I wish it did work but... it didn't (with Desire HD and Gingerbread ROMs). The only voice recorded was my side. Thanks though!

Or you might want to try this one here . http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/communication/2way-call-recorder-free_orcr.html trial version only supports 60sec of record but there is a paid version of the same . Release notes say upgraded to 2.3 support

I would love to see a pocket Quicken type application that fully syncs with the desktop application using wifi. It is the only app I have not found an equivalent coming from WM.

Well from what iv'e read so far (i love google) Quicken are pretty much calling it a day . But some good news is that they appear to have merged with mint.com who do infact have an app out http://www.mint.com/features/android/ I don't know if this will do what you need it to or even if it's close to what you want but might be worth a browse around for you

Thanks, Mint would be interesting but it is currently only for the US and Canada it seems. I am waiting on MoneyDance to hopefully release a Android App, they have an iPhone App that syncs with their desktop app.

anybody else having problems with the android xda app

is anyone else using the xda app here I can't get it to do much of anything once I log in.
Since updating to 2.0.71 from 1.0.84 the xda app has been pretty much useless.
It force closes often while trying to view threads and ALWAYS force closes on exit if I'm logged in so it loses the login data. Start up time is also excessive.
Had no problems on the 2.1 firmware whatsoever.
Market problem? Firmware problem? App problem?
Confirmed... alas, it didn't work from the start, even with 2.1.
Same problems here.

It never worked for me, either. I remember with my Eris that when we got Froyo we had to use an older version of XDA for a while. My first Archos died before i could investigate, and i just got my replacement yesterday. I will try to find an older version.
If anyone has an older one they could post...Im too scared to search the XDA forums with any of these keywords "xda, apk, developer, application"...
Xda app is never work once I logged in, failed.
I use tapatalk, working perfectly on my A70IT. Xda app is based on tapatalk, it looks identical.
doesnt work for me too

Thanks, that certainly works better! Although, with this version theres no favourite forum feature? So you have to navigate to the required forum each time - unless I'm missing something?

I have two Android tablets, an Archos 101 and a Zenithink ZT-180. Neither one works with the newer XDA application - FC after a few clicks. This older version does run, though devoid of most features that makes it useful. Is anyone embarassed?
Bye.
It's a shame,the new version is so much better,the old version works but lacks off all the practical features ,is this apply even in further development or is it frozen.
New on here .
Xda app works perfect on my desire, but the app fails every time on my archos 70 as soon as i sign in .

GPS Navigation

Is there a good working navigation program? I tried with navigon but it wouldn't start. Tried out IGO with 800x600 resolution but it will only use 1/3 of the screen?
Any good tips?
Have you tried Google Maps or Navigation?
Brian
Yes but I would like to have maps in phone, not downloading when you need it cause it's gonna be expensive when drive down in Europe.
Try Sygic 11.2.3
It's very nice and compatible with ICS.

You can precache areas in google maps so you can navigate the route even if you have your cellular turned off when driving.

Pre cache does work great but won't do navigation mode w/o an internet connection sadly. Still very useful as long as your not driving...

I tried Igo (build 8.4.2.139242).
It works but it uses only 1/3 of the screen, so it was very small. It said it was 800x600 resolution and thought it would stretch out to fill the screen but it didn't.
Downloaded Route 66 Follow me from market place. You get 30 day's trail.
It works but the follow me function in which you use the camera wouldn't work.
Addresses are also incomplete for Sweden so will see if I find another one to try.
Copilot just updated their app and it now works perfectly.

[APP] - S-Voice from SGS3

Here it is:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/5cmb7i
I've extracted from the SGS3 rom leak and uploaded to SS.
It installs fine, it starts off with a delay but after a few minutes it works well. Works with calling and SMS. Seems fine bit buggy but working.
ok and this application is what more or better than vlingo
it is useful to test or not
Thanks for the upload! Some features work, others don't, one problem is though that the apps speech doesn't seem to be the same as shown on the videos, could this be because of lack of Wolfram Alpha or something? (Or am I just talking rubbish lol)
you're talking rubbish...
the voice has nothing to do with the app itself,
it uses which ever is the default tts on the phone,
you want a new voice get a different tts

I would highly recommend for everyone to go on the Play Store and install Ivona Amy UK English Beta application, then set it as your default TTS (to do this open the application) S-Voice sounds 10 times better and more natural like this.

It think S-Voice is actually vlingo since when you authorize Facebook it ask permission for vlingo not S-Voice.
Not bad but I'll stick with AIVC. It works smoother for me and the voice output is much better. The male voice is very nice, hehe.

(click apply after this)
Then force close pandora, clear data and restart it

You can use adfreetime, I do, I'm in Canada and it works great for Pandora and spotify. Also includes ad blocker and netflix region switcher. $2 per month. www.adfreetime.com
I have recently rooted my 2012 N7 and am trying to put a modded Pandora apk on it but it won't install. I have unknown sources checked and have installed other 3rd party apps. Has anyone had this happen to them, whether it's this app or another one?
