Looking for Custom Quotes Widget - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm looking for a very simple app. It allows me to go in and add quotes, I have an extensive txt file of my favorite quotes. The ones I find inspirational or motivational or thought-provoking etc. I want to populate the widget with that.
Every app I found was populated from other sites based on category, etc.
Anyone know where I can find it?
Alternatively a widget which pulls from a url and displays the returned text (I'm a web developer and haven't learned android dev. yet.)
Cheers

this probably won't meet all your needs but give it a go. http://www.appbrain.com/app/23-000-great-quotes/com.cramzy.quotes

I love your APPS however I cannot modify it.

There is no way right now to delete all quotes.
and we wont add that in future. as no need of such option.

[new release] go2contact

I'm using claunch and wanted an easy way create a "photo shortcut" to call/text people. I wanted to click on a photo to jump to a contact's summary screen (the list with all the phone numbers, emails etc). Then from the summary screen I can decide which of the contact's numbers to call/text/IM.
This is a command-line utility and is really only useful when combined with "launcher". You create a shortcut in your launcher (perhaps with a photo) and set it up to execute go2contact with the name of the person you want to dial. go2contact then brings up the contact screen of that person.
There's some other great utilities if you want to jump straight to dialing a number or texting someone (VJPhoneTools), but I wanted to hit the contact's summary screen first since many of my contacts have multiple numbers.
This is my first WM5/6 app so if you're inclined to look at the source and comment, please feel free. VC++ 2008 source is in the zip, installer in the cab. Also, I'm using a fairly liberal OS license so you can feel free to use this code for your own projects provided you follow the terms.
From the readme file:
go2contact v 1.0
(c) Copyright 2008 _craig on forum.xda-developers.com
All Rights Reserved
Released under the Eclipse Public License, see license.htm
Download the go2contact .cab file to the WM5/WM6 device and open it using "File Explorer" to install.
Execute go2contact.exe and supply the name of the Pocket Outlook contact you want see the summary screen of as a single command-line parameter. The name should match the "File as" field in the Contact's information.
Example:
go2contact.exe "Doe, John"
Assuming John Doe is filed as "Doe, John"
Note: Executing go2contact.exe from the "File Explorer" will not work because you cannot enter command line arguments using "File Explorer". You will need to create a shortcut or use sort of 3rd party launcher application, such as cLaunch.
WM5/WM6 required.
Please post some screenshots...
Thanks..
I use claunch too.Thank a lot.

This *should* work with any launcher that you can assign shortcuts to.
That being said, some launchers are more configurable than others. Ideally the launcher supports two features:
1. Command line arguments can be specified in the launcher. You need a way to identify the go2contact.exe executable AND the contact name.
2. Icons can be selected separate from the default icon of the application/shortcut. cLaunch even supports bitmaps, which is what I use for photos of contacts (after down-sizing them in photoshop).
If your launcher doesn't support those two items, I suppose you can overcome it by creating .lnk files for each contact. I think you can even assign icons to lnk files. I’d only recommend doing this if you’re feeling adventurous. I haven’t tried this; if anyone does I’m curious how it turns out.
neat

Is there a way to make this work where it pulls up the contact in PocketCM instead of Outlook?
This is a great application.
When the contact details is opened, and i either make a call or send a sms, is it possible for the contact details window to close itself? Because after the call or the sms sending, the details window lingers. i have to manually close it.

Hi.
I was wondering how hard it would be to create a simple application that would connect to a server or website checking for updates. I plan on loading font .apk's on the server or website, and would like a application to periodically check for updates or manually check for updates, be able to preview the font, and then download the .apk if wanted. How hard would it be to create such an application?
Thanks.

