Hi this is my first android as well (got mine yesterday)
I must admit i havn't really installed that many apps yet.. but i can recommend the "google goggles" and "asphalt 5"
-TB-
I would also like to know.
Performance increasing apps?
Useful (swiss army knife) apps?
Amazing recreational must haves?
Thanks.
AutoKiller - memory managment
Barcode Sanner - for getting links to apps from the internet
If using mytracks:
Linda file manager - to import tracks
My track editor
A nice widget is smooth calendar if you have a lot of appointments.

I love the SMS popup program
Australian phone - Found some of the best ones were ES Task Manager, Handcent for SMS/MMS and the ability to change tones via, Camera 360 for an app which enhances everything you can do with the camera, SMS backup to backup to Gmail account and Wheres my Droid which allows you to send a message to the phone when it is on silent which takes the silencer off and triggers the ringtone, enabling you to find it if you have misplaced it. Also another handy one is 3G watchdog which keeps an eye on your data usage.
I like:
AutoKiller (needs root)
Launcherpro
Homeswitcher
Appremover
Appsinstaller
MyBackup Pro
Fancywidget
Extended Controls
LeshaK's update.zip found here
I'm going to have to second launcherpro, really great app.
I can't find fancywidget in the market, is it under a new name maybe?
Also, while shazam is really nice and very accurate for commercial radio, is there another app that's aimed at more obscure/australian music music (I listen to Triple J if that helps)?
Finally can someone recommend a good news widget for australia.

I have also noticed this, although some songs arent registered in the shazam database

HTC complaned and it got pulled off the market i think. You will have to find an alternate source.
Since its installed on my phone can i extract the apk? I would be happy to upload somewhere.

"Got To Do" is my must have app. Was the reason to go for Android instead of the iPhone. "Note Everything Pro" is also great.

It's weird, I checked everywhere for the APK file, and couldn't find it. I managed to get a QR code from their site, and that led me to the android market place, where i could download the file
this other topic has it linked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7221914&posted=1#post7221914
Does anyone know of a image/picture/photo viewer that displays jpg, gif, png, and bmp? I found a couple, but they are garbage.
Dimmer is useful if you like to keep display brightness down (more than you can adjust in system settings) and save battery.

Hello guys, im the developer of Root Call Blocker, an advanced call and SMS blocking app for rooted phones.
The app's home is here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051274
We have had multiple reports that blocking is not working sometimes on American phones, so we need some nice people to do some testing.
You can use the Groups function of the Lite version to do the testing - it gives you almost everything youd want from the app anyway.
Please post comments here, but also use the "Write to us" dialog in settings.
ill test it can u send me the apk to [email protected]
Whoa there, lets start by reading the op shall we?
Is this like Mr. Blocker? I use my phone for around 80% of ps3 gaming. and I like forwarding everything to voicemail and Google voice messaging does this have that option

Good question. I am curios as well. Also .... off topic.... how are you using your phone for ps3 gaming?
Sent from my Droid Incredible 2
Voicemail is a carrier, not phone-based service. If you use VM, then VM is what you get when you use the appropriate reject method.
But I'm curious why you would ask me instead of trying it yourself.

Back to topic please
This is great!
Enjoy... and remember, an update is always just around the corner! If you have problems, use "Write to us" in Settings! Dont be shy!
Could you guys please test the following behavior for me:
1. How the app behaves when a blocked number attempts to connect during call waiting
2. How a blocked caller is handled when "Dont answer" is set as the reject method and you are currently on the phone and have not enabled blocked call vibrate notifications within the app itself
Dont forget to send logs with descriptions as well
Come on people, i really need some feedback on this!
Im not kidding people - testing is what its all about!
Me, and my girlfriend both use it. The only problem I've had, is it lets picture messages through. Other than that, it works great.
Sent from my DInc 2
It doesn't let them through. It has nothing to do with them at all!
Lol - this is a great bit of software, worth the money!
It blocks messages too? So I would say it does.
Sent from my DInc 2
It blocks sms and calls.
Anything to report?
Whats with 1.7.1? Any issues?
Man, this thing is so annoying. I have a habit of double-tapping the home button to get to my desktop and I suppose the new function goes to Voice Talk. I don't want it to go there and I can't remove/remap it. Any clue on how to get rid of it?
yah thats in settings, go to motions in settings and uncheck double tap! that should fix it
You'll have to wait till our phones get rooted to completely remove any stock apps.

