[APP] Open Mic+, Always listening mode also for us (thanks Moto X) - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

Hi to everyone,
I would like show you this great application, Open Mic+, the "not-only-Moto X" application to enable the always-listening mode for any Android smartphone.

Google Now, Everwhere.
With Open Mic+ for Google Now, access all the commands from anywhere on your phone. Simply say "Okay Google" or wave your hand in front of the screen. Screen on, screen off Google Now will be ready to listen.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Google Now becomes more conversational as after a search just say Okay Google to start a new one. And even better get the answers to your questions while your hands are tied, or when you're on the couch, or in the car.
TOMORROW'S FEATURES TODAY
Everybody's talking about the new Open Mic features for the Moto X, but now any phone that is running Jelly Bean or higher can have the same experience.
SEAMLESS
Open Mic+ will run in the background and can be configured to start at boot so that it truly becomes part of the phone.
OFFLINE
Open Mic+ uses offline voice recognition which means less data usage and faster results.
100% FREE
We saved the best for last. Open Mic+ has no ads, no in-app purchases, and is free to download. So why are you still reading this? Try Open Mic+ for Google Now.
I installed it and it is working smoothly yet but the developer looks promosing... and the application too! You can check it out here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.RSen.OpenMic

Key question - how's battery life?
Supposedly the s800 has an always on listening chip as well...?

It a nice feature for sure but it would be good to make it alive without the display on because our is so hungry ^_^

Thank you!

COuld someone post an apk file as I have the Package File is Invalid Bug DD: )

This is an awesome idea!
Tested on the Motorola RAZR M running 4.3.
Great combination with ActiveNotifications (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greatbytes.activenotifications)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there a way to theme this app to match the new always listening feature on the new Motorola X?

The tasker integration seems not working. It keeps going back to Google now instead of my Tasker task. Of course my Tasker allows external access. Please help as this is a huge thing for me.

this seems to have disappeared from Play?

Not on the play store. Would someone kindly post the apk?

You all are way better off following development on the Google+ page: https://plus.google.com/112424215551484520138/posts. This post isn't official.
It's been removed from the Play Store but you can still get it on the Amazon App Store. http://www.amazon.com/Open-Mic-for-Google-Now/dp/B00F106RGU/

It'd be nice if he would post his updates and stuff in here like many devs do

Waiting for Android 4.4 to hopefully incorporate the always on capabilities of the S800 though for zero battery drain.

My app for android

Hi Guys,
I'm building an app for android (Server Status) - it's currently in it's beta stage but would love if you would test it and suggest improvements etc.
This is your chance to get on board and contribute to an application that has been built on an X10 mini - none of this "too small screen" rubbish.
I welcome your comments and suggestions - it is a very simple application at the moment but will hopefully become something really useful to server administrators.
App Name: Server Status
Developer: Chris Priestland
Version: 1.14
It should be available for all X10 mini owners...
P.S. QR Code is in my avatar
I'm not gonna test it cause I know nothing about server, but I wish you the best for it
Well that's the beauty of this application - it just monitors the uptime of a website. It should be usable by people that know nothing about websites. So would be great if you could download it and see if it's easy to use or not.
Like i'm curious I've tested it, and wonder what "down" means. I imagine that is the status of the server, but I don't know what it's mean clearly. BTW, it's really simple to use and it's an light app that's is good too.
Glad you have tried it
Yes DOWN means that the server is not accessible via a web browser - so it shows you on the move that a website is not accessible - very useful for website developers / administrators - maybe this could be made more clear with a tick or a cross image?
Let me know your thoughts.

For people that know nothing about websites yes it could be a plus, by example just in adding a FAQ option when you press key menu, which will explain you the differents words of status.
Nice idea - will add it to my list for the update
If anyone else has any suggestions please feel free to post them here
Just installed and tested. You have a simple and easy to use app. Neat! Great Job Done.
Now, I can monitor my domain with a simple click
Glad you like it - there will be an update soon but need your suggestions for improvements.
The full version of Server Status has launched and you can get it by searching for server status on the market place or using the qr code below. It includes audio alerts, faqs, automatic updating and icons for UP and DOWN website status.

