[APP] RADAR BEEP, warning radars [FREE] - App Stores

Good afternoon. I would like to present the official Radar Beep app.
It was launched today on Google Play.
The way the app works is simple:
- Install the app via Google Play, select the country, and that's it. It warns you of the nearest radars, and you don't need to worry about updating the radars, as it updates automatically to always have the latest database.
- It also warns us when we are going past the radar so we can keep to the desired speed.
The main screen has two buttons:
- Spanner: Preferences
- Green ON button and red OFF button: this changes when we touch it, turning detection on or off.
It can integrate with all GPS navigation apps, as the detection dialog pops up over the navigator. You can hide it with a single touch.
It has a directional map system - in other words, it always shows you the map in the direction you're going, as well as flagging all the radar guns.
We have a Widget for turning detection on without having to open the app, and it can also turn on automatically when you turn on your Bluetooth hands-free system, turning off when you turn off the car.
And finally, we have a Radar Beep NFC sticker which can turn the app on when the phone gets near it.
The app is free and ad-supported. You can pay to get rid of the ads, but if not, the app is fully functional with a little advertising so we can maintain the service.
The app is available in:
Spanish, English, German, French, Chinese, Korean, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Hindi, Italian, Romanian, Polish and Arabic.
There are some screenshots below so you can check it out.
Best regards,
Juan

Black screen during call

Hi,
I'm wondering to know if you know application to avoid black screen during calls for the HTC Hero.
RucaNebas
Yes. On the app store there is a free app called Shake Awake. It detects the movement of pulling the phone away from your ear and activates the screen. The sensitivy can be adjusted.
Thank you very much for your quick replay Paul.
I installed and it seems to work.
Thank you again.
Do you know where I can find cool applications for our Hero?
RucaNebas
Wow, this works very nice.
Thank you

You're very welcome.
I have so far only installed apps from the Android Market.
Excellent find.
Not working on HTC Hero :-((
Do you know why?
Yeah, didn't work on the Hero. I hope they fix that with the update and also that annoying vibrate when the phone connects. While interesting concept it is really not needed. I figure I know when it connects when the other person says hello.
You can use Keepscreen, there is a lite version ;-)
Hi,
you may use the free app calle KeepScreen Lite, too.
This app lets you choose for which apps you want the screen always stay on.
The Hero uses a specific phone app, whose name is different from google standard phone app ... But KeepScreen lets you manually choose the apps you want.
There are two versions of keepscreen : the free one (called lite), which is 'limited' to standard google apps, and two of user's chose. The pay version is unlimited.
edit : bricabrac : you won this one
Thank you guys.
I'm sorry to back again, but I need to understand your explanations.
Do you mean that the KeepScreen Lite application could be installed on the Hero and activates the screen during calls?
Which is the Hero app name that keeps the screen always stay on during calls?
I had already created a thread with regard to the screen switching off during a call here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=547736
Shakeawake doesn't seem to work for all and for those it does it can be unreliable.
PowerManager can be set (in a profile) to keep the screen alive when making a call for up to a minute (specify by number of secs... I think) which gives you plenty of time to get past those 'pick 1 to do ... pick 2.... etc' type calls.
Hope this helps
how do i install this " shake awake" program on my foon! new 2 andriod

KeepScreen
if i'm not mistaken the actual phone app should be named "Dialer"
KeepScreen is now completely free, and has in the free version all functionality
ahm, can anyone tell me how do i turn the screen off again after i awoke it? my ear keeps checking notifications :/
fyi...on my hacked sapphire, keepscreen was a little buggy. it would sometimes still allow dialer app to go dark while on call even with the keepscreen app running as confirmed in both notification bar and running apps. also, when rebooting phone, keepscreen requires restart but that is probably normal. for me, i decided i rather not deal with the problem of occasional face/key-press on long calls and just let the device go dark. i've become familiar with the quick-key presses to handle call-swap, speaker-on, and such...
I have shake awake since a while and it works fine.
Keepscreen is nice to keep applications "awake"

