We got our hands on a new grooveShark client for Windows Mobile. This one allows you to load playlist from any GrooveShark Account . [ updated ]
Check out more screenshots and Video in our Full review of nanoGroove 1.0. We are also giving away 10 copies of the app.
did any one try it ? If you did could you plz let me know how the app handles an incoming call
How can I get the giveaway?
Hey,
I am the first user to respond to the announcement. How can I get the giveaway?
im also intrested in trying this as im a VIP member on groveshark... and have asked them 2 times why ther is no winmobile client or not even in the pipeline (blackberry,iphone,android,s60) right now! :S
go to the review page ( click ) and tell us why you need a free copy. 10 random winners will be chosen . Good luck
BTW this is an unofficial app. NOT developed by GrooveShark
The PPCGP will be discussing an indepth review of the nanogroove software on its NEXT Show on Wednesday, January 20th, 2009 @ 9PM EST.
http://www.ppcgp.info
I just purchased the app for $5.00.
So far this is what I have experienced.
-Sound quality much better and louder than the freeware groovefish app
-Very user friendly
-Doesn't lock up or freeze
-Can add as many songs as you want and queue them up as you please
-Album art on most songs is nice to have
-Can hit the power button to turn the phone off and music continues *HUGE PLUS*
-Very finger friendly -finger scroll up or down- i had problems with the freeware app picking songs as I tried to scroll or struggling to scroll in general
-All songs play - freeware app 70% of the songs didn't play and would remain on "requesting stream"
WHAT its MISSING
-Saved song playlist - an app that cost money should have this small feature or at least a recent search *10 previous songs played*
-When you are listening to a song and a call comes through, the song should be paused and restored if the call is ignored or when you are done with the call *you have to open the app and click play in the player currently*
-Navigation pad should be compatible with the scroll list so you don't have to use your fingers if you don't want to
If I find out anything else I will let you guys know.
IMO, its worth the 5 bucks especially if the developer keeps making improvements..just hope for an auto update function when that happens.
it doesnt work on my HD2
Am sorry to say that this program doesn't even initialize on my hd2 using wifi and gprs both connections.
I wrote an email to assistance about this, and hope they reply soon
tested and bought.
i tried the free trial (you can open the trial version as many times as you want- it will only run for 5 minutes). I decided for $5 (i spend that much at starbucks wo even thinking twice) i might as well give it a shot.
I am very pleased with the results (but i am not real particular).
1. you can navigate to any song or artist and build a playlist that will play automatically (you don't have to pick one song at a time, listen, search for a new one, over and over etc.)
2. nice professional interface.
3. Playlists- ok- i hate to argue with the reviewers and mrhankey but this is my experience with the playlist.
a. i do not pay for a VIP membership at grooveshark.
b. i cannot create a playlist on the mobile client (nanogroove) but i can access the playlists i have created on my free subscription to grooveshark. I don't know if i am supposed to be able to or if it is just a fluke- i just know that i can bc i double checked before posting here.
so i think it is pretty cool.

no need to be sorry. the function works for me. like i said- not sure if it is supposed to, but it does for now.
I may well be -very- biased in saying this, but charging for the use of someone else's free service seems extremely inappropriate to me. I thought I was skimming the edge of legality with Groovefish given that it doesn't even attempt to support Grooveshark's advertising, but this may be a step too far.
That said, it's no skin off my nose either way! The app seems quite easy to use, and I'll certainly keep an eye on it's development. I certainly won't be paying for it though.

good point, its just a content deliver system. Though there are some services that do this already (twitter apps, Facebook apps, IMing software etc.)
works for me
hi, i have an HD2 and it works for me, very guud program!
Excellent program. Great and elegant interface.
Nonetheless... Indeed it is somehow weird to charge for the use of a third person's free service

If the app works correctly, and makes it easier on us *the user* the fee asked for is small. For 5 bucks you can buy a big mac combo from Mcdonalds.. or for 5 bucks you get all the features that actually work in the groovefish application.
I have seen what freeware can get you, and now you can see what an inexpensive music apps gets you. Well worth the $

Yes, you are right, it's worth the price. It's an excellent program. Gonna buy it.

