After successfully installing and regularly using the Gmote app, wondered if there was one for controlling the Xbox 360 and/or Nintendo Wii? - predominantly interested in one to control the Xbox.

I've been messing around with controlling my computer with my Droid remotely, using Wake On Lan to turn it on over the internet and Torrent-Fu/AndroidVNC to interact with it. The only thing I can't seem to figure out, however, is remote shutdown. Can anyone recommend me an app that will do this? I thought AndroidVNC would have a menu option for it or something, but no such luck.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a list that contains elements not necessarily occupying the entire width of the screen, but even if using android:layout_width="wrap_content" on my elements, they always behave as if their width value were set to "fill_parent" instead. If I set a fixed value for the width, e.g. "100px", that value is indeed used, but I just can't get wrap_content to work.
Example simple list item:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/ android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#707"> <TextView android:id="@+id/text1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
android:background="#770" android:text="Text1" /> <TextView android:id="@+id/text2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentLeft="true" android:layout_below="@id/ text1"
android:background="#077" android:text="Text2" /> </RelativeLayout>
What am I missing here? How do I accomplish a list item with wrap_content behaviour, i.e., where the width of each RelativeLayout is adapted to the length of the strings in the contained text views?
I bumped into a guy I know the other day and happened to notice he had a HTC desire. We had a brief chat about it and he showed me some of his apps. He had an app that can control torrent downloads on your PC. I forget what it was called. This would be a usefull app.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCan anyone recommend an app I can use to control my Music via my mic enabled headphones, similar to what the iphone offers. I found an app called droid shuffle, which sounded perfect but I can't get it to work on my Captivate. Basically I want to be able to press the mic button twice to advance to the next track. This and DRM are the only reasons I wish my droid was more iphoneish.

The results of this tests imples test_f() is not being inlined, even though it really is a prime candidate for it. It should also be possible to do this inlining at compile time.I investigated this further, and it turns out Dalvik doesn't do inlining at this date.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently use Timeriffic, which has been great at managing settings for different times of the day. What I am looking for, however, is an application similar to that where I can define the sound behavior for one specific application.
What I am trying to do is make it so all notifications are at 10% volume during the night, but Id like to make notifications from Google Talk louder, like at 50%. I haven't been able to find anything that would allow a rule like that, but thought Id ask since you guys seem to know everything!
I want to create an application that is similar to a phone call, where it produces sounds through the speaker and receives sounds through the mic. i want to know if i can have an access to control the speaker and the mic to produce and receive sounds simultaneously (like a regular phone call) in my application. i also want to know if it is possible to specify the range of frequencies of the produced and received sounds.

I've been trying to find some documentation on launching / controlling the Google Navigation app via Intents or otherwise. I was hoping to find an intent to launch the navigation app with address parameters setup and start navigation immediately.
Can't find anything out there, so I'm still not even sure if it can be done.

I have gmail and my regular pop email set up on my Incredible. Well, almost set up. They seem to "grab" new mail automatically, instead of just when I want them to. I cannot seem to find settings for either app that allows me to control when and if new email is downloaded to the phone.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy Android cell phone overrides my selection of vibrate mode and notification ringing volume (becomes the permanent settings) when pressing the side volume button. I was told by customer service ALL Android phones do this due to the Android operating system. First of all it true? Is there a way to force an Android smart phone to keep the receiving call volume at its intended volume setting and keep the "NEVER" vibrate selection from switching even when pressing the volume button (just want the volume button to control the audio level during a call)? In order to use cell phones for receiving emergency calls one should be able to force a phone to keep its intended receive call notification settings and not allow them to be accidently be changed by pressing an external button.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have rooted my HCL V1 tab and Installed "No Frill CPU Control" to use build-in governors.After a day I found that If I used to reboot the device, the max frequency is set to 800 MHz rather the 1 GHz.
I don't know why it's is happening. As I had not flashed anything till yet and had only just rooted the device since i bought it.
I had also reset the device to factory setting but won't work.So after reading so many threads I found the below things:
If I check my device:
Then the max speed at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq
is == 1000000
But if I check this:
max speed at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
then the value is 800000
for a while if I change this scaling to 1000000 then the device shows that its 1 GHz. But Now If I again reboot the device then check again and found that it's again 800MHz and the scaling value is again set to 800000.

1) I can't seem to find any settings that allow me to check talk time, number of SMS sent, amount of data used, etc.? I need to keep track as my plan is not unlimited.
2) Is there any way I can stop the phone from accessing GPRS/HSPA from my provider? Once again, it is cos of my very limited data plan (only 20mb per month), so I would want to control the usage. I notice that when the phone is not on WiFi it will automatically connects to GPRS/HSPA and there is still data transfer even when the phone is on standby mode!
i was wondering if there is a mod for controlling the camera focus manually using some keys, eg: volume up/down, because the AF always gets wrong for my macro shots..

View 3 Replies View Relatedi heard of an app for windows7 phones called "Xbox Companion app => [URL] which is able to control the xbox remote with your phone.
Could that be ported to android? Or is there a port?
1 - Any good apps for controlling Windows 7 media center? Something like VLCmote, that one works well.
2 - Any way to delete "remembered" words? For example, when I text people and I type "You?" it always defaults to "Yiy?" instead. It's really annoying!
3 - Is Better Keyboard any good? I love the default qwerty keyboard, but I have a few minor problems with it. The spacebar isn't big enough, I often accidentally hit the period button, for example. Just basically want one that's the same as the default but with a larger spacebar.
One big problem I've noticed is that when you need to have your phone switched off (e.g. on an aircraft, etc.) it's all too easy for the phone to switch itself on whilst in your pocket - the "power on" button just needs the slightest tap and then it springs into life.I know whilst on a plane I could pre-set it to in-flight mode before powering it off, but that's not the point. Like when powering the phone off, there is a delay and a set of menu options. I'd like something similar for powering the phone on - programmable delay and/or combination of pressing say home and the "power on" button.Does anyone know of an app or some code I could run to alter the way the phone behaves ?. Not sure if the only way to add this functionality is part of a flash update as it needs to survive a power off, etc.
