App Idea - Non Emergency Dialer

I am a mechanical engineer, and dabble in graphic design and programming, but I'd need someone's help with this idea. I'm thinking of an app that will dial the local non-emergency (police/fire) number based on location services.

For example, you're on a road trip and see an abandoned vehicle on the side of the highway. You want to report it, but this doesn't require a 911 call, and you don't necessarily know the number of the local police/highway patrol. This app would have an updated database of location based phone numbers for you to call in a non emergency situation.

Ideally it would be a two button app that would allow you to dial the police station, or fire station that serves the area you are currently in. There are apps for dialing emergency services, but I haven't seen anything that quite does what I am proposing here.

I'm not offering to pay for the work, but am looking for someone to partner with and share possible app sales with. I am hoping to provide support and grow as a programmer with whoever might want to work on this.

Who will be your user group? I can't really imagine that anybody will pay for an app which they don't need at the moment.

Then when people need the information your app would provide, using Google will be faster than downloading your app. Would anybody search for such an app in a situation like the one you described?

Developers Needed for an Open Source, Non-Profit Project

Hi Everyone! I'm launching a non-profit organization that aims to provide big data analysis for the good of humanity rather than targeted marketing. To start with, we'll need app developers, web developers, and beta testers willing to help us with bug reports. To see what it's all about, check out the project description here - theGOODforyou.org

The basic idea of this app is a total life journal and logger, with reminders and alarms. All data should stay on the users' devices (nothing is permanently shared with the cloud), while a server in the cloud will be able to query the personal databases to do medical and scientific research (with the results remaining anonymous). It should be a fairly simple app to create, and I've started an alpha version here:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.thegoodforyou.journal

Our github page for the current (alpha) app is here - github.com/dickmacinnis/theGOODforyou-journal

Contact us through the aforementioned site if you'd like to help, or subscribe to our newsletter to stay in the loop and see how it's all going.

As I say, the GOOD for you is a non-profit startup, so it would be great to get volunteers to work on this, though we'll be running a crowdfunding campaign in early 2014, so I'd even appreciate reliable quotes from developers willing to do this as a work for hire. Bear in mind that as this will be an ongoing open source project, well documented code will be a must.

sorry for not being able to link, but as a new user here I currentlly can't make proper links.

why dont u sign up as an organisation on google code in

itll really help u get started
[Your Portfolio] ADDICT.ANK:
Pm me when u start.

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 AM ----------

yes sign up on google as the org. and get started ..

and as being an open source, a lil help would be great.

As u said people not comfortable with sharing their info, that's the first thing a user looks for when browsing the apps.

so functionality have to be much satisfying with a single look..but the open source will be helpful in this..

About the testers, getting familiar with the will show the result and the data required for actual implementation.

let's start with the app.

adding the much required and interesting info might give a good start though..

adding topics for daily activities and the app staying a step ahead would bring a nice experience.

So is sak ready for it?

it would be interesting to work on.

Hello again everyone. I recently added the start of a project on github, and would like to share with you all. It is still very early in development (more of an idea) but am excited to see how this goes.

You can find it on github at https:/github.com/MattMatt0240/DemiGod [MENTION=5354640]ADDICT.ANK[/MENTION], you and anyone else are welcome to contribute any ideas.

P.S. this is my first time with any team-oriented code work, and on github. If there is anything out of place, or missing, please let me know :thumbup:

Also, should I include the package name on github it will eventually be published under? I feel leaving information such as my full name and whatnot is quite vulnerable. Any insight?

Thanks,

Matt

refractor the com.example to your preffered name

Also add gradle support for studio users

In Eclipse, select File > Export.
In the window that appears, open

Android and select Generate Gradle build files.

Select the project you want to export for Android Studio and click Finish

one last thing create a thread for this app n post me up with the link
[Your Portfolio] ADDICT.ANK:

the link is given in matt's post already.

any contribution is highly appreciated bro.

Will create a thread soon for it.
[Your Portfolio] MattMatt0240:
Alright, I will add gradle support as soon as I get time. Android studio is very good too. I will create a thread for this for us to collaberate in as well.

