Hi guys,

I wrote this app to attach an arbitrary note to a location. It works by letting you know when you're close to a note that you made.

It's got inbuilt routing, proximity alerts and much more. Let me know what you think.

going to try it now :) i'm happy that am number 51 who gonna download this app that look wonderful :) keep it up mate :)
[Android Apps and Games] gregb7677:
Saw the feature and going to give it a shot. Looks like something that will come in very handy!
[Android Apps and Games] TheEditor:
ok, downloaded and installed. How the heck do you use it. I put in notes and nothing else happens. No maps, nothing. LG Ally running 2.2.1
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
1. Press the plus sign to add a note

2. Type it in

3. Now you have a choice of:

A. Press save and the note is saved without a location.

If you chose to save the note, you'll land on the notes list.

B. Press the map icon in the top right to add a location.

If you pressed the map button you'll land on the map page.

- Press the location reticle top right to locate yourself

or

- Type an address and press Go2Address

4. Now press Attach2Note and you'll land on the note page.

5. Tap save to confirm and your done!!

I hope the UI is not confusing to navigate. I was worried it maybe, although after a bit of use I find it like a pattern to use. Something like this to make a note for my location:

3 x touch top right

touch Attach2Note

type note

touch save, all done.
[Android Apps and Games] TheEditor:
Ok, now it makes sense. The one thing I would add is clicking on a stored note would bring up the Navigation app so you can get driving directions without having to type.
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
It will be available in the next release.
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
New Release pushed to the market with Navigation integrated ;-)
[Android Apps and Games] ericizzy1:
is there a way to attach a note to an adress of a contact from the phone contact list?
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
At this time there isn't. Although it would not be too hard to implement. My only concern is where to fit it into the UI. Maybe I could add another button into the 2Note screen to pick a contact and that would add their address. I could also add another option to the Go2 map screen to do that. If I did it there, the map could be used to display the location, then you would just attach2note it would do what you're looking for.

I'm currently writing my end of semester university exams and will have more time to work on the app toward the end of next week.
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
New version released is a major update.

I added a new feature to edit a note so now you can change it and even add a different location to it or remove it's current one. Next up is to implement an option to choose between imperial and metric units.
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
Hey folks, just popping in to let you know that I have just dropped a major update. This one has lots of fixes and a new feature; displaying routes from your current location to a note.

Get it from the link in the OP and me me know what you think.
[Android Apps and Games] qubz:
Ok, just pushed another version update to the Market.

U.S. users now have the option to use Miles instead of Kilometres. Colour changes, optimisations and bug fixes are all part of this update. Let me know what you think.
[Android Apps and Games] Mitheor:
It´s looking great =D

It´d be great to have the option to save "favourite locations" and use it instead of the map all the time (maybe with an option when you´re going to attach you current location).

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
So I've got the Dell Venue Pro and almost everything about the phone is phone, I have no issues with wi-fi, i do have carrier signal issues but that's not the phones fault. (i don't think)

What i am missing is a Windows Explorer so I can access the internal files. Now i know this exists for other windows 7 phones but every time I try t find information on it, they all say "for HTC phones only".

Does anyone know of a way to get a "windows explorer" so I can access the internal files, add my own ringtones etc. I don know how to access the read only file viewer, but that is pointless.

thx
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven855:
This is currently not possible. Microsoft has taken a "sandbox" approach to the file system, meaning each Windows Phone 7 program is limited to only it's "space" or "program folder". The file managers that you see use capabilities that come from dll files that the OEM put in there for its own programs (the OEMs get a little more freedom than developers do as far as what they can include in their programs) and only some OEMs have this. So for now, you are out of luck (believe me, I want this too).

Microsoft may add this in the future, but this will not be present in Mango when it comes out. If you are still intent on finding a file manager for your WP7 device, do your homework, but it is likely that you will not find one. As for custom ringtones, Microsoft is going to add this capability with Mango.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven855:
So the a file explorer for Dell Venue Pro does exist. I was not aware that the DVP had the capabilities and said you MIGHT be able to find one. However, what I said is still true: any file managers use capabilities that come from dll files that the OEM puts in there for it's own programs and that not all devices have this capability
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
Thank you, But are the instructions you described in the link, for a read only viewer not accessible in other fashions?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
Any updates on this?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
So it's been a few months and mango has give us the ability to give specific ringers to friends.

