I currently have a personal (HTC Touch Pro) and business phone (iPhone). With Sprint now offering unlimited any-mobile (freeing up 1300+ minutes a month on my family plan) and Google Voice allowing me to get a separate business number, I'm thinking about dropping my iPhone, and replacing the HTC with either a BlackBerry Tour or a Hero. I work in project management; I know that the BB does have applications that would be useful to me (as does the iPhone), but I can't find comparable apps for Android. As a personal phone though, I would rather have the Hero. Given that I've only been able to spend a limited amount of time browsing the Android Market in a Sprint store, I was hoping someone here might know of some good replacements for my "must have" apps.
1) PIM / Task management. I have a lot of tasks, meetings, and deadlines to manage. I need something similar to the functionality provided by Outlook. I currently use Pocket Informant on the iPhone, which allows me to view multiple calandars, see my schedule from the month-level view, and integrate my to-do lists. I can also assign calander events and to-do tasks to projects, give them priority, provide extra notes, add multiple reminders, etc.. I could probably live with the Android's calander, but I definately need a good to-do app.
2) Time tracking. I have an app on the iPhone (TimeLogger) that lets me track how much time I spend on projects for clients. The one I currently use allows me to start a timer and then come back later to stop it, which is helpful but not a must.
3) Personal finance manager. I track all of my purchases, have several accounts / cards, and need to be able to track/filter business vs personal purchases.
How To Transfer TEXT MESSAGES from WP8.1 devices to Android Devices ??And also the contacts!!

View 6 Replies View RelatedI own a LG G2 D802 and I have SlimKat 2.4 installed.
Often important applications like Nova Launcher, LMT or Firefox will be closed and have to reload. I think it is caused by the RAM management but every time I look at it more than 500mb are free so how could I improve this behaviour?
I recently flashed my HD2 with a Cyanogen based ROM - Hyperdroid - which I recommend whole heartedly. Before that I had a Sense based one which I did not like that much..
However, laggy and clunky as it was it did have something : an app to migrate contacts and sms from previous phones and a nice contact aggregator (not sure if I can call it that) that paired facebook contacts with phone contacts.
i am running CM11, a friend used to be, and we used WhisperPush to send encrypted SMS. He got the M8, now is not running cyanogen mod, and therefore does not get the messages i send to him b/c he cannot receive WhisperPush messages. If I unregister my device from WhisperPush he can receive them. His old phone with CM also does not boot anymore.
There does not seem to be an option to delete his identity key from my phone. How I can do that?
Is there any way I can make my android behave like iphone does with apps and processes when I'm noy using them?On ios 6 and previous (in ios7 it is optional) background app processing is disabled, so battery when not using the phone isn't almost wasted.I don't really need that full multitasking android provides, but I do need better battery life.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI read that CM10 does not have the feature that made CM7 really stand above all other roms. App permissions management. If this is true, I'd like to know why such a terrific feature was not brought over to the newer versions. I really liked that I could take away the ability for apps to "automatically start at boot."
Is there something built in to ICS / JB that negates the need for this feature to be in CyanogenMod?
I have flashed it several times until i got the ROM i needed, but in one of the wipes i did (cache, dalvik, internal storage, accidentaly deleted the backup too), i came across that is not detecting my SIM card, the usual SIM Management app is not active and i dont know how to configure it. Its like it detects the SIM is there (because it doesnt show the empty slot alert) but it doesnt give me the option to use that network.
I've read about it could be a IMEI problem but i also modded those to the default ones found on my phone, and its still not working, or should i mod them to the SIM IMEI?
It is possible to backport the ram management from kitkat 4.4 to jelly bean 4.3? I don't know maybe in some kind of script? Or the ram management in KitKat is more complex than in jelly bean?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using a Sony Xperia Z1 phone running Android 4.3, and a Nexus 7 tablet running 4.4.1. Having no success at syncing photos between the two devices using Google Photo App which is part of Google + on both devices. All my photos taken on both devices are unploaded to google drive and google plus.
