Prox Lite

PLEASE READ!
Your phone must have a proximity sensor for this app to work. Phones that have a dual purpose ambient light sensor for proximity usage might have unintended bugs. Please do not leave a bad review if this does not work properly for you. The model of phone and software loaded all come into play on how well this will work. Also, most tablets don't have a proximity sensor, so don't be surprised if it doesn't work.

Prox Lite is a gesture based service that allows you to complete actions without even touching your phone. It uses the accelerometer and proximity sensor to launch these actions. Just tilt your phone in the desired direction and then pass your hand over the proximity sensor. You can get that real Jedi feeling and impress your friends when you launch the browser without touching the phone. The force is strong with this app :)

Prox doesn't do anything during phone calls, allowing for normal proximity sensor functionality. You won't be doing any face gesturing so don't worry :)

Prox Lite is the free version of Prox. With Prox Lite, you can complete four actions: Emulate home button, expand and contract the notification panel, launch your phone dialer, and launch your browser. Since it's a service, it will work in any application on your phone. You could be browsing the web or sending a text message and if you perform one of these actions, then Prox Lite will work.

For many more features, check out Prox Pro. Some thoughts on the pro version:

Prox is a gesture based service that allows you to control certain aspects of your phone without even touching it. You can launch applications, expand and contract your status bar, and even silence your phone. All of this is done by simply waving your hand close to the phone. Imagine the possibilities and the look of amazement on friends faces when you turn your screen off without ever touching a button or the screen :)

Prox also allows you to have several load outs. You can switch your load outs and do completely different actions.

Prox uses the proximity sensor and accelerometer on your phone to do certain actions. Current actions include:

*Expand and contract status bar
*Emulate home button
*Turn off screen
*Toggle ringer mode
*Show some text (Toast)
*Launch an application
*Play a tone

Plus more actions to come!

Prox doesn't do anything during a phone call so you don't have to worry about face gesturing. Your proximity sensor will behave normally during a call.

In order to enable turning off the screen, Prox needs administrative permission. You can still use Prox without this feature if it makes you uncomfortable to grant these permissions. To enable, go to settings and click enable admin. NOTE: IN ORDER TO UNINSTALL, ADMIN PERMISSION MUST BE DISABLED BEFORE DOING SO, OR PROX WILL NOT UNINSTALL!!!

PLEASE EXCLUDE FROM TASK KILLERS OR PROX WILL FREAK OUT!!

Note: If you are running any custom ROM, this may not work correctly. Please verify that your proximity sensor is functional before downloading this...

PERMISSIONS EXPLANATION:
Read Phone State: Required for sensor usage.

If you have any force closes, please press the report button or email me (sempergumbee@gmail.com). I DO look at all of these reports and try to amend the issues.

Recent changes:
Fixed force close issue with settings page.

Bug fixes in service.

This update will NOT reset your loadouts.

BashModo

Thu, 01 Mar 2012 11:15:53 +0000

Welcome to BashModo!

BashModo is a simple yet addicting game where the objective is to destroy all of the green enemies. Bob is your faithful companion and will blast enemies into oblivion with his lasers. Beware of the black boxes because they can get you into trouble.

There are 20 waves per set and there are unlimited sets in the game. Each set gets slightly harder so remember, patience is a virtue. If you find yourself having to put the game down to participate in normal human activities, have no fear. Your progress will be saved and you can pick up exactly where you left off. See how far you can get and post some of your high scores in the comments here!

As I cannot respond to your thoughts in the comments here, visit http://sgmob.blogspot.com/ and tell me what you think. This is my first game and I would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions for future updates. I hope you have as much fun playing BashModo as I did in making it. Happy bashing!

Permissions Explanation:

NETWORK COMMUNICATION
FULL INTERNET ACCESS - Needed for loading in game ads. There are no notification advertisements and no "deals." Just AdMob banner ads at the bottom :)
VIEW NETWORK STATE - Ads need to see whether or not data network is active in order to display the ads.

STORAGE
MODIFY/DELETE USB STORAGE CONTENTS MODIFY/DELETE SD CARD CONTENTS - BashModo writes saved game information to the SDCard, such as scores and certain game settings, which is why this permission is needed.

SYSTEM TOOLS
PREVENT DEVICE FROM SLEEPING - Keeps device from going to sleep while game is running. Does not do this when app is not active, so no potential for battery drain.

Recent changes:
* Added theme chooser. You can now choose your own colors for the game!

* Fixed potential battery drain issue.

* Fixed gameplay bugs.

* Fixed force close when starting game.