That does not fix it for me, I have all motion turned off, and still get the vlingo terms of service when I double tap home. Which I then decline every time. Very Annoying.
Same issue here. I want it to behave like Sense and display all of my homescreens (zoomed out). What does the 'home' key have to do with Voice Talk and Vlingo anyway?!
What would u like to do ???
Lol cant get it off either
Tmo Galaxy S2
Damn near a deal breaker
I like the plain voice commands from android and I'd like to do what I've been doing for the last couple of years - push the headset button, say what I want and have it just happen. I'm going to play with this a while longer but I'm going to give the phone back if it doesn't work exactly like I want. It's too much money to live with like I did the Vibrant - till the guys here made it work.
I don't mind something being no removable if there's an option to use something else. If any of you know how to change the settings so the original vlingo by Samsung isn't the automatic choice, that would be greatly appreciated.
Yep checked off double tap and it still goes into voice talk

UNinstall voice command-voice talk- voice search using titanium backup if rooted. if not rooted- see previous posts.
I prefer the vlingo app from market(which needs voice search app,also available in market).

It's been gone since the first update from when the phone was released... I don't know exactly which update, but I noticed it being gone after an OTA.
One easy way if your running ICS is to install go Launcher, open app drawer, long press voice command icon, un install, Vlingo gone! Un install go Launcher. No rooting required.
HOLY SHII
This solution that GDF01 is talking about, is not only very easy, but also very awesome! I removed Voice talk and Chat and other stuff, and i ICS-froze Readers Hub and all that stuff, so now I have a fully functional and great phone, without rooting or anything! Thanks!!
Hello,
I have built a new application named MusicTimeOff. You can find it in this link
A big part of coding was done with my nexus 7.
The app stops the music after a certain period of time which use will define.
This idea came to me when I left my phone playing music at night and in the morning it was dead ( battery 0% ) so I thought a program to stop music will be useful. Furthermore , the other apps in the market is more complicated and some of them is paid, so I developed this app alone.
There are also other useful features.
Check it out , it worths the time.
Thanks bro, very useful using it now.
You have no idea how long I've wanted something like this! Awesome.

I used to be a Pebble user and there was an app I used a lot called Pebble Pulse that you used to take someone's pulse. You pushed a button, counted 10 beats and pushed it again and it would tell you the person's pulse. I can't find anything like it for Android Wear.
What android wear device are you using?
Moto 360
I have this pretty much done just need to figure out how to make it an installable apk for a wear device and then I will post it. Stand by!

Awesome!!! You rock
Well that was a pain in the arse to publish. Took me way longer to publish than to write the darn thing. Here's a link to the apk:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2zqrXJ0FV50WE0zWjFIcjItTE0/view?usp=sharing
Basically just tap the screen to start, count 10 beats, tap again.
Make sure you have "unknown sources" checked on your phone to be able to install the apk. Let me know what you think. It is bare bones and I don't wan't to put it in the play store until I get your feedback. Do you think there is a demand for an app like this?
If after installing on your phone, the app doesn't show on your 360 for some reason, let me know.
Ok you rock, where do I donate?
EMS related apps are hard to find. I think it's an untapped genre
Awesome! Glad you like it! Any suggestions? I added a "Donate to me" button under my name on the left. Thanks!
It's simple, works great. It's fine for me. Others might like color controls or something I guess... Not sure
Btw, let me know when you get it in Google play. I'll be the first to review it
Were you ever going to put this on the Play Store?
doesn't uninstall!
Installs fine here. I've installed it on 4.4.2 and 5.0
What does it tell you when you try?
Btw, I use this app all the time! Thank you very much. It's very accurate also.

I as well, was a pebble user (also thank you for telling me about Pulse Timer) just got my LG Urbane and this app is the first app installed. The most useful medical app out there.
THANK YOU!!!
Ems Breaths timer?
Can the same exact thing for breaths per minute? The app can look exactly the same but instead of tapping after 10 heartbeats, you would tap after two breaths?
I don't think this app will work for that but it would be great to have heart rate on top and ventilations on bottom.
Sent from my LG-AS991 using Tapatalk
Hey guys! So sorry I missed all this. I thought I was subscribed to the thread, but I wasn't, so I never got emails for posts and this kinda fell by the wayside for me.
I would love to modify the app to do ventilation on bottom. I will work on it this weekend and will have it ready by next week. I do have my own developer account now (previously was just my work account), so once I get it done I will put this in the app store for all to download. I won't charge anything for it.
I'm very glad to hear this app is being used! It's really nice to know this is something that can be used to help someone in trouble, and that to me is the most rewarding thing.
I will update here once I have this ready to go.
