task sync
+1 for gtasks
Also, astrid [oldest and arguably best task mgmt for android] has google task sync in beta last time I checked.

Excellent. flashing CM7.1 and will try it. Thanks.
Yes it really it is
Gtask or astrid - none if them have SMS options as reminder in Google calendar service. Was looking for that options specially.

Hmmm... Honestly, I don't remember the Google tasks being that robust anyways... If you are looking for features try productiv with astrid or whassat flashy one? Oh yeah any.do is aesthetic and has more features than the Google tasks... Tasks can be added from gmail methinks... But all in all, when I look at Google's Task service compared to other services, I recognize it for what it was and is, an afterthought.
Wish it were different, but Much better off using Google Calendar for reminders.. Tasks may get there one day ::shrug::
PS you want some kind of calendar/task tie together... May have to recommend Touchdown.. but its a bit pricey.
PSS 5 seconds later... Googled: "sms reminder apk" (since that is feature you wish for). SMS reminder pro came up twice at the top ::shrug:: haven't personally tested but if I'm bored, I'd Google something like that I wished to test. (Google search tip: apk says Android application better than writing it out would)
Ok... Bad advice... Went to market and read descript... It reminds you about missed sms's...
Change that to something else I haven't tested but appears to be in the vein you are searching for...

If someone is looking for a Calendar app integrated with Google tasks, you can search for Calendar++ or Calendar++ free on Google Play, it is new, unnoticed, but I promise it is a surprise for your. Thank your for trying.

Hello guys!
I am actually one of the few that enjoys Samsung's SNS thingy - I open up a contact and see their Facebook status and whatnot.
I also change ROMs often, and I end up reinstalling or restoring all the SNS components, which forces me to re-join contacts, manually delete duplicate birthdays and whatnot.
Is there a replacement you know of? I mean, an independent contacts app which syncs to Google and Facebook (and possibly Twitter, LinkedIn) and does the contact management externally? That way, whenever I install a new ROM, I will just restore this app and have my contacts as they should.
Any help would be appreciated!

I tried googling it but didn't find any. Can you post the market link?
I am trying to replace the stock contact app altogether - it may sync with Google, but I want it to be rom-independent. Like Dolphin to browsers and GoSMS to messages.
Have a look at this:

Tried them both. They both don't help as they just display the existing contacts - so I am still required to use Samsung's SNS to sync the Facebook data. My point is to stop using SNS but remain with the same functionality.
I'm giving up
Probably forfeit the need to use the SNS features.
This is just a thread for thoughts and ideas that people want to share!
I like apps and after owning windows 7, iPhone and android I have an idea for how apps should look like, if anyone own iOS they can tell you tweetbot is one of the best apps on it, or android tweet lanes looks really good but needs speeds performance, anyways I would like to know what apps you like the a lot but would love to be updated to ICS Holo look and feel, IMO the app that I used the most is Tapatalk, probably the best money I spent on android app so far(and titanium backup anyways the app is great but miss the ICS feel, I wish they could updated to make it feel more Holo look and feel like tweet lanes, swiping will be cool to go from recent to favorites , what app would you like updated?

I would love for the HD netflix app to be updated.
I'd like the Hotmail app to be renamed to "Outlook" and completely redesigned/updated to match the web interface of the new Outlook.com email client released by Microsoft.
And for those who don't know what I'm talking about, the new Outlook.com really does compete and even beat out Gmail in MANY aspects including features, simplicity, and attachment size allowed.

