
Try disabling my app and turning on and off very frequently the connections.
Try to use only the mobile connection (sometimes the wifi has problems) and set up a cycle long enough (at least every 10 minutes for 60 seconds of connection).
You can also try to ask to CM10 team.
As soon as possible I will install CM10 on Galaxy S2 and I will do the test.
Sincerely

[Android 4.4+] Low-Powered Pedometer With Material Design

Hello everyone, I have been working on a beautiful pedometer app with new material design that keeps track of how many steps you've taken to promote a healthier lifestyle. Be it walking, jogging, hiking, running, or any other activity, you'll find this app useful in keeping track of your stats. How this is different from most other pedometer apps is that with the hardware step sensor, this app uses almost no additional battery so you can keep it running all day. In my testing I noticed no difference in battery life between a day with Pedometer running and a day without it.
From the Google Play description:
Features:
- Set your goal! It is recommended that you take 10000 steps a day. This app allows you to set a goal that's right for you, and displays your current progress.
- Track your progress with a detailed list of history entries. Unlike other apps, Pedometer's history feature will keep track of all the info from every day you walk.
- Split counter for activities! Create and save activities so you can separate how many steps you took in that one jog from the rest of the day. Useful for tracking progress over a particular activity rather than throughout the whole day. Free version is limited to the creation of 5 activities, purchase pro to unlock unlimited activities.
- Colorful themes: choose one of 6 colorful themes that use the new material design. Dark themes coming soon.
- Low powered: Unlike other pedometer apps, this one will not affect your battery life at all.
- Achievements and leaderboards: sign in with your Google+ account to unlock both single and multi day achievements and compete with your friends in leaderboards!
- More than just steps: Pedometer also shows you how far you walked and how many calories you have burned today.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There is also a pro version you can buy if you'd like to support me. This pro version currently adds a distance counter, so you can see how far you've walked all day. I plan on adding more pro-only features in the future, such as a widget or custom themes. But don't worry, the free version will still be perfectly capable of serving as your daily pedometer. If a feature is extremely popular within the pro version I'll consider adding it to the free version as well.
Requirements:
- Devices with a hardware step sensor, such as Nexus 5, Moto X, or Galaxy S5. Most recent high-end devices will also have this sensor. The hardware step counter makes it possible to keep the pedometer active without any additional battery drain.
- Android 4.4 KitKat or newer: The latest version of Android provides APIs to utilize that hardware step counter
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Downloads: Free version, Pro version ($2.99)
I have used only three permissions. One is start on boot. This is used to start counting as soon as you start the device. The other two are write (and therefore read) external storage. This is used solely for the purpose of exporting logs to assist with debugging if the need arises. Don't worry, your data is safe, and this app will not be sending away any of your information.
If you have any questions of suggestions feel free to contact me, I try to respond within the same day.
* * * * * * * * * * *
V2 and Material Design
In the recent Pedometer V2 update I completely rewrote the app with material design in mind. This rewrite squashed most if not all bugs from previous version, and includes several beautiful new themes following Google's Material Design guidelines. However, due to several limitations, the apks uploaded on the Play Store are not able to use the Android L APIs and consequently are missing a few L-only features such as elevations and the ripple effect. I hope that once L is officially released Google will release a compatibility library and these UI enhancements are able to make their way to all devices. However, for now, if your device is running Android L preview, and you would like to enjoy true material elements, I have uploaded the apks compiled using API level L.
Download links for Android-L version: Free, Pro
Note: Both the free and pro version are available for download here for free. However, the pro version will verify the license with Google Play servers on launch. To ensure pro features are enabled, please purchase the pro version on the Play Store. Otherwise pro versions will be disabled and the app will function fine with the feature set of the free version.

It says there is an error in package parsing. CM 4.4.4
Are there incompatibility issues that you haven't written?

Not working with Galaxy S5
Hi,
I have installed your app on my galaxy S5 it only detects (roughly) 1/10 of the steps, compared to S Health or Google Fit.
It is sad because I really love the low battery consumption, and would like to switch to CM12 (losing thus S Health) and don't like Google Fit because italways needs location history enabled.
Are you planning to support samsung phones?

[APP][Android 7 Nougat][Quick Settings][Nexus 6P] QuickTile - Android 7 QuickSettings

Hi all,
a couple of days ago, I started a similar thread within the Nexus 5X forum, but users asked me to post it here, too. So here is the original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/themes-apps/app-quicktile-android-7-quick-settings-t3443812
*******************
Hi all,
I tested the Android 7 Beta for a couple of weeks on one of my testing devices. One of my favorite new features is the new and improved Quick Settings screen and especially the possibility to add a custom tile.
Eventually I hacked together a little app to add some additional features and fire multiple activities from a custom Quick Settings tile just for my personal use .... after using this app for some time, I realized that this might be interessting for other users, too. So I put some more time and effort into this and developed a full-fledged app to improve the Quick Settings .... and here it is:
QuickTile https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.widgapp.quicktile

Tutorial:

It´s a full-fledged app, so it contains an in-app purchase to remove Ads and an activity count limit ... However, I do have some Promo codes for the app, so just pm me and I will send you one (while supplies last).
Feedback welcome!
*** Android 7 Nougat exclusive ***
*** Android 7 BETA *** Root features BETA ***

Update 0.9 is available via Google Play :good:

* Multiple Tiles supported
* German translation added
* Lots of minor improvements and fixes

Hi,
sure I can send you a promo code, but these codes are integrated with the Google Play IAP api. You use a code as your payment instrument ---> means: instead your credit card or paypal account you choose "Redeem Code" and type in this promo code (all within the standard IAP process) ....So, if IAP is not supported in your country, are you able to redeem this code ?

