It's nothin'... I was just bored and thought I should do this because I got tired of typing out lolcat (No, I didn't spell it wrong...) so I made this, it's simple enough for people who aren't that good with adb. It saves to a file called "logcat.log". Feel free to edit the code as you wish!

Does this count as a 2mb file ECLIPS3?

I have been writing an app with app inventor, for my own use but I think it could be of use to others. It is very simple, you type in a cosmetic or a food ingredient name and it tells you all about it (for example if the ingredient has any negative health effects or contraindications).
Currently the app takes an input and essentially does an IF the user typed in "this text" then show them "this text" but that means a lot of IF THEN commands.
I only ever tried BASIC programming and I see that app inventor seems to have no equivalent to a file or write command whereby I could store the database of ingredients on the sd card and search that for information to display to the user.
As it stands the app is nearly five megabytes in size already due to having to store its data internally within the program, is there a way a newb like me could use app inventor to simply search from and display from a text file?
Dave
why don't you use a database (TinyDB) instead of all those IF.
Try looking at this tutorial
Code:
http://appinventor.googlelabs.com/learn/tutorials/textgroup2/textgroup2.html
Thank you
I looked into tinydb, I understood it had a limited entry limit and didn't see the page you linked to when searching before so will study that as it looks like what I may need.
I have one question though, I am a newb so excuse me if this is obvious.
I am writing the app using the emulator to test it. As I understand it the tinydb database is only accessible by the app that creates it and so my app will need a routine in it where I can manually enter the data, but then surely each time I test run it I shall have to re enter all that data as apparently the emulator would wipe the database on each re run?
If tinydb cannot store data unless entered from within the program accessing it doesn't that also mean that when packaged the database would be empty until someone typed in data which would defeat the object of it being a searchable database of pre stored data?
Dave
EDIT: According to google developers at googles forum "TinyDB is persistent ONLY when you've packaged and downloaded your app.
When you are developing with the phone connected, and you quit the appinventors app -- or disconnect the phone and restart -- the phone treats that as a completely new application. " which means that the only way to get my data into tinydb file is enter it when packaged and on my phone. But then every user who installed it would have an empty database, so seems canonly use those if then statements after all
I've never used app inventor, so I'm not talking from experience here, but couldn't you package an XML file with the data in it? That way, future updates to the data could simply include an enhance XML file.
Like I said - I don't know app inventor. It's just a thought.
Thanks to the replies here, along with some help and examples at the google groups coffee shop forum, I found the information I need that should enable me to set up a custom tinywebdb database and on first run of the app populate this data from there into a local tinydb database for subsequent use
Dave
If you have a link, Dave, then share it. I need some info on the tinydb too.
I'm in the same boat hear, do you happen to still have a link for any info you obtained on this Dave?
This explains everything:

Helping friend with a cheating husband. She wants something that can log URLs visited to see if he's making new webmail accounts. Any suggestions?
I figured a stealthy way to do this would be something like privoxy installed via the commandline and started in an init script. He's already rooted his phone, so that should make things a bit easier.
Basically the requirements are hidden (doesn't show in apps list or drawer), can log URLs, doesn't add significant battery drain. I see a bunch of paid apps (mobispy, etc) but can't verify if they're hidden from android OS. If he can just kill it with a something like ES Task Manager and uninstall it with Settings->Apps, it's probably not sufficient.
NDK
Hi.
You can introduce any cross compiled binary into the android system if the phone is already rooted. You can compile programs via the NDK and put them in /system, androids software center will never now.
It's probably easiest to install a network sniffer like tcpdump or even better tshark from wireshark. Just start it in init.d and let it write the first 1k bytes of every packet (port 80/443) to a capture file hidden in some sub directory. This will most likely drain battery.
As for hiding in the process list, it's probably easier to rename your sniffer to something harmless like 'wpa-agent'.
* BUT *
You basically want to introduce malware on another ones phone. This might be a felony in your country. And it's certainly unethical. In these cases I always suggest talking to the partner instead of spying. If it comes to spying on your partner the trust, which is needed in a relationship, is already severly damaged. And I'm really not sure that looking out for webmail accounts will repair this trust.
So i just finished reading Head first java 2nd edition. and before i move on to android, i would like to make some simple java apps to get some actual experience.
can someone direct me to some exercises/tutorials that actually build an app step by step, with clear documentation? these apps should not heavily use swing/awt .
at the moment i just dived into creating a Cesar cipher APP(only command line), its very painful to just jump into app making straight after reading a book. by painful i mean very slow with lots of googling. so that's why i would like some exercises/tutorials but there are thousands online, very hard to know what good for me without wasting a lot of time.

I want some java exercises/tutorials that do NOT focus heavily on Swing/AWT, with clear directions/documentation.

I saw a thread on this forum with some good links for Java exercises. I haven't had time to really check them out but they seem great.
Here's the link to the thread :

Hello, Xda-members!
I've developed a game for Windows Phone devices: The Walking Cat, a funny logical game, that combines fun, cats and mind games
If you find a bug, please, send me a message about it and describe the bug and actions to reproduce it.
The Walking Cat supports all Windows Phone devices, starting from WP7 and up to WP8.1.
Get it in Windows Phone marketplace: http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=7246c620-f6ee-4a7b-bee8-c9f9f96890d6
Here is the description of my game:
Use your mind to trick Zombiecat and get Captain Puffy to Miss Purr-Purr!
Tired of games, where you need to aim or shoot fast?
Ready for a smart thinking game?
You’ll see the cutest and funniest characters, you’ve ever seen. It’s just so mi-mi-mi!
You’ll go though 230 (!!!) levels!
The rules are simple, but the game is hard.
All you need to know is that Zombiecat moves two cells in a turn, but it is stupid.
Zombiecat always goes straight to you. When he decides where to go – he always prefers to move in the horizontal direction (left or right).
You can use walls, traps, teleports and obstacles to get away from Zombiecat.
If you can’t pass a certain level, don’t be upset – the game has a built-in hint and solution system that would help you.

PS. The game is free, just some Adduplex ads included.
Please read the forum rules, and make it clear that the game is fully playable in trial mode if that is the case.
Advertising paid apps in the forum links is not permitted (it's basically SPAM). Either include a free link to the app or pay XDA to host your ads for you.

PS. Btw, I don't want to advertise on XDA, just want to find some beta-testers before I launch the game. It's hidden from market and can be accessed only using direct link (see post #1).
The Walking Cat updated with Chineese, Vietnamese, Hindi and Arabic languages support!
First I'm sorry for my English's mistakes,I'm brazilian.There are a long time ago that I already knew about xda site but I just joined in it now because I need a lot help into apk development.I develop games in Construct 2(paid) for Android but when I finish my game in the program I get a HTML version of it and sent to Adobe Phonegap because like this I can get a apk without the boring problems of make it in ConcoonJS.My problem is when it get back the apk because the apk comes just like a ''raw'' project.What I want to mean is that the apk by the way doesn't come with a icon/logo(I think that like this it must come without the name of the company for instance too-n other words just a apk with a log ''build app'' and the game).In Unity we can put icon,name of company,compatibity and another things but I prefer to make in Construct my game because Unity is more complex than.SO what I want is a program that can give these informations for my developeds apks.
Thanks A LOT to everybody that answers my question!
Instead of using PhoneGap, try to use Intel XDK and use Crosswalk as the wrapper for the game. Much less issues and you have better control over versions and plugins. Plus, it's free for unlimited apps, unlike phonegap.
