Well guys, lets support this work and this site, just give it a 3-minutes to install an app (enter Google-Play-Market and search 4sashi and install it, You’ll possibly found it useful or funny! Anyway you can delete it immediately after setting a rating (of 5stars maybe 8)
So don’t walk by, if you like or use this site – just do it like a little donation (is free and just needs a few time from You!)
Thanks in advance!
Now available on Google Play. 
Getting involved
Write a comment and tell us about your experience with the app.
wow. so fast. thanks.
but I cann’t test this app, cause I have phone with Android 2.3.
but it works on emulator 🙂
Had to raise min version to 3.0 because some methods were deprecated so basically I could use the deprecated methods and support 2.2 but this is considered bad practice…
Glad to know it works on emulator!
I’m fetching the latest entries from RSS feeds, parsing to extract image url, download and display latest 20 for each site enabled in settings.
I used these:
http://fiddle.se/rss
http://www.idol-grapher.com/feed
http://feeds.feedburner.com/CuteKorean?format=xml
http://ts-y.tistory.com/rss
Do you have any idea how to let the user configure the sources? Make a sketch to explain maybe?

WOW! Picture quality is great
but i want J-Pop or AKB48 in 4Sashi Apps. Thanks!
Please sent a VIP Password, I love J-POP and 1080P MV.
Thanks!
You can add custom image sources from the settings.
For example you can add a custom source with this URL: http://akb48pics.tumblr.com/rss
and watch latest AKB48 pics!
hola si me podrias mandar la cntraseña de los mv bluray de kpop y jpop
[Watch latest pics]
– Can swipe left/right to watch previous/next picture
Works nice on Xperia ZL.
It would be nice to have idol schedules with filtering. I know it’s hard to know every single event, but it can be done with in app contributions.
Thanks!
I think we’re getting closer to a “usable” version.
About the artifacts that appear on scaling, I’m not sure what causes them because they do not happen on Android 4.1 but happen on 2.2 from what I saw.
Can you provide a screnshot to show small controls?
Shall try to improve the app with your suggestions when time permits!
Press HOME button and POWER button at the same time to take a screenshot!
I’ve identified the source of the problem. Should be fixed in next version!
EDIT: should be fixed now
Updated post to reflect recent changes
I can’t download the app on my phone, it seems like the link is dead. Can I still get the VIP password? 🙁
Yes I tried to download it directly from my Samsumg Galaxy. Maybe it comes from the fact that I’m in China at the moment.. or maybe it’s just the link that’s not working, I don’t know. Unfortunately I don’t have an iPad ^^
Ok thank you, I will try as soon as I can.
Ok it works fine now. In the “Play Guess-Who” section, pictures don’t appear (just a blank square in the middle of the screen) and the button “Next” doesn’t work, I tried to change manually to other girls and just wait for a while, sometimes a small blue square with an interrogative marker appears.. Then the “Watch latest pics” section is bit better, pictures do appear, it works fine (but a bit slow, maybe due to my connection). I tested this app with an HTC. If I can you help in any other way, just tell me what I can do. Otherwise.. please send me a VIP pass as soon as you can! Thank you Sashi 😀
[Guess-who]
– Add loading message
– Autoload next image on load error
– Add more idols (T-ara)
Just added suffix for all recent uploads!
[Guess-who]
– Fixed layout
– More space in landscape orientation (can see the image better)
[Guess-who]
– Added more idols
– Added difficulty setting
– Added sound effects (+ setting to disable)
Now I think all the initial functionality is implemented and should be working as designed 🙂
Don’t hesistate to write a comment if you find bugs!
Next up: graphical improvements
wow. I really like this app. I especially enjoy the game on this.
Don’t have much time at the moment either. I had a google code project setup but will definitely create a repository on bitbucket and push the code there in a few minutes.
Just pushed to bitbucket. It’s available here: https://bitbucket.org/zeli47/4sashi-android
Tell me your username there so I can give you write access to the repository!
Development is stalled for the moment.
Should have some time to spend on it early February so you can expect some improvements around that time next year!
yup, still the same link!
Thanks for the feedback
I will add “kpop” somewhere in the description, thanks for pointing this out!
I pushed an update last night that fixes a few things in guess-who mode:
– center image and fit to screen
– don’t scale loading image 8)
Will add support for back button very soon!
For swipes in guess-who, I still have to find a good solution for this one because using the google search javascript API forces me to use a WebView and I can’t directly use the same method as in “Latest pics” mode. But I will eventually find a way to get around this!
Can you explain a bit more about your idea of “RSS history” (last point)?
For iOS and Python code, I can give some help if needed but you should push your code to bitbucket so we can work as a team and also need to explain me what you’re doing 8)
That’s a nice idea, will think about it for a future version
I wrote some ideas here: https://bitbucket.org/smx06/kpp-idl-srv/wiki/Home
I’m using that kind of trick (WebView) in the Android app in order to use the js api but indeed the main problem with this approach is that there are always some pictures that do not match the search terms.
Your idea is just fine. The only downside is that it will take some time to prepare and filter the images.
I’ll post some image stats for the android app below in a sec 😉
15+ people using the app is not so much but at least it is useful to some people so that’s fine with me 8)
About the picture app, hmm it’s a little bit out of the context of kpop/jpop and this site but why not
My advice is to target Android first as it’s easier to get your app on the store (no validation/approval required), costs less to push an app to the store
Android:
iOS:
If you want to target the largest audience , then ideally, it would be best to use a cross platform framework so that you write your app once and it runs on android, ios, windows phone 8, blackberry + others (=> don’t do what I did if you start developing a new app ^^)
2all: Yup, if you think something should be improved, please tell it here! We can’t guess what you want if you don’t tell us!

Works well on my Nook HD+ rooted. Like all the ways to see pics and 4sashi updates. Did say I was wrong on a couple of GG pics when I wasn’t, but otherwise works well. Can I please get a password? Thanks.
Unfortunately don’t really do that stuff or have an Ipad. Guess I’m out of luck. Thanks anyway.
not available for ios?
Hey I’ve just downloaded your app for Android, post a comment and rate it 5 stars 😀
