I own a TMobile hTC HD7 and I have been waiting patiently for a "Restart/Soft Reset" Application to hit the Marketplace. I am actually quite surprised that not more people are interested in a simple app like that. There are countless times when my phone will start acting up or not loading applications properly, so I am constantly restarting my phone. A soft reset app would be a great addition to my phone app collection. This is more of a request as opposed to a rant. While I'm not as talented as some of the developers here, but I am quite sure that a simple restart application wouldn't be insanely hard to develop. Is there anyone out there that is willing to help me out? Or anyone else who thinks this would be a good idea? Or am I alone in this? Lol
Sent from my HD7 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
yeah Me too.. I agree with you.. I hope someone will make a restart software or a task manager software...
Well its nice to know that I wasn't the only one who would like to see a Soft Reset Application with the Windows Phone 7 theme and feel as the UI. I hope someone amazing comes across this thread and makes this a reality.

Does it actually need a UI? Wouldn't a tile pinned to start do just fine? I mean, what would be included in the UI apart from a "reboot" button?
Well i guess it wouldn't need some crazy elaborate UI.... Just an icon nice enough to put on my home page.

Has a skilled developer heard my plea? And is willing to develop this totally useful application?

i am with you on this one, we need soft reset!
yes lets make the developers aware!

I personally don't see a need for such an app but I'll knock something together over the weekend. So basically just an icon you place on your home screen that, when pressed, reboots your phone? right?
Yes something along those lines.... Obviously something that kinda fits the whole Windows Phone 7 Metro Theme... But the reason why I thought a UI would be necessary... Would be a Settings page... To have the icon that is placed on the homeacreen able to do different functions that each user could specify on their own. But definitely a way to simply Restart the phone...
Sent from Projekt hTC HD7
And yea man.. Thanks a lot for attempting this.... Like I have stated before... I am not a developer myself otherwise I would've made something like this a while ago... But I am quite sure that this wouldn't be an insanely difficult task.... But regardless your efforts are well appreciated... Looking forward to seeing this evolve.

Well, that just confused me again
Either you want a tile which will reboot your phone (for which I personally see no use - as it's easy enough to just press the power button for 2 seconds) or you want ... err, well ... something completely different
In any case, I've written an app that will do just this - clicking it will ask you if you want to reboot or shutdown the device. No bells or whistles - this is all it does. Will have to tidy up the code a bit, but I'll get it attached here later tonight or tomorrow.

You'd be surprised
There are no APIs available for this so I've had to write native code to get it working - which means it will never be available in the marketplace and will only run on developer-unlocked devices.
Yes, this will be a handy tool. Another added feature I've missed on WP7. This & a screen capture app are all I'm really missing, app-wise that is.
O man.. That kinda sucks for me... I don't have a unlocked device... Mine is Tmobile hTC HD7... but whatever then... I'm glad someone out there tried.. And allowed others to benefit from it... Thanks

Hi all have used the DLL Import work here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1006331
To create a simple restarter. Click the app and restart your phone. As it uses the native API's it can't be put on the marketplace but for anyone with a dev unlocked phone simple deploy the XAP and all is good.

Hello guys. I would like to request a one hundred push ups app.
This is the website: hundredpushups.com/index.html
And there is already an iphone app for it. Maybe someone is able to make the same thing? So a little stopwatch + reminder when you need to push up and the weeks etcetera.
Great thanks!
I could probably make something like this. But it would have to be on my backburners until i finish up FFP_LockScreen (which shouldn't be too much longer). And put in the time that VisualGVoice deserves (*sigh*). If there were incentive to make such an app, I could push it up my To-Do list, but realize that my other apps have incentives as well (both monetary and challenges to my coding abilities).
It wouldn't be too hard to make, in fact. If someone wants to dev it, but needs the concepts on how to code it, I would be more than glad to help that way.

I don't suppose you'd have time to modify imgresize to report back the image dimensions? I love the app, but I would love it even more if I fed it an argument like "-find res" - and it returned the x and y dimensions, so that I can determine whether an image needs resizing or not. Sorry for the ot.

I will consider this after I release the next version of LateReader.
By the time can somebody post the screenshots from the iphone application. The screenshots really help a lot when developing a GUI intensive application.
Here are all the images you need:
itunes.apple.com/nl/app/hundred-pushups/id301174591?mt=8
Edit:
And if someone is developing it, could you please bring out a Qvga version first? I got a palm treo pro

If I happen to start developing this, it will have to be resolution independent then (usually no big deal), because I have a HD2 (WVGA).
Also the link contains only two images of the iphone app as far as I see. If we could have more screenshots (one for each screen), that would help a lot. I know, the concept is already very simple, but still having some screens to start with makes the development process real faster.
Edit : actually the link contains 5 images but still not all the screens covered. OK, whatever, this at least something to start with.
Some more images are over here,

I too have this app for my ipod touch and I have the sit-ups one. I been thinking about making this as an app, which should be simple enough. The only thing I need to figure out is the number of push ups required for each days etc.
For example, when you first use it you are suppose to do as many as you can and then enter that number. From there the program works out how many push ups you have to do each day. How do you work that out?

