Car Home Project - Galaxy Tab General

I am wondering if anyone can take up this little project.
Basically this is the Car Home from the T-Mobile Vibrant and i am wondering if anyone can play around with it so that A: it can fit on the Galaxy Tab (app does not center properly as you can see from the picture), B: if the Contact icon can be made to work properly (as you can see an error mesage comes up) and C:when selecting the search icon nothing happens(the one on the right hand side of the contact icon)

Bellow please find the link to the app so anyone can play around with it. It is called com.sec.android.app.cradle-1.apk. Hopefully someone can give it a try.

Maybe just not in the 1 day since you posted it.
There's already a few good car home apps that work fine on the tab, which may be partially responsible for peoples reluctance to spend their spare time on this project also.
It's probably just a case of changing the name of the app it's calling, why not take the APK apart and see if you can work it out yourself?

i extracted the apk, but that's as far as i can go. have no idea what to do
this can get the ball rolling
as you can see there are three folders layout, layout-land, and layout-port
i dont know how to mess with xml files or dev in any other way, so someone can take a crack at this.

yea, the default google one is pretty good. i plan to use it in my car w/my tab and the samsung car mount.
on a side note, using the car mount right now just on my glass desk. works pretty dang well too!

That's pretty cool.
Looks like most of the images are intended for a 480x800 display, which is the resolution of the vibrant. You'd probably need to go through and scale a number of the images to fit the higher resolution screen of the tab. (Edit: Looks like the app is intelligent enough to scale this itself)
It's possibly a fair bit of work, but probably not all that hard. You mainly just need to extract it, work out what to edit, make the required changes, remove the META-INF tag and then manually resign and recreate the .apk. Not quite as straightforward as that (you'll need the Android SDK for a start). Might be a good exercise though.
I might have a play just for something to do. Maybe
Edit: Right, as with most things, _way_ more difficult than I estimated. I've decompiled the APK and I'm having a poke around in the sourcecode. I'll see how I go, but it's quite possible that I'll end up giving up and putting it in the "too hard" basket. Disclaimer: I'm completely unfamiliar with this sort of code so I'm having to decipher the syntax as I go. Editing just the graphics is a piece of cake, changing application calls and layout is a different story.

I managed to get most of it sorted. The icons are now centered and the Contacts button works. The search button doesn't even seem to be _trying_ to do anything though, so I'm not sure what it's supposed to achieve. I might just get rid of it, a text-based search in a car dock app seems a bit redundant to me.
I don't get a "Voice Search" icon on mine, I get a "Browser" icon instead, so I'd be interested in seeing what happens on yours.
The .apk is a little larger than the original, probably as it's being compiled against a newer SDK.

I fixed the "Alarm" option not working with the Home dock application as well:

I do have a car home app that came with Roto's JME v4 but i still like the one from the Vibrant.
I am not a programmer so i would not know how to fix it.

Great work on the Car Home, but i was wondering if you could make some changes:
This what it looks like on my Vibrant, any way you can get to look this way?
and in regards to the Desk Home, the Alarm does not work i get an error message:
and one question on the Desk Home, on the weather icon next to the date and time shouldn't it show the current temperature? on both the Vibrant and Tab it just shows 00 C, not that important but it is weird that it does not update after you set the City and change the temperature to F on the Daily briefing icon.
Thank you again for your help.

The apk on your vibrant must be different, the one I'm working on doesn't even have the images for "Phone" or "Music".
As for the alarm, I've no idea, it works fine here. I'm running the JME firmware which may have something to do with things.
The weather displays 00 if it doesn't have a net connection, it works fine as soon as it can access the server, but it looks like you've got data running. Can you put it on Wireless and see if it updates then?

knightnz said:
I don't understand why you're getting different icons than I am. It'd take me a lot of work to decipher it and try to fix things, someone who has a better understanding of smali code would need to have a look at it.

The Car Home from my Vibrant i got it via the market when it was available, the one currently on my tab i got it from the link on my first post so i could not tell you why they are different. Well i gave it a try, i'll keep it the way it is but it looks better than before and at least the contacts work. Thanks.
Regarding the alarm i am lost, i am running Roto's JME v4 so not sure if that has anything to do with it.
In regards to weather on the Desk Home i'll try and get better signal and i'll try wifi connection see if makes a difference and i'll report.

Well it seems that Samsung came out with a Car Home app and you can get it via the Samsung Apps app

For those of us with Verizon GTs, is there any way someone can post the official apks for the Car Home app? While Verizon was adding all of their crap, they removed Samsung apps.

