This is a great app, nice work. I have one feature request: allow the user to save a few (maybe three) timer settings. That way I don't have to set the timer again every time I reopen the app.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
I will look into the items blub.

So as a result of the name change, when i search for stopwatch on the android market, I usually show up on the second page. Now I am on the 5th.. :(

I will leave it like that for a day or two, but I may have to rename it if it does not improve.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Hi treesurf, I will be adding that feature in an upcoming release, in the mean time however when you click the reset button it should reset the looping timer / countdown timer to the last value you set.
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
Hi spawn782, just tried v1.0.9. I have all 3 notification boxes checked. Unfortunately, the countdown timer isn't ringing when it should while the screen is off. Sometimes there is a large delay after when it should go off (not a consistent amount, but ranging from 10-35 seconds or so). This happens for all times I leave app in focus, press home, or press back, as long as the screen is off (if it matters, I have been testing with countdown of 15 seconds). However if I turn on the screen or move the phone around a bit (as if awoken by some sensors?) the notification immediately becomes active and the app comes into view. Also if I receive an email or SMS notification shortly before the alarm should ring, it will ring when it should. Seems to be an issue with keeping the process active/awake while the screen is off?

Also, when the app is brought into focus and bypasses the lock screen, as soon as we press back or home to exit, the lockscreen is immediately reactivated, preventing me from doing anything else with my phone without unlocking again. Is there a way to make the app actually unlock the phone? (I think Handcent SMS has this problem as well with the option for SMS popup appearing over the lock screen, but interestingly GOSMS Pro does not have this issue).
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Hi c00ller, thanks for the report. Sorry about the problems :( . I will look into it, but I have the same phone g2 and it works on mine. I'll do some research online and see if I can find anything about what could cause that. Is anyone else having the same issue?

For the second request, I will also look into it to see how I can do this, I know a couple of people use the keyguard disable methods, but this method is now deprecated, but I will figure something out..hopefully.

Any thoughts on the new name? It has definitely affected my search ranking negatively, but I will await until the end of the day to see if it affected my download average also.
[Android Apps and Games] thebeardedchild:
Hey I dunno what your plans for future features are, but I have a couple requests, just for fun :)

1. Can it utilize the phone's 'Alarm volume' instead of/alongside of 'Media volume'? I usually keep my Media volume down so if I accidentally turn music on or play a game at work, no sound comes out. I leave Alarm volume up all the time...

2. Perhaps allow use of custom sounds and let them repeat until the alarm is shut off?

I could just use another timer app, but I like the UI and general look of this one, so hoping to get a couple more features. Plus, I found apps like Stopwatch and Timer to be too buggy, and this one is clean and stable.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
beardedchild custom sounds are already on the todo list. I will look into the volume options as well.
[Android Apps and Games] iv4iv4:
Sweet and simple, just what I needed!
[Android Apps and Games] thebeardedchild:
Thanks for the info, then!
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
thanks iv4iv4 hope you enjoy it, please report any problems that you have so I can fix if needed.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Hi Guys,

v 1.1.0 is out

New in this version

-Updated notification icons to give an estimate of time remaining / elapsed while running. (cooller .. please let me know if this is what you wanted and if you are still having problems with the alarm when the screen is locked)

-Can select music / alarm from phone to act as Alarm tone

-Specify the alarm length

-Email lap Stats.

Additionally I added a donate link to a version on the market, I hope you guys don't mind this, but it is in the menu bar, so its unobtrusive. The donate version is almost the same except with no analytics. You guys have been very helpful thus far, if you want a copy of the donate version please let me know and I will email it to you (no cost) but its more or less the same thing. Just a link for some kind souls to consider donating too.

More updates to come, soon.
[Android Apps and Games] blub-blub:
Hi spawn,

here's the report to your newest version:

first, I get an fc if there is no alarm tone set. In that case the app just should use the one you had before. By the way, what's the name of this sound? Cause after applaying my own tone I can't find it anymore.

Also I would reduce the choosable sounds to the notification sounds not every music file that is on my phone. Maybe the standard ones shown are the notification sounds and by an other option you can choose one of your music files.

if you set the alarm length to let's say 10 sec. after that time the Stop button should disappear automatically and there should be the start and reset buttons again.

and there is no way to remove the previously set alarm lenght anymore. So no chance of getting a neverending alarm back.

I also tried the new notification options again:

This time sadly none of them worked. So even the bring to front option had no effect. It did disable the widgetlocker lockscrren, but then there was the stock lockscreen visible instead. But this might be due to widgetlocker. So if it works by others with the stock lockscreen only then it's ok for me by now. widgetlocker support should be at the end of your list.

the lap stats problem still persists

also another member mentioned a feature I'd support:

have an option to set a default tab for startup + an option to remember the last opened tap

and remember the last set timer in both countdown modes. don't reset them to zero.

If you plan to add more options in the future maybe it is worth thinking about grouping the options. So if you go to settings you have there general, notification, ... and in there the different options.

The Donate button is no problem for me. But you could think about removing the set timer button in countdown options. It's not really needed and by this there would be the same manustructure throughout your whole app.

