[APP][19-Oct-12]Quarx's CM10 builds Update Notifier! - Defy Themes and Apps

Hey guys,
I made a small app for me which notified me when Quarx released an awesome new CM10 build. It works for me so Im sharing it with the rest of you guys!!
How the app works: (You need to be connected to the internet )
- Run the app and it automatically saves the current state of Quarx's page :http://quarx2k.ru/cm10-2ndboot-nightly-defy(+)/
- Enter the intervals in hours you need the app to check for updates. (I gave option to enter only in hours for now. So if you want to update every 2 days, enter 48 hours and so on)
- press set!
- whenever Quarx makes a teeny-tiny change in that page, and the app has scanned it, it notifies you in the notification bar. Click the notification to open the link
- To stop monitoring, enter "0" in hours.
* fixed force close that occurs when it tries to scan for updates and the data connection is down.
That's All!
Bug Reports are most welcome!
Updated! Please Un-install old version before installing this one! (Uninstall not required if coming from 17th october version)

Sure I will try it during weekend

Ok!! Ill try to do that
Meanwhile I've made a small update to this one. I've removed the service that runs at boot.
Edit:
I can open activities that are in my own app but not from other apps
If anyone can guide me, please help!
Currently the intent I'm using in the notification manager is :
Code:
Intent notifyIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse(source));
where source is the link to Quarx's website.

App isnt notifying updates now since quarx deletes the old zip and then adds new zip. The app checks if the number of zips have increased. I'll figure out an alternate way to check for update
Sent from my MB526 using xda app-developers app
EDIT:
Ok!
Now the smallest change made by Quarx in that page should be enough to register as an update

Ok I fixed another thing!
Before the app waited till screen gets turned on to show you the update. But now, it behaves as a normal notification and rings when screen is off even (Thank you wakelock )

Nice work!

Updated again! This time, you can cancel the monitoring by entering "0" in hours.
Please un-install before installing new version. (Clearing app data is also enough).

Updated again!

No idea how to set up github!
I used AlarmManager for the timer. It gets cleared on reboot so I used a BroadcastReciever which runs on boot and sets the alarm again.

Thanks for feedback!!.
There is a bug however, when the app scans for update and if there is no data connection it force closes
But it still works after that. It keeps scanning at the specified intervals. Only thing is you will a force close message when your data connection goes down during scan
I've already fixed it but I'll upload tomorrow. I'LL try making the app look nicer.
Sent from my MB526 using xda app-developers app

Fixed the Force Close that occurs when there is no data connection
Not going to improve on the looks. This is quite ok

Could you make a version, where you can choose which page to monitor? Im not sure if you know Defy+++'s "Jelly Bean Cannon", but that is a great version based on Quarx's nightlies.
You can find it here on roms.custom-android.de -> Defy -> CM10 -> JellyBeanCannon -> roms
Sry, I'm to new here to be allowed to post links ...

[Q] XDA app crash in 10.1

I received the 10.1 tab from amazon and installed the xda app (free version) from the market. The system is in original retail version, no root, recovery flash whatsoever.
However whenever i click the post from inside XDa app, the app crashes..
I also noticed most of the post here were from "GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App" , wondering is this just an isolated event on my side, or actually premium App works perfectly in 10.1?
thanks in advance for any comments and suggestions.
Not just you. This app seems to crash on every Android device I've ever tried it on.
app crashes 3.0
A lot app crashes, Skype, Gmail even Market
The free app will only work in HC if you stay logged out. The premium app works fine when logged in and is only $0.99. Trying to use the browser on XDA is buggy so it is def worth the dollar.

XDA Premium works fine for me on my Tab 10.1 ... but it would be fantastic to see an updated version for tablets. I'd pay $5 for a native tablet version if it were available.

Both the free and paid for app crashes when i log in. I can browse all I want but <2min after signing in the app crashes. Screwed with it for about 30min trying to write a post before I gave up.
I figured out what is the problem and modified the XDA app, now it is working fine.
The problem is the tablet return getDeviceId() as NULL and the XDA app need this ID as part of password.

(THEME) Themed Android Markets New Version 3.1.3

OK found these new themed Android Markets Version 3.1.3 (newest version)
Didn't make this but though I would post a link! Thanks to who ever did theme these! Well, enjoy!!
http://www.apktop.com/android-market-3-1-3-with-7-themes.html
Current Version:3.1.3
Requires a Rooted Device size:3.2MB V3.1.3 update: Adds +1 For Apps And Games, Pin Number For Purchases, And More! New Android Market / Adds +1 For Apps And Games. Pin Number For Purchases And More! should work for all devices. You do need to enable Unknown Sources in Settings-> Applications.)
There is a brand-new settings menu, as well as click-to-read explanations of app per missions (not developer customizable, unfortunately). There is also a brand-new Market icon to spruce things up. Oh, and did we mention you can now use a custom PIN for purchases on your phone, instead of leaving your Google
Checkout wide open for anyone that picks up your device?
If you have kids, or your phone is stolen, this is one awesome feature to have and really, it makes a lot of sense. You can get the new Market .apk here, root access is not required. but you will need Unknown Sources enabled in the Settings -> Applications menu to install it.

Try using the flashable version. Sometimes there is a problem replacing the market provided with whatever rom you use. I usually have to use that method with my vibrant!

I was able to modify the apk in order to send the "GT-I9300" string, so that I didn't have to modify my build.prop. Those that don't wish to modify build.prop, or can't (because you aren't rooted) can give it a try and see if it does the trick for you.
http://www.mediafire.com/?fp04n29phdzeram
Of course, thanks to the OP, as I wouldn't have known what to modify without the information about the build.prop changes.
For the purpose of disclosure on what was modified, and for those that wish to make the changes manually, you can use apktool to decode the apk, then edit smali/com/vlingo/sdk/internal/deviceinfo/PhoneInfo.smali and modify:
"method public getModel()" and "method public getDeviceID()". Right before the return at the bottom of each function, put: const-string v1, "GT-I9300" (replace v1 with the value the return uses, v0 for getModel, v1 for getDeviceID.

For those who are getting FC after every command turn off the Voice response and try it. Both on my SGSII and my Note it works if Voice response is disabled.

Also, multi select works for me. the first time i did it it gave me an error saying conection timed out then i did a single delete and the others disapeared that i tried before as well. After that i was able to select as many as i wanted to delete at once, i think at one point i had atleast 50 selected and all were removed no problem. It doesnt jump back to the begining of the list when i press back from previewing and application anymore either :laugh::good:

How do you multi-select to remove several unwanted apps at once? I can only delete them 1 by 1 and the annoying thing after you remove an unwanted app it goes back to the top of the list. Thanks.
Edit: Figured it out
When i did it i just held down on the app i wanted to start with then selected others after, its like multi selecting in the gallery. the delete button is the circle with the line through it at the top right.