Facebook Integration, what is it, and how to get it back..

Hello everybody,
Recently I went on a hunt to find the missing link in the Facebook integration of our Topaz and Touchflo. As it turns out HTC decided to not enable it in the Topaz versions.
So what is it? What does it do? Well it takes the contacts stored on your phone, and links it to the contacts in your Facebook Profile. And what it does from there is give you their profile photos for your contacts, their birthdays, events, and a link to your own Facebook profile, with icons for new messages, pokes, notifications, etc.
Heres a few screenshots.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now as far as how to get it running,
Personally I used XBMOD fix first and then used Bbonzz fix and it works. But I reccomend to try bbonzz's fix first as it should be the only one needed to make it work, otherwise I re-uploaded both here.
Credits go to XBMod for the VGA ports, and fixes (which sometimes work for us too. )
and to bbonzz who managed to get a fully working, installable fix for it.
Let us know what your experiences are, what works, and what doesn't. Enjoy!
Yup works, cheers
Tried the 2nd CAB first and seemed to work, get the tab but I'm not seeing any updates. Profile pics work ok tho, just don't get any updates.

just seen one status update for one contact! wondering if only new updates appear after install? To be honest, wish I hadn't installed it.... it's a bit of fluff really! Not of any real use! Can I uninstall?
[EDIT]You can uninstall.... just use the normal method.[Edit]
Wow, I've been wanting this since I found out it didn't come with the phone.
If they enable the social features on the TP2 and not the TD2 that's odd. I gigure TD2 is the social phone and TP2 the business one.
Thanks!

THanks for this. I'm pretty impressed with it. It maybe a gimmick but i'm pretty happy with it.
It good to be able to link your facebook friends with your contacts and get the profile pictures...
Seems to get a little confused sometimes though...
Nice find
I've installed this but when I try to login it says login failed? Does the thing not automatically connect to the net? (I do have data connection turned off in comm manager maybe thats the reason)
EDIT: Ok got it working after turning on my data connections... it's found pictures for 2 or 3 of my contacts but for the rest it can't seem to download the pics... anyone else getting this?
Yes, I believe that you need the data connection on for it to work. I don't know why.
Status updates? really? it does those too? which screen? I have been using it to just link to profiles and get the photos.
Off subject, I can't wait for 6.5 on our TD2's with marketplace.
Edit:, oddly enough i do see statuses on contacts... but ONLY if i use the (insert real name here) letter scrolling on the contacts. And it seems very very buggy.
I hope that a DEV or even the release of the rhodium can fix this.

Yes, I have the same experience. Bizarre. I got updates on another page somewhere once. Buggy, but nice to extract the pictures. But I do wonder if it uses data everytime you open up All Contacts. Not so good for those with a limited data plan...
Tried both cab files but the facebook tab doesn't come up for me, any help?

I'd be interested to know if it connects everytime you access contacts too. I only have a limited data plan and only really want it to update from facebook when I'm connected to WiFi
It shouldn't do it only does that when you hit update afaik.
Okay so I got all the statuses and whatnot working on a Rhodium rom on the Raphael, but I can't get any of the pictures to link up. Anyone else have the same problem, and possibly found a fix for it?
Edit: Scratch that, spoke too soon, just took a while to link I guess, but I'm only getting it for one contact?
A specific Facebook application for Windows Mobile was launched todayish. OK, so it's not integrated to TouchFlo3D, but it is pretty good and offers a lot of functionality.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/facebook.mspx
I'm trying out this new WM Facebook one you linked but seems to be really slow and hangs on me any idea why?? doesn't require a soft reset after install does it?
Having similar issues. I think the Facebook integration is fantastic and for the most part works pretty well...it's just that about 2/3'rds of my contacts don't have photos being imported. Wonder if there are any logs...? It seems to say "updating" for a contact and then time-out? Could be connection issues or maybe a friends photo is too large/not the correct format?
The WM Facebook app works fine for me, but then I'm not a 'friend junkie', so I only have about 20 friends. Maybe it struggles if you have hundreds of friends. Maybe it's time to cull all those friends that aren't really your friends, just people you once knew 20 years ago!

*Edited* NeoBuddy's ICS v7 Is open again and this thread is now closed !

