I got the acceptance today... it's not an application that you can download... it's web based and runs in an applet type application with a jnlp installer. Personally, I think it might be ok for prototyping... but good luck making anything that is close to advanced with it. It would be easier just to write the code.

I wish I had the mind of a programmer! I want to be able to code and write apps so bad, but I'm more of a visual guy. I do 3d animation. Every time I try to learn programming my brain begins to melt.
[Android Software Development] settlethestorm:
Agreed! I realllly wanna learn code but it boggles me. This app inventor may not be too advanced, but it'd be fun to tinker with to make small personal apps. Still waiting for my invite lol :impatiently waiting for google to email back:

[Android Software Development] Kermode:
Yeah, I just got one yesterday. But as eatmold says you can't use a custom icon on the phone (though that may be possible to do, but the people who know guard the secret - google say its on the list, but knowing them that will be 2012!)

However it is possible to export and import code (not java, some special google stuff) - so people might be able to exchange and share information.

Get folder organizer. Might be one word. It allows you to place a widget, with a custom icon, that launches either a folder, or an app. So you'll have a stock app in the app drawer, but at least it'll look nice on your desktop

I asked for my invite second day. Still no invite :(

just got it

Took about 3 to 4 weeks. I rather enjoy it. Going to school for computer science and its great for learning basics. Its block dropping but the blocks say the code so if you try its a great teacher. N1

Im still waiting on my invite, perhaps its location based on the invites?

I got mine. I live in Virginia.

It's pretty neat, but I've been having issues with VoiceToText not waiting until my TextToSpeech is finished running.

Like, I'm trying to create a voice driven menu for hands free use so I ask a question and then want it to pause for an answer... Instead it starts talking and the VoiceToText box comes up at the same time. Frustrating...

This makes me feel like I did when I first found out about dreamweaver, you know back when it was still an awesome reliable application, sigh I miss macromedia.
[Android Software Development] Woovie:
Got my invite. :D Made an epic paint application 90 times better than the crappy one in the tutorial.
[Android Software Development] sweRascal:
Got my invite yesterday so they are sending them out.
[Android Software Development] guitargler:
Got mine today, tried to use it.. I suspect the blame is on my Compé, but I'm not sure. It *could* be an incompatibility with CM6RC3, but I doubt that. I'll test it out on my girlfriend's Lappy, I want to make a Pokédex app with an actual GUI. May as well at least TRY on App Inventor, right? And yes, I'm totally f*cking serious. Who wouldn't want a straight legit Pokédex app on their phone? The existing one is all text, boring.
[Android Software Development] 3Shirts:
Apparently they are sending the invitations out manually but randomly so they are just taking a while. Hold tight and you will get it.

It's not all that at the moment anyway. Good fun and nice to get to grips with but until they add a few more tools and some of the upcoming features filter in, it's fairly light.

Having fun with TinyWebDB at the moment though
[Android Software Development] ViViDboarder:
Cool. Can we play with it? Want to share the APK?

I'm working on a hands-free SMS app for car use. Better than the basic because I am working on getting it to prompt you for a reply and then it converts it to text and sends it.
[Android Software Development] mr_black03:
finally got mine today :D seems they are sending out quite a few today, twitter was blowing up earlier with excited ppl.
[Android Software Development] m2thedeep:
I applied as soon as I heard about the program and have yet to receive an invite. :mad:
[Android Software Development] mr_black03:
same here, it seems the more i thought about it, the longer it had been since I did it and I still didnt have it, finally stopped caring so much and w00t today. :D It'll come doot. I'm not going to tell you to be patient, because I was going insane waiting for mine so all I can say is hang in there.
[Android Software Development] ViViDboarder:
A watched pot never boils. ;)

Also, it may have to do with what field you put that you're in. I think they want a good variety of users. For example, they don't want ALL college students. They want college students, Professors, high-schoolers, teachers, independent developers, corporate developers, etc..

I fall in the Independent Developer category.
[Android Software Development] HellSassa69:
I requested an invite about a mounth ago and reveived an email yesterday, that I can use it now :)

so far its great and for a wysiwyg editor its already very powerful.

I hope its a kickstart to easier get into really codeing for me :)
[Android Software Development] theshane11:
I have the opposite problem, I find programming languages easy to learn but badly want to be able to create cool graphics.

The compromise is a graphic guy gets together with a coder and a cool app is born.

The coder puts your ideas into code and you put their ideas into art.

[Android Software Development] Ch4m3l30n:
Signed up when it was first announced and just got my invite on Aug 24. I live in Washington state.

