Phono on XDA ;-)

With great pride I will point out the review made by egzthunder1 on xda-developers.com .

Widget to Show Off Your Operator – Phono for Android
October 9, 2010 By: egzthunder1


"It is funny to see how we are never satisfied. There was quite a bit of development a few years back (and several apps) to remove the operator logo from our screens. Android does not display any of this information by default, so XDA members apus2 and Mæz made some widgets to bring that back and show your love for your carrier.

Aside from displaying the name of the operator, the widget does display other useful pieces of information such as signal strength, data connection, and most importantly, if you are roaming or not. The app recently went to version 1.3, so if you feel like getting this widget, make sure that you leave feedback for the dev."

Thanks egzthunder1!!

German provider issue

=- SOLVED -= rel. 1.3b

From today some german user experience an issue on the 2x1 widget, the connection type disappears and the line name take place.....
This happen because Phono from rel. 0.9 support multi numbers sim and display the line name on widget at place of connection type, the German provider decided, to write in this field else the sim has a single number, for this reason Phono give more importance to the line name as the connection type.
Tomorrow Phono will get a fast update for to fix it.
I`m sorry with the german users experience this issue.
Thanks all

Why Phono 1.2 crash and we don't see?

I wish again ask sorry to everybody get this issue!

Why Phono 1.2 crash?
This issue happened when you are in an area with many antennas and over all when you'are across to more cells, the problem is Phono listen every signal strength changed (1 asu) and it continue to refresh the widget, this operation make work the cpu too much and at the end lag the device.

Why I didn't see the problem?
Becouse I develop this release during holydays (I'm stupid I know...;) ) in a place very quite and without many antennas......the guys tested it was too in a quite place .....unlucky? MORE!!!

These are the conclusion of some days of test and I wish to give a big big thanks to:

• Maez (tester coordinator)
• Dodotech
• Zoggermaster
• Mrot2321
• Crazyschranz
• MastaPole
• Dowser
• Biesti2004
• Mat738
• Manuel

Phono 1.2 crash Phono 1.1b back on market

I'm very sorry for the release 1.2, I test for some days on Hero 2.1, G1 1.6 rooted and Tattoo 1.6 and I didn't get any error all is (now again working fine).....so I decided to publish it.
I recive the first mail after an hour and he tell me about the issue, I start to understand.....but I wasn't able to replicate the error, when I saw some bad comment on the market I decided to unpublish it and replace the last 1.1b.

I'm very sorry with everybody get this problem, I'm absolutely in good faith, I never and never wish to give problem with my apk to anybody, I hope you all could belive me and apologize.

I need to teel to the people write comment on market that it's a right they have, but will be great and nice to help the developer and write a mail.

[UPDATE 14/o8/2010]
I think to understand the problem....I test it in a place where there is not so much antennas and the signal is quite, so Phono don't work much....but in a city or in places with many signal traffic Phono work hard and use CPU resource.....
