piklz android must haves list
- beautifulwidgets
why i like? nice weather widget with hotlinks + hotkey icons-widgets for your desktop like silence timer batt wifi etc
install beautifulwidgets - poweramp
why i like? has lockscreen controls capabilty-great! reat equalizer /tone controls +preamp! like winamp on your phone!
install poweramp - adownloader
|why i like? its a torrent link downloader for your phone!! + rss list feed and search from within app! genius
install adownloader - app2sd
why i like? if you have been running out of space on your internal storage? fear not as I give you app2sd a must have for moving your apps over(you can do it yourself within android but this checks for you and sends notifications) and freeing up android systems internal storage for those apps with widgets you have used in your dekstop (which thanks to android can’t by nature be moved over yet.you lose widgets on screen if you try) It even notifies you if the app can be moved (as some won’t you see.Devs still need to add to the app piece of code to allow such a menial task like moving them over ?!:O )
install app2sd - dolphinHd (browser)|
why i like? is a good browser for testing ipad,iphone apps (web dev)plays well with tvcatchup etc(if set to ipad) nice cloud bookmark features can run like an ipad,has tabs like firefox,
install dolphinHD - flashlight
why i like? its a flash light using the led and the screen for light source + recent update allows swtich led on in lock screen mode via a shake of the phone! nice and quick
install tiny flashlight - mxvideo player
why i like? well whats not to like! it does all kinds of vid codecs inc those pesky movs files too! Hardware accelerated and has many swipe features ,is just a great viewer of movies and the dev likes to make sure he points out the various reasons for permissions unlike some movie player apps
install mxvideo - Juicedefender
why i like? well it saves your battery life more than most apps and it does it very simply or as complex as you like – wanna switch on wifi when you reach work ,,done.want some per application settings, yes sir. Loads of event types; one click affair ( although i havent bought it yet due to not having cpu scaling suported on sg2 but its still an amazing app anyway just read first which models that feature may be supported on as it will give you even more batt life!)
install juicedefender - Justpictures
why i like? very fast picture viewer really nice alternative to the built in gallery ,has foler selections and flickr retrieval etc
install justpictures - androzip
why i like? its a zip viewer for android nuff said great for thos downloads from adownloader above!
install androzip - switftkeyX
why i like? its a premier keyboard replacement for the built in one, (chunky fingers getting in the way of your masterpiece txt?) many features, learns as you time for better gramma on future texts and many languages to choose from
install swiftkeyX - snesoid
why i like? snes console emulator of course! gotta get that on there ! - samsungsmartview/remote
why i like? if your have a 2011 tv from samsung it will give you remote control switch on/off (bluetooth usually built in to tv for this )and remote tv watching live on phone(aerial input only i believe) - voodoocarrierIQ
why i like? source engadget : “Carrier IQ has recently found itself swimming in controversy. The analytics company and its eponymous software have come under fire from security researchers, privacy advocates and legal critics not only for the data it gathers, but also for its lack of transparency regarding the use of said information”
it basically tells you if your carrier is using said software on your phone -use it once then you could uninstall - camerazoomFX
why i like? really good camera features -effects, exposure,timelapse, voice activation etc supports ping.fm for facebook,twitter,flickr sharing.
install camerazoomFX - skifta
why i like?
if you don’t have a samsung(for some dlna media streaming to tv without hdmi cables fun times ) you can fling your android/pc/xbox/ps3 media to any of the same appliances,(mix and match!) listed. Need upnp on network for smooth operations.
install skifta - Speaktoit
why i like?
if you fancy some iphone siri assistant on your android look no further than Speaktoit, can find things on map,convert, play your music, very conversational, also theres iris (siri spelt backwards! how juvenile young man.. ; ) does its version of siri; so both coming along nicely if not surpassing siri already.
install iris
install speaktoit
these install links should install direct on your phone(goes straight to android market place via app!)what else ,, well theres bln (for menu light(those actual real lighted buttons on your phone) control that flashes them on when a new email/msg/missed call come in etc but it needs a rooted phone .
Theres also fun apps like onlive for pcgaming on your phone (some games already have touch controls like lego batman, so no need for controller)) !everytrails for gps tracking on the go ,happy android app hunting now! most have free trials too.

whoops there it is..zeus z1 aka psp android 2 phone thingy
Ios 4.2 out find me free
. Finally apple sees sense and stops the 99 $ ripoff that is mobile me. Most people only wanted the find-my-iphone service as it’s a fairly complex phone (not one you want to lose considering all the private info and passwords and access to your life it has within) and really needed this option of remote wipe as standard for free since the iPhones inception.. well better late than never.
The deal is you sign up in via mobileme in your email account section Followed by signing into the MobileMe webpage and voila your position is visible on the googlemap
Its mutant hunting season
Rage mutantbash plays well enough its smooth framerate and eery bgm sure makes you feel you have a slick produced gaming session ahead , at first it seems like a game that could easily be done by a resi evil engine type game – does dip from 60 fps occasionally etc , but the genuine 60fps framerates and heavy mutant laden levels hopefully suggest nothing but next gen iPhone gaming (well until infinity blade is released this holiday)
If you have an iPad or iPhone 4 don’t make the mistake of buying the 59p version the more expensive hd version will give you iPad RES and hi quality textures for 4th gen pods/phones
Cod blackops includes retro graphics
Capcom is one of many companies using in app options as ways for you ,the consumer to consume, beyond the standard game that’s offered for your £59/£1.79 hard earned cash .
Problem is now they are using it as the sole way of playing games in ways which is frankly daylight robbery , take capcoms arcade app for iPhone There are various games to choose from like 1942,ghoulsgoblins and streetfighter2 .
Now as it’s my first go it allows me to play free one game for that day then it stops and asks you to buy tokens, 10 a set for 59 p so that’s ten goes and then I have to buy more just to access the game . Sounds good ?No not really ..in the menus is the option to buy it for 1.79 but thats not obvious at first but really capcom? tokens to purchase just to play per game? I thought you were better company than this ,sad thing is thanks to nostalgia alot of people will pay those tokens for a while till they realise they can actually buy it and even then once that rubs off you’ll notice poor framerates dodgy controls ,(even on an iphone4 ). Which is just unacceptable .
Love the original sf2 arcade sound tracks faithfully reproduced but still don’t think it does my phone/game justice and they need to realise these classics deserve better treatment .After all those game titles got them to where they are today.
ps. also its not very classy having ads for money loans in the app !
