Hello.
I have a week to present my homework, an app for WM5/WM6.
Description:
Two screens.
Screen one: a Calendar showing one month and arrows to move to other months. And a button to take you to screen two.
Scrren two: a list of whatever (let say, accesories for X7501 currently on stock) that feeds of a DB. And a button to go back to screen one.
So basically is creating a DB (item, stock) and a calendar.
I would need you to give me:
1. The code with commentaries (*/this is the button to change month*/ etc).
2. Your paypal account
Who can do it? For how much?
Thanks!
dude that is so cheating. why you gonna pick building an app for wm if you dont even know how to build one.
Hello.
1. The teacher was not supposed to ask that of us.
2. I know how to make an app, but not that one. I can make basic stuff, like coin toss, dice roll, among other stuff. I could learn to program that, but I do not have time, I sleep like 4 hours a day... learning to do that would mean 10 hours.... I don't have 10 hours.
3. I'm not going to live by making apps for WM.
4. Somebody could use some extra dollars. And some might even enjoy building that.
I don't think it's such a bad Idea.
Well.... once again, any one can help me with that simple app?
Regards.
Maybe you should've started this a lot longer before the deadline? I can't really poke holes given that I had to do a 3 minute composition (for my music GCSE) in one night...

Then argue with them and point out they can't set work like that?

I would do it, but it goes against the principal of exams/qualifications, and I couldn't anyway...
l3v5y:
It was set on wednesday 16.
And I have until monday 28th...
There's no "lot longer before deadline". If there is, it is now, we have time.
I'm not going to argue the other 4 points.
------------------------
All:
I'm asking for help, and expecting replies about "I can help" or "here's this links that will help" or a Private Message with something along those lines.
I know you can reply with "that's wrong", but could you please not obstaculize?
And could you please not reply with "it's better for you to learn" because it's not and you do not particularly care about me learning to build a DB or a calendar.
And it's not like I'm a greedy student who offers $5 or $10 USD. It's a job and it's better paid.
Once again.... anyone that might be kind enough to help?
Regards.
I'm curious as to how much you're willing to pay. A low-level code monkey can probably get $20/hr. You're better off looking at how tene implemented PCM calendar (or similar).
huh? http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/obstaculize
Sorry, English is not my first language.... I meant something like "not-help", not as much as deter, restrain, discourage... just like being an obstacale...
I'll prefer to let the programmer set the price for the job done, not by the hour of course... and then we'll talk about it.
But probably it will be way more than $20 per hour of real efficient work.
Go download eMbedded Visual Basic from the MS Website:
Not that I want to discourage developers getting money, but the fact is, the two things you are discussing (Forms and calendar) are already available as code samples in eMbedded Visual Basic. Most, if not all developers know this...
So basically, if your teacher doesn't understand that making this project is as simple as writing your own name, than it won't matter whether you cheat or not. Besides, you will still have to make the program yourself, even with the two code samples.
The calendar is called DateTimePicker
And from memory, the page sample is just called Form
Hope This Helps
This is just a Test to show you what i have made..if this is the kinda stuff you want..send me the details for the About page
NOTE : This requires Internet Connection to be activated before Starting the application
See attached
Jadel:
Well now there's some help. It actually got me started with the calendar and the app itself.
You can watch progress here http://www.tech-medellin.com/TempUploads/advance.wmv
Ather90:
And that's even better. More like I was hoping for, unfortunately I lost hope with first replies and started myself.
Any way, perhaps you could help me with accesories. I've watched what you did and it's great, but not what I'm looking for... although I could add it...
The teacher asked for a database stored in the app (not updatable nor modificable by user). A list must be created based on the DB. I would fill it with data (I actually sell devices and accesories)
Can you help with that? For how much?
Thanks!
im sorry but i dnt know a thing abt Databases
I will give you the source code..its coded in VS 2008 Pro
You can get some info abt Db here http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/
Thanks a lot!
I have almost finished my app.
Actually two of them I had forgotten there was a second one.
(sorry for not replaying until today)
Happy to hear it's alsmost done
Sorry I dnt know anythng about programming PPC.

