I'm a new believer. I was looking for a great bible app to start studying bible. But there are just tons of bible apps in the play store. I didn't know which one to choose.
So I installed several of them. There is one I came across that really stunned me. The app is called Bible. Its icon is purple. Not girly purple though. It's developed by iDailybread.org. Its easy to use. I don't have to think when I use it. Just...everything is on the table. I look at it and just know how to use.
Being easy to use is just one thing that makes me like it. It's how useful it is that made me stick to it. As a new believer, I didn't know much about how to read the bible, like in what order, like how much I should read in a day, etc.. This app offers a verse for a day and there were a lot of other info on the verse, like a hand-picked image, thoughts and prayer on the verse, a devotional on the verse. All these materials help me go deep into the bible.
There is another section in the app - Devotion, where I could find multiple sources of devotionals. I like devotionals on Our Daily Journey, by pastor Rick Warren, pastor Billy Graham, and on another website which I can't recall now.
Reading plans is also a big feature in that app. I think they have more than 100 reading plans, each on a specific topic. I could go to those plans when I'm in a crisis or when I need to renew myself.
Apart from what I said, does anybody know other Christian materials that could help me with bible study? I'm wondering if there are websites offering Christian videos, audios or bible stories. Also, I'm thinking maybe I can use some bible study tools like commentaries or notes. But have no idea where I could get them. Hope someone could give me a clue.
If you are, like me, a new believer, you may start here. If you are an old believer, I bet you could find something useful too.
Search "Bible Verse" in Google Play and you'll see this app. Hope you all like it.
Search "Bible Verse" in Google Play. The one by iDailybread.org is it!
I could tell it's a good bible app.

That really puzzles me why MS and or HTC already have made a GUI based on flash or similar? It's a good standard.
This could actually be really promising.
Looks COOL, thanks!
Woo hoo..that looks awesome..hope I get chosen to become a beta tester.
I submitted an application as well.

patience is a virtue
Spb has to step its game up! Don't get me wrong it (mobile shell) is a good app. But, you got touchflo (buttonflo in my case), all of the iPhone clones and this app. The winmob launcher market is getting crowded and that is good for us.
The only thing that's nice on the iPhone is the size of it's screen and it's multi-touch screen. IMO the interface is stupid. It's more for the average simple minded person where everything is in big and handicap accessible which in turn is contrasted by the annoying slide to unlock which is a pain in the ass to use.

This was a great article.
I liked your analogies used in the article. I think towards the end you focused less on grammar and more on finishing the article though. The beginning seemed much more paced and detailed.
Great article though.. thanks.
now this looks very very interestin!
Well color me interested. Yep, signed up for the beta like everyone else. This is exactly what the WM platform needs I think to get some broader adoption. As with any good development this looks to make use of what's already out there that works well along with things that people feel are bad or missing from current offerings. Can't wait to see it in action.
This is going to improve and completely change our beloved phoneys..
How about making themes for the cooked roms.. A crazy black and moving flash theme..or how about an Elfie Theme with little elfs running around.
Now - GUI guys, you are getting challenged by this new feature of our world.
This is nice, but I don't get it...
Why reduce the today screen to a single button list? I really enjoy being able to precisely customise what is on my today screen, and being able to have any infos I need/want at a glance.
Something more hybrid could in my opinion be better.

I agree, all this iphone style hype and all you end up with is a less usable phone. Apple have everyone fooled, people really need to slow down and have a look at what is really happening.
I would love to see apple similar interface WITH the tabs at the bottom, as "primary apps" each linked to a full screen (one of them could be the "today" tab that would display the today screen if tapped) where you could add or delete and even modify the icons for any programs you wanted on any screen grouping all the applications requiring internet on one screen for example.... seems like a simple idea but haven't seen anything like it... or am I wrong?
this looks quite promising.. if only there were some video shots of it working..
I can only imagine this will be slow.. if its flash its sure to be..
Also.. why have another app running all the time.. the only way for this to really really be useful is for someone to totally modify a ROM to have this as the default shell (which I imagine would be a lot of work) which would then be quite useful.
The other thing is that the Today screen is one of windows mobiles best features over symbian or the iphone as far as im concerned.. its a brilliant interface for presenting a lot of info neatly..
This does look nice.. but like all the other app launchers i bet i'd give up after a few days and go back to the tried and tested today screen.
It looks like it might be good.
help me please im bored as hell and cant find any cool games. can anyone help me.

