Ok its not note2 specific just that I have a note 2....

I need to create an app that can read a text, send a text, and read/write a file from an external usb stick, it sounds easy but.....

So I'm open to suggestions as to what IDE/toolchain I should be aiming at, I have wrote ''an app'' that does this, but its actually in picbasic and runs on a pic 18f2550 with a serial modem and internal flash

I want to do away with the pic/modem and just an android phone.

One other thing, the file on the usb stick, the usb stick isnt, its actually a controller for other hw devices, i just make the controller appear to usb as mass storage as that makes a simple text file an easy way for it to communicate, if its possible...I'd sooner make the controller appear as a serial coms device like the 9600 8n1 standard but I dont know if i could get away with that via OTG where as I know OTG can read write a text file..

Thanks guys, I just had a look at app inventor and it made me want to cry...

I'm used to c/basic/asm (dare I say cobol, well i am 46....) so anything drag and drop I find infuriating/restrictive/non intuative, even tough there supposed to simple to use, I find them not...

you will no doubt be aware of such apps as prey, find my droid, wavesecure, they all can read an incoming text for a keyword and if present perform an action, thats similar to what i am trying to achive, well its part of it etc

easiest way to simplify this is imagine a lighthouse for boats, I need to be able to send a message to my phone at the top of a lighthouse, to turn the light on. I also need to be able to query the light status.

now doing this with a arduino/pic and a bag of relays was no biggy, what was the issue was the phone was connected via its connector running serial data at 9600 and modem AT protocols from the 1970's....

this all worked fine, 100% working, but the phones had the issue that after a random amount of days they would stop responding to commands, but would say 'ok' to every command given...

so replaced with a modem module and a seperate 2 line lcd, this worked fine, but put the cost up....

so decided that as old android phones with damaged screens are often very cheap, and most support OTG, the way is open to try doing this once again, using the phone to receive a text, reply to the text, and control the light by writing out a txt file to the ''usb mass storage stick'' thats simply light.txt and is a txt file containing the word 'on' 'off' or 'status'

The pic controller which is happy to pretend to be USB storage, and look for this file, and take the required action, if it sees 'on' or 'off' it simply toggles a pin to on or off, if its 'status' it sense the light, and creates a file of answer.txt with 'yes' or 'no' as content

the app can look for the answer.txt, and depending on it being 'yes' or 'no', send a replay text with 'ok' or 'bring a spare bulb'

of course I dont have a lighthouse, but you see what i'm trying to achive with an android phone over the old working but unreliable T68i (I have a few of them about a dozen left I think, all have same firmware bug)

Lol no its a replacement for a circuit that of all things originally started with a motorola startac and a relay across button '5' to dial help

I dont want to be too open about the 'final design' as I want to present it to the forum as a working prototype that others can copy/use and dont want beating to the finish etc.

I've put many years of work into this on and off, even bought 20 2nd hand phones for the 'beta test' which then 'cancelled' due to the phones not being able to be left on 24/7 without locking up, and i killed a few making them 'battery free' and some more making a reboot circuit that just pulled power which they didnt like happening too often, so I abandoned it till now, I now think I'm onto a winner with the new 'design'

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Porting a Sense ROM is way over MY head! Nice suggestion though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
There's an issue with that ROM. Look at the very bottom part of the OP thread.

Sharing Policy

None.

You are NOT allowed to use this rom as base, to take parts of this rom, or to port this ROM. Ever.

Sure I could port it and counter their sharing policy with the license of HTC but with all due respect to Virtuous team and an avid fan of their virtuous infinity I don't wanna upset them.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] K7Cobb:

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Virtuous is so bitter posting anything on XDA anymore; no wonder such a statement. If you really wanted them to allow porting, appealling in that thread will probably do the trick. When against the wall, It'd be hard to find a developer or team of developers to say no to openness.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
They can't legally copyright their ROMs since 99% of it is already copyrighted by HTC and Google. There is nothing they can legally do to anybody who takes their ROM and does whatever they want with it. Even their kernels are open source, as required.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
But I feel its crappy. Kinda like at it look what I can do but nobody else can.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
I know exactly where you're coming from & I agree wholeheartedly. Just throwing out a little sarcasm there. lol The only thing is, is we aren't supposed to without consent. Or that's what I've always thought anyhow.