for those who don't know what is idiamond. check it over here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=463018
i don't see why the thread has been closed even though the beta is supposebly over. (mine is still working and i installed it the first day it was released). i think we should be free to discuss about it. I'm personally creating this thread cause i need to report some major bugs so D-man can be aware of these issues that are very annoying.
1- with the Touch Pro. when your phone is locked if you slide out and and then you slide right back in the keyboard it automaticly remove the password protection and unlock the device.
2 with the touch pro again. everytime when you slide the keyboard and go try to type something on email or messages whatever it doesnt let you type the first try it takes you to call history. u gotta type on the task manager on the messaging section to go back and the second time it lets you.
if you have any other issues/thoughts, please share
Brillaint
Super lil app
Only niggle is wallpaper is set to black only.. would be good to be able to change it
i tried the sw and i found a strange thing in the setting xml file... there was a command line called "deploytrojan=1"...
however, i think this sw is really cool, would be better with autolock function and the possibility to set a "fixed line" of icons not sliding with the other... and a better clock function.
I think that the idiamond project is simply perfect
and I saw the videos.....it's amazing
I can't wait til it finally finished
The coverflow thing looks very very interesting on the videos!
I love this project, and i'm really waiting for the final release
I don't want to talk about the developer...
I don't understand his philosophy...
Ya I thought it was strange to issue a beta version and then lock it out on Jan 15th. My only thought it is he will try to sell it after its created and thats why he was all weird about the program time out.

You people should read the threads. People are different. So is D-MAN666. He wanted to end the beta to keep his interest. Most things that are in beta, REMAIN beta for A LONG TIME. And he felt that it would be better to do them in phases. He is weird I'll give you that but who isn't? I'm certainly sure that some people think I'm weird.
but it's me who is weirdest......
;-)
Right????
Long live D-Man and long live XDA-Developers!!!!!!!!!!!!
Diamond and HD FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I <3 Tmobile UK....
yet i have fido in canada.....
strange....
hows that for weird....
dont think d-man is weird cause he ends beta.... be happy he gave beta...
I think iDiamond is really nice, BUT I think it sucks hard that there is no weather app included and reading a sms is als crap cause the keyboard almost covers 80% of the new message...
Im used to see the whole message and not that "Outlook like" crappy view....
where's the cab file in order to download this?
Beta period is over....so forget the cab it wont work
wow...do we have any news about the official version?
After a search on web, i found this file http://rapidshare.com/files/182420296/v1.rar
Does anybody knows if it works or i'm gonna **** my diamond?
IDiamond Project is one of the best launchers out there. I am currently using slow ifonz and am waiting for the real deal to drop from Dmann666! I am not an iphone wanna be but i just want a launcher that is quick and cuztomizable like idiamond. I will pay for this app!

until January 15th...oO!
If I remember correctly DMan666 said in the Idiamond thread he would make sure people could still use the beta after january 15th.
I hope he does because I have been using it since the day it was released and love it.
For the people whining about lack of weather and active icons etc. It is a BETA and nobody is forcing you to use it. So give positive feedback or come up with constructive ideas instead of pure negativism.