Yeah I signed up a few days ago and thinking of using it as my main email, but like you said that app needs yo get updated for sure

Yeah I've been with them for a while. From msn to hotmail and now to outlook. The new look is awesome.
I wish they would update 2 apps.
1. Awesome Beats - so it works with apps other than Google Play.
2. CWM Touch Recovery - so it saves backups with the correct date and time.
For the life of me I can't figure this out. Anyone else having the same issues or know how to do this.
You'll have to wait for a Dev to add it in on a rom, their are apps that do it too I use hax sync on my galaxy nexus

Hey everyone,
I have been going through the apps list of apps I have previously used or bought. I am getting to find replacements for contacts, dialer, messenger, email and whatever else.
I believe the extra power and memory we have really opens up some options some of us really did not have before with lesser phones.
So can we come up with some replacements that will work well with this phone? Some general instructions on set up and a link would be great if possible.
Still loving my Nexus 4!!! Still cannot believe I paid more for my last phone which was Galaxy S Plus.. I am so happy with this!! Now I just need to tweak a few things, mainly my email and contacts.
Thanks all!!!! I'm glad to know that I am not the only one that is obsessed with tech..

Try Handcent...

Handcent user here also. Best and only app i use for messaging!!
Yeah, I have used those in the past actually. Ideally I would love something that manage contacts a little better and ties in with messenger and dialer.
Stock isn't bad really but I just think there is better and I wanted opinions. Some of the noon stock replacements really use tools of battery. Something that sips memory and battery is a requirement for me.
Thanks for the opinions dudes

How about exDialer? I used to use it before I had the N4. App includes a "search based" dialer and contacts.
I'm fine with all the stock apps

I just wish google would add T9 dialing. That's the sole complaint I have about the stock apps.
replaced chrome w/ aosp browser
replaced email with enhanced email
replaced mms and voice with black inverted gapps
I really like the way gmail and the other stock email program sync with the phone. Contacts, etc are synced right when you add an account.
My issue at least regarding email is that I have many, many many accounts. I need to have at least 20 of them on my phone. This means multiple gmail accounts and multiple accounts on the other email program. I hate having to have 2 email programs running.
I have tried and bought many of the email apps, enhanced, IMO, k9, and the others but none of them worked well with this many accounts. Also, I need to have my email contacts synced like the stock apps.
My requirements are an email replacement that syncs contacts and can run multiple imap and pop accounts.
Battery life is also a major concern with this many accounts. Right more do not have these accounts auto syncing or pushing. I refresh manually. The problem with this is that I miss important emails.
As for the rest of the replacements I guess I am just looking to see of there is anything better than the stock dialer/contacts/mms.. The important thing for me is that all of these apps really have to work together. Dialer, contacts, mms, email... these all need to work as one. Is there as replacement that does this?
Thanks all

I'll give it a try. Do you know if there is a way to make a space in between lines/paragraphs of text when making a note for a task? You know like you hit enter to skip to the next line and hit it twice to leave an empty line so you can write something with a new topic below it? For example:
Topic 1 (then hit enter)
Topic 2
It seems like a pretty basic feature but I can't figure out how to do it with Any.Do. Every time I try to hit the enter button, it just submits my note as if I am done typing when really I want to go to the next line. It's somewhat annoying now because as you are typing in the note box for a task, it only shows one long sentence/line of text. It would be much easier to read/input longer notes if you could add in blank lines and see the entire note at once instead of just 1 line.
Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to make a new line. Although I do see what you're saying, it would make it easier to write long reminders.

That's too bad but it is a great app otherwise. Hopefully they add it later. Someone had mentioned in the feedback requested feature setting that issue with chrome and Any.Do and they responded with they are working on it. Hopefully if they fix it in chrome, they will add the same feature to the app.
The best thing to do is to mail them. They are very responsive and they might add it. I've mailed them a few times and they have responded.

Also check out Notif Pro. Allows you to put ongoing notifications in the notification window, including pictures (like when you take a screenshot), lists, reminders, etc. Dev just released a major update, made it even better!

Except ANY.DO doesn't seem to have any autosync feature. It will sync manually, but I want to enter a task and have it sync the task immediately without any intervention. Without autosync, it is just pretty and that is about it

AW: What Reminder/To-Do App do you Use?
+1 for Astrid.
I use a combination of Evernote and GTasks. The latter is an app that integrates with Google Tasks and Google Calendar so that works really well. It lets me set priority an d due date/time, not sure about location. but it does pick up the location from Google Calendar pretty well.
