[Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
Hiya.
Don't know if this has been mentioned before but here we go. I happened to come cross with an app (Android Notifier) for Android & Mac/Windows/Linux, that let's users to see their push on their computer. However, I can't seem to find an equivalent one for Maemo (5) and am thus asking, would it be possible to make one for it? I for one don't have any kind of skills to code, otherwise I'd be taking action and do this. What I think is good base for this project is the OpenWatch from repositories, since it seems to use push for the clock but not for the computer. Would it be possible to modify it so, that it would push the.. eh, push to the computer instead? Thanks in advance (hopefully I followed the rules of the forum by posting this thread in here, since I couldn't really consider this as an Brainstorm). |

I saw android notifier today and instantly thought we need this, I think this would be awesome. Something as simple as letting the dbus tweet would be acceptable

Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
I was actually going to begin writing a script to do this. It'll probably be crap though so does anyone else want to do it instead?

Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
Ok, I can send a message over ssh using notify-send but I have no knowledge of Dbus and can't figure out how to listen to notifications and then send over what's displayed. Still reading about it.
Any help? |
Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
Something like this should work with the desktop part of android notify over wifi:
dbus-monitor --system "type='signal', interface='com.nokia.csd.Call', member='Coming'" | sed -n 's_.*serial=\([0-9]*\).*_v2/n900/\1/RING/foo/foo_p' | nc -u 127.0.0.1 10600 dbus monitor outputs the dbus signals, sed turns it into something approximating the android notifier message format and then netcat sends it over udp to some host. Except piping data into netcat isn't working, which I am blaming on busybox. Other problems: dbus monitor outputs stuff not in the watch expression at the start, profile output doesn't work with pipes, and netcat is not in extras :) A python script is probably the best option, using the info on wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/Maemo_5_Developer_Guide/DBus/DBus_in_Freemantle |
Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
Unfortunately, I have a load of work to do and am generally going to be extremely busy so I'm either going to be working slowly on this or possibly not at all.
Dependant on how much time I can get. Sorry guys. |
Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
I know this is a bit further on than what you are suggesting, but it would be great to be able to answer the call on your computer too and have the voices rerouted from your phone to the computer. Similarly being able to reply to an SMS would be cool.
Then I can leave my n900 upstairs charging and be working on my laptop and all my calls/SMS will come to me wherever I am in the house :D Maybe it can be semi-achieved with VNC., I'm not sure what happens with sound... |
Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
That would be possible with PulseAudio (though that means it only works with Linux computers). But I think the PulseAudio support in the N900 isn't a full implementation.

Re: [Request] Android Notifier -> Maemo Notifier
So, is anyone working on this? I would sooo love to see this happen! I'd be happy to do my part to help. I'm no coder, but I'm pretty good at testing and bug reporting, if that would be of any help.
