The Official Android Thread

[vikes_28]

This is for all users of Android. This is for discussing what apps are cool to download, accessories, rooting, and all sorts of things.

Apps that I have enjoyed:

Gameboid (GBA emulator) $3.99
GBcoid (GBC emulator) $3.49
Angry Birds
Air Control Lite
Advanced Task Killer
Rom Gripper
Dolphin Browser HD
DroidLight
Facebook (of course)
GasBuddy
NFL Mobile (for verizon users)
Talking Tom Cat Free
Traffic Rush
WordWise Free

In terms of rooting, I haven't done any of that yet. Apparently it voids your 1 year warrenty with the the phone maker if you do. I'll probably end up doing it after a year so I can get the mobile hotspot for free.

If you want me to explain any of the apps, reply or send me a PM. :D

PS, I made this thread from my droid :)

I have a Droid, but I don't use it to it's full capacity. It's just a phone and texting device that I sometimes use the internet with.

Why buy it if you're not going to use it for what it's meant for? Doesn't make much sense to me. You could buy a touchtone phone and get cheaper service.

I got a really good deal on it. Plus I figured that is the way all phones are going to be headed someday, might as well jump aboard early.

Plus if I ever do need anything it has, I know I'll have it. I've tried the GPS feature it has....it's just as good as any actual GPS you could buy I think.

I just got the Samsung Fascinate... I love this phone! My previous venture into the smart phone market was a BlackBerry and the Droid Eris.

While my BlackBerry was a great solid phone it just wasn't as user friendly as an android phone. My Eris was given to me by a friend and it was great just way way to slow.

Some of the Apps i use on mine are:
-Facebook
-Bos Baseball (Red Sox news source)
-Trillian (All in one instant messaging service)
-Wireless tether
- Set Cpu
- ESPN score center
- and i use an Agenda widget to sync with my GMail calendar.

FaceBook
Yahoo Fantasy Football
Patriots News
Angry Birds (Game)

Pandora
Task Manager (Battery life isn't anything to brag about)

Android is the **** sir. Get yourself ROM gripper and GBCoid lite to start so you can play any GB game you want for free. Always Angry Birds is pimp.
