Free Android gPhone G1 Applications

Back to Home

 

Here, you'll find some applications we wrote for the T-Mobile G1 phone.  We use them personally and offer them for free on the Google Android Market (located on your phone).

Please also take a look at the Walkie Talkie Push to Talk application for the Android G1 and it's support site.

"DSC Alarm Monitor"

This native gPhone application allows a home owner to monitor and control their DSC Home Alarm remotely.  You can see the status of zones and arm/disarm the alarm.

With one-time setup in the application and a native Android interface, it makes interacting with your alarm system much simpler from away from home.

We use the software to arm the alarm once we realize we'll be gone longer than expected.  The alarm also calls us when it's triggered, allowing us to see which zones were triggered and then monitor IP security cameras (see our free IP Cam Viewer app).

You can download/install this application from your gPhone using the "Market" application.  Search for words in the application name above.

Note that there is a paid version with more features located in the market(including a new desktop widget that shows that status of your alarm on your home screen).

 

 "IP Cam Viewer"

This native Android application makes viewing multiple IP security cameras much easier.  With one time setup, you can scroll through your web cams like a photo gallery.

Over 100+ camera types supported, including Axis, Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, Linksys, AirLink, DLink and more (see help in application for specifics).

Now, traffic cameras from around the world is also supported.

"URL Monitor"

Check web server host up/down status.  Forked version of "Host Monitor" which:

- Allows for an optional PATH where the program will do a HTTP HEAD instead of ping (I used it to check a special "up.txt" file that is empty).

- Fixes crashes with Host Monitor and now works with Cupcuke 1.5.

- New desktop widget summarizes overall status every 15 minutes (easy to see all servers are up without having to run the app).  Just long press at the home screen to insert desktop widget.
