Hi everyone. Im one of the developers of SwitchMe, and app that allows multiple secure logins into separate installations of android on a single device. The pr is after the break.
I really need a few people to check into some issues people on the streak have been experiencing. There are some warnings involved:
- testers must perform a full nandroid backup before using the app, it is not our responsibility if you start getting boot loops or whatever
- if you report results or bugs, please use the "Write to us" function in the app whenever possible, and always describe the issue in the header of the logs you send
- if you post here, bes sure to include your device type and rom
- if you have apps installed on sd, be sure to mention that as well
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of an
account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain few apps,
others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data.
Why is this functionality useful?
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Gaming – with multiple installations of Android on a single device, you can now play online MMOs as different characters.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles without games or instant messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
These of course are only suggestions - there are plenty of other uses for the functionality SwitchMe offers.

The Lite version allows the creation of two profiles, enough to test on.

But you make a differentiation between the lite version and the paid version. If you want it really tested out, and what devs usually do, is post a link to download the full version here and not be sending us to the Market to download the same thing all the others have access to

I have a Streak 5 running the DSC ROM, a gingerbread variant and your app immediately says it's not compatible with my device.
The app automatically sent you a log.

UM can't you any feedback if you can't get it to run on our devices... like I said in an earlier post, it won't run on my Streak 5. That's with it running even stock Froyo which I flashed because of my interest in your app. Not will it run on a stock Gingerbread ROM on my Streak 5.
1.2.2 - HOTFIX 2
Reworked widget on qHD+ displays
Fixed widget text on HC and ICS
Fast switch improved on older devices

For a "developer" you sure ain't much at reading your own thread fella.
As I stated in my earlier post, I tried your app with the stock and custom GINGERBREAD ROMs for the Streak, it STILL did not work.

Cool thanks
I need to sort out how I am going to show the results (the request/receive should be done tonight) then it's into beta and I'll try to figure out how to make a cab then get it sent out
Flibb from hexus here, count me in
A quick update
The search page is done (I'm going to add a search field after the first release, want to get a working product out first) and I am sorting out the data at processing it currently (when you click on an item it loads a new page with more info on it then you can open in a mobile bowser or go back to the results)
I'm ALMOST there guys, I have got to sort out the xml still and embed a browser in a new window to show more details on a deal... or I will sort out my own way around it
And another teaser screenshot, I have added support for tags (The search function works great right now, does all the filtering correctly.... BUT I am dealing with the returned XML currently)
Unfortunately you can only use 2 words as anything non alphanumeric is converted to '-' or the API wont recognise it but i'm working around it so you can use as many tags as you want (Just fixed this actually)
So I have the returned data to sort then it should be go I am going to add a 3rd screen where you can get more details on an individual deal (and load in an image of the product)
That is on a 240x400 screen so an Omnia should be fine
If anyone has dealt with DataSets and how to organise it in a ListView please let me know, I'm trying to deal with it right now and it's a PITA as I haven't used it before
If you need webspace; PM me

Just finished off v1.0.1, more some incremental changes than anything else. Thanks for the comments from some of the people that have used it
v1.0.1
Changes:
- Fixed installer (app shows up in programs menu as HotUKDeals (with the icon )
- Warning if you get no results instead of loading a blank page
- Slight redesign of results menu (the description at the bottom only shows when you have selected a deal

Apologies for not keeping this more up to date, some good and bad news...
Good:
I just got back from holiday
I have plenty of ideas for things to try out for improving the application
I won the category I entered for the contest it was for
http://www.hotukdeals.com/rest-api/contest
Bad:
Obviously being on hliday means no development work done since last update.
Resuming studies in the next few weeks for my degree so it will be much more of a side project as I work on my dissertation
I have had very little feedback on it To be honest I want as much critical feedback as possible.
I'll be working on my own web hosting to avoid reliance on Rapidshare also (I want figures for dowloads of each version etc and having this project on multiple forums means keeping track can be very difficult!)
Thanks for this handy little app works great for me running 6.1 21054
htc prophet
Works on HTC Touch HD, wvga, standard WWE 6.1 ROM
Really like this app, was looking for a PS3, think I may have found one for a good price
Bump to the update, I am going to have some time, I plan to add
- Option to go direct to the website via the link in the page (I have figured out what it is)
But I'd like to know if anything needs to be fixed, if there are any negative points please tell me as I will have some time next month to fix them (got sick leave for a number of weeks due to an upcoming operation)
Been trying to download from rapidshare, but will not let me do so unless I join up, as "no more free slots available"!
Any alternatives?

