[BETA] Root Call Blocker - need DHD testers! - Desire HD Themes and Apps

Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app is currently in open beta here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
I dont have a Desire HD and need testers! Please let me know if you are interested in some hard-core testing and logging...

Hello mate, I am interested. Let me know what I need to do.

You will need to download the app and test it extensively by calling yourself and sending yourself SMS (may cost you money).
You can then use the "send debug data" menu item in settings to send us logs of any errors. We update the app on a daily basis, so fixes find their way into new builds quickly.

Updated, let me know if your issues are fixed please!

Genuinly interested (not attacking) - how is this different from the HTC people blocker?

Been using this for a few weeks on desire also, and have to say its fantastic. The best Blocker by miles, and nice to have one that hides notifications through the Hidden mode feature. Great App, and great future.
Regards

It's the best call blocker!
Silent and works as it need!
Thanx!

Its very good - when is the beta going to be over?

The beta lasts two more weeks or so... how is the new update?

Hi guys, any feedback on the latest version of the app? We are just about to release an update...

This is by far the best call filter - no bloat features, just what you need to get the job done. Works perfectly!

Thats what we are aiming for - something lean but powerful.

Outstanding issues have been fixed. Please update to 1.5.5 and let me know if your issues are solved. Its important we get some feedback guys!

Would like to test but is there any point in testing trial version? As I don't want to pay for something I'm testing for your benefit

What a nice sentiment... are you sure you belong on this particular forum?
In any case, the op was written back when the app was in beta. I still look in occasionally to see if people have device specific issues. Many of them already bought it.

I thought it still was. So my appologies

Not to worry...

Working perfectly for the last month or so. The one and only best!

Update should be ready tomorrow, hold on to your hats boys

Working perfectly here thanks!

Hi guys, much water under the bridge since we released the app, and its working better than ever! Weve added previews, format selection and share menu integration!
Please visit the thread in the OP to get the app!
I'll buy it for sure right now.... but is this even possible without root?
Sent from my HTC Evo
Universally like our app, no, its not possible without root.
Some manufacturers have used the same general backend for their own screenshot functionality, including samsung. But generally it all depends on the quality of the adb implementation.
We use our own method to read the video buffer, but its a brute force solution (which is why we need root).
Guys, im about to roll out a big update for SER with nice new features. Please be ready to test it at your leasure!

If you ever release a solution that doesn't require me to tamper with my device and possibly void the warranty let me know. I wish the market filtered root only apps out.
Right... ill be sure to remember this post you made.
In any case - you can unvoid your warranty by unrooting at any time. I would have thought you would know this, having registered in 2009.
Also, there are no non-root screenshot apps.
What's the difference between Screenshot ER and Screenshot ER 2?

For some reason Google suspended SER, so I've made a new package name and launched it again. There is no difference, apart from some bugfixes since the last version.

ATM its all up to Google. I will send anyone who has their original order number SER 2.
As you may or may not know, theres almost no direct support for the android market, so i cant say with certainty that they will eveentually restore the original SER.
It was probably one of our competitors flagging our apps. Bastards.
Hmm.. that's not very nice :/
Where should we sent the original order number to get our copy of SER 2?
Our market email please.

[WIDGET] Prepay Widget - needs testers!

Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a simple but powerful app that allows you to monitor your cell 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.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.ussd.widget.lite
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:
Have things been fixed in 1.1.5?
1.1.7
- Balance sheet shortcuts reworked
1.1.6
- Fixed dual SIM issues again
try it at once,thanks guy.
Wow, somebody interested in prepay widget! How incredible (no pun inteneded)...
Latest builds are very stable for me!
Glad to know. Dont be afraid to write with issues or suggestions, they are always welcome!
Any issues?
I'd like to test your app. Does it have any carrier restrictions? My mobile network operator is TIM, I live in Italy. Thank you for letting me know.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
The only restriction is that your operator must use ussd codes.
Anything to report about yesterday's update? Is it working OK?
Prepay Widget
Dear Developer, could you add to your app an option to show last change bill? That is the difference before and after the last change. It would be great. Sorry for my bad English.
There is already a statistics panel...

