Excuse me for being naive, should the wallpapers not be wider to make them scrollable without cropping?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Nick Fury:
Re: [OFFICIAL][HTC ONE][Wallpapers]+[Sounds]+[Sense 5 Launcher Theme]+[Fonts]

Thank you for your comment my friend but i have read somewhere that the HTC ONE will not have scrolling wallpapers.

As i have got a system dump now i am going to upload the wallpapers folders and see if there is any difference.

If there is no change in size then i would take that as proof that we are correct in saying the HTC ONE does not have scrolling wallpapers.

Hope this helps mate

Im sure it is progress with the great devs on here.

I am also taking a look into this but as im new to the development side im not sure how successful i will be, but that said i am going to be taking a look into this for you and everyone else

Hello guys and girls,

I follow the android development since version since 1.5 cupcake and i ever thought, if you have a great idea - write an app.

So i didn't wrote WhatsApp but i love it to be bleeding edge of development, so i was looking for a new prerelease of whatsapp from time to time on their website.

I wrote an app that checks for WhatsApp prereleases.

Thats the story.

Ive got some cool ideas for the future of this app where all bleeding edge user and even blogs have a great advance of...

Maybe someone shares my love for following the development of apps.

To install my App search for it in PlayStore "Whatsapp 2Date"

changelog

I like that you enjoy the app... may b someone can post the link to the app? as long as i still can't post links.

To the Changelog thing.... there is no official changelog at all from WhatsApp directly but i have a great idea concerning this.... just need some time to realise this...

currently there is a "bug" in my app ... i din't thought of that whatsapp would pull back some update ... so if someone installed the latest version last night... he would get notification that there is a new one - cause they pulled the never version back and i was too lazy to implement version compare.... working on it and guess to release update during this day.

ps: maybe someone (of the mods) can link this post to other relevant forums? i dont want to spam with double-postings

Hello everybody,

i just want you 2 know, that the fixed version is on its way to the PlayStore.

Now there will be no more notifications if the installed-version is higher than the servers version.

Sorry for that annoying bug. As i allready said, i hadn't planned on that. :)

In Attachement is the mentioned version - the PlayStore takes its time to release my uploaded version.

Re: [APP] WhatsApp2Date

Maybe you should make it a complete toolbox for WhatsApp, so not only checking for update
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Great idea!

Which functions would you like to see?!

I wouldn't like to make it require root to function, since whatsapp runs on nearly every device.

I guess a rolleback-function would be great for the beginning - backup+uninstall server-version + reinstall playstore-version?!
[Android Apps and Games] bteljuice:
Love it! GREAT IDEA! I, just like you, check the website daily. This will do it automatically for me. Thanks man. Keep up the good work.

@spupuz great idea, i think im gonna implement a toggle to switch between light and dark holo-theme :)

a new design is on my table, but had no time to implement ... the way the changelog is presented will be changed too in further versions...

@ShockBuddy thx, hope you enjoy the app as much as the german translation ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ShockBuddy:
I tried it out, update worked out very easy. The Notification also worked without any Problems.

All in one a cool App, it would be nice if you could redo the App Icon to look a bit more like WhatsApp.

I made something for you to work with:

Anyway, thank you for this App ^^
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Hey, thank you for your work, it looks pretty nice, guess im gonna change the icon in the next versions... ;)

I worked the whole night to finish the new layout... guess to release a new version with cooler ui tomorrow.

There is a new Playstore version of whatsapp available, just got the notification, think there is a bug in my app, seems to try installing the last downloaded version after Playstore update.

Can anyone confirm?

Any Chance for lower RAM usage, 7MB for a update check is pretty high. Even the App itself is smaller ^^
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
AW: [APP][Free][2.3+] WhatsApp2Date

It seems to vary between 4 and 7mb ram consumption. First prio on my update list is include action sherlock to have the same ui on all devices, guess the versions list will have to be scrolled on smaller screens. But it will avoid that buttons are inside of the result text.

Then I will try to change the service handling.

Thank you so much for this app - the more/longer I use it, the more I like it! Previously I had to do all this checking manually, now it is all automated :D - BRILLIANT!!!

I wish there were more really USEFULL apps out there like this. Keep it up!! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Highlander11:
Oops! I just got something weird: I have v2.9.4724 installed (same as WhatsApp server version). The app however reckons that the Google playstore version is newer at v2.9.4750. Choosing to update from there goes to the Playstore, but the version is given as v2.9.4207 only?????

The app downloads and installs regardless (I only saw the actual version afterwards).
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
@Neuroxyde

Thank you for your offer to translate my app!

The German part will stay in my hand, but french would be great. The thing is, that in this phase (beta) waiting for new translation will slow down the progress at all. I have some things i would like to add to the app... when this is done it there will be more translations available.

It's hard to find time to develop this app further at the moment - and when i have time i want to see the newest changes in playstore.

So i will pm you "when it's done" ;).... hope your offer still is available at this point (guess in a month or so).

@Highlander11

Thanks for your feedback i'm happy you enjoy the app.

To the strange-Version behavior i just can say that whatsapp seems to pull updates back.... we saw that in server-versions... but this could happen in playstore as well.