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:05 PM ----------

There's certainly no doubt about the crappiness factor involved. Of course I look at things differently than they do and would be PROUD to have mine or the team I'm on having just the thanks & credits for a solution to an issue. I kinda thought that was what android was all about. If a person is producing apps for money....now that's a different situation. JMO tho....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
It is an "unspoken rule" among Android devs to give credit where credit is due. Hell, there'd be no kanged anything if everyone took the attitude of Virtuous. What if HTC or Google took that attitude, Virtuous would be up the feces creek, no? :p I think their little pointy heads have gotten too big. There's tons of stuff in all of their ROMs that comes from other people, they depend on a host of devs that came before them to put out anything with their name on it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Riyal:
I know where you all are coming from. And no :) it's 100% HTC. There are no items there which came from Virtuous Team. What they only had is the technique to extract the OS from the RRU and they believe that they deserve all rights with that ROM since

"if we didn't release it on public you all wouldn't have any ROM at all"

But meh... All that's left for me to not KANG their ROM is my gratitude because they delivered a sense 4.0 ROM in our device. I must admit I didn't consider getting this device if it weren't for their ROM so yeah as much as I like to bring it here there's another side of me which respects them
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I doubt they wrote all the tools they use to extract the ROMs or package or modify. That's what I mean by their dependency on other devs. They've become too arrogant.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
There isn't a set of tools to pull a ROM.zip from an RUU. BUT they are the very first to reverse engineer the whole M10 thing HTC turned to in Sense 3+. Still with that being said I don't think ill ever touch another ROM that has anything to do with Team Virtuous because it seems to go against what open source is in my opinion.

Great tool = crappy attitude.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] mattlowry:
dont you need libs for msm8660?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
From my understanding, XDA clamping down on ROM posting requirements drove Virtuous batty. Some defected to the "other" ROM posting site (not allowed to link it here) in bitterness, some joined other development teams, and a rarer bunch is still using the Virtuous name with closed statements such as the one mentioned just to demonstrate bitterness.

Wtf is up with this ****? My wife's friends turned 4g on on her og evo and had 4g service in lansing...wimax? Why the **** is Sprint eating their time and resources starting up wimax here? They should b working on the LTE rollout. This is really getting ridiculous now...go figure I switched my evo for the s3 cuz I figured it would never c 4g...now exactly how long am I gonna have to wait for lte?

Let me say, I'm not really one to complain about the entire 4g debacle, but I just don't understand this move. I know several people that ditched their wimax phones for the gs3 because they figured they would never c 4g on the evo...guess they got us again huh.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daniel4653:
First, shut up.

Sprint is no longer rolling out Wimax so it has always been there. And this isn't the place to complain. Take it up with sprint if you're so upset. Or better yet pay etf and go with another company. Seeing these new threads popping up isn't anything new. Its very annoying.

This is my opinion and I do not speak for the community
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dbenney:
First off you don't need to b an asshole. And second off no, wimax has NOT always been here. It was in grand rapids ONLY. Do u think I'm so ****ing stupid that I don't know how to check my evo to c if I have 4g? If you don't have any input or information keep your useless opinions to yourself. No one wants to hear your idiotic replies.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Speedin07si:
So your complaining/venting does what exactly? Your approach with the language makes you look like the a-hole just my opinion.

So what Sprint has a Wimax tower in your area and no lte yet. Did you not know there was no lte when you bought your phone? If so your uninformed buyer... they could of had that wimax tower up and ready long before you bought your gs3, just didn't turn it on till recently.

You may get a more polite response by calling Sprint customer care (because it's their job to be polite), then you would here with your useless complaining...

Just my .02.

Sent from Pluto.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dbenney:
I'm not complaining about not having lte..I knew it wasn't here yet when I got my gs3 just as I knew there was no wimax when I got my og evo...it does upset me a little that all of a sudden a wimax signal started showing up here. It just seems that they would b so busy with regular voice, data and lte updates that any wimax additions would b a waste of time.