TO All NeoBuddy was able to make amends to the dev he offended and I want to thank Jrummy for his stand up attitude and assistance in resolving this issue.
Listen carefully now, no more trolling or flaming will be tolerated, if we see this going on in the any of neobuddy's threads they will be closed. ***Heed this warning***
Move forward and enjoy your ICS as I do.......***The Moderator***
Just in case anyone was wondering, I believe the thread was deleted by a moderator because it contained pirated apps.
anyways, it was deleted while i was replying to some of the comments in the thread, good thing i ctrl+c'd my reply before i hit 'submit'. I'm sure we aren't allowed to link to the rom any more, but we can still discuss it and any issues with it.

Ok, so I added .nomedia to my clockwordmod folder and titanium backup folder in the root of the SD card. The media scanner quit eating battery after that. Results may vary... (i have not done the init.d mod, wondering if I should)
So far no big hiccups, I'm really digging v7. Great work.
Problems:
GPS when turned off doesnt appear to be to happy trying to turn back on without a restart.
Cant find/mount my external microSD card (doesnt show up under external_sd or sd)
Samsung official car dock will not keep the display on (but whats cool is in the desktop dock i now have a neat clock with the display staying on)
In car mode the phone goes to side orientation, but the actual call (when your in a call) does not switch to side orientation.
Can't edit the display settings for the home screen (icons, and "dock options) they just activate and never go to a menu.

I KNOW I saw a TV out option somewhere..... /sigh

how'd you do it? i did a "batch restore" and it seemed like it worked, but none of the apps show up in the app tray.... but titanum shows that the apps are "restored".... also i'm trying to restore the "data" for a couple games as well, so it has my scores and stuff that i've unlocked...

hey guys, just curious what is the notification toggle app used for? i've never used it.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it lets you put shortcuts in the notification pull-down bar, for example, the most useful in my case would be the "USB tethering" page, so when i click it, i can choose to tether via wifi or usb, simply by pulling down the notification bar. the "icons" are completely black so it doesn't get in the way.... also the actual button you press on is extremely dark so it's barely noticeable, but just noticeable enough that you'll see it when you need to click it.
my question is, it might be a simple question, but in settings > more > what's the "WiFi direct" button do? and how come the apps that i attempt to restore with titanum backup aren't showing up at all? are they even being sucessfully restored?
also some goods tips would be in Rom Toolbox, go to the Performance tab and click on build.prop Tweaks and change the Wifi scan interval rate to 180 from 90.
also in Settings go into Developer Settings and turn on the Force GPU rendering and also in that screen, also change the HDCP checking to "never use HDCP checking"
I knew that would happen eventually when I saw things like root explorer in some of his roms. Bummer, I like his work.

yeah, but all he has to do is remove those apps, and simply reupload.... well since he had an ongoing dispute between the mods, it might not be possible to repost on xda, but there's always gonna be http://rootzwiki.com/forum/71-vibrant/
Looks like his backup, rootzwiki post was taken off too...
oh, and for reference, for people who have lag on their v7 roms, here's what neobuddy posted to fix it (again):
I suggest you need to flash fresh after doing these steps:
1. Open zip file on your PC.
2. Delete /system/etc/init.d
3. Place THIS file in system/bin
4. Flash it. Enjoy no lag but less quadrant.
Click to expand...

you would "right click" that link, and save it to your desktop and remember to DELETE THE EXTENSION (the .txt), so you would have to "view extensions for known file types" in your windows explorer to be able to erase that part.
For titanuim backup i restored by doing a batch but having the apps ask to install one by one. Takes time but thats what brought them back with their data no system apps.
Didnt know what happened thanks for the clarification on the removal.
Hope things get straighten out.
Still on the hunt for the hd playback issue anyone got some ideas.
Choppy vid playback
yup, its not in the rootzwiki vibrant developer forum
hope he can repost soon or get another forum up and going. Just got home and was looking forward to reading the thread more... Good luck nb

XDA got topic removed due to no Source Code posted and Hacked Apps included.
I agree its my mistake to include hacked apps (which I won't include in next versions)
RootzWiki removed due to such apps used without consent of main app developer. Yes, the app code was from other app.
There are many topics in the Developer Section which contain such apps without consent of Developer. However, they were never reported..
I will be cleaning these apps and make new Topic at other Forums after having talk with Nelson.
I have PMed moderator at RootzWiki to clean the links and restore the topic but I am not sure if they would.

