[APP] Phone Notifier (remind messages and missed calls)

Hi,

I just have finished the development of (another) application that reminds repeatedly for sms/mms and missed calls.

The amazing of this application is that you can configure the sound, repeat interval, repeats count, vibration and led color.

Also, you can set the instant of the remind ends (via a max number of repeats or when the screen becomes on, the device becomes unlocked, etc)

Battery friendly

The application and the associated services are only executed when a SMS/MMS arrives or when a missed call is detected, and are destroyed when the notification ends.
Only when you have a missed call and/or unread message are resident in memory.

Permissions

In order to implement these features, I need to use the next permissions:

- Boot completed: To start the notifications when the phone boot ends, if the case
- Vibrate: For make effective the vibration, if configured
- Receive SMS/MMS: For receive a event, and start the service just when a SMS/MMS is received
- Read SMS: For access to the SMS/MMS database (in order to test for unread messages)
- Read Phone State: For receive a event when a incoming call ends (in order to start the service, if is a missed call)
- Read Contacts: Needed to access to the CallsLog (in order to test for missed calls)
- Wake lock: Needed to set the screen on (if configured)

Damn... Tried every possible way it won't install. LG Optimus One P500 here, with stock ROM, and goldenleaf kernel... I had similar app on symbian and this is the closest one that has same funcionality and even exceeds the one that i used on my old Nokia.

Looks like a great app. I m going to give it a try.

A cool feature if possible would be to have diferent times for sound and vibrate.
For example: play a sound during 10 minutes interval
vibrate during a 1 minute interval.