Worked fine for me on 1.0.1 and the .netCF cabs if you try it again as a free user
Now working, it appears rapidshare blocks free users when it is busy.
Thankyou.
WinMo 6.5 on HTC Touch HD.
App works great, nice and fast, love it.
Cosmetic suggestions:
On the 1st page, maybe make the menu options more finger friendly?
On the results page, maybe split the backgound a bit, like with lined results, which highlight when selected.
Also when selected maybe add a lond decription and the small image?
Badly formatted rough mock up:
...and make the whole bottom part a URL link to the deal itself, like the "Go To Deal" button.
I'm on HotUkDeals EVERY DAY. I love a bargain me.
That looks like a decent suggestion, I have a lot on (doing some demo work on the 360 ATM as well as some big side projects) so I'll try and make the changes that I can seeing as it should be a fairly minor thing to do
I'll try the first page suggestions, will need to see what I can do from the button side of things

I m ready for the test...hav been using my tab for more than 6 months now
i was finding this for a long time... just some questions before i begin testing this on my tab.
is it something like two or more accounts in one OS or multiple OS like i gotta keep ICS and stock honeycomb at the same time...is it possible?
on Samsung Galaxy Tab 7500 Indian Version

Its multiple accounts inside one base OS. You can clone your current account, or create fresh installations of the ROM.

Thanks in advance. Good ratings help us invest more time in apps and give other users with similar hardware peace of mind.
Yeah, works like a charm here. Allready purchased the key to support you guys. Had set up one main profile for daily use, one profile for watching movies and one for my mother if she wants to play some games. No problems at all.

How can I test the secure login manager if the lite version does not allow secure login?
ATM you cant, but soon you will. In any case, many people have bought the app and it is them that i am calling on. You dont have to if you dont want to. That is something you will no doubt learn about this forum...
Your original post said:
"The Lite version allows the creation of two profiles, enough to test on."
I assumed that meant I could test the secure login with the lite version. So I downloaded it, installed it, and found out that I couldn't. Thought you might want to know. Sorry for the inconvenience, I will uninstall it now.
The switch screen will be free in the next version, only password protection will be charged for...

What do you think of yesterday's update?
I have SwitchMe installed on my CM7 Nook Color.
I don't use my (main) profile too often, my girlfriend uses her secondary profile nearly daily. Today I tried to switch to my profile, and I got a message saying the app is not compatible with my device.
I can't switch back to my main profile. I rebooted, and still get the same issue.
There is not a password, I'm using the free version. I am unsure if there was a recent update as my girlfriend is the primary user, and I don't see the SwitchMe app in the Android Market for her profile.
Please advise.
You need to update the app. Look here: http://bit.ly/wGHxRt
Sorry about that, your last update seems to have fallen into that dark, hour long space between a new release and the hotfix.

Thank you for the quick reply. I used the unswitchme.zip file referenced in that post, and ran it in recovery. I got worried when I rebooted and was in my secondary profile, with no way to switch back. I installed SwitchMe from the market on that profile, and it detected both profiles as normal.
The only real issue I see now is that SwitchMe is installed in my secondary profile, not my main profile. If I ever decide to stop using SwitchMe, how can I ensure that my main profile is what's kept as the main, as I can't uninstall it from main account?
Thanks again!
Whatever profile you uninstall it in will be your main profile...

So I would actually need to uninstall it again with the zip file, and reinstall it on my main profile to "fix" the issue and return it to normal?
Not trying to be a pain, just want to fully understand the process, as my girlfriend may be getting her own tablet soon, and I won't need to use SwitchMe anymore. I'd just like to make sure I can safely remove it at some point and go back to using my tablet on it's own without the app.
Thanks again for the great app and very helpful information.

This is a WIP so forgive me for doing this in steps instead of all at once, I dislike anything from AT&T and Samsung being loaded on the phone, I am an average user that does not use my phone for business so anything like VPN / Exchange is not needed by me.

We need a verified list like that for Jelly Bean now, and we also need another list for Startup apps and services, that are safe to remove from Startup. Sometimes you don't need to uninstall an app that you occasionally use, but you certainly don't need it running and eating up resources each time the phone boots.
A great post !!
If i can get a few users too verify the list a few times, i'll add the thread as a resource to the "everything" thread.....
this would help out users a lot !!