THX anyway for your hard effort and the regular updates.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Thanks again, on my phone it plays the default song when no alarm is set, I will look into the problems described.

-Add the option for never ending alarm

-update buttons when alarm is stopped on its own

-fix lapstats on back screen

-reset timers to previous set timers.

-grouping options

thanks blub
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Hi Blub, I forgot to mention something, when you get the force close next time, can you report the error via android market? That way I would be able to trace the error as its not happening on my phone.

Thanks very much

Edit: Sorry Blub, I just got the error also..
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Once again, blub thanks for that report, I got the FC fixed, I think!!!

I will get the other errors a bit later, but I think thee most important thing was seeing about the FC.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Can any of you confirm if the force close issue is resolved on 1.1.1? I got a response from another person about the force close, but I think it might be in version 1.1.0
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
Hello spawn782.

-Unfortunately the delay when the countdown timer ends while the screen is off is still occurring on my phone. The delay ranges between a few seconds up to 25 seconds.

-I have all of the Focus on Alarm settings active and unfortunately the screen does not turn back on upon alarm when the app is left in focus before screen is turned off. If I press the home button or back then turn the screen off, the screen will turn on when countdown is done.

-Regarding the new notification icons, I am glad you are developing this! I like the simplistic and very readable icon design. I see some issues with it, however:

1) When it begins, it always shows the 01 Min next to Android Stopwatch & Timer is Running, and then refreshes with the appropriate icon... I think this is a mistake, how about just show the generic timer icon with no number first, then when it shows the icon only, THEN show the time left icon with number.

2) I noticed if the timer is less than 1 hour, the notification icon updates every 5 minutes. Could this be reduced to one icon every minute? Sorry to keep mentioning UltraChron, but that app does this (and even shows a green pie chart behind it which updates every 15 seconds, but I think that is unnecessary) and it is a wonderful feature.

-I noticed that in all modes, pressing the Reset button has a "pressed-in" image as feedback that we are pressing the button. But, there is no some image for any of the other buttons: Start, Lap, Stop, Set, Cancel, etc. I think it will appear overall more polished if all buttons look and act like the current Reset button.

-I also noticed that with haptic feedback enabled, the vibration occurs upon finger release. I remember seeing a CyanogenMod commit for the dialer app that changed their behavior to vibration upon finger-press of numbers, resulting in better perceived responsiveness. I think your app can benefit from this change as well.

Keep up the good work, spawn!
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Thanks cooller I dont mind you mentioning ultrachron, and I am glad for all the feedback from both you and blub-blub, usually I spend a couple of hours at a time making changes and as I so close to the project I guess I miss some of these errors, so I appreciate your feedback and pointing out problems.
[Android Apps and Games] blub-blub:
I'm sorry, but I can't test the fc issue, as there's no way of getting no alarm sound back again :p

Another little thing I discovered. If I use the stopwatch, close the app without resetting the timer and open the app again the last time is displayed again. But the laps saved the last time are not displayed anymore. So either I would display the last time + the last laps or in stopwatch mode don't show the last time. I think in this mode it is not as necessary as in the other modes.
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
Blub, the vibrate only mode does not work after you set a custom alarm?

Lol, it seems the more features I try to add, the more things I end up breaking :)
[Android Apps and Games] blub-blub:
No, sorry, this was a misunderstanding.

The vibrate only mode works well. The other new notification stuff does not work at all.

So vibrate mode works but haptic feedback doesn't
[Android Apps and Games] spawn782:
blub I sent you a PM, can you check it and let me know.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGiTY:
I have VEGAn-Tab 5.1.1 (Froyo ROM) installed and when playing (or accessing) files on a microSD card it mysteriously deletes all the files in the folder. Is there another Froyo custom ROM (I need true hardware acceleration) that DOES NOT have the deleting file problem like VEGAn-Tab?

Thanks in advance
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
Yes, ALL OF THEM, as long as you have an empty file called .nomedia in the root of the card...(use notepad++ to create a file don't enter any text into it, and save it to the SD card as .nomedia)

google "Gtablet for Dummies" And read everythign you can, he cover's just about everything you need to know about our finicky device.

edit: you can also use root explorer to creat the file directly on the device
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGiTY:
you gotta be ishing me! that's the fix!?!!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGiTY:
Any ideas why .nomedia is needed?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
always has been...has always worked fine for me on BC, Vegantab 5.1.1, Calk/Clem. Of course, I took it a step farther and put the file in the root, and evey subdirectory as well...It takes up no space, so why the hell not, right?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiGiTY:
thank goodness its just video files

[T-Mobile LG G2x] propain4444:
Yup - Read that. There is one additional ROM that is not in that list, which i personally prefer.

In the Dev forum, Xboarders has posted a GB OTA ROM that has been rooted - other than that, it is purely stock. If you don't want to run a ROM that has had many changes made (and requires it be updated quite frequently), i would suggest flashing this once you have clockwork mod installed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Georican:
im so sorry can you dumb that a bit more...im sorry again
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Correct. Follow the instructions for the one click nvflash tool to flash clockworkmod recovery and then flash whichever rom you want. If you want the stock GB rom there is a pre rooted version of it in the development section that you can flash once you get recovery flashed to your phone properly.

