Hi,
What do you use to have currency info?
Which could be updated manually or automatically.
I'm actually looking for something on this but haven't yet found any suitable app (currencies are crucial for my day to day). ATM I'm using an app named Search Currency (just a currency converter) which just adds currency exchange rate data for any number you type in QSB. You scroll to the bottom of the results and click on more results > search calculator and it shows you the exchange data for any input>output currencies you've already configured in the app itself (1 in and ~66 out are the default possible). Very rudimentary; it's auto update since it requires Google net access to function. Something similar to the Stocks app would be much better for me.

try currency converter, its available in the market as is free. nice interface as well..
You can use HTC stock app.just type in for example British pound against Euro is:
GBPEUR=X
sorry for misleading info.i just tried and on android this doesn't work.it worked fine on my previous HTC phones.
Sorry again.
aCurrency by Sam Lu? Gives a list of 4 currencies you choose and shows the exchange rate.

I have tried a few but this one i liked the most 'Exchange Rates' its free in the app market.

Yes. I did it.
I found a program that allows me to use Danish market on my android.
I don't now if this has already been postet, but here it is:

Why not just use "marketenabler" ?
Sent from my Hero using Tapatalk
Market access is based on Market enabler, improved, without ads and so on. Just like Superuser 2.1 is to the old Superuser app as we all know.
Oh... I didn't know. Last time I tried to use marked enabler, it only worked on Android 1.5, hence the reason I thought I found something fantastic.
Marketenabler works just fine on everything above 1.5. But must say Market access seems a bit faster to set. It also for the nice feature to enble it on boot

hmm, market enable worked but no set on boot and also no "top paid" tab, market access thinks that I do not have root!
Try the latest 1.0.6 version, root check has been improved. If the issue still remains, please post logcat.
Maybe I am missing something, but how does this app help if your country is not supported by Google Checkout yet?
is there a workaround for that?
I must say I have yet to have any problems switching betwean markets though. Just not sure how to actually buy apps using it...
My country Malaysia supports Google Checkout but no Paid apps, Market Access worked like a charm.
When using MarketEnable/Access, you need to kill the app and clear cache or else the market will not display paid apps.
Somehow, it stopped working recently, returning a SIM emulation error. Anyone else having this behavior?
Full list of mobile operator codes
The full list of mobile operator codes on wikipedia:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code
To get a code for use with MarketAccess combine both MCC and MNC.
Example: to set Vodafone Spain take MCC (214) + MNC(01) = 21401.
Hi, is it possible to create a app that will just contain a link to mobile website (bookmark of some sort but an actual app). So when users click on the app on their devices they are taken directly to my mobile website. I know there is google app inventor but I couldn't find tutorial on how to do that. Any idea?
Yes, an app can either launch a url which will open in the phones browser or you can put a webview(browser) inside the App.
do you know if I can find a tutorial on how to do that? How do I make custom app icon and so on?
http://tinyurl.com/6jojl4j
The icons you need to make in a graphics program and output them in the required sizes, go to the official android dev site there are photoshop templates and everything.
Sent from my GT-I5700 using XDA App
Its not that had to do with app inventor. There are two ways. One which will launch the defualt browser to the site (easy) or one which will create a webview inside the app using a third party app (hard). I made a youtube video on how to do it the browser way a while back. It takes about 5 min. Then another 10min if you want to put it on the market. Both vies can be found on youtube by searching cmoney12051

I was having trouble with apps so I restored the phone to factory settings.
When I'd finished restoring using MyBackups and the Google account, I noticed that, when I pulled down the status bar, below the line of last used apps were 6 apps icons and labels. I thought they'd go away when I restarted the phone but they don't - they are permanently there.
Just to make it clear, I'm not talking about the recently used apps which appear in a horizontal line of 8 apps. This is a column of 6 apps each taking up one line.
Always the same 6 apps:
Notepad
MPE Tasks
MPE Notes
HP ePrint Home&Biz
File Expert
Driod 2 CAD
See the screen shot attached.
I can't find a way of getting rid of them and can't find out why they are there.
I've searched the forum but all I can find is discussions about removing the recently used app line, not this problem.
Definitely odd! Has anyone come across this or got any ideas? Unless someone has, I guess that the next step is to uninstall and reinstall them and see what happens?
Brian
Just a gues but maybe you installed an app that does bad things to your dhd so find that app and uninstall it ?
Apps still appear on notification / status bar (after restoring to factory settings)
Update:
I've uninstalled Notepad which was the first of the apps but it didn't disappear from the notification area until I restarted the phone. Then it went OK. I then reinstalled Notepad and the app reappeared in the notification area so, that didn't work.
Yes, there must be either a faulty app or something wrong with the setup of the phone that is keeping the app shortcut there.
I guess that my only solutions are:
1 Put up with it.
2 Restore to factory settings again and hope it gets back to normal but that's a lot of hassle.
3 Delete and reinstall each app in turn until I find one that removes the problem. That's a task and a half as I have loads of apps installed (and they are all established ones with 4 - 5 stars).
4 Can anyone suggest anything else or a suspect app for this type of behaviour?
Thanks
Brian
Could be a rouge application hijacking your status bar every time you restart your phone. If your rooted do a nandroid, flash a new ROM and see if the issue persists (obviously reinstall each app, after each app install restart and see what happens)
Sent from my Desire HD using Swype beta for Android!
Haha, sensible advice but . . .
I have about 120 apps so that would take light years! Also, I'm not rooted. Thanks for the suggestions though.
The odd thing is that I've had all the apps installed before without probs & I've looked at each one to see if they are the slight bit dodgy - none. Or the type that could affect the status bar - only one (Elixir) which I've uninstalled to test it. It isn't the problem.
I've sent a message to HTC but no reply yet. I have a horrible feeling that I'll have to reformat again but I don't know if I'll end up with the same problem. Do you think an upgrade to ICS later might sort it?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD A9191 using xda app-developers app
Might do actually! Normally when they release a new update they fix a s**t ton of bugs so yeah an update to ICS might just fix it for you
Sent from my Desire HD using Swype beta for Android!
Can you go to Play Store>Installed apps, take screenshots page by page of all the apps in that list and put them here? Or put them in a Dropbox folder and link to it. You can also to to the Google Play website on your computer, go to 'My Android apps' and take screenshots of each page there.
I'm guessing you have an app, some kind of quick shortcut app that's putting these shortcuts in your notification bar as a persistent notification. You've forgotten about the app or didn't realise what it was before installing it. Me or someone will look through your list for such an app and tell you.

