Playing with Python again..

February 29th, 2008 · 15 Comments

Pasta TimerIt’s been a long long time since I posted but was really busy with work. Anyway, I had some spare time yesterday and decided to play again with Python for S60… The good about Python is that you can really really make a small application in few minutes (or hours if you are not very good at Python like me ;-) )…

The application uses the built in accelerometer to increase the minutes, just shake it (or press up/down, or go to options -> Set Time Manually). The app will also say when it’s “al dente” ; i.e. when there is 1 minute left and … well you’ll see if you install the app ;-) )

Special thanks to Pietro from www.jaspp.net for his icon!

The App is clearly beta (I did it in few hours and only tested on my N95), unsigned and I accept no responsibility for anything ;-) install it at your own risk. Also, please note that it must be installed on memory card:

Update 2:

Managed to get everything in one file (almost ;-) ), now you just need to click yes all the time and install everything in C:. All the files, except one are in the following:

PastaTimer_v1_5_1_selfsigned_standalone.sis

and you also need the following if you want to minimise the application in the background (although it’s not necessary to have it):

appswitch_selfsigned.sisx .To install it, you need to change the date to say 02/03/2007 and it will install (that is the reason I could not combine everything in one package. I.e. it would fail the whole installation).

Further Screenshots:

Update:

New file with additional requested features…last one hopefully (it was supposed to be a 1 hour hobby ;-) ). All the files are self signed and should work (they do on my N95). Please make sure you install everything on C: (Python should be installed in C:) . Order of installation (unless you have some files already installed)

  • pythonfors60_1_4_2_3rded.SIS in C:
  • n95accelerometerplugin.sis in C:
  • axyz_3rd_n95_1_0_2_selfsigned.sisx in C:
  • appswitch_selfsigned.sisx in C: ( you might need to change the date of your phone to install this)
  • CookPastav2_v1_5_0_selfsigned.sis

If you get an update error, uninstall the file and install it again.

Files:

cookpastav2_v1_5_0_selfsigned.sis

PastaTimer Additional Files.zip

Change Log for this version:

Fixed small bugs (changed sensitivity during countdown)
App now plays file located at E:\\FinalWarning.mp3 when countdown is over
All ‘read’ warnings can be changed
App can be minimised

Old Files:

CookPastav2_v1_3_0.sis

File you might need:

pythonfors60_1_4_2_3rded.SIS

N95AccelerometerPlugin.sis

aXYZ_3rd_N95_1_0_2_selfsigned.sisx / aXYZ_3rd_N95_1_0_2_unsigned.SIS

Anyway here’s the result:

    Great app bro!
    Just a suggestion: it will be nice if you add the possibility to reduce the app without closing it.

    I installed all plug-ins, but increase time on shake doesn’t work :(

    Hi!
    I understood that your nice app won’t work on 5500 since it uses different sensor commands in python…may I ask if it’s possible to have the original script .py in order to make it work on nokia 5500? … or at least try to do it! ;)
    Thanx
