Hi,
when i have hardware keyboard open, and touch the softkey menu (for example in RSS hub, or in Messaging) the menu slides down.
Don't know what it is... it looks like virus
I made this thread, so that you could recommanded aps that works with your x10. Etc apps that you frequently use and so on.
I hAven't gotten mine yet, but I will probably get the same main apps as I had on the magic.
1. Gulesider( a Norwegian app, a really nice app. A easy way to find phone numbers etc. It does also show the name of the person that is calling you)
2.advanced task manager( allows you to shut down some of the apps running on your device)
3. AndFtp ( a FTP app)
4. Glance( file manager)
5. Pure calendar(a good looking calendar widget for your android phone, there is a theme for it that is transparent. Love this widget tbh)
6. Spotify
7. Yr.no (a weather widget)
8. NRK radio
9. OI File Manager/OI Notepad
10. TV Guide
11. Science facts
feel free to share some of the android Apps that you like.
Im using same apps as on the legend and hero.. Good habits are hard to change:
gulesider and yr ofcourse.
Estrong Taskmanager (my choise of taskmanager)
Estrong File Explorer
Dolphin Browser (really great browser for android)
Zedge Ringetones & wallpapers (Great selection, and ofcourse, since they're norwegian)
Weather Widgets (yr.no) - Copies the HTC flip clock (Which I love !)
Battery Graph - nothing like analyzing that battery drain!
SuperDial for faster contacts lookup.

first of all, it is called Spotify
and yes it does exist for the android platform
And I would say that it works better than the one for the iPhone. I can't really say anything about the symbian version, since I have never had a symbian phone. And probably will never have, since I do not like that OS....
So, here's my list:
Advanced Task Killer
Battery Time Lite
Spotify - Rocks
Reader widget - Excellent for my google reader-feeds
Scoreboard - Football scores
Calwidget - Nice widget for my calendar
Handcent SMS - Brilliant SMS app
aTAKEphone - Nice phone/dialer-ap
YR.no widget - Weather widget
mVideoPlayer - Handy video player
ASTRO - Excellent file browser
FlashLightApp - widget using camera light
Apps Organizer - Quite useful with widgets for labels
Barcode Scanner - Scann app-barcodes
FotMob - Excellent football-app
FxCamera - Fun camera app
GPS Logger - Logs your GPS-position to file - can be used to geotag your SLR-shots for example
Gule Sider - norwegian national phone book
Locale - Auto-change settings based on location
PdaNet - Tether
StopWatch - you got it
TV Guide - Norwegian tv guide
Zedge - wallpapers and ring tones
bloo - facebook application that actually gives you notifications on useful things like comments on posts. The official android facebook app cannot do this.
I've got a new one to add:
NewsRoom
A wonderful take on the typical RSS reader, this app allows access to RSS feeds as preview pages, which you can flip through and select for full articles. Much more complete and interactive than a typical text-list layout of most RSS readers.
Weather Widget ( now called Weather & Toggle)- HTC Clock/weather widget and system toggle widgets. Is also skinable.
Weather Widget Weather addon- Adds a weather forcast when you tap on the weathr icon on the clock.
Handcent- Best SMS app
Astro- Awesome File explorer AND taskkiller ( many don't know that it has a great task killer included)
FlashLightApp- A one button on/off widget to turn our camra light on or off.
GPRS Monitor- Monitors data usage
Pure Grid Calander- Mimics the HTC calander widget
Sportstap- Best sports updates, scores, news, even notifications.
OperaMini5- Web Browser
Aldiko- Ebook reader
WiFinder- WiFi finder
HelixLauncher- A home replacment option that offers customixable Home options. have up to 7 screens, adds 4 "buttons" to the app drawer slider on the home screen, double tap home screen to see min versions of all other screens. This is the best Home option out there.
HTC_IME-hi keryboard- My favorite Keyboard by far.
Swype- Yes, I'm jumping on the Swype bandwagon and trying it out. Takes a bit to get used to but is a very smart keyboard for predctions. Rarley gets my input wrong and is faser then tapping. I'm still on the fence about using it full time as my text input.
I'm now adding swype too.... its possibly the cleverest and definitely most innovative app ive seen on a phone in some time.
I started off with SlideIT and have been using Swype for a few days now..
It's definitely a much nicer looking UI... but I reckon that SlideIT is actually more acurate, quicker and easier to manage??....
SyncMyPix - a pretty good app to add the picture from your facebookcontacts to your phone contacts!
I found that weather and toggle seemed to be sucking juice out of my battery... what's your battery life like?