Sprint's new emergency alert system on any 4.1 NS4G roms

I was playing around with some different aosp roms the other day and I thought since the new emergency alert system Sprint was so kind to give us in the 4.1.1 ota update is such a great new feature to have maybe I should try to get it to work on a rom other than the OTA. Well, it turns out it 'just works' by default!! The app will not install the traditional way, but if you copy it to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- it works! The menu shows up in system settings>wireless & networks more> cell broadcasts

For those wondering what it is, because I had no clue about this:

FEMA wow, no way is this coming near my phone, eff that
YAY! Now I can be informed via Klaxon that rain sometimes causes flash floods. If you use this, keep your phone on mute or people in theaters and conference rooms will hate you. Personal embarrassing experience talking here.
I would be okay with it if you could shut off the alarm. Trust me, it's nothing like any other notifications else that exist on your phone. I want to know about Amber Alerts, and very severe weather events, but this appears to be all or nothing. Imagine the chaos if everyone had this on their phones and they all went off at once, which I assume must be the intent. Talk about shouting fire in a crowded theater. Not well thought out, but neither is FEMA.
for the record this was on an epic 4g touch, i assume the same behavior on anything else unless the federal govt is building device specific apps

did you not see the screenshots I posted?? There are toggles for different types of alerts. And you can turn notifications off, as well as test notifications. Also, if you don't like your alarm notification, just change it. We live in a world where rooted phones are possible and you can do these things It's as easy as swapping ogg files!
no, actually i did not, thank you for calling my attention to them. apparently pictures get cut out when i access xda from behind a firewall, literally looks like there's nothing there on pc, but tapatalk on my ns4g has them. Maybe they are getting it right, I will have to take another look at it. When I found it on my nonrooted e4gt, it looked nothing like this.

Did you copy it to /system/apps with a file browser or did you try installing it the normal way?

Yep I'm using rasbeanjelly and fixed permissions in cwm and still nothing. Installing the normal way won't let you. Did you try on this ROM?

Great rom.
I tried playing around with it and for some reason it wont work.
Idk i really want to have this feature but for some reason i cant figure it out.
Lets just review.
I move the apk to /system/apps.
Then fix permissions to rw--r--r.
Reboot
Fix permissions in cwm.
Reboot check settings?
Is there something im missing?
Try accessing it from Messaging app. Hit settings.
If I can find some time this afternoon I will flash RBJ and see if I can figure out what's up
I will also look into it also but not for myself, lol. I hate the alerts.
This works on today's port off rasbeanjelly for ns4g by rustyjay. I used root explorer to move the apk to system/app, changed permissions to rw-r--r--, and rebooted. No need to go to cwm.

Wow thanks for the responses and help just for this.
Today's rasbean? There's a new one!!!!! I'm going to check and flash then follow the steps again.

Awesome, thanks for this!
It shows the settings in messaging but doesn't show in wireless network settings where I can pick the different alerts.

a download link - [URL="http://www.droidbin.com/p19umpuc1u46e155eur2frhijv3[/URL].
or just scan the QR Code in the image.
Bugfixes/crashes/new ideas/etc.. are welcome !
Thanks for the app. Its working great
Can you integrate the ability to download songs from Trackid too. That would be an icing to the cake
i'll do that someday also soundhound is on the checklist
download it again, its updated with maannnyy bug fixes, also supports youtube .
Not working....
"Unfortunatally, A Shazam Downloader has stopped."
It says it takes too long to find the mp3, then it crashes.

actually i forgot to mention, you can do "search in youtube" in trackID and then share the song from youtube to A Shazam Downloader
Just to clear things up here for everyone, I figured I'd give this app a try on my Galaxy Note 3 running the OEM Stock Android 4.3 Verizon ROM and I haven't had any of the issues that ya'll are having. It's worked perfectly for me from the very first time I tried to download anything from Shazam. I was actually very surprised at how quickly it started to download each song...it was almost like I could press the "Share to ____" button within Shazam, the downloader app would kick in, then almost immediately I would have the little "Downloading to..." notification pop up in my status bar. I'd then pull the status bar down to check it and the download would already be finished, or 1 or 2 seconds away from being completed. I've been very satisfied with this app so far, minus the ads on each side of the "change download folder" button in the app. So, to clear up the fact that you guys think this app is just for android 4.2 and older roms, that's a very wrong assumption, as my android 4.3 Note 3 has done very well with this guy's app so far. Actually, there wasn't one single song that failed to initiate to download....I'm batting 100% so far with this app...I think I've tried like...9 songs so far and ALL 9 searched/initiated FAST and downloaded FAST. Thanks for this!
--my only gripe is your decision to place an ad on each side of the "change download location" button...it's VERY frustrating when I'm half awake and trying to press the button and then I miss-press and click the ad 2 or 3 times in a row. Move the ad(s) to the bottom of the screen or somethin...please? lol Aside from the advertisements aggravation, this app is fantastic! Thanks! :good::good::good:

