Ive been using PdaNet for the last few weeks, and its now one of my most used apps. I think this might be a verizon/droid thing only. It allows you to tether your phone (use your phone as a access point). I'm using it to post this.

There are a lot of are you allowed to do this or not type questions out there. My friend got it first and had it a while and that settle any reservations i had about getting it. Also i think if you dont use it constantly youll never raise suspicions from your carrier. Also i think with verizon you would get a warning first if they can somehow prove youre tethering. ALSO there is a lot of bs out there about a unlimited, but really limited data plans for verizon. I doubled checked my plan and it definitly has no data limit, maybe new plans do but i doubt it. I think if you stay under 3gb youll be perfectly fine, go over 5gb on a regular basis you MIGHT raise suspicions (imo). Also I use my phone constantly and im average about 1.5gb (verizon mobile app).

One more Also. If you want to test it out but not buy it heres a tip. The free version doesnt allow you to go secure sites (https). But i accidently figured out a little get around. A little thing will pop on on the screen soliciting you to buy the full app. If you click on that you will go to either the paypal or the credit card site (both secure sites), then you can go to other secure sites in different tabs. Also the full version or the get around version works a little faster and keeps that annoying pop up thing from popping up.

Oh yeah something ELSE cool about it. When you get a text message it pops up on your computer screen and you can reply and keep a dialog going right from your computer. Its worth it almost for that feature alone.

ScoreMobile is probably the best sports app ive gotten. It gives you the spread, over under, and game time of each game. Then you can click on the game and it tells you players that are injured and a preview, plus it makes it easy to add to your calander and also email if you want to. Plus after a game it give youa recap of each game and you can go back in a look at game summarys and recaps from earlier in a season. Plus you have team schedules which is really helpful sometime (epically w bball). Awesome app. Its free and definitely worth getting. Everything is covered, even the CFL. You know how sometimes you wish that there was a website that did the same thing as a app you have? This is one of them.

I've got the HTC Incredible with Android 2.2

I really like the Verizon NFL Mobile app... lets you have RedZone on while you watch the skins game on the TV. I also use ESPN sportscenter for everything else, in favor of SportsTap or Sportacular (which I used to use). NHL free app is kinda buggy, but I like it when it works.

I use Skyfire as my browser, the default GMail app for mail (it is so awesome with the latest update), google calendar rocks. Also use pandora, stock music player, facebook app, movies app (with rotten tomatoes it's the best), shazam, weather channel, tapatalk, Wapedia (wikipedia app), and mobile banking apps.

Best app tho, is the calvin and hobbes app..

mlmpetert · 12-23-2010, 10:40 AM

Im messing around w skyfire to see if i like it or if it slows down my phone at all.

Another must have app is TelsaLED if your phone doesnt allready have a flashlight. It turns your phone's camera flash into a flashlight, mine didnt already have this so its pretty sweet. I pretty much have no need what so ever for a real flashlight anymore.

Targeting the Taliban? There's an iPhone App For That - FoxNews.com

^pretty cool. I really hope the military or some govt. agency pays him back, or better yet he makes some money off it if it helps.

I need to check out some of those apps you posted hooskins, didnt see your post until now.

What does she look like naked.

skinsguy · 01-26-2011, 10:15 AM

I think I'm the only man on this earth that actually reverted BACK to a non-smartphone cell phone because of the outrageous cost.

did you mean to post this in this thread?

Or is this an actual app you're referring to?

I have a question for iPhone users. Android has an app, called Shush!, which is great for movies or meetings. The gist is when you turn your phone volume to zero Shush! pops up and asks how long to stay quiet. After that it automatically restores your ringer volume to a predefined level. It's a great app to run in the background.

My sister has an iPhone, and complained how she always forgets to turn the ringer back on, so I told her to get this app, but then when I looked for it in iTunes I couldn't find it. I rarely use iTunes though, so I may just not have looked in the right place.

Does iPhone have a similar setting, function or app?

mredskins · 02-28-2011, 05:29 PM

I just got a Droid 1 bought it used and Verizon set me up on it, everything works expect I can't download apps, when I do so I keep getting a error message from the app store. I have a full 3G signal and phone signal.

I set up a gmail account and everything.

Any thoughts?