G2X CM7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] darkanubispr:
Geovanny he's correct follow the instructions to install clockwork
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kdjay:
1. Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. Instructions found in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847

2. Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery by turning off your phone and turning it on with the volume down and power button held down until you see the clockworkmod recovery boot screen.

3. Install the zip found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179748

4. You are now rooted with the stock GB rom.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Why did you try superoneclick if you already knew it doesn't work and we already told you it wouldnt work?

Nvflash clockwork mod recovery using the one click tool. Boot into recovery. Wipe data, wipe dalvik cache. Flash rom of choice. Fix permisssions. Reboot. That's it.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
Dude listen to phburks for some reason u don't have to actually use the root tool, y? I have no clue but its cool and I wonder if we could have done it all along lol so basically u have to use nvflash it is a tool to flash clockworkmod, and it is in superoneclick form so it should be super easy just do what it says install it and u will have recovery, now your probably thinking why can't I just install rom manager? Well u could but with the g2x its what we call a fake flash, basically if u installed a wrong file or something like that And u went into a bootloop u wouldn't be able to get into recovery, that's y we recommend flashing recovery the nvflash method this way if something bad ever happens u can get into your phone by pressing volume down and power. And fix it, with rom manager u can't do that, now once u have recovery installed on ur phone just download that rom they told u to do (xboarders) then go into recovery after u put xboarders zip on the root of ur sdcard, wipe data, wipe cache, then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache then install the zip, then boot up andyou have a rooted gb rom and will stay rooted
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Georican:
im sorry for your trouble

but i have no skills when it comes to my g2x...is not that i dont listen is that i have no idea what to do exactly thats why i need a step by step of what to do exactly.....is easy for your guys but the nvflash thingy i have no idea where it is you say in superoneclick but i dont kno what to do...do you understand my skills now? there beyond noob and im sorry
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Now I see what the problem is. You're confusing the one click nvflash tool with superoneclick. Superoneclick is used for rooting your stock unrooted rom. Don't worry about superoneclick for now. The one click nvflash tool installs clockworkmod recovery the proper way onto the G2X. It can be found with instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056847

Use it to flash recovery and then you can boot into recovery and flash your rom of choice.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Sarchie1982:
Hey Sarni84,

Just curious what wiping the dalvik cache does in the advanced settings in CWM? I have not seen that on any of the instructions on the developers threads when installing a new rom
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Georican:
ok but before i do anything of this my phone is not rooted doing all of this will root my phone so i can do a battery calibration??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
The dalvik cache is basically Androids way of optimizing apps so they load faster and your system runs smoother. If you don't clear it when switching to a different rom it can possibly cause issues like boot loops, etc. Not sure if its cleared by clockwork with a data wipe/factory reset so I always clear it through the advanced menu. It doesn't hurt to clear it more than once so I figure better to be sure its cleared.

After you clear it your first reboot can take several minutes depending on how many apps you have installed as it has to rebuild the dalvik cache for all your apps.

G2X CM7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] phburks:
Installing clockworkmod recovery will allow you to flash alternative roms onto your phone. If the rom you flash is rooted then yes you will have root. Most of the custom roms are rooted.

And yes you can do a battery calibration. What problems are you having with your battery?

G2X CM7
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Georican:
ok this is what happen before I had froyo and my battery would last a good 6 hours with heavy usages as in internet gaming alot of text message etc after I updated it to gingerbread my battery lifes has become half of what it was before soooo now doing the same stuff that i did with froyo like internet and gaming etc with GB now i get only 3 hours before my battery before it dies....this is why i want to root my phone and do the battery calibration because i need my phone to last me those good 6 hours because of my work and i cant always have a phone charger with me lol......and lets see if im on facebook for two minutes the % of my batery decrease by 2% for just bein on facebook mobile for two minutes....any ideas??

[General Questions and Answers] jakis39:
Hey, I'm sorry if there's a similar thread floating around somewhere, but I searched as best as I could from my phone...

Anyway, I recently received a free ipad 2, and as I expected, I hate it. I plan to sell it ASAP. So I'm faced with the decision of simply keeping the money, or getting an android tablet in it's wake. From what I've read, there don't seem to be very many apps for tablets, and really, how useful are tablets in the first place? Considering that I'm a university student with a brand new gaming laptop, the only real use I can think of for a tablet is for reading textbooks/studying notes, etc. On top of that, I have a Moto Atrix, so an android tablet seems kinda redundant...

So am I missing something? Does anyone have an android tablet and want to defend the purpose of owning one? Are there decent games at least? Or should I just pocket the ~$500 I'll get for the ipad?

Thanks and again, I apologize if I'm in the wrong place or reposting :)
[General Questions and Answers] Persona+:
I would say no. if an atrix tab-dock comes to market reconsider but it sounds like you would regret a tablet.

Trust me d-..-b im from the webs
[General Questions and Answers] Gusar321:
I'd keep the money. Like you said, you have an Atrix and a laptop. Me, I have a Defy and a netbook. I love the netbook despite it's ****ty hardware. And I would take a netbook over a tablet every time.
