Has anyone been able to get Tasker or Juice Defender or SuperPower or anything similar able to control mobile data and GPS on Gingerbread? Anyone have any insight as to why these apps don't work on 2.3? I'm assuming Gingerbread handles mobile data and GPS differently than Froyo?

Because the developers for those apps haven't optimized them for Gingerbread yet. Once they update them you will be able to use them.
...and it seem there's a bug in Gingerbread permission (or they enforce them ?).
Even you put "android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE" in your manifest for your app you won't be granted this permission, then you can't enable/disable directly mobile data .
It's really annoying ! If you look at the android docs there's no info about this modification in the permission management !
Hope this will be fixed soon (or a way to bypass that discovered).
...
I figured something must be up! Perhaps someone with more knowledge than I can open up an issue with Google?
At least i saw one issue reported :

I starred it, I also noticed a lot of pissed off devs in the comments. Some to the point where they quit and pulling their apps from the market, a lot of iOS comparisons too.

Title states my question, but I would like to know if there is anything similar and if not...would anyone welcome it and and features that would be nice to have like being able to chat with other IMs for example
Thanks

just wait..if this is like trillians desktop client...we are in for a big treat. I love trillian!
I've never used BBM but I've been told Google Talk is similar and I think there's a Talk app for most smartphones, so you could give it a try until Trillian comes out.
Here's the IM application. Though I think you need r/w access to install it. I tried to push it and it failed.

whoops, I got it pushed. Now i need to find some friends.
I might be misunderstood, I am not necessarily asking for an app similar to it to actually personally use. I was wanting to try and make one better than the rest...and responsive like BBM, but if these others are awesome then i wont waste my time. Thanks for the help and feed back, i will definitely look into some of these and if i feel they arent good enough then i will make one then ;P
Edit: What info do you have on ImProvider...the site i found is chinese and doesnt have much info at all
ImProvider.apk is Google Talk, which is like BBM.
See here on how to install it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735625
Thanks for that information
palringo on the market.
There are a few apps that I would like to see in the future. But I would like to know wheres an effective place to request apps and developers review and consider? (If there is an avenue that does exist that is.)

Browser Login Utility
Hi,
I was using an app called Open Wifi Login before.
it was able to submit to (including hidden fields) browser login pages regardless of the validity of SSL Certificates (accepts all certificates).
it was disabled in v1.5 by the developers and replaced as a paid app now.
unfortunately paid apps are not supported in my country.
also, i was only able to install it via appbrain before, which is also disabled now.
another app like it exists, Wifi Browser Login, but it doesn't support accepting all certificates. i'm still unable to access the free wifi available in here including from work and some malls.
maybe anyone could provide the apk for the earlier versions of it... v1.3 or v1.4?
or maybe someone could develop a free app like it?
i think it is a very useful tool to have.
Thanks.

Try contacting the people on the Market where you placed your app.
Good luck,

If you mean the Android Market there are a few reasons why it would not show up. I still have problems with this on few devices actually.
Possible reasons...
Screen Resolution not supported. In you android Manifest you must specify which res are supported.
Device does not support one of the required features, bluetooth, compass ect...
Device is below minimum sdk version.

Its not a matter of working, its a matter of the market filters excluding it.
If it's been out for a week, it should at least show on Appbrain or androlib. I'd start there, just to check if it's actually in the market at all.
If a search brings it up there it means you messed up with the filters. If it doesn't show up even there, it means the app is not on the market at all, and you should probably contact Google support...
Post your AndroidManifest.xml file and what phone you are using.
Hi all
I would like to know if it's possible to update a third party application without user action.
I noted that the android market can self-update the installed apps. The user is not asked about an acknowledgment.
I don't want to offer my self-coded app in the market. I found a way to update this app from my homepage, but the user must this affirm.
you could make a service that runs when the phone boots up that checks whether a new version exists, and if it does it downloads it.

thanks for your help.
That's not the problem. The download and the install works fine. All I want is to get rid of the dialog asking the user whether he want to update or not.
sorry ignore, misread the question

if after installing the app you open the app from within the market again, it gives you the option of auto-updating?

my application is not available on the market. it's a business applikation only used by our company. therefore i don't want to upload it to the market.
oh I get you. I know it must be possible because like you said the market can do it, but I don't know how, sorry.
ill do some digging and see what I can find.

I've been running CM7 since the last "Alpha" release and have it updated with the Oct 22 update. I don't recall exactly when, but I started recieving these "optout" notifications. I don't know if it's related to CM7 or something else, but they're not cool at all . Does anyone know where they're coming from or how to stop them?

The only app I have installed now that was not before I switched to CM7 is Go SMS Pro. Has anyone had any experience with it?
Go sms pro doesn't do that, but i don't use go fb chat. What opens when you click it?

Found this after a bit of research. Looks like an adbased app on your phone is using their apk. Seems they do support opt out, but aren't doing a good job a securing your identity period.

I'm not going to click those %^#$%#$%#$ Spam messages... I clear all the notifications. The only features of Go SMS Pro I use are SMS & MMS. I don't have Facebook, Myspace, Google+ or any other "Social networking" (Read: Stalking) crap. Want nothing to do with any of them. Any ideas how I can track down where it came from? I've looked at the installed apps and services with Titanium Backup and nothing stands out. Unless One of the other apps got 'updated' to include this new 'feature', Go SMS seems the most likely suspect at the moment.

wats a myspace?
Although I usually have 150-200+ apps installed at any one time, I started getting those annoying little "notifications" almost as soon as I installed the free version of the IPhone keyboard. Not cool at all...
How often do they come up? Is it at a predetermined time or is it random? A relatively easy way to narrow it down may be to look at market reviews of suspected apps.
Girlfriend had this problem. There's an app called airpush detector on the market. Download it to see what's causing the ads
