Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a powerful app that allows you to monitor your account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.

Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:
Guys, i really need some feedback on how it behaves on smaller screens!
It's a bit hard to test, since most of us don't use prepay...
tested on other device with a small screen(Samsung Galaxy 3) (link in signature)
Getting a blank widget for all 4 sizes
resolution is 240 x 400
I´ll try it and give you feedback. Just cant do it now because I am at work.
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Make sure you include a description!
I have updated the app - please let me know if this fixes your issues!
Hi guys. Any issues to report before we start working on a new build?
i can't see the full sms reply :
in pic #2 it's the full sms reply
Dear god that is a lot of text... but you are showing me the preview window, not the parsing window.
Are you saying that after you click "Yes" in answer to "Is this what you were expecting?" you still cannot see the full reply?
If so, i need a screenshot of the parsing screen please.
Update fixed blank widget but getting another error
Log sent with a brief description!
Ill look into it... damn the wildfire is hard to please!

here's the screenshot of the parsing screen :
i can test it if needed.
Is there any way to decrease the text size?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
Of course. Pay close attention now:
App is now in Top New Paid on the market but so few reviews
Absolutely awesome. One of my fav apps now, thanks a lot!
Come on guys - i would have thought people would be willing to test a totally free and awesome widget!
I have tried on the desire s now as well and it works perfectly (MTS and Beeline).
I'm certain I had seen an app either here or on the Nexus S forum ... went through 16 pages, but couldn't find it
The app I'm looking for is sort of like a notification app. When I receive a call on my phone and my phone is not within sight, a notification is send to all wifi enabled devices on the same network. For example, my phone rings and I get a pop up on my pc or maybe my smartphone notifying me!
Can someone help .... please?
Thank you
Sorry can't help you, but I will watch this thread as that app sounds very interesting
Found it http://code.google.com/p/android-notifier/ in a reply to your question in the Nexus thread
I posted this in Android Q&A and it quickly got lost... so hopefully someone here will know. I asked in Beans' thread as well because that's the ROM I'm using.
Searched google/XDA extensively. Does anyone know the milliseconds used in Android's heartbeat vibration for calls? I want to mimic it for text messages in the AOSP messaging app.
This is what I have so far:
0,225,300,225,1000,225,300,225
It doesn't feel quite right but it's hard to adjust please help if you can! thanks in advance.
I got a vibration tester now but I still can't get it right.

Please note that at this stage we don't officially support custom ROMs with Viber. Running Viber on a custom ROM results in various side effects (sometimes total lack of functionality), but we can't afford to support all custom ROMs out there. We are continuously working to adapt Viber to more and more ROMS, but meanwhile - you might want to contact the ROM developer for further support - they may be able to resolve this issue. In addition, it would be a good idea to test Viber on Stock ROM on that same phone, in order to see if that indeed is the source of the problem.
Aside from that, note that we are considering an option for adjusting Viber's volume in the future (at the moment it utilizes Android's main volume settings). If we have news about this, we'll let you know.

:good: the option would be really appreciated!
Sometimes i have to decrease normal call's volume and increase it to the max with viber.
Separate controls would be useful.
same problem on blackberry curve
Hi
I have the same problem with Viber on a Blackberry Curve
The volume on Viber is much lower that when using as a normal phone
I too would be interested in when viber is going to put in the ability to increase the volume
Thanks

I suggest 2 ideal:
+ Add Send voice message function to viber - by adding "Send voice message" button beside "Send Location" - I think this is really most interesting function.
+ Please increase volume in call, It is really too low. Or Please add In-Call Volume for easy controlling.
Hi @eyestorm -
Thank you for your feedback and ideas!
The first one you mentioned is already in the oven
The second one is something we're trying to look into and improve for next versions. We hope that with newer versions of Viber, you will find the volume increasing. We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.

I have the same problem too with a HTC One X on official stock and on Revolution HD
The volume is much too low, I made a uninstall as there is no way to use it.
Yesterday a friend of mine got a call on his Iphone 4 and the sound was great..
I think Viber does not focus on Android or Windows as the app on my laptop has also a low volume..
I again use Skype and whatsapp on my HTC.4
If Viber wil solve the problem I will be happy to install it again..
Cheers to all, Peter

I dont think I need to report that as my problem is the same with the others, low volume
That is true. However, details (and possibly even logs) from your specific phone and configuration might be unique in order for us to understand the problem.
We are of course investigating the problem at the moment regardless, but we always invite our users to report issues and give the details of their specific phones to our Support Team so we have as much information as possible that might speed up the fixing process.
Note that version 4.0 is just around the corner, so we would appreciate if you could let us know if the problem persists there.

Call volume is still an issue
It's so silent, even if I hit the slider to the max i can't hear anything.
Regular calls are working fine.
