Tasker. The app that automates your phone. Takes a while to learn and more expensive than most apps but you can do so much with it.

Sketchit very good game for our stylus.

Titanium Backup Pro....
I just keep finding more and more uses for it. ... Now I could never live without it...
Sent from my Giant i317 Pocket Monster!

Here's the list of apps that I've become quite fond of (besides the usual - Facebook, Twitter, etc.):
Shazam - Need to know what a song is quick? Shazam will find out for you.
TuneIn Radio Pro - Music junkie? Enjoy streaming radio? This app is great to have.
Dropbox - Useful for transferring files between your phone, computer, or other devices wirelessly.
Google Drive - Documents/Storage on the Go
Pixlr Express - Photo editing (filters, effects, adjustments, you name it).
SketchBook Mobile - advanced drawing capabilities on your phone - layers, different brushes/sizes/full color palette, really fun to use.
Osmos HD - Absorb the lifeforms around you and avoid being absorbed. Great time waster.
Ski Safari - Beat the avalanche, collect coins, pull off stunts and earn achievements. Another great time waster.
(Note: A few of these apps aren't free. For SketchBook, there's an express version, and there's a demo of Osmos HD.)

Here are some cool ones:
TeamViewer - Awesome for remoting into your desktop. Only thing is, you have to install the app on your desktop, too.
aCar - Want to keep track of your gas mileage and other services? I have not seen a better app on Android for that purpose.
Waze - Ok, may not always provide the best route, but it does a good job of getting you from A to B and letting you know of things that might be along your way...like cops, traffic, etc.
Tip Me (Tip Calculator) - Self explanatory.
Productivity?
Evernote - I guess you wouldn't need this as much if you're using S-note, but it's a great note taking app that syncs across all platforms.
Kingsoft Office - Some of the paid office apps are better IMO, but this one is free.
Adobe Reader - If you want to read PDF's, this is the app to use. The interface is simply the best for reading PDFs. Came in handy many times when needing to look at a service manual while working on my bikes.
Shooting Game?
Critical Strike Portable - Were you a Counter-Strike fan? Well, this game really is Counter-Strike ported to Android.
Time Killing Games?
Angry Birds - this is a given...
World of Goo - not free, but a very interesting game. Not only is it a time killer, but it's also a puzzle game.
Well, these are the ones I can think of at the moment...

Try Falcon pro for a Twitter client

definitely you need NFSMW, very coooool racing game by EA

I'm 51 and brand new to Android coming from an old iPhone 3gs. I use both a MacBook as well as PC running W8. I got a lot of Google Play gift cards from Santa so I've been having quite a bit of fun.
At the prompting of a 16yr old friend I rooted my phone with CleanROM SE 1.0 which is running like a champ.
Stuff I use all the time.
Nova Prime - already purchased before installing CleanROM
Zedge - yeah nuff said
Airdroid - wifi connection to my macbook and the only solid way I've been able to get the phone and osx to communicate.
ASTRO File
TuneSync
Titanium Backup
Juice Defender
QR Droid
Pocket
BeyondPod
MailDroid - best replacement I've found for apple mail.
HD Widgets
Fun stuff
Angry Birds
Paper Camera
HD Panorama
Pixlr Express

For a twitter client, I really like Slices for Twitter. It lets you group people you follow into slices so you can view only tweets from a particular group of people. Makes managing lots of twitter follows much easier!

Angry Birds is out!

So I see Angry Birds Beta is out on Market. For those that never had an iPhone or seen the game - its amazingly addictive and the #1 seller in that genre on iTunes.
Unfortunately the sucker FC's on my 2.2 JPC - anyone got it working?
... and Finnish-made
works flawless on my JPC, awesome game can't wait for the full version

I had to move it back and forth from the memory card a few times to get it to work
Why am I not seeing it in my market? I've searched and went to the games just in? I live in chicago, what time did it drop where you live?

Does anybody know how can I get it? As I cannot find it "on the market"
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Looks heavily overhyped.. Played many games which seem almost exactly the same on flash before.. Anything special about this one (didn't seem to be from the preview)
I had issues installing via market but worked via the AppBrain
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.rovio.angrybirds_lite
I played it on an 1st gen ipod touch, but on the SGS S-AMOLED its luuurvely
Play the game mate before you make assumptions
Installed it just now, works amazingly, IMO it works better than the iPhone/iPod Touch version. The graphics are crisp and stunning on the SGS's screen, the game is fast and doesn't lag at all, it lags on my iPod Touch at times. Overall much more enjoyable on a 4 inch SUPER AMOLED screen
Can't wait till the full version is out, looks promising at the moment.
Oh and to the people who can't find it, get Eris Market Fix from the Market and apply it, reboot your SGS and it should be there.
..
cant see it either, ffs samsung!
Can´t find it too. Shows up on Appbrain but when going to market it can´t be found.
Here you go.... http://www.mediafire.com/?j797r19xtm78g1z
I'm struggling to install this on my galaxy...i can download from the market, but it refuses to install.
I tried to pm install the file from a folder on my sdcard, but see this:
Install_failed_container_error
I'm using a lag fix, and wonder if this is contributing to the issue.
Can anyone help?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
any ideas when will the full version be out? ive almost completed the game man
Very nice and funny game !!
Cant wait to get my hands on the full version
Really funny game.. cant wait for full version
Or get it here
Funny game. Doesn´t look like a beta, works very well. Hope the Full version has a lot of new levels.
nice game, heard it before from friend with iphone.