You most likely have the app checking for weather updates too often, set it to something like 6 hours (how quick does weather really change).

Hey everyone!
I'm a huge fan of the Zune Home launcher, I love its look and interface. The one thing I really miss though is access to a few widgets. I don't use too many, but I'd really like to be able to use Power Control along with a couple others.
If you aren't familiar with Zune Home, its just one screen with a scrollable list of sections (email, internet, photos, apps) and a side column of your favorite apps. There's no room for widgets here (nor would I want them right there on the main screen) and its only the one screen, no left or right aux screens.
A workaround I thought of is somehow putting a shortcut or app in the quick launch that leads to a page of widgets. I tried searching around for "widget page app" and many versions of that idea, but as you might guess, it's really hard to search for.
Any ideas?
tl;dr Is there any app that simply brings up a blank page that you can fill with widgets?
Thanks!
try searching the market for powerstrip or quickdesk or smart-taskbar
QuickDesk is absolutely perfect! Thank you!

My website: http://quickagenda.me
Have updated the attached APK with a new installation/setup wizard and other niceties. Will put it on the market tomorrow sometime
This beta is now on the market if anyone is interested: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.everybodyallthetime.android.quickagenda.trial
Still looking for feedback on this if anyone else time to test it
Just updated the market version to 0.9.2 which allows multi row widgets.
Downloading now.
Thunderbolt ¡das BAMF!
Cool, let me know what you think
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
0.9.3-Beta now on market, various fixes to update logic and import/export ics files.
Multi row widgets now allow you to choose the top row and show upcoming for the others (settings->widget->event mode->chosen top, others upcoming).
Choose a row by opening the Quick Agenda, tap and hold then press "choose event"
I was looking for something to replace Smooth Calendar widget and after I tested few other, I tested Quick Agenda.
It was a litle pain to understand how to configure it, but after I managed to set it, I have to say that it is the agenda widget I was looking for!
It is working very good in my system (look at my sig ).
Feedback left on Android Market (John - Apl 17)...
Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you like it!
Any suggestions on what I can do to make the setup easier to understand? (e.g. what did you have trouble with?)
Hard to make suggestions as I'm starting to get used to the settings...
Meanwhile, I think I found a little bug: I had four appointments for tomorrow and using the left side panel (Quick Agenda) I changed the day to April 20.
The display was refreshed ok after a minute.
After that, using again the Quick Agenda menu, I changed the dates again to April 23, but the displaying appointments were not refreshed (they were on April 20).
So, Quick Agenda had the 4 appointments showing on April 23 but the main widget menu was showing them on April 20 (when I clicked on each one to edit, the date was on April 20).
After I opened the settings menu for widget and for Quick Agenda and closed it, the display was corrected to April 23.
Something else I want to ask for, if it is possible to select a span for the days ahead which is going to be displayed in widget (e.g. only the following 3 days, etc.)
Thanks in advance
So you would like the widget to refresh when one of the events on it changes? Should be possible!
Span of days is pretty easy as well.

Maybe would be a good idea to have a service running in the background to make possible to change immediately the widget contents when an event changes or in an addition/deletion of an event (in Smooth Calendar there was the selection of auto update (for the widget) which started the background service)

Yep, an ugly content observer doing something its not supposed to the background is the way I will be doing it
Should get to it later this afternoon or tomorrow, I will try to make it steal as few resources as possible!

Done, this new setting is available in market (along with the "event look ahead"/span of days feature and other enhancements). It is sort of hidden in customize widget->update settings->Refresh on change (at the bottom).
Let me know how it goes!

