Howto or instuction how to install Reverb pulseaudio voluem control on Android #1

Idea of Reverb application is very good - I very long time searching for application that can remotely control of pulseaudio volume from android system and find nothing. But now I find your app, via screenshots it looks very good. But I don't understand how to install it on my android system.

Can you describe instructions how to install your app on android phone?

apk file right here https://github.com/hchapman/reverb/Reverb.apk/qr_code

MurzNN commented 10 years ago

Thanks, I install it and it works well on fresh Cyanogenmod 11 and on older Android 4.0 too. Will be good add link to apk file to main project page https://github.com/hchapman/reverb because at first I try to search it but didn't find.

No problem.

hchapman commented 10 years ago

Yeah woah, I can't even see how you found it! I think it used to be a GH download before they closed out that feature?

Anyways, be careful when you use it... PA over wireless used to kill my network and I haven't been able to fix that bug. I'd love to compile a new version of the library though and polish up a beta-worthy version of this some time though.

MurzNN commented 10 years ago

hchapman, after some days of use all works stable, my wireless network is not killed :) I ready and want to to test your new beta-version, because pulseaudio volume control from Android is much needed for me.

I see that you do some commits to source code, thanks for improving app. But package from link https://github.com/hchapman/reverb/Reverb.apk/qr_code (Date 2012-07-16) is not updated. Maybe exists another link that contains fresh apk file from master branch?

hchapman commented 10 years ago

As of yet nothing has been added at all, I've only updated the project to work with Android Studio rather than Eclipse. I'm anticipating having a good deal more free time come late next week and maybe some good improvements will come soon.

Is there any news in this direction? I see fresh commits in GIT and want ty try new version, but via link https://github.com/hchapman/reverb/Reverb.apk/qr_code I see old version of file. Can you update apk file or post instruction how to quickly build apk file from your git repository on Ubuntu Linux?

hchapman commented 9 years ago

Hey Alexey,

The situation is still about the same; recent updates have primarily either: A) Reconfigured the project files for a newer version of Android Studio or, B) Initial work towards using the reliably-built version of libpulse.so (https://github.com/hchapman/pulseaudio-android-ndk)

The problem here is point B; a bunch of stuff has changed in the library and so there is still a bunch of required changes to the JNI interface: At least one issue had Reverb crashing every 4 loads! As such, the newest versions are maybe even a bit of a step back so far as functionality goes.

If you'd like to get it building yourself, you'll need to install and configure:

You'll then need to clone Reverb, and run git submodule init to pull in the submodule with the libpulse JNI interface. I think libpulse-android already contains an ARM binary of the libpulse.so library so that you won't need to build that yourself. Then you'll have to get everything set up in Android Studio (which seems to perpetually need tweaking, hence the recent commits :sob:). Once this is all set up, it can build and run, and I'll be happy to incorporate any fixes you might come across!

If you need any help I can try my best to elaborate; but it has been a few months (and a few versions of Android Studio/maven/gradle) so I'm probably a bit rusty.

Reverb APK file from link https://github.com/hchapman/reverb/Reverb.apk/qr_code is missed at now. Before I download and use it very often: it installs and works normally on my android phone

But after reinstall system I lost APK file and can't find where can I download it now. Did you have backup of this file? Can you share it for public download?

I know that this there was be too old version, but this is better than nothing, because I can't find any other app or way to control pulseaudio volume remotely via Android. And compiling apk file manually from GIT is too hard way for me :(

hchapman commented 8 years ago

"New" link is https://github.com/downloads/hchapman/reverb/Reverb.apk Version is unknown, but should be the same. This is probably tough because github is/was phasing out their downloads feature.

parkerlreed commented 7 years ago

People seem to use the releases section for downloads https://github.com/hchapman/reverb/releases

Might be good to get it going there at least.

hchapman commented 7 years ago

Yes I'll look into it over the course of the next week, especially if I can find that old APK