DESCRIPTION
Hi all,
I have been trying for a while to find some GPS/CellID tracking programs that work fine but most of them are buggy and not very accurate. That's why I decided to write my own!
Features:
- Ability to generate KML and GPX files that can be opened with any tool that supports that type of file.
- Realtime tracking with Google Earth or Google Maps.
- You can create and manage your own trips
- No internet connection is needed when using TrackMe (Offline mode)
- Ability to display your current position on your PDA
- Geofence with SMS and email notifications
- You can send your current position by email or sms to other person
- Ability to upload pictures. TrackMe will extract the GPS information/Creation date (if any)
from the pictures and it will match it with your existing GPS data
- Search for closest user based on your last uploaded position
- GPS powersave mode available
- You can use your own server instead of my free server
- Stealth mode
- You can force updates with your own custom icon and comments.

If you guys are interested in this program I will keep it updated, otherwise this will be probably one of the last versions!
Please leave your comments, suggestions and ideas here.
Have fun!
Regards
You can Donate if you like my tools. That's always a good motivation for future developments!! Thanks a lot!
that's pretty dope! Where does it upload the data to? Any chance of sharing the source code and people could add to it? maybe open source it?
Thanks kireol.
Right now it's uploading the information to the mysql database that I have with my web hosting.
Regarding the source code... I think it could be a good idea. Maybe once the program is completely stable I may do it. Thanks for your suggestion.
for sure man, you did a great job! And I for one would love to get involved. I was a programmer at Ford for 15 years(C++/PHP/Perl/Java) until those jobs went to India and forced me to throw away my college degree. I've been dieing to get back into programming (5 years now). This last weekend I snagged MS visual studio .net and the wm6 sdk and started compiling. This might b a good transition for me to get back into thinking that way, if you decide you'd like to OS it that is

Thanks ishkatar.
You just need to go to Config, and enter there a username and password.
The account is created automatically as soon as you start uploading GPS data.
If for any reason the username already exists or there is any other error, you will be notified.
We always approve such moves!!!! Go on and keep up the good work!!!
Very cool.
Maybe you could release the table structure and a way for people to host their own data...like a personal web app.

Wow ... works perfectly!!! I just did a test walk around my office and it mapped it perfectly!!! Good work Staryon. I'm really eager to see how you did it.
Thanks a lot for all your comments. That really encourages me to keep updating the software.
laakness, at this moment the data is inserted into the mysql tables by using HTTP calls. My website gets the HTTP call and depending on the command it will do the specified task. That means that what you mention it would work if they have a website with PHP and a mysql database. A nice feature that I could add in the future is to make the inserts directly to the database instead of using HTTP calls.
However this is something that may not work for many web hostings because they usually don't allow access to mysql from external applications (which is my case by the way)
For the KML files (Google Earth's files) I used a structure that I liked in one of the tools that I found that does something similar to this. I made some modifications though.
I edited my previous post. Obviously where I said URL calls I meant HTTP calls.
Sorry for the confusion!
I have not yet installed it but it looks really cool from the screen shots. I have been using 3DTracking (free) but it is not without its problems and does not look as comprehensive as this. Does it carry on logging position after you power-down (standby) the Kaiser? 3DTracking does and its a real pain as it means you have to keep the screen on all the time!!
Thanks for the info.
I actually do host my own site using PHP/Apache/Mysql which is why I was asking

This app lets you shut the screen off which is great. This app also alows you to set your upload and update intervals. They are great and needed options.

Very good. In that case I can provide everything that you need to use your website.
However, I will have to make it some changes in my code because at this moment the HTTP calls are hardcoded to my website. Once I have this done I will post it here.

Re: Announcing *TrackMe 1.0.0* GPS Tracking tool with Google Earth
Very cool indeed…
We must be neighbors of a sort. I work in Herndon (Worldgate) and was pretty surprised to a bird’s eye view of my office. Hope you aren’t getting stuck doing that toll road shuffle for an am commute – lol.
I installed it on my Wing, but it is not responding.
first error I got. unable to open port 4
I changed to port 1 and what I get is - waiting for gps respond.
not working for me.
Do I have to be outside the house for this or online?

I have written an app called TouchRC to enable me to control my windows media center (vista and windows 7) from my phone.
Download link and screenshots can be found on the codeplex site here.
I will try and pad this post out a bit more as soon as i get decent amount of time to do it!

