Hey guys,
Justa few quick questions ...
Is there an application or something that will log all the apps I have downloaded via my account and list them for me, so when I do a backup I knwo what I had before?
Is there an app to list the above AND download the latest versions without me having to manually do anything (Shashimi for Android).
I have loads of text on my Tytn is there an easy way to back these up in a rar file or something. I don't want to import them to the desire just store them.
I sue S2U2, I like the Android lock screen BUT I like being able to view my texts/emails without unlocking the device, what options do I have?
Lastly, is there an app to automatically backup your text on a weekly basis and email it to your gmail as an archive? I want it to also ignore the previous week's text.
Am I asking too much L.o.L.?

I don't have an Android phone yet ...and won't do until 7/8/9-April... but playing with my wife's Hero this is what I know...
You seem to have to create a level of Google account in orpder to purchase from Android Market and logging into your Google Account and going to Android Market will bring up a list of your previously downloaded apps.
I haven't found a stand alone app for this but purchasing your apps through AppBrain.com and using their AppBrain app seems to do what your asking. AppBrain doesn't seem to list all apps though - definitely missing UK specific apps such as Beebplayer.
I've had WinMo phones for the past 8 years and never heard of a facility to do this - if there is one I'd be chuffed to hear about it myself.
Dunno - someone else will have to answer this one I'm afraid
I believe that most backup apps will do a scheduled backup - Sprite Backup definitely does but to the SD Card only (no automailer), but WRT ignoring previously backed up messages I've not heard of this feature in any backup app.
I hope this helps to some extent.

AppBrain allows you to create lists on their site, so when you change phones or wipe it, you can tell it to reinstall the whole list. I did that when I moved from G1 to Desire -- worked like a charm.

You should ask that in TyTN forum

Flyscreen

SMS backup
P.S. sorry, I was lazy and did not include links -- google is your friend

You can store all your text messages online with Microsoft My Phone or else store them on your PC.

THANKS ALL!
Will have a look at this FabianNL as if I can export to individual files then I will be happy. To be honest it isn't a big deal .
Been playing with my Desire for a while, I can see the appeal of Android it's quick, big buttons, keyboard isn't back considering I'm coming from Tytn (as well as a Touch HD but that was BAD).
My next step is ... what programs should I "replace"? I'm refering to applications like mail, text/messages, etc the build in ones.
I am though over the moon with the device the text input ROCKS! I do have a list of applications I need suggestions on though ... I'm used to the following on Windows Phone so I need an Android variation ...
G-Alarm - A Comprehensive alarm application
G-Profile - easily change my profiles from night, work, home, etc, this would be great as a widget
Task Facade - A general task manager that will show all my running applications and let me close/switch
Wake On Text/Email/etc - As it says ... and stay awake until message has been read!
Lock Without using Power button - easy ...
That's about it for now
I use Klaxon for my alarms.
SMS Popup will turn on the screen when you get text messages (not sure if there is similar for emails) and can give reminders untill it's read.
As far as profiles, then would HTC's Scenes not do the trick? Failing this Locale can automagically turn on and off services and silent/loud the ringer based on various criteria like time and location.
You can easily switch to recent apps by pressing and holding the home key
And there are loads of Task Managers on the market for killing running apps
What does sense have for managing profiles?
Hi,
I would like replace my TyTn II to HTC Desire but Im not shure if I will be happy with Desire(Android)...
Main things which wory me are:
1.)Synchronization with PC with USB cable. I DON'T want and will not sync with google account. All I need is same automatic sync line with activesync. I need sync Contacts, Calendar, Emails(Configure which folders), Task's, Notes. Sync will be done with MS Outlook 2007/2010.
2.)Is possible set more than one email account? I need 3x pop3/smtp email accounts.
3.)Is possible disable threaded SMS/MMS? I realy hate this function.
4.)Is there any app which allow connet to windows remote desktop(RDP and not any 3rd party VNC or other)?
5.)Is there some app/pack which can work with word, excel, power point files?
6.)Does included browser support certificates? I know that opera mobile on WinMo do not support it, so I can't manage cPanel server, make payments(bank)...
I think that this is enought for start
Thanks for any help and answers.
Best regards, _Dejan_
Hey,
I've been wondering how to make google map to open instead of HTC localisations when I clic on one of my contacts' adress.
Any idea ?
You can't as far as I know. HTC changed it so "their" app would open rather than Googles. Not surprising really. Instead of changing the mapping app, change the contacts app. I use aTakePhone and that opens Google maps still.
Dave
Go contact is also really good and also has a speed dialer which functions much like the sense one.

Thanks for the tips, I'll give a try
I dont really like "Show Me" app and much prefer Google Maps, previously on my desire if I select a contacts address or an appointment address it would show it on Google Maps, however now on my new One X it does it through Show Me App.
Is there anyway to get the ROM (Calendar & Contacts) to use Google Maps to do this? Will I need to remove Show Me from the ROM for it to use Google Maps or willl that not work either, any help would be much appreciated.
I figure I cannot be the only person who thinks Show Me app is poor and Google Maps is far better.
Thanks in Advance!
Use titanium backup to remove show me and locations and it will default to gmaps. Why you cant choose which app loads by default is beyond me and VERY annoying!!
Thanks, haven't tried it yet but your reply is much appreciated!
Download the following app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tw.kenshinn.htccalendarfilter&hl=en
Select 'Other map', Set to Default and then choose Google Maps and again Set to Default.
No rooting required.

Brilliant, thanks.
Awesome!
Whilst I will remove the Show Me & Location apps when I am rooted as I deem them to be bloatware, this is an excellent solution until then, much appreciated.
When creating a new google calendar event on the phone there is a pin that opens the HTC locaions apps.
Can I change it to Google maps?
Thanks,
Danny
PS
I have already installed "Select Other Map for HTC" which solves the same problem but for the contacts address.
If you are on a custom Rom, and have the option of removing HTC locations, then this will generate the prompt to use google maps

Great idea, but I'm on the original ROM (and don't have any intentions to change). I'm not so familiar with these kinds of things.
Any other suggestion?
Thanks,Danny
I know this is an old thread, but I was looking for the same thing. I am on stock as well and ended up by just disabling locations. You can do it in settings > apps .
I even don't know what keywords to use in search to find what I want.
I'll tell my question in descriptive way.
I have tourist application which shows me point to see.
When I click 'go to it' - I have choice. I can pick up Google maps or navigation.
Problem is that I have two navigations and would like to use the other but it is not on list.
Somehow application knew that I have navigation. Why didn't it pick up both?
Does user has any way to intervene and add extra choice?
This is real life example but this situation occurrs on other areas.
For example I want share a file, picture or something else.
One app allows me select AndSMB to send file, other doesn't have it on list however both use sharing feature and must be able to review phone to know what they have till hands..
It is general question but i preferred to stick to my phone model, just in case if it is significant..
Any ideas?
Choose the apps you mention, open in Settings -> Apps and click on Clear Defaults!
Not sent by me.
Yes but later you still can assign as default only one of suggested.
Question is - how to add one which doesn't appear on screen.
