I got my case from Matt last week and it fit great. The round button was out of stock when I built my HeaterMeter, but Matt tweaked the design to fit the square one for me. If anyone else has the square button, don't let that hold you back from getting a case.

I started my new job this week, so I haven't had as much time to mess around with PitDroid. I will update it to the new format soon though, and I'll look into getting the alarms to sound in silent mode. I googled that the other day and apparently all you do is turn up the volume, sound your...

Hey Jarrod, it's expected that you would see -225 if the pit probe isn't connected. The second parameter is degrees off from the set point, so I guess it's considering the current temperature zero. I should probably just not show it in that case though. Jason, I didn't even know you could...

I just uploaded a new version with alarm support, the details are in the first post. Hey Bryan, the graph is done with a library I found, AndroidPlot. The data I am just polling. I looked into using the streamed version, but it doesn't seem like something Android supports. If you want data...

Oh, and I updated the graph screenshot with one from partway through the cook today. Please ignore all those parts where it says the lid was open, that was just the crazy wind gusts here fooling the HeaterMeter. Well, I did have the lid off for the last one, because I was wrapping the brisket...

I used my HeaterMeter to smoke a brisket today (I have the week off :cool:), and I did some more work on PitDroid. I've got the interface for setting alarms set up and actually had it working by the end of the day. My phone actually woke up and vibrated when the pit temp got too low, and I...

Android app: PitDroid I made an Android app for monitoring your HeaterMeter: PitDroid! The first thing you need to do once you've installed and started it is go into settings and enter the address of your HeaterMeter. It should be something like 192.168.1.10. If you've forwarded your...

I've spent a couple days boning up on Android and Java and I've got something functional. It has a dashboard to show the current temps, and another page that replicates most of the graphing from the web page. There are a ton of cool things I could do with it, but I'm trying to get the basic...

Thanks for the idea Jason. Yesterday I went to the store with a tape measure and scoured the canned goods. I ended up buying a can of pickled jalapenos that was just the right size, and a little more shallow than the soup cans I was looking at too. Unfortunately, when I went to test fit it it...

Pretty cool. I just got my HeaterMeter put together and immediately wanted an Android app, so since I've got some free time I started writing a native one. I'm a C++ programmer so I'm new to Java and Android, but it doesn't seem too hard. I've already got it connecting to the JSON feed and...
