Hi
I have programming experience in java, but i never did anything with cellphones and specially android.
I wanted to make a widget which will read very simple data from a small webpage, and to have it being updated once in a while on my home screen.
So,
1. Is it hard to do? If not, where can i find some tools and guides to do that?
2. maybe there is an app which does that for me?
thank you!

This is a great resource for Android development...
http://www.anddev.org/
I do know that there is an app that does exactly what you're talking about, but it wasn't very good when it first came out. I'll have a look and see if I can find it, but I can't remember the name. It was in the Android Apps & Games forum.
There's also an Android Software Development forum on xda, so that's always worth a look as well.
Good luck mate

Not sure if this is the one I was thinking of, but a search of the Android software forum on here found this...

Sorry mate - I'm not familiar with it. Ask on the app thread. Someone there should be able to help.
Maybe check this out too.

i'd like a real webpage with text and images
is it possible and im doing something wrong? because i can't get it to work (i added the URL but there's nothing in the widget)

That’s right, guys. Just download from your phone’s browser and install like a normal app. It’s currently working great on my Evo 3D although I’m not sure if this will work on phone’s equipped with Android 2.1 and lower (per Google) but I don’t think that will stop you from trying, right? Let us know if it works for you! Enjoy!
Oh — and if the new Market ISN’T your cup of tea or starts to act a little wonky, you can always go back to the old Market following these simple steps:
Go into your phone’s Settings
Select “Manage Applications”
Select the “All” tab at the top
Scroll down to Market app and select it
Select “Uninstall Updates”
Now have your old Market back!

There is more of a Window 7 style feel. Takes a little getting used to BUT is very nice on the eyes Here is a youtube link

I like it. Thanks.
Very cool. I dig the new market interface.
Queued downloads is my favorite new feature.
Wouldn't surprise me if Microsoft tried suing Google now lol

Always wanted to ask / spread the idea of a simple tool which mirrors the display output so that you can use any app as a hud in car windshield.
Is smth like this easily manageable?
As we say: Would go away like cutted bread.

yes but I think he meant (as I have also thought about) mirroring every app automatically so that it can be used as a HUD, eg: Mirror view of Google maps / Navigation

A good suggestion : Since month I'm trying to understand how to mirror-display a simple text, and can't find anything in the API!
Finally did it!!
I know its late, but after reading all these forums, i was convinced that there are no existing mods, or any other ready made solution available.
So thought of doing it myself. Changed the source and built a custom ROM on top of lineageOS. Added a new option (HUD Mode )
Here is a working video of my HUD display. cheers.

Since im a new member, im not allowed to post links. Use the above without space.
on some things i need to right click to get the same menu that i would from the right click on a mouse..
i looked everywhere but cant find patch / tweak or any info how to do this
anyone know this?
thanx for replies
at least on the browser I find that just long pressing on a link is like a right click.I'm not sure if it works on everything though

it doesnt.. in my dropbox files for example, i need the same right click menu as w/ mouse on pc
thanx
does android even support right-clicks?
long-pressing..k.. but anything else?
Wouldnt understand why someone would need that option... if you're missing something via your browser, try an app/mobile website?
should be workaround enough?

oh, well.. as there is no official WebOS-app for DropBox out by now there seems to be no choice but to consider changing to either another service, or OS.. guess right-clicking is not supported.. at least that's what I've read in a 2009er thread here https://developer.palm.com/distribution/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=448

first of all, it's easier for you to use market enabler to unlock restricted content. thus, you can download anything from the play store.
but here, I did that for you, fresk apk.

I'd recommend checking into one of those market locale changers too, but I think you might need to be rooted.

Thanks to both of you! Cheers guys.
Thank you indeed. I believe we need to be rooted for Market Enabler to work properly?
Secondly, how can we get the fresh apk of an app from the market like you did? It will be helpful.
BTW thanks again.

yes. ME wont work without root.
fresh apk downloaded from the play store using ME method. to dowload it form your pc, you need the Apk Downloader for chrome, but latest chrome broke it already. you need to be on chrome 21 to use this if you need it so much.

For some reason I understand his situation. even thou if he searched before, it's pretty complicated. Is he rooted? Is he able to use the apk downloader for chrome?
For some reason, there are some causes why someone invented the forum. At last this thread will be shown on the search engine for future reference.
So why wasting your time posting if you can help?

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy s3 and use Facebook a fair bit.
Im looking for sounds for notifications if someone could so kindle assist in helping me find where I could download one from I would appreciate it?
I have looked at a few sights but could not find any.
Some users say make your own but im unsure how I can do this.
Again I searched but did not find any clear instructions.
Cheers
you can use 3rd party app's like zedge
or copy from PC to your "notifications" folder on the phone.