Agreed, I'd like to try it out if the dev is willing to share. Open Source FTW!

That's a great idea; I'd love to help test & dev... I commute by motorcycle and have BlueTooth in my helmet so this would be great for me!

I have over 9 years experience as a Software Quality Assurance Test & Development Engineer, so I can provide significant technical expertise.
[Android Software Development] ViViDboarder:
Yea, if you could help that'd be great. I think the limitation right now is just an issue with App Inventor itself or something. Once I get it to even remotely work with the replies, I'll post the APK.
[Android Software Development] MacaronyMax:
Still none for me i asked on 24th and have asked twice i live in UK so if it is regional im sure its hiiting US first :| :D owell should get it soon hopefully in the meantime i can make cool pics and ideas for apps :D maybe a game like the reflex one in the market that i used to be first on for about a week :D or maybe an idiot test game like for the iphone :p :D oh and that game where you have a course and if you click you go left because in the end dev ruined it

The problem is that it is not wysiwyg. What shows on your computer screen and what appears on your phone looks different. Very hard to get the button layouts right.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pluke100:
hi guys, what path do you need to follow so i can enter the APN settings for 3G. and when the 3G button changes to H, this means it's using HSDPA ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] fighter7139:
Settings--->More--->Connections-->Connections.

Yes, "H" means HSDPA
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pluke100:
didn't manage to find it.

But to use 3G you don't need it i guess.

So i got 3g enabled by the carrier, and my mobile is showing 3g. why isn't it working :S?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] fighter7139:
These settings are for using Internet, not for calls.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] Senax:
3G = Video Call enabled
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] pluke100:
i got 3g to work. however sometimes it uses GPRS. how do you disable it (No data doesn't actually work)

Hi, is there any way of synchronising the Blackstone to Windows 7 but without using Outlook? I have Windows Live Mail up and running.

For example can it be synchronised with this? Alternatively is there any other solution that members can recommend like using other non Microsoft products?

The primary goal is to be able to synchronize contacts (as many fields as possible) from my phone into ideally the windows 7 contacts database
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busaqer:
Hello, Newbie to Android world here - receiving my HTC Desire, hopefully, next week.

Just wanted to share some information regarding an application called "LiveProfile" which will soon be released that incorporates BBM for Androids, if im not mistaken.

Anyone heard of it?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jon_010:
Just looked it up and from what I can see its a replacement for bbm. It will work across iPhone, blackberry and android. Basically MSN messenger for phones.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busaqer:
I've been using a BlackBerry for practically 2 years now and I have to say perhaps the only application that has the BB stand out among its rivals is the BlackBerry Messenger - now with LiveProfile, I'm very excited for the upcoming release of this app.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjwitter:
What's the advantage of this over WhatsApp or PingChat? Those are both multi-platform already, and with WhatsApp there's no need for a user name as it uses your phone number, so anyone in your contacts with the application is automatically in your friend list.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogol:
Yeah, why another one? ... PingChat is OK.

I know, competition is good.

But for this kind of app, I just want ONE ... :)

It seems impossible.

Wait until someone created multi of multi IM of multi IM ...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lukehluke:
PingChat is a good one.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busaqer:
MJwitter: well, quite frankly, i believe there is one prime advantage over iphone's Whatsapp in terms of privacy. With "whatsapp" you do not necessarily have to have the contact on your list, just as long as he has your number he is able to send you msgs - which a lot of people would find annoying (you could probably ignore them, im not sure, but its a terrible feature initially)

gogol + lukehluke: i have never heard of ping chat before. i'll have to google it. However, as i have mentioned earlier i believe this application is intended to merge bbm, whatsapp and so on all under one roof - again I am uncertain of this information; however, hopefully this turns out to be the advantage of LiveProfile.

Nonetheless, thank you for sharing that information.

I just checked it out; however it seems to display an error when i clicked on "Join Now." Is this application not yet released?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funaki:
there are quite a few BBM replacements available. They will never connect to BBM Contacts but provide the same functionality.

1. PingChat

2. Cnectd

3. LucidMessenger

4. Pmessenger

those are all i know of atm.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busaqer:
I'll try ping chat on HTC, just as soon as I get it by next week.

I heard about Pmessenger, but the reviews weren't very good.

LOL try to be patient, my friend.