Thanks all for your input - hope you enjoy the full version I will be updating this app constantly with new features and improvements based on your suggestions so keep suggesting
Hey nice app I've just try it on my x10 mini pro and it works well. I joined what other guys have said
I think you should upgrade it by make this app a small widget
It's just an idea.
See ya
Thanks for your suggestions - will certainly consider it. I have decided to offer this as a free application instead of a paid application.
If you have anymore idea's for this or a new project please let me know

Suggest an App

So I figured with all the DEV's in one spot I would start a thread were people just suggest what apps they would like created. Sorry if this has already been done but I didn't find anything in my searches. So any ideas as to apps that you would like to see? Or apps that you want upgraded with certain features?
Like an app that automagicly imputs what song you are listening to into your text signatures. (Not my suggestion, simply an example.)
I'm sure this will sound odd but, how about something along the lines of whats called an EVPmaker like this
Seeing an app with the basic features of this program, using the Speakjet allophones sound file built in, tying it to the phones voice recorder and forcing it into airplane mode could be an interesting experiment.
I have seen discussions about how you should not be using a cell phone as a "ghost hunting tool" however it's an idea for those times when something goes BUMP in the night and all you have is your phone.

That's my docking station I use d
for my defy. (That's the 1st one that broke on me in the back. She's a good back up battery charger. But as u see I need to have my defy upside down to plug it to the speaker. Which I do but no app can fully rotate my music player completely upside for me. So I don't have to.flip it all the time to read whats on pandora or a text comes in. If I hand any skill/know how I would make that app for myself and share

I was actually thinking of coding an Android app like EVPmaker, but first I have to teach myself Android programming. Meanwhile you can try "ITC Ghost Talker" which is a Flash applet and runs in any (mobile) browser.

Moving to Q&A
i would like to see an alarm app that would allow you to set alarms (not alerts but a full blown alarm) based on calender events because of my college scheduled i have to set 3 alarms for the week and when i have a day off i normally either forget to turn it off a get woken up early on my day off or turn it off and forget to turn it back on. So since my schedule is in my calender it be nice to just set it based on that and not have to worry about turning then alarms off and back on

You are right. Finally thanks for the first question! lol
The app was too good indeed, it served more than 500 000 requests per day for a month or so. It was so good that in fact google banned it

Yes, i tried.
Angerfing & Panic Quiz were my last attempts in mobile development. They both didn't get enough downloads because I probably failed with the ideas or with the promotion. However the lack of interest forced me to quit. I literally gave up from everything online back then. I never had to be lucky enough to earn my food with online stuff.

Yeah man devloping apps isnt easy and making a life off it is even harder
Besides the one in a million apps that created a company, ie: uber, lyft...
The thing is they thought of something new that no one had to offer then.
If you want an app to succeed look at what your friends need, ask on social media
Look at what would simplify the lazymans life

