updates from me

So I've been using this for about a week now on my Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean (v4.1.1). Here is some feedback from me:

- The app works, but I've noticed that when I start up the app, it doesn't work immediately. I have to go into the app, and toggle the settings (e.g. press on "Disable autodata" and again on "Enable autodata") for the app to start working.

- The battery life does appear to improve. I haven't measured out how much longer the battery lasts, but have noticed a difference.

- I've tried it while on both the 4G and 3G service. No problems with that.

- Going into the battery menu (in settings), I see that relative to all the other apps, Autodata does use a lot of battery (see attached image). This isn't a big deal, since it's relative and I had the phone on for about a day. (note: sorry for the volume control that's blocking the graph. Didn't realize it when taking the pic).

- All in all, I'm very satisfied. If you could increase the settings available, such as varying the amount of time that the data is off (as opposed to on), I think it'd be a great app.

I'll let you know more as time passes. Hope this info helps.

8/7/2012 update:

After using it some more, I've now started noticing bugs. For example:

- When turning the screen on, the data doesn't turn on

- With the screen on and using a data app, the data connection will automatically turn off on me

- When using the phone and with the data connection showing as established, I'm still not able to access the internet. The "3G" logo will be there, but it won't be blue (i.e. indicating that there's internet connectivity) and no apps are able to access the internet.

- Even after disabling the app, it's still showing as running in the background. I have to go into settings to shut it down.

Thanks for info on JB and auto data! I have used Battery stretch until now, it gave me ~4.1-5.0% battery use/ hour, on 'average' phone use; today uninstalled Battery stretch, battery use goes up immediately to 6%/ hour - I am curious how auto data helps to save my juice!

But, once again, I cannot find the download link (download in post 1 is empty) ; anybody can help me?

Thanks in advance!
[Android Apps and Games] upsidedowner:
I also can't seem to find a download link, the download button is just a picture. I considered downloading 1.1 from dropbox, but decided against it. :p
[Android Apps and Games] chrisully:
http://db.tt/ulKtXeo3 this is link people enjoy
[Android Apps and Games] bmszabo:
Thanks for the link; however this is version 1.3; according to op (post 2) there is version 1.5 in the meanwhile...

Could somebody post the link for 1.5, plz? Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] MrFrem82:
I can't find any download link for version 1.5, please someone could post it?
[Android Apps and Games] Publiuss:
Hi

I really would test.. but i can't download anything!

No link, the last dropbox link is now empty...
[Android Apps and Games] tantin75:
See attachment for 1.5 version. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Publiuss:
Very well, i'll test it ASAP!

Thank you! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] bmszabo:
hmm.. installed auto data version 1.5; auto data takes the highest place on battery use stats (24% in my case), but alltogether battery use is about 5%/ hour (which is not bad in my case, comparable with Battery stretch).

HOWEVER: When I was browsing the settings, under accesibility, services a new item ('auto data') shows up, by default turned off (I have let it also that way), which frustrates me quite - I don't like hidden services (even when turned off) I have no know about being around!

Maybe just me being paranoid; dev/ any other member can tell me what, explain why an accessibility service (collecting data) is related to auto data (version 1.5)? Also, if legate, should it be turned on -and if yes, why??

This all seen on my NS, JB, stock, unrooted.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Apps and Games] chrisully:
I deleted its a good app but if u turn mobile off and just use WiFi it keeps turning mobile data on
[Android Apps and Games] chrisully:
http://db.tt/P5BcOzdG link for 1.5
[Android Apps and Games] bmszabo:
Anybody with an answer for this questions? Just curiosity; never seen an app before using accessibility services/ don't know what the purpose of this is... Dev?

suggestions

Great app ! Thx for You effort !

I'm using it for about week now and have little suggestion for future versions:

- custom data on / off delays (two edit boxes for custom time or drop down lists with predefined times)

- simple time schedule (or just peak time) or time, when the app is enabled,

I think that in most cases there is no need to toggle data connection every 5/10mins (or custom delays) during night...