[Q] Remote GPS Activation / SMS GPS Enabler

Hi everyone,
Okay this might be a dumb question but I'm going to ask. Is there a way to remotely enable/activate the GPS and WiFi on my Android phone through a text message? I currently have GPS Tracker, Lost My Droid, Real Time GPS Tracker, Seek Droid, SMS GPS Enabler, and Where's My Droid installed on my phone to try and remotely turn on my GPS and WiFi. The problem is that yes sending the text to my phone and have the sound go off for Where's My Droid and Lost My Droid works, but the problem is having my GPS and WiFi turned off on my phone and not hearing because its not there. Yes, their are plenty of good apps that let you track your phone if your GPS is on, but they do not allow you to turn on GPS and WiFi through (SMS) text. So all and all, is there an app or apps that can do this for me, so I can do what I want to do?
Any information would be helpful, instructions would be better lol.
Thanks, II

I am the Dev of seek droid. Why leave the GPS disabled? It really does not conserve that much battery. Enabling the GPS does not leave the GPS turned on or even give the GPS any power unless the application you are using requests GPS.
Go pick up tasker from the market, and you can create a profile to have it enable gps whenever you get an sms.
You should probably have taker already anyways. It's a beast.

For some reason on my phone if I leave the GPS enabled it will drain out my battery in a few hours (8hrs). Where as if I turn GPS off, my battery has lasted up to almost 16hrs which is double and it is the only setting that I have changed.

Thanks for the advice pizz0wn3d. I will look into Tasker and see if it works for me and what I need it to do.
f you don't see the satellite dish in the notification bar then it really shouldn't use any battery, even if GPS is enabled. If you have location stuff turned on so the GPS is being used (i.e. you see the satellite dish in the notification bar) it will use battery.

Let me know and I can send you the profile I use. It makes the phone talk (alerting them that gps is being remotely enabled to track the phone down) and sends a confirmation text to the number that activates the gps. Then you can use "wheres my droid" or whatever else to track that S.O.B. down.

If you can, also send me the direction on how to set it up to do it. I might whined up missing something up with 190 options. But can always re-ROM if need be.

Bob, I do know this. For some reason my Map app starts up on its own and launches Latitude causing my GPS to activate and stay on. I don't want to uninstall Maps or Latitude because I do use them. Its easier to just turn off GPS then hassle with trying to find the source of the problem, in truth.

Well the way my profile is set up, whenever I receive a text with a certain phrase in it, it'll turn on the gps. Along with a few other things
It's not one of the advertised features because it's just one of the many things you can do with it.
I'll try to post a dropbox link in a few minutes.
Edit: This oughta work. Import this into tasker.
http://db.tt/D7u8eKw
It should be able to import after you paste the xml file into:
/sdcard/tasker/profiles
Then just hit menu -> profile data -> import one profile

If you use Latitude, it will be on all the time and cause battery drain because it needs update your location 24/7 even if Gmaps is not used. You don't have to uninstall it. Just make sure you log out of Latitude if you don't use it.

Alerting them sounds like a bad idea. I envision a battery pull or a phone being tossed out the window of a moving vehicle.

Haha maybe. I wasn't thinking of it that way. It creates a notification telling them to call the number that I texted them from to return the phone to the owner.
Plus I thought it would be funny to scare whoever has the phone. Now im starting to think of it as a bad idea thanks to your post..

You don't reply to private messages do you pizz0wn3d? Questions are, Is there a site to download prebuilt profiles for Tasker? Second, What are the features to have your phone go to lock screen and ring remotely. Mine aren't working that I built.

Oh sorry, normally I do but I haven't been on xda outside of the app in a few days so I haven't been able to look at my messages.
There is a wiki on the app that has a bunch of different profiles you can try out, as well as a couple of tutorials to get the hang of making profiles.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean about going to the lock screen, as idk if it's possible to do that though tasker. I'll mess around and see what I can find.
What exactly are you trying to do that requires you to go to the lockscreen and play a ringtone?

