After getting cheated by Taxi and Rickshaw drivers one too many times, I created an app that shows you the tariff for both Taxis and Rickshaws.
you can instantly compare rickshaw tariffs and taxi tariffs.

It has night rates as well.

It will work on almost any device that supports .Jar or .Jad games and apps.
It works on Nokia, Samsung, Motorola, Blackberry, etc mobile phones.
You never need any GPRS or Internet to use it.

The app is free for download.

You can download the app from the link here.

To install the app, either download the jar from the link above using your mobile browser.
You can alternatively download the .jar and .jad files from the link above and copy the app on your memory card and install it from a file browser on your phone.

It works very well on touch and keypad phones.

It is self explanatory and very easy to use.

Just enter the reading as you see it on the meter.
e.g. If the meter says

Rs     P
01    10

Then enter the number as 1.10 and press Ok.

The fare will be shown immediately.

For all my android brothers…

If you have an Android mobile phone, you can find the app from the market.
Just search for “Aditya” in the Android market.
Select “Mumbai Taxi and Rickshaw” and install it.

The app is free for download there too.

Please post your comments if you like it.

I was intrigued by the request that a user on XDA had made to disable the Media Scanner on System boot.

You can read about it here.

I felt his pain. Waiting minutes on end at every boot-up for the Media Scanner to complete.

Another user suggested an app called Startup Manager from the market that would kill the service at system boot thus saving your time.

The only issue was that the process to scan media files was killed so to regain the ability to rescan the system, you would have to re-enable the Media Scanner process.

You can find my app that restarts the service temporarily.

Just search for “Aditya” and use either the Rescan Media app or if you have used Startup Manager, Rescan Media ROOT.

It simply executes 2 shell commands that restart services temporarily.

If you have issues for the first time with the ROOT version,
Drop to adb shell or use a terminal emulator and type this command only once.

pm enable com.android.providers.media/com.android.providers.media.MediaScannerReceiver

Read this thread for anymore information.

Companies try to price different sizes of products at different rates.
Using this app, you can outsmart the companies.

Eg.
Grams          Price
100g             $10
200g             $25

Does it make sense to get 2 X 100g products or 1 X 200g products.
It seems easy when the values are round figures.

Try calculating the result when the weights are 135g and 275g.

Also included is a discount calculator as well as a unit converter.

Auto Start

Auto Start all timers.
I have added the ability to auto start all timers to my app.

How to use it.

1. Open the app.
2. Open the menu.
3. Tap “Set Preferences”.
4. Make sure that you have more than one timer active.
5. Tick “Auto Start”.
6. Go back.
7. Set the racer name for all the timers.
8. On “Timer 1″, tap “Click here to continue”.
9. Tap the “Start” button.
10. Move to each remaining timer and tap the “Click here to continue” button.
11. You will notice that they have all started at the same time.
12. This is the only way to do this otherwise the app will not work as intended.

I know this method to start all timers at once seems odd but it is the only way to do this right now and maintain maximum backward compatibility with older devices.
