what is the droid missing

[Crazy_J]

Out off all the apps and games what would youfeel is missing? We have all heard "Droid Does" what doesn't it do, that you that you would like it to do. What games would you like to have, what apps are missing? What software is missing?

 

[colnago]

Stronger radio/bigger antenna.

More robust SIP client.

...for me anyway.

 

[magnus]

a decent camera

 

[ccousinsjr]

Zippo lighter app. Every iPhone in the country has it.

 

[gwlaw99]

Better games

 

[aztechmaster]

Better email. Yes I came from the Blackberry world.....the email is simply the best.

 

[BBtoDroid]

1) Email equal to or better than BB
2) FLASH Support
3) Ability to have home screen in landscape WITHOUT using keyboard (pet peeve)
4) Streaming TV (What happened to the V Cast?)
5) Better battery life
6) Better browser (Firefox?)
7) More system memory (4 GB onboard for more apps)
8) More apps

Personally, I just want more general snappiness all around. Like how the home screens always lag. I don't want to install a home replacement or have to root to get that. Yes, I'm rooted and have BBeast, but a quick home screen should be a stock feature.

A flickr app, or something that lets me upload video from the phone.


And, I mean a GOOD flickr app

 

[Athos]

A Sirius app.

I transplanted from Blackberry just before their Sirius App came out... which I had been waiting to come out for a while. Now the wait continues.

 

[colnago]

4) Streaming TV (What happened to the V Cast?)

Your best option, coming in March:

email for me is fine since my domain in hosted by google I get all their gmail services on my domaini I have no complain about emails. For me the only thing I would like to have on my droid is sinse ui, even knowing that sense ui is an HTC UI I would love to have it on my Droid.

Better app Devs. Seriously, the iPhone's apps are unmatched and you can't even say otherwise. Like today, I just bought a game on my iPod Touch called Angry Birds, and like always, the interface is top-noctch, everything is colorful and vibrant, smooth, purdy, and the game itself is amazing! Yeah they stole the concept, but it's done so much better. I just wish we could have games like this. I see the games people get excited over on Android and they look like **** and play not much better.

A better camera, the camcorder works wonderfully, but the camera is terrible.

Optimization, I feel that our Graphics chip is going to waste, cause everything is not snappy, not even as snappy on a damn Droid Eris.

1) FM radio reception
2) FLASH Support
3) Better battery life
4) More system memory...(I am almost at my memory limit and have had to delete several apps)
5) Streaming TV

 

[Nicks88]

2.1

 

[Barkleyfan]

FM radio would be nice. I can stream, but when I'm at the gym doing redundant cardio, it would be nice to be able to sync up with the TV's so I can hear what's on.

As far as software, a good music app with equalizer would be nice. Something along the lines of Nitrogen player for WinMo. And while google sync is ok, My Phone from Microsoft is just plain more robust with features and UI.

Last complaint is battery capacity. The Seidio 2600 is an option, but it's a big, UGLY option. Thankfully, 1.2 ghz doesn't hit the battery too much harder than stock 550 mhz does. Stock should have been at least 16-1700 miliamp. It's like having a 5 gallon gas tank in a Porsche 911.

 

[Hegemony]

Better games

Have you played ExZeus?

 

[BucYouUp68]

The iPhone comments, really need to stop. If you want an iPhone, go get one. This is Android 2.0, and has been out for how long? And how long has the iPhone been out. Give it a Rest already, give it time.

 

[xmr405o]

Droid doesn't do TV-out. It's a shame because I think the video recording on the droid is pretty awesome. I wish I could connect it to my LCD TV.

I'm sorry but it doesn't take "time" to make apps look presentable, that's all on the amount of effort the devs are willing to put into these apps. So get off the bandwagon and realize that we have so much more potential and yet it isn't utilized because the process of putting your app on the market is a joke (which can be a blessing and a curse at the same time

 

[Neverendingxsin]

3) Ability to have home screen in landscape WITHOUT using keyboard (pet peeve)
6) Better browser (Firefox?)

3) for me im able to have the home screen in landscape without using the keyboard.
6) Dolphin browser is pretty sweet

there is a lighter app, called iLightr. Droid does.

 

[radikal]

i have no major qualms, the phone is a phone and its doing great at that, more than the iphone can ask for!

more apps are coming daily, i love it!

we are getting 2.1, the camera really can't be fixed much so yeah, i guess a camera that takes in dim light would be good. but not super important

picup is a great flickr/facebook/twitpic etc app, it does them all and it uploads nicely!

 

[messenger13]

We need a "Patience App" that gets installed on every Droid OTA. That way, these threads would all disappear. Other than the camara issue (sorry folks, but mine takes good pics), there isn't an issue on this list that time won't fix.

And like it's been stated, the iPhone has been out for how long? I'm sure their forums had these threads a few years back. Or did they? iPhone owners seems to be more grateful than Droid owners, from my experience.

 

[SteveC]

I have no complaints with my camera either. But having said that I think it works better with Camera Zoom FX.

I would really like to see a direct voice command dial by tapping your ear peice and telling it to dial...
