free samsung apps - Captivate General

i recently flashed a rom with samsung task manager v1.11 included. i knew there was a newer version available but my samsung app always said "no updates" available. a google search revealed this thread with the following apps:
samsung task manager (listed as v1.11 but its actually v1.51)
asphalt 5
krazy kart racing
facebook S!
vlingo
samsung qwerty remote controller
nobex radio companion
eDict english-english, english-french, english-turkish
road sms
blinkx beat
comedy time
how cast
snap n go
click on the link above for app descriptions. these are not warez. all apps are freely available to samsung galaxy owners. i am not providing any support for these apps, just the link. the only app i have personally downloaded & tested is the task manager, and it works fine on a 2.2 rom. i do not know about the functionality/compatibility of the other apps. all credit goes to the original poster, and any questions or problems should be directed to that thread

aldiko is better than kindle and adw launcher is better than launcherpro but besides that great list
Arcus Dictionary i think is better then Dictionary.com, it doesnt require a Data plan to do look ups and is very fast
launcherpro is ok, zeam is better imho.

Having tried both, and several others (Zeam, Sweeter Home, and touchwiz) I stuck with Launcher Pro. Personal preference.

True. Launchers are completely down to personnal preference
Thanks for the list! I'll have my first Android phone (Captivate) coming in the next day or two so this will be very handy to refer to!
Thanks for the list! I just got a notice from VZ that I'm eligible for an upgrade (over a year early, so I guess they're really trying to sell those already unavailable Droid X and Incredibles...), and I'm planning on getting a new Android phone to replace my HTC Touch Pro2. Now I'll have a list of a few apps to try out!
Besides Dolphin browser, I would reccomend xscope. It is a free alternative to the regular browser and is pretty much just like Google chrome. Even set up to look like it. Not as much in the customization area as dolphin, buy definitely very easy to use, and most definitely faster.

I can't find Pandora Radio. Does it still exist?
Pandora radio is still on the market, if you can find it then use the link provided below to install it. You will need to use a barcode scanner app to scan the barcode. Once this is done it will take you directly to the app on the market and you'll be able to install it.

I agree, but Federico's work needs some work before its perfect.
Xiialive a lot better streaming music app than pandora, last.fm, or slacker. Pick from over 100 channels on shoutcast. So, less repetitive than the previous mentioned apps.
good list!
I like Gmote for streaming music from my home PC to my phone. You can do it over data connection (3g and 4g) or LAN. The only shortcoming is that it won't stream remotely via wifi, only LAN.
It also works as a remote control for your PC. Great for media servers!

If they can't find it on the market, another link to the market won't help. Could be Pandora is protected and their phone isn't showing protected (and likely paid) apps.

How to market your android games and apps part 1

Ok you put time and effort into your games or apps but still cant seem to get downloads. You might even see a game or app similar to yours but for some reason they are charting but your not. There are over 100,000 developers and over a million apps on googleplay. What are they doing that your not?
1) Website- I see a lot of developers that have a single blog page for all their apps. Look at the format of google play and match your website as close as you can to what google play has. Why? Customers are use to a certain format and like things that look familiar . Think like a customer when building a website and put the same effort as you were in programming your apps.
2)Social Networking-Make a twitter and facebook account. Any app release you have or updates post them.You can even interact with customers and get feedback directly from them. Use this as a tool to learn from real people and adjust your game or app based on feedback.
3)Make Niche Apps- There is no way indie developers can match the power of big companies. Rather than try to take on gameloft or EA focus on niche apps. Small apps like car locators or how to cook books. Small apps like these have been know to get more downloads vs making a game going against a bigger company. Small focused apps or simple games with great graphics can draw people to your app.
4)Post in Forums- Post your game or app in several forums. Be careful as many forums are not really indie friendly. Most forums have a section where you can post games or apps away from where regular forum users cant see. Also you might run into jealous developers who have nothing better to do then degrade your game. Post in several forums to bring in users but remember this is only a small part of your marketing efforts. This forums is very developer friendly though.
5)Rate Me Button- In your apps your should have a rate me button and a googleplay button that points to only your apps in google play. You can also have a button to your website to give the customer a more personal touch.
6) Paid vs. Free- I would suggest you make 4 to 5 free apps before making a paid app. Most customers do not want to pay and only enjoy free apps. You can make a paid version but be warned if you make a paid version users might
1) uninstall the free version
2)buy the paid version
3)refund the paid version but keep the apk on thier device
4) Now they have the paid version for free.
I will make another how to market your android apps part 2 soon. Till then good luck with your games and apps.
These are helpful tips seeing as me and a friend just released our first app a month ago, thanks!

Samsung Galaxy Labs - Optimize your phone

Hello everyone!​
Samsung has launched a new suite of device optimization apps for Galaxy smartphone and tablet owners called Galaxy Labs. Like Good Lock, which lets you customize various elements of the user interface, Galaxy Labs is a container of sorts that lets you access the actual apps that let you optimize your device from a single location. There are four apps: File Guardian, Battery Tracker, Battery Guardian, and App Booster.

You can read the full article at @SamMobile
They seem to work on my S9+. Only Battery Tracker is crashing. Going to play with them a little bit later. If anyone wants to try, can download them from @SamMobile or my mirror from MEGA below
Download: LINK​
Battery Tracker not working!!?
Yeah, It seems to crash, I forgot to mention in the first post. But, also, with all my respect...After testing, I could say those apps, at least for the moment, are useless and can be considered bloatware.
