Hey all,
I made an extension for Chrome users called "Comment Save":
I'll let the description speak for itself. I have personally found it useful for keeping track of my posts on XDA and other forums. Hope you guys find it useful and any suggestions will be useful!

Ever written a large post or comment on a website, click submit, only to see your comment get lost in the internet wilderness? Or your tab/window closed somehow before you could submit?
Or maybe you just like to keep track of all the posts you made on different websites.
Comment Save (CS) helps you keep track of what you have been writing as you type. Icon beside the address bar brings up a window showing you the last post you wrote alongwith a link to the page. Link in the window allows you to view your post history.
You can also filter websites where you don't want any of your posts to be tracked.
Works on sites like:
- Youtube
- Facebook
- Gawker blogs (Gawker/Gizmodo/Jezebel/Lifehacker/etc.)
- Engadget/Techcrunch/etc. (Sites which use Disqus)
- Wordpress/Tumblr
- Forums of all kinds
- Digg/Reddit
- CNN/New York Times/The Guardian/other news websites
- And lots more!
FEATURES:
------------------
* Records your post as you type so you can recover it if you lose it.
* Keeps a history of all your posts along with a link to the page and the time.
* Allows you to add filters so you can disable tracking on certain websites.
* Simple checkbox in the popup window enables/disable tracking globally.
Pretty cool idea, shame firefox is the love of my life haha, will try later though.

Bump. I might make it for FF someday
One last bump
And for Opera
As I did for the Nook Color community, I have created a list for people to post apps that are working and not. It's helpful to post both.
Please be nice, as I don't require any sign-on or anything....anybody and edit any post...this a community, so let's act like it .... sermon over.
http://sp.texultant.apps4rent.info/MoSo/gtab/Lists/App List/AllItems.aspx
There are other stuff out there...but the Software list will have the most value for people I think.
Cheers!
sudermatt
but I've updated The App List on the G-tab site here.
I've added a very handy GridView for those using IE.
It's pretty useful for searching and finding apps. Anybody can add and edit
I've updated the list again.... now you can add an image URL to show our community what the app might look like
G-Tab App List
Put it to good use!
SyncSMS lets you sync your text messages between your Android phone and tablet. SyncSMS lets you sync your text messages between your Android 2.1+ phone and 3G or WiFi-only Android 2.1+ tablet. This app lets you receive text messages on your tablet which have been received by or sent from your phone. Also, this app lets you compose text messages on your tablet which will be copied to your phone and sent out by your phone. You will need to sign up for a free Dropbox account, if you don't already have one, in order to temporarily store the messages between syncs.
Please rate and comment on the app in the Android Market and click Submit to Portal in the upper right of this post to vote this thread to XDA front page, thanks!

Doesn't work at all for me. I sign in to my existing Dropbox and get the error in the screenshot.

Could you please post the Logcat?

How do we know you are not capturing our DropBox credentials? This looks suspicious.
nevermind about the logcat, the issue is that I need a production API key from Dropbox. i agree on your suspicion, so i have posted the app's source code to instill confidence. please know that this app is not distributable or modifiable though. thanks!

Prove that your app is safe to install and immediately asks for Dropbox credentials and fails.
i have posted source code to my app which clearly shows that i use the dropbox api which requires username and password for the first login, then returns an access token per user which is the only thing that is saved to the local databases see LoginTask.java and Utils.java.
the 403 error stands for unauthenticated user. this is due to my app's dropbox api token being only validated for my email address. the app will work as described after i replace my api token with a production api token.
i do not deserve to be banned at all

Maybe not but you cannot release an app that does not demonstrate that you are not phishing username/password info which your initial release does not prove.
you know, honest mistakes do /actually/ happen in the world. plus, it's not my fault that Dropbox chooses not to allow OAuth for android apps. i never /wanted/ to have to have a user enter username/password in the context of my app for exactly this reason

Yes they do and when you have a secure way to access the app, please let us know. Until then, I am not touching it and recommend that no one else touches it either.
They do not allow OAuth access forwarding from their webpage per their guidelines. For Android (non mobile-web apps), they say to do so as follows.
From Dropbox dev page:
"Authentication For mobile devices
Mobile authentication is done using a call named token that's in the Mobile API specification section. Token takes a user's username and password and returns a working access token/secret pair to your application that you can use from then on. It's a relatively simple process, but with one caveat: you cannot store the user's password in your application. You can store a username for usability purposes or in case re-authentication is needed. However, there is no reason you should store their password."
Now, I have more than explained myself extremely detailed and clearly, so please go elsewhere with your false proclamations and ignorance.

You expect people to willingly enter their username and password for Dropbox in your app that returns an error of forbidden?
jeez lets just see how this app pans out. Its a good idea and I know that the op has put out other good ideas out before.
Ill keep an eye on this thread. Thanks
instead of crying about it couldnt you just make another dropbox account for this
don't use the same password you do for everything else
problem solved. case closed. stealing your passwords or not, be smart and just make another dropbox account.
btw, i get my xoom soon so ill def. be looking into this app. sounds interesting
It seems to me that posting the source is all he needs to do here, if someone wants to challenge him based on what it contains, that's a different story.
There are tons of legit apps that use Gmail and facebook credentials. Just hooking into 3rd parties doesn't automatically make one a crook.
If you are going to smear someone, at least make the effort to show some evidence, jeez.

You are right and I am sorry for being a prick. But be careful with apps like these especially if they fail on step 1, sign into an account that fails immediately (dropbox). After thinking about this further, I should not have posted what I did and I apologize. It is not my responsibility for others security.
OP, thanks very much for your effort with this, I NEED SMS on my Xoom!!
Possible suggestion.. Maybe making a widget to turn on the syncing? That way when I am using the Xoom, just flip the widget on for both phone and xoom, set phone aside.. This way the time frame for syncing can be quicker, and when I am done on my xoom, turn the widget off, and it wont sync anymore (for the sake of battery usage).
Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:
1.3.3.0
Added full Russian translation
Fixed many small errors from user logs
Fixed rare radio restart issue on some ICS buils
Anything to report?
Trying it out.. thnx!!
OK enjoy and please do give us some feedback!

Like topic title, streakdroid.com is having issues with it's DNS entries.
Anyone that hasnt recently connected to streakdroid wont be able to connect, if you have recently then it will work.
The server itself is fine, it's merely being able to reach it that's the issue.
One workaround is to add this to your hosts file for the time being:
Code:
174.122.149.190 mirror2.streakdroid.com
174.122.149.190 streakdroid.com
I will also be remirroring everything on dev host, but I will be doing it slowly.
Currently there are only a couple things mirrored, but I will slowly add them as requested.
The folder structure will be mostly identical.
DevHost Public URL.
Feel free to list a specific file you need and I'll upload it immediately/sooner.
I would prefer that files not be mirrored elsewhere, and ask that they be taken down and repointed to either my devhost account or streakdroid.com
But I will not ask anyone specifically or force them to remove it, it is merely a request.