I think it would be nice to have possibility to set, for example:

- Turn data ON for 10 mins, every hour / half of hour / custom time, but only from 6AM to 11PM etc., keep data off during night.
[Android Apps and Games] brck:
I would second your suggestion. Great app!
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
I hope that you guys didnt put up the link to version 1.5

I took it down for a reason... I want to fix all problems before re-releasing it.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
Posted new screenshots on what's coming on the next release! (Please check original post)

List of Features:

- enable or disable start on boot

- custom times for both data on and data off :)

- logs screen!! (To make sure everything works)

- enable or disable auto wifi when phone is plugged to charger or usb

- debug mode
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
its an experimental feature.

im not sure if it works yet.
[Android Apps and Games] tantin75:
Sorry for that.

I remove the attachment of my post.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
no worries mate!

Just want to perfect the app before releasing it further to the public :)
[Android Apps and Games] crz6662:
Where to get the pro version?
[Android Apps and Games] jwcurry83:
any ETA on a download link?? I would really like to try this app.

[Android Apps and Games] cwbeasley:
He creates a thread... for his own program... that he's building... and beta testing for release. You come in and post a link to an alternate program. Where's the sense in that? "Hey guys, he's making cake for us!" And you walk in, the derpy moron you obviously must be, and say, "Hey, someone else is making a cake too, here's the address!"

God I remember when XDA people had a little courtesy.

OP: I'm sincerely you're still making this. Please keep up the good work. If you make a pay version at some point, I'll be purchasing, as I need exactly this functionality, and I like that you're fully connected and committed to making it perfect. Excellent mate!
[Android Apps and Games] jwcurry83:
I agree with what you are saying but it would be nice if the thread at the very least contained a download link so I could try the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
Sorry guys been busy with work.

Uploading version 2.0 now

Default time is set to 5mins.

Right now custom times are disabled... Im planning to release a PRO version as well if everything goes well, but it might be for donors instead of buying the app.

I also have a Playstore account so if everything goes well I will be releasing it via Playstore.

Check the OP thread in a few minutes.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
version 2.0 released!

see changelog on 2nd post...

this is a major update. it should fix all the existing bugs...

stable release now!

please delete old version and do a fresh install.

thanks tantin75 for the awesome icon!
[Android Apps and Games] apisfires:
Lads, why your apps will interfere with phone network data, my phone credit from 40 dolar to 0.02 dolar? I just use my home wifi as primary network, but your apps will auto start 3G network. You should let people choose what they primary network, I'm very disappointed with this. Before this never have problems with your old version apps.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
Hi, sorry about your phone credit. But as posted on the 1st post, this was created because I have unlimited mobile data. This program will turn on and turn off your mobile data every few minutes.
[Android Apps and Games] jr_718:
What about pro version
[Android Apps and Games] crz6662:
Actually, that's a good idea. Have wifi at work and home. Would save 3/4G data for when I really need it.
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
I want to wait for more comments and if there are more bugs.

I want to make sure it works for everyone before releasing it :)
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
I will see what I can do. Auto Data is meant for those who have unlimited data.

Also, if I use Wifi wouldn't that consume more battery than 3G/4G Data which then defeats the purpose of Auto Data?

There is a built in feature that turns on Wifi and turns off data when you plug it in the USB / Charger. But I haven't released that version yet
[Android Apps and Games] apisfires:
Okay,
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
version 2.1 going to be out soon..

Auto Start on Boot will be available for everyone.

Also, I improved the interface, and also changed how things work

Before if you turn off the screen, automatically your data will be off before turning it back on.

Now, if you turn off the screen, data will still be on for a few minutes before turning it off.

I did this because in case you're sending out an email or using the net, then your phone screen turns off due to idle time, you will still be connected to the internet.

