View 1 RepliesI thought it might be useful to create a thread to suggest apps in. The nature of the forums will determine if this is a good idea or not by whether it gets stickied or buried. I'm new to Android and we're all new to the Captivate (sans Galaxy S owners). I suggest that we keep to 4 simple posting guidelines to make this thread as useful as possible. You can add material, but give us these as a minimum guideline. If you can, update your post if your experience changes after you post. 1. 1 app per post. The idea is to give a single post that gives at least a basic review of a given app. Not a 10 thread "discussion". just a single post. Please dont repeat app reviews. We can start a thread for individual apps. 2. Please only review apps you have personally installed and used a bit. Not "some guy you know", not "this friend of mine", not even "I knew this alien once who...". Personal experience, with the app, on this phone only. 3. Please avoid commenting on other posts. By definition, this isnt a "right or wrong" thread and if the posting rules are followed, at least 1 person had those actual, literal results. 4. If you can give a very brief description of what type of user you are (heavy, lite, etc) and what kind of environment you're in most of the time (Inside office, driving, etc), this will help others adjust your experiences based on their environment and usage.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy intention is to create a spam-free thread containing all sort of applications that are useful (or not ) for our lovely phone , I'll try to organize this head post to contain all the apps you post here, So, you should post this 4 topics: Name: <name of the application>Category: <game, util, etc...>Location: (optional) <URl for example, or the QR Code>Brief Description. And I'll say it again, please, no answers like "no application to make coffee?" or "I can't find it? I even looked under my bed!"

View 49 Replies View RelatedHow can I implement a run() method of thread if I create a Thread Global?
I mean If I create a Thread Globally then can I implement its run() method {" public void run()"} anywhere in my Application?
In the run() method I have to write the code to perform some action.
IF I can do it then please can anyone show me briefly how to do it particularly.
I am writing an application in which i need to handle messages between the main thread(the deafult UI related thread) and the user created Gamethread.
The requirement is like this.
An activity(say "Activity_X") is setting the view by "setContentView(some "View_Y")". In "Activity_X" i have implemeted "onCreateOptionsMenu()" and "onOptionsItemSelected()" fucntions for creating menus & a switch case for action to be taken on selecting those menus.Menu has items like "resume/pause/zoom/" .
All action to be take on selecting these menus are implemented in "View_Y" in a separate Gamethread by extending "Thread" class.
So whenever a menu is selected in "Activity_X" i need to send a message to "View_Y". And on receiving this ,a particular action/method should be called in View_Y(GameThread).
How can i achieve this using Handlers?Is there any other way of doing this? Please do share with me some code snippets for these.
Does anyone know how to delete certain texts from a thread in an easy manner instead of having to delete a whole thread??
View 7 Replies View RelatedA mod deleted my thread titled: 'Another POLL ... WHY do you want Froyo? Can you PM me please and let me know why it was deleted? I had very specific reasoning for posting that, even if many thought it might have been redundant. I wanted to post a poll to get a rough idea out of all of the posters aching for Froyo, who wanted it for bug fixes, and who wanted it for other reasons such as new features, etc. That is a specific purpose, and is not redundant. If you'd be so kind, please let me know what i did wrong. I was really looking forward to the results of that poll.

This is my first pic and did not play with the settings so it was default. Lets get the most out of our 8mp camera's. I know everyone says point and shoot is better but no reason not to get the best from the hardware we have on us at all times.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Android having just come from Blackberry [loving the change, btw]. However the only thing I am missing. Is there any way within SMS Text Messages you can delete previous parts of the conversation? I see that it saves all my conversation with a person so I have todays conversation and yesterdays too. However, I want to delete all of yesterdays text messages but still keep the conversation thread I'm having currently. Does this make sense? It was something I liked with my old phone- the "delete previous" option. Is there something like this on the HTC Incredible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am having an issue while typing texts in the stock messaging app...
While I am in the middle of typing texts, sometimes my phone will jump to the first message in the thread I am currently viewing (i.e. I am typing a response text to John Doe). I then have to scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll back to the bottom of the thread where my response box is. Then I tap the box and continue typing...
Is this happening to ANYONE else? Am I hitting something that is making the view jump to the top like that? I don't understand.
Thinking I could probably download a third party app for texting and avoid the problem, but I like the default app. I shouldn't HAVE to use another app. The stock one SHOULD just work...
Other forums have a thread dedicated to PSX4Droid and how well the app along with the roms work on their respected phone.
This thread is not so much a "How to" but a "What works"
For those just getting started and need to learn how to set up PSX4Droid take a look at a few of the videos on YouTube to help get going.
Now for anyone who has PSX4Droid on the Incredible could you please post what roms/games you have tried and how well they work on the system.
This will help people from putting a certain amount of hours of playtime into a title only to find there is a section they won't be able to advance from.
Games I have tried so far:
Dino Crisis: This one starts off fine but about 30 minutes into playing there is a door you have to go through and the new section won't load basically ending the game.
Dino Crisis 2: Runs fine for the first 5-10 minutes but afraid of the same problems coming up from Dino Crysis 1.
Resident Evil: Only played for 30 minutes but runs fins, also has sound issues.
Resident Evil 2: Played for 1 hour and runs GREAT, has some sound problems.
Resident Evil 3: Same as RE2, played for 1 hour game runs great but has some sound issues.
Diablo: This is a tricky one. Game starts and plays fine in the first town but after talking to everyone there is and entering the church the performance drops off. Now I have restarted this one and took my character directly into the church bypassing talking or doing anything in town and didn't have a problem so this might have a memory issue.
So far from the limited titles I played the RE series works out the best. It should be noted that every game I tried out has some sound issues you just have to live with for now.
Is there an official thread or forum for the android where you can request apps to be made? basically you suggest an app to be made then others can vote if its as good idea and if enough people like it someone will make it and put it in the market?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to see a thread for my own sake and others on what apps people have removed and what is safe.In order to remove an app use these directions.Footprints: (I had to do a Nandroid backup after removing this becauuse maps would not load in navigation) some online have reported the same problem while others here said it worked for them) JUST BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP FIRST.Another app to watch for is Friendstream as people have reported problems with constant sync issues.(Also just a question when removing apps do you need to run the same command line ending with .odex?)

View 4 Replies View RelatedOk, so I have been seeing a bunch of requests for black and red icon packs. Since we have a wallpaper thread, why not an icon thread? For any colors, shapes, whatever. Post your icons, or a link you your favorite icon pack be it on deviant art or an app in the market or anywhere else.
Here are some apps that will allow you to change icons. If you PM me or post others here, I will try to keep up and add them.
BetterCut allows you to change icons LauncherPro allows changing icons on its dock
There are numerous apps out there like Fake Chrome that will change one specific icon for a specific program.