Nice! Too bad I have Media Center 2005 or I would love this.
i will try it
i cant get the wmcontroller app to work in WIndows 7 RC'
does anyone knows what to do
I tried to get this potentially great software to work with Vista Premium incl. TV Pack but whenever I start VMC I get an error message 'can't load...' :-(
Any help is most welcome.
what are the limitations of this software, evorgevol?
specifically the following 4:
- what type of connection(s) does it use to connect to VMC/w7MC (wifi only, or bt optional)?
- is it intelligent enough to work with VMC plugin's? (my movies, MCEweather, daemon tools etc)
- is this a complete replacement for an MCE remote - ie, could i remove the IR-transmitter/reciever?
- is it intelligent enough to realise what menu it is in, and filter out un-used options (ie: 'channel change' and 'record' would be removed if in pictures/dvd area)?

It connects over TCP/IP, so it would have to be connected to your local area network.
This is only really a simple program that interacts with the VmcContoller application, so can only do reasonably basic stuff. I have added functionality to so that it can use the MyMovies application metadata, though most of this is still in progress.
It depends on what you use your remote for as to whether this can be a complete replacement. I currently dont have, and have no intentions in the near future of, having a number/keyboard pad. So if you use these a lot, then it probably won't be a full replacement.
I had planned to make the now playing screen a bit more wise about what type of media is playing, and display different icons accordingly, but this has been marked as more a of a 'nice to have' in the application which i might work on in the future, but have other things I'd rather get working first.
Hope that answers some of your queries...
evorgevol
indeed they all are 'nice-ities', and it wont stop me considering playing with your app.
thanks for answers
Unfortunately, the media center network controller software can not be installed on a Vista X64 pc. I would really like to use this app on my mobile device!
Regards,
André
Man this is absolutely awesome!!!
I don't have a MS MediaCenter solution but MythTV, so I wanted to do the same app like you did but for MythTV quite a while.... I already gave up in searching a usable GUI framework like your Fluidity and started writing my own (Which took basically up all my time so far - that's why there is not even an app yet ... But your solution kicks the living sh**t out my little approach.
Is it ok if I borrow up the framework and perhaps some junks of code from your app??? I don't think I'd get it done better if I would try myself, so it would be nice if I wouldn't have to reinvent the wheel. I will of course list you in the credits page of the app.
I spend some hours browsing through your code and I think I got almost through in understanding how the controls basically work. The only thing I miss is the complete overview of how the binding to the actual data is done. The idea with the Templates for the single Items is pretty neat and makes it extremly flexible!

Thanks for reminding me... I forgot to give the original author credit!!! The control framework I use on TouchRC is called Fluid controls, and it's on codeplex here.
I will update my codeplex to give him the credit he deserves, I certainly wouldnt have been able to do any of my app without it!!
Just for thought though, if you create a TCP/IP server for your app, and use the same receive commands as VmcController, then you should just be able to use my app entirely! Or, if you do make it different, and you want me to, I can add your commands to my app too, so that the user would be able to control both windows and myth from the same application!
Thanks,

WIN 7 RC1 how to install
so u guys have a lil question...
how to install this awesome prog on win 7 RC 1?
ive installed touchRC on my XDA Orbit...
then installed VMCControl on my win7...
then loaded this zipfile
http://www.nloit.co.uk/downloads/vmccontrollerwin7source.zip
and ran the DevInstall.cmd...
opened up MC...
added the name of my PC to touchrc...
ran touchrc...
clicked on "Now Playing"...
recieved Error massage: "Connection could not be established"
WTF am I doing wrong???

Can you load up the http server for vmc? (ie, on a diff computer, go to http://hostpc:40510) and see if that works? if it doesn't, then it probably means that VmcController isn't working properly. If this is the case, then revert to the codeplex site of VmcController to ask for help.

Ah, I saw the codeplex page but I somehow thought you guys were the same
Thanks a lot for the offer, but I plan to build a 'richer' remote client for MythTV. Means, besides a remote control function I want to be able to browse the Program Guide, Recordings, Movies, Music, Pictures on the phone and select them to play on the PC/TV.
And I have some other ideas which would be pretty neat, but for now I am already happy if I get the above items finished. (technically thats usually no prob, but once you solved all the tiny little problems and know how to code the whole thing it often gets boring )

Good to know. I'am going to keep a close eye on your project
Hey evorgevol,
any updates on the app yet?
I now have the basic server + client API done so far for my project. I hope I'll reach the alpha state up to your level within the next 1 or 2 months... Then it should really go quick...

