[APP] Widgetsoid2.x ... 3rd party Power Control Widget, and more... way more!

Just thought I'd pass this along. Before the NS, I used the hell out of "Extended Controls" ... Sadly, most of the toggles I would have liked to use do not work with the NS (2.3 compatibility issue?). Emailed the dev and got responses right away saying it will be updated next week. Next week came and gone ... came and gone again. Dev is probably behind with RL stuff so sooner or later it will be updated. In the mean time, I found an awesome alternative with more features ... and its free.
Widgetsoid2.X
Highly customizable power control widget ... and can even be configured to add a power control widget from your notification bar drop down.

Yeah I really like widgetsoid. Since cm team still hasn't got the flashlight working I use its flashlight widget inside the notification bar. Works great.

great app, been using it for a while now. but how do you put the widgets in the notification bar? can't seem to find it
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App

ohh that's a nice find

Odd. Both my wife and I use extended controls fine. I find if you restore it via Titanium, it doesn't work but if you do a fresh install of it, everything functions great. Good find though.

The widget isn't really not put in the notification bar. It puts the image of your widget there but when you click on a power control it brings up the power control in an overlay of your screen where you then select which power control you want to turn on/off. For me (not short on screen space) its no quicker than using regular widget on the screen.

thanks! I've been using extended controls even though it wasn't fully operational w/gingerbread. Just dl'ed widgetzoid and bluetooth works! Liking the vertical option too..

I was really impressed by Widgetsoid and its developer 2 weeks ago. I found a bug, emailed the dev, and got a response in like an hour. Within like 2 hours of emailing him, he tracked down the bug and incorporated a fix into the next release. Now that's service.

we reported it a while ago
http://www.mobiflip.de/2011/01/andr...-benachrichtigungsleiste-einfach-nachruesten/
(p.s. google translate is your friend )

The thing I really like is how easy it is to edit existing widgets. Saves a lot of time if you just want to add or remove something from a power control type bar

the app is good, no doubt, but it's a major pain in the back to configure
some options are no longer available after you hit apply
so if you ever want to change them again, you can't (for example the invisible option, there are a few more that are no longer accessible after it was saved)
and the only alternative is to delete it, and create a new one

Guess that's why I'm sticking with extended controls. Profiles are so easy to edit.

but once you master this App, it's a big treasure chest!
once everything was properly setup and configure, it easily replaced 7+ apps
TeslaLED
tons of On/Off Widgets
Ace Volume
Battery info
crap load of other ones i uninstalled
i setup 4 rows, maybe gonna add 1 more for 5 rows for Apps
that's the nice thing about this app, you can create custom shortcuts to make it launch your most used apps, from the Notification area
i simply love it

Top app, I paid the donation version because this kind of good developer need to be supported.
The dev answered my question and implemented my suggestion!
PS: No problem with applying profile. And if you do have, just email the dev, he will answer and fix.

are you guys able to enable/disable Data with Widgetsoid 2.x on Nexus S using Gingerbread 2.3.. (unrooted?).
Most items work, but this one does not toggle Mobile Data on/off on my phone. I dunno if this is a security limitation right now with this OS.

Yeah I noticed this too. Was a shame, cause this is the main reason I was after this. I guess this functionality of directly enabling/disabling from the task bar cannot be enabled in stock roms without direct framework changes.

Hi,
Widgetsoid need root only for the reboot toggle
For the data on Nexus S just restaur your apn, check your data is enable and go to global preferences of widgetsoid and check "disable all apn".
Now it have to work.

Android don't allow event on notifications it's an android limitation not an widgetsoid error/limitation.
On HTC rom it's works directly because HTC have modify android source code to allow this. HTC users are lucky. Next version have an option to disable popup after click on notification.

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:
j4velin said:
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'

Click to collapse

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?

[APP] StormGlass -[R]- {10/27/2011} -[U]- {10/27/2011} -[V]- 1.0.1

Name: StormGlass
Language: English (at the moment - I need translators!)