Thanks for the good words !
the main idea was instant download, without thinking too much..
about the ads, your'e right.. pretty annoying.. i'll change their position next update
since the app is not on google play (i dont want to be banned from there lol), to update you need to download from the link again.
Awesome app man I love it keep it up

Does it support sound cloud download?
I am somewhat confused as to what your link actually does? I can't get it to do anything. When I click on the how to use, I get the pop up window that says to share it to a shazam downloader. And then it does nothing.

I've tested this on a nexus 4 running 4.4.2 and a Galaxy s 3 running 4.3 both hang and eventually time out.
I hope this is fixed, I really like the idea of this app.

"download songs directly from shazam"
I understand its use from inside the Shazam app, but does this actually download the song from the Shazam website/storage or does your app search the internet for something that follows a specific naming convention?
In other words, where does the file being downloaded actually come from?
Can you make it for soundhound? Thanks. Works magically! !
Excellent idea, but I also wonder where the songs are downloaded from and at what quality. Maybe different quality options and Soundhound support would make it a little better?
Sent from my Vivid 4G using Tapatalk
fur fixing purposes....doesn't work on my Nexus 5 4.4.2 either. Timing out.
like the idea of the app!
+1 where do the songs come from?
Hi,
Thanks for the interest in the app.
Next month my nexus 5 should arrive - be sure to check for updates and fixes
The app currently checks the best match from youtube and uses an online MP3 you tube downloader to download the song.
I like the idea of soundcloud, and soundhound, I have to check that.
It works for youtube share though

Android for Work compatibility?

I've done quite a bit of searching, and input every search term I can think of, but haven't been able to find an answer to this question: Does anyone know if the Zenfone 2 Laser ze551kl supports Work Profiles for Android for Work?
*EDIT* -- I figured out a way that people can test to see if their phone natively supports Work Profiles (required for Android for Work using Google's MDM): Test DPC, Google's profile test app for developers. If you (or anyone else reading this) is able, could you download Test DPC on your ze551kl and at least go through the initial steps in setup? If the phone doesn't support Work Profiles it will through up a message saying as much (tested the app on an s4, which got that error message) in the first few steps of the setup.
All more general searches I do only bring up results for the recent firmware update that added support to the ze551ml (not the ze551kl). When I narrow the search enough to exclude that model from the results, I only get results for lists of articles or queries that have separate, unrelated posts for ze551kl and Android for Work.
It's too bad all manufacture's don't just include support for the Work Profile (i.e., the AT&T S4 I currently use issued as a work phone still doesn't support it).
So -- does anyone know the answer to this question? I'd really appreciate it.
Its got the ability to have different user profiles, but I'm not sure if that's what you're referring to. Is it an app or would it be in the settings menu somewhere?

It's a bit different than user profiles, but similar.
http://arstechnica.com/information-...r-work-dual-persona-support-comes-to-android/
It essentially creates a containerized section on the phone for Google Apps for Work. You end up with "two" hangouts, gmail, contacts, etc (which is nice, because it removes the account from switching account options in apps -- like when you share to Hangouts and it makes you select an account everytime if you have more than one). Instead of the work accounts device policy enabling it to see all apps installed on phone, have permissions to remote wipe, the Work Profile makes it so that the work account device policy can only see information in the Work Profile, and only has permissions to remote wipe the work profile.
I currently use Android for Work on my Moto X Pure 2014, and carry a separate s4 issued by work. I'd like to just put both of those sims into one phone, but I need something decent, that supports data on both sims (data connection active on both at same time not required), that also supports Android for Work.
Gotcha, I don't really see any Android for work options anywhere in mine, is there anything you had to download from the Play Store on your Moto X to get it working?

Unfortunately it's only something you can verify if you start setting up a Google apps account that can use it. Otherwise it doesn't show up anywhere.
I really appreciate you digging around for it though.

Ahh gotcha. If I hear something, I'll let you know. Might be worth a shot to email ASUS about it.

We can only hope. Really appreciate you taking the time to test it!
Still trying to figure out if all devices on Marshmallow (whether launched with it, or updated to it) include support for Work Profile. Seems like that's the case, but having a hard time finding a definitive answer.

That would be awesome if 6.0 supports Android for work natively, at this point it probably should.