Oh I mixup your app with other tiles app, just tired your one, toggle with the function perfectly.
However would you let us to choose to reflect a status of on or off in term of the tile in light or dim, I'm sorry for my bad English.
I'm trying to say if I made a data toggle, when I press it, it's on, but i can't get the status from your tile that the data toggle set on or off, I know it will tell from the status bar. However, if I toggle the synchronization, I have no way to know whether I'm on or off the sync unless I check my sync status inside the settings.

The mobile data toggle works for you and you want a mobile data status feedback within the tile. Right ?
QuickTile is designed to enable every user to fire multiple activities with different purposes. A settings status feedback is, from a technical point of view, not a problem, BUT it only makes sense for simple settings tiles with only one setting. So, I´m not sure if and how I should implement a status feedback .... This point is on my "think about it" list for a long time, but I didn´t find a good solution for this, yet .....
One Argument is, that if you only want to trigger a setting, you can use the standard system tile ...
Sure, the mobile data tile is a special case, because of the necessary 2-clicks, but you could always see the mobile data status within the status bar ....(or you could use 2 tiles --> on and off, if you want to be sure)
However, for an explicit mobile data toggle tile, the status feedback would surely make sense ....... but on the other hand in most QuickTile use cases a status feedback would be awkward
bottom line: If I could find a good solution which fits into the overall design and purpose of the app, implementing a status feedback feature is possible, but I haven´t found such a solution yet.

It has a lot of data elements available. Development progress was previously discussed in an other topic, but since that grew to 28 pages, I decided to make one with a clear title.
Disclaimer:
Building this is not my daytime job, and I'm not selling this for money, it's all free. The app is open source, and the source can be found on github. Feel free to contribute. Be patient when requesting new stuff. Don't hate me (or VW) when something isn't working on your car. The app will not void your warranty. Be safe when using it during driving.
Download:
Download the latest release here https://github.com/jilleb/mqb-pm/releases. Be sure to read the readme on https://github.com/jilleb/mqb-pm
Known issues:
Results vary from car to car: Not each car shares all data elements.
Results vary from firmware version to firmware version: Not each version allows data communication. Using Torque will enable additional data elements!
DO NOT UPDATE TO ANDROID AUTO V3! Custom Apps will NOT work, unless you use a 3rd party app enabler.
Looking at the screen too much when driving the car is dangerous.
Do not update the settings when connected to the car.
Be sure to check the github page for specific information in case you have other issues.

Looks promising !
Happy owner of a Skoda Kodiaq, I look forward to trying this.
How is that we need to compile the app by ourselves ? Any way to get it in an APK ? I tried Android studio but get stuck with the compilation of your application... Do I need the AA unofficial SDK ? If such SDK is needed, where to get it and to make android studio work with it ?
Sorry for the newbie questions. Any lead will be more than appreciated. Thanks for your time.

No worries, I will add the APK under "releases", but I first need to write an installation guide. This will save me from getting a lot of questions

Sure !
I am far from expert but should you need help ... I am willing to learn ! Even beta tester is fine ...

It looks good, i will test it since it be avaible

I have installed the app and the VAG telemetry extension and it shows up fine in AA but doesn't show any information from the car. I'm guessing I have missed something.. waiting for the installation instructions.

Did you grant all rights after installation? (open the settings app on your phone, say YES to all)
can you send me a logcat?

Yes, I did. I don't have a saved log currently as I deleted everything and did a clean install. Will report back when I try it again after work.

great, thanks. You can put it on a dropbox or so and PM me a link

Hi
I'm driving a 2017 Seat Leon FR.
Would love to help with testing if you need

Just came home after a 30min drive and still have the same issue even with a fresh install. Unfortunately it hasn't saved a log file either.
Something must have gone wrong when compiling the apk. I'll just have to wait for the release.

I managed to build and install your app and I can display the different dials.
Reloading the settings by turning on and off the light work great.
But no data is being shown on the graphs and no log file is being made on my phone's storage, although it did make the folder.
I have also tried to find information with logcat, but I'm not very proficient with that and it feels like I'm doing something wrong because I cannot find any log that resembles your app.
How do you debug your program while being connected to the car?
I'm reading your code, looks very interesting stuff. Thanks!

I really hope he doesn't dilute his efforts. Code is on github, fork it and work on GM and BMW versions. That is the point of github

It works only for VAG cars because they use the vendor extension channel to send/receive data to/from AA in EXLAP format. Other cars don't
Check out this comments from martoreto based on the info he received from different cars : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75089563&postcount=119

What are you doing on XDA Developers then?
For anyone trying to get this working. You need to create your own signing key SHA fingerprint, and crearte a google-services.json here using that fingerprint.. https://developers.google.com/mobile/add
I can't test my build APK, as my Audi doesn't support vendor extensions... ahh well..

@Chillout some feedback after most-recent github-commit:
app successfully compiled after removing ic_battery.png in app\src\main\res\drawable (got some "duplicate resource" error with ic_battery.png and ic_battery.xml).
Setup:
rooted S7edge together with VW-Touran
Finding1:
The app runs fine as long as only the 3 main-clocks are setup. All other views must remain deactivated.
As soon as i add something in View1, the app crashes.
Finding2:
Touching the AA-display may (! not always) lead to display-freeze followed by complete restart of AA.
That's it so far. Thumbs-up for your good work !!:good::good:
