What app do you use? (Help) - EVO 4G Themes and Apps

I've had my EVO for 2 days now, switching over from Windows Mobile, so I'm a noob with it at this point. I need help with acquiring some apps that I need to get. I've searched the forums but no luck :/ I used to have my Touch Pro 2 hooked up with these apps and now want to do the same for my EVO I would greatly appreciate it if you guys can share. He we go:
1.)Screen shot capture app
2.)Call recording app
3.)Schedule sms/mms messages
4.)WiFi router app
5.)MS Office (if possilble, not sure)
6.)Wi-Fi Remote Access
If anybody has these apps or knows a link to these apps I would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks guys!

1.) SDK tools (not an app: It's a PC/Mac program)
2.) Dunno
3.) Dunno
4.) There's a non-Market Wifi-tether app. listed on this forum (best non-market apps thread). Works great, but you'll need to root your phone (I'm newer, and rooted my phone in 30 minutes using the "for noobs" tutorial)
5.) Dunno
6.) Dunno

01.) Shoot Me seems to be the most popular. *(Although you must be rooted)*
02.) There are one or two threads ( i think over in the Q&A Section ) but it seems like most of the suggestion are just to search the Market for "call recording" after also getting a few suggestion to the legality of recording calls.
03.) Sorry, not sure, the best i can do is suggest searching AppBrain or AndroLib & just trying out the highest rated / most downloaded.
04.) I have Wireless Tether because it came with my ROM, but i didn't see it on AppBrain.
05.) Documents To Go seems to edit *.doc's, although i've never used it.
06.) Sorry for the dumb question, but do you mean WiFi access to the Phone or Desktop? SwiFTP FTP Server to access your EVO over WiFi. Or PhoneMyPC seems to be another popular app to access your PC from your Phone, however it costs $9.99. I'm sure another user may have a better free suggestion if that's what you're looking for.

you need to have a rooted phone for shootme don't you?

[APP] MySQL Manager

I'm trying to get a feel for what kind of demand there is out there for a MySQL manager for Android.
Obviously there's only going to be a small niche of people who would want/use one, myself included, so I guess I wanted to get the feedback of the people on these forums to see what demand is like.
I'm currently building one that I plan to stick on the Android Market in the next week or so, and I'll let everyone who expresses interest know when that happens. The first version I put out will be a "lite" version. Features will include:
Create/Edit/Delete server/db credentials
View a list of all Tables, Views, and Stored Procedures in a db
View first 100 records of any Table or View
Drop Tables, Views, and Stored Procedures
Add/Edit Views
Add/Edit Stored Procedures
Run custom queries
If the demand and responses are good, I will completely re-do the UI, add some nice graphics, and put out a much more feature-rich version. Not going to waste my time to do that, though, if I don't feel there is enough need.
Thanks in advance to everyone who responds!

I would definitely use this. Personally, running custom queries would be the only thing I would use it for tho (i'm a sql/command line ninja haha). Hard saying how often I would use it. Currently I just ssh into a nix box and use mysql client from there when I'm remote/without a laptop and need to fix something.

I have released the initial version of my app on the market. Search for AndSQL.
Keep in mind, this is a very rough first version and is not intended to be complete with features. If response/feedback is good I will re-do UI, add graphics, and style it. Any feedback is greatly welcomed. Thanks!!
-teleknEsis
Can't find on the market, is there a download link?
Also, about "Run custom queries" is there the option to save/load the queries too?
I will appreciate that because i often run the same queries, so i save and load them when i need

As of right now there is not. This would be a feature I would definitely add if I decide to make a 'full' version. This was really more or less just a quick tool I made for myself to do quick db edits/checks on the fly when problems are reported. It has a ton of potential, I'm just not sure how large the demand is for a 'full' version of this.
My app targets 2.1 and up so not sure why you don't see it in the Market, but I'll go ahead and post it in the OP. Look for it there.
Ok, thanks for reply, it's quite useful already to do quick and emergency checks.
I'm on froyo now, so i should be able to find it in the market...

There's likely a bug in my connection error reporting. If you're not seeing any tables or views then there's probably something wrong w/ your connection settings.
Make sure your MySQL db is set to allow remote connections, and also verify that the port you specified is correct. Hope that helps
Im' pretty sure everything it's ok, from my home pc i can connect without any problem...

for this one, go to your gmail account [web] and select "Contacts" and find "More actions" button, under this button..., click "Find & merge duplicates..."

I guess google will be your friend ^_^ [hint: search: benefits on rooting android]
Your question about rooting almost applies to all devices and not just this phone alone ^_^
others can add as well...
Download any easy to use system app uninstaller. I used Root Uninstaller, even though it gets kinda buggy sometimes. Back up your apk before uninstalling it, in case something goes wrong and you need it. Also freeze the apk if you think that uninstalling it will cause serious problems.
you can uninstall any bloatware ifyou have any, or other system apps which chomp away at your battery life with their running services. just be careful not to remove anything important.
Download a CPU app which changes your CPU frequency to conserve battery. SetCPU is what I use. SetCPU also provides a pretty detailed explanation to how to use their apk on their website. While you're at it, you can download an overclocking apk as well if you think it lags sometimes when you play games or have alot apps running.
I use the apk, Milestone Overclock. It is simple and works.
This is what I've done after rooting, just giving a few suggestions.
Thanks....Can we increase our app memory? Can I install more than 175mb?

For the app memory problem, download any kinda app that has the keyword APP 2 SD/ Apps2sd. Theres several free apps out there that can do this, and paid apks floating around the internet as well. This is just one of them: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.a0soft.gphone.app2sd&hl=en
It moves your applications into your SD so that you can free up your internal phone storage. The downside of that is sometimes if you connect phone to your usb, you will have no access to the apk on your phone.
ex. if you move texting app to SD, when your computer has access to USB, the cannot work.
So, just move accordingly. Not really much of a big deal.
Hello
Just checked. App 2 Sd is incmpactable with my Milestone XT 720
Now, how rooting or any app help can help me?
P.s - I am sorry to keep bugging u. I hope, m in compliance with forum rules

App2SD only works in 2.2 or higher. I think you're running the stock 2.1 with root? If so, look for an app called Link2SD. You will have to partition your SD card with an additional FAT partition, but otherwise it's very similar to App2SD (it's actually superior in many respects, really).
Thankyou. Yea...All Milestone XT 720 are 2.1 . I have installed Link2SD...Now, how to create partition? Btw, is rooting important for this app n procedure?

Read my thread this will help you. Androidiani has an option to remove the camera click.
Also reverend is a valued member of this forum and his videos have helped all of us. Please refrain from calling something you dont understand fishy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217270
You can get rid of the camera click sound by going into /system/media/audio/ui and delete the camera_click.oog file or rename it to something else (like .goo) so you don't have to delete it.
Obviously make backups before doing this though.

Free Remote Android Support App

Zikk is unique mobile to mobile remote support app.
So what's so special about Zikk?
It is designed for consumers and not for IT depatments and operators,
therefore it is extremely simple and user friendly.
It provides full privacy protection - no screen sharing, and no access to SMS, email, etc.
It doesn't require constant internet access, and doesn't prevent the recipient from using his
phone for other purposes during the process.
It supports all Android devices (2.2 and above).
In addition to remote support, Zikk contains a local settings menu which uses Zikk's simple
and friendly interface.
When people have a hard time setting up their smartphones, they ask help from their friends
and family - Zikk enables users to help each other.
APK attached. Also available on Google-Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zikk.alpha)
where you will also find a short and helpful demo video. You van also find the video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsP9-Lpfwpk).
So both people need Zikk installed, I presume? Does the person you are helping get prompted to download it?

Correct. If the selected contact does not have the app, the user will be asked to allow sending
an automatic SMS with a link to the download page. There is also a share option where you can
send this message (via SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) to one or more people.

