I've yet to get an Andriod phone, looking to get the Hero when it drops next month @ Sprint. I was wondering how the applications currently available for the Andriod phones compare to iPhones applications? I really love the iPhone and it's apps but wouldn't go to AT&T for it and want to know if I'm going to be disappointed with the Apps for Andriod once I get the Hero after seeing what the iPhone has to offer.

I am about to embark on developing a mobile application for both the iPhone and the Android based phone.I have most of my gui mock ups written down on a white board and some in my head. I need to put them down on paper so I can relay my designs to others in my team.I was wondering what the best on-line gui mockup tool I could use? I have a lot of experience with Visio and I truly like it. I want a tool that would be web based so I could collaborate with others on the team. Does anyone have a suggestion for an easy gui mockup tool that I could use?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat i like about nokia is the pc suite(the older version) it syncs automatically with bluetooth. (files, pictures etc) and can read sms messages.
What ive read so far, theres no alternative on android?
Bluetooth handsfree- The current n82 connects fine to the car stereo,- and can accpets calls etc.
This seems to be a problem on android,-dependent on phone and android version. Is this correct?
Regarding programs, i have a call manager with whitelack lists, answering machine and scheduler. And a program that can record conersations.
Are there any android programs that can do the same thing?

View 13 Replies View RelatedIs there a better way to view available apps than the market? I spent hours trying to go through all the available apps. Finally I got connection error, before it reached the end. There is a wiki app and the T-mobile minutes app I want and I could not find them. There has to be a better way to find and download apps. Is there a t-mobilde or google web site that has a list of the apps available? Also the search does not work, I tried "wiki" and got a few hits, but there were many apps with wiki in title it did not find.

View 3 Replies View RelatedBrand new to droid land, and was wondering.yesterday I got a droid 2. from playing with it all day, at the end of the day, it seemed overly sluggish. so, I was wondering ,when I am in an application like the browser, to exit it, I just tap the hooked arrow key on the phone, guess it's like a back button. anyhow, I just tap that until I get back to the home screen. so, if I do that for every application I run, does that mean at the days end, I've got however many apps running in the background?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android, and it kind of frustrates me that there's no "advanced search" option in the app marketplace. If I want to search for "keyboard", for example, I have to search through an assload of skins to find an actual program. Same when I tried to search for Open Home--again, an assload of skins. Am I missing something, or is there a better way to search/sort searches rather than having to sort through, for example, the 464 results for Open Home?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI just found out from mobile Defense that the Android OS will not let this app or any of these type apps work as intended, i.e. the OS does not allow the GPS or Data or WiFi to be turned on remotely if off. Kind of kills the whole idea of having these apps, anyone know of a non root work around as the cellular south HTC Hero cannot be rooted without major issues?
View 16 Replies View RelatedI've recently Hard Reset (factory reset) my HTC Evo after backing up Applications using File Explorer App. Now, that these applications were restored from the backup, I can't see them in Market Download and therefore I don't receive any updates for them. Per say, I've Smart Keyboard Pro, and I know there's new updated version out but unless I buy the App again, I won't get it. How do you get updates on Applications like these and other?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI did a few searches but couldn't find anything specific to what I'm talking about. My wife and I both got Droids the other day and love them. We are enjoying finding apps and all that stuff, but one thing I haven't been able to figure out is how we can share applications between us. Granted I dont want to illegally share apps with random people and friends, just between my wife. Not big into paying for 1 app 2 times so that we can share an experience. We both have ipod touch's, and we have always been able to share the apps with that by my 'authorizing' her ipod to match mine. She still has her email and all that, just we share a purchasing account. I imagine there is a backdoor way to copy apps and api's, but i dont want to get into that. I used to have a custom rom winmo and part of the appeal of the droid was it would do everything i want without having to crack it. I heard google was thinking about app sharing, and app2sd is in official development, but is there anything I can do now?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using the HTC Magic with the updated HTC Sense UI for about 6 months now.Recently, whenever I use an app after a few minutes it will just close. The behaviour is erratic and does not always happen but sometimes it will just close. It doesn't give the message that it has crashed but it just quits completely. This happens to built-in apps like the Market and Gmail.Nothing has really changed although I have installed/uninstalled a couple of apps. Nothing that should affect this though.
View 16 Replies View RelatedThis is not specifically related to the Gtalk app, but it is while using the Gtalk app that it occurs. As you may or may not know, UK users of Googlemail have recently been able to switch to a Gmail account. I did this and it caused problems with signing into Gtalk (even though there were no problems signing into Gmail via the Gmail app). I've since followed some advice found elsewhere to go into Gmail, then Settings, then Accounts and Import and to change my address back to @googlemail.com. Doing this has allowed me to sign in to the Gtalk app, and I can see my friends on the friends list but I can't send messages. I always get the message "This message couldn't be sent". Any ideas how to fix this one error in the Gtalk app?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI thought of a question today which I would like to put out there to see what people do / think. When I see a free application which I like and use if an Advertisement comes up which even vaguely interests me I will normally click on it. This I guess is my way of saying thanks to the dev for not only making the app but for keep it free. Who here uses the Ad's in apps? Do you do it because you know it will help the dev out or just because you where interested in the product the Ad was pitching?
View 30 Replies View RelatedI hate to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I'm wondering why so many apps are free. Take for example, PandaHome. I installed it and really love using it. But in the back of my mind I'm wondering why this product is free. Part of my concern is PandaHome has access to many key parts of my Android phone, like contacts, etc. Is it somehow tracking / using my data or my use of the phone for some other marketing purposes? They say there's no such thing as a free lunch, so there's got to be a catch somewhere? Why are so many great apps free?
