Hello,
My startup and I have been working on an Open Smart Watch (we call a glorified Lifestyle Notification Center), more details shortly but will work with any Bluetooth Devices (iOS, Android, Windows Phone, iPad, Surface, Raspberry Pi, Laptop, Desktop, etc). It is lightweight, flexible, it is NOT touch-enabled (however this will eventually come but on a different model) and will be using Slap-Bracelet style bands, so we can make 1 size and fits MOST.
Hope that you developers will be interested in making your App's have an option to enable WEDA (Wearable Electronic Device for Applications). You'll have access to the Accelerometer, Barometer (Temp., Air Pressure, Humidity, etc), Vibrator, LED'S, etc. We're even going to offer a HDK (Hardware Development Kit) so you can use our "WiP (WEDA input Port)" to permit the Device to use your own homemade hardware.
Best part of the WEDA? Pre-made Open Source Projects, Controls, and practically only 1-3 Lines of code will be needed to interact (1. Is Bluetooth Active/Device Paired? 2. Send to <option>).
If you're slightly interested and would like to keep updated on the private Mailing List (Photos, Videos, Code Snippets, etc), please let me know or keep an eye on WearingDigital.com.
Thank you,
Lance

[App][Win] Detailed System Information [OLD/UNSUPPORTED!]

Hey guys!
Today I'd like to present to you, my first (ever) WPF application!
It's part of Universal Android Toolkit (See my signature), which is still WIP, but I thought I'd present it to you as a stand-a-lone app.
So don't go thinking weirdly if you see it in Universal Android Toolkit, once I've released the newest version (Which is gonna be friggin' sweet).
Anyways, it does what the thread title says. It gets detailed system information from your device.
This information includes, but is not limited to:
Build ID
ROM Name
Build Codename
Build Version
Device Model Number
Device Board
CPU Type
Manufacturer
Dalvik Heap Size
Default Alarm Tone
Default Ringtone
Carrier
GPRS Class
and
Client Base
Of course this isn't everything, but I'd like to keep some stuff until the release of UAT. Ya know, kinda keeping stuff secret (CaptainSparklez' voice)
Now, before loooking at the screenshots, please bear in mind, that this is literally the first WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) application that I've ever created and released to the public!
So be nice when it comes to the design of things.
I'm a Linux guy, so I kept the close and minimize buttons on the top-left of the screen, where they belong

The source can be found on my GitHub (Although I'll sync it later on, and not at the time of posting this, due to me still needing to add some stuffs, like a title...)
This program is no longer supported by me! Check out Universal Android Toolkit for this kind of thing!

Spoof android.software.leanback feature

Hello,
I'm in the process of developing a single Android application that runs on multiple different types of devices.
From normal smartphone, tablet to Android TV.
The layouts and styling for each tend to look quite different.
To manually test these applications I can resort to using emulators.
A big downside to emulators is that they tend to take up a lot of valuable resources from the development machine.
Therefor I prefer using real devices. (Ideally just 1 device).
I can use my smartphone to test both the normal layout AND
with the help of the smallest width option in the developer settings I can also test the tablet layout.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However there is no such option available to spoof/fake Android TV/Google TV on my test smartphone.
AFAIK Android has a kind of prioritisation which layout it tries to inflate.
When it detects a device that has the android.software.leanback feature it will inflate the TV-layout which typically resides in the `layout-television` folder.
Programmatically I check it as such:
Java:
getPackageManager().hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_LEANBACK));
// PackageManager.FEATURE_LEANBACK == "android.software.leanback"
Reference documentation https://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/pm/PackageManager#FEATURE_LEANBACK
Since this system feature is missing for normal smartphones it will never work.
You can find the supported features with:
Code:
adb shell pm list features
After some digging I found you can add these system features when you have root access.
They are kept in the /system/etc/permissions folder.
So I simply copy-pasted the `tv_core_hardware.xml` from the Android source code after which I briefly saw my phone render my application in Android TV.
Also the hasSystemFeature(PackageManager.FEATURE_LEANBACK) returned true!
Unfortunately the screens goes completely black after a second or two and reboots in panic mode.
TLDR; How can you force Android TV on a rooted smartphone/tablet?
FYI my rooted test device is an OnePlus 6
Thanks in advance.
