Extended Controls - Extend our settings

Hi guys,
I'm an italian Android Developer and my name is Mario. Sorry for my english.
I want to propose you an application: Extended Controls.

I propose that our application:

chart


His name is Extended Controls and you can find on the market.

As we all know Android provides a widget that control
allows you to enable or disable these settings:

1) WiFi
2) Bluetooth
3) GPS
4) Sync
5) Brightness

Do not think the widget is a little too "thin" and that in reality
most other settings are used?

With Extended Controls you can use through a
extension of traditional bar settings Android, a
widget that allows you to enable / disable:

1) 3G
2) Data Connection (APN)
3) Autorotate
4) Airplane Mode
5) Media Scanner
6) Silent
7) Stay Awake
8) Timeout Screen

This' THE ONLY PROGRAM ON THE MARKET THAT THIS HAS LED THE COLORFUL
UNDER THE ON / OFF TAX FOR 3G.

The widget also provides the functionality of Media Scanner.
What is the average scanner? It 'a process of Android that whenever you
add a media file (mp3, image or video) the system
Operating'll add to the gallery automatically.
Unfortunately it is a process that is repeated at intervals of time and may
happen, sometimes, that taking a picture, this is not immediately
viewable in the gallery.
Using the widget instead you ask Android to do so, and
immediately resolve a minor irritant to the system.

Also, you can choose the color of the LED (currently
Available Green Google, Cyano or Blue). Soon to be new
colors for each type of background used:)

We are also available to compare to add new
settings always on request.
I am attaching some screenshots of the application:

thread.
Thank you for your interest.

Regards,
Mario

This is awesome! I can't wait for the Cupcake version to become available. I'm relly missing something like this (Donut has the Power Setting), and the appearance of the widget is great too! I can tell you, if this becomes available for Cupcake it will be a great hit. Only widget that looks like Power Setting from Donut is in Open Home and it's basic white and you have to buy Open Home (which cost a lot more than €0.79) to use it. Just yesterday I was thinking about that and was acctually thinking of spending some time programming it. :)

Hi honolulu team, I have some questions about this app.

On the HTC desire, there is an option to control the mobile network on/off without changing the APN. Does the extended control widget support this?

Also, does the media rescan only scan for media? Or does it scan the entire SD card for all files?

Awaiting a quick reply,
Thanks.
