I am looking for an app, that say when I go to bed at 2300, it auto silences. It goes back to loud at 0600. When I get to work at 0800, it silences again. Yet, when my GF calls, I want it to always override and ring no matter what time it is.Are there any programs like this that will work for what I want?

I have been playing around with Timeriffic (great app!) and wondered if anyone knows if there is a way to have Auto Rotate of screen to not be enabled say, from 23:00 until 7:00?Even a separate (freeware) app would be okay as I don't see Timeriffic doing this? PS - Is there a way to save/export timeriffic settings/personal saved options?
View 6 Replies View RelatedCan you set the scenes to automatically switch depending on time of day on the phone? I'd definitely use them if at 8am Mon-Fri the scene switched to Work. At 6pm Mon-Thur it would be nice for it to switch to the default home screen. 6pm Fri I'd like it to switch to the Play scene. Is this a capability or do you have to change them manually via menu system?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Motorola Milestone running Android 2.1. What is your best app/widget to switch profiles? I want something that allows me to switch among: completely silent, vibration without ringer, vibration with ringer. I currently use the free app "Profiles' by "egg 'n stone". It's ok, but I was wondering if there's anything better.
I know there are plenty of widgets to enable/disable ringer and vibration; I tried several, but most didn't work well, especially when I tried to combine ringer and vibration: i.e. they were ok if I only wanted to enable or disable one of the two, but not both. Coming from Nokias and the Iphone, I must say I'm really disappointed there isn't soemthing integrated in the OS to switch profiles (like with Nokias) or at least a physical button to enable/disable the ringer, like in the Iphone.
does anyone know of an app that will let me create and set profiles that change the sms notification sound?I know apps that will change the standard notification sound / volume, but I specifically want to change the sms notification sound.

I can't believe that every time I want to move from one profile to another (gooing into a meetiong for example) I have to press:- Menu / Settings / Sound & Display and then select the profile.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI switched to a Motorola Droid 5 days ago (from a Blackberry curve). I'm having some trouble understanding some of the behavior and getting used to it. These are all things that I didn't have to deal with on the blackberry. I know they are different devices but I use my Phone primarily for work. I'm afraid now that I'll miss important messages or voice calls..
- Phone goes Mute (ringer)... No idea how it gets there. Probably a bad finger swipe on the home screen. Is there a way to disable this?
- No easy change from profiles (notifications, ringer, etc...). I tried a few apps but they all seems to fail at turning on/off notifications for e-mail/gmail.
- don't receive my messages (gmail), seems like it doesn't sync all the time
- gapps crashes all the time when downloading an app from the market.
- Random calls...
- Didn't use the browser, battery is 70%. Put it down for a movie (2 hours) and then battery is now 20%... Browser used the battery 50% according to the phone. Switch to the browser, was on the google.com home page.
I did search on all of these and they seem to be pretty much standard issues that people are having. Are they?Other that that it seems like a great phone. But like I said, I'm afraid of not getting calls sometime because it gets turned to "mute".
I need an app that changes my wallpaper depending on a specified schedule, like say one for the afternoon and one for night. Anything in the market like that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn Android I get the version of the SDK easily (Build.VERSION.SDK) but I need to use LabeledIntent only if the platform is newer than 1.6 (>Build.VERSION_CODES.DONUT) I suppose that Reflection is necessary (I have read this link but it is not clear for a class or to me). This is the code but it gives me an exception because in my Android 1.6, the compiler verifies if the package exists even if the condition is not applied:
Intent theIntent=....;

try{
Intent intentChooser = Intent.createChooser(intent,"Choose between these programs");

I'm having hard times parsing multiple different XML files on Android using the built-in SAX parser.
Nate and Aron Saunders have helped me with the right approach to this problem but I struggle in implementing it. You can read about it here.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3583876/how-to-parse-different-xml-files-using-sax-on-android
I have ten different XML files. code...
And so on. Every root tag is different. Now I know that I could branch the parser to trigger a different event on every root tag but I'm not quite sure I know how exactly do achieve this.
How would I tell my SAX handler that he should parse for AnotherInnerTag with its attributes based on the root tag?

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy job takes me to the courthouse several times a week. If you forget to silence your ringer and the phone rings, the judge takes the phone and you have to travel back to the courthouse at the end of the day to recover it. The judge also gets really really mad and gives lots of grief. So I need a failsafe way to automatically turn off the ringer while in the courthouse. I read this thread Set profile by GPS location about a program named Locale, but it indicated that if the phone loses the GPS signal, Locale will automatically revert the phone to the default profile or some other profile. I come from a Symbian phone where the phone would "learn" every cell tower ID in a given area and then set the phone's profile upon getting a signal from one of those towers. The profile would stick, regardless of losing the signal, unless and until it got a signal from a different tower which was not on the list it had "learned" from the location area. That is failsafe. Is there anything for an Android based phone which will silence the ring on a failsafe basis?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to implement a functionality when i press the VOLUME DOWN and POWER BUTTON simultaneously; i must be able to run a method code inside my Activity.
public boolean onKeyUp(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
}
From my initial search; it seems that only one such key press event is acknowledged at a time in Android usng the onKeyUp method. Is it true?
In my Android phone, on simultaneously pressing POWER BUTTON as well as MENU BUTTON i am able to capture a screen shot.
Does this feature not acknowledge simultaneous key presses?
I am working on a game for android at the moment, and was wondering how i would change the screen depending on orientation.
So if the user turned the phone horizontally then the app would be viewed horizontally if you know what i mean

I am trying to see if anyone knows if it is possible to change the update time of MyLocationOverlay (http://bit .ly /dBIVdj). I have tried subclassing MyLocationOverlay and implementing my own location manager but when that happens I do not see the overlay on the map. I would try overriding the drawMyLocation method however I don't know which canvas to provide the method (since I would be drawing onLocationChange). To summarize, I am looking to do three things in MyLocationOverlay subclass:
1. Change the location update times to whatever I want.
2. Draw the "my location" dot with the radius when the onLocationChanged() method is called.
I've thought about making my own special class with special overlay -- but I feel like there has to be a better method to get what I want out of this class.
I am using android.intent.action.LOCALE_CHANGED to detect language changes and update my widgets. Is there something analogous for date and time format changes? I don't see anything, but I could be just blind.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using a custom title view in my application for each activity. In one of the activities, based on button clicks I need to change the custom title view. Now this works fine every time when I make a call to setFeatureInt.
But if I try to update any items in the custom title (say change the text of a button or a text view on the title), the update does not take place.
Debugging through the code shows that the text view and button instances are not null and I can also see the custom title bar. But the text on the text view or the button is not updated. Has anyone else faced this problem? How do I resolve it?