So, I have my Google Play Developer account, whereas my package name is typically high.caliber.productions.app_name. This is suitable for github? Sorry for my lack of experience with it, I've had no help before, nor guidance.

Thanks,

Matt

Hi,

i got a question, problem or request ...

A couple of years ago i created a excelsheet, somekind of a calculator.

I use it for angling/fishing competition, the collors stands for size, the numbers in the middle are the points ( red 2 points, yelow 3 etc. )

But Android could not handle that file, so i had to convert it to html ( with spreadsheetconverter )

Wel it worked, but not as i had in mind.

In the original excelsheet i created buttons, so you did not have to use the keyboard ( just simpel klick the + or the - )

but the buttons did not work in the (android)browser, so you had to use the keyboard again.

Also the only browsers who worked properly with that file are firefox and the dolphin browser.

Here is a image of the excelsheet

The plus button count one up and the minus button count one down.

And that is how it shows on android

What i had in mind was a standalone ( no browser ) app that could do the same as the excel sheet.

Just with buttons and no keyboard.

Here a smal youtubeclip of how it works

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UOFz4tCN6c&feature=youtu.be

It's for private use only, or for anybody who could use it

The sheet can be found here

http://we.tl/DNai6Gv4wH

Who would or could give it a try??????

My friend and I are looking for a developer for a new kind of social app.

Someone PM if interested.
[Your Portfolio] deanwray:
That looks like a very easy app and probably something that would make a good start for someone wanting to get into android dev. You considered having a go yourself ?
[Your Portfolio] nikwen:
Hm, could you please add more information? Nobody will answer if we don't know why your social app would be better than every other app. There are already a couple of them out there, you know. ;)
[Your Portfolio] brody8898:
Our idea is this;

Facebook asks you "Whats on your mind?"

Twitters asks "What are you saying?"

But no one asks "What should I do?"

We are going to build an app called "VERDICT" that allows you to quickly get the opinion of your friends about what option you should choose.

Questions like;

"Which shoes should I buy?"

"What dress should I wear?"

"Where should I eat?"

or if you were Katy Perry.

"Which song should be my next single?"

It would work like this;

You would create an account and from there add "jurors" to your list. Then, you would post a question and upload a couple different pictures of the choices (dresses, sandwiches, ect..) before you. And ask the jury to vote.

You would get a closer circle of twelve "grand jurors" whose votes counted for more than the other jurors. After the allotted time the voting period would end revealing the verdict to both you and your jury.

We have a few more ideas to make it better, but that's the base.

If anyone wants to help, just PM me.

(I need help)

-Thanks.

[Your Portfolio] Amadeus01:
Hey Cool, great man, thx

Good job well done :good:

Translation is good and the app is just as i had in mind.

But i must get used to the + and the -

they are exactly the uppersite. ;)

And mis the Logo.

But i can't complain, it's way better than i could make it.

And yes i am curious about the cource and how you did it
[Your Portfolio] chiefnoah:
Update

I fixed the flipped +/- buttons for you and fixed a few other things. I've attached the source as well as the updated .apk so you can see what I did. Most of the code was auto generated though. I used Android Studio so it won't work right if you try to open it up with Eclipse.

And for the logo, I'm not sure what you want it to be. If you have something I can use or an idea for what you want I can try to make one.

Let me know if there's anything I missed or any more features you want added :D

Grrrrrrrrrrr and i am stock on a ......... WP8 Phone.
[Your Portfolio] chiefnoah:
If you'd like, I could try to make a WP8 version of the app. I've never programmed for WP8 but I'm familiar with the language it uses and am willing to try. I'm not sure about being able to install it though. I've never really looked at the platform much and I don't even know if it's possible to sideload apps.

It'll take me longer than the android version to get it working though. I have to learn the platform and how things work. I've been meaning to look more into it anyway so it'll be a good opportunity for me to learn some new stuff.

I also threw together a simple icon for the app so we're not stuck with the annoying default logo. It's nothing special and I put it together in 5 minutes. If you want me to change it I'll try to make something nice when I have time.

I also fixed the rotation bug that you mentioned before (sorry it took me so long to get it fixed). I should now be locked in portrait mode.