I also plan on adding timeout delay before Auto Data turns on. Meaning, lets say you define 5mins, after 5mins the screen is off before it will toggle the data on and off. But this one is still in the planning stage.
[Android Apps and Games] marko555:
Can be added option to check or uncheck. Data is on when screen is on and automatic data off when screen is off. That be a amazing option.:)
[Android Apps and Games] Glen L:
So instead of running the data every few minutes while the screen is off, then the data will be always off once the screen goes off?

I'll see what I can do about that one :)

Anyways, looks like i'll be getting the Galaxy Nexus in a few months when my contract with t-mobile is up. I'll be sticking with t-mobile, but on the "bring your own phone month-month" plans.
[myTouch 4G General] redvenger:
according to the pictures, the only resemblance to myTouch 4G is the front upper part, and the name myTouch :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G General] md1008:
Yeah I remember when the my touch came out it was competing against the iPhone. Now it seems T-Mobile strategy is focus on cheap plans hence the monthly 4G and the value plans.

The one thing I will say its nice to see a 4inch QWERTY keyboard. Keyboards are usually reserved for super low end phones. I wonder if they plan on promoting these phones on their monthly 4G plans.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
I'm a big noob in this community. Well, yesterday I flashed a custom rom and got my captive in a loop. No biggie. I flashed it back to stock and now running elcair 2.1. I've tried hooking it up to lies mini but it seems two drivers fail to install correctly everytime. Downloaded the drivers from Samsung and other places. Contacted Samsung through live chat (never again). Ive tried factory resetting. I also need to mention I can't go into download mode or recovery. I need the 3 button mod but I've read that rom manager doesn't support eclair. Am I screwed and stuck on this firmware?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
First, forget Rom Manager. It has almost nothing for the Captivate. Second, check out my signature for an ADB Utility to help you get into download/recovery. Also, you may want to completely uninstall the drivers for the captivate, reboot, and then reinstall them again before plugging your phone back in.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
ADB utility would help me go into download mode?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
If the drivers are working correctly, yes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
My drivers ARENT working correctly. I dont know what seems to b e the problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmtheiss:
As Red_81 mentioned, if you can't get into download or recovery mode, try using ADB to force it to get there. You can get it with the utility in Red_81's signature. Once you have the phone hooked up and ADB installed, just open a command prompt, navigate to where you have ADB installed, and type "adb reboot download" or "adb reboot recovery".

If the Samsung drivers aren't cutting it for you, you might want to try flashing a stock Gingerbread ROM (with bootloaders) from Heimdall. Heimdall will install its own USB driver (lib-usb), which might bypass your issue.

If you're still having driver issues, take a look at the "Captivate Connection Issues" thread in my signature. At least one of those solutions should (hopefully) work for you.

How am I suppose to connect it if i can't install the drivers? -.-
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Edit: Can u try a different pc to see if the drivers will load to it ??

The Stickied Threads in the Captivate Forums (Q & A and General and Development) will prove to be of much help also.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
I've already tried. Installed, uninstalled, rebooted my computer nothing. I've been trying for two days already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Did u try Heimdall as suggested previously. It will install it's driver only to the one usb port that u r connected to at the time of the install. ??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
Yeah, I've tried with two computers already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
Heimdall didnt work, better yet im not sure what im suppose to do with it. What my phone does when its in Samsung kies mode is it keeps on booting up the mtp application. Whats happening there?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Under Settings/ Applications / Development -- Uncheck USB debugging. Then go back one to USB settings and then select Kies.

Now back out to Home screen and try mini kies again. Open mini kies 1st then connect ur phone to the pc.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xylos123:
Done that. It like closes the mtp application, but opens it up away.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Gnildryw:
Hi,

I have installed GingerDX (v027) on my X8. In the Theme Chooser I have two themes to choose from: ICS and System (which is the one I use).

I really like how my phone looks as it does now, the only thing I would like to change is the color of the icons in the status bar (and of the main icons, if possible, of Call, Messages, Browser and the like) from green to something else, preferably blue.

I asume the right way to do this is by changing the theme (please correct me if I'm wrong).

