i got mine working, it was annoying.

If you buy taptalk is that a one time 2.99 charge or a monthly charge?

Re: Favorite Apps for your Smartphone
 

it's a one time charge

and an excellent app to view the Warpath on the go.

I literally just caved in and bought tapatalk. I use to browse the forum through the web on my phone, but its much cleaner with this. 3 dollars is worth it considering the amount of time I spend on the warpath.

Yeah it's a good app, well worth the $3 especially if you follow a few forums.

Speaking of tapatalk, do you have issues viewing the super happy fun thread?

yeah, I click on it, then click pages and choose one a few back from the end. If you navigate using the arrows it gave me weird errors.

So why did you change your screen name?

Re: Favorite Apps for your Smartphone
 

I just bit the bullet and bought an Iphone (Verizon). I'm having a hard time d/l'ing apps and stuff though, and I'm not sure if it's the phone or my home network. I'm at home right now, and I d'l'ed Itunes, then hooked my phone up to the comp so I could set up my Itunes account and start d/l'ing apps. I was going through the setup for my phone on Itunes after I got that installed and Itunes started syncing with my phone and it froze my comp (I knew installing Itunes would probably result in that since my comp is a 7 yr old POS that can barely run anyways, but I figured since I had created an Itunes account everything would be fine to d/l apps on my phone. So I'm on my phone now and even though I'm connected to my home network and it says it has plenty of signal, I just tried downloading the FB app and it just said it can't connect to the Itunes store, and this is the second time I've tried d/l'ing an app and it won't work. The first time I was actually able to connect and then I got stuck on my debit card info page, and it asked me for my card number, security code, which i gave, and then it also said an access number was required, and I don't have a clue what that is. So I'm thinking maybe it's because my wireless home network signal is pretty bad, but I don't think it explains why it's taking my Iphone so long initialize and setup this FB app. And I also need to figure out something to make my battery last longer too, I've heard reports that an app killer helps save battery life but then I've also heard conflicting reports that all they do is kill it even more. So I'm not sure what direction to proceed in on that issue either.

Run on paragraphs aside, I found out the problem. It is my home network lol, no more hooking it up to that. I took it to work and everything was cool. Now I'm just trying to figure out solutions to save battery life, since all the apps I d/l'ed yesterday are killing it.

LOL! They should just say everything that makes your phone cool, turn it off.

Or you can just keep a charger at home, in your car, and in the office.

Just turning off push mail and notifications helps. The main drain are the apps, not much you can do about that.

Not sure how Droids compare to iphones but i use my phone all the time and only charge at night. But if im using navigation i usually plug in my car charger, and if im teathering my computer is charging it.

One thing that sucks though is after about 6-8 months our batterys start to suck pretty bad and you need to charge more often...... im just starting to get there with the my current droid.

I have the original droid with the stock battery, and it is really starting to suck now. I have to charge it multiple times a day, especially if I'm listening to music, streaming music or using navigation. I need to buy a new battery.

Yes... I upgraded through costco and got 2 samsung galaxy s phones for 99 bucks the day they came out. It was a very pleasant experience and it saved a ton.

Re: Favorite Apps for your Smartphone
 

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]^Ive always gotten my upgrades through Verizon. Im starting to think the better route would be to buy from retailers....[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]The Galaxy Nexus looks really nice, especially with that curved screen but im officially waiting for the Droid 4 (i really need hard keys) which should hopefully be out any day now. Im really hoping its initially offered through a retailer like Costco or Amazon Mobile and i can save 100 or 1/3 of the price. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I also got a question if anyone knows a bit about android stuff.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]I am against locked bootloaders because they just seem to go against my principles, although ill likely never root or do anything real fancy with my phones so at the end of the day they likely wont impact me much. The thing that drives me nuts though is unremovable bloatware. Ive heard the newer motorola phones are supposed to have a option to remove it (or permanently hide it).[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]So knowing that I probably wont want to try and hack a locked bootloader does anyone know if bootloaders or UI’s ever get updated by the phone company; in this case Motorola? It seems a big selling point for androids are what Android OS the phone is using, the newest being Ice Cream Sandwich which will/is replacing Gingerbread. So if I buy a newer phone like the Razr or the Droid 4 which both run Gingerbread out of the box, but with the promise that it will updated to Ice Cream Sandwich as soon as fully ready, will there be any updates to the Motorola UI when the new OS is ready? Are UI’s tailored to the Android OS theyre sitting on top of? [/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana]Basically should a Galaxy Nexus UI always be (in theory) smoother on Ice Cream Sandwich than a Droid 4 UI that was originally made for Gingerbread, or will the Moto UI update so that its also designed for the new OS? [/FONT][/COLOR]

Bumping an old thread here.

Does anyone know of an app that would record screenshots of your phone and let you basically create a video tutorial (with audio)?

My buddy's business has developed an app and he wants to create a brief video that showcases its features

well both android and iphone now let you take and save screenshots. you could make the video on a regular computer with youtube. I know it can be done, not sure the best software though. I know there are several free ones to create the youtube vids.

Running the iOS 7 beta now and... it's ugly as hell. Huge step backwards imo
