Database Develop

[App] sabHub

Hi Guys,
sabHub has just gone live in the marketplace! As the name suggests it is a client that will interface with your sabnzbd+ install
Functionality at the moment includes:
-View Queue
-View History
-Add NZB via Newzbin ID
-Delete Individual Download
-Pause Individual Download
-Clear History
-Remove individual history items.
-Landscape view supported and shows more detailed information
It has a trial and costs €1.29 for the paid version however the only difference is the presence of a small ad on the 'Add NZB' page. So no time limitation or reduced functionality. However only paid up customers will get the Live Tile functionality when it is introduced (which will be very soon!).
Cheers,
Bean

Thanks for sharing!

just a Q... why have the refresh and the settings icons in the top left/right instead of following the rest of the apps by having it in the bar at the bottom where they belong?

@Gate Keeper A couple of reasons for this.
Firstly- The Microsoft UX Guidelines published say don't put a application bar on a panorama control which is what my UI is based around
Secondly- adding the application bar to the panorama control will reduce the usable space of the list which in portrait mode is pretty limited as it is.
Thirdly-There is a lot of dead space at the top of the panorama control that I wanted to make the most out of!
If you look at the eBay app, that's where I got the inspiration for the settings/refresh buttons- which I think in a panorama context work quite well.

no worries, just thought i'd ask, wasn't have a dig at you or your app, sorry if it sounded like that. and yes i have noticed it on the ebay app, just not with the corner overlays that's all.

Just installed and works great! Good job!
One thing though, the Get API code thing didn't just get the code, it also got a load of the HTML so didn't work. I'm using SabNZBD 0.5.3, not the latest version, maybe that caused a problem?

no i didnt take it that way at all! I'm still finding my feet with wp7 development. any feedback on UX design etc is most welcomed and always good to start a discussion on these things!
@adamwebb28- Thanks for the feedback I'll look into the issue. Obviously a html scraping issue. I'm not on the latest version either so I'll have to see what the HTML layout changes are or come up with a more robust way to scrape the api key that will work across versions.

Hi There, I just purchased the Non-Ad version. Excellent stuff. any Idea when we'll be able to use other repositories like NzbMatrix . Any Idea how i'd get a newsbin ID? Cheers

@smoothbond thanks for supporting the app!
My eventual goal is to have a full newzbin/nzbmatrix search tool for WP7, whether this is in the form of a separate app or integrated into sabHub i'm not sure yet.

EaglesBlood™ rom bugreport or something

Since I'm new here (but reading xda for a while), I cannot post in the dev section, but I'm really like eaglesblood and want to help those guys.
Okay, here's the bug:
turning phone 90°, switching to landscape mode.
locking orientation
pressing power button, locking phone
pressing again, seeing lockscreen (attachment)
moving finger to the top (unlock icon)
it unlocks the phone, and launches the messaging app
It isn't a critical bug, but sometimes it annoys me.
and last: I'm not sure eaglesblood team would notice this post so anyone please repost it to their thread

I copied it into the thread at the dev section:

ok, this is my bugtracker thread now >:3
I found another two defects in EaglesBlood rom:
First:
Something strange is going on in Settings app — «Launcher» and «Pulse» menu items are shifted a few pixels to the right (look first attachment)

Second:
In Lockscreen, few pixels from the top of unlock... widget(?) seem to be cutted off (look second attachment)
And again, i'm asking for reposting this message to EaglesBlood thread.

This was actually a bigger issue than you decribed; we coined it "rotational bug" ...and it has been fixed thanks to my boy CSM. -And yes we follow, see below.

First: Hmm I see, odd. I'll look in source and see whats up. Thanks.
Second: Thanks I'll take a look, seems to be p990-specific since its not doing that on p999. You aren't using any screen resizing app or mod'ing the build.prop right? (if you were to reflash and NOT install anything nor use any TiBackup or similar, its like that stock?) Email Us response please.
Last: Yes we actively monitor the threads and are engaged as often as possible. Needless to say you'll have a better chance of getting these questions answered on the thread by either us or other users... (posting this one is random and a fluke that I came across it).

Galaxy Note 8 pop up ads

Beginning this morning I started receiving full screen pop up ads every 60 seconds. Its been continuous for the last 6 hours. They pop up regardless of any ap I may be using at the time. A few ad examples are attached. My Note 8 is Model SM-950U1, version 4.4.78

Factory reset

I was having similar issue some days back. Please go to settings>Apps and check if there is any application installed at the end of list with no name. Uninstall that one and see if that fixes your problem.

An app u recently installed.. Or visited.. It happened to me.. I l
Cleaned uo history in browser and went through apps

Solved
In my case it was a Call Recorder that I downloaded yesterday. I didn't like it so I uninstalled it about an hour later. However, it seems to have left one program behind, called Phone Services. I uninstalled it today and at the beginning of the uninstall, I got an error message that warned phone services was needed by call recorder. All was well after I uninstalled phone services. Thanks for all the inputs. I appreciate them.