Well, this depends on how you approach it, but I think the easiest way to do this would be to create a feed using XML. So if you were doing your font updater, you would load a file like this:
<FontDetails>
<Font name = "Font1" example = "http://www.myfontsite.com/FontExamples/Font1.png" location = ""http://www.myfontsite.com/Fonts/Font1.apk"\>
<Font name = "Font2" example = "http://www.myfontsite.com/FontExamples/Font2.png" location = "http://www.myfontsite.com/Fonts/Font2.apk"\>
</FontDetails>​
The problem with this is that you will have to maintain this XML file, making sure its always up-to-date(Easily manageable with some simple scripts).
If you aren't willing to do this, you could go down the road that is wrongly mislabeled as "The Easy Way" and hard-code the locations of all your APK's and all of your example images, but I would only do this if you were planning on dumping all the APK's and images in the same place(For example, if all your APK's were here: http://www.myfontsite.com/Fonts/). You would request the directory information from the server and parse that into your list of font APK's and correspond them with their example images(probably by naming them the same; i.e. Font1.apk and Font1.png).
If you decide to use the first option, you could do a bunch of cool things with the organization, like break things into categories and apply taggings and it would only require one request to the server per update. If you go with the second method, organization is guaranteed to be a mess if you try anything large scale, and adds a layer of complexity if you try to break things into folders and categories. This would require a ping per folder you have to check, which can have a high complexity factor if you have a lot of folders.
I just want to point out that even though this is directly related to development, this is a type of question that belongs in the General section(Questions ALWAYS belong in General). I'm sure a Mod will come around, scold you, then move the thread.
Anyway, I do hope this helps,
Good luck,
Tyler
Edit: Having a bit of problems getting the XML looking correct. Sorry if it looks ugly :S
Even easier would be to manage the updater as an RSS feed. Then it becomes quite trivial, as there are several examples of RSS readers online already.
Great! Thanks for the reply!
Yeah, the XML approach I think would be the better option as well, just because we could use this thread to hold everything I currently do no have any hosting at this time. Would you be up to making such a application? It seems you have the know abouts to so.... I would be the one to maintain everything and update it. I would monitor this thread and when new ones pop up, I wouldn't mind adding it to in the XML.
Also, how would the RSS feed work?

Wish I could...I've got about 50 projects already on the back-burner and no time to finish them Tell ya what though...I've finished a mini project a couple weeks ago with some buddies at school for my friends website. Its an Open-Source RSS reader that was made to read in the latest articles of his site. With some slight tweaking, I'm sure you(or some other dev) could mod it to work in your favor...Here's the github address:

I don't think this is the latest code, but all the working elements you need are in here.

"Real" 3g on/off switch

Hi all
So I read it's not possible to have a widget that switches with one klick between 3g on and off (GSM only). In the market, there are only shortcuts to be found that lead me directly to that setting. I still have to leave my homescreen and do like 3 more klicks or so to chose and it takes time.
Is there a way to have a one-klick-switch when I'm rooted? If not, is it doable via custom roms? If so, which (good) ones do have it?
It doesn't seem to bother most people here, but on my iphone I had this and it extended my battery life A LOT as I keep 3g switched off for just cheking emails or messaging in whats app.
I use an app called "APNDroid". It changes your APN settings with a simple press.
There should be a Widget named "Power Control" installed that you can use (at least it exists with CM7 on my Optimus One P500)... while adding it you will be asked to chose the functions it's supposed to manage: just turn anything but 2G/3G and voilà: Your own little 2G/3G widget. (and no, it doesn't just take you to the options panel).
Great, that's what I was looking for! Now please tell me there is a free way to do this because of both Apps/Widgets mentioned I can only find paid versions!
I'm new to Android but this is something I'm beginning to hate For many many features that you could enable on a jailbreaked iphone for free you have to pay on android. Because of Cydia was kind of "illegal" ad only some users had it, stuff was mostly free. Here they throw everything in the market and demand money for it.
"Power Control" is free... well, at least it came with CM. If you can't find i I can just upload the APK.

When I click it in the standard android browser, it says "The content is not supported on the phone. No application can be found to open this file". I downloaded it anyway and when i want to open the file it says "Cannot open file"
EDIT: Ok with the XDA app it recognised the apk file and I can open it. BUT, on top it says "News & Weather" and says this is an system application and if I want to replace it. Did you upload the wrong apk?
Whoops, possible... I've had a little trouble figuring out which apk provides the widget. I'll look into it.
and, found it?

