Hello all,
The default HTC Album app shows pictures very nice and smooth. We all use it.
Older HTC Album couldn't show even filename of the picture. Now I flashed new AxLor DF2 WWE ROM. It has improved HTC Album app inside, so now you can easily view filename of the picture.
My REQUEST is to add "send by BlueTooth" function to that HTC Album application.
I know that it is possible, because XDA developers already hacked HTC Album app. This will be really useful.
BECAUSE when people show pictures to their friends with HTC Album app, they could easily send/share current picture by BT. Otherwise it's needed to open file explorer, waste time on finding that picture and only then sending it by BT, what is not convenient at all.
WHAT do we need to be done ?
Extend (hack) HTC Album's menu with "send by BT" option
[*]Make an external app that will hook current opened in "HTC Album" picture's reference to send it by BT
[*]Make Pop-up interface
...
i think this is a very good idea, hopefully someone picks up on it
I know many people will like this feature.
So, please, write comments!
This is a good idea; but sadly enough this question was bean asked several times / on several threads; without anyone who was able to find a solution fore this.
I even contacted the HTC Client Service; The only response I got was: Ow; we will investigate and see what we can do fore next updates!??
Unfortunately; they use the word "Sense" in there product; but sadly enough we don't find any sense in there logic.
But if it can help you; Resco Photo Manager have these option.
Yeah, I know about Resco PhotoManager.
But there are some things that I don't like about it:
* It is PAID program
* It doesn't scroll pictures vertically like HTC Album does
Well if you get this to work I would be very pleased too. It is incredible but to send something with bluetooth you almost need a Masters degree in WM 6.5.
Is there a program that helps send and receive files (not just pictures) through bluetooth for WM6 and above? Easy to use and reliable?
Hello!
So a while back I used this app, which I forgot tthe name of, to stream my phones screen to my computer. The app set up a local website that I could access on my pc (if we were on the same network of course) and then view a live "feed" from my phone at like 5-15 fps.
I don't wanna use. jar java applications on my pc, which is the case with most apps I was able to find, so can someone help.me find this app again?
Thank you
Found an app by the name of webkey that pretty much serves my purpose, any other app recommendations is still welcpme though
Hello,
my name is Cygnus01 and i am a new member of this forum.
I bought my G2 mini some months ago. I like it but sadly it don't have the photosphere function in its camera app.
I've tried to upload the google's camera but nothing changed.
Finally i've found one solution.
If you want to try the Photosphere function, please install these two apps:
1. DU Speed Booster (Cleaner) from googleplay
2. 360 Panorama (See the attachement because is NOT in google play. I don't found it in the market... i don't know why).
Now you stop all the activities and clear all with the first program (there is a widget for this action).
This first activity is necessary to have much RAM usable by the second program.
Run the second program and ... Voilà! the photosphere!
With a little bit of training i've made some good photo.
The resolution is not high but ... better then nothing!
If someone have anothe solution for photosphere (without rooting the phone) please send it to me.
Note:
I've tried also "Focus Camera (BETA)" and "Procaputre 2" but the first generate photosphere photos with terrible quality (orrible!) and the second crash when the program try to merge the photo frames.
Bye.
Cygnus01
Thanks Cygnus0!
The developer (Occipital) of app has stop Android development. They make only for iOS and BlackBerry now. That why you didn't find 360 Panorama on Play Store
What a pity...

oh... what a pity. It is a very good software for photosphere (the best excluding the official google's photosphere).
A little trick
Using both "Clean Master" and "Du Speed Booster" (using the widgets) i've much memory then using "Du Speed Boster" alone (over 400 MB free).
Bye.

I got my hands on Silvercrest selfie remote button. I cannot post the link (yet), but it is easily googleable.
I was hoping that I could use it outside the native app, e.g. with Tasker. No such luck... First of all, I cannot even detect the button outside the app... I was hoping it would register as a Bluetooth keyboard or something, but it is not seen at all. In fact, I can have BT switched off completely (as well as NFC) and it still works in the native app an nowhere else...
Any idea how I could capture the button presses? The app itself is freely available on Google Play, but it is beyond my skills to reverse engineer it...
Does anyone even have an idea _how_ it works?
I am also interested in an answer to this. Just got one ran a few tests, only works inside there app, would like to use it for other tasks as well.
The secret is rather simple: it produces a specific tone that is recognized by the app.
I made a standalone navigation app for Wear OS! Here's the link to the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.onibaku.standalonewearmap
Here's the full description on the app so you can get a glance at the features:
Users can type in a location, or long press on the map to input a destination. They can choose to travel via walking, cycling or car.
The app will navigate the user from their current location to the destination using turn-by-turn navigation. Each step is highlighted on the path, with text to show you what action to take, and how long until you reach that step. The map rotates along with the device, so will follow the forward-facing direction of the watch.
The app only needs an internet connection for the initial retrieval of the directions. After that, it solely relies on GPS until the user arrives at the destination.
This (obviously) only works on watches that have GPS.
If you have any suggestions at all, I'd love to know them.
The next feature I plan to implement is importing a GPX file in from Google Drive, so you can navigate a more unorthodox/scenic route, which would suits cyclists. I initially developed this for when I go cycling, as we don't usually want to take the fastest route somewhere.
Let me know if there any burning features that are needed in this, and I'll do my best to deliver. This is a small side-project, so I don't have too much time to work on it, but I find it quite useful personally, and I hope others will, too.
Someone suggested I release a demo version so people can try it and see if they wish to buy it. I have released one here
It only has the dropped pin functionality, and only allows walking as a navigation mode. The zoom is also locked.