I've been stupidly busy recently, so haven't had any chance to work on it for a while. I'm hoping that will change next month. I have made some minor updates to it (but not checked it in), but won't be making another release for a couple of weeks yet. Hopefully soon though!!! How's yours coming along?
Ok.
I am closing in on an imaginary target release for this app. I keep saying it's coming... and it doesn't.
The app is 90% complete, maybe more, but i have been drag-assing. I dont have a XboX, or a job. But I have made a cardboard box that looks like XBox so i can play. I play picture in brain so now i am good gamer.

Score alarms
New Game alarm
View you and your buddies scores and rewards.
Twitter/AIM/Facebook your scores/status...
Quick SMS yer bud.
That is stage 1.
Stage 2 adds Playstation Buds.
I think 3 is WoW.
4 WII? Not sure that one is doable.
I hesitate to mention stage 5 of EVE online buddys.
Did I miss another network? Lemme know.
Bear with me while I finish up a gooder release of the CycHowdy Messenger, cause that is worth do.
If you comment on my pre post english before I finish posting I will walk over to your desk and press your keys.
Type Long and Prosper
XBoX capacity Goes Here
Playstation Network goes here...
Argue for Stage 3
Stage 4...
I guess i could look at the other current MMORPG and scout for victims.
At this point i bet this app is crazy cool or obsolete.
but stranger things have happened...
awesome... anxiously waiting
Name the Baby
Hi.
So I am picking up where I paused.
I am going to work on the buddy list storeage now. So we can add/remove buddys from our list.
I already got the import from WMLive app if anybody is using that.
I am putting out the call for testers and a web person to make the html part. If you like XBoX and want to "make the magic happen", please let me know.
Also I need a ini file from Amnaya Xbox app and the Buddy Alarm app if i am to make the import function for them as well... I guess I should make an export/sync option too so this app can manage any buddy list synchronizations between all the xbox apps.
I should have the XBoX tool ready shortly so we can all make feature requests...
And we need a name for this thing. Keep in mind that while XBox will have the most features we can access, this app will move on to Playstation Network next. So words like Buddy, Console, and Notifier are keywords.
So Battlefield Heroes can get player info from a id#...
http://www.battlefieldheroes.com/heroes/195095890
So can Team fortress 2...
awesome cant wait
sloppy-face
ok.
so i was hoping to use KVV HtmlToday to display info, but i can't seem to get the url working locally. No big deal. I am still messing with it but doesnt seem to be happenin.
I will code up the IE loading process and send it on out to the bunch of people who wanted to try it.
I wonder who is running what today screen?
WM6 titanium panels are going to be the most interesting.

Hi.
So I am working on the console app. Seems to work pretty good on the first test. IE pops open and zoop its gone.
The irony is i cant get activesync to connect. gotta find the IE cache and copy it to my storage card and then zip it up so i can get a good look at it.
then zoom i will have data.
I had to write the bluetooth sync Utility into my Mortifier app so i could update scripts.
OK.
Where was I?
I am working on this as we speak.
I am wondering about IE running in the background?
more soon.
Ok.
Here's the core of WmX.
XboX works completely.
PSN network is a few hurdles away from being ready.
I have questions.
Hurdle 1. My internet explorer will actually close if its in the background. Before it has downloaded the whole PSN page. Yet IE will sit in the foreground no problem
Two options: CBrunner.exe which works great to minimize IE, or just open IE with Mortscript and then switch to the today page. This should also work great, except for IE irregularities on the phone i am using with wm653.
It may be that only my phone's IE closes early. If you try it, whether through my app or on your own, if IE sits in the background and loads PSN no problem, then I can push forward.
I may wrestle with this some more this weekend.
Hurdle 2. If you had the PSN data what would you like to do wit it?
If you have titanium, a plugin could be made with the graphics and data from the web site. thats what i was going for.
this data could also be incorporated into a theme for mobile shell3 or iphonetoday or whatnot.
At some point i may pick up the xbox part and incorporate it into my StatusTicker app just for s&giggles.
If anyone wants to pick up the titanium plugin, let me know and i will help.
Hurdle 3. If we can get a KVV HtmlToday plugin that can show a web page from a local directory on the phone, we can have a WmX today plugin. I have asked the author if it is possible, but he may never respond... I know the @ sign has something to do with grabbing a file locally, but when i try @\Storage Card\WmX\Web\MyConsole.hml it doesnt work.
Enclosed is a complete directory of the XboX.mscr script, which does both, XBoX and PSN, you can just switch back and forth.
Also are the IE Cache files.

