New update to social plugin:

fixed display of quick action (now centered in view with fixed size)

added capability to open links

changed logic to open post on facebook page rather than user account

added comment count, like count to facebook rows

links are now truncated to 50 characters

fixed bug with adding new post/tweet would not always work

Quick link: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabrsocial-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.apk

That should be all the features this module will need before launch.

There is still some polish to do (for example some Facebook events are shown incorrectly or not shown at all etc) so I am changing its status to release candidate.

If you are using it at the moment, how is the performance? Anything major missing?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Haven't got the latest update for the social module, but certainly loving it so far.. just having a mixed agenda/social widget in one place is cool.. and I don't even think there's a decent facebook widget that gives the kind of at-a-glance info for tablets out there is there?

Performance doesn't seem laggy or slow in any way (but then I've got my update interval set to quite long, or I do a manual refresh when I'm looking stuff up)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
RE: facebook support, I think there are a few (pure messenger, Colorize?, Android Pro Widgets?).
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
oh cool.. liking the combined-ness of Tabr soar :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
More updates!

Changed the default skin, tabs are now.... tabs (instead of buttons), label is disable-able in settings

Fixed change icon dialog

Fixed Agenda module auto update, just need to access the settings and enable this function for the service to start up

Fixed social update function

New "Notifier" feature which shows a number of new rows on background tabs if auto update is enabled and the module supports it (see screenshot on site)

New bookmarks module now available

Grab it on the site in the OP.

I hope to release it to the market by early next week, just working on few bits of polish to add...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Still looks great. Although I did have to re-login to Facebook on the social module after I'd installed the new .apks (is that likely to be the case in the released version as new updates become available?)

Also, I know you give a warning about possible visual errors when switching views on each module (list, grid etc.) - will you be restricting the views on your own developed modules? Just wondering because bookmarks (IMHO) doesn't display very well in the list or grid views for example..

Other than that.. keep it up mate - this is awesome stuff!! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Facebook login thing might have been due to the upgrade that lets you have different tabs with different social networks on them (this would have lost all your previous data).

You should not have to do that normally, however in the next update you will have to uninstall the bookmark and contact modules as they are now built in to the main Tabr application.

No, I don't see the point in artificially restricting the functionality, especially when it will take a significant amount of work to do so.

Also some views (such as stack view for most modules) will look a little nicer once I spend some time filling out the data in the module (for instance I'm hoping to show a summary of the days events for headers in agenda stack, then show more details about the event on each event "page").
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
This app is now in the "polish for market open beta" stage.

Unfortunately the new version requires a full uninstall/reinstall as it is properly signed and you can't upgrade from debug signature to real official.

You will also have to uninstall Contacts and Bookmarks as they are bundled with the main application now.

Let me know if you think there is anything obvious missing in the main app (social and agenda aren't considered complete yet) otherwise expect it on the market in a few days!

Tell your friends! :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
so whens it coming to the market then? Looking forward to this :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Tomorrow!

Have been cleaning up the main app and the modules today.

Agenda and Twitter are still in need of a lot of work but will put them on the market anyway!

First release will be an open beta so you can get all the features for free until I fix up all the remaining glitches.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Tabr is now on the market https://market.android.com/details?id=com.everybodyallthetime.android.tabr

Updating the OP...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Great news! Will download this evening and take it for a spin! Looking forward to it and well done :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Nice!

You may have to un-install and re-install.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
up and running!

On a side note.. There's a pretty decent free UK & World news widget by a guy called Jim Blackler.. I don't think he's updated it for honeycomb (there seems to be a refresh issue) , but it would be a perfect candidate to be Tabr-fied :D doesn't seem to be any contact details for him though.. shame..
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Yeh, I need something that is either open source so I can modify it, or something that is popular with an API.

FYI: http://jimblackler.net/blog/
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Guess I could try posting a comment on that blog.. see if I can nudge him into life ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] evilantal:
Hi there, looking awesome...

Some small requests though. In the widget settings it's possible to adjust the background color and transparency as well as those for the tabs.

I would also like to be able to adjust the color and transparency for the fields on which the agenda items reside (now an opaque white rectangle).

The second thing: would it be possible to display the agenda item name and appointment time on one line. That way, a lot more appointments would be visible at one time.

Thanks for the great widget!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
This is already possible!

Adjust widget settings->override background color then tap background color and move the transparency slider all the way right

I knew this would come up eventually, I will add the override for this one soon!

That is easy enough to do, however I might take the time to extend this idea to allow ordering of all the event elements (time, location, description etc) rather than the quick fix preference to remove the line break. I will put this in the soon to eventually basket unless you have a good idea how to do it? (I'm thinking a combination of the sort screen, like rearrange tabs, and some way to determine where line breaks would go)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Reeonimus:
I just found this and I love the idea. The first problem i'm running into that you can hopefully help with is that it's not displaying my actual bookmarks from the stock browser on Honeycomb. It's displaying som random google searches I made from a couple days ago and also some pages I haven't viewed in months.

Where is it pulling the bookmarks from?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
I love this idea and seems to work pretty good now if only you can do this on my phone!

Edit

I think adding email would be nice other than that nothing else really jumps to mind

And where is says Facebook under the tabs make that so when you tap it it will open what ever facebook app you want and same with twitter
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Comes from the stock browser.

To be honest i didnt test the bookmarks very thoroughly, i will take another look and fix it up.

@ellingsoc it is coming to phones! I rewrote the settings to work on small screens, i just need to fix up some layout issues.

I am hoping to support icecream sandwich out of the box but that depends on the the sdk.

Email will depend on the gmail api, i keep reading about how google closed that up recently?

Facebook/twitter click is coming very soon, just need to add a preference for you to choose the app you want to open.

Also going to start work on an application module....
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
Great good to hear love the app so far can't wait to test it out on my phone
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Obligatory teaser image:

@Reeonimus I tested the bookmarks and they function correctly on my device. Is there any pattern to the links it shows? The bookmark SDK in Android also has browser history so it is possible there is some mixup going on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Reeonimus:
You were right it was showing my history rather than my bookmarks. After I cleared my history and cache in the stock browser and refreshed the bookmarks on Tabr it correctly showed my bookmarks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Strange that it would show your history, must have had something to do with the cache?

Let me know if you have any other troubles with it. I might add some options eventually for people who want show history etc, or even support for popular browser/bookmarks apps (dolphin?)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
New dev versions of main app, social and agenda module available.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabrsocial-zipped.apk

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/agendamodule-zipped.apk

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabr-zipped.apk

Changes to social:

Added a "loading" row when the widget is fetching tweets from the provider (Facebook/Twitter)

Changes to agenda:

Added a "Quick action" click action so you can access edit/view/open actions directly from any event or task (enable this in agenda settings->click actions), see screenshot

Support for Ultimate todo, Pocket Informant tasks and Task Sync exchange applications (require dev versions of these apps for it to work, but I think PI is on the market?)

Changes to main application:

Rewrote settings to support small screens in preparation for ICS

Added in built crash reporting

Potentially fixed the problem where the widget contents would not refresh after you changed module settings or layout type for a module (now refreshes twice sometimes when you exit settings)

If anyone has time to test any of these I would be appreciative, I expect to publish them to market Monday once I add a few of the requested features.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
I get a parse error when trying to install on my phone on the with the tabr apk and the social apk
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Not ready for phones yet!

Still have a bit of work todo before that is ready for prime time.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
Ahhh I saw something for smaller screens so figured I would give it a try

Edit

Working better on my transformer nice update
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
still looking good! Have been spreading the good word :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
New version of Tabr (0.9.3) is now on the market.

Mostly bug fixes and the settings rewrite, but I also added the row background color overrides for @evilantal

Will update Agenda/Social tomorrow after I add the title click action settings.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] evilantal:
Thanks!

Now it will fit in better with my minimalistic style.....

Keep up the good work!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] evilantal:
Tried out the new version... thanks for the row color override.

Only problem is....

The text color for everything but the Agenda is default black. When I now make the row background a dark color to fit with my homescreen style, I can't read the text anymore as it is then black on black.

Would you consider adding a color picker for the text font?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Yep, it is coming soon!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] RaiMX:
Gmail module please!!! with ability to have different gmail accounts on each tab, thanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
I will take a look at Gmail soon, though in the sort term it may require root as Google locked down the Gmail content provider recently
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
New dev version has text color overrides and some settings bug fixes, will be on the market today or tomorrow: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabr-zipped.apk

Also, try the very early alpha of the apps module which allows you to choose a custom list of apps to show in a tab. A few functions are not wired up properly (e.g. re arrange apps, change app icon, possibly custom actions etc) and updates may delete your selected apps so don't spend too much time customizing your list!

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabrapps-0.9.0-SNAPSHOT.apk
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
That's a pain for sure.. would GMail support be possible via Exchange support (a la the Asus email app and unread count widget) ? Or is that a non starter for other reasons?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] bruuuno:
I've finally found how to view the Google Tasks in the Agenda tab..in the app description or here in the forum there isn't an how to do it..

I'm posting the solution here so someone else with the same issue could solve it..

Tabr doesn't manage the tasks from Google Task directly..so you have to install another todo app that have a google synchronization..

So I've installed Astrid Task/Todo List app and then Tabr managed the import from there..now is showing the todo list from google task..

I don't know if other apps would to the same as astrid but in this way worked like a charm ;)..
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Thanks for the comment bruuuno, I need to add a popup in the Agenda module about this, I will also update the market description.

There is a few apps that the widget supports including dato gtask, ssi gtask, gto, due today...
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
Like the app but facebook and twitter are flaky at updating and have to hit refresh button alot to get them to show otherwise I would use over android pro widgets
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Thanks for the feedback.

Is the social module problem with fetching events from the server, or with data loading onto the widget?

I assume you have enabled auto refresh for social?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
It seems like a both if I have the twitter one open I have to hit refresh then it shows now if I switch to the facebook one when it shows a counter sometimes it's there others I have to hit refresh but if I wait for a bit it will refresh but who wants to wait. And it goes both ways as well. Yes I have auto update enabled. Hope that helps
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Thanks for the info, I will give this scenario a run at my end and do some optimizations
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
Any update on this?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
sorry for the delay,, the pending release of icecream sandwich has been taking up all my time. I have an idea about this issue, will test it later today
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
Not a problem just checking in
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
I have actually been running this setup on my device, and it seems to be working as expected.

One social tab with twitter

One social tab with Facebook

Turn off tab screen for a while

Come back and wake it up, the Facebook feed is showing

Tap the twitter tab and it automatically loads the cached data and starts checking for updates

If there is updates it refreshes it self after update.

Can you please confirm where you are experiencing the blank screens?
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
New dev version works properly with Icecream Sandwich phones: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21587776/tabr-zipped.apk
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] Ellingsoc:
I will try to explain this a bit better maybe. What happens is that when i unlock my tablet after a while the widget has not updated at all even tho its set to auto update. Now if i push the refresh button on Facebook for example it will then say loading please wait. It don't matter how long i wait it will sit there. So i then must hit the refresh button again to get any new posts to show up. So see what you can find. The other thing i see is that if someone puts up a pic or a link to a video you see the link not the preview of that video or picture. So i get alot of post that just say person shared a link (http.....) Anything else you need let me know
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Ah, OK, I thought it was a different problem!

Will try to make the auto update a little more robust (might add something to make sure the device doesn't fall asleep).

Facebook post parsing is a little lame at the moment, will definitely spend some time on that as well!

Thanks again for the feedback.
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] jms_uk:
Updated to the latest RC from the market (main app and agenda).. some slightly odd behavior with it not picking up calendar details properly (calendar colours etc) which was fixed by deleting the tab and re adding.. thought you might want to know unless you can fix or just put it in the upgrade notes in the marketplace :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] fzr-r4:
I love Android Agenda Widget on my Nexus One.

I just moved to an ICS build for it though:

(1) trying to go to Agenda Widget settings crashes the program; it also doesn't show up in my Market; and

(2) Tabr doesn't show in my Market either!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
This should probably be in the Agenda Widget thread. What is the SDK version number of your ROM. If it isn't set to 14+ then you will now be able to download the ICS version of AW.

This could be the same problem! Might want to check with your ROM cooker.

Try the dev versions:

Agenda Widget

Tabr
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] fzr-r4:
Thanks! The SDK version is set to 15 for 4.0.3.

Both of the development versions are working. Tabr looks great. I'm excited to test it out on my phone and my nook color (running a honeycomb build, switching to ICS once it's more complete or I set up a machine and learn to build from source).

I'll get a pro version once I can on the market. Thank you for sharing!
[Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps] roflharrison:
Wonder why they don't show, perhaps it is a region restriction?

[HTC EVO 3D] adianlorenzana:
I was just wondering, how hot is too hot for the battery? Like at what temp does it start to get dangerous ie cause physical damage to the phone
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
i'm trying to remember how hot my EVO got last summer around when i saw that bright spot on the screen issue .. i want to say above 100F i would start paying closer attention.

right now mine is sitting at 88.8F after charging over night. i'll keep watching and see how the temperature ranges. i really haven't paid much attention.

i know gaming can be intensive and run up the temperature. on the CDMA version, a weak signal can also run up the temperature.

i haven't heard too much about over heating issues with this device yet. hopefully they weren't be many issues!

edit: i used the free batterylife widget from the android market to monitor the temperature. idk how *accurate* it is but it seems to function pretty decently over the last few android devices i've owned.
[HTC EVO 3D] cordell12:
I live in Texas and we have this thing they are calling a "Heat Dome" that has been over Texas for quite a while now. 20+ days in a row of 100* degree temps :eek: Anyway, I work outside (god help me) and my 3vo does just fine. I never really looked to see the temps it is reaching, just know that it works just as good as when I am inside. :cool:

On another note I heard on the radio yesterday that obama's hatred of Texas due to its thriving economy and not falling to obama's deliberate destruction of the U.S. Economy, or joining the rest of the U.S. in 18% unemployment that the "Heat Dome" may be created by the government to "punish" Texas for what we are and what we stand for! This Heat Dome has been sitting primarily over Texas the whole time it has been around, makes you wonder. Oh, we also voted for McCain, not that he would have been much better than obama, LOL. 2012 can not come soon enough!!!

/end political rant
[HTC Sensation] rel500:
I have adb installed. HTC sync nor Droid explorer are running. I verify adb works because I can see my device. My problem is that the revolutionary.exe is not detecting my phone. Says waiting for device. Usb debugging turned off. I've been trying for the past 6 hours and no go. I'm coming from a Vibrant where we don't have locked boot loaders n such. Is there another method to achieve s off? The noob guide didn't help me. Hope someone can.
[HTC Sensation] The Janitor Mop:
Usb debugging should be on. There's your problem.
[HTC Sensation] rel500:
Meant to say on.
[HTC Sensation] rel500:
Meant to say on
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Both HTC Sync and Droid Explorer have to be completely uninstalled from your computer to make it work. Also, download and unzip the HTC Naked USB Driver to a folder somewhere on your computer. While the Revolutionary tool runs and says "waiting for device" open device manager. You may see a yellow exclamation point icon with something like "Android Phone" or "Android Composite Device." The actual title escapes my memory, but you get the idea. Update the driver and point it to where you unzipped the USB driver. Restart the computer after you uninstall the HTC Sync, Droid Explorer, and install the USB driver and try the Revolutionary tool again. Let us know what happens.
[HTC Sensation] rel500:
this is what im seeing... gosh i feel noobish
[HTC Sensation] Jimmah555:
Try to update the driver and point it to where you unzipped the new driver. Did you completely uninstall the other software? and you have it in "Charge Only" mode with USB debugging on right?
[HTC Sensation] rel500:
When I tried to update the driver it says Windows found the most current driver or something like that. Also phone is in charge only mode and usb debugging on. :-/Any remedies or such I'm open to hear them. I'm goin to sleep or try. I know its me just don't knw what it is.