I'm going to test it and tell you how it goes
Early first impressions
After installing new beta, I have to remove old widget and set all over a new one
The worse: I was almost done with my settings and I was in Quick Agenda's setting page. I pressed the bottom selection ('Widget setting') and I had Force Close
Every time I press the above selection it gives Force Close (the message it gives is:
"The application QuickAgenda (process com.everybodyallthetime.android.quickagendatrial) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Oh no! Sorry about your settings, I will be adding a restore feature soon to load settings from other widgets (I should probably add tis function first next time).
I think I have fixed the widget settings button (uploaded a new version to the market just before). Does it fix fit?
EDIT: PM'ed you my email address, maybe we can recover the prefs
Ok I got your pm.
I'm going to send you an email in a few minutes...
This app is getting close to release time, check it out while it is free!
Recent changes:
Save/Load widget settings
rejigged the settings some more
changed the default view to be upcoming and chosen
Layout upgrades
I realized yesterday, that I think this app has an identity crisis.
Its not quite a popup agenda app
Its not quite an agenda widget app
Its not quite a count down widget app
Its not quite an ical handler app
It has all these functions though they are all muddle together.
The 2nd and 3rd are easy, remove the "single row" option from the current widget and make another widget called "countdown". But this could also be a separate application.
The first one is hard. I could release Quick Agenda as just the agenda popup and allow other applications (such as a new countdown widget app or new agenda widget app) to interface with it or I could leave it built in to this weird Frankenstein app I have already created.
The last one should be in all my apps
Any opinions?
(1st thread and post, just wanted to share this).
Hello, and welcome to my tutorial on how to install Sense 4.0 on your android. Like the title says, these are all apps from the play store, and will require some tweaking, which I will take you through. Let's get started
Step 1: Installing your apps.
First, we will need some apps that will contain the lockscreen, interface, and some Sense-Like widgets. Here is a list of the apps you need to install:
Agile Lock free
Go Launcher EX
HTC Sense 4.0 (One X) Go Theme
Sense V2 Flip Clock & Weather
Android Pro Widgets
TV Show Favs
Once you've done this, press the Home key, and select Go Launcher EX as your home replacement, not Agile Lock.
Step 2: Lockscreen
Open up the Agile Lock app, and press either Yes or Never Show. Then press the power button. Next, press the settings button, and press continue. Then, press "Top Style Setting", and uncheck "Display weather widget". Go back, and uncheck screen lock sounds, unlock vibrate, and display music control.
Step 3: Theme
Press the menu key, and go to themes. Scroll over to the installed page, and apply the sense 4.0 theme.
Step 4: Preferences
Press the menu key again, but this time press preferences. Check infinite scrolling. Click visual settings. Scroll over to "Icons" and select the icon size as "Default Size". Then scroll over to "Indicator" and click Screen Indicator. Press Hide Indicator. Then go back. Press "Appearance Settings". Scroll over to App Drawer. Select the Grid Size as "Custom Grids" and make it 5x4. Don't select the 5x4 preset, as it doesn't work correctly.
Step 5: Setting Up The Homescreens
For your main homescreen, set a 4x2 Sense clock. Select your location (It might find it for you), and then uncheck display 24 hour time, and check am/pm. Next, get rid of all the preset apps. You can set up any apps you want, but I personally set a default LTEvo setup, (Contacts, Play Store, Google Apps Folder w/ Gmail, Talk, Maps, G+, and Voicemail). Same goes for your dock (LTEvo = Phone, Email, Apps, Messaging, Camera).
Keep in mind, this is just an LTEvo setup, you can fit your own fancy.
Scroll to the left once. For this, set a 4x4 People Widget.
Scroll left again. Set a 4x4 Calender widget.
Once again, to the left, I personally just set a google play music widget, and resized it to a 4x4, but you can just put whatever you want for a music widget.
Go back to the right once from the homescreen. Set a google search widget.
To the right again, set a bookmarks widget
On the last right page, set a 4x4 TV Show Favs widget. It will bring up a login. If for any reason you have an account already, use it. Otherwise, make one. Now if you don't make one, the widget won't show. Make another one, but with a tv show stack widget. If you back out again, it will be clear, which won't look good. If you make an account, it will be black, so that is preferable.
That's it. You will have a sense 4.0 like experience. I hope you like it. And remember it's OK to customize it!