I've read that CyanogenMod usually comes with three default themes (one theme in three different colors) and I would like to know where I might be able to find those themes (again, I'm asuming that the one I'm using, System, is one of those three).

I have tried downloading CM7 and extracted the files in the hope that I could find .apk files for the themes, but if they're there I don't know what they're called (there is a ThemeChooser.apk (and a ThemeChooser.odex file that I don't know what does), which I asume would install the app Theme Chooser again, but I don't know if the themes are included in that install).

I am a bit worried, though, that I've misunderstood something, because when I try to apply the other theme, Ice Cream Sandwich, the color of the icons aren't changed (but, there is also a warning when I try to apply the theme about missing assets for my screen size, maybe that is what is screwing things up). But if I have misunderstood this entire thing and a theme doesn't change the colors, then what does (do I need to get a new launcher for that then)? (I have the Nemus Launcher that came with GingerDX by the way)

Okay, this got a bit lengthy, so to recap:

I want to change the standard green color (to blue) without changing much else (I'm not too fond of most other themes I've seen, so the default theme in other colors would be fantastic)

Is it possible to find those default themes, and if so, how and where?

Thank you for your help,

Erica

(A side question: how do I delete the ICS theme?)
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Chris95X8:
The other two themes you are talking about are Cyanbread and Androidian. The ThemeChooser.apk it's the theme chooser itself. They are normal CM7 themes, like ICS. Devs have eventually removed those 2 themes from their ROMs because they were old and not maintained anymore. System theme is the default theme of CM7/Gingerbread. You can't uninstall that one.

The "missing assets for the screen size" it's a bug which appears whenever you try to apply an MDPI theme. It's not screwing up anything, I can assure you that.

Also, what colors are you trying to change? Maybe you could give some screenshots.

You can delete the ICS theme by going into system/apps/ with a file manager with root capabilities.
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Gnildryw:
First of all, thank you for the quick reply! (that was so unexpected - I guess I'm used to slow moving forums)

Secondly, it worked! Once I knew the names of the themes it was easy to find them. Also, thank you for the general info - it's good to know (I'm slowly becomming a little less of a noob).

Erica
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] faraz_fireboy:
Also have a look at themed & apps section....

there are some nice themes created by Chris95X8 & achep... :cool:

Is it important how did i send this?
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] neo_na:
Can some help me get my hands on a free version of steel blue theme? It looks great!!!
[XPERIA X8 Themes and Apps] Gnildryw:
(Neo_na, isn't that a bit off topic? Oh well.)

If anyone's curious, here's an update on my color problem.

Installing Cyanbread sort of solved the issue: it changed the icons in the status bar from green to blue and the icon color (as well) from green to blue, which was what I wanted.

It didn't though change the color of the dots at the top of the screen (the ones that show where you are on the desktop) which was still green. I'm guessing, now that I know a bit more about themes and their different options, that it would have been possible to choose to hide those dots, but since I didn't know better I went looking for another solution (another reason for that is also that although Cyanbread is blue, then it's not the right kind of blue that matches the cover color of my phone - yes, I'm a bit of a perfectionist...)

I went looking for themes and found that both ADW and Go Launcher EX had a lot of good ones. I quickly realized, though, that none of those themes changed the status bar (which meant that I was back to my original problem).

So, here's my final solution (at least until I dare try my hand at making my own theme):

I found and installed a CM7 theme whose status bar I liked.

Then found a (in this case AWD) theme whose icons I liked.

Then changed the background image.

= a phone without any green!

(In the end I veered away from blue and I've ended up with a nice light glassy white combination that works really well with my prefered wallpaper. I've still chosen to hide the status bar though, since it's not a complete match and the screen looks better without it. And I've went into the CM7 settings to customize the lockscreen to fit as well as posible - I tried finding Go Locker themes, but none of them were perfect. The only odd bits of stray color is now an orange line that shows when you hit the top and end of the app drawer and I've had to chose to hide the background of the dock icons, since it looked botched on my phone for some reason - both are things I can easily live with.)