I know right! Complaining was one of the things DMann didnt appreciate.
Hey, if it works past the 15th please let me know and i will put it back on my phone.
Does anyone know about how long shipping is and is there anything cool i can do to it once i get it or any good apps to download? Thanks
Did you try reading ANY of the numerous threads on this forum that discuss everything you've asked?
hey c'mon, the dude is excited! this isn't an 'iphone' forum, no need to bash him!
i find it fun to 'race' the iphoners in my office with a simple 'google' search...
someone calls out a 'thing' to look up...while they are typing away, you use voice search and BAM, you smoke em.
i know, childish, however, so much fun to stick it to iphoners.
Shipping is 1-2 days and apps are easy to find once you have the phone..
As the previous poster mentioned, I would place my bet for Wednesday.
As for apps.
You can google for some decent lists. 101android ro something.(just google best android apps)
Stuff i will personally recommend.
1) Get Google voice set-up for voicemail. Extremely cool. Text transcriptions definitely give you the jist(but certainly miss some words).
2)Dolphin Browser - Multi touch web browser.
3)TaskKiller - I like the widget for killing apps I want to full close.
4) Ebuddy/Meebo for an instant messenger.
5) Live Scores for sports scores. Only one that seems to be updated quickly.(maybe 30 seconds behind sportsline.com or so)
6)BetterCut - I paid for this(2.99???). It lets you adjust your homescreen short cuts. Download icon packs and use new icons/different words etc.. Makes for cleaner home screens. Free version is Anycut.
7) AContacts - Shows your call log with exact timing. Something i prefer to normal one.
8)Beamreader - PDF viewer.
9)Gdocs - Google docs viewer basically. Useful to view MS office stuff.
10) Ring toggle - very simple ringtone/vibrate toggle thing. I like it.
11) Agend Widget - Best widget to show calendar on home screen
12) Istockmanager - If you use TD Ameritrade this program is amazing. Level 2, trading etc, all real time, charts, the works
13)Tune Wiki - A tad better then installed music player
I spent more time then i expected on this post! Anyways, you can work at setting up your calendar/gdocs/even contacts to some degree all ready through google if you want. They all sync anyways. There are a ton more awesome programs, but those are the ones I have used over the last year or 2 on android(and redownloaded for nexus one)
Congratz, your going to enjoy it! Check out the threads here for the good scoop!

Congrats...i just got mine last Thursday..
Here is some info about delivery time frame
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619572
I'm considering replacing my wife with mine. I'm just waiting for the right app to come out ;-)
Though I should have really thought that one out before I named him Sam Google.....
Oh man I'm so pumped too. I ordered mine on Saturday, and spent all day thinking it wouldn't be shipped out today because of the holiday, then got an email at 11:20pm EST saying it has been shipped and will be delivered by 3pm tomorrow (Tuesday). YES!
So yeah, you will probably get it Wednesday.
please we do not need the mail man, see you faint once he comes walking at your door. hehe j/k =) hope you enjoy your phone. it rocks!
Just got it a few hours ago, stayed home from school so i wouldnt miss the fedex guy. haha

lol! Actually that app would rake in millions.. Hmm.. I guess it's time to install the sdk
I am really loving this upgrade and for the first time I am considering putting away my iphone and using ONLY the Streak. Being I have 2 phone numbers and everyone knows the number on my iphone, I will forward those calls to the Streak and when I want to go lite, I will UN-forward and carry the iphone ..
I have the Mugen extended and got several days out of the battery. Something in 2.2 is sucking the battery life, I will have to go 'vampire hunting' but in the meanwhile .. I would call it a blessing to get 24 hours out of the Mugen. Nothing worse that having carry charging accessories everywhere you. I usually end up forgetting my charger somewhere ..
I also like the new mail program. It checks gmail and hotmail besides checking pop accounts.
RAMBLE-RAMBLE .. I don't know if I like the "launcher." I forget what it is called. Will probably use ADW unless I can get used to Dells. I can't figure out how to get it back now that I made ADW default .. Anyone know how ??
Is everyone happy like I am? Mostly it was a big relief because I always wondered if the Betas would get updates, after all .. we are Dell's Redheaded Step Children .. No support .. No warranty ..
To get the launcher go to settings > applications > manae applications. Go to adw launcher and click clear defaults. Also do the same for dell launcher. Now when you press home it will ask you what launcher to use.

GREAT and THANK YOU ..
Having a hard time trying to edit those pages ... For example the contacts page/menu .. How do I remove one? Or how do I stop it from checking the weather. I see how to add things, but removing ?? Can't do it ..
I found in "accessibility" you can set your power button to hang up the phone. LOVE THAT !!! For me, nothing is more frustrating than not being able to hang up the phone IMMEDIATELY .. You know .. talking to your boyfriend when your husband sneaks up on you .. Just kidding !!!