When I delete or edit photos, the changes sometimes show up on other device and sometimes they don't. When I create albums, sometimes I can view on the other device, and sometimes I can't. Auto awesome videos often don't show up on the other device too.
It's just a huge mess and thinking of deleting google plus entirely and just using third party photo management app. How to get google plus photos to sync seamlessly.
I am developing my am on mac (10.5.8), on eclipse and SDK 1.6 and a Vodafone HTC Magic Everything was working ok up to a few days ago. I can not see my device on adb devices. I also got a Sony Xperia and I can not see it on the list either. I upgraded the phone software (the HTC) to 1.6 a few days ago. Maybe that is what caused the change, but I could not be sure.

On the android platform it will be easy to do this as an application. However I want to pass this data to the kernel..how to achieve that? a user space daemon polling the above sensors constantly(then agian how to write to the kernel space..), or can I get these values in the kernel space itself? (ex- as a bite stream from the device driver).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android, having just received my shiny new HTC Hero. So far, I love the phone and Android. But, I have a quick question; I don't use DHCP on my wireless setup at home, which is fine, as I can obviously set a static IP for the wireless, but, I would also like to connect to wi-fi in the office, where I'd need the phone to pick up IP details from DHCP. Is there an app that lets you configure wi-fi settings so that it will use the static IP address when connected to my home network and DHCP when connected at work? I know I can just turn off the static IP when in the office, but that's a bit of a pain. I can't just turn on DHCP at home either as I have a slightly unusual setup, where the wireless access point is behind a broadband router, and it doesn't allow me to specify a default gateway within it's DHCP options, so, whilst a wireless device can connect to the wireless network with DHCP, it has no way of routing to the internet without having a static gateway specified.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently switched from an Iphone to a nexus one. I am getting used to android and loving a lot of the features. My first complaint with android was no real sync software but I found doubletwist and while its not perfect it does a pretty good job. My second gripe is that media is split between the music player and the gallery. I miss how the iphone had photos for all of your photos and video you took on the phone and then the ipod app for all of your music and movies. Is there an app out there to organize all of my media and showcase it in a better manner? If I had that then I would be set with my phone.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLooking for an app that manages applications a little better than the stock option..
More specifically.. I want to see for sure what apps are running on the phone, what apps are running on SD, etc.
Stock management shows whats on SD, but not whats on phone, unless I'm missing something.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two android devices at home, a HTC One S and a Nexus 7(2012). The problem is that when I am using one or another occasionally the wi-fi will simply stop working. I'm still getting full signal in the notification bar, but either Chrome or whatever app that is using the wi-fi will stop retrieving data and eventually time-out or stay on buffering.
I have tried some things including changing the channel my wi-fi is set to from Auto to 6 and Mixed B/N/G mode to N only, but nothing seems to fix this problem except for one thing; turning the wi-fi off on one of these devices. The connections seem perfectly stable when I do this.
I also have a laptop in the house, my girlfriend comes over with her iphone, and I have an ipad from work that I occasionally bring home (I'm a teacher) and none of these devices ever have any issues, it's only the two android devices.
It's almost as it they are sharing the same wi-fi train track and only one can ride it at a time.
I have purchased 3 Samsung Galaxy Nexus devices for my family, and one for myself. I wanted to setup all our devices for them and pre-install essential apps for them, and lay it out in a way which makes each device identical so that my family (which is new to Android) can all get the same easy experience from their devices, rather than everyone getting a different LG/Samsung/HTC device and having to deal with differences in skins every time someone phones me with a question about their device.
Here is what I have done:
1. Unlocked bootloader, root, installed CM10.1.2 + gapps onto my own personal device. Clean install, wiped everything.
2. Setup android with a temporary Gmail account, installed about 20 apps, setup the homescreen, changed a few settings for simplicity, change wallpapers, etc.
3. Once I was satisfied, I removed the google account, rebooted to recovery (CWM 6.0.3.2) and made a Nandroid backup which was later copied to my home server.
