[3/31] G-Trigger v0.3.1 -G-sensor based app launcher, speed dialer/task swi

G-Trigger v0.3.1 beta out now-quite a few changes have been made, see the changelog below for more details
and one of the coolest new features, you can set up each gesture to automatically dial a number
also there is a workaround to play next/previous song in the manila (tf3d) music tab, see post #2


This is one of the coolest program launchers I've seen. It is a g-sensor based program launcher that detects the "shake" direction of your device and launches the corresponding app assigned to that gesture. Here is the xda thread about it, as well as the dev's site. Although still in beta, works pretty well for me, especially when you get the hang of it. It gives a slight vibration on my Touch Pro when the gesture has been accepted, which happens pretty quickly. The sensitivity of shake detection can also be changed. You can assign a program to launch based on the direction you shake your device.

Currently supported shaking directions:
  • Horizontally
    • Left to right
    • Right to left
  • Vertically
    • Top to bottom
    • Bottom to top
  • Front & Back
    • Front to back
    • Back to front
Currently supported actions:
  • Close/Minimize active window
  • Dial a number
  • Answer/Reject incoming call
  • Launch Program
  • Ringer Loud/Vibrate/Silent ^new
  • Screen orientation ^new
  • Send Keys*
  • Task Switch ^new
  • Turn ON/OFF screen
  • Media Controls ^new (Not yet implemented completely)
Your phone obviously must have a G-Sensor (accelerometer) for this to work. Although the dev only has tested it on his Diamond, there have been reports on it working on the Touch HD and also on the Omnia. I can personally confirm it works on the Touch Pro as well.

Taken from the xda thread:
Screenshots:





Changelog

I have to make the following disclaimer for not only the developer, but myself as well:
NOTE: Shake at your own risk. Although running this application does not seem to make any damage, I take no responsibility for any kind of damage caused to the device or data due to this application.

Please consider a small donation to developer if you like this app and want to see its further development.


Work around to play next/previous songs in manila music tab:
  1. Set actions as per below:
    • Left to right: Send Keys "{DOWN}" to Active Window
    • Right to left: Send Keys "{UP}" to Active Window
    • Top to bottom: LCD Screen: Toggle
    • Front to back: Send Keys "{ENTER}" to Active Window
  2. Keep music tab on manila active
  3. Shake phone front to back to toggle play/pause, left to right for next song, right to left for previous song, top to bottom to toggle screen on/off.




Set up Toggling

Also, if you don't want to leave it on all the time, there is a way to toggle it on/off other than start/stopping within the app. You can assign a softkey (or hardkey) to "G-TriggerService.exe"

It is located under Program Files> G-Trigger> G-TriggerService




If G-Trigger is already running, it can be turned off as well, although you'll get the following pop up:



However, when toggling it back on, you will not receive this pop up, making it more convenient to do while not needing to look at your device. There is about a 1 second delay when you toggle on, but honestly it's pretty negligible.







Shake Detection
Just a tip, but move the device slowly in the opposite direction to start. Like if you trying to execute "left to right," move the device slowly to the right, then back to the left at a normal speed. You'll have to shake back to the right then left again, then the program will accept the gesture.

So for "Left to Right" move the device like this:
Right (slowly), Left, Right, Left

However, you can make this more/less sensitive by changing the Threshold.