You can use the tables provided in the website. (www.hundredpushups.com, etc.)
nice! I will take a look
Wanted to say the same, check out the tables @ the website. when you start up the app you can just choose your table and from there a little timer appears and you have to do the pushup's your supposed to do
I have started work on this application and will keep you posted with updates. Any idea for a program name? Don't really want to call it "100 pushups"

Can I help you with the beta... PM me.
Push it to the limit!
Could i be a beta tester?
After just discovering the hundred push up site the other day and deciding to do it; it took one quick search to find you guys have just started making this program!
Would love to help with any beta testing if I could be useful!
You can all be beta testers
There are 3 main stages/versions I'm aiming for.
Functionality - This will be the first version which will have a rubbish GUI but its purpose will be to make sure the program works.
GUI - This will be as above but a nice polished GUI to run it :-D
Final Build - After I post the GUI version I will be asking if anyone wants features added or something changed etc. This version will have those changes.
Here's what I currently have and testing in the Functionality version.
* Databased filled with the 6 weeks programs.
* Main menu with 3 buttons. "Today's Program", "Log/Charts" and "Good Form". The last 2 buttons are currently disabled.
* Today's Program displays a test screen after every week and will create a program for the next week based on the results.
* Today's Program displays the week number, Day, number of sets and the number of reps for each set. There is also a working timer for the rest periods.
* After each program has been completed the data is recorded.
At the moment everything seems to be working, I simulated 2 weeks worth and everything recorded and the correct programs loaded etc. So, if I continue as I am I may have a first release ready by the weekend for people to play with.
Hi there,
I had a discussion with my brother on his new iphone and he showed me a software to keep track of his sit up, push up, .... and what ever sessions. It would use the gsensor to count and also check the angle of the situps and correct if necessary.
Now it annoyed me I don't have anything like that on my HD2. Is there anything similar somewhere?
Thanks
Michael
What is the name of that specific app with the gsensor count?
I wish there were some decent work out loggers for us winmo gym guys.

had seen this already, however if I understand it correctly this is just a tracker where I can enter manually. I would like an app where I can "wear" my mobile and the app tracks push ups and situps automatically.
that app would great... i honestly envy iphone users for this kind of practical apps. on the other hand, there is a nice app (not exactly what you want) that you might to take a look at: MyPersonalDiet from VidaOne. Hope it helps.

this is interesting, so does this mean we will be able to download mp3s and such through the web browser and access them using this like we can on windows mobile?
i doubt. it appears to just be an app, so unless it's homebrewed to use interop to do it in which case i don't see it getting into the market place.

if you read his web site you will see that it is only for homebrew , and that is the best that can happen for a file explorer

I really hope that schaps either releases the source code, or doesn't obfuscate it so other developers can make use of this.
yea likewise. though based on readings, i believe he's just calling HTC's interop service to pull the file listings that way.

One wish I have:
In the folder "Windows", if I mark one file, open this and go back,
its a litle bit sad, that open after from the begining "Windows", and begin not at the last opening.
You have after to scroll a long way down, till you are at the last file you see.
But its only a detail. ;-)
Very good work!

Zune likes to relock the device which causes that error... you just need to unlock it again to get it working.... very fun game of unlocking all the time...
There's one bug: sometimes after backing to the previous folder the list displays each item twice. Except that, the app works perfectly.

Hi I also really tried but I can not find how to install this on my HD7
Can you or somebody please explain how ?
Did any one had success in copying files from WP7 to PC or the other way around?
I used the zune storage hack and copied some word documents on to the device, in the same folder I have put 2 ringtones I know work using ringtone installer from chevron, some photos and other files.
Sadly I can not find them anywhere on the device via Touchxplorer?
Any ideas?
The same the other way around. Found all the folders holding my music/videos (albait not with original file names) and tried copying other files in there including wp7 ringtones. I can see all items that were there when zune added them but none of the one's I copied.
Any solution?
how can i install it on my phone?
Currently I am building and shortly will be done with my Facebook Metro App for Windows 8 and the idea is to have 2 UI's.
1). Full Screen w/Most Features.
2). Half-Sized w/Basic features so you can use your favorite App's while still accessing your Facebook features, feed and etc.
Question is, what would YOU want added to either UI?
Well u should post some pictures of the program so we can see what it has and hasnt so we can give you opinions When its really upload it and i will test it for sure
After or on Tuesday, I can share the design as I am scheduled with a MS Engineer to help my App have the final touches and tested as well and hopefully first Facebook App in the Store.
Also thanks for responding.

Well FBMetro is really just the project name, Facebook already has an App registered as Facebook Metro.
The half-sized mode is in fact the snapped mode... I have included old-SS of which the actual App does not represent anymore as of my meeting with my Microsoft sponsor who wouldn't permit me to go any further with the design, even though I was nowhere near done lol.
Note: Job Discovery is my other App for Win8 and is actually currently a free WP7 App. In the photo you can see that my Facebook App can be used by other Developers to post information from their App using my pre-established Auth to the end-users Facebook Account. Yes, they can actually implement my App to be used by theirs.
nice, where can I get it?
It's coming, very soon!
and here is my idea....
as you may know in our country (iran) we can't access FACE.BOOK...we have to use v.p.n and other pro.xy apps...
it'll be gr8 if you add setting to your app so that we can add pro.xy and these kind of things...(especially pro.xy...)

and of course sorry for my bed english
Cool App!!
I am actually working with someone from Microsoft to get the App Certified, I had to really redo A LOT of the UI as they have made the standards really rough.
Right when it's ready, I will immediately provide the link.
