What about a fix?

So I'm convinced there is an issue I don't care about the tests or how someone's PC works or if someones Note is Perfect. What about a fix? Who can we talk to to get this resolved? Know any devs that could or would be willing to help out?

Hi all,

Galaxy S2 (update: also Galaxy S3) has a feature that can read out name of people who are calling you, or who sends you a message, as it happens. It's called Driving Mode and can be accessed through the settings.

Have been looking for a stand alone widget for this for a long time but didn't find any. Hence I made one... a widget that allows you to switch Driving Mode on/off with a touch.

Attached herewith :)

Features -

1. Economic in space - smaller than VLingo driving widget, which takes up 1x3 blocks.

2. As you remove the last instance of the widget, the background service automatically unloads. Does not use up RAM unnecessarily if you don't plan to use it, even if you keep it installed.

3. Does not depend on VLingo Voice Commands, if you uninstall it you can still use this.

v1.2 (2012-07-12) -

Ability to control this with 3rd party apps like Llama using Intents.

New icon.

Download

It is recommended that you download the widget from an appstore like Google Play (links are below), so that you will get the automatic updates.

Google Play - Download free version from Google Play

Google Play (Donate) - Download the donate version from Google Play

Cheers

What's the difference between this and the voice widget which has driving mode on/off?

View attachment 960113

Edit: just re-read your post and noticed you wanted a stand alone widget. Installed your version and it's basic. Just a green light (on/off) which is quite handy and space saving. Especially for me on sslauncher where widgets can be placed anywhere.

Good stuff.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Yes... I uninstalled VLingo (or Voice Commands) since from time to time I would accidentally double tap the home button, and irrespective of the phone being in silent mode, there it would come - speaking aloud "What would you like to do?"

Unfortunately the widget in your screenshot also goes away if I uninstall vlingo. That's when I missed the driving mode widget... Well, not anymore :-)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] aab44:
Thanks, will try....
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sxi200:
Running nicely and found a spot for it in sslauncher. Thanks again!

A newbie question...can this widget be used on CM9? Does this widget request some Samsung framework to work?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] sxi200:
I don't believe it will work on cm9 as the rom doesn't include driving mode.

I have easily installed in my Galaxy S II on other page, because home page is full and there is no space for the tinny green spot.

When driving mode is on, what can I profit ? What's the use of it ?

Many tks. for your efforts.

By the way, will it work on the coming 4.0 ?:confused:

Hi Hirak99,

Great replacement for that oversized Android widget! Thanks!!

A small question, I'm using Llama (location based profile switching) to automatically switch a number of things. I would like to automatically activate the driving mode (when my bluetooth carkit connects).

In order to automate the process Llama "activates" an Android intent.

Therefore I'm looking for the following info regarding your widget:

- Intent send mode: start activity, start service or broadcast?

- package name: com.arnab.drivingmode (?)

- class name: ?

- action: ?

For example: I had an app where only the "action" had to be filled in: "package name".widget.CLICK

If you don't mind I will inform the developer of Llama and maybe he will include the "drivingmode" intent in Llama.

Thanks in advance!

Bart
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
I like the description of Llama, will check it out myself.

Here's the source code I am using myself for the intent to be broadcast -

Intent intent = new Intent(context, DWidget.class);

intent.setAction("_click_handler");

PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(context, 0, intent, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT);

So for Llama, you could try the following values -

1. Intentmode - Broadcast

2. Package - com.arnab.drivingmode

3. Class - N/A (broadcast intents should go to all classes)

4. Action - "_click_handler"

Note that

1) This will only toggle the driving mode. But if this works, I can modify it to listen to other intent actions to definitively turn on or off.

2) This will probably work only when the widget is shown. I have kept a count of number of widgets on display, and made the service unload if no widget is shown to release memory.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Just added new version - will automatically turn on driving mode as you connect to bluetooth taking your idea. You should see a toast confirming it when you connect to bluetooth, only if you are using the widget and the driving mode was off when you connect.

If you use it let me know your feedback :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rcb_biep:
Many thanks!

Llama isn't responding to the command, now I've tried your new version instead.

It work perfectly without Llama!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
I'm glad it helped.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] daviejam:
Just installed this. Great idea! I was going to request the bluetooth feature until I noticed you had already been asked and solved.

Great work and thank you.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] SNDK_ar:
Thanks

Exactly what I want, exactrly how I dream it, simple and usefull.

Good work, recomended.

I don´t know why my dumbs devices always turn off the "Driving mode".

Thansk.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuvinN1:
Thanks mate. Great app. Exactly what I was looking for.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] brandobean:
I noticed the this driving mode widget turn on the phone's ability to announce incoming caller and texted names but doesn't read the message aloud. On my Samsung epic Vlingo in driving mode would read the message body. Vlingo on the SII doesn't appear to do that? Is there anyway to have it do so? Just reading the sender isn't much use if I don't know what they sent :-)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Yeah I'd like that too. Unfortunately this phone doesn't seem to support it. You can check all the options in Settings - Language and input - Text to speech - Driving mode options. Strangely enough the message readout option's description states that full messages are read, though it doesn't seem to happen.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jiggytom:
Hey man, I was looking at your app and I find it awesome!! I have the Galaxy S3 (US Version) and it works like a charm through the widget. The problem is that the bluetooth portion doesn't work.

I would also like to be able to toggle this setting via Tasker, as someone tried earlier.

Do you know what the Action Intent or Component Intent should look like. I tried a bunch of combinations without any luck.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Hi - please check v1.2, just added. Lemme know if you get it working
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Great tutorial - just added new version which supports "_drv_on" and "_drv_off" as actions, to actually set the states instead of toggling.