Wowee.
Thanks much.
I will try that!
KVV Html Today
Well whattaya know,
The today plugin works great with local html. Thanks much.
Let me just say what a big fan I am of KVV's work, not just his html today plugin, but darn near every one of his softwares is also excellent.
Here is a link to his site. (Google translate works great).
Well now that that hurdle is removed, I will press on and get the xbox Today panel fleshed out.
If people report that they dont have the same issues with IE closing prematurely, then the PSN part will proceed as well. I can mock it up using the cache files right now. Once you can see it in action you can tell me how much more effort to place in the Today page.
Thanks to KVV.
cant waitttt
Yeah this does sound like its gonna be pretty interesting. I have been looking for a way to monitor my XBL acct. I came from the iphone to the HD2. So dont let me down heh.
Hi.
So here is a better test version to mess with.
Most stuff works sorta, but this test is for PSN and running Internet Explorer to grab datas.
So if u view your PSN stats u can begin testing.
(Should say PSN actually)
If u want to test the non background version, run the no-cbr.mscr
if it seems stuck, run the wmxkill.mscr and u can test anew.
Next i will tidy up the xbox output and set it to work with kvv Today plugin.
Of course u can mess with the XboX buddy menus by switching to XboX from the Menu.
This version leaves all the debug stuff out and PSN isn't prematurely Exit'ed.

This app works great man. Is there any setting to make it autosync anything you make?
I tried evernote long ago but didn't find it much use since there was no winmo app. Any tips or tricks?

Evernote has a WinMo app, but it is pretty bare-bones and has not been supported for a long time.

I'm not sure what you mean by sending notes through bluetooth. Would you elaborate?
Adding more colour schemes is unlikely. The app currently includes two versions of the interface, one for high-resolution displays and one for the low. With more variants of each, it could quickly become unmaintainable. I can't change the background colour programmatically either, because it is baked into the graphics. They are all dithered for 16-bit colour, and dithering is incompatible with transparency.

It's simply you can send the notes you have to another device, say to another phone or pc, using bluetooth.

The thing I wonder about is what to do with the note on the receiving end. Official Evernote clients cannot properly transfer notes outside of synchronization. Exporting to HTML is possible, but would raise the question of what to do with file attachments.
Of course, if you can connect to internet through Bluetooth, then you can simply sync.

Yeah i remember trying it out specifically because they had one, but it was terrible. Yours works great on my htc touch pro 2 though, so thanks
Perfect timing: I just started trying out Evernote this week and wasn't really keen on Evernote's own application because it's useless offline. And here comes your app and looks great.
I got one problem, though: It refuses to connect via wifi. No problem at all via 3G, but on WiFi it steadily shows "connecting".
Oh, and being able to create new tags would be a good addition.

Thanks for complimenting the app. I have not used WiFi in a while, but will try to reproduce your problem.
Started a new work item for tag creation: http://peoplesnote.codeplex.com/workitem/1005.
Voting on feature requests gets them implemented sooner.
Since restarting my phone a few times, the app doesn't hang up while trying to connect via WiFi anymore - it just takes way longer than via 3G for some reason, but it's usable.
Edit: Forget about the described problem. I'm sure it was a generally lagging WiFi connectivity that day. It works like a charm in other WiFi networks and now at the same one, too.
I apologize for taking so long to release a new version — just did not have much time to spare. Version 0.38 implements one of the most-requested features, letting you choose "All Notebooks" to browse, search, and sync all your notebooks together.
http://peoplesnote.codeplex.com/releases/view/83479
Great App!
Great App! Working on my old Axim X51V!
I see on your website that you have Notes popping up with a timed alarm reminder as low priority. Let me put in a vote for higher priority.
I would use it as a timed "sticky note" to myself to do something.
Keep up the good work!
Just released version 0.39, making it possible to delete notes from the main note list screen via a tap-and-hold menu.
http://peoplesnote.codeplex.com/releases/view/84127
Version 0.40 adds an option to compact the database from the profile screen. Compacting a database can make it smaller and faster by removing empty spaces left over by editing, moving, and deleting notes.

cant log in
It must be just me; since nobody else has mentionned it; but I cannot log in to evernote at all on my HD2. On 3G it immediately comes back with network error (never even tries to open a data connection). On wifi it seems to be trying to do something in the background but after a few minutes to just goes back to the login screen.
Any ideas??

