View 1 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Unique Uses For Locale - Turning The Ringer Down - Turning GPS/Bluetooth/wifi
Nov 17, 2009I see another thread on Locale, but it seems to be focused on it technical shortcomings. I thought a thread about how people are using this app would be helpful.
Now... I use Locale for the following:
- Turning the ringer down when I get to work (obviouse one)
- Turning GPS/Bluetooth/wifi on when I plug it in the phone (think car dock)
- Turn on Wifi when I get near my known hot spots.
- Turn off GPS/Bluetooth/wifi off and turn down brightness when my battery is low.
And the last one is a good one for me...
- I have a GV number. When I call my phone from that number, it turns the ringer volume all the way up and it turns on wifi and GPS. This is my "lost phone aid". It turns on the locating features so I can see where the phone is using iGoogle and Latitude, and I can hear the phone if it is "in the cushions" on vibrate.
Anyone else get creative with Locale?

HTC Incredible :: Shutting Down And Not Turning Back On1
Jun 11, 2010Ok, this is really strange about 3 days ago my Incredible would just randomly turn off (the battery wasn't even close to being an issue.) When I tried to turn the power on the phone would not respond at all. If I take the battery out and put it back in, the phone will boot just fine....This has happened 4 or 5 times in the last 3 days. Additionally today for some other strange reason I was on a call and the phone randomly would end the call. I wasn't hitting the end key on accident I had the phone on speaker, so I am not sure if its a related issue.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHTC EVO 4G :: Unable To Pair To Any Bluetooth Devices / After Turning Radio Back On
Aug 28, 2010I just got my Evo yesterday, and so far everything has been great! I did most of the suggestions in the battery fix threads, and I managed to only drop to about 60% battery after 24 hours, even with decent usage. The problem that I discovered today was that I seem to be unable to pair to any Bluetooth devices after turning the radio back on (first time trying to pair). When I turn everything on, I simply can't see anything when I search for devices. I put the earpiece that I'm trying to link to in discovery mode, and the phone never sees it. Neither does it see the printer Bluetooth interface or the PC Bluetooth. The printer, at least, should be always discoverable.Finally, I tried linking to my wife's phone, and it could neither see her phone when I set it to discoverable, nor could her phone see mine when I made it discoverable.It looks to me as if my Bluetooth radio is completely non-functional, but does anyone know if there may be something simple that I'm missing? A hidden setting or a Bluetooth diagnostic test that I could run (loopback or other)? Does anyone know if the Bluetooth module is integrated on the main PCA or is a add-on module that might be disconnected?

View 6 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Turning Off Screen
May 19, 2010I'm writing a program that processes SensorEvents.It needs to keep running and keep processing events even when the user isn't directly working with their phone (i.e. when it's just sitting in their pocket).To make that work,I need to prevent the phone from turning off.On the other hand,I don't want to waste power unnecessarily, so I don't want to prevent the screen from turning off.Looking at the documentation, it seems that a WakeLock of type PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK should do exactly what I want. But it doesn't work: as soon as the screen turns off, my program stops running (or at least onSensorChanged() stops getting called).If I instead use a lock of type SCREEN_DIM_WAKE_LOCK, everything works as expected and my program keeps running.But then the screen stays on (although dimmed), which is far from ideal.

Nov 3, 2010I don't think this has happened every time, but I've noticed that when I use navigation the phone continues to think its in the dock and will open up car home days after I've used it. It will randomly open up the car home screen, most recently it did this after ending a call, and the speakerphone will turn on whenever there's a call because I have the car dock speakerphone app. A battery pull seems to work some of the time but not all of the time, and really, I don't want to have to pull the battery every time I used navigation.Has anyone else had this problem? Any thoughts?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Wi-Fi Keeps Turning On And Locale Isn't Working
Jun 16, 2010I've already read the issues with Locale, and that's sad, because I love the concept of the app. Even before I bought a smartphone and knew about Locale, I wished the existence of such a thing would exist. Hence my excitement when I got it was off the charts, but now, not so much. The situations aren't enabling and it's the same 'ole story of "Defaults" dicking everything up.
Can someone please make a Locale that works? (rhetorical question...).
Anyways, another frustration I've come across is that my Wi-Fi keeps turning on. Does anyone know what setting is causing this? I'm about to do a hard reset again and just say screw it.
