    Hi draffodx, that means there is no next/prev subpage on that page, most aertel pages do not have subpages, but things like movie reviews and cinema listings etc do.

    ah i get it now, yeh it works on the cinema page.

    would it be posssible to go to the next or last page number via swipes?

    for example I like to check whats on now on 180 then the movies on 182 and then the movie info on 183

    Right I see what you mean, so swiping should keep going up through sub pages until no more are left then jump onto next full page? I think I could change it to work like that alright, I will have a look a tonight, thanks for suggestion though, the more things I can do to improve it the better.

    Also if anyone has any improvement ideas for "Dublin Traffic Cameras" app let me know too, cheers.

    or maybe swipe up and down to increment and decrement the page numbers and left and right for sub pages?

    If thats possible I've no experience with gestures


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭tw0nk


    thats definitely possible, I can do that either! I will experiment tonight and see, thanks again.

    Heya Draffodx, I have added extra gestures now to JAertel 3.1, controls are now as follows:

    swipe up = next page
    swipe down = prev page
    swipe right = next subpage
    swipe left = prev subpage

    Hope you enjoy! Thanks again for suggestions and feedback

    Should it not be the other way round, down for next page, up for previous, feels wrong IMO. Left and right are fine


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,361 ✭✭✭tw0nk


    Heya PMT, I guess the reason I made it up for next page was that the page numbers are incrementing, but whats the general consensus? Would people prefer down swipe to be next page or up swipe? it would only take a few minutes to change it but I want to get the preferred option before/if I change it, thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,731 ✭✭✭Bluefoam


    Down swipe makes more sense for 'next' page


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Yeah downswipe for next feels more natural

    Anyone know of an application that will allow me to answer phone by touching screen? or put a menu option so an answer call button pops up. My g1 has water damage and the answer key does not respond

    I for one would like to see a section got Android apps. Does anyone know how to get paid apps in Ireland.

    At the moment the only way of getting paid apps is to get a UK/US/HK/Canada sim card,put it in your phone and get them over your phone via WIFI.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4 kiltubber


    Ok, I might do that, cheers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,014 ✭✭✭elderlemon


    Or root your phone and then run market enabler.

    I thought of that but after a read of a guide to rooting the phone i figured it was easier to leave well alone.

    Has anyone actually got paid apps working this way? I've rooted my phone and have market enabler installed, now I can see all the paid apps and download free 1's like 'amazon mp3 uk' which I usually couldnt see, I can even pay for apps but then they seem to block the download. It says "download failed" always after a few seconds.


  • Registered Users Posts: 47 self_sentered


    My mistake, paid apps download fine, just the latest version of Cyanogen mod I was running has a bug which prevents downloads bigger than a few Mbs.

    Just seen this app which could be handy for business users

    jAertel's a great app! Good to see boardsie is the dev. I use it regularly to check flights etc. Anyone looking into making an app for the RTE player similar to the beeb player? I use Call Track also. Its a great way to keep track of support calls when I'm oncall. Think it only supports 2.1 though.

    I was just wondering if anyone had managed to download this app. It works as a remote for your blu-ray player over wifi, if the player is connected to your router. I have an unrooted Hero, and it's a free app, but I can't find it in the market. Any tips?

    Had a look. No sign here with 2.1 hero with market enabler.

    I can see it with 1.6 G1 and market enabler. Dev must have been unable/forgotten to add support for 2.1.

    Standard Meteor Hero and I can see it with a UK SIM in it

    That's a bit strange, if it really is a free app. I have an ordinary Hero (1.5 without market enabler) and the developer's website says it works for 1.5+

    Anyone else having problems with WaveSecure?

    Every time i turn my phone off/on the wavesecure software loads up, locks the phone and sends messages to my nominated contacts. It also starts trying to track the phone....

    I went into setting in the wavesecure menu in the phone but the option "add this sim to the safe sim list@ is greyed out....

    Any idea's?

    I contemplating removing it but I know once i do then my phone will go missing and I wont be able to track it....

    I agree with Dingatron, It would be great to get RTE player working on android! Hopefully the app apears soon...

    RTE Player
    Ive looked into this briefly about a month ago, but on till the release of flash for the nexus, I cant do much more on this.

    But I have signed up to beta testing of flash so when its available Ill give it a go...

    That would be excellent. Is it dependant on the new flash version?

    Is the Flash for Android only going to work on Nexus One/HTC Desire other phones with a 1Ghz processor?

    So does it mean people using Hero or Legend won't be able to use it?