Well for the lock screen; I was trying a remote lock down after I enabled the GPS tracking, so they could not turn it off, other then removing the battery of course. The only thing I can do right now is, set screen time out to 7sec. which is the smallest amount Tasker allows. The lock in Tasker is a joke because if you click on the notification bar at the top and select something you can bypass the lock, even in full screen mode.
As for the Ringtone/Ringer; I was trying to setup the phone to ring when people text me, similar to that of Where's My Droid, but with a twist. When I get their text, the assigned ringtone under their contacts or from file would play, that way I would know who it was without having to look at my phone every time. For this one in particular; do you or someone else know how Where's My Droids setup works? Then I can try to base it off of that. From what I can tell, it tricks the SMS into using the the ringer system and not the notification system. So a bait and switch from SMS Receiver to Cell Receiver. That's all I know for now.
Thanks for the link! I'll go through it to learn some more about Tasker.

I've never tried to set up a remote lock through tasker, I just had it set up to enable the GPS so I could lock+retrieve it via wheres my droid/lookout. But i have heard that the tasker lock down was pretty weak >.<
I actually never realized the phone didn't support custom tones for contacts outside of the calling ringtones. That actually sounds pretty difficult to implement via tasker. You would first have to disable notifications from your sms app so the tasker profile wouldn't just play a sound over that one. You'd also likely have to create a separate profile for each contact that you want to have a custom sms tone for.

[Q] Google Now hotword detection stops working

Google Now used to respond properly to the "OK Google" hotword. But now it frequently loses that mode (even though the hotword setting is still checked off); the search bar just says "search", and the spoken hotword has no effect.
I can get the hotword detection back by rebooting the phone, but that's the only reliable method I've found. It disappears again within a day.
There's no obvious app causing the problem. The problem occurs even if no other apps are running. I don't use any other apps that detect hotwords. Phone is stock/unrooted.
Any suggestions?
I read in another forum that your language needs to be English (US) for 'Ok Google' to work. Its under Language Settings > Voice Search > Language
you should also ensure that hot word detection is checked.

Thanks, but the language setting has been US English all along, and hotword detection has been checked all along. If those things hadn't been the case, hotword detection wouldn't have worked even after rebooting the phone.
Happily, though, it's now been several days since I've seen the problem occur. I have no idea what may have changed.
Disable all third party app that's in accessibility. Lightflow, smart launcher notification, etc etc.
You might have to update the offline language pack. Go into the voice settings - offline speech recognition and under installed it should show English (US) and uninstall underneath if it's up to date. If it needs updating just click on it. If that doesn't work, uninstall the language pack and install it again.

Dictionary update information WTF?

So I have no access to WiFi unless it comes from this damn phone.
I don't know what this notification is all about but it's irritating the living hell out of me and it won't go away.
I have no WiFi network available to connect to and besides I have unlimited data and I don't want ANYTHING requiring WiFi
How the hell do I fix this before I lose my freakin mind?
Long press on the notification and select app info to see which app is requesting a dictionary update.
Some apps like the Google Play Store and Amazon App Store have settings that will not update apps above a certain size unless you are on WiFi. Disable that setting or set it to a higher limit.
If you find out what app is causing it, look in that apps settings for a similar wifi limit.

Try going into settings, language and input, click on the 3 bars to right of goggle keyboard. Select text correction. Then select add on dictionaries. I had to click on each language till i found ones i don't use and deleted. Also found one with blue bar trying to update. I was able to click on it then selected cancel. . I clicked on it second time and selected delete. So far has worked for me been about 14 hours since did that.
I also had this happen today. When I got home it downloaded and too about 2 seconds.