Good you could find the culprit

I have helped people with this before and had a few of these on my note. First, diagnostics.
1. Hold down your power button to bring up your power menu.
2. Hold down on the Power Off icon and it will prompt you to restart your phone in safe mode. Do so and see if the problem goes away.
3-A. If it persists, then you may need to go to your samsung internet browser and clear out all website data.
3-B if the problem stops. Then its a 3rd party app and I would need more information to help you track it down. PM me with your results or questions.

Resolved

Hello Shadow Assassin, Please see my post #5 describing what I found. I sure do thank you for the steps you outlined above and will file them away. Good stuff.

Suspicious apps 0 byte size and more

Think I posted this in the wrong forum page earlier. I posted it in questions, I wasn't sure because there is more to it than just apps. So sorry for the dupe.
Hello, first thread on here. Didn't see anything that covered this, so sorry if its a duplicate. So 2 issues now and both of them are a little concerning. First Got a verizon samsung s20 fe just over a week ago. Before the system update #2 was installed or even poped up on my screen yelling at me I did the usual removal of bloat ware. While scrolling through the app list found about 15 apps give or take that were very unusual. some there were multiple of the same thing (name circular, 0byte file size on internal, no permissions requested and nothing under the all permissions tab, etc. I'll put a screen shot of the list of all of them) and I have yet to be able to find anything on this anywhere and now that I have sys. Update 2 installed I've noticed even more and other odd things in my app list. Such as when I disabled some useless apps I would never and have never used ever or anything close, it revealed (added them to the app list) other apps that were not there before. after system update 2 smart lock settings would open up a blank white page on chrome, now it has completely disappeared from all settings catagories. And literally while i am typing this and went to the app list to get screen shots, even more apps have appeared and some have even changed their permissions and restored some of their permissions, backround data,, backround battery use etc.
So essentially my phone has decided its going to do whatever the [email protected]$# it wants since the update after I've already gone once and went over permission and everything else for everything. To account for stupid $#!* that comes with a system update.
Any info on any of this and advice would greatly be appreciated.
P.s. the grey apps in the app drawer screen shot are the only things I've installed and I only added wish, pocket morties, insta, and snap over the past couple of days. And they haven't added anything besides their respective apps to the drawer. Most duplicate 0b apps were there prior, after system update 2even more appeared along with other strange thing starting to happen, or they revealed after bloatware and useless apps were removed or disabled.

Also. For a new phone that bloat ware/other useless things etc. Have been removed as much as possible without root, I still have 443 apps if I click show system apps.

Just a bump to show im still here waiting for some sort of reply. But really what happened to xda? You use to get answers for basically anything within 5 days max or atleast a comment or 2 asking for more info or w.e but now all you get is views?!?!?!?!

Dude, nobody owes you a reply! What do you want from people?! If people want to reply to you, they will! If they don't, tough luck! Maybe people don't feel like trying to sort through your wall of incomprehensible rants?
Yes, there are a ton of apps on your phone! That's how Samsung does things. Nothing you can do about it.

camera can't focus through store "scan price app"

I upgrade my note9 (which worked flawless with the app) to a s20 fe.
My problem is that i use a app everyday when i do my grocery shopping.
Go to the store, open the app, scan the price of your items, leave the store,,, no waiting in line to pay.
The problem is that the camera that comes with s20 cannot focus when scanning the barcode on the item through the app.
to make it work i have to open the camera app, go into macro set it to 2.0x, go back to the store app, and scan my item.
I have to do that with every item.
Any idears ?

have you tried turning on ''tracking auto focus'' in main camera settings ?

yes its always on.
But i have not tried to turn it off.

Recheck all settings and permissions.
Try holding it further back.
Clear system cache.
Clear cam, app caches and data if needed.
Try reloading the app.

If you can't resolve the issue try using a similar app.
Clearly it's not focusing.

if your camera works fine at this normally same as mine, it's the app itself that perhaps needs an update. I was able to photograph my fingers OK @ about 8 or 9 inches from the phone. the only other variable is the app.

I was thinking the same. The camera works fine by itself, its when i use the app, its out of focus.
i guess its the app that needs a update.

Have you disabled services, apks, anything on the phone? Dependencies...

no you shouldn't, he's asking if something the app might utilise could have been disabled.
go to the play store and click on the reviews and filter them for ''my device'' or ''this device / phone''.
if it's the app you shouldn't be the only one with this complaint. if you are the only one as blackhawk suggested it should be something on your particular phone.
I might download it myself if you give it's exact name, I had a quick look but nothing that matches your screen shot showed up.
