Universal Mouse Cursor for the LG Classic

[Login to see the link] I read that thread by Hebrew keyboard (which has since been locked, so I'm posting here) and was very surprised at the insensitive comments that were posted there. I was always bothered a little at the demanding tones with which people were asking you to improve the app, but this is a whole other level. There are many tech savvy ppl on this forum, but you are one of the only ones that can actually code an app, and I guess some people don't realize the skill it takes. You are 100% right that feeling appreciated is one of the only things that motivates one to do something for free, and being underappreciated is really demoralizing. While the amount of backlash should be encouraging, I do think that some ppl especially [Login to see the link] owe you an apology. As a matter of fact, your post sounded uncannily similar to how [Login to see the link] felt about a rotten apple ruining his free work... It seems like you're begining to understand each other. No one likes feeling violated. I do find it interesting that both of you decided to completely drop developing apps after your bad expiriences. I can't tell you what to do, but I encourage you not to drop a hobby you obviously take interest in, just because of a bad apple, but in any case, everyone should be well, and know that the amount of supporters is way more than you think. Keep it up!

Techgen While the amount of backlash should be encouraging, I do think that some ppl especially [Login to see the link] owe you an apology.

While maybe I should have softened my tone a bit, I don't think I owe anybody an apolighy. I was providing feedback on an app and there's no reason to take it all personally. I have been given negative feedback a few times and I simply took the advice.

chaimontherun Thats correct, the apology is for the tone and choice of words, there is a correct way to give feedback, everything you had an issue with was already reported by someone earlier in the thread, in a nicer tone, after complementing on the good parts. If you would be talking to a good friend you would phrase it differently (I hope)

Just went through the Hebrew keyboard thread.
I now understand the context.

Just in case it helps,
BoruchAdler, your keyboard is an excellent start. In case you decide to come back to it and continue working, do check out another open source project - [Login to see the link]
They have an awesome accessibility app (and the inspiration for my mouse, duly credited on my code page). I planned on eventually adding keyboard support in my mouse just like theirs. Maybe their implementation will help you do the finishing touch in your app

And if you need some resources on open sourcing, just in case you wish to, I'd be happy to help. I mentor people apart from creating open source projects too ;-).

Techgen I encourage you not to drop a hobby you obviously take interest in

Thanks Techgen, and everyone else for the encouragement!
Several things happened today and all of them say it's time for me to get back to open source. I'll be pushing the source code of last released matvt-phone version as soon as I get the chance to .

Also a side-note, BMC Support team has enabled my stripe account for international folks. Thanks L-B, I'd have never known otherwise

virresh You're back! That's great news! I will definitely be "buying you a (well deserved) coffee"

PS due to the Jewish Sabbath (early Friday night until late Saturday night) most of us on these discussion boards were not able to see any posts over the last day, hence no responses.

virresh I'm glad you arrived at that decision, and in general are feeling better about this. Be well!

virresh FYI It's still not working unfortunately.

When I try the first option, after I put in my phone number I choose card and it gives me the same error as before as to not allowing international cards

When I try the new card option I get this message

"It appears that you are cloning a card payment method to a IN-based connected merchant. As part of our continued investment in India and to meet local data storage requirements, we no longer allow cloning card payment methods into or out of India, so we had to reject your request. For more information, please visit [Login to see the link]."

when I try google pay it just says error processing payment

L-B, Whoops. Thanks a lot again! Ive alerted the buy me a coffee team. Seems like they are facing issues with international regulations. I'll post here in case there's any update.

Can anybody please share the link to the cursor. It says it's on the App page, but can't seem to find it there.
Thanks in advance.

JustAYid its there its called Apps4Flip Mouse

This is a really great feature. Thank you for making it!
I am having a small issue and I'm wondering if anyone else has run across it.
In the new Scroll mode, my mouse seems to be clicking as I scroll.
Is this a problem others are experiencing?

Anyone else have the problem that the scroll mode seems to be clicking all the time.

yes the issue is definitly on the kyocera cadence

Sorry to revive a dead thread but do we have a final solution to the readout problem?
Short summary. On my Lg classic when I once the mouse app is installed, all incoming calls get announced by the phone with a readout. Any way to fix this?

Flippy I think this is the same problem when you have voice access. And for that the solutions are:

You can mute your media volume. (Use Button Mapper to do it quickly)

This may be another way:

L-B the eitza is to uninstall com.lge.tts.sfplus BUT it "ruins" the voice access so that after uninstalling tts it will only listen the first time you talk and if you want to talk again you have to press the button to turn voice access on and off again (not such a big deal but just FYI)

darth Thanks, but will that "ruin" anything for me if I dont have voice access installed and only the mouse cursor? anyone have any experience with this?

Flippy
I don't think so. Also voice access works just fine as described. I did this about 4 months ago (after discovering it) and have no problems B"H
