Android :: How To Get Alternative To IPhone 4G?
Sep 21, 2010
Just would like to hear your idea about that...I recently have seen the Samsung Galaxy S and , well, was really impressed about that! Then I have seen the new HTC Desire and heard good rumors about that. So, I was wondering, which one would you take as an alternative to the i Phone 4G? I have seen some price alternatives for Samsung Contract Mobile Phones galaxy s: compare models and prices contract mobile phones galaxy s. - Choppy Doo and HTC Contract Mobile Phones htc desire: compare models and prices contract mobile phones htc desire. - Choppy Doo What would you take if you were in my shoes?

In iPhone, they have got an option of creating such a list which gives them ability to jump to a particular character. see the pic attached

Do we have any such thing in Android?
I can setTextFilterEnabled(true) but that requires the keyboard to be present, while perhaps there now way to implicitly show keyboard on the device as we have in the emulator.
I have tried setFastScrollEnabled(true) it is good, but doesn't let you jump to a particular character.

When a group message is sent between my co-workers, who are all iphone users, and myself (Note 3), one person in the exchange does not receive the text. This is not the common iMessage issue that was plaguing me when I made the switch from Apple to Android. This is specifically affecting one iphone user. When I send her a text individually it is not a problem. The other iPhone users don't have a problem receiving or sending to me.

I'm just getting started with mobile development, and after considerable searching I'm still confused about sending a message from my iPhone to another or an Android.For instance, in building a simple Tic-Tac-Toe game, if I want to notify the other phone of a move, what is the best way to do so? Wifi, bluetooth, 3G? And how? Many methods seem to point to communicating through a web server, but I'd rather send them directly from phone to phone if possible.

My company has blocked access to SMS messages on our phones, yet we have an unlimited data plan. Does anyone know of an alternative program you can use for SMS type messages that you don't get charged for per message?

I just picked up the Motorola Droid, and I'm loving it.I'm trying to find the best free alternative to SMS (because it's ridiculous that after paying $30/mo for 3G access, I have to pay more to move 100-character messages around on the same network...).Ideal would be something like BlackBerry Messenger.So far, I've been using gTalk with my status set to invisible, and that seems to be a pretty good alternative. When I initiate a gTalk conversation with an invisible status, the conversation usually remains short - like an SMS conversation. One downside is that people never initiate conversations on gTalk with me while I'm set to invisible.

I see posts saying that FrameLayout is the alternative, and that I should use margins to position things (this strikes me as wildly counter intuitive, but ok... if it works, I'll take it). However, I can't get it to work, so, I'm looking for assistance. I'm aware of the fact that this may mean different things on different devices. I'm ok with that. I simply need a way to, programatically, and at run time, place an item at a SPECIFIC location. I don't want to rely on gravity (or the laws of thermodynamics). I just want to specify a location and have the element appear there :)

I'm about to get my first Android phone and I'm wondering what your favorite alternative to Locale is? I'm seeing reviews that are less and less favorable and for a $10 app, it out to be darn amazing in my book.

I've just swapped phones from a Nokia N96 to a G1. However the app I used the most on my N96 was HandySafe. Does anyone know of an alternative Android program? (HandySafe is a password protected program which lets you store bank acc, credit card, debit card details etc)

So, I love the idea of controlling itunes via my phone, like apple has. Yet, the tunesremote by jeff sharkey doesn't seem to stay paired with my g1. itunes keeps wanting the pairing code. So, I was wondering if there was an alternative or is that the only one?

One of the alternative app stores is asking for unaltered, unedited capture from the app as a video. Plus I'm also interested in cleaner video than I get by focusing a camcorder on an Android on a table. Who knows how to do that? I think I found some posts that indicate Mark Murphy may have solved this with a tool that goes through DDMS. If so, I'll get that tool and donate.

I have tried using both launcher pro and ADW launcher, who have a reputation of being light launchers, and no matter how much I mess about with the settings, I always experience the same thing:
1: They are often not fluid when swiping screens, showing a little sign of lag or sluggishness that you do not experience with the Sense UI and which drives me crazy.
2: When unlocking the phones, the first swipe is always followed by a noticeable amount of latency.
This bothers me quite a bit, because I really like these launchers and I know of no other way to get the (from my POV) main advantage behind them (the dock).Any advice? I have tried messing about with the memory settings etc to no avail.

I would really like an unlock screen that requires a code (much like the iphone one). I find that the unlock pattern is not as effective due to the fact that the screen smudges, allowing others to see what your pattern is.

I've given Google Listen a go as my podcast app, but it seems buggy and not very intuitive to use. So I'd like to try something different. I'd like sync with Google Reader tho not essential, also need an app that has the option to download over wifi only.

Any recommendations for an alternative app to the stock Gallery application for photo viewing?
Gallery does not allow the user to choose folder (s) to add to gallery which puts lots of un-needed pictures (mainly from downloaded HTML email/email signatures) in the gallery.

I have an HTC Desire, now my wife has a brand new Android phone. What would make her happy would be able to view smileys in a more traditional form rather than the Android-themed ones.
Is it possible to download an alternative set of smileys?

I know there are quite a few alternative Launchers for Android out there, but what I want is to change the UI more then just a bit. I would love to have a "Swipe UI" like the one from the Nokia N9...
I know MIUI but its very Apple like... Any other Costum ROMs (for a Samsung Galaxy Note II) with I could use? Ubuntu has a great UI, but hell yeah, the OS isnt more then just a UI with demo content yet

I was wondering if there is alternative to holding down home button to switch between apps. I was wishing that there is some app that shows all active app and if we click on it, it gets opened. Is there anything like that? Holding down home button only shows recently opened apps. Also, I am not fans of holding down buttons.

Whilst browsing in here and on the web for ways to save battery life, I came across an app for turning on and off WiFi, backlight, bluetooth etc. It had a totally different layout to Quick Settings. The screen appeared to have about 12 square buttons, for quick on/off functionality of the usual stuff. WiFi, bluetooth etc. One of the buttons near the bottom right corner was 2G/3G. Does anyone know which app this may be, from my super description? I like the simple one screen does all layout, which was easy to understand. Can't remember if it was from a link in here, or from another site.