Want to Donate?

How would one go about getting the full version of this app? Where would I donate?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
Right now it's only uploaded to Amazon Appstore -

http://www.amazon.com/CyberDroid-Dr...342296636&sr=1-2&keywords=driving+mode+widget

Yeah I know that sucks. It's because Amazon had a free developer account offer running when I created it.

I am thinking about creating a Google Play account. Let me figure out the donation part better, in the meanwhile, for XDA members I can provide the full version via email on request.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] PDMulloy:
Just bought it from Amazon App Store.. Works great! TY
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dragondagger55555:
On the Galaxy S III using the donate version connected to bluetooth will it read incoming text messages over bluetooth in driving mode?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] hirak99:
It depends on phone and car settings. The app does nothing more than turning on the driving mode when bluetooth is connected. So a way to check it would be to manually keep the widget turned on in the car with the phone connected to bluetooth, and see if the sound is routed through bluetooth or the phone.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ylexot:
I'm a newbie when it comes to Tasker. Could someone please explain how to trigger this in Tasker? I found "Send Intent" and am assuming that's what I need to use, but I have no idea what to put in any of the fields.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] chiraagt:
I agree.. I too would like a step by step as to how I could trigger the Driving Mode on and off feature in Tasker.. As I have seen that Pent (Author of the Tasker Program) has stated that Tasker still doesn't have access to that option. And having searched around quite a bit there are no other applications that Activates the S3 Driving Mode application unlike your program.. I have tried searching as to how its to be done but I am just not as Technically sound to pull off such a task.. Thanks in Advance..

Tasker/NFC Interfacing

The instructions for Tasker are written in the driving mode app if you launch it. Thanks again to the developer for the widget. Definitely purchasing it now that I got it working with an NFC tag. Anyway, the following is what I got to work on my Galaxy S3.

Create a task. I made 1 for turning driving mode off and 1 for turning driving mode on. Add action -> Misc -> Send Intent. The following is what I entered in each field, without the quotes. If the field isn't listed, I left it blank.

Action - '_drv_on' or '_drv_off' depending on which task you are making

Cat - 'None'

Package - 'com.arnab.drivingmode'

Class - 'com.arnab.drivingmode.DWidget'

Target - 'Broadcast Receiver'

I then used NFC Task Launcher to create the NFC tag. You can choose 'New Tag' -> 'New Task' -> 'Add Action' -> 'Tasker' -> 'Tasker Task' and then select one of the two tasks you just created from the popup menu. I then made a switch tag so that the first time the tag is scanned, driving mode is turned on along with some other settings. If the tag is scanned again, driving mode is turned off along with changing some other settings.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] ylexot:
Well now I feel stupid ;) I didn't even think to launch the app. Thanks for the help!

Tried to buy the donate version of this as it's exactly what I'm looking for. I've got the free one installed, but I want it to automatically activate on bluetooth connection (car hands free kit) which is a funciton of the donate version.

However when I try and buy it Amazon tells me it can't sell it to me because I'm not in the US and it's been removed from Play store. Is there any other way of getting the full version of this app please? I tried PM'ing the OP ages ago and got no reply so assume he's not around. I'm quite happy to pay the $1.50 he's asking for the app, just can't find any way of downloading it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Stalka:
Is there a way of changing the text output of driving mode?

At the moment it says "comma" in the text message output which sounds funny, like.

Would love to remove that comma! :confused:

It was asleep all night so not sure how it died. I have tried pwr+N for 10,20 secs. As of now I'll wait til the N is green and hope it turns on. I am on Albert's rom w adw/1.4.0.

I sometimes have to power off by holding for at least a minute - worth a try anyway.

Also, if trying to power back on right away, my NT takes several power on tries - about 1-3 seconds each and can be up to 5 times?!

Hope that helps! - if it's still a problem.

[Android General] Musik847:
Someone should edit the multitasking so that when you hit the button it has more options

Ideas:

- make it have adjustments you can change in settings

- an option to have all apps show with a listed alphabetical or recent tasks option

- have current task in the list

- option to swipe away task and it actually closes the task completely

- ability to make the tasks smaller so if you have many tasks open you don't have to scroll through pages and pages

- make it also a task launcher so in one side there's recent task the other there is a alphabetized list like a contact list (except for apps) or the app: fast drawer

Anyone else have ideas?

Also do you think this is a good idea too?

Thanks!

Hey Guys,

so I'm 14 and coloured and my whole Village and school is full of "white",

i mean i have many friends but my computer science teacher is such a b***h.

She bullying on me where ever she can's just like in this project she said to me i have to use all the basic html comands without div's and so on. But to my other "white" classmates she said that they can usw everythung she helps them and when the others are disturbing the teaching lessons everytime she yells at me. my whole class thinks that she hates me...

So how would you handle it?

[Off-topic] anarox:
you take away her power, dont try to handle it with her, go her supervisor, ie the rector and report her. Aslong as you and you classmates and her are involved she will have the power.

If you want to do however want to solve it between you and her, start by talk to her straight up about the situation. If she dont accknowledge or take you serious, then tell her that you are heading to the rectors office.

Dont be afraid to start some beef, if you keep ignoring stuff like this then I can assure you wil send a signal that it is okey to do it.

Is the headteacher your rector? you need to talk to someone who can do something about it, ask your dad or anyone who maybe have time to join you in class, to let the teachers know that you are not alone in this. If it doesnt help then you bring media attention to it. Dont worry, your father seems like he can protect you no matter what.

In the US, we have superintendents over school districts. There should be something similar for you. Unless schools are privately owned and funded then you may have nobody to go to other than the headmaster.

If you were in the US, I'd have more advice to give. I just don't know how things work there.