As far as language and attitude, I apologize. It just hit me wrong and I have some major real life stuff going on right now, so I guess that played into me being quickly irritated.

As far as Sprint goes, have you ever really called with service related questions? I know it partially depends on who you talk to, but Sprint seems to car very little about customer service/satisfaction. The ones I have talked to have some of the worst attitudes of any customer service reps I have ever dealt with.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daniel4653:
Your accusation about sprints CS is only from your part. Every single, and when i say every single employee I mean it. That I have spoken too has always been polite and did what they could to make me (their customer) happy. I've been with them for 4 years now and not once have I been disappointed after ending a call.

If you want to see horrible customer service go check out Verizon. I had to deal with their crappy service for 7 years.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fedge1234:
Ive had one bad experience with a sprint cs rep that would just talk over me and talk over me and was very rude.. drove me nuts but one out of the millions ive talked to in the last 7 yrs doesn't make their general cs bad... as for them adding a "new" wimax tower... i doubt it.. probaby just didnt have your antenna turned on.. i never did with my og evo or my 3d.. it killed my battery so fast it wasnt worth it... i get way more lte signal in south fl then i ever did wimax.. as u can tell by the reponses youve gotten so far the folks here on xda aren't the ones u wanna vent to.. as they'll make your frustration a little more frustrating ...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
coming from an SG3 with LTE, I'd still love this phone without it..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dbenney:
Lol it's ok like I said just couldn't believe wimax signal here...I only ditched my evo in October and I and several friends did occasionally turn on the antenna to check for 4g service. Had done it since I got the phone. And I don't get frustrated easily...like I said something just hit me wrong especially with a very stressful real life issue I'm dealing with right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] peanut1596:
What I've noticed here on san antonio is that in a lot of areas around here, lte is completely overloaded at certain times of the day, making 3g a better alternative. A ton of people have the gs3 now so I thonk that Sprint's lte is way too little for all the phones that support lte. In other words, they may have rolled another wimax tower just so everyone on wimax phones can have a fairly decent 4g. Just to possibly keep the customer satisfied while they work on upgrades for lte to better support current lte customers. Idk if that makes sense to you but it makes sense in my head.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] doubledragon5:
Even with this new LTE network, there service is still sub-par at best.. I have more dropped calls with this new service, than I have had with Winmax, and I live in the DFW area...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RS7JR:
I'm in SA area too. My experience has been a constant, blazing fast LTE connection anywhere north of IH-10 and south of IH-10 seems to be spotty LTE, mostly 3g. When I'm on 3G, it's extremely sluggish though. Sometimes I drop down to 1x on the northwest side of town. I've heard so many different experiences though. I'm on LJ7 modem btw.

On a side note, my mother has an evo 3d that connects well with wimax. Much more of a reliable connection than I've experienced with my S3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Besides all the trolling here, it's not a big deal if there's that there now but not 4g. Who cares. Use wifi if your home or at a friends. I'm on 3g and that's perfectly fine when it comes to Web browsing some sites.

You can complain to sprint and they would just brush it off like the other countless non major complaints they get.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunster:
Hey guys, new to the xda forums after lurking here for the last two weeks after getting my N4.

To fully describe my situation, I'm still in college and on most college campuses, signal is very shaky while strong Wi-Fi exists everywhere. Therefore, I initially thought GV + VoIP would be a great option if I dont have signal. However, I'll also be traveling a lot this year in the summer and in those cases, I'll be relying on Tmobile data (yeah...not sure how reliable that'll be in a lot of areas in the U.S.) so I'll probably want to call using T-mobile signal. Being the phone noob that I am, I'm unsure if GV + VoIP will allow me to use the wi-fi in campus to make calls during the fall + winter and also allow me to still make calls with the Tmobile minutes I have in the summer when wi-fi is shaking and I don't really want to trust in Tmobile data strength in a lot of rural U.S. areas.

So TLDR: does GV + VoIP have an easy option to switch between using VoIP with wiFI and disabling VoIP and using carrier minutes to call?

Thanks in advance and sorry if it's a stupid question haha