This you should ask in a warez forum, not here.
Hey, I thought my piece of useless sarcasm was a pretty strong attempt!
An "I don't know" would have been sufficient.
Also, I will drop the subject now Mr Policeman.
There is no need to ad another post with "I don't know" in it as another attempt at humour.

I can not believe a thread about warez could last so long omg beyond closing a thread imo i think a ban or two for a couple of days would be more like it.
Please do not talk about any warez or stealing software on a developement site. Its so desrespectfull seriously. There are plenty of game sites forums for ppc's. This thread was started in the wrong place and has references to warez!
Im no one here at this site and anyone that would go against a sites specific rules is no one as well. I think you owe some people an apology especially Flar and vijay555 as this is a slap in the face.
Please don't warez Posted By: vijay555 On 20-06-2007 07:29 AM
You may have read that the owner of WebIS posted an open letter to the community not to use warez.
Have a read! I'm quoting and linking to the original.
Piracy is a huge issue for the software industry, but to be quite honest its nowhere near as huge as what the RIAA and MPAA and SBA make...
wow i got one good reply to this post the rest are a bunch of babbling idiots talkin nonsense about warez and drunk people thanks guys.

LOL! Well it could be 'cos you posted in the Hermes Upgrade forum and games aren't really an "upgrade"
As for the warez stuff - as a lot of people here are (in some way or another) spend a long time dreaming/developing/actually making great stuff for PPC's for very little gain - warez that take the small amount of revenue from the genuine developers who work the PPC platform are generally frowned upon.
If you want lots of new stuff in the future, and support and development of the Pocket PC platform then please support the developers and pay for your software - especially as some of the really good stuff is at shareware prices!
Guys, seriously. As many sensible members have written above, this board does not support piracy.
Think about it - a lot of members on this board are developers, coders. Whether they sell or give their work away, the stuff doesn't write itself. I've just spent two weeks, two weeks, trying to draw an ellipse. I see elliptical arcs in my sleep. I think in beziers. When I'm done, you'll steal my code and reward me by making my children go hungry. Thanks in advance! Mi casa su casa. Tell me when your wife's feeling frisky and I'll come and return the favour.
Frankly, I don't care what you do on other sites, just don't bring your bad habits to this forum. We don't serve your kind here.
Requesting warez, and providing warez will get you warned or banned by me, depending on my time of the month. Other mods/admins might react differently. But take a hint from the vast majority of your fellow members: we don't like piracy on this board.

i hope that piracy thing wasnt on me. i said nothing about free games i just wanted some help in my search for some games. and i didnt mean to get everyones panties in a bundle. im somewhat new to the ppc world and was looking for help. so far this forum has been really helpfull with general info and some upgrades. it made my 8125 the coolest thing ever. which is why i now have the hermes and back on the forum. thank you guys for the info. i do some research in other threads.
dont worry about it, just take the time to make sure that you take the time to search before starting a new thread and then take the time to make sure you if you need to open a new thread that you create it in the correct forum. This is not really a general ppc forum but it would have been best to post a thread of this nature in an off topic forum or general forum. Not a device specific, upgrading forum. First off games can be used on many devices running the same platform (os) and are definately not considered an upgrade.
The warez is not on you just take the time to search for topics before creating new threads.