Order & Chaos Online MMORPG now on Market

The MMORPG Order & Chaos has just been released on the Android Market. Most gameloft games are pretty good, so I am thinking ahout buying it!
I thought maybe this would be a thread for people to talk about it and maybe add each other. Make a Galaxy S II XDA clan or something This game is fun for playing with friends, offcourse.
So, people that bought it: is it worth it?
Price: 5.49 euro.
Im planing on buy the game to
is the game worth it ?
thx
Hello,
I've bought Order & Chaos yesterday but I have already posted on the gameloft technical forum because the game doesn't run smoothly on the SGS2!
There are several issues:.
1. The game often freezes for 1 sec, this happens every 30 sec/1min. The game doesn't really run smoothly.
2. Opening the minimap takes 2 sec and browsing the minimap is really slow
3. In the options, asking for the ping indicator or the camera being vertically or horizontally fixed doesn't work
The gameloft custumer care has already told me that the dev team is working on these issues and apparently I'm not the only SGS2 owner who has these issues.
I hope they are going to resolve this pretty quickly (especially the freeze/lag) because the game in itself is really fun and addictive

I have same problems like you, but i have freezes for 1-2 sec every 10 sec . I hope they will fix it soon.
Market Web Link
I too am having the freezes.
Wonder what they where thinking when they decided you need WiFi to play it...
Do they think people are walking around with WiFi routers in their pockets?
Fail!
This game is Huge, Massive, GODLIKE. Such an incredibly detailed game and plays beautifully. Insanely addicted. Seriously, this is World of Warcradt IN YOUR POCKET!
I just downloaded this game, it is very very nice, and with Anti Aliasing 4x (thanks Chainfire3d) The graphics take a whole new dimension.
The problem is this random stutter/freeze mentioned by everyone every zone loading.
Will wait for a fix, game looks great.
Hows this compared to pocket legends?
Its also a WoW counterpart.
i was thinking about buy it.. but with the freeze problem.. oh ****
This happens due to GPU not running at 267Mhz I believe but at a lower clock rate. This happens on Asphalt 6 and GangsterMiami etc.

Pocket Legends has NOTHING on O&C. This game is just something that you would never imagine possible on this sort of hardware. It's incredible.

It can only remove the cache on YOUR PHONE; all game data (characters/maps/weapons in your inventory) is stored on the GameLoft server.
Im actually refering to the big downloaded data through wifi..

Some guys said that flashing a kernel that supports Tegrak, and installing this app might fix the freezes.
I'm on Oxygen, not really having the time to test this, but anyone on stock might give this a try and post feedback.
- install Tegrak
- OC the GPU to 257 Mhz, or find a good clock
- you might as well downclock the CPU a bit to prevent heating, 800 will be enough to run this.

Working games list

As we all know this phone has a issue with some games. I thought it would be useful to list the games that did and did not work for you. I'll start.
Working games:
Game developer story: Sound cuts out from time to time but have not had a crash with any of their games.
Myth Defense: Works with sound off. No need to change the graphics.
Muffin Knight: Works most of the time but I read reports of it crashing.
Non working games:
Dungeon Defenders: Large mobs crash it. And something about the mob coming from the left if your facing the crystals. He has his own door. Whenever I attack him the game crashes. Coding glitch maybe?
G5 stand O food 3: Crashes randomly. I doubt any G5 games will work for us.
Other notes:
I've been e-mailing developers asking them to give us a option to turn off sound instead of turning the sound down.
Tetris crashes randomly

Words Free - Works fine so far.
Godville - Works fine
Gameloft -

And my "all-time-favorite-Android game": Diversion, works perfectly, and looks amazing on our screen.

Anyone else get that game maybe sideloaded from another device?)

fun Augmented Reality?

having owned the PS vita for a short while, I found AR is quite interesting.
is there good AR apps (not maps etc), more of static objects or maybe games, that looks and feel as good as PS vita AR.
so I guess, there are no cool ar apps so far!
try looking at Aurasma from the play store,

thanks for the info,
sadly the application is way much worse than the psp AR, I hope someone will come up with a good ar app.
Not really AR, but kind of cool effect