4. Unlocked Bootloader, rooted and installed CM10.1.2 + gapps on all the other devices, booted the device then transferred the Nandroid backup from my home server to each of these other three devices. Restore the backup, reboot, all seems fine so I setup new individual google accounts, and away I went. Everything works fine, at least so it seems.
Now the issue is that I'm having came a day or two after I got everything setup on each device. At the moment I'm having serious issues with the Google Play Store and Push Notifications. Almost all devices intermittently have issues with this. The play store issue I'm getting is [RPC:S-5:AEC-0], and prevents me from downloading or updating apps. Push notifications is not working either. For example, Google hangouts notifications don't notify me of messages on devices intermittently unless I manually check the app. Same goes with facebook and snapchat notifications. Very annoying. Tried all sorts of fixes such as removing the Google account, rebooting and adding it again, but no luck.
I changed the Android ID on each device hoping that would work, but still no luck.
Edit: Tried making a titanium backup of one device and moved it to a rooted Galaxy S2 running CM10.1 nightlies, and no such issue. Also, updated one nexus device to the latest nightly, still no fix.
I'm lookin for an app to remote controll android devices from each other, like teamviewer for pc!
Lot's of my friends have problems with their phones sometimes and keep asking me, how can i do this or that and how does stuff work....
So I am looking for a app witch works like Teamviewer, so i can see there screens and just do it for them via remote I thougt I've seen something in the xda portal someday but don't remember a name....
Any app to do that? It should work without root and easy like teamviewer (at least for the host)......
This only happens when the screen is off! Galaxy Mini, GS4 and now my HTC One m8...
Music will skip or cut out for 0.1 sec or do every now and then, no matter of it's through headphones or Bluetooth speakers. I haven't had this issue on my m8 much and power amp seems not to have this issue at all. But I'm using Apollo currently.
I've seen this behaviour on other android devices as well, but never on Apple or Nokia phones.
I know there is a lot out there regarding ways to print from android devices (Cloud Print, HP reprint, etc), but I am running into a slightly different problem, and I am sure I am not alone.
Fairly often, I am on a webpage, and after completing an order form or something, I end up with a secure (HTTPS) confirmation page. Unless I thought about it ahead of time and used the cloud print web browser, the is absolutely no way to print these forms. Sharing the page to cloud print will only take me back to the login page since the confirmation page was secure.
I can't be the only one needing this functionality... the frustrating thing is that my wife can even do this on her iPad with ePrint. And with surface, web pages can be converted to PDF right in Internet Explorer for printing later. Android seems to be the only platform with this huge limitation.
I really don't want to have to return my Nexus 10 and get a Surface, buy it may have to be a consideration.......
I have an android phone Jelly Bean 4.1.2
I already installed the drivers of my phone to my computer, when i plugged the cable i enable USB DEBUGGING.

I tried everything. I also try kill-server and start-server still the same.

View 9 Replies View RelatedRecently I bought a wifi range extender (TP-Link tl-wa730re first version) and I configured it in order to extend (range extender mode) wifi signal of my router over some rooms of my house. In particular I use this extender to take the signal into a room in which I already get router signal, but it's too low to have a fast connection.
So in this room I have 2 signal (I used this app to analyze my conditions Play Store Link): the router one, with 20-30%, and the repeater one, with 70 %. I haven't any problem with my pc, but I have the same issue with my android devices (galaxy nexus, 2 nexus 7, htc sensation, xperia u): they randomly disconnect themselves for just a couple of seconds and then they switch between the 2 signals
Moreover about every 10 hours, I must reboot the extender, or every android device stops to get a working connection. For example, my gnex lost connection and continuously tries to connect to router, but it always fail.
If I move from this room to another one (especially if in this room router signal is stronger than before) my devices lost connection and I have to reboot phone or tab to get connection back...
My router has a WPA-PSK TKIP-AES password, dhcp enabled, automatic channel search enabled (the usual channel is always free), and wifi bg with a speed up to 125 mbps. My extender has no password configured, dhcp disabled, same channel of router and its extended wifi has been seen by every android as the same of router (only 1 signal is detected into settings).
I already tried to set a static IP from wifi settings on phones but nothing change..