App will use:
Location services - When asked to use Geolocation
Data services - To fetch weather data
StormGlass is a customizable weather live tile application for WP7. You can use the "Tiles" page to populate upto 5 live weather tiles, each with it's own settings. All live tiles will update once every 30 minutes. You can also customize what information you want to see on a tile by selecting a layout to use. Available weather skins can also be changed for a unique look. Enabling the "Quick refresh" mode for a live tile causes it to refresh weather information by just clicking on it without having to launch StormGlass.
If you've been looking for a free, good looking and dependable weather live tile application - you need look no further than StormGlass!
StormGlass is and will always be free with no ads or annoyances.
I am currently looking for people to help me with
Translations (into any language you can read/write fluently) - Email me and I will share documents via Google docs that you can edit.
Weather skins - Please submit any weather skins you would like to see in the app. (details at the end of the post)
Tile layout suggestions - I am welcome to ideas for more tile layouts - subject to the limitations of what weather information Google Weather provides.
Oh, and if you know of a free weather service that can provide dependable, hourly weather data - I am most interested in knowing.
Anyone who contributes in any way will be given due credit inside the application. Weather skin / layout authors please provide a name and/or email id (and optionally a title and message body). The shown name will be a clickable link that will allow the end user to compose an email message to you.

thanks. looking great.
i seem to be unable to keep celcius though. it can be set, but when i check the location its back to fahrenheit.
the tile is also having problems with german umlauts like Ö/ö

seems good, downloading
I will let you know my opinion...
thanks

Nice app - but as mentioned above it simply won't display in Celcius.
Otherwise, it's really exactly what I'm looking for, doesn't flood the user with bells and whistles and crap, just live tiles with their own settings, good stuff! :>

Celcius/Fahrenheit problem fixed
Thanks to comeone123 and shinygerbil for reporting the Fahrenheit/Celcius bug. A fix has been made and will show up as an update soon - with a few other goodies!

Yes, that's quite possibly it. One way to confirm it for sure is to check if the weather condition text has a "*" after it. If it does, it means the app couldn't translate it - it just displayed it as provided. A fix is in and will be in a future update.

If you're referring to the HTC hub, it is
a. A battery drainer
b. It cannot be customized or modified in any way
c. It cannot be refreshed with a quick click, a click launches the hub application
d. No forecast on the tile itself.
f. Not two-sided
Any maybe more ...

There are a lot of requests for status bar hiding widgets or apps. So you just start the application when you need to hide status bar (for example before browsing or gaming). You don't lock your device in the middle of gaming.
In my opinion it is still better than all other bar hiding apps (and I'm talking about free version of my app). You have to click something in all of them (and here you click - start app). Just in my app you have the opportunity to control your tablet while bar is hidden.
But if you think this version is useless, I value your opinion.

I'm developing on 7.7 myself, so it is tested well on it.
You don't get any error messages, notifications on gestures nothing? Does the last button in settings screen (Status bar toggle) works (hides/unhides) status bar?

I'm now using this and works brilliant. Finding the swipe gestures to suit me. Hiding and unhiding status bar no lag. Keep up the good work. Bought full version.

I will add setting to turn off toast message on unlock (when tutorial mode is switched off). However free version will stay for occational use. Application contains a lot of native code that will need support with new versions/devices. And the application is niche anyway. I really tried using this version myself and I find it usefull, but you can propose different model, I'm open for ideas.

Well, there are other apps for this (HideBar - free, Honeybar - 1$), my intention is to evolve the gesture part. Allow to create your own gestures and define your own actions.

Any chance of making the gestures more like the ipad? E.g. 5 finger pinch to home? Its a more natural closing type gesture imo

Changed gestures to multitouch (see first post).
Also fixed a bug that I think prevented actions from working on some devices.

Excellent, thanks!
I just bought it and it recognises my gestures fine but it stopped doing anything after the first gesture?
It still pops up with home etc but doesnt do the action.
If i open the gesture app and disable and reenable the service again it works for one action and stops again

[Android 4.1+] Data Sharing - Tethering

Hi, my name is Jorge Ruesga, and I frecuently contribute with open source code like CMFileManager, PhotoPhase and other libraries, as well as contribute to the CyanogenMod project. This time, with the help of my colleague Roberto Grande, we developed an app to control and monitorize the data consumption of the tethering interfaces in Android, so you never will be have a surprise when using your device to share your Mobile data with other devices. The app is a free (and ads free) downloadable app in the Google Play Store with In-App purchase to unlock some cool features.
ABOUT
Data Sharing is a WiFi hotspot and tethering management and control app. No more surprises while sharing your mobile data and exhausting it without realizing about it. Share knowing your mobile data consumption and avoid spent more than you want by define your desired limits.
FEATURES
The app have a set of cool features for free.
* Start/stop the shared data service for WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth tethering interfaces.
* Manage the time and data usage for WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth and USB tethering interfaces.
* Set the data usage and time limits by session, day and monthly cycle.
* Show connected devices or those have been connected ever, and allow to modified its displayed name and hide them from the list.

