a little trick i've been using for a few weeks to enable listening to offline bbc radio shows
extremely easily. works for PC users with android, blackberry & ithings via Dropbox.
Radio Downloader allows you to subscribe and download any BBC iPlayer radio content or
RSS podcasts. Simply set the download target to the Dropbox folder and the content will be
available on your mobile device for download & offline listening.
links
Radio Downloader (pc only) | Dropbox Account (2.25gb free*) | Dropbox Apps
* - you'll get an extra 250mb on top of the standard 2gb cloud storage using this link.
since this is a multi-OS topic i guessed this is the best place to post.
That's a rather good idea
that's the same crap as using the BBC player to play the contents directly
if you are able to download stuff from dropbox account
might as well just download the show directly to your phone
why go through so much trouble to accomplish the same thing?

To my knowledge you can't save what you're listening to with the iplayer app (on phone or PC).
So for instance if I want to listen to the Now Show or the News Quiz, or even Any Answers, I can do so when I'm on the tube in London.
I've missed so many good programs simply because I'm not near a radio/computer at the time that they're on.
@AllGamer.
because this method allows you to play content offline & as far as i'm aware the iplayer doesn't allow you to download unencrypted content - or any at all on the android app.

Hello.
i looking for apps to add to my phone, and i really want an imdb mobile app.
After searching i have came to the conclusion that non exists (please correct me if im wrong).
i then found this site
Code:
http://nolanbrown.com/imdb
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
it redirects if you use IE , using chrome it appears to work.
after reading the about bit
"Since being released January 5, 2008, IMDb Mobile has been raved about as one of the best web applications available for the iPhone. It was voted a "Staff Pick" by Apple, made Apple's Most Popular page in Entertainment and in a mere 15 days, IMDb Mobile received more then 20,000 visitors."
it appears it was designed for iphone viewing and i guess the creator set it up to check for the browser and have a blacklist (it appears his blog not updated in some time, maybe chrome wasnt out when the he had the blacklist??? i dunno only guessing) so i assume changing the user agent on one of my mobile browser would make this site visible (unless anyone has a quicker solution).
i dont really want to change the user agent everytime so anyone know a imdb mobile app / quicker solution to use that site.
thank you for your time.
larry.
+1 for a IMDB Mobile App...would definitely be a nice app to have!
I would also like to get one...
Just as an alternative solution you can use the ebook-reader TomeRaider3, as they have the imdb database as a free download on their site (approx. 158mb) to read offline
Will give it a try...but I think an online app would be even better
Nevertheless thanks for your share!
Ascenca
i used to use it
i thought it was rather poor though, and if i remember correctly it is quite limited in what information it gives you.
the proper site works not too bad though.
Just downloaded this for my HD2 its an upgrade of a slightly older one and runs great once you go into the settings and assign a video player for the trailers to play on. In my case i navigated to windows/ windows media player

update
Oh tnx, I was still using v0.1.

Why are we suppose to talk about it since it's actually located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619359
Cool, didn't know it was on here too. Didnt want to post a link incase it got in trouble!
Hello all!
I have been lucky enough to finally get my Nexus One. Although my purchasing process was riddled with issues and lacked any support. I got the phone and it seems to be free of defects, and I am loving it even more than I thought I would.
I am moving from a Windows Mobile phone (FINALLY), and I had an app called Newsbreak which I used all the time. It would basically download all my feeds for offline viewing/listening including audio/video podcasts, and use the SD card for storage.
I have been looking for an equivalent on android and I appear to be left wanting. Most RSS reader appear to be online only, don't seem to support downloading podcasts, or requires Google Reader (sorry not wanting to give my Google Account password).
Does anyone know of a good offline RSS reader?
I have tried Newsrob (needs Google Reader), Listen (no offline?) and I am currently reviewing BlueRSS. I like BlueRSS, but I see no option to store on the SD card nor how to download the podcast or website for offline viewing. Since BlueRSS says it does this, I am not sure if I am missing something or it is just not able to do what I require.
If I need to I will design my own, but this is the only thing keeping me from using the N1 full time.
Thanks!
Check out Doggcatcher (no idea why they chose that name). Here's the feature list:
http://www.snoggdoggler.com/FeatureOverview
BeyondPod is a good solution as well. I use it for audio/video.
You can't beat Newsrob for RSS integration with GReader though. You can just create a new google account and export all your feeds and than use that exclusively for Newsrob.

DoggCatcher looks like ti will work and I will check out BeyondPod. I did not find these before since they appear to be paid apps, and I just moved my SIM over so it was hiding them from me before.
Wish there was a free one though. Maybe that will be my first Andriod project.
I really don't like Google Reader. Its convenient, but giving my login information to an app is just not safe. If there was a Google one I might try it, but they seems to want to force people to be online. Why use bandwidth so irresponsibly? Just don't make sense.
Thanks all!

Good one. I'm looking forward to trying this. Might it be possible to specify a RSS feed (news feed) and download multiple items in one go?
EDIT: The sound plays back through the earpiece on my SGSII. Also, the app can't be exited using the back button. Have to use home button and manually kill. I also got a few FCs.
The application works well though

Depending on your needs the answers will vary like the previous poster stated...
IMHO, the most useful apps (for me) are:
- Flash (Get latest from adobe archives, because they have stopped developing for Android)
- A Tor based browser to circumvent any national blocks. (There is a combined package)
- Google Drive, so you can edit/share spreadsheets etc without filling your SD card.
I'm sure there will be many more things you will get interested in...

Well that's all for now, 3M
Click the THANKS button if i was helpful in anyway ^^
Here are some that I get on new devices
Latest Flash player for Android Version 11.1.115.81 this is a direct download link, check download folder for the apk file.
SwiFTP it enables an Android phone or tablet to easily share files with computers or other devices over a wifi network. These computers only need to have an FTP client, which all computers do. You can walk around with your MP3/video/ebook/whatever collection and share it seamlessly with almost any wifi-enabled system.

Moviesy
Unofficial YTS client
Disclaimer :
I do not own any media content nor partnered with any associates. This app is free & has been developed as a hobby project to kill my time on Sundays by watching movies.
The app lets you download & stream HD movies from the YTS website on the go. It is basically an API + web-scrapping interface built on top of the website. The app has a built-in torrent downloader & media player to make your experience even better. You can easily download any movies in 4K, 1080P, 720P, etc. The interface is beautiful & has been put a lot of thought into while developing. The app will also notify you about any latest/featured movies. It even has a subtitle download feature, also the built-in media player supports playing subtitle as well.
Moreover, you can cast the downloaded or stream movies directly to any Chromecast supported device with subtitle support. There are many more features but I'll let you discover them! There is some premium content exclusive to the app so you can purchase & use it forever.​Mod edit: Download links removed
Downloading pirated moved is illegal in most parts of the world. Thread closed.
Few Tips & Notes
It is recommended to use WiFi instead of using mobile data (as some carriers like Airtel - India block access to visiting YTS website due to which the app will fail to load data.
If you get an SSL issue (HTTP 525) then it means the official domain is offline. The app can't do anything in this case as I don't own the website just scraps it. Usually, such an issue resolves in few minutes or might take an hour (in rare cases).

Sure you installed the latest v1.6? This is due to YTS website is offline. Nothing from my side! Should be resolved in few minutes or might take an hour!
You can manually check if yts.mx website is working or not. If not then the app can't do nothing until it comes online.

Yup latest one. Just got a notification few mins ago about ongoing maintenance on yts. I'll check by later Thanks
What is the maximum quality of the videos on this website? I sincerely like the interface. I'm watching everyday movies from my smartphone and it's kind of hard sometimes to close ads on streaming websites and so on.
Mod edit: Reference to piracy website removed.
