Yesterday i bought a HTC Magic, and it's awesome. But there is one thing i miss, and it is to control the phone through the PC. When i'm at the office, it's so great to have the mobile in a window on the desktop when it's connected through the USB. Does anyone know if there is an application that make this possible? Like with the WinMo-application MyMobiler?

I would like to know if it is possible to launch my application whenever a new entry is written to phone call log (i.e. out-going, in-coming or missed call). I wrote an application to manage the call log entries as per user preferences by listening to the publication of android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE events. My application is working fine as long as its process is running. However if the user has stopped my application with a task-killer application, then the log entries can not be managed as my app itself was not running. I need a way to make sure that my application is launched in the background if it is not already running when the android.intent.action.PHONE_STATE occurs. Or is it possible to launch my application as a service that always runs?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Sony Ericsson X10 Mini Pro - I hate it for several reasons! but I can't ever give it for several reasons!(Most important reason being it's really small + it's an Android phone)Probably the most annoying feature is not being able to put the phone down *instantly* oK, to be fair this a 'fantastic' feature of 95% of Android phones What's wrong with having a phyical button that ends EVERYTHING!Instead, I *have* to WAIT for the damn icon to appear after removing from the side of my head! It takes a LOOONG lifetime for the icon to appear - OK, it probably takes 1/2 - 1 second to appear - tooo long for me! And frustrating! How many hours of my life have I lost waiting for the button to appear so that I can end the call! AND what happens if you accidentally hit something else!! And end up going to another menu! You have to navigate your way back to the call - this take an enternity to do - and especially f u start panicing and want to do it quickly - the evil phone knows! and slooows you down!
1. What am I missing?? Is there a quick way to put the phone down with one of the keys?
2. Else, failing that, is there an application that will let me use one of the physical keys to put the phone down? Not sure how well this would work out - but can't think it would be hard to program?
I've come across one of the *best* applications the world has ever seen for Android! Actually... there's quite a few of these - I can put loudspeaker on by simply turning the phone upside down OR putting it flat face down! (Getting to the loud speaker to work is a pain in the **** for me otherwise!)is there a similar application to end my calls? Am I going mad? Does someone out there understand or appreciate my problems!
I've been a Blackberry guy for 5 years. I made the switch from Storm 2 to the DX. I miss two things from my Blackberry. 1) PHONE ONLY. I would switch my BB to "phone only" at night when I went to bed. So I wasnt awakened for any messages, but did if I received a phone call. I am a State Trooper and I get called out every so often so this worked great. CAN'T FIND ANY APP OR SETTING TO MIMIC THIS FROM MY BB. 2)BB messenger. Wish I still had the "d" or "r" when I sent a message to someone to know if they got it or if they read the message.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI just rebuilt an application to use some new assets, and now I get this message on my phone when I try to install it: "Application not installed" "UnitTests could not be installed on this phone" Anyone know what's going on? I've checked and I've definitely got "Unknown sources" ticked on the application settings. This is just a self signed application to run my unit tests on an actual phone (the emulator doesn't cut it for real testing). I tried creating a new keystore, and they didn't help. What on earth? The only thing I can think of that I've done recently is accept a google security update.If they've silently done some other updates that prevent self signed applications running, I'm severely upset.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI really wanted GDE to work but today it made my phone all but useless. It locked up my phone for 5 minutes, so i pulled the battery to reset and for the next 45 minutes the phone app would not work at all, it would open but would not dial any #, and the rest of GDE was so slow i couldnt do anything. I couldnt turn wifi on or off, gps on or off, close open programs or open new ones. I finally had to uninstall it cause it was just too much for the phone. Its a shame cause i liked it, i installed home ++ today and seems to be doing ok.

I made a mistake and I still had the debug version of my app (from Eclipse) on my phone when I tried to install a signed version. The install failed, but I could no longer access the debug version in Manage Applications to un install it. I was at work and couldn't reinstall the debug version in order to uni nstall, so I did a complete factory reset of my phone (using My Backup Pro to backup stuff). Now I can install my app. However, now I notice upon reboot that my app loses all of its data from shared preferences. I'm not entirely sure that it's not a problem of mine somehow, but does anyone know why it is doing that and how I can fix it? I may have left the debug gable. true on in the version I'm trying to test. Would that cause this problem?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSuppose I wanted to design a cheap little app which lets you schedule fake phone calls to yourself, along similar lines as this app:
http://magictap.net/fakecalls/
I'd imagine using an AlarmManager would be suitable for this purpose, the question is how to generate a fake incoming call screen, complete with the slide to answer call option. My initial approach, the AlarmManager should launch a PendingIntent. However, I'm not sure where to go from here, in particular to get an Activity started which displays the fake call screen.
I got a Dev phone and installed plenty of applications, but the battery was used out in 7~8 hours, even not enough for over-night. I guess some applications, which had permission to prevent system from sleeping, killed the battery. So I am very curious if Google will have any application criteria/certification for the developers, especially for the power usage.