The app is downloadable from the Play Store at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awake.datasharing.
To celebrate that Data Sharing was published in the Play Store, we gave away 50 promotional codes that you can grab from here (but you should be fast as hell to get yours ).
HELP
This app doesn't required root access, but it takes advantage of rooted devices to directly control the usb interface, not allowed without elevated privileges. In any other case it fallbacks to display you the system tethering settings activity.
We started this thread to provide you a way to report bugs, request features, obtain help and discuss about the app, so we are willing to hear your thoughts about the app.

Seems that the our initial 50 promo codes are now exhausted. Here are few more free promo codes

As I said via PM the codes seem invalid
But well I tried the free version which is btw very nice as it is and it works like a charm.
Would it be possible by long pressing the on/off button to shut down tethering for all type of connections ? Right now you have to shut them down individually (tbh, i only connect via wifi, but who knows).
Also i saw a Dark Mode so i was very pleased, ... just to see that the dark mode is only for the widget . Do you plan to add also a dark mode for the app itself ?
Thanks again

@Namoi, all seems fine with that codes. I just finish to redeem F616HCZ0PUUVWBMUA6J79JW code into the app, and all the pro funtionality was activated succesfully. Not sure what was wrong with your attempts of redeem the promo codes
Your proposal are a really good ones (long press and black theme). We'll really considere it for the next release. Thx so much for your comment.

Well, it must be perhaps my old "dark" modded playstore app ...
Another idea I had after a some tests (and because my tethering device went to sleep) , but not sure if this one would be easy or at least without root : when the providing device is set to disconnect wifi when screen is off (and when going to sleep) the tethering is broken. So would it be possible to break the rule when tethering is enable (I don't know if the two are bound : wifi and wifi tethering), but it would be great to save battery on the providing device.
Thanks again
PS: LOL it was : i went to my Galaxy Tab and go direct to redeem and entred the code : it says my device was incompatible, well OK , but it updated my GS2 to PRO.
Thanks

A really interesting idea. I need to check the aosp code to see if it could be done for a non-system app (or even via root access).

It would really be great I think as it is kind of problematic mostly on old device with weak battery. I am sure it would be possible using tasker but well not really straightforward (I also remember a guy here who designed an app to control wifi behavior - root was mandatory (if i remember well) -, will try to dig my subscription) ... and if a black theme is conceivable ? please, ... pretty please
Thanks again

R8B529Z98EBA06SP9L4DN1K
the dark theme does not work ! :crying:

It is for widget only, but I didn't try it so maybe it doesn't work. If you mean the app...well I cried for it already

We are trying to implement all this suggestions, as well to fix some bug fixes for the next release, but we need some time (a week or two) before we can release the next version.

Vesion 1.2.1 is rolling out in this moment (so it will be available in a few hours), with new funtionalities and a various bug and stability fixes. This is the full changelog:
- NEW: Add tap stats wheel view to go to activity stats
- NEW: Added button to stop all active interfaces at once
- NEW: Added an option to bypass current Wi-Fi sleep policy
- NEW: Added an option to determine the stop behaviour for day and cycle periods
- NEW: Advise users when its devices require Wi-Fi AP provisioning
- NEW: Dark theme for app
- NEW: Allow widget to be resized horizontally
- Other bug fixes and improvements
Enjoy it and share with us your thoughts, feature request and bugs.

@Namoi @pendor24 this is how it looks the dark theme. Hope it's enough dark for you guys. We want to respect a bit of the material design and colors of our original design

hellos
super thank you for this great job :bien:

Thanks,
Didn't had time to test the new features but it seem perfect
It is just the "dark theme" which IMHO should be, well, a little more dark : dark background (charcoal) and light text. I don't think it would clash with Material Guidelines, mostly with incoming N and the return of the black theme, but it is you to decide of course.
Will report ASAP about the wifi overriding policies.
Thanks again
