Google Adsense application for WM6 ? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi,
Is there anyway we can have the small today screen plug in which could display the Google Adsense earnings ?
I guess, many of us are having Adsense accounts and they would definitely be eager to know the real time earnings
Thanks in advance.

i think it will be hard as adsense use https:\\

Don't get me wrong, I'm part of this AdSense-Program for myself-but I don't get why u'r too lazy to fire up your mobile browser?
I'm too.
I think it would be possible if you had some kind of Gateway towards it.
As I'm a PHP programmer, I'd suggest you to let some Script fetch the values.
This could then be published via RSS f.e. ...

very nice idea !
i will find that tool very usefull !

Is it feasible to develop adsense application in J2ME ?
Well...nice to see that some of us are really interested in such adsense application.
Idea is its really unnecessary to launch the browser each and everytime we want to check the adsense earnings (and particularly for people like me who check earnings 30 times a day )
Rather, if we can come up with today screen plugin, it can display summary of current earnings all the time without much pain just like battery status application shows current remaining battery life.
Well..I am an experienced J2EE programmer and I can learn J2ME just to develop this application, if anyone who is expert in WM6 programming can confirm that this is the right way.
Looking forward for suggestions..

Phone usage monitor

Im looking for a usage monitor which basically will predict my bill for the coming month. It needs to monitor gprs (like spb does) phone calls and text messages.
I have googled for this program, but with no luck.Therefore, im looking to develop it myself, probably using C# with visual studio 2005. I m downloading the trial, but as a user with no experience im going to be using msdn a lot while developing. Does anyone have any good guides for c#? because all the google results are either rubbish or expensive.
And, would it be better to program in a different language? [Ive looked at C++, but seems too complicated with no experience]
Also, what are some of the popular apps written here on xda-devs written in? [eg melody, slide to unlock, oto, schaps' programs etc]
Any if anyone knows of a product like this that already exists, please tell me, and save me some work.
And, does anyone know a way to get msdn premium subscription on its own or cheaply? As i think its a great resource just waiting to be tapped.
Thanks to you all here in the great developers forum, I just want to be considered on of you greats some time

Job offer ......of sorts!

Hey guys I hope you dont have any objections to this, if it is against any policies you have just let me know.
Ok the meat is, I am forming a very early stage start up.
I am UK based with (sadly!) no language skills so youll have to be English speaking.
I am seeking a developer to help me put together a prototype software suite.
I do not know this platform AT ALL, so youll have to know how to acces databases via vpn.( may need knowledge of the server side too) youll also have to understand the operations of the bluetooth stack with regards to sending print files.
And lastly you will need to be able to implement and debug a visual input sytem.
Its actually quite basic stuff, but I have no time to learn it as my bank wants to see a prototype ASAP.
Again I apologise if this is against your policy, but I need to get the ball rolling.
To clarify, as I am currently in patenting process I cant discuss much yet, but this can go two ways;
1: If you have the skills I need and spare time we agree on a price and timescale, I pay you for your work, then you walk away.
2: We discuss the project, you come on board with skills provided in return for a percentage of company.
This could be a great oppurtunity either way.
Thanks for listening.
I would prefer an email at [email protected]
What will it take?
I was disappointed to see no responses but oh hey!
SO? what am I doing wrong? what would it take to get some development skills in my pocket?
I would offer a go on the missus but shes not speaking to me right now for ignoring her.
Any advice pos' or negative would be cool.
Cheers guys.
If I were you I'd scan the Development forum and look at our community developers to see what they have done. Some of the more popular and highly respected are
A_C for S2U2 and S2V
Tene for PocketCM and PCM Keyboard
Thundershadow14 for PocketMelody and PictureFlow
DotFred for TaskManager and PPCPIMBackup
Vijay555 for (too much to name)
Slither2006 for SCLPC++
Grumps for iPhone App
I'm sure I missed out a lot of others with some real quality stuff. But I'm just naming off those who has produced software that I use most frequently and/or always see at the top of the Development forum cause the thread is so active. Sorry if I offended anyone by not naming them.
So check out the guys that I listed above and see if they have exhibit the skills that you need require for your project. Also if you need help with the design-side we also have plenty of good GUI/skinning guys.
Appreciated.
I will go check the area you suggested, so thanks for the heads up.
At the moment I am just interested in a rough and ready usable system to show the bank, but Ill definately remember your offer if they like what they see.
Again, thanks bud. And wish me luck.
PS If I wanted to learn the coding myself, do you think it would be completely improbable to do so myself in say 4 weeks?
(I am a mechanical engineering student so not completely dense but pretty busy).
And where would be a good place to start?
Thanks in advance.
You have to find a C++ book and get comfy with that. Then you'd have to look at the Windows Mobile SDK and combine the knowledge of both. Plus its trial and error because its running on different hardware.
Its a daunting task. It took me a good year fulltime to become a decent website developer. The hard part is thinking like a "programmer". Otherwise it'll look like its an alien language
Good luck with it.
Hey Mate,
I'd love to help although I've never worked in the areas you require. I'd recommend posting a slightly more detailed job requirements criteria so you may attract the right young budding enthusiast.
If you're creating software a bank will wish to use then the security side of the VPN will need to be top notch along with the methods in which the app will access data.
Unfortunately I'm more of a GUI designer and the only databases I access are the MS POOM databases for Outlook.
Good Luck!
Can I add I'd _never_ take someone seriously who's asking to reply to a hotmail.* / gmail.* / yahoo.* etc etc, address.

