What WE Still Need In Android Thread...

[bobgaron]

There is a bunch of things, but my top needs are:

1. Facebook official app or app that does all that the Blackberry version does and then some.

2. "Mark All As Read" feature in the SMS Messaging app

3. Multiple select of messages and emails

4. Copy and paste in emails


Chime in peeps...

P.S. If anyone has a fix, solution, or app that takes these issues away please steer me/us to it. Thanks!

Bluetooth Obex protocol in ALL devices, including unrooted ones!

Better conversation threading in gmail that allows both inline responses and ability to even see older messages in the reply emails. More like regular email.

 

[CodeMonkey]

Decent Voice dial (with bluetooth headset control).

ie.
Push button on headset.
Phone waits for prompt.
Speak name.
Phone calls (correct ) person

Between Bloo and Babbler, I think they've got your bases covered, but i'm not sure what the "Blackberry version" can do. Facebook put their nose in the air when Android came out last year, I believe they've changed their minds since then.

Pigs Fly As Facebook And Google Work Together On An Android App

Is the official Facebook app coming to Android today?|Android and Me

. "Mark All As Read" feature in the SMS Messaging app

don't know about this one.

. Multiple select of messages and emails

If you mean gmail, it's already there, came along just before, or with Cupcake, don't remember now. If you go into gmail, hit the menu button, tap settings, and make sure "batch operations" has a check mark. I don't think there's something like this for messages.

4. Copy and paste in emails