If you can add them both into this thread, and name it for both, that would be sweet....
The "one stop" for both OS's.......
Or not, your call, but thank you in advance......g
there are alot more apks that can be removed. i posted some in another thread awhile back. post number 7 and 8 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1767113 if you want to add to your list so they can all be in one place. also if you are trying to free up space there are more files that can be removed. in system/media/audio you can delete all extra ringtones,notifications,and alarms. i only have the one i use in each folder and i delete the entire ui folder since i dont like my phone making noise every time i press something. on cm roms there is a video folder in same location that i delete. i have never seen those videos run and are useless. and more i can list later when have time.
Update,
the app is nearly finished and currently in public beta. You may find it here: http://www.windowsphone.com/s?appid=e4a9c785-efde-4794-8663-d562724e4fbd
Hey,
I'm looking for beta testers for yet another 9GAG client for Windows Phone (8+). I know there are already plenty of clients available but none of them satisfy my demanding Actually there's only one client by Rudy Huyn (Market Link) which is quite good but keeps crashing since the last few updates. In addition it's somehow slow - I don't like that. So, I came up with another one
The app is not finished yet and still under development.
What's working?
viewing posts
viewing comments
downloading images, saving theme into the media library
sharing posts
pan and zoom (up to 25x)
rendering of extra large images (greater than 4000x4000)
What's not working (yet)?
videos
gif animations (ironically I included the gif section already )
uploading images
posting comments
all items on the start screen (screenshot 2, bookmarks working since 1.0.0.2)
up/down-voting comments/images
What's missing
license information and credits (guys who made the wallpaper, screenshot 1-6)
search
you tell me
Known bugs (so far)
double tapping a downscaled images which aspect ratio is nearly the same as the device's screen, sometimes doesn't initiate a zoom (like screenshot 11)
when there are too many replies to a comment, the client will not fetch all of them correctly
still some concurrency problems resulting in an app crash
you tell me
I attached some screenshots of the app. If you'd like to help me, just send me a PM with your LIVE e-mail address (the one you are using for the market). At the moment I'm looking for up to 10-15 testers.
I wish I could pay you for your efforts but I can't However, I will offer each beta tester a refund for the in-app purchase to remove ads (~1.5$).
During beta stage there won't be ads and if so, all in-app purchases are free during the app is published within the beta market. There won't be a "stand alone" paid version of this app.
I appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
Yeah, Rudy Huyn app is good, but crashing (mostly on devices with 512MB RAM).
9gag app for devices with less RAM would be good. Lookin forward.

it even crashes on 1gb devices
9GAG+ works perfectly so far, of course only the implemented features. I've used it a few times already and can report no crashes.. and the comment design is awesome
can you add the option to directly hum to the first post of a list, e.g. when I click trending? so far, it looks really good

You mean switching to fullscreen directly instead of showing the list first?
Yep, would be nice I think.. Maybe as an option?

You're very welcome. Just send me a PM with your market e-mail address, so that I can grant you access to the app within the beta market.

Sounds good I'm going to finish the bookmark system this evening (currently I'm stuck at work ;(). Afterwards I will implement the settings page. If you're lucky you can use it tomorrow morning
I think you're doing good job, from screenshot I can see 2 good differences with other's app
1 comment part ,yours is cleaner
2 screenshot 6, I like it! so I can click only the post I want (everything but the stupid duck )
just sent you pm...

Thank you I just sent you a PM with the market link.
I just submitted an update to the market. Bookmarks are working for now Still no settings
Edit.
At the moment there are 3 testers. So, don't hesitate to drop me a few lines
I'm busy right now , can't try the "bookmark" error you described in pm, but I was thinking if you can add "resume last position" for the sections...(like the other app), bye :good:
Bookmarks work fine so far, only removing them from bookmarks is only temporary (reloading the list gets all bookmarks again)

Are you sure on that? Coz actually it isn't possible. The list maps directly to a database. When you remove an item from the list, it's removed from the database automatically. I also cannot reproduce what you are saying. Is anybody else experiencing the same?
edit.
I just pushed another tiny update to the store
1.0.0.3
- submitting crash reports should work now
- added (basic) settings. choose which channel shall be displayed on the hub page and whether to start browsing channels in fullscreen or in "quick browsing mode"
- localization: en, de

I update right now!
the home is better with icons before "bookmark, settings ecc"
Maybe it's normal but when you navigate through the two pages of channels sometimes it makes some lag, but not everytime.
Are you interested about italian translation?

I will definitely think about this feature. At the moment I don't have clue how to implement it without breaking user experience.
The problem is quite simple. The collection of items displayed in a list are fully virtualized. That means items are both loaded and rendered on demand - starting with the most recent post in a channel. It's more or less simple to initialize a channel from a specified point (last position the user left) but at that time I don't know anything about the ancestor items (posts). In the end the list, which is shown to you, will start at the last position you left and you won't be able slide left to view newer posts. The only solution which currently comes to my mind is to load a channel from the beginning and skipping all items until I reach the one you viewed last time. Of course I can do this but it's a damn waste of resources (CPU, memory and traffic).
As said, I will think about this one. But not now

Well, it shouldn't be normal
Just to make sure I get your point. You're talking about the list view and fullscreen view of a channel? The lag occures when you switch between those two views?
An Italian translation would be great but at the moment I need to finish the app first. Afterwards I could provide you with a list of strings
Starting to test it tommorow
ok tried a lot and no more lag , never! I think there was some bloatware running on the phone.
about the "resume last post" I'm not a dev but I understand to fix... I prefer your app over other's becuase it's faster, if I have to choose between "resume" and speed, the second one is better!!!
good job!

As I told you in the Email, great app.
Here are some ideas to make the app better:
1. For the channels icon you can take the latest picture from tha cahnnel (you can make it refresh every time the app starts or sth. like that)
2. Resume from the last picture you saw in the channel. That means when I'm watching a channel and than go back to the menu and watch other channel and wann go back to the previous channel so that I musn't start watching from the latest picture but there will be a pop up window or sth like that so I will be able to choose if I want resume or start new session.
3. When I tap on the picture there is always some free space under tha picture (see in the attachments "screen 1.png"). It looks really crappy so you should remove it.
That's all till now I will tell you when I found sth.