Erm Ok !!! I dont know what to say to that. That is the account I use most often. I didnt claim to rep IBM! This is a personal project and Im just trying to make contacts.
Regarding an other post above, The VPN is further down the road and not needed yet. Also the software will not be USED by a bank just shown to them as a proof of concept.
At that point I would be able to go beyond an overdraft to an actual business loan and be able to contract a developer.
It is hard for me to Give much detail without an NDA as my idea is not revolutionary but the application is novel.
If I were to discuss openly I would lose the ability to patent down the line.
It is essentially A GUI that I need, and a simple underlying app which will give me the ability to enter a small description in 30 odd fields.
When each field is selected a score of -1 is applied (the field value is initially zero).
At the end of a session, ( there will be an option to open new or close a session) a score is given to each field and depending on score, one of 90 text files (3 per field) is linked to.
A print file containing these 30 text files on one page and a score from 0 to -10 for each field in a table on the other page is then produced.
The database access and VPN would come later on but in the prototype that is all thats needed.
Im sorry thats about all the exp' I can give in open. But if you feel you could help and would like to get involved I could arrange an NDA.
I am currently speaking to a couple of people but there is nothing concrete yet so if at all interested, do get in touch.
Thanks for reading (and please take me seriously whatever my Email.)
solved.
Just in case anyone was interested, I finally found help on a site called Rentacoder so if anyone else is looking for development help, try there.
Cheers.

[X] WApps - A windows mobile "appstore"

I got the idea to make a application finder software for Windows Mobile. Specially designed to HTC Diamond, with many G-apps & games and other nice apps. It's under development now, and i will release one screenshot for you.
This app will not be just an styled IE-frame, like many "appstore" like apps that have been released before.
19. October 2008:
New Screenshot of the start screen.
Development stopped, becouse of the Gecko project.
I think this is a phenominal idea. The idea that went around recently was an internet based solution through ie explorer and it just was not device friendly. To have a device based solution is much more sensable. If you could create a server that developers could upload their most recent programs too that would be the best.
Maybe contact the system admin on this site and see if he will give your program to access the sites FTP server or something. Then a user could use your device based program that would seemlessly connect to the interenet in the back ground, poll the server for software, sort it and place it into a thumb friendly interface on the phone by which it could be sorted into categories of games, utilities, themes, programs etc etc....
Of course the admin would have to create those categories on the site's side and the developers would need to upload their program to the correct one but I think everyone has been in such a need for this that they would be willing to do it without much arm twisting.
Or, you could create device user interface that interacts with Orb.com... But then you would have to get the updates of programs and upload them to ORB for your program to work. But ORB does already have a sorting feature that your user controls on the device could be made to access for sorting etc. It even has a video section that a user could download tutorials of different programs that someone took time to make.
All just ideas. Some you may find good or not. I am excited to see a device based program though. It make user intereaction easier.
Curious G.
yes
Its a good idea, keep working on it
seems to be a nice idea
I like the idea but this really depends on what will be offered / how updated the actual site behind the store application is. Have you had any thoughts on that yet?
i second that.
at this time i browse via opera tho xda to download stuff... but having a app that simplifies things would be even better...
maybe all the downloads here could be managed and put upto "youre" server in an automated way..
I remember seeing this article a few weeks ago about Microsoft creating their own app store.
http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/n.../job-advert-reveals-microsoft-skymarket.phtml
Either way, it's certainly a good idea!!
I forward the notion. An app that has all the apps at hand for easy download by category would kick some serious asss..
If I can help in any way let me know.
Greetings to all.
Love this development. Maybe this progress will open up eyes on new skilful programmers and we will see an increase of good looking apps and games. Not that I don't just love the things going on here at xda. But the more the merrier, right? The only complaint that I might have on this forum is the all the threads with wallpapers and especially the ones with half-naked women...But that's me...
So an app store (or two) is going to make it easier for us to sort out what we are interested in and only that.
If needed count me in I can help develop..
Great idea.
In the spirit of AppToDate, which I found worked very very well. But with YouTube-app like interface, all connected to database were latest apps can get installed.
Great idea!
I'm working to figure out how to connect to MySQL from a windows mobile based device, does anyone here know?
double post****
i think if these two threads could be incorporated
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428480
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433913
that would be a good way to do storage
each developer could use have there own account and then whenever they updated there app they update the wapps link via web or give it like some type of flash capabilities that would be really great
or there could be a generic account that ever one uses to upload too
looks like this is in the works http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436127
maybe some collabo might be nice
Nice project!! GoOd Luck!!
If there was a way to advertise this app when it gets made. the diamond would sell millions
Why not just modify a RSS feed reader?