[HOWTO] Remove Ads from apk

Hi there, here's a little tweak that I've just figured out and that hopefully some of you might enjoy...
But first off, a disclaimer:
Ads or (upgrade) nag banners 'sometimes' have a justifiable reason of being. Devs might use them to get some extra (very small un fact; most finally give this up in the end) revenue from them. That, in turn, that might allow or encourage them to continue pulishing more free apps for you to enjoy. So use your best judgement here and use these tweaks with discernment...​
Message to moderators: if this goes against xda policy in any way, please let me know and I'll remove all this from here.
OK, now that this is set clear, here's what that is all about:
I'm sure that most of you guys have seen ads (or upgrade) banners in free apps and being an xda member, you probably know a few tricks to get rid of some of them. I mean ads like the ones apps or games that do not really need internet connections can easilly be blocked by using ip-tables rules/firewall/anti-ads apks to completly block their internet (like with Droidwall for example). But what about ads on the apps that DO need internet connection and than cannot be completely blocked? What about the empty screen space left for banners on some others with blocked internet access?
Well, through my readings, I've found that some suggest to hack the apks and to simply decompile them, go in \decompiled_apk\smali\com\google\ folder and delete the "ads" folder altogether. Well, from my experience, this doesn't work very well. In many cases, the modded app will not install and in some other cases, the trick might work for a while and then the ads would eventually come back. That last case just happened to me: a while ago, I've tweaked the DI Radio app like so and things seemed just fine. And today, bam!!: ads banners again. God knows how/why they came back with that "ads" folder deleted, but they did!!
So with a little thinkering and code browsing, I've figured out a very simple way to get this done - here's how:
What you need:
- An apk decompiling/compiling/signing tool(s) of your choice;
- the excellent text editor notepad++ - get it from here
Notes:
- PLEASE, do not fill this thread with questions like: how do I decompile/sign apks? - it's not the place here - thanks!
- And please do not full-quote this long post either
- If you rewrite/repost this somewhere else, please play it fair and give credits/link to this thread.
HOWTO:
1. Pull and decompile your apk;
2. Go in \res\layout folder and select all the xmls files, right-click of the highlighted file and press "open" and they should all open with Notepad++ [just click OK if you get the "confirm 'Open' Action"];
3. Select Search/Find... and enter: "@id/ad" [no quotes ""] and press "Find ALL in All opened Documents" on the search popup dialog box;
4. Now look at the search results and there might be 2 possible (maybe more.. I've tried this on only 2 apks so far...) result types:
--> As a first illustration of this: for the DI radio apk I've mentioned above [I use an older version and not the latest that requires login every time...], you get an xml called "playing.xml" with this at line 6:
Code:
<FrameLayout android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="[COLOR="Red"]@id/ad[/COLOR]_frame" android:layout_width="[COLOR="Red"]320.0dip[/COLOR]" android:layout_height="[COLOR="red"]50.0dip[/COLOR]">
On that line, we can see some size attributes for that banner; just resize them to 0!!;
So all there is to do is to edit it like so:
Code:
<FrameLayout android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@id/ad_frame" android:layout_width="[COLOR="red"]0.0dip[/COLOR]" android:layout_height="[COLOR="red"]0.0dip[/COLOR]">
-->> Second case: for some other apks (like for an older version of a very famous file explorer..), you might get multiple results (many xmls - 6 or 7 of them) all looking like this:
Code:
<com.google.ads.GoogleAdView android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="[COLOR="red"]@id/ad[/COLOR]view" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
So no banner sizes in this case but all there is to do is to delete all those lines completely and then save all the respective xmls. Then,
5. Recompile and sign the apk;
6. Backup [for restoring its data later..] and then uninstall your original apk from your phone (if still there)
7. Install your modded one and enjoy your app without any ads, blank spot or nag screen.
Final notes:
- Now, this doesn't stop the app to get the ads from the internet, but it does give you a simple way to hide them and this also make accidental clicks on them a story of the past...
- This is pure dirty hacking and not a general procedure; there might be different ways to implement ads in apps and ways to hide them; so please try at your own risk and feel free to share your results/tricks with us.
- Thanks to oSandmaNo for reminding me this one important drawback: when you tweak apps like so, you will get an error message when trying to update them on the Playstore. You will have to uninstall them before being able to update. so this mean that make a backup with Titanium Backup (or others) first in order to later restore the app's DATA ONLY. Obviously, the remove ads tweak will then be gone after the update, but since you've done it once, it should be fairly easy to do it once more..
- Read post #3 for a few additional tips.

Move this to android software hacking?
I don't want a Tapatalk sig!
Thanks buddy,
Well after a little more experimenting on this yesterday
[ ...nice way to spend time our last day on Earth... Oh wait! we're still alive; the doomsday that never came...], I realize(like I suspected) that there are many different ads implementation/removal methods and will have to had a few extra tips and tricks here.
I even still have an app that I can't figure out where the ad banner is.
But, if I may just add, the whole point here was to:
1- tell people that notepad++ is excellent tool for multi-open and multiple-files search tool - perfect for xmls...
and 2- make people realize that if ads are displayed on the screen, it is more than likely that there is/are entries about it somewhere in /res/layout/ that can be hacked...
Ok, from phone it's not convenient but here's one or two extra tips:
- search for "<com." and look for results related to google AdView or doubleclick - those can all be voided;
- if you find a line that you know/suspect is a banner, do not completely delete it and just use "<!--" (start - w/o ") and "-->" (end) to void that line;
- if a banner line entry is within a RelativeLayout, it might be preferable to add/change its size to zero with android:layout_width="0.0dip" (same with height) rather than void it;
- if you do the above (0 height/width), and the line has a: android:scaleType=fitXY" entry, delete it from the line. Other wise it might just bypass your change to 0 by 0 size...
- so search for "fitXY" is alao another thing to search for in the goose chase... so is "advert", "banner", "pub", ....
Ok, that's it for now...lack of coffee in the morning makes for messy posts...
So the difference between the results of this procedure and an adblock such as AdAway is? I'm just curious.