I figured since the last thread on how it was illegal was such a big deal I figured I'd share a tidbit of information for those who don't normally read other tech news or other threads. You could have just left the thread to die like it was going to do instead of having such a huge stick planted so deeply that you felt so entitled to instead of saying nothing or a simple thanks you HAD to comment in such a jerkish manner.
Again you're welcome

WRONG
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-white-house-replies-and-they-agree/
1: not ads
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-white-house-replies-and-they-agree/
2: I don't save history at ALL...don't have cookies enabled AT ALL
3: the stories shown on the side of the forums are updates AS THEY ARE POSTED ON THE PORTAL
4: most people don't pay attention to anything posted on the portal around here and because of that, there are always threads started with links to a story somewhere else that people could have seen the day before here on XDA if they were actually paying attention
5: AGAIN, those are NOT ADS......THOSE ARE STORIES FROM THE XDA PORTAL THAT ARE UPDATED AS THEY ARE POSTED. "geo-based"....lmfaoooo ....I love how many "experts" we have around here
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-white-house-replies-and-they-agree/
6: I'm running an AD BLOCKER and if you actually looked at the screen shot I've posted, you would have realized that.
7: THOSE ARE NOT ADS, THOSE ARE STORIES FROM THE XDA PORTAL AND AD BLOCKERS DO NOT MAKE THEM GO AWAY
8: The funny thing is that MODS are going to see this thread and laugh at everyone here who is trying to attack me for being "wrong". I'm not here to hold hand with morons and tell them they are right. The reason why most of you people think you know more than you do is because you have idiots following you around all day listening to your crap and they don't have the common sense to tell you that you're WRONG.
I don't have a problem with idiots....I just have a problem with idiots having an internet connection.
This thread is no longer worth my time. Have fun trying to convince yourselves that you can find a way to prove my first post wrong.
And just in case you idiots didn't see the link I've posted to the "ad" (I still can't believe you think those are ads) on the portal...here it is again:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/the-white-house-replies-and-they-agree/
This STORY (not an ad) only has 16 comments. WHY? Because people don't even bother checking the portal for news and updates around here. Yet someone can post a link to the same content on a different site and people will go 5 pages deep in a thread around here. It just shows the problem XDA members have with actually using the sources on the site to find the information they need/want.
You people wonder why you have so many problems installing ROMS and finding things on XDA. You don't READ or pay attention to ANYTHING around here and this thread proves it. Go ahead, check my post history all you want. See how many post you find by me trying to get help with something around here. You will find that it hasn't happened much if at all because I actually READ AND PAY ATTENTION. You will also see that I never post anything that has already been posted on the portal because I READ AND PAY ATTENTION.
There's actually no need for this thread. As mentioned its in the portal. Also this law never really affected this device.... So it shouldn't be here anyways... Thread locked
Hello, fellow HP Touchpad Users!
I have created a mini-site that I hope some people will find helpful.
It is a catalog of ROMs for the HP Touchpad, listed by date posted, with small amounts of helpful information about them listed on each post.
The current categories are CM10.1, CM10, CM9, and Ubuntu. I've put 11 roms that I found on the first few pages of the Development forum on the site as examples so people can see how it works.
If you've got a ROM you think should be on the list, go to the "Got a Rom?" tab, and fill out the information. (The more accurate the information, the faster I can approve the new ROM listing.)

I'm also doing my best to make the site easily expandable, so that I may be able to list more than just HP Touchpad ROMs.
If you'd like to see any more features on this list, let me know, and I'll see what I can do. I'll have quite a bit more free time in a month.
http://touchpad.taylorcoffelt.com/
Good idea, and a lot of work. Thanks!
Well done. I like the idea. I just wanted to give a shout out to this ROM(s) that isnt on the list:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2225962
I think its overlooked a lot and I feel its one of the better 4.2.2 ones. I'd input the ROM myself as you suggested but I feel thats something you or the dev needs to do.