Well here is the dilema. With the DVP we stall can't upload MP3 files into the neccessary directories because we still can't access the file structure, well i mean we have the idiotic "read only" version but still no way to dump files into the DVP.

Has anyone foud a way around this yet or do I buy and HD7 just so I can do this?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
To be quite honest, you are always better off buying HTC because there is so much more "hackable" support than on something from Dell. More people are buying HTC products, and because HTC provides nearly unparalleled support for their devices compared to other companies, you get a larger base of people hacking their HTC devices, and in a much faster time frame.

Bottom line is, if you are looking to bring out the best in your phone through a community like XDA, you should look into buying an HTC device.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
To be honest I normally do. I've been buying HTC products since they were still UT Starcom.(still have my 6700 reprogrammed as a remote for a pc connected to my 55" LCD) But they don't currently have a WIN7 phone that has a physical keyboard (except the CDMA one on sprint which is not transferable to different networks) so I decided to go with the DVP.

If HTC would give me a physical keyboard i'd drop the dvp like a bad habit, but as it sits it seems I'm the odd man out in disliking typing on a physical screen and they don't really make products for odd men out.

The reason I originally re-posted on this thread was i was loading up the OS on a BB the other day and even RIM has a "file explorer" now so i thought I would double check on this.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ttblondey:
You're right,

100% hackable
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
Truth be told, I actually love the DVP hardware. It looks sleek, and after playing with one at a Microsoft Store, I'd love to have one in my hands. The lack of support for the device on places like XDA though (and even from Dell itself) makes me think twice though. Its not a bad phone for someone who doesn't care about hackability though, so I may end up getting it for my other half.

The issue with the file manager is not so much related to hardware as it is Windows Phone 7. Windows Phone 7 is not a BlackBerry, nor is it Windows Mobile or Android. Its design is meant to take you out of the whole "file explorer" and "task manager" thing that we're all really used to. You shouldn't need either one, and if you are looking for it, then you aren't using Windows Phone 7 as it was intended, and if you can't get past that, then you would probably be better off on Android (but not BlackBerry, lol).

That being said, have you given yourself time to adjust to the software keyboard on Windows Phone 7? I used to be in the whole "hardware keyboard or nothing" boat, but once I gave the software keyboard on Windows Phone 7 a chance, it very quickly grew on me, and it is by far the best software keyboard I've used (especially coming from Android, blegh).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slight22:
That is part of why i bought it, powerful and sleek, and though i did see that there was little support I was deluding myself into thinking that wouldn't be that big of a deal because in time with how sexy this phone is, people will buy it and support will grow. 2 phones and 4 months later have proven me wrong :( The phone is not HTC in it's popularity. And actually thats my plan. I'm waiting on the new phones from MS to see what they will be like and upgrade to them. Just wish they would get them out quicker. If they come out any time soon i'll probably do the same and loan my phone to my other half. Better than tossing a beautiful piece of tech in a drawer.

It's not that it's that simple things like using custom ring tones for people and only being allowed to select from the dozen that come with the phone. If i had the file explorer i could put the ringers I personally make into the folder and just go on. I'm an IT geek by trade i've never used a phone as it was intended lol. Like i said my old UTC starcom 6700 is a remote control lol. But seriously I don't have an issue cracking into the software if it gets me what i want. I use to have to delete database files in the Moto razr vc3 before Motorola released the phone tools. I just need the functionality of the file explorer for what i want to do.

I was figuring I was going to have to only because no one was making keyboards anymore, even to the point i was considering android... :(

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cboy82:
nope it was running perfect all i done was changed over sd cards just boot loops without card too
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
I think you need to unmount the external SD before removing it...try going into fastboot and running the adb commands for mounting the SD card again, they can be found in several of the guides.