[Hack?] Control your PC from your watch

Here is the link to the full howto: http://wolfebaine.blogspot.com/2014/12/control-computer-from-android-wear.html
So I'm now the proud owner of an LG G Watch. After reading all the flame wars on whether Android Wear was the greatest thing since sliced bread or the worst thing since un-sliced bread I decided to be conservative and opted for a first gen watch before dropping too much cash on the "newest-greatest". I'm not going to add to the already gigantic pile of Wear reviews, suffice to say I'm satisfied with it for what it is and what I paid for it.
But that's not the point of this post. 90% of the reason I bought the watch wasn't for what it did, but rather what can I make it do??? So I got it, rooted it, and started sideloading apps (xda). What I ended up with was an android smartwatch that could also:
Play a movie (QQPlayer + ES File Explorer + Bluetooth Headset)
Run an NES Emulator (NES-FC Lite + Bluetooth controller)
Open my garage door (V1_Bluetooth_Arduino app + my bluetooth/arduino garage door setup)
None of these were really way out there as far as plausibility so I continued my hunt to push the limits of what this thing can do.
The one place I feel Android Wear falls short is the 'control' aspect of things. It is a fantastic little devices for providing you with information, but at the end of the day I should be able to tap the thing on my wrist to control my every day life.......
The closest thing I could find right now is the IFTTT integration. Bravo in general to this website and moreso for making it compatible with wear. They get it. Tap a button to cause an action somewhere in the real or digital world.
So after playing around with existing recipes (https://ifttt.com/android_wear) I remembered a post I saw a while ago about controlling your computer with IFTTT and Dropbox vis SMS.
http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-issue-a-command-to-your-computer-with-a-text-message/
The premise is exactly the same except instead of using SMS as the trigger, you'll use android wear as a trigger.
Click the link a the top for the full howto plus a nice video of my watch starting my Christmas tree light show.
Happy Holidays!
Yesterday i received my moto 360 and i was very excited about it's possibilities. I
I bought this remote control app a few hours ago: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Relmtech.RemotePaid&hl=de
Only the full version of the app has android wear support, but it's worth it
Within the app you can create statusbar shortcuts which looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
There are various actions you can assign for these shortcuts but the most useful i think is the Remote File Manager option. This allows you to start a batch located at your computer.
Personally i have created 4 shortcuts for changing the sound output and the mouse speed of my pc with one touch on my moto 360.
On my moto it looks like this: (only the symbol for the shortcut is correct, not the colour)
You can also control your mouse with your wear. But it's not working 100% smoothly for me.

[APP] The most accurate fitness tracking app for Android Wear!

We are Ken and Houtan, two developers building a personal trainer AI for wearables. Over the past year we've built out tech that can automatically recognize a user's exercises, like bench presses and squats, if they are wearing an Android Wear smart watch. We are launching the beta program for our app, YouMove, and are inviting members of the XDA community to join. We would love your comments and feedback on what we've done and would be thrilled to hear your suggestions on what we should do next!
Apply for the Beta!
We recently added the ability for the app to learn new user exercises, which we are really excited about!
Other features we are currently testing:
- Automatic, passive recognition of weight training, calisthenics and cardio exercises
- Tracking of exercises, reps, sets, resting times, calorie counts, and intensity
- Detailed display of a user's workout in a timeline on watch and phone
We know the XDA community can provide some great feedback on what we've made so far. Thanks everyone!

This looks really cool! I've been tracking my workouts using Google Sheets for a while now, but if this works, I could totally see it replacing that. I'll let you know more of my thoughts after I sign up for the beta and try it out a bit, but I was just wondering if there is a way to see your progress by exercise type in some place on the app. I've always roughly guessed how I've improved over time at, say, bench press, and I know that I can do it now if I really wanted to, but it'd be really cool to have it readily available on the app.
Looks interesting, may take it for a spin!
Where is the link for download? Also:
1. Will you be having only dark color for the app?
2. Does it support Android Wear independently without the need of the phone?
2.1. Does it support the internal GPS of Sony Smartwatch, for instance?

Current it is a closed beta, so once you apply we will send an email with a link.
1. We are switching to a lighter color UI on the phone. Sticking to a dark color on watch to conserve battery life.
2. Yes, it works on the watch independently of the phone.
3. At this point it doesn't support GPS. Right now we are primarily focused on weight training and calisthenics. But when we do hit cardio, we'll make sure to use GPS on the watch.
I'm interested in trying this out. How's progress on the app?
Link not working
I would love to participate but the link is not working
I would like to apply for the beta but the link is not working.
I mostly go sporting/gym 3 times a week.
Can i get a beta because i was searching for this kinda app ?
Thanks !