Hey, thanks chilcle_11 & jsgraphicart! I'm glad it's helpful to you.
That looks like a great ROM, jsgraphicart! It's just fine if you submit that ROM yourself, and actually I would prefer it if you did, and here's why:
There's a lot of great ROMs on these forums for the Touchpad, and there's a lot of people who have installed them. They know first hand what's broken on the ROMs, and what works, from using them. I'd rather them share what they know, rather than what I think.
When you submit the info about that ROM, I review it before it gets added to the list, so don't worry about messing up. I apologize if the form looks a bit stark and intimidating; I'm working on making it friendlier.
Sent from my cm_tenderloin using xda app-developers app
Thanks to a tip from flintman, I was able to make a few changes to how ROMs are stored, in reference to the software they are based on.
ROMs are now listed by Android version, rather than CM version, as some ROMs are not based on the CM source.
I also made the sorting buttons easier to see and click, and made the submission page friendlier (I hope!).
Thank you to those who have helped by giving ratings, as well as the couple of people who have submitted ROMs.
You must be new around here, or you wouldn't have omitted Shumash's Schizoid CM10 4.1.2 rom. With the exception of JC Sullins' build, it's the most prominent CM10 rom on the forum. Also, you list Liquid Smooth as a 4.2 rom and it is not. It's a 4.1 rom that's been discontinued for at least 3 mos.
If I'm being honest, while I'm sure you have good intentions, IMO this type of thread isn't very useful in the TP forum. There just aren't that many viable roms that are being currently supported, you can easily find all the available ones in the first few threads in the dev section.
As I said, I'm sure your intent is well meant but that's just my opinion.

Amazing, really well made and so helpful. Thanks
Hey guys. I've been a long time lurker at XDA, and since I recently graduated I traded my spare time for beginning my story with App Development. Currently I am learning to code properly and working on first serious app that I could publish, but in the meantime using AppInventor and Andromo just to have the extra motivating push of knowing how it feels to actually create something. Needless to say, that's what I did, and despite the simplicity and amateur-ishness of my first creation, I love how it feels and makes me want to make actually great stuff.
I wanted to find a special place to post said first ever creation and what would it be other than a development board closest to my heart, where I've read countless advice and obtained so many amazing software creations in form of custom ROMs? So I decided this will be it and for this app probably the only place I post this.
I know the app is not actually a fancy utility and that the quality is also far from being up to par (it doesn't crash and uses a tiny amount of resources though!), the app was made with thought of how I like spending time - I wanted a simple and minimalistic (resource-light) radio player with a nice atmosphere that would just seamlessly allow me to choose between music I listen to sleep, to relax/study or if I feel like something more nostalgic like old school Nintendo soundtracks. As a bonus it also includes an Anime radio. I did not want confusion of choosing the right radio stream, I just included carefully picked, one best for each category. And so it is, exactly that and just that, with a pleasant Panda background. Still I would deeply appreciate if you guys could just check it out and give it a try. Just with a thought that it's my first app, with hopes that there will be many actually good ones to come.
I will maintain this app to make sure it works properly just due to its sentimental value, so if you know anyone who would actually enjoy it, please feel free to share.
Thanks for everything guys!
And this is it:

I like it!
I think you can tap into an interesting group of people. If you polish it up a bit and add a few more features and stations, you can have a real serious product here!
Do you have to have licensing for these songs in order to make money off the app?
I would love an exclusive 8bit video game soundtrack. One that would pump you up, whether it be while studying or going for a jog or even just driving around.

Thank you very much for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
As for the radios, most of them are Shoutcast stations used with permission of their creators and the app aggregates those. I would not be unfortunately able to maintain several 24/7 radio streams at a time.
I will actually keep that in mind about the 8bit gaming music, I think that is a great suggestion. I tried to somewhat make that happen with the gaming music radio station included in the app.
In the meantime I tried to follow on the radio idea and sort-of reused it in a more refined and so far thus more successful app aimed at relaxation and meditation:

I just launched it and it got enough active users to get itself in the popular category for meditation music!
Next step, going for writing raw code for the apps, since with my current ones I helped myself with code generators, to start things off. It still takes a lot of time and effort that unfortunately doesn't pay itself off, but I'm doing it as a hobby, since I didn't choose app development as my career. I wish to stick to it to make only better apps, it is very satisfying to me, so maybe I chose a wrong career after all!
Thank you very much, and thanks everyone who checked my apps out! This place has always been one I looked up to for great developer brains and community.

Actually.. I took your request to heart and made such app! It plays all sorts of video game music, with 19 stations just playing different varieties of game soundtracks, it includes oldies and 8bit video game soundtracks too. I just published it:
