[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
A good while ago, when I got my Xoom I almost finished a barometer app. Unfortunately the project was put away, but inspired by korr92's post today I decided to do some work on the app.

It is in early alpha, and there are still some bugs to iron out (see post below). But, I need feedback, so feel free to try it out.

Beware that I'm planning to release this as a paid app on the Market when (err...if) I finish it. But, it will stay free for a while, and I will post well before an eventual release so that you can download the app for free.

The regular app will update the pressure almost instantly, while the widget will update when the devices wakes up, or every 10 minutes if the device stays awake .

Screenshots:

Download:

Application is attached to this post, and can also be downloaded from here.

Changelog:

2012-01-22:

-Widgets are now available in both 2x2 and 3x3 sizes.

2012-01-17:

-Enabled hardware acceleration and made improvements to the application so that hardware acceleration works as it should

-Reduced size of images used. Smaller APK.

2012-01-16:

-Improved graphics both in application and widget. The barometer now contains text ("Stormy", "Rain", "Change", "Fair" and "Very dry") describing the weather associated with the current pressure.

-Reduced size of APK

-Main application now has a "historic dial", which can mark a previous pressure value. To set it just tap the barometer, and it will be set to the current value. It will be stored until you tap the barometer again.

-Widget will now update every 30 second when the device is awake. It will not update when the device is asleep, unless other applications update. If this happens the barometer widget will also be updated.

Known bugs:

-Sometimes the pressure will be show as zero (the dial points straight up). This is some minor bug that I have yet to track down, where the service that updates the pressure is getting killed before the pressure is received.

Update: I think I have solved this now.

Planned features:

-Set the altitude, as this influences the pressure

-Mark in the barometer the corresponding weather for pressure values (e.g. illustration of a sun when the pressure is high) (DONE)

-More widget sizes (DONE)

-Graphing feature

-Trend

-Pressure reading in text

-Whatever you may suggest :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hiohokaybye:
pretty neat :) gunna check this out :)

great work btw :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Thanks a lot!

Did you experience the bug I listed in the second post? It seems like it is rather inconsistent, and a little harder to track down than I thought.

I will try to get some work done on the app tonight, hopefully accompanied by the upload of a new build.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pesc96:
Theres no Widget
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
That's strange. I did a clean install on my Xoom, and the widget is there. It also works in the phone and the emulator(s). Is the widget missing for anyone else?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nitrox1:
Hope you iron out this, looks like it could be amazing.

Swyped from my tuna surprise with extra back bacon.

Thanks nitrox1!

New update is out now. See changelog in second post :)

I've got the widget on rooted galaxy nexus 4.0.3
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creektrails:
I downloaded it but it says "cannot open file" looks awesome though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dudeimgeorge:
I have the same problem
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] scouter68:
It seems to work. I will have to keep an eye on it for the rest of the week, there are supposed to be some big storms this week.

The widget is very large. It would be nice to have one that is 1x1, maybe a digital readout with a trending arrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mmeidl78:
I'm pretty sure, you must disable "force GPU-Rendering" in your dev-settings like in the other Barometer-App, too :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Hardware acceleration is a good thing, so I have now explicitly enabled hardware acceleration, and made the necessary adjustments to the app so that it works with hardware acceleration. In other words, a new build is out.

Regarding failed downloads: I suspect that the downloads from XDA are not always stable. Have uploaded the build to my Dropbox account as well. Download link can be found in the first post.

Now, off to my day job. Next feature coming up is input of your altitude, so that the barometer is calibrated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Incoe:
Gonna try it. Will report back later this day! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Try downloading from the Dropbox link in the first post. I suspect that XDA attachments are not that reliable.

Smaller widgets are on the planning board. What sizes do you think will work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Michael_:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Hope that's what you wanted to see as well. Now get outside and enjoy the sun, the weather seems to be nice where you are :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -Michael_:
Haha Yeah! Thanks for the app. Looks good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grannypotts:
App works great, but the widget is currently MIA. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Really? It is working for me, and if you look at Michael's post on the previous page it seems to work for him as well.

Has anyone else been unable to find the widget?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrPendulum:
Seems to be working fine here, but I'm in an air conditioned office...

Thank you for this, it's an awesome app. It would be nice if you could do a slightly smaller widget as well though :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
Calibration and smaller widget is the next thing om my todo list. Hopefully I'll have it ready tonight.

It's unfortunate in Android that several widget sizes cannot be combined into one widget. That is, I cant create three widgets, and have them all in the same widget picker in Android - I must create one small, one medium, one large and so on, and these will all have to be shown in the widget picker. What sizes (1x1? 2x2? 3x3? Fullscreen?) and how many widgets do you think I should develop?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dogtag:
Works fine, not so sure about the look though, if you want to sell it as a paid app, make it stand out. (it looks quite tacky)

Thx & goodluck

examples:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hpe:
More designs is in my todo-list :)

I'm busy renovating my apartment atm, so the progress isn't that good. But, I released a new version today with 2x2 and 3x3 widgets. Working on calibration based on altitude now.

This was posted over in the A100 forum.

A couple of apps to dim your screen past default. Easier on the eyes when reading in a low-lit room.

ScreenDim is a paid app.

RootDim is free but must have root.

If you lower your brightness too much and cant get back easily, just reboot.

[Acer Iconia A500] Delo718:
I tried both of these apps, and i was comparing them when i discovered that you can use both apps simultaneously to reach ultra-low screen brightness. I don't know why you would want to go that dim, but try it out it might be useful if you find yourself lost and stranded in the middle of nowhere at night with no phone charger and a low battery :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] legion1911:
"With its massive 5.3” screen, LTE capable speeds and Android 2.3, the ultra portable Samsung Galaxy Note easily extends smartphone capabilities."

Lol... what are LTE capable speeds?

1.4 Ghz Exynos processor. It is a N7000.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] rnewton01:
I believe this is the lte Qualcomm snapdragon version. Same as at&t. Not the n7000.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] gunem:
This isn't a snapdragon in its specs it says 1.4 ghz dual not 1.5 which already been confirmed to be the snapdragon. Reading more into the specs this version of the n7000 will work perfect for those who use T-Mobile/simple mobile 4g/3g speeds. So if you are a T-Mobile costumer and considering getting the sg note att or international this deserve a close look you lose the intergraded home button but keep the 1.4 exynos processor while gaining the 4g speeds
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] umar.ranjha:
Well seems like the pnly difference is the 4 buttons. Everything else matches with international vetsion.

Telus didnt even listed it as LTE phone so fingers crossed for LTE....
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Croak:
No. It's the same SGH-i717 that AT&T is getting, not the GT-N7000. There is no Exynos.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] umar.ranjha:
Well you should check details section. It does say Exynos.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Croak:
And you should realize that cut and paste marketing pages are notoriously inaccurate. Telus is getting the SGH-i717.

I'm planning on buying a higher capacity batter for my DHD: any suggestions? I don't want a bulky external battery, the thing is big enough as it is.

I found this on eBay, but it seems waaay too good to be true.. Is there a risk of it exploding in my pocket, or just of it being really crappy?

Are the Mugen (1500mAh) or Andida (1800mAh) batteries any good?

Any answers will be appreciated ;)

Thanks :)
[Desire HD Accessories] sashank:
From what I've read, the Mugen batteries are good but they don't make too much of a difference in normal usage. I really doubt there can be such a huge jump in mAh without any increase in size as the two batteries suggest. 1500 mAh seems plausible, but 1800 mAh seems very unlikely. The actual capacity will be much less than advertised, hence the not so great performance improvement.

In my opinion, (if you haven't done this already) you'd be better off rooting your phone and installing one of many custom ROMs here which give excellent battery life over the stock ROM. I get around 18 hours of moderate to heavy usage and more than a day of light usage. Also, I keep 2 standard batteries. The battery life offered by that combination is much better than a single higher capacity battery, and the HTC battery costs a lot less too.
[Desire HD Accessories] jeffhui:
I want a higher capacity battery also! any one have suggestions?
[Desire HD Accessories] _david_94:
Thanks for your answer :) I might go for the spare battery, even though I probably won't ever have it on me when I actually need it :P

As you can see from my sig, I have installed RCMix's latest custom ROM, but while it adds lots of great features, my battery life is actually shorter than with stock.
[Desire HD Accessories] sashank:
Yeah I tried RCMix3d Runny 4.0 and found the battery life quite bad too. Even with killersloth's UV scripts and all that. That and average GPS performance (~6 satellites usually, weak lock) were the only problems with it. The RCTweaks are awesome.

For the best battery life and fast GPS lock (~10 satellites strong lock), from my trials, I've found that these ROMs give the best performance -

Of course these aren't the only ones, but I've used these for long and can speak for them.

I keep a spare battery with me at all times. Finally found some use for that small square pocket in my jeans :cool:

It's not too much of a bother once you make it a habit, and it's helped me out in quite a few situations.

[Desire HD Accessories] paul c:
If you're going to buy a replacement battery, get an OEM one (0% improvement over stock :)) or get the Mugen 1500mAh - that may just get you through to the end of the day.

Definitely, install a different ROM, and look at the clockspeed options you're given (or just install OC/UV Beater) You can overclock or underclock, and also play with undervolting, which improves efficiency.

Also consider network management, screen brightness etc -an easy way to do so is to use Juice Defender, though the purists say all their options can be effected manually.

And if all else fails, you can carry a battery pack around http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Trent-D...1OK4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1326811038&sr=8-3 this is 5000mAh, these people produce an 11000mAh version. My 5000mAh pack is great for sticking in the rucksack on a long day out with GPS enabled, cost about GBP20 - of all the options I evaluated, this is best value for money - also no need to switch phone off, vs changing the battery). Their customer service was very responsive when I told them that the charging cable wasn't working
[Desire HD Accessories] bcm5:
Don´t waste your money in chinese batteries.I tried a few myself.If you really need it,the best thing is to buy anther OEM one.
[Desire HD Accessories] dmitryu:
Mugen's 1500 battery shows about 15% better capacity than my almost year-old stock one (1270 vs. 1095mAh, as measured by the battery monitor widget, after its first 4 cycles). Does not look quite like 1500mAh, but I guess the stock one never did register 1320mAh in that measurement either - it's either a systematic error, residual change or something...
[Desire HD Accessories] PaalW:
Or order an extra battery cover and jam a Anker 1900 mAh battery in there :) Works like a charm!

If you are using a case (for example an otterbox or a case from casemate) then this is your best option!

The original htc sensation battery has 1520mAh and costs a lot less than the one from mugen. And i'd say you can trust original htc batteries more than anything found on ebay ;)

I have an (china) battery from ebay with 1600 mAh. the battery life on our phones is really really poor. I heavily used my phone of the day an i only get a battery life from 6-8 hours, and thats really bad. So i found that no battery is even better than the original.
[Desire HD Accessories] chengjie89:
Though Mugen is not a perfect solution, it is better than stock batt.

Don't just go for price when you are buying batteries too, especially those dirt cheap china batteries. I bought a few before, it bloated up after a few months of usage.
[Desire HD Accessories] sheemar:
hi, can some one suggest me(I am heavy user) witch is the best battery for DHD and best place to buy ?

Thanks
[Desire HD Accessories] o4kareg:
Due to DHD specialty, there can be used batteries with the capacity not more than 1500 mAh. All the numbers more than 1500 are either lie, or mean that battery is thicker than DHD body can support.
[Desire HD Accessories] Dlog:
That's why you've got three options:

1) use multiple batteries (not really an option)

2) use an external charger (better, but i don't want to carry around more than the phone)

3) if you use a protective case then get a sensation battery....mines got 1900mAh and fits nicely into my DHD :)
[Desire HD Accessories] jeanal:
You can also use a secour / external battery .You can reload four or five time you phon whit.
[Desire HD Accessories] psychosliver:
I have one extra 1230mAh battery & an Energizer XP2000 Portable charger. But to my opinion, adjusting your phone-charging habits makes all the difference. Anticipate with respect to your day's routine.

Though, I'm looking forward for the GSM version of Motorola Droid Maxx, or for any other that rivals its battery capacity.

p.s. charging extra batteries individual would be nice. I should try modding some usb cable to connect directly to the battery contacts, hmmmm...

Its In the app you buy from the market...just do a search for Franco...

I'm assuming that tint was there when you first bought the phone right? Which means I must really test the phones in the shop for this tint before I buy it.

Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out what exactly this does...or at least what the use cases are of modifying these values.

I bought Franco's app to support him and for hotplug.....but haven't had the courage or motivation to mess with the screen settings.

What's the benefit of messing with these values?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChongoDroid:
+1 if I even set it minus one it'll go green at the lowest brightness.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] franciscofranco:
This is simple: this mod controls the RGB gamma values. If you give it R it will give some extra Red into the scree, G for green and B for blue. You can range between -255 and 255, and with experimentation there's the possibility to get the best color profile. It's as simple as this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] deezid:
But it is not possible to change brighter tones and whites without completely screwing up dark and mid tones. This was possible with voodoo color ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SwiftLegend:
-10,2-2

That was just a random choice, but I plan on testing new things.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beepbloop:
I am also experiencing a green tint when the screen dims (if I lower the green value) I hope this can be fixed because the gamma on my screen is way too high and lowering all the values makes it look much better!

Same issue. Any time I mess with color values the screen goes green on lowest light settings.

Hi Gary, thanks for trying to get to the bottom of this issue. I received my Champagne prime on Dec 24. It originally had firmware v8.8.3.23. I noticed I wasn't getting updates about a day later and have been worried about this ever since. I called Asus support and they were no help. I have manually updated to 8.8.3.29.