Hi Sashank
Yes, I'm sure you are right but, I don't have the knowledge to jusge which one it is. I have tried uninstalling a couple of the more obvious ones without success.
I've used App Referrer and deleted the Play Store links to leave the names (except where the names are identical). The phone is not rooted and, as you'll see from the list, I'm in the UK.

Thanks for looking at the apps list and I hope you have some ideas. I'm trying to avoid a hard reset as it always takes me so long to get everything back to how I like it.
Actually, on that subject, is there a way of backing up and restoring the email settings - I have 6 - 7 accounts and not only does it take ages to reset that lot but I always struggle to get the colours the same as previously. MyBackup Pro is good but doesn't seem to restore the email settings.
Many thanks.

The long awaited Samsung Drive Link has finally released by Samsung to the Samsung App store :
http://www.samsungapps.com/topApps/topAppsDetail.as?productId=G00008708915
This adds Mirrorlink support to the Galaxy S3 so that it can communicate with Mirrorlink compatible devices such as the Alpine ICS-X8 app link station.
Off to test it now..
any chance you can pull the apk for me buddy:cyclops:

AFAIK the app has been released in the UK. Cant find the logic but it might only work there for now.
Or maybe only on UK based roms.

I'm in the UK and have the same issue. I suspect that its a bug at the moment judging by the comments on the samsung app page :
http://www.samsungapps.com/topApps/topAppsDetail.as?productId=G00008708915&isCommentCall=Y#
Its new software so its probably work in progress still as there seems to be limited features at the moment.
BTW, has anyone tried Sat Nav software other than Goole Navigator yet? e.g. CoPilot? Does it work?

It installs and works fine on the latest CM10 release. Seems it doesn't need Touchwiz to function properly
Been testing it and so far Navigation supposed to work with Google Navigation and TelNav I'm currently on a country not supported by both but it recognises them

yes i noted it keeps the phone on even if you turn screen off, which said turn sceen off with nav running and by by gps lock..
almost forgot only numbers i could chose was ones i set as favorites
I bought this phone specifically for the MirrorLink capability. Thanks for posting the apk. I'm going to try to sync it with my car on my way home.
Anyone know why they didn't make the app available in the US?
they just released update for this app, i hope they fixed the screen timing out issue and running in the background draining battery issue

Thanks for the info. Looks like the screen time out issue is fixed. Can't see much else new. Wish they would post a changelog with each release. Anyone know if any other Sat Nav Apps are supported yet other than the default Navigator?
Anybody have the latest APK for us USA users?
at the moment it's buggy.
confirmed on my device:
- screen won't turn off some times while installed (not even started). solved uninstalling
- overheating and higher battery usage while installed (think solved uninstalling)
one question: someone did test it with mirrorlink car monitor? i really wanted to buy one, (sony)
but i want to know if you can manage only the drivelink screen or also other applications..
if only the drivelink it's not really interesting...!

I have an Alpine ICS-X8 app link station which uses Mirrorlink from the GS3. Currently the only applications that are supported at the moment are the ones in drive link. i.e. Google Navigator Sat Nav, and Internet Radio apps TuneIn and Radioclock App. More app support should hopefully be coming.
Currently the Nokia Drive supports MirrorLink the best. It lets you run just about every application from the phone using a feature called "MirrorMode". Here's a demo on youtube showing Angry Birds running on the car dash headunit via Nokia phone....

Samsung need to pull their finger out of their arse as DriveLink sucks at the moment compared to the Nokia Drive offering.
Samsung DriveLink I would class as Alpha software at this stage, as it has so many problems and limited features.

Sign in to Google market with your gmail creds and push a security app to the tablet from the market
This will push the app to the tablet if it is still using your creds.
There was an app - I can't remember the name - perhaps "Android Rescue" ?? - that could be commanded via SMS even though remotely installed (That is, not manually started at least once after install). Obviously this exact app won't be useful in your case but there should be other apps that implement a remote wipe or alarm via their website e.g. Lookout)
Some apps have an execute-on-install attribute; perhaps Lookout or other security app will let you remote wipe or remote geolocation.
None of this will work if the tablet has been wiped or the Google creds are NOT still in use.
There are several implications of that "cred" - you should make some quick decisions.