It sounds like the WiFi connection is slow and times out. With 3G, try to establish a data connection first, such as by opening a web browser. I just created a work item for this: workitem:1055.
0.41 release
After a temporary break, development continues. Version 0.41 adds some more polish to the user interface, as well as a new in-app player for WAV file attachments.

Regrads,

This program is making all the right steps in all the right directions, it has great prospects.
There are some features that Evernote has that I hope would arrive in this software in the not-too-distant future. I make more handwritten notes that any other form of note taking, and what I find with 'PeoplesNote' is that the 'Ink Note' feature is just a one page scribble pad without any option to scroll or add a page. It would be fantastic if the Ink Note feature of PeoplesNote could automatically scroll as the old Windows Note does as you approach the bottom of the page. Evernote's Ink Note recognises that you are reaching the bottom of the page and facilitates extra space to scroll into. Additionally, it would be very helpful to have an erase feature with Ink Note.
Please don't take this as criticism, I can see this app being extremely useful for as long as Evernote allow you to develop it.
I will soon be an Android convert even thought i have never owned a smart phone. I have used PDA's since my first Dell Axim. I stuck with the Windows Mobile 2003 platform until the third gen ipod touch came out. I switched to the 3rd gen touch and used it till it died; then i got my trusty 4th Gen ipod touch.
Now i am ready to move on to one device, phone and PDA in one. The natural choice seems to be iphone 5 since i am familiar with ipods (even though i am no real fan of apple).
The thing is, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is beautiful! The screen is huge and widgets are "cool." I really want to go Android.
This leads to my problem. Finding adequate software. I have broken down my needs in categories below. PLEASE, if anyone knows of a good software, paid or free, that will do what i want, please suggest it to me.
For starters, CALENDARS.
I have used Pocket Informant for the ipod for awhile. (Used it on the Win mobile before that) I love it. Played with the Android version on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 and i gotta say, it needs work. A lot of work.
The calendar that comes with the tab is nice too, and so is jorte, but my biggest problem (and it seems like a small one) is that I like to look at the month view and see the times listed in the mirco text before the appointment. otherwise i have to open each appointment or change views to see the start times.
Attached pictures show exactly what i am talking about. Both are screen shots of the current version of Pocket Informant. Notice the start times on the iOS version. Also notice how the android version (the second one) looks "undone."
{
"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"
}
How can I, in good conscience go from the above.... to this.....
even on the samsung galaxy's beautiful screen that is shameful.
My Main criteria for a new calendar program is a month view as close to the first image as possible. Specifically i really like how in month mode you can see the start times of appointments in the Apple version. I have tried several different calendar programs and have yet to find an Android one that does this. What happened to Android being all about choice? Why does every single calendar app appear to just be different fonts on the same engine?
The next point of contention is Video playback
My main criteria for a playback app is that it shows the time remaining on the progress bar.
What i mean is that, on the ipod, youtube, and just about EVERYWHERE, the progress bar (scrubber) shows the current time to the right of the slider, and time remaining on the left. I like this.
On EVERY Android video player i have tried it shows the current time on the right, but the left is stuck at the total time. It does not move. It does not count down how much time is left.
Again, it feels like every app is using the same engine, with different "window dressing."
Is there an app out there that can handle the time left? Please let me know.
My secondary Criteria for a playback app is i would like it to be able to handle embedded thumbnail tags in mp4 files. This seems like a no-brainer. iTunes does it. iPods do it. But i have yet to find a single Android app that will correctly display the embedded image. They, instead, choose to display a random screenshot for the thumbnail. Where is the variety that an open system should bring?
In a perfect world, the Android app would also sort the shows into groups based on the show name and season, for properly tagged files. Ipod touch does it. Seems simple enough, yet again, i cannot find a program that can do this.
Next up, Syncing.
I think i have this one covered. I really like itunes. And before you say "bloatware" let me just say that the UI on winamp sucks. iTunes is beautiful, easy to navigate, sort, and manipulate my mp3 files. The Closest i have found is Media Monkey. But to tell you the truth, i am not sure i am ready to give up itunes yet. I love my playcounts dating back to 2006. So, i have been using iSyncer and it seems to do the trick. When set up properly it syncs and even syncs playcounts back to iTunes. I hear DoubleTwist will let you sync your Android device to iTunes also; but iSyncer seems to be a more elegant solution.
Audio Playback
Again, as with videos none of the audio apps that i have found show how much time is left in a song on the right hand side of the scrubber. This is an epidemic!
Also, I have mp3 files that are audio books and Howard Stern Shows. I cannot listen to these in one session, and switch back and forth with music. In itunes/iPod-land i would simply use "get info - Options - Media Kind" to switch these mp3 files to audio books or podcasts and check mark the box allowing it to remember position. This one is important. I really need help finding an audio player that allows this. Allowing me to save my position in "Howard", for example, listen to some music, then go back to where i left off in the Radio Show.
This Leads to Podcasts. Video and Audio.
I listen to quite a few podcasts. I could sync them over from iTunes using iSyncer, but it throws them in the same folder as my music making them hard to find. This is very messy. I hope a later version of iSyncer takes care of this. Until then, I would probably use an app to download them directly to the S3. I just downloaded a program called Podcast Addict. This may do the trick, but it is, again, inelegant and seems undone. Can someone point me in the direction of a GREAT podcast catcher app?
Is this all too much to ask of Android apps or am I just looking in the wrong places. If that is the case, please let me know, and i will check out whatever app fits the criteria outlined above. When i started looking, these seemed like minor things. Especially on a system that is all about being open; for the sake of choice. This seems to be a theme when people talk about why Android is so much better than iOS.
Sorry to sound like i am ranting.. maybe i am ranting... but i really want this to work. But i cant compromise on the user experience just to have a bigger screen. I need software that is up to the task, and i can't seem to find it on my own. Any input you can give will be greatly appreciated.
thanks for listening!