Maybe Sqlite is more accurate for a mobile device ?
And you just download the sqlite file available on a server, this way requests would be very fast.

Yes, every time you start it will update from the web or you can click on a button to update (or an 'update every x minutes' function
please keep up the hard work!!!!! love to see this appstore happen!

microsoft office access moblie

hi can someone point a place to download microsoft access mobile
thx
Access
If you are talking of the Access Database, then I am afraid you are out of luck, as MS stopped support for Access on the PDA in WM5 (if memory serves me correctly, may have been earlier).
What you will need to do is to go to a 3rd party database that will translate and synch with your existing MS Access databases. Personally I use SprintProDB, but there are many others.
Again, you need to be aware of the synch issues as well as usability, so I would strongly recommend going for the trial and field testing the voracity of each developers claims to functionality and synchronisation. FYI, Sprint Pro is at: http://www.kaione.com/
It's dang expensive but haven't seen many other options. I'm a teacher and just need it to keep grade book primarily. there's a program called Gradebook for oh my - 400$! about same as SprinDB wish they'd be reasonable atleast Someone needs to develop something openSource

Truly, nobody says dang unless they are on US TV! As to the expense, I am pretty sure you will find SprintPro is not that expensive, its only around 30-40 not 400, so suck it up, pay the man for the work done and see if you can set this as a task for your students to complete as a project.
simple spread sheet in excell?
SQL Server CE 3.5 Works well on WM 6 by the way. Its great as a database and also comes with the Desktop like Query Analyzer.

Looking for Developers for Public Online Application Libary

Greetings all,
I'll cut right to the chase. I'm looking for a enthusiastic developer to help me develop an application for a 'iPhone' style app store.
I have some rough ideas on how to go about this, but im not completely in touch with the development of Windows Mobile Based applications.
The application will essentially connect to a hosted website of mine containing free / opensource / demo WM6 applications with the option to download and install to your phone.
I've thought of using a RSS style backbone for the application as i think it would be the easiest way to go about receiving updates from the website with links to .cab 's for download.
I'm aiming for this to be a free hosting service for aspiring developers to get their applications out there and easily accessable for others on their WM6 devices
The only thing i can really offer in return is credit on my application hosting page for the client software, and a agreed percentage of any revenue i may or may not receive in the future.
I am aware of the proposed one by MS but they are asking $99 for devs to post their applications on there, i would like for this to be a free alternative for poor devs.
Sorry for the long post, and any thoughts regarding this will be greatly appreciated! If anyone is further interested, provide your email and i can write up a more detailed explaination with diagrams.
**Edit: I've got a professional web developer who is a friend of mine on the Site side of things
I'll be keen to help out on the Web Side of things. Looks like M$ Apps is gonna be a failure.
Email me: 89jase<at>gmail<dot>com
Hope a few people get on board, sounds like a great idea!
Thanks Jase!
I thought no one here wanted to help. I'll be in touch with some further details.
Though i still need a someone to point me in the right direction with the client side of it. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Stop developing such things, that already exists...
scilor,
Not that im trying to be rude when i say this, but why?
It's something i want to do, you havn't inputed contructively so why bother at all?
Futhermore, i do not know of a solution such as this currently developed. So if this is the case, perhaps you could link me to it? That would be helpful.