Yep, that's the idea!
Why can't I ever come up with those 1-liner answers...?!? :silly:
Baahh! since I've already written an answer in a notepad, I'll paste it here in anyway:
Similarly to anti-virus solution and their virus defintion lists, AdAway is an app that blocks ads through the use of hosts files. It basically downloads and keep updated a list of known ads (and rogue) sites and just blocks any internet connection to them using a local redirection. I've already posted something on all this here.
Btw, I personally do not see the point of using such a specific app just for this as there tons of such lists freely available on the net and I don't think it is that important to update it so frequently... I just update the list once every 3-4 months or so and everything has been fine for me so far...
On the other hand, the object of this thread is to deal with apks' layouts and that means to aim at removing any wasted space that the ads might use OR leave empty if you do block them out. Just look at the 4th screenshot on the OP; it might not be clearly visible because I put some text over it, but you see that black rectangle at the bottom? Well that is what I called an app banner. It's black because I used Droidwall to block internet access to that file explorer, but I believe that it would be the exact same if I would only use either AdAway or just my hosts file. It's the layout design of the apk that still uses that space even though it didn't get any ads from the internet...With my tricks, I (at least the goal is to) regain that important screen real estate no matter what; even without any ad blocking solution... And btw, none of those are perfect either; there will always be one new ad site not listed/included yet...
Like I wrote more than once above, not all apps are coded the same and some other apks do not display anything when they do not get any ads from the net. So these tweaks would not be needed for those.
I feel that what I wrote is a bit confusing, but I hope you get my idea anyway.
Added two more SS as example...
[that freakin app had ads entry in a good dozen different xmls but easy doubleclick ones :victory: ]
Adding
android:visibility="gone"
To any layout block (within < and /> ) having the word "ad" in it should work as well
And right on about notepad++ being great for xmls and I use it along with VTS10 which also previews referenced drawables, strings and public.xml entries in the xml apart from having a complete fuss free environment for reverse engineering apps

You mean searching for the word "ad" or adding that within the layout? Because searding for "ad" when an app 100+ xmls you will get A LOT of results with "android: paddingLeft=...(/right)"...

Oh! good that you mention this - I thought about it earlier today then I forgot about it...
You are right: you'll get that error and have to uninstall before beeing able to update.
This makes sense and even if you could, the update would replace the old version and remove your changes anyway.
So yes, this is an important drawback and I'll update the OP tomorrow.
I often tend to keep old versions unless new ones bring important fixes or options...why update what is not broken? hehe!
But at least, once you've found how the tweak is done for a specific app, it should be quite easy to do it again...
And really, I don't know about you, but I do not use that many such apps that show ads or blank space... Most don't if they do not absolutely require internet connection and if you use Droidwall and/or a hosts file.
But again, good point and thanks.
Sweet. Thanks. Works!

Maybe, but that has nothing to do with xda philosophy where the forum is there to make people learn and try mods on there own.

Madvertise Ads !!!
Awsome tut dude! I've been on it already but now I've encounter some kind of new ad engine called Madvertise!
Can't seem to get rid of it! Do you or anybody aorund know how?
I seemed to have figured out some of its files...
\res\layout\ad_madvertise.xml
\res\values\attrs.xml
\assets\adview.html
\assets\adview.js
Messing around modifying/removing these files makes the APK file unusable!
Ty very much. I had problems with one app for coding. The ad covred the main sting while I was writing and I really could't see anything. But with ur help I can carry on with my work
P.S.: Does the ad eat traffic even when I can't see it? And I'm enclosing that app. Probably, some1 needs it.
thanks OP for great method
Thanks OP for this great method, i was having problems first when compiling but when i downloaded the latest apktool and aapt especially the decompiling was done with any problem. I removed ads from two apps as a piece of cake.

[Q] Is there a better alternative to the app Folder Organizer?

Folder Organizer is kinda old and I am not crazy about the look. Is there anything better that I am missing in the market for a nice way to display open folders on your home screen?
I'm in exactly the same boat. Very infrequent updates and is slow and cumbersome; unfortunately I haven't found anything which can replace it yet. Ideas?
Me too, I'm interested to find a real alternative to Folder Organizer but does not exist.
Now it has a poor maintenance and a null support. Also it hasn't a good icon-packs integration. You can use them only with labels. If you want use them with all shortcuts you need use UniIcon xposed module.
The best alternative to Folder Organizer it would be give regular updates as every good Android app.

Look at Glextor AppManager & Organizer . It allows to organize apps and backups to folders.