Remember that your Xoom will not view the external SD card as anything but part of the memory...the /external directory to be exact. When you connect to your PC you only see the Xoom and you need to navigate to storage/extrnal....you don't get seperate explorer windows for the internal and for the external SD as you do with most phones.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] uptheironsrafi:
Hey All,

My Milestone running MIUI 1.6.4 doesnt go to sleep when I turn the screen off. This is leading to poor dormant battery life. The battery drops by about 10 percent for every 1 hr, when the phone is not in use(ironic, cos when the device is actively used, MIUI seems to have the best battery life). I checked the built in battery usage chart, and the thread that keeps the device awake is Android System itself. Is this a known issue? and are there any solutions available?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] holmesdx:
Had same problem!

Had exactly same problem a couple of months back and posted question here but no response.

I was able to initiate deep sleep but had to do various things such as reboot time after time until successful, open up a variety of apps, use a task killer, etc., to try and resolve problem.

I was using CM 6.0 initially and even updated to the latest update of that build by wiping everything but all to no avail. I was beginning to think that it was a hardware problem when I flashed an entirely different rom - MIUI 1.2.25 and hey presto problem resolved.

I suggest that you may have to do likewise and try another rom entirely. BTW the battery life of 1.2.25 is very good indeed. I also recommend using CPU Spy found in the market and/or CPU Stats found in the Themes/Apps section of this forum to monitor deep sleep status.

Hope this helps

[Focus General] jaraya13:
I just plugged my Focus to my laptop and after a while when I was going to make a call I noticed it was dead. Tried pulling the battery out and then putting it back on and nothing, what happens is that it vibrates more than the usual when I try to turn the phone on, but it is still dead.

Then I took the battery out again, then put it back on, tried the 3 button hard reset and the screen showed a lot of blue lines in the center of the screen and you can see the SAMSUNG logo but not so clearly.

While I was trying everything to solve the issue, I noticed a strange smell coming from the battery and the pins where the charge goes through the phone. But just the smell, no liquid or something similar.

I am in Costa Rica, so I can't take it to an ATT store. Any suggestions? Someone with a similar problem?
[Focus General] LS1Jabroni:
I am one of the few other blessed individuals to have my Focus go haywire and stop working. Only difference is mine would do random hard resets, and then eventually it stopped loading into the phone and stuck on the Samsung logo with crazy vibrations going on. I just sent my phone to the Samsung repair center last week.

At this point, you may want to just call up Samsung directly and talk to them about it. More than likely it will be covered under the manufacturers warranty.

1-800-SAMSUNG (726-7864)

Since you’re in Costa Rica I’m not sure how they would handle it, so I can’t help you there.
[Focus General] jaraya13:
Thanks for the info. Yes my Focus was working great, I bought it like 6 months ago and not a single issue until yesterday.

I am not sure if I am covered by any warranty, because I bought it through eBay, so I think not even Samsung directly is covering me...

If the date of manufacture is less than a year then just call them up and try. I wouldnt mention ebay though.

I actually traded my Samsung Captivate with someone for their Focus on Craigslist. I just sent in my Focus last week to the repair center, and apparently it's already ready, and most importantly covered. I think the end of August marks the one year mark of the Manufacturer’s warranty just an FYI.

Just like jaraya13 said below... do not mention Ebay. Just say you received the phone as a gift. I told them my family member could not find the receipt since they purchased the phone 8 months ago :)

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Kulik:
From what i've seen, all other roms are practically customized versions of minicm7 built on 2.0.1. So there's not much significant difference like in performance or drivers. It's only up to your preferences, which apps you want pre-installed, if you use corner style or your own launcher... I personally don't use 2.3.4, because there are way too many bugs compared to 2.2.1... & I'm not a tester kind of guy - i like to use the full potential of a device, not test & report bugs:) But what i liked about minicm7 is that you can register & receive notifications about new versions & updates. This is quite good when there are still bugs waiting to get fixed, so immediately after new release, you're notified. I don't know if this feature is also present in other roms.
