Egg Clock

Egg Clock is a simple timer for Symbian Series60 3rd/5th edition devices. The timer value can be up to 100 minutes. When the timer countdown reaches zero, the audio file selected by the user is played and the screen starts flashing, showing the indication of the extra time. All the actions ... [More] can be executed from the menu of the application, but here's a short list of shortcuts: Press central key to start or stop the timer. Press "c" key to reset the timer press Up/down/left/right to increase or decrease the volume of the notification. On touchscreen devices (5th edition phones such as Nokia 5800XM): Tap the screen once quickly to start or stop the timer tap and hold the screen for about 1 second to reset the timer. Use volume keys to adjust the volume. [Less]

lc-cartrack

OverviewThis program allows turning any GSM phone supporting python and bluetooth into a GPS car antitheft. Upon receiving properly formatted SMS, phone replies with an SMS containing its GPS position and/or uploading position to a web server. Program can work in "one reply" and ... [More] "tracking" mode; in the second case, upon receving the triggering SMS is starts sending location-SMSs (or uploading data)at user-defined time intervals, to allow real time tracking. No subscription to online service required, just a cellphone subscription is required. Variant with SMS sending can be useful in case no PHP-supporting server is available. Written in Pys60, tested on Nokia 6600/6680. DetailsAlternativesThere are several programs around capable of tracking a phone via GPS, but looks like all of them require "free subscription" to some services, or they only allow tracking through GoogleMaps, or just export KML files to be manually loaded into GoogleEarth. Boring. I have a better idea: I publish the source of a PHP script which anyone can store on any server he likes, possibly a free hosting service (which must support PHP, such as http://www.altervista.org ). How it worksThis script receives position data from a program installed on your phone, which can be: LCCarTrack or Trakkcor The first is written by me, in python, and it's currently under development. First version sent position by SMS directly to the phone. New version (currently UNstable) sends data over GPRS; being it a matter of a few hundreds of byte, each upload should cost much less than 1 cent (with my plan I pay 6 euro/MB, i.e. 0.000006 euro/byte , or 0.0006 euro per upload!). The biggest issue with my program is that pys60 does not support socket timeout, so in case of missing network the program locks up! The second program is an opensource j2me midlet: just like my program it allows sending data to any webserver (in my program you have to manually edit the source, in Trakkcor you just edit an option). The main advantage is that (I guess) java is more robust in case of missing network, so it shouldn’t lock up. I think my final choice will be to "couple" trakkcor to LCCartrack, getting it called by LCCarTrack every time an upload is needed. In the meantime, you can use Trakkcor alone to track your mobile: once you authorize it to connect to gprs, it does not ask anymore, so you can start autoupload ("Live tracker") and put the phone on the car (or whatelse) you want to track. Try it: See your current position on a web page or in GoogleEarth!You can try it with these parameters: URL: http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/upload_trakkcor.php NMEA message type: $GPGGA HTTP method: GET Your upload will be stored into two files: http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/trakkcor.txt (history) http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/trakkcor.kml (current position) You can add the second address to GoogleEarth (menu ADD->Network Link) and set your favourite refresh: this will result in your position being continuously updated as you move. :) Don't have a GPS receiver right now? Manually send a fake position and chek it on GoogleEarth, just by opening this url (specify your own coordinates, LAT and LON): http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/upload.php?pos=42.0,12.0 Then check your position on http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/lccartrack.txt and (in GoogleEarth) http://jumpjack.altervista.org/lccartrack/lccartrack.kml GoogleEarth on phone?But not all people has a notebook PC, so here it is another idea: use MGMapsto track the phone on another phone; this program allows displaying position on a map without downloading maps from network, but rather using cached maps, which you can for example produce using Microsoft MapCrunch, to obtain maps even from scanned images! After installing MGMaps, open Application Manager of phone, select MGMaps, and grant permission to allow file system reading: this will prevent MGMaps from asking you for permission every time it loads map from phone. Then, launch MGMaps, and choose Services->View KML : insert the above address for KML file. This will result in MGMaps loading position from network and displaying it on a map on the screen. Unfortunately there is no auto-update option (AFAIK) at this moment, so you have to manually refresh the waypoint. But fortunately an SDK for MGMaps exists (http://www.nutiteq.com/ ), which should allow writing own midlets which just show position on a map (without all other MGMaps options) and implements autorefresh.

mobilegtd

A free GTD (Getting Things Done) application for mobile phones (Series 60)MobileGTD turns your Series 60 phone into a GTD notebook on steroids NEWSIRC ChannelWe have an IRC channel now! It's called #mobilegtd (irc.freenode.net). Come over and be productive ;) MobileGTD be sexy!I am currently ... [More] thinking about giving MobileGTD a new flash lite based user interface. I have done a major rework on the back-end, so new features will be easier to implement here. But we also need a nice UI for all of this! David Allen said something like: Buy the yourself a really good pencil then you will be more likely to write things down with it. And MobileGTD definitely needs work on this end. Get involved!I challenge all users of MobileGTD to think about how a nice UI for MobileGTD would look like. Send me whatever comes to your mind in the form of sketches, pictures, mockups. Maybe someone even knows some flash lite? I am really looking forward to seeing your ideas!! What are the features?Based on a simple file and directory structure (easy synchronization with PC) Use your favourite file explorer to browse your actions Usable as a simple inbox, allowing you to create projects on the fly Searchable project list view Project editing functionality (add/remove actions/infos) Processing functionality (automatically find done actions) Review assistance (find projects with no active next action and projects that have not changed for a certain time) Compatible to GTDFiles Show me something!Ok, have a look at the brand new screencastScreencast Or some screenshotsClick on the images to see the original Flickr page with explanations. The project list view The project details view Creating a new action How does it work?MobileGTD uses simple text files for projects. Each line in a project file can be either an action or an info. When adding an action to a project, a new line is added to the project file and a file is created in a directory structure corresponding to your contexts. If you e.g. create an action "Computer Download new version of MobileGTD" MobileGTD will create a file "Download new version of MobileGTD.act" in a directory called "Computer/". You can also use nested contexts, e.g. "Computer/Online/" to further structur your contexts. To avoid too much typing you can define abbreviations for contexts, you could e.g. define "26" to be expanded to "Computer/Online/". You can then use any file explorer to browse through your actions and delete done ones. When processing projects MobileGTD automatically searches for deleted actions and sets them to done in the project file. How do I install and use it?For installation instructions see Installation. For an explanation of how to use MobileGTD I am planning to make a video, but I'm not sure when I will have the time... SummaryIf this sounds rather complicated, fear not! It's dead simple! All you have to do is use the graphical interface to create and manage your projects and any file explorer to browse through the actions and delete the ones you have done. DonateIf you like MobileGTD and it helps you in Getting Things Done you may also consider making a donation. This is a motivational thing, so don't ruin yourself financially ;) [Less]
