Does anyone know if there's a calculator available on Android that has custom +VAT and -VAT buttons (or progammable custom buttons/macros) which lets you set a custom VAT % rate on these buttons? I use a calculator like this at work and find it really useful.
I've seen a few calculators on the Market but they are all VAT specific and ar not standard calculators.
I realise I can do the calculations manually using percentages etc. but because I do lots of VAT calculations I'd find this function really useful.
Cheers,

Hi everyone!
I use default "Stock" app just for currencies.
To find correct currencies exchanging movements, somebody offered to use the following exchange rates stocks:
EURUSD=X
EURKZT=X
USDKZT=X
RUBKZT=X
So I use it. It is correct enough. But green/red indicators (which show raising or falling of the stock) never change. So after every updating they show 0.00 and always the same colour as I set in the settings.
Maybe, and I hope, it is possible to make the indicators change the colour and points of raising/falling due to changing the exchange rates. It is very useful. Who can advise?
Or other way advise to use other codes of the exchange rates stocks which are able to change the indicators and points.
Thank you.
Apparently I am missing something, my widgets aren't stacking any longer and I am winding up with an extensive list of the same widget (with different sizing options 4x1,4x2, etc) is there an app I can install to counter this?
At first I will say that at first I wanted to do a quick reply, but as the ideas came to my mind i started thinking about full topic xD
The topic was created to give devs ideas for some smaller tweaks/upgrades/features. I made this topic after I saw that the topic where dev asked what do you want for new rom, peoples only idea was "MIUI". I was little bit disappointed by that.
As I have many ideas I will sort them in groups.
General use tweaks and functions:
- A player in lock screen (only visible when playing music)
- Changing songs by long press volume button (Old SE function implemented in very old phones ages ago)
- Auto air plane mode on selected by user hours (I mean turning off gsm/3g at night)
- Turning the led for buttons in pre-defined light conditions. (For example: in direct sunlight the buttons are very visible and i don't think that anyone has got problem in finding them. They are wasting battery at that time and no one can even see them. But at night it might be helpful for some users)
- Motion-blured launcher (and if it is possible - other apps also)
- Any wifi signal tweak is great also
- I use default x10 launcher because I love the music widget and timescape. Rest is only a bonus. I really don't like that we don't have feature that our x8 friends has got by default - up/down gesture that enables app drawer and goes back.
- Equalizer in default music app
- Faster wifi connecting (huh I know that we have a really bad wifi controller but any tweak here would be great)
- Using some other keyboard than default one
- Already updated versions of programs on roms (like latests maps instead of older ones - I know that you want to make your roms ultra light weight but it would save some time for users, and we really don't look so much if the file size of our room is 3 or 4 mb bigger)(of course you should make rom as lightweight as possible )
- Panorama app by default would be ok
- AdBlock (these is also a battery tweak - reduces the number of connections)
- By default power save widget doesn't work, why is it still implemented?
- Making more free ram by disabling setup wizard service (does anyone need it??)
- XDA app should be in ROM by default (with option to remove it of course)
- Increased call volume
- Some audio quality enchantments using headphones
Picture/camera/video related things:
- Improving bitrate/fps of videos and improving pics (but that isn't anything genius I think)
- 16mln colors (but that is also obvious)
- Control of exposure time and ISO [would be soo really great that i would start thinking about donation]
- Something that would look good and be same useful as androids gallery, but would provide normal zoom (I mean full resolution zoom)
- Making photo app start faster
- Auto flash in poor light
- A flash instead of non stop shining (it is also great battery tweak)
- Making RAW (Dreams xD)
- Option to adjust and/or turn off default denoise/sharpen algorithm (sometimes I hate the edges wrrr)
Battery saving:
- As I wrote - turning network at night
- Improving bravia engine to do more - in tv's the back-light is adjusted to the picture it is viewing. If the image that is on our phone is pure black the phone would reduce backlight to minimum. If half of the screen would be gray and the other half also the backlight would be also reduced to minimum but the gray pixels would be shown in the hardware as pure white. For us we would have more battery juice, better blacks and there wouldn't be anything missing from image. It there would be elements that would need 100% white the screen backlight would be also set to 100%. I don't know how hard it is to implement, it could need bootloader unlock but it would be a milestone for our x10, not a simple tweak
- Calibration notification - once 2 months or some pre-defined amount of charging cycles
- Some app that would automatically adjust voltages. It would check every freq with some voltage. If it didn't have restarted it continues making the voltage lower if not it would use higher V
- Enabling lower freq than 128mhz (but not like doomlord's that the voltage was 1000mv and you couldn't change that [Of course it is very good that he proved that it is possible])
- A flash instead of non stop shining (it is also great camera tweak)
- If 3g is enabled in settings, the phone would turn it off if the screen is also off (we don't need 3g when we don't use the phone so lets use edge to save battery and still be able to answer the phone)
- Make media server as individual zip. It uses power (I always have in battery usage that it "ate" about 2% to 5% of battery. Not everybody use it so it might be helpful)
- Adblock - Reduces number of connections (these is also general tweak)
Appearance:
- Making puzzle lock default lock screen
- Making gray battery circle default
- Making colorful/green icons
- Transparent bar of launcher
- Wallpapers specially for our x10 (in few weeks I'll start doing some)
- Replacing the clock on lock screen
- weather on lock screen
Note that Appearance is my own opinion and some people might not like it
I'm not posting some obvious things like bootloader/better multitouch. Every dev knows the basic things to do.
Ok, I think thats enough for now. If you have ANY ideas for our x10 please comment below so I can add them to our list
I know that some of ideas are already implemented in some roms. But they are extremely rare.
If some devs would like to talk about some ideas, they can do that here also.
Too much. Why not DIY? Devs don't have 4 hands and 2 heads.