That seems to be the only explanation for your problem....

Or does it still remain?
[Android Apps and Games] dv5dev:

I downloaded your app in the playstore but i want to thank you for your work. Much appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
I really like, that so many people enjoy using my app! Hope i find some time tomorrow to work on further features... Action sherlock is first on the plan, Acra integration for better crash reports will come too. I only have my Nexus 4 to test the app and I hope to get more stable with information from Acra. The app will raise to 1mb.

May be the theme switch will be included tomorrow too ;).

Thanks everyone, have a great weekend
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:

problems with 3.10?

I got some reply, that the installation doesnt show up since version 3.10 on galaxy nexus and other devices... anyone can confirm?

the workflow should be... klick download -> download gets fired in the status-bar -> when the download has finished it should throw up the install-dialog.
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Yea Dutch translation is allready added, what's next?

India and Arab would be great... They make ca. 15 % of the user.
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
In 3.12 we have Italian language as well. Please follow the PlayStore link / update to get the new version.

PS I hope the new Playstore policy will not lead to a ban of my App :-\.
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
planed changes

There are some points on my todo-list:

* still working on further dark-theme style... any sketch is desirable :)

* putting the download-ready listener in the service so there is no need to keep the app opend when download has started

(there are too many user that say the app doesnt work cause the install wont start if app is closed before)

* some optical changes that will be just eye-candy like nicer changelog of the app itself

hi,

Ouch :(

Since yesterday the app tells me that the store version "varies for different devices". How to be accurate now? Would be a shame that we loose WA 2date because of this :(
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Well the way wa2date determines the playstore-version is check the playstore for listed version.... so they seemed to have something changed.

(if you open https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whatsapp you can see that this info is there as well)

dunno how 2 get the playstore-version... -.-

will think about it and be open for suggestions

cheers andy
[Android Apps and Games] Droidphilev:
Hello again,

First trouble already here. Playstore says there was an update for WA (2.10.748) while i was on .745. WA 2date was not capable of checking this :(

As long as their server carries a newer version then there's no problem but from the moment Play has a newer version....

Real shame for all your work :(
[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
I think it is a part of staged rollout feature lately added to the PlayStore. Hope to find a way to fix this.

Don't see the new version you are talking about, so that is another point that speaks for staged rollout.

Short Update

Hi,

I just uploaded the version 3.155 - its not new but was not available here on xda ....

Short update on further plans - im working on new gui update that makes the whole experiance a bit cooler ;).

For a short spoiler look at our community at g+ https://plus.google.com/communities/115265323599778360589?partnerid=gplp0

I have and had some family healthy-issues and this takes too much time to make big steps now.

Feature request

Hi Andy,

just an idea, which you might interpret as a "feature request" if you so wish :cool:

What about the choice to AUTOMATICALLY update to the latest version of WhatsApp found? I do it in ANY case all the time, but currently it requires user intervention. Can this not be a setting/choice, please?

[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Yep, thats what they told me:

"REASON FOR REMOVAL: Violation of the dangerous products provision of the Content Policy:

Applications that cause users to download or install applications from unknown sources outside of Google Play are prohibited."

so i tried to ask for any changes i could make to keep my app in playstore, but i just got an default reply:

"Thank you for your note.

We have reviewed your appeal and will not be reinstating your app. This decision is final and we will not be responding to any additional emails regarding this removal."

no comment on what i argumented.

I'm so disappointed how google deals with developers, that had 1,8 Mio downloads and 180.000 active user.

If i violated the policy they could have given me at least a chance to make it clean without loosing all my user.

When you ask for a bill for you order (i ordered the nexus5) you get a contact person who takes care of the flow.

As developer you have nothing.

I didnt realized that i violate the policy, otherway i would have changed my app to get conform.

So my app still works, i just cant update it anymore via playstore.

If you want to keep informed follow this thread and join the comunity

Suggestion

I love WhatsApp2Date!! I however find that I ALLWAYS just select to update to the newest version of WhatsApp, as soon as I am prompted by WhatsApp2date. My suggestion is to add a selection box to select to "automagically" perform the update, without any further user intervention. If this check box is not selected, the normal (current) manual choice then still has to be made via user intervention... IMHO, this will make WhatsApp2Date just a little better - if that is possible ;)

[Android Apps and Games] gpvecchi:

[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Niklas_04, this is a technical issue.

I Guess WhatsApp is still using staged rollout -> so the newest version varies until rollout reaches 100%.

So i think it will switch to latest WA-Version just when WA switches the rollout to 100%.

Sorry for that, but i dont know any other way to grab the actual WA-Playstore-Version-Nr.

You can even have a look at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whatsapp this should be showing the same....

Hey there,

gr8 App and very useful. (-:

However, I am having the problem that if I download a new version through the App it gets download but the install screen does not appear automatically. I always need to go into the folder and start the apk from there. I think earlier it was not an issue.

I am using it on XZ 4.4.4

[Android Apps and Games] finfin82:
Hi,

the point is, that you will have to stay in the app until the download has finished... then the install-dialog will showup.

You can also try to activate the alternate download-method in the options.

I hope this will fix your issues...

thanks for using whatsapp2date
