Play audio on call

poomalairaj.r@gmail.com (Poomalairaj Ramasubramaniam) — Wed, 13 Jun 2012 07:28:16 +0000

The feature I desire very much was the ability to play an audio file while I am on call with my friend.

The usecase is automatic voice responder. When someone call me, the app should pick the call and plays some audio files based on the rules preset. Using this app I can tell the callers that "I am busy now" or "call me later" or "number not available (this is for telecallers promotion calls)"

This will be cool. It seems recaller app does the same in the other way. It records all the system audio. I think it may also be possible to play audio to the voice call.

Remember the milk

pierre@simpliville.fr (pierre edelman) — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 07:27:45 +0000

Hello Community,

How about a Remember the milk client for our N900 ?

It is a great productivity app to list and manage tasks.

As I see it, it would feature a widget with the main tasks diplayed per priority, name or due date (regular parameters on RTM).

Sync would be possible online. Actually one can subscribe through Google ID + Pwd (and I already use Google's agenda and contacts and Gmail as quite some people do; but it's a pain to sync).

What do you think?

PS : I Am no developper though and I cannot start or help as far as coding. If anything, I can translate from English to French.

Video recording with sensor pixel based zoom

TiagoTiagoT+maemo.org@gmail.com (Tiago Estill de Noronha) — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 22:11:33 +0000

I would like a program to record videos with the main camera (preferably at least as good as the default one), but with zoom functionality that instead of blowing up zoomed out pixels, zooms in into the sensor pixels, cropping out pixels outside and keeping the pixel size of the image constant (the sensor has 5MP resolution, if you're recording a 800x480 video you can either discard every Nth pixel (or average groups of N pixels) and get a full frame, or get the full resolution rectangle measuring 800x480 pixels that is in the center of the sensor discarding the surrounding pixels, or a mix of the two approaches for intermediary zoom)

It really annoys me when i see on TV amateur video where people use digital zoom (blowing up the size of the pixels, lowering the effective resolution) trying to get a better image and ending up only making things wors

secure bags with bluetooth handsfree!

trash@pathfinder.gr (nas nahhh) — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:22:15 +0000

WHY?

Often I travel by ship / train long for many hours. Often I sleep. Every time I am afraid of my bag, someone could steal it as I sleep.

POSIBLE SOLUTION?

It would be awsome if I could put my bluetooth handsfree in my bag and have my n900 in my pocket. n900 could run an application that checks every 2 - 3 seconds BlueTooth signal strength ( maybe could be configurable range ) and if the strength gets low or none, then n900 will alarm loudly / vibrate.

I hope my idea was clean. And since I don't know much about programming ( only php :( ) I hope someone will find intresting my idea and make it!

Automatically Disable Vibration when on charging

aman18narang@yahoo.com (Aman Narang) — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 17:03:22 +0000

Hi,
i am not programmer but just an idea which i guess should not be very difficult to implement.

Usually we keep our phones on a hard surface when on charging mode and so when i get a call or a msg it vibrates, scratching the lower body. Plus, i also dont like the sound of vibration on a hard surface.

Can anyone make a hack that disables vibration mode when charging and re-enables it when removed from charging mode?

Winetasting app

jonas@backman.ax (Jonas Backman) — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 14:21:29 +0000

Hello!
I´m looking for a winetasting app where you could keep track of wines you have tasted. In this app you should be abel to add facts about the wine like what wine it is, apperence, nose, taste and food pairing. It would also be nice if there is a way to rate the wine and add a picture of the bottle.
Is anyone interested in helping me with this?

Location based reminders

me@farewellutopia.com (Reto Bachmann) — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 05:21:13 +0000

I would like to bind alarms/reminders to a geo location rather than (just) to a time. I should be able to have a set of spots I visit regularly and be able to set an alarm that goes off the next time I'm near a selected spot. Also I should be able to set an alarm that goes off the next time I'm back at the curent location.

Usage scenarios:

Remind me to buy a tooth brush next time at the supermarket
Remind me to take my bicycle when I'm back here
