Hi Vent! Nice to have you here. :)

Tell us about ringmaker. Is it like a ringtone maker or what? Also, I haven't tried Ream launcher. I think I heard of Zeam Launcher. Is it a close cousin? LOL

So far I've only tried LPP, GO Launcher and ADW. I'm always interested in new launchers.

:)

Thanks and glad to be here, sorry I meant to put zeam launcher my bad...lol

I needed somehow to put my tones to my email and text, but when I put them in the notification folder they wouldn't show in the ringtone notification list, only the factory still showed :confused:, so I found ringmaker on market and it would let me pick and cut down the tones or music and then it would let me put them in the notification with the factory ones :D
 
What music player do you have? Are you using the stock? If so I would recommend d/ldg Music Box from the market. It gives you a lot more options.
 
ok i am going to ask a silly question, i would like to change my sound on start up, and from what i am reading i need androotfile....and i can not seem to find it anywhere on the market ....

I Googled androotfile yesterday & d/l ,can't remember the source,though.Let us know if you find & d/l it.I do use a 'search engine' called SCROOGLE,it cuts out a lot of the ads & spam when doing a search,should be able to find it very easily that way,not too far down the results list. :)

I know it's to late now, but it would have been nice to break the apps into categories, texting apps all together, launcher apps all together..etc etc That way its easy for newer people to look through each category and decide of they want to try the winning app for each category. Just saying..

I tried at least four different ringtone maker apps over the weekend and NONE could see any of the MP3 files I downloaded to the phone from my PC. It didn't matter where I put them. About the only option I seem to have is using some software on my PC to edit the MP3 files to the cut that I want, and then using Rings Extended to set them. I'm very disappointed at this juncture, as it seems to me that all of these programs should be able to see your files and use them.
 
Have you checked the format to make sure its mp3?

All 35GB of music on my PC are in MP3 format. I don't download FLAC because it eats too much space, and other formats aren't compatible with everything.

And to EarlyMon, Jazziette has it right, I meant huge as in huge contribution, not huge as in taking up too much space!
 
Advanced task Manager , Android Uninstaller , Boot Animation , Cache Mate , GOTO ,
Lookout ( very nice app , scan and find lost phone and its Free )
PayPal , PowerAmp , Shazam , Titanium Backup , Z4Root
and 2 of my most use App are .............. Drum Roll .............
Andriod Market Duh , and South Park ( Full Version ) for 4 Dollar ,
u can watch all 14 seasons every epic of south park LOL
I like I like Woo Hoo

That's just very odd and must be frustrating. I've seen non-Android phones decide to not list mp3 files when they were over some certain size, but I've not heard of it with our stuff. Yet another mystery.

In other news - I use Aru Ringtones.

It accesses a very big library of mp3 files spanning many genres, and you can set contact and notification rings from within it - so no hopping between mp3 app and People/Contacts. It's just way cool and easy and is known to work on any Android 2.1 and above.
 
Sniper- simple shoooter game. kinda fun
Pulse-News App.. I like how it's organized
Pandora-FREE Radio on Android. Had to pay for it on my Iphone
Photoshop express.. edit and upload pics
VLC Remote--Use my phone as a remote for my VLC player on my laptop.
Google Voice---No longer a shortcut (Iphone)
Mobile Andrio--Mario game for the android
 
My favorites are as follows:

Go Launcher - Dramatically changed my Ascend in terms of speed and appearance.
Smart Keyboard - Excellent keyboard with enough space for my huge thumbs. LOL
Vevo - Free music videos. A must have for music lovers.
Pandora Radio - Another must have for music lovers. Allows you to enjoy music by your favorite artists and other similar artists.

Vevo, Isn't that the one that youtube uses to play the official music videos? Does it run better on the phone than it does on a computer? Through youtube on any of my computers it lags like mad. X.x
 
i have alot of favorite apps but by far my fave fave has to be " TubeMate v1.3 " MUST HAVE YOUTUBE APP, it needs it to run from. pretty much tube mate lets you surf youtube as you normally would. when you click on a video you want to watch, it give you 2 options. 1.) download. 2.) watch. i have over 40 videos on a 2 gig card. had to upgrade to 8gig sd for more video storage. best of all its free. keep in mind it is pointless if you dont have your phone on a wifi connection. ( wifi. pronounced "weehfeeh" ) ( lol ) cant go wrong with free music videos. try using that with your videotonez....
P.S. when it asks you for the video resolution, please choose the 480x becuase anything smaller is pointless and also anything larger is only for tabs or laptops with high res. also if you find a must have song on tube mate, but all it has is crappy slides and no video, it has a nifty MP3 download instead of video, so you can save it as a song and set as ringtone.
P.S.S. there is also a fake you tube downloader. please make sure you DL the correct app. tube mate 1.3. this version asks you for the screen resolution when you select the option to DL and also lets you use the panoramic view when surfing. the fake version does not have panoramic viewing and does not ask you the screen resolution when downloading. the icons look the same and if you have the fake one and dont delete it before you DL the real version. when you delete the fake one it deletes both versions. i had to find out the hard way lol. happy youtube downloading =) dont tinkle yourself in excitement, wear a daiper, also had to find out the hard way ;)
 
woops tube mate is actually version 1.03.07 thats the newest version of the real one.

BC are you with Cricket or MetroPCS? The reason I am asking is cause some folks are having a prob just watching youtubes on their ascends. Do they load fairly fast for you? And does this app you are speaking of help in loading them too? Thanks so much for the tip!!! :)
