hola mi idea es que vuestra aplicación es de las mejores para bloquear el teléfono pero no pone las llamadas perdidas de las personas que te han llamado. Hacer lo mismo que los sms . esta genial falta incorporar llamadas perdidas y el calendario que se puedan ver las entradas y cumpleaños. Gracias.

Allow widget to use more of the screen.

2010-09-02T09:40:15-07:00

Robbo suggested:
Trying to use CalWidget or any of the other agenda widgets on my Galaxy S, and I can't seem to use a widget that uses more than 1/2 the screen vertically. I've got more free screen, but FlyScreen says the widget is too large.

allow more than 2 "normal" Android widgets

2010-08-31T12:08:54-07:00

Iria suggested:
Right now aside from Flyscreen widgets, you can only have two standard Android widgets.

use the whole screen for widgets [updated]

2010-08-31T12:07:53-07:00

It seems like you can only have one widget per screen? If that's true, I don't see much point to the background image. The Twitter widget, for example, would gain a lot by being the width of the full screen and using all available vertical space.

Iria said:

Indeed, I have no idea why I can't use a large widget since you can only place one widget per screen. I have to choose a tiny widget which wastes a lot of space.

Wrong screen size

2010-08-24T23:02:18-07:00

Evgeny Nacu suggested:
Screen size (only width) is wrong on my phone. I changed lcd_density in /system/build.prop and now FlyScreen doesn't work correctly (it's more narrow than the screen). Height is calculated right!

Sometimes I see an article that I would like to read later but will be pushed out of the list by updated news feeds.

2010-08-18T14:44:10-07:00

RB suggested:
Currently it is all or nothing. It could be more precise with only download articles from this feed or download for later as an option in the sub-menu.

Make long press open sub-menu rather than tap. [updated]

2010-08-18T14:41:04-07:00

Take away that long press animation and make long press actually do what the tap does now; open the sub-menu. The elongated version of the widget could be another option in the sub-menu.

RB said:

Wanted to add that tap would open the full article. This would reduce the 3 actions (Tap, Open, and Open again) to fully see the article into 1. The purpose of the widget is for easier access. The short synopsis shown now could be an option in the long press sub-menu described above.

Disable unlocking from Menu Key [updated]

2010-07-16T01:47:52-07:00

I would like to disable the touch sensitive menu key so I don't unlock phone from my pocket. No point of a lock screen that is inadvertently unlocked.

sogarth said:

Also, it seems fairly silly that, just by opening up the Options from the lockscreen, that you can edit the Widgets (which can be dangerous), change the Settings, or even Exit FlyScreen (which then, from what I can tell, requires a reboot to make it work properly again). Having Update, Search, and Mute is fine - Widgets, Settings, and Exit don't make any sense at all, at least for lockscreen mode.

FlyScreen admins please look into this! Possibly use that app to help configure your app to be the only lock screen?

The idea of adding custom feeds is really great, but you can only rename them from the website. Why not make it possible for users to rename the feed directly from the mobile device? That would be much easier for users. Thanks!

We recently tested the app on the Nokia E72, and we like what it does a whole lot ... but the Facebook integration is not working, even though it is listed in set of available widgets for installation.

link the titles in the feeds? [updated]

2010-06-16T09:08:36-07:00

I use the Nokia 5800, and it "works", in the sense that when I use the hardware unlock slide, instead of my regular phone screen, this lockscreen comes up. All good and well, but I can't do anything with it. I can scroll up and down, and left and right between feeds, but there's no way to open any of the titles. At the very bottom is a 'slide to unlock' "button", but I can slide as much as I want (left to right? right to left? up? down?), nothing happens. To get to my phone contents I need to press the hardware button below my screen.

This is done, right? But be nice if it could show more than one widget per screen if they'll fit.

Better interface for Calendar widget [updated]

2010-06-06T23:54:49-07:00

Currently the grid looks very empty. I'd love to have a better visual representation of various agenda items. They could be represented as timeline bars, as seen here: http://koxx3.free.fr/gridcal18.png

steve.dehart said:

I agree with an agenda view and/or day/week options with timeline bars. Also, clicking a specific event could open that event in the calendar app for editing.

I've also found a bug (at least on my phone) - some of my events are 'bleeding' onto other days. Eg. Monday's work shift is on Monday, but also appears on Tuesday. I checked it on my calendar app, and it's correct, but Flyscreen's calendar remains messed up, even after multiple updates and exiting and restarting.

let me set a 'default action' for widgets

steve.dehart suggested:
For some reader widgets that are simply text, like FML, I'd love to be able to set it so I click on an entry and don't have to pick from the preview / url / tag list. It'd be great if I could just set it to default with Preview, and maybe have the other options as buttons at the bottom of the preview window.

I can't register from my phone (server connection fail error). And the app tells me to register on the website but there is no register form.

i had the same problem then tried downloading onto my computer and moving across --- there's the option to download an updated version (v3.1+ i think) or the version offered when downloading straight from mobile web. The updated version has a different registration form with added fields and it let me register. Can't comment on running of the app as have yet to try it out! Hope this helps...

Great app. After coming from a JB iPhone with intelliscreen it was the availability of your app which made me happy to switch to Android.
Please, please can we have a couple of calendar widget choices. The full month is not much use as you still need to click into the day itself to see what you've got on.
An agenda view of that day would be lovely. Or, just a list of appointments for today and tomorrow.

Keep up the good work!

an anonymous user suggested:
I don't use this great app simply because the volume and camera buttons on the side can turn the display on. Not only does this suck up the battery when it accidentally gets turned on, but pressing one of the volume buttons changes the ring style so that it can get turned on or off silent mode. Definitely not good. Please fix!

Totally replace lockscreen [updated]

2010-03-18T21:22:51-07:00

Unless I have this configured wrong, when I need to get to the home screen from FlyScreen, sometimes I also get confronted with the G1/Android lockscreen too. I'm hoping that FlyScreen will eventually include the ability to totally replaced the built-in lock screen of the phone. :) I fear I'm going to wear out the Menu button of my phone by the numerous presses I'm having to make :)

I constantly get the native lock screen on my Droid, despite I have the option "Disable Screen Lock" checked. I really hate having to swipe twice (and yes I realize the FlyScreen one is not really a lock)

Stop requiring people to pick a username and password

2010-03-14T19:28:05-07:00

an anonymous user suggested:
Since FlyScreen is an Android product, you *know* that everyone has a Google account. Why not just use the Google account for authentication? This way you can get rid of that silly "why are we asking for this" as well as all the verbage about "picking a username that's easy to remember". You know what's easy? Not having to pick yet another username and password for yet another service. See snaptic.com (authors of 3banana notes) for an example of user registration done right.