This is looking really good. I want true standalone navigation on my Huawei Watch 2 4G. It has a sim so loads the route standalone and seems to be able to do everything expected...i'm trying the demo version now.
One question though...unless i'm missing something..how do you exit the app? I'm currently having to force close it.
(And as a side note have you checked out the Wear OS app Ghostracer? You can import a gpx file and follow your progress on a map on the watch. Maps are downloadable to the watch, although ive never tried that. My watch has a sim so updates the map as im riding using the watches data. Heavy on the battery though.)

I had not realised that the app does not cease to use GPS whilst it is in sleep mode, so I have added a button to exit the app properly when you drag down. I've just released it now.
I have had a look at it, but it doesn't seem to work unless you have an android phone. I am currently looking into offline maps and importing GPX files. Do you know if it does that via the android app, and how it imports it? I was looking to use Google drive, as that seems to be the only viable storage solution supported on Wear atm.

Thankyou for the exit button, works great. Having tested the demo app i'm happy, and I will purchase. One further comment, the battery drain is heavy, as expected. Any chance of an ambient mode while the map is running to save battery? I may be pushing my luck, but I can only ask!
Ghostracer does indeed need a companion Android app on the phone. The gpx file is loaded into the app on the phone (using a file manager) then passed to the Ghostracer app on the watch. Maps are treated the same, but I just use the data from my sim in the watch to load maps as I ride when needed. You can follow a gpx route standalone on the watch in a similar way to following the route on your app. I am not connected to Ghostracer in any way, I just think its a wonderful app for cyclists and runners (within the watches battery limitations). And the free version allows you to test all its features. It might not be right for you, but it was worth a mention based on what you said earlier. (And the map screen has an ambient mode.... )

Great . I did play around with the ambient mode, but it was just the same as the standard google maps ambient mode. It takes away the turn-by-turn, location, and path. If I could persist these, and set the GPS to update every 30 secs - 1 minute, I'd probably keep it, but I'm not sure how. I'd like to stick in options to set the GPS update frequency, or have the screen turn back on only for upcoming turns.
That's really cool! That's essentially what I would have liked on my watch but standalone. I really don't like the idea that you HAVE to use a companion app, especially when it's not available for iOS. I know they're competing watches, but I love the price point of android watches compared to Apple's, and their features shouldn't pale in comparison by way of hardware.
How does their ambient map work, if you don't mind me asking? I'd like to look into it. What does their paid version allow you to do? I only had a paid version before someone mentioned to put the free one on, just to give people a flavour of it. I tried to emphasise the main bit, which was the turn-by-turn navigation. The search and other transportation modes were secondary.
Cheers for the feedback and suggestions, though! I really do appreciate it! Let me know if there's anything else you'd like.

Ghostracers ambient map is black background with white markings until you lift your wrist...but that might not work when using your app while driving (watch off the wrist?).
I've now purchased your app (Google made that hard work!)...all still good. One question...when I zoom the map in the map un-zooms straight back. Any way to make the zoom stick?

Do the markings include the path/trail? I've used the black background one before, and the building outlines are (kinda) white. Yeah, I do have my watch affixed to my handlebars on my bicycle.
Great - Thanks! It's much appreciated! How come it was hard work, if you don't mind me asking? Ah, yep. That was one of the first things I forgot to change! I completely forgot about it! I've made it so that if you zoom/pan, it'll stick unless you press the "my location" button again.
Huawei watch 2 built-in GPS not working anymore

Hi ruggs1234, it was a long time since you wrote your experience with this app. I downloaded the demo today and I tested it. Looks like since last Google's update, the huawei watch 2 doesn't use its built-in standalone GPS. Please, would you mind to check whether you are having this problem now? The only way I got it work was by connecting the watch to a phone through Bluetooth.
Kind regards, Angel

Hello Angel,
The app still works ok on my watch, I tested it yesterday.
With my phone switched OFF I use my watches inbuilt sim to start the route (the app needs data to download the initial route, it can use the connected mobile but mine was switched off). I then switch off the sim in my watch and follow the route using only the gps in the watch. The app worked as it always has.
HOWEVER, my watch isn't running the latest version of Wear OS (it's running Wear OS 2.0, Home app 2.16). I never update anything Google if i'm not forced too, their updates often break more things than they fix. Everything I use on the watch works great and i'd like it to stay that way....
Hi,
well, I gave it a test (full paid version) - TicWatch 3 Pro 4g/LTE (all up to date). It doesn't work. All tested in standalone mode (no phone involved).
- app crashes when there is no GPS fix (GPS is on, but no fix yet)
- when I set an route to navigate (pin or search) it just endlessly shows progress circle and nothing else happens (GPS on with fix, LTE on and working)
So...
BR, Doman.
I installed the Demo version on my ticwatch 3 pro gps (updated everything to current versions and no modifications (yet))
App is starting, map is not showing, just the gps location button on the left and a white/grey screen. I can pin a location on the white screen and its actually getting a location next to me and tries to route there - but without any map showing.
Any app for Gear S3 ?
