Good deal! That sounds like an awesome plan to me!
 
These are the first apps I install each time I put a new ROM on:

Google Voice - Better than Visual Voice Mail
Handcent SMS - Best SMS app
Calendar Pad - Best calendar application. Lets you see text in month view
Beautiful Widgets - Better home clock widget than Sense
Skyfire - Best web browser
Astro - Best File Manger
Bible by Lifechurch.tv - Best Bible reading program with many versions and reading plans
Pandora - Best free music streaming app
Mobile Buzz - Cool news widget (also Gaming Buzz and Sports Buz)
Engadget - Best tech news site and app
XDA - Great app for browsing XDA Forums
Favorite Games: Speedx 3D, Bonsia Blast, Blow Up, Space Physics, Flight Director, Gem Miner, AirAttack and Papa Stacker.

Two thumbs up for Calendar Pad. I really like this. I just got rid of Calwidget (which i like too). I like the 4 x 4 week view, and with one tap, the month opens quickly.

I'm becoming OCD about tweaking this thing :eek: I don't think I'll ever be able to just sit back and not change something.
 
So OTD posted the Easy Money financial app, is there anybody else using something to track finances? Just like to weigh my options. Interested in free (keeping with OP), but if it's 30 day trial/paid like Easy Money, that would be fine if it's worth the funds. TIA

i cant find hide n seek on the 2.1v3 market place doseany one know whats go on wit that i went to the devloper site and still nothing and i serched by his name and everything
 
Are there any good apps for downloading video from the web. My friend says he has an app on his iPhone that lets him download all kinds of video. He gets movies and everything. Are there any apps that let me find and download video all in one place? I'm not really interested in converting them and then adding them to the SD.

I keep getting Download unsuccessful



It's later:rolleyes:

I haven't got that app to work since the first time I used it. Now I just go through the browser to go to YouTube. Any tips for that?

And I was thinking more along the lines of actual video files. Like the ones you would find in torrents. I want to be able to find movies and maybe TV shows. If anyone has any good links just PM them to me if they aren't allowed on this forum.
 
I must have google voice. I put in a request a while ago and haven't heard from them in months. I was looking for a specific thread to request an invite but nothing was there. I would appreciate a reply or PM from anyone that could send me an invite. I got tons of international calls that would be made infinitely cheaper. Thanks.

if you are on 2.1 the youtube app works just fine.
might be tie to start thinking about rooting.

and there is a torrent client for android but it doesnt work that great, might give it a shot again though now that im overclocked :)

aBTC is what its called.
2shared - download org.ale.abtc.v1.9.apk
 
I was interested in rooting from the start but I didn't really see much of a need for it. I tried to look for some pros and cons and it got a little messy for my noob head. I still would need to make a back up of all my apps and stuff. Can you simplify what is best about rooting?

1. complete backups of your phone. even down to the texts and emails that you had at the time, settings also intact. backs up every little detail, even apps that you no longer have installed.

2. custom roms. great for personalization.

3. cool apps like a one touch cache cleaner, screen capture app etc.

4. on evil eris2 overclocking is now supported so you can speed your phone up.

5. also on evil eris2 you can install apps to your sd card freeing up a lot of phone memory