APK: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1errz51zhhp8xjv/ScoreCounter.apk

SOURCE: https://www.dropbox.com/s/w2g1qm6skdvn6vc/ScoreCounterSRC.zip

Please let me know if there is anything else that you would like done.

And please give my regards to the other club members :D
[Your Portfolio] Amadeus01:
Great work realy

Also the "portret" mode, the lock worked, and i like the icon :good:

Perhappes instead of the + and - , you can create some button's with the + - symbols

so it get some dept.

But i like it already the way it is ;)

Yea, it would be awesome if you could build it for wp8

You can only sideloade if you have a developersunlocked phone, witch i haven't. :(

The only way then is that you or someone else pushed it to the market and that i download it from there

I got a 32bits win7, and you need a 64 bits win8 to build/develop and develepunlock your Phone.

Small update,

just got a win8 64 bit o.s.

So i can create a dualboot and instal the Sdk8 and Dev unlock

Then it would be possible to sideload.

And that in a Android Dev section ow Boy

Small update, finaly have a x64 Windows 8 image ( dualboot takes to mutch space from my internal drive ).

So if i want to do some tinkering on my Phone, i just need to instal the image.

And i got me a developersaccount, so my Phone is unlocked now :)

Now i can sideload xap apps.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] hertsjoatmon:
I still havent quite got to grips with drawing on my tablet yet. One of the major issues im having is drawing a smooth curved line.

I can sketch an image with out any issues, but when i come to add a new layer and start to ink out the lines I always find my curves to be wavey. It takes several attempts to draw my lines as if i go to slow, ill follow the intended path but be "wobbley" or if i got to fast, I'll get a smooth line but not always on the path i intended.

Is this something you get used to after a while or is it something I will just have to learn to live with? I dont seem to have this problem with physical media.

I say major issue... My real major issue at the moment is inspiration. I'm finding with the amount of games I have installed on it, I'm far to distracted to have a good drawing session.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] madsquabbles:
a lot of drawing programs have an assisted line drawing tool. i cant think of the

official name though. it makes inking a whole lot easier.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] intelliriffer:
The main issue with drawing smooth curves for me is the size of tablet. more often than not you end up using the wrist action instead of the forearm action and that makes it or breaks it.

I am thinking on getting a matte screen protector myself as heard that it provides a little friction feels like a better surface.

someone also pointed out to try and place a tracing paper over the screen, haven't tried that as couldn't find where I kept those papers, however i did try with a thin translucent white paper (and setting brightness quite high) and found it does indeed help in drawing smooth curves. :)

I hope some art app maker comes with some tolerance settings for smoothing out the curves, that would be a blessing.

This ROM is still a WIP. I have been able to flash this successfully myself but others have expressed issues with phone FC's. I am currently looking into this issue to find a solution.

Here's another port for you guys, should be functioning right out of the box as I already patched in the data fix.

As usual if you flash your phone you know the risks, be careful.

Original Thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2301724 <------- Be sure to thank sbreen94 for all his hard work!

Download:

-Mirror 1

-Mirror 2

Tweaks should be available via the download area in the original thread.

I already imported the latest ktoonsez kernel so don't worry about flashing it over unless you are trouble shooting.

Enjoy guys!

Did you get permission from the dev to post this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] lballer69:
Are you gonna ask every dev that ports a rom ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] mjs2011:
Well, this is the problem. If he didn't get permission from the dev, it's against XDA rules. Plus, the dev told me personally that he was planning on bringing this ROM to the Sprint variant "soon", so I don't want us to piss him off resulting in him changing his mind.

Trust me, I love the ports because of the options they bring, but I don't want us all sitting in the dark 3 months from now because we pissed off all the devs that were planning on bringing their ROM's to us.

I realize that I'm taking a very unpopular position here, but I'm thinking long term here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development] cerj:
I agree, it is unpopular. .Im with mjs, No harm in making sure permission was given. It is how its done. mjs has been around long enuff to know how this works, and trust me he means no disrespect. I was wondering the same thing, theres been more than a few feathers ruffled recently.No harm in making sure