This really does sound great; however, does it support wifi-only tablets? Is the phone number just to receive verification code? If so, will any mobile phone number work?

The current version is designed for Android phones does not support WiFi-only tablets or
large screen tablets, however in a few weeks I will publish the tablet version, which will
include UI adjustments, tablet related features and a different registration process.
Sounds AMAZING! I'd really like to use this to help my friends and family. I live in India though
No worries, I'll wait
fantastic idea!!! this will surely take off!! kudos to the OP!!
how far this app will go ? I mean can I help someone from anywhere ?
What about phone types? What if my phone is a Nexus and the other device is a HTC?

Great ideas for the next version - thank you very much!
I like the app a lot, but what make it one of the best is if I could move, install, & uninstall system apps, and a root file manager so that we can help rooted users also
uninstalled this app from my Galaxy Note i717 and now the home screen is gone and I cant get back into recovery?

Actually a version for rooted users is an interesting idea. Not sure how common "less tech savvy"
rooted users are though. If you have more ideas for features for rooted users I would love to hear them.
I actually have a friend who is just getting into root use who calls for advice when he needs it. Let's be honest we were all beginners once and maybe could have used a little hand. He moved recently so there is distance involved now. This looks like a great idea.
I would love to have access to the settings menus, root file explorer and perhaps apps he already has installed such as set CPU or apps of that nature.
Beginners in root use are just as confused by root abilities as beginners in android are of it's stock features at times.
It would be really great to be able to start a log cat app and have your friend do something that normally causes a crash for example if they are not advanced enough to run one themselves. A current issue I have on hand. Trying to explain how to run one and sending videos to watch.
Hope this keeps going :thumbup:

Unlimited hotspot guide.

So this worked for me on metro pcs Moto e5 plus but I'm sure it will work for other carriers as well.
YOUR PHONE MUST BE ROOTED AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF GUIDES FOR THAT.
You will need two things
First a VPN (you will find many VPN for free..the one I have tried it with is Hola VPN. I haven't tried any others as that one gave me good speed and it was free.
Next is HotspotVPN. Also a free app that is available on the app store..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.mygod.vpnhotspot
What this is doing is creating a hotspot through the VPN which it doesn't detect actual usage. To test I downloaded a 2 gb file and than of course checked and it didn't show any usage.
So step 1 is after both are installed open holavpn. When you turn on the VPN you will scroll in the app till you see the hotspot VPN app. It will ask you to open it.
2. Now that you are in the app you will turn on hotspot and than above that will show another option of wlan0. Once you turn that on it will ask for root access which of course you will grant.
Very simple setup and took me some time to research on getting a unlimited hotspot. I will say sometimes after shutting it down it will stop data on my phone. You don't have to reboot just put it in airplane mode and than take it off and it will fix that issue.
If you have any issues please post and I will try and respond asap.
Just used expressvpn and it worked also. So it should work with any VPN.
I highly doubt this works but I can't tell because there are about a MILLION apps on the Play store called "HotspotVPN"
Who made the app you're referring to? Link please..
And not calling you a liar, it just seems highly improbable that you "stumbled onto" something that no one else in the ENTIRE MetroPCS/T mobile community has yet to discover.
Has anyone else tested this?
Sorry for late response. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=be.mygod.vpnhotspot
I'm honestly telling you this does work. Maybe I got lucky in my research. Infact I'm not even sure how I found this out as I googled hardcore on this..lol

To be honest here why wouldn't I be able to find what others haven't? Though I may not be able to code a new rom doesn't mean I can't actually find a way to do something. So I when you do try it and it works I hope you can admit you were wrong. If I could post screen shots of it working I would but can't think of any screenshot that would prove it.

Those are only VPNs not the hotspot app. Please read before posting. You can choose your own VPN so no worries on that.
If you try this please post that it is working so others may see that or if you ran into any issues so that I can answer them.