Ive been trying to do that for the past 24 hrs too. fortunately, a few ppl installed it.

however,they dont need to "convert" to pingchat, ask them to install it and they could use both ;D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve228uk:
Pingchat and Whatsapp? call themselves 'SMS Replacement' apps. Wherein they act like BBM so you can send a message whether a person is online or offline. These apps can only be used between their respective clients i.e. Pingchat-to-Pingchat, Whatsapp?-to-Whatsapp?

IM clients connect through AIM, MSN, Facebook &c.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JexL:
Whatsapp Beta works. Google up Whatsapp android beta and youll find a download link on a facebook page. Install it and then you may get authorization error just wait like 1 day and try again and it will work. Been working well cant find any bugs with it yet.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C_S_R:
I tried what you said but only info seems to say the beta is only available for people living in san fansisco and whatsapp put the app on your phone from there office?, cant seem to find a download link or apk file, if you have a link can you post it or reply to me with a pm to the link please, thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C_S_R:
Ok i found it

http://beta.whatsapp.com/WhatsApp.apk

It installs fine but doesnt seem to work as you need to register to be a beta tester.

:(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JexL:
yea like i said install it it will fail just wait and try again tommorow and it will start working. lots of people have reported success after waiting a while
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C_S_R:
Cool, i'll update in a day or 2 if its working, did you email them to request to be a beta tester or just try it after a few days and it worked without emailing them?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JexL:
Didn't send an email
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C_S_R:
Cool, its started working.

Ok, my quick review - pingchat vs whatsapp

Its alot faster than pingchat in terms of messages being delivered, sometimes pingchat lags a very long time and also pingtchat soelmetimes doesnt give notifications unless you open the app, so whatsapp wins on those two.

But pingchat has a MUCH better look and feet to it, and it works on phone numbers & ID's so you can use either, but whatsapp only works over phone numbers, so unless i have the persons phone number i cant message them on whatsapp, but on pingchat you can just use there id and dont need there phone number so pingchat wins on that.

So both have goods & bads, ping chat is free though which is a plus, if you check in the account info in the whatsapp beta, it says it expires in November 2010, so i asume thats when it goes live in the android marketplace, it also has an upgrade option so it will definatly be a paid app when its released and have a limeted free use period :(

More people use whatsapp so its better "at the moment", but pingchat has a much better feel to it, so hopfully more people start using pingchat.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enflick:
Thanks for the post. We at PingChat! are squashing bugs daily! Since messages are sent over Data messages are generally sent instantly unless a bug occurs. We admit there are still some but everyday we move closer to being bug-free.

As a FREE app we really do appreciate the love we get from our users. It helps us grow and improve!

(In regards to not having many users - we have had over 100,000 android downloads alone in just over a week)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Busaqer:
Ivec had my share of trouble with pingchat. It's a very superb application except for a few setbacks, but hopefully these would be fixed and begotten its official release we could see major alterations and add-ons to the features.

Many regards to the users who posted here and the developers of pingchat specifically. Wishing you all the best of luck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenble:
Thanks Enflick for replying. I'm connected to almost everything, BBM, Whatsapp, Pingchat!, but I guess the overriding factor is really what network/app my friends are on. Try upping your popularity and it'll grow exponentially. ubiquity of BBM is what keeps it so popular, imo
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogol:
Well, the Holy Grail of instant messaging in Android is the one that support the Android Cloud to Device Messaging:

http://code.google.com/android/c2dm/index.html

The "push" notification for Android, which should keep battery usage to minimum for instant messaging type of application.

Currently, there is none using this technology.

I know, this C2DM is only for Android 2.2, but developer could still provide an option. If we must wait until all Android phones are upgraded to 2.2, it will never happened.

The thing that I don't like with current IM apps (all of them) is they are eating quite a lot of battery life!

Except GTalk, because it is already using C2DM. But none of my contacts using it :)

Hey, does anyone know what the optimum resolution for a Wildfire wallpaper would be? I'm going by the assumption that users will have HTC Sense enabled and will have 7 screens to scroll through.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] zephyri-xr:
It doesn't matters. When you choose a wallpaper to apply you can crop it to fit ;) Just drag the frames and the selection will be enlarge ;)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Trism:
Yeah I know that works, I just wondered if there was a resolution in which the picture didn't need cropping or anything.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Aeronyx:
480x320 is the resolution for wallpaper,with this resolution you cover 7 screens of htc sense.
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Trism:
Works like a charm, thanks dude :)
[Wildfire Themes and Apps] Infinitum:
Use Wallpaper Set & Save when applying a bakground image, it will give you the best quality rather than the stock method that somehow lowers the image quality.

This is useful .. Thanks.

Is there any way to assign power button to screen off action?