Tablet UI for AOSP/CM10.1 discussion

XDA member AuxLV is working on an app called Tabletizer. It's an apk that does the conversion by creating a flashable zip file on your device which you then flash in the recovery.
[APP] Tabletizer Alpha 4 (2013.03.02)
I've tried this one and it works well.
There are some other roms/patches that do have a Tablet UI option:
[PATCH] True Tablet UI (Apps+GUI) w/o DPI Change for Stock & CM10 - Update Oct11
[ROM][WIFI][CM10.1][Feb27] BeatMod CrystalClear v2.1 | Aroma | TabletUI | Sound Mods
PARANOIDANDROID 3.0 (4.2.2) | Only Rom on Android capable of Hybrid mode
Please add links to other solutions and projects or status updates, and keep general talk about TabletUI in this thread unless new a new one is created.
I updated my G+ with current status.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
I am very interested in this as my posts in the CM 10.1 "official" thread should have made clear, but being as I'm not a developer I can't do much but sit around and hope someone with more talent than I have is capable of making it a reality. I understand that Google has decided to "move on" and just flat out give up on the tablet UI - which is odd considering it's a tablet device we're using with the Nexus 7 and not a damned phone, even so - but that's their prerogative I suppose.
For the moment I'll use Paranoid Android 3.0 when aaron is able to get a 4.2.2 build out, he's currently working on it as noted in his thread last night but it's not available just yet. I was using PA 3.0 with 4.2.1 and found it very useful for many reasons, the tablet UI functionality being the primary one.
The Nexus 7 I have is actually damaged (hence it being a $25 craigslist special) with a crack in the upper right hand corner where the previous owner had dropped it - there's a triangular area in the upper right hand side that doesn't respond to touch anymore, kinda funky how it lines up but, with PA and that tablet UI functionality it's not a real issue because I can hold the menu soft key and it'll bring up the settings for any given app anyway.
If I have to choose a specific ROM I tend to go back to "pure" CM whenever possible so, if someone can actually get the tablet UI functional in 10.1 (based on 4.2.2 at this point) I'm all for it. If not, then PA will fill the ROM role for me.
I remember seeing them introduce Honeycomb and was blown away with the interface layout and the functionality, and now they've basically just swept all that out like yesterday's garbage and I really wish I knew why. It's like seeing demos of versions of Windows that never end up being actually made into workable products - there are videos on YouTube of test versions of Windows Longhorn which was scrapped and then reborn as Vista and some of the stuff they do in those Longhorn videos is beyond cool, seriously.
Android showed some "beyond cool" capability with Honeycomb and a proper tablet UI, now it's like that stuff was a mistake or something and I completely disagree on that respect. But then again, I do understand Google's attempts at unifying the Android interface across all devices instead of having something for phones and then something for tablets, what now with ChromeOS trying to gain traction as well.
Suffice to say if someone can make it possible with CM then fantastic, if not then I'll make do with whatever I suppose. Would be nice, however...
I just want to make sure my app is of top quality, I failed two updates for LagFix when I wanted to make them quick, that will never happen again.

Your efforts, even if it proves not really possible (because of something Google has changed, etc), are greatly appreciated.

My hero!!!!
Well done on alot of good work.
I will have to be honest that I like the quick settings menu in combo with the notifications drop down. And I like the way the navigation bar is by default.
But the thing I like about the Honeycomb style ui is the settings menu. I guess compared to stock Jellybean, that might be the only thing I like alot (Just to be clear, I did not dislike other aspects). The Honeycomb notifications tray just seemed to add additional screen pressed for functions now contained within the quick settings menu.
But, still. Good job changing the ui. Its not an easy thing to do. I tried to do some changes for personal use, and seemingly small changes completely crash the system to an unusable state.

Hey aux, where will you be posting this app? Id love to test it
First alpha as promised!
Before using: BACK UP!!!
Using:
Launch app
Click "Run tabletizer"
Wait for a few minutes
It will create update.zip file in /sdcard/data/tabletizer/temp
Flash this update.zip from CWM/TWRP recovery
Reboot
App is quite unstable at the moment, because recompilation process eats a lot of RAM and it crashes often when runs out of memory. I'm rewritting smali tool to be more friendly, but it will take some time to finish.
Thank you for your app! I ran the apk, it started the process and got to these last 3 lines:
Services are patched!
Can not recompile.
Compilation exception.
Now it hasn't done anything for 10 minutes. I'll wait a bit longer and try again.

Time Stamp for Call History?

Just switched from iOS to Android (used to be an active member of the forums for WinMo), so forgive me as I know this has been asked before, but I didn't find any results in HTC ONE forum. I am having issues with the call history. It doesn't show a time only the date. There has to be a way to fix this on the stock dialer but I can't seem to find it anywhere in the settings. Any advice would be ideal. I prefer not to download a third party app for this fix but if this is the only way that would be fine, I guess. Thank you in advance.

Good question. 4.3 Sense 5
Date and time for text messaging only date for call history. It's annoying and I'm already over the 14 day mark otherwise I would return the device for that simple reason.

Yes, I'm have the same issue. I just got mine a week ago and installed the upgrade to 4.3 soon afterwards. The software on HTC One is not as intuitive as other phones I have had. The time of call is a basic and important part of call information, so it's beyond comprehension how anyone could leave this off.
I will contact HTC, and hopefully they will include a fix in their next update. How ridiculous to forget something like this. They seemed to have focused on doing a great job on the hardware and completely ignored UX on this phone.

Shortly after posting my question I followed the instructions in that same post and it worked fine for me. I had to put the value in 40 because in 50 it sounds very distorted. Played around with the vaules until I found that 40 is the best one for me.

Hey all! I just wanted to report my discoveries today. I have had a T-Mobile flat S6 for a little over a month now. My father has a S4 that I gave him awhile back, but wanted to get something new. I decided to give him my S6, and get an AT&T S6 Edge for myself. I'm' pretty used to being able to fully modify every aspect of my phones, because I normally only buy phones with unlocked bootloaders. I've done quite a bit of research, and experimentation, and found that even though we are pretty limited in our choices, we can indeed get something like the Alliance Framework to work, which adds a lot of functionality. What I did was install the XtreStoLite ROM from the main S6 Edge section using FlashFire. When it flashes, it will take you to an aroma installer. Could just be my phone, but the phone went totally crazy. Started flashing like crazy, but you could make out the aroma options. I was able to check the options I wanted, and flash. The install worked! After going through and setting things up, I then flashed the secondary package that you can install with the XtreStoLite ROM. Same thing happened where the phone would flash like an old tv that couldn't find signal. I was able to check all the modifications, including the built in Alliance Framework. It flashed fine, but got stuck trying to reboot. I manually rebooted, and after a few minutes, the phone came back on like normal. I checked everything, and the Alliance modifications are fully functioning. I just thought I'd share with you all, in case anyone is mod happy like I am. The link to the ROM is below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xtrestolite-deodexed-mod-edition-1-3-t3119968
Thanks for this find! Now I wonder if any other aroma roms work,lol
