For me it would be Facebook, Engadget, Android Chive, and Shush!
Shush! Is a an app that silences your phone for a certain amount of time. Say if you're going to class for an hour then you can silence it for an hour. If your going to watch a movie you can silence it for two hours. Really helpful for people that can forget to turn their ringer back on.

How well does rom manager do? Does it restore apps as well?
Btw I use xda the most. Constantlychecking for new roms or opinions.
Instead of pulse y'all should taptu.

the only thing I use ROM manager for is to backup a ROM. It'll reboot into recovery, backup the ROM, then revolts when its done. You can install .zips from it. It does have ROMs available to download but its scarce. XDA site is much better. As far as I know rom manager does not install apps. I use titanium backup to back up my apparently plus the data within them so when I flash I don't have to download everything again

Dolphin HD. Not a day goes by I don't use every one of those.
I don't get why people use the stock browser
Dolphin HD is by FAR the best browser for android.

I thought the same thing, you should try Maxthon browser though. It's faster and you can install themes on it. My go to now.

The March Madness NCAA app? You don't need to to pay.
Just text 0byu to 2653 and you will get a code to sign up for free.
The app works with Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.1
Can I wipe and flash from CM9 on stock CM9 recovery with FC07 kernel.? OR should I go back to EL29 and CM7 and then flash?
I've got 4.0.3 with FC07 modem, and the first add shows but then the game doesnt stream.
What browser are you using that you get it working on?
Same as above.

I guess the guys who posted the app works didn't understand what I was asking. The app works fine but I've not had any luck with getting the games to stream in any game with any browser.
Saw that the OP for AOKP ROM now is updated to include the issue of video playback not working. My guess is going back to GB will fix the issue.

Chrome has become my daily browser since I started using Dolphin with my Nexus One.
With the last update for Chrome and FF09, it's the smoothest browser I've used on Android. However, there are still instances where scrolling is jerky and sometimes scrolling stops working for half a minute. It seems like it only happens when I try to scroll while a page hasn't finished loading, but all of the browsers I've tried seem to have issues with scrolling an incomplete page. Closing and reopening the tab will fix the jerky scrolling.
Chrome also freezes on me forcing me to force stop it through settings -> applications. I cannot reliably reproduce this problem and it is annoying, but the benefits of having access to the open tabs on my computer on my phone outweigh this problem.
I do wish Google would iterate the Chrome beta app as fast as they iterate the desktop version of Chrome beta because I'm assuming they mean for this browser to become to default one on Android and jerky scrolling and freezes is pretty bad.
I absolutely do not know which Chrome people are using that they find "buttery smooth" and "fast". It is a terrible laggy and crappy browser on my end. The last update killed it for me where it only launches to a white screen and just freezes. If and when it does decide to work properly, it's stutters and jib-jabs when scrolling, no flash, just all around terrible. No wonder it's surname is still BETA.
Dolphin browser (mini or HD) puts it to shame, really.
You can also try firefox... It's very smooth, and untill now, I didnt find any problem
I like it but I never use it. No flash is... well, no flash. No plugin support like the rest of em either. you'd think with google being the og devs for android. Could make it all work out.

Apple has been pressuring everyone to ditch flash for years. From what ive heard Jobs HATED Adobe which is why no apple product ever supported flash. If its not Apple tech or built specifically for and around apple, this is what they would do. Iphones dominance early on is what helped them succeed in killing flash.
If apple doesn't like something they will go to extremes to destroy it. They have to protect their one good idea per decade somehow I suppose!

Ya i checked settings and tried both user interfaces. I'm not that much of a noob. I tried 4 browsers. It works after installing the apk file i found online. I was really pissed off. The flash installer from Google play doesn't work. Search Google for flash player apk.

Attached is the flashplayer.apk that works on JB...should be able to install with apk manager...if that doesn't work move to /system/app and reboot...i take no credit for this as I just found it and figured I would post for all to benefit.

is anyone experiencing flash not supporting/allowing full screen? had this question asked but since I don't use JB I can't answer it...
Does this work for any JB based rom? or only for aosp roms? Id like to switch to touch wiz JB based roms from ICS. Flash is the only reason why ive stayed with ICS
Just our luck that when we need to find a video that requires flash for testing purposes, we can't find a one. LoL

This flashplayer works but is there any way to stop the phone from going in to sleep mode while watching flash video? I never had this problem in ICS but when I switched to a JB rom now when the screen times out it goes off and kills the video rather than stay on the length of the video that is playing in flash. Thanks in advance for any help.
