Free AppAbout RPoL Notifier [Unofficial]
Simple notification app for Roleplay Online ( rpol.net ).
2.02.03 - Bug Fix: New ignore list wasn't superseding correctly.
2.02.01 - Added new settings for Private messages. Private has its own ignore list and notification sound setting. Also added menu option to clear portrait information so when you change a games portrait you can get the update.
2.01.00 - Bug Fix: Login window was launching every time the app restarted. Also removed the static portrait orientation.
2.00.02 - Bug Fix: The "Force Browser Choice" function was launching to the first notification's game only.
2.00.01 - Bug Fix: Quiet Hours was silencing outside it's allotted time window.
2.00.00 - Code rewrite, bug fixes and new features
Login Screen: There are several people that have installed the app and were unaware they needed to hit the menu key and register. I finally made a screen that makes this part work like you would expect.
Show Password: Their is a check-box to show your password for those that have trouble typing. Also, the app no longer saves your password to the phone. After logging in, it saves the RPoL session cookie and discards the password.
New graphics: First.. Launcher icon. It now uses the RPoL "impossible cube" instead of that ugly red d6 filler graphic I had. The login screen also has the familiar banner graphic (with unofficial stamped across it). Even more fun... As notifications arrive for each game, the app now looks up and cache a copy of your players portrait. For Honeycomb and newer, it's used as the large icon for your notifications. Currently it will only download these once, you would need to clear all of the apps data to flush them out if you change character portraits.
Quiet Hours: You can now specify a range of time to have Lights, Sounds, and Vibrations turned off.
Multi-Browser Support: With a check box, you can force the app to always prompt you to choose a browser (for those that bounce around a lot, or prefer one for RPoL, but not as a default).
LED Settings: For those that have hardware that supports it, you can now specify what color your LED should blink. You enter a hex value, Red (FF0000) Green (00FF00) Blue(0000FF). http://www.rapidtables.com/web/color/RGB_Color.htm This site can help you play with the colors.
Bug Fixes:
Vibration actually works now. HOWEVER... you will want to change that setting if you already have the old version. I put a ridicules vibrate pattern in the initial release, and since it didn't work I forgot to take it out.
Special Characters in game titles are decoded (actually already fixed for v1 users as well, it was a server thing, I needed to urldecode the game titles from the feeds.)
05/31/2013 - If notifications have stopped for your device, unregister and register. This can be performed within the app, or you can remove and reinstall. Sorry for the inconvenience.
1.00.02 - Invalid RPoL credentials weren't failing properly.

I would really like the ability to opt out of being notified for public threads (like "Player's wanted"). Other than that good app.

It is admittedly a very simple app. Luckily, that is all it needs to be. It's absolutely perfect for the task at hand!

This would be a fantastic app if the notifications were opt-in instead of opt-out. There's just one game I want to follow. To use this app, I would have to go in and exclude a ton of games, which is already more difficult than it should be. This really can't be easier?

I do not have a zillion games, but those I have are important to me. I love that this keeps me on top of it!

This concept is awesome. I was looking for something like this, tried exploiting the rss feed, but it's too general. I'm in a lot of games on there, so I check all the time... THANKS DEV!! Requests: Can you explain *MORE CLEARLY* how to edit out irrelevant notifications? UPDATE - To edit out games, use the GID number *in the URL* for that game. Works pretty darned well!

However, is there a way to turn off public notice?it is annoying to here the other messages. I would to like to have private message on only, until game is over.

This concept is awesome. I was looking for something like this, tried exploiting the rss feed, but it's too general. I'm in a lot of games on there, so I just check all the time. Anyway, I just installed 2 min's ago & haven't had an alert pop up yet. So we'll see how THAT works... THANKS DEV!! Requests: Can you explain *MORE CLEARLY* how to edit out irrelevant notifications? I GM one game, play in 7 games, and have 2 games in 'deleted' section. Do I mark 9-15 to ignore all those forums? If you ever update, I'd suggest a toggle switch which lets you select "only notify for games", or "only notify for forums" depending on the rpol person. Also, would be good for a 'test' button to show what rpol threads are generating notifications. UPDATE - To edit out games, use the GID number in the URL for that game. I'm blocking a bunch of public msg game threads, but no private msgs.

I would like to give it a try but I have downloaded it a few times and only the notification options is available. I get update alerts on my normal notification on my phone but can't use any other part of the app because I can't exit notification options without exiting the APP.

I would be hitting the refresh button every min or so when things got hot and heavy in game, sometimes no responses for like 20mins so i would be sitting there wasting time. Now i just wait for the ping on the phone and bang i'm good to go. Works great.

A few hiccups with notifying, but otherwise perfect for what is needed. The old version had some hiccups for me and didn't notify private messages. Nor did the ignore work. Hopefully this release fixed some of that.