Hi,
Feel free to tell me what's not working for you in Podcast Addict. FYI a new major release it's on its way with a new UI
Yes i agree that iOS' Calendar is more polished. But i still sure you can find some really good calendar app on the Google Play. Not sure if it going to be free (to be that polished like iOS' one).

No offense, but that is exactly the problem. Everyone i speak to locally, and also on the net, always say the same thing. "there are great ones on google play." But they aren't using good ones, nor do they tell me any good ones that could even come close to the polished look of PI for iOS and no one has suggested one that shows the times in the month view. Those are the two main selling points for me.
but thanks for responding.

Nothing is wrong with Podcast Addict, per se. But, what i am looking for would be a podcasting program that allowed me to add mp3 files as podcasts. Also, i was having trouble navigating. I would find myself trapped in a menu with no way to get back. (this was a couple of weeks ago. I will try to do it again, so i can give you a step by step example; so that the above statement makes more sence)
But overall, i like podcast addict. I am sticking with it. I just wish i could add my howard stern mp3's there manually so they show up as podcasts. Like i do in itunes.
Check those:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mikado.bizcalpro
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greenbeansoft.CheckmarkCalendar
I would suggest you pick one which looks for you better and install it to check how it is in action.
P.S.: personally i use very simply stuff like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.gowidget.calendarwidget

Going to download the free one first.. .then check out the other two. the first 2 don't appear to show times in the main month window. But this might be something that is in settings. They all look very nice, "polished."
thank you for responding.
You have a podcast without any feeds ?
I was thinking about allowing to play external audio files with the app with the resume feature. They might not looks like a usual podcast, but will appears in the playlist

Yes. I download it as an mp3 file. And in itunes tag it as a podcast. Then it shows up as a regular podcast would on the ipod. Haven't found an android equivalent yet.

Of course you do what ever you want. I'm just trying to understand in which case you might need to do that. It's so simple to subscribe to a feed, enable auto-refresh/auto-download/auto-queue then just press play. Maybe you didn't find a non-itunes feed. In that case if you tell me the name of the podcast I can try to find it