Yeah, I know that, they don't have to do all of these, they will have ability to choose what is easiest for them.
Whats that i hear you say?
XDA has a search function?
an you found what thread?
THIS one?
Wow thats awesome
Please have a look at my new app Now Cards for Zooper. I've used tsasker integration to make some of the widgets more unique - there's auto updating news widgets (more feeds will be made on request) and one which shows you your latest text message.
They're alongside calendar, weather, clock, etc. widgets. Take a look and make sure you read the description before you download. If you've got any problems, just post and let me know.
EDIT: The free version now contains a facebook widget too! (post 10 for pictures). This will stay as 4x1, but this, alongside a 4x2 and 4x3 will be coming to the paid version in the next few days
Paid version - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.est1994.zwskin.nowcards
Free version - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.est1994.zwskin.nowcards
Very cool idea, few questions.
Is this a "Google Now" replacement?
Its almost identical to "Goolge now" , whats the advantages of using Zooper and Tasker?
Could you add other buttons and functionality to the cards aswell?
- like say the incoming text card, can you add a reply button? that would pop up a reply text box etc?
- Or a card that has the ability to show current sound volumes? or the ability to change them from card?
- If you could add other app info like facebook (probably insane to get configured) it would be an awesome "Launcher" type of app etc.
Are you allowed to post links to paid apps on xda? Cant remember the rules (Current)
other than those, looking great! good luck.
Thanks for the support! Its kind of intended as a Now replacement, I love having Google now built into the Google launcher, but can't deal without any customizations, son its really intended for people with similar ideas.
Using Tasker gives a lot more options in terms of what can be displayed! Many things from the internet and almost any stat from your device can be displayed oince you combine the two - tasked is a lot more powerful than Zooper.
Unfortunately some if what what you're asking is still a little out of range. Things which involve interaction such as volume sliders or a functional reply box are not do-able from my app, however, you could create your own tasked scene and launch it as an OnTap action on the widget. I'd love to bundle this with the app my pself but I've found that Tasked scenes do not translate well across changes in screen size. I could definitely add one for current volumes though if you wanted? And anything else you might like? I will look into Facebook tomorrow, but its late here so I need some sleep!
And I'm not sure about posting paid links, I meant to double check the rules before posting but totally forgot! I didn't hear anything last time I did it though so fingers crossed
EDIT: I couldn't resist having a quick look - Facebook notifications can (and will) be made as a widget, but actual feeds cannot
These look great! But I am unclear as to when these show onscreen...are they always on widgets or just popup when info arrives? Thanks
They are all always on. Everything always has information to display! Are you asking more specifically about the Tasker widgets? If so, tasker collects information every 2 hours by default, with each collection gaining 5-7 stories (depending on provider). Only one story is 'given' to Zooper at a time, with the displayed story changing every 30 minutes.
I hope that answers your question?
I know this may not be exactly what you had in mind, but here's a Facebook widget I knocked up. There's also a 4x2, but that's just a shorter version of the large one. What do you think?

Looks great. Upon pressing it. Takes you right to Facebook?
To me flip book is annoying. But . I'm looking for a "sense" type of home page. You ever seen HTC sense home pages? If you could make the boxes a transparent black etc. Lol I love the Google now aspect, but their new material colors are... Not what I like. Lol but that's a great start. Smaller font perhaps.
Thanks for the feedback I thought about smaller fonts, but I wanted it wall to be readable at a glance and to follow Google as much as possible, but yes, clicking on the FB widget could take you straight to Facebook, but I've left all the shortcuts blank so you can pick where you want it to take you, possibly the notifications page directly?
If you send some HTC sense pics, maybe I'll think about making some wpof their widgets at some point too?
I decided to do a free version of this too - its got all the 4x1 widgets, but with none of the tasker integration or 4x2 widgets, so you can still get a good effect. Follow the link to grab it! Lasker

Here's the new facebook widget, submitted to the free version already and coming to the paid version soon!
As the title says, I'm developing an application that would allow the user to freely control the lights independently. Requires root for now. But I'm looking forward to implement some great features in the app so we can push the feature set the Glyphs would allow.
Nice, I have a few for your consideration if its type your looking for.
Variable brightness if poss to reduce battery consumption, master override kind of idea.
Battery charge indicator, option to have it show until charged instead of the breif timeperiod when plugged in. Easier to glance over and get a rough idea.
Ability to set a certain segment to a specific notification or flash it every x amount for like a missed call, I feel current ones show when initially received then unsure on time frame inbeteen would be cool to put a set amount down, maybe a pulse effect until notification is cleared.
Are they individually addressable? Is so maybe turn the battery bar into a knight rider effect or the main ring light up like a new style car indicator.
Wled has some cool basic patterns and settings if that helps, even for ideas
Good luck
SOS feature would be really nice, SOS in morse code
Ability to have custom glyphs light up when in a call till end of call
I want to show off with my phone so I'd love it to be flashing as I speak(speach visualisation instead of music) so that people could see it
Tasker support would be awesome
Isn't someone already developing one

Indeed, one can find this application which also allows to configure the Gyphs.
@Xellerate,
One more application to allow this kind of customization is not negligible.
@oddlyspaced
I hope this application will be successful and fully effective.
Good luck with it.