This did not work for me although it did lead me to the discovery of several dictionaries I have no intention of using that showed 'installed'. I was able to "delete" those dictionaries but they still show on the list as "available." Right now the only dictionary showing 'installed' is "English" but I see no indication that it's attempting to update, i.e. there is no progress bar or visual difference between it and the others on the list.
Disabling notifications for Download Manager obviously does get rid of the notification area icon but is an imperfect solution as, usually, I do want notifications from Download Manager. Anyone come up with something else that's working?
doesn't work

Unfortunately, it is a coincidence that it works for Google keyboard. The problem still exists for my phone and I don't use the Google keyboard only the Samsung one.
Go to Language and Input then Voice Search.
Click Offline Speech Recognition, then Auto-Update.
Change it to Auto-update languages at any time, instead of Wi-Fi
Then go to Text-to-speech output,
Click the Settings icon (looks like volume sliders)

In the camera settings under shooting methods is voice control on or off.
Voice control is off. When I turn it on the message don't appear. But I don't need voice control
I have the same problem. Every time I open the camera this notification appears to turn on voice control. It's frustrating
Have the same issue. Just updated my S10+ to Android 10 this morning. Met my friend and she also updated today and has the same issue on her phone.
Talked with Samsung support and they have no idea. After a bit of back and forth I convinced them to escalate.
This should be the Ref # for this specific escalation: 2222899743
Please contact their support to submit examples.
As for now I'm just going to use Tasker to dismiss that notice every time I open Camera.
Samsung said to me I have to hard reset my phone this is no option
Also have this issue, S10e. Don't use voice control for anything so it's all switched off. Only appeared with the Android 10 update as well.
Same problem here. Galaxy S10. Happend after upgrading from OneUI 1 to 2.
Same problem here as well, S10e. Just got the phone so don't know if it is caused by the upgrade or not. Fact is that I managed to disable most of the Bixby and other samsung apps - but this pop keeps coming up. I have tried Gcam, but that one crashes quite often.

Hello All,
I discovered the prompt to turn on TalkBack stopped after I disabled an app I was using called Holey Light. Holey Light needed extra permissions so it could give me a notification light around the front camera. Don't know why, but after turning it off via the Accessibility > Installed Services setting, the prompt stopped happening.

Interesting, I also have Holey Light. I disabled it and the pop-up in the camera disappeared, but I quite like Holey Light so that's a bit of a pain. HL also seemed to need to change the Text-to-Speech language from English (UK) to English (US), although I'm not sure that is necessarily relevant.
Anyway, looks like maybe you've found the cause, nice one :good: . Hopefully Chainfire might be able to work out if it's anything he can fix.

Anyway, looks like maybe you've found the cause, nice one :good: . Hopefully Chainfire might be able to work out if it's anything he can fix.

Good to know. I'll see if I can reach out to this Chainfire fella and let him know. I'm from the US, so my language was already set to English (US). Like you say, maybe not relevant but another similarity in our settings anyhow. :highfive:

Hello All,
I discovered the prompt to turn on TalkBack stopped after I disabled an app I was using called Holey Light. Holey Light needed extra permissions so it could give me a notification light around the front camera. Don't know why, but after turning it off via the Accessibility > Installed Services setting, the prompt stopped happening.

I have tested this an it works ?but i want to use holey light it's nice ?
Accessibility Service could be the Cause
Go to Settings -> Accessibility-> Installed Services, and turn off Installed services one at a time. Check if the prompt disappears. For me, it was the "Select to speak" service that caused it. Other folks found Holey Light to be the cause.

Great find, I was scratching my head trying to figure out what was causing this. I use Holey Light although it does not work all the time, its better than nothing having one. Guess ill have to concede to samsung listening
Try aodNotify.
I had this problem as well, was good to find these posts. It looks to be solved in the latest update of Holey Light
Yes, not sure if it was a HL update (don't recall one) or the February security update (more likely), but I was able to turn the Voice Activation off on my camera and the pop-up hasn't come back.