I prefer to just look out the window or step outside. I am in Florida and hot or cold it is ALWAYS humid with a chance of rain !!
I love my Streak with 2.2! Not sure about the Stage yet. I think I will mostly use the LauncherPro (I like the way it looks/runs better than ADW.Launcher). Also, I recommend installing the Home Switcher to easily go back and forth between different launchers.
I can't remember if I ever tried LauncherPro and don't think I ever knew about Launcher Switcher . Thanks.
Anyone having problems with their Streak shutting off since the upgrade? I am and I don't think it is a battery door thing. I will check again though.
Did you by chance do a factory reset right after the upgrade? I did and I haven't had any shutdown issues so far.
Sorry to ask, just a few steps above android newbie, how do I do a reset ?? Is it in Settings? I forget ..
FOUND IT >..
Screenshots please
Hi fellow Streakers. I haven't been able to update, but would like to see a ton of screenshots. Just so I can see how good everything is. Has text message word size changed any?
I really should have just reset on my own because I noticed lots of apps running all the time and battery usage was A LOT .. I just hate adding things again like email accounts blah blah blah .. But a clean system is a happy system.

The keyboard is great but the screen words still seem so small to me.
I like Swype but I think I like SlideIt Keyboard even better. Swype seems to understand my touch a little better .. JUST A LITTLE .. but SlideIt is easier for me to use .. I don't know why. That's why I always left BOTH apps on my phones.

Sounds like Fishing for an OMG to me (The Club)
can you guys show side by side screen shots of the launchers? I don't mind the stage. All I did was delete the widgets that come up on default, like Dell's mouthpiece Amy-B suggested. For those that don't know, I took the link to 0100, manually entered it into my streak, it did the download, and started the install. Once it did, had a hard time with some of the previous settings putting me into a boot loop/force close with the google calendar so I did a factory reset and all was good. The dell backup tool helped a lot with my previous apps, but I have noticed a lot of force closes, but I believe that's due to versions of apps that were specific to 1.6.
oh and here's a bit of funny. On Dell's community forum, I made a suggestion that I should talk to all the streakers I know and see if there is a class action suit to be had here, and they deleted my post and sent me a "we removed your post for yada yada yada language and violation of terms". I got my morning laugh over that one!
I think I found my PERFECT launcher .. It's called Zeam and it is free. Seems like a combination of a few launchers.

Bit of a newb post for me this one and I know you people probably expect better of me xD.. but what the hell..
FIRSTLY - Yes I know this thread is posted on other phones! However it's not on the Desire so some people may not know ^_^
If you haven't already noticed (it's hard not to!) the Android Market is celebrating it's 10 BILLION downloads, by offering us 10 popular apps each day, for just 10p/10cents (whatever your currency is)
There are 10 new apps each day, and if you have a problem with downloading them just check out this, and you can download them from your PC to your phone!
Might want to highlight the link a bit more
Too bad it's not possible to buy an app for future use.
I wanted to buy Asphalt 6, but I only have a Desire, so it's not possible

i think apps are linked to google account? and you can redownload when you change device if you use your same account..
I got swiftkeyx because I figured it would come in handy one day though I prefer to use swype myself. I actually kind of hoped I could use it on a tablet when I get one then I noticed there is a different tablet version
Spent already $ 0.40 LOL
Oh... i want to buy these apps but i've got no credit card here -_-
Dunno what happened or how this works exactly, but last night i had swiftkey and endomondo for $0.10, and now they are regular price. As I remember, they were not listed on the promotion link in the market on my device, nor on the android market website. Now it's the same thing with awd launcher ex, it's not listed but it's $0.10. Anyone has a clue how this work? Do we know the exact list of apps that are available for $0.10?
they only do 10 apps per day, then the previous day's apps go back to regular price I think..
links on market don't update that quick either. better check the website if u want up to date info

Indeed they only stay 10 cents for 24 hours then it goes to 10 new apps.
My guess is google wears the cost and still pays the dev the normal money they would get

It's 10 different apps every day, so the apps that cost 10p today will go back to normal price tomorrow, and so on and so forth. The website link I sent lists all of the available apps for that day, and I'm pretty sure the new market also has a category from the "main menu" type thing where it displays all the 10p apps.
Yay. Big link for me
I already bought 10 apps.
The reason I was moping was that I can't buy asphalt, because the desire I have isn't supported, so I can't even buy it.
So its not possible to buy for a future tablet, if your current device doesn't support it in the first place.

Hi if you have access to another android device bit more powerful than desire then u can add ur google account on that if its got gb running and download it to that device. For example i also wanted asphalt 6 for my next device so i added my google account to sisters nexus s and bought it on there.
