yeah thanks ill look into some of those

No need for a task killer on android, or something like juice defender. They are a waste of battery.

well Im trying out the free version of J/D and my batter since last night has stayed the same by now (6.30am) it would need charge so it seems like its working..
what about an app for remote access for desktop or either something like drop box that does not have a limit of 2gs.
Also a different note whats with other forums talking about the update about side loading what is that going to do that Side Loader Wonder Machine does not. Is the update for S/L'ing apps with a computer.
I found some cool games robo Defense, Crody, Robotek (had to load form the market place pc) and moblox and found G4 =) and cover art so when I transfer Mp3s over to the sd card this app will find the cover art

check out geocaching........ its fun with this phone

Im not rooted.. but other then using titanium backup is their something else.. but does the app2sd for like if you want to store some of the app on the sd card and it wont store as much mb's on the phones internal memory?
also is there a way to partition the SD card where you can make a fold on the phone and label it so I can move my apps or pics. im not sure if the app 2 sd pro does that and able to do a drag and drop or a copy and paste? to the folder

[APPS] What are your top 5 favorite cant live without apps

How is the community doing?
With so many apps available in the android market (google play) I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread with peoples top 5 cant live without favorite apps.
You can include any app with the exception of games there is a separate thread for that already, just make sure to note free or paid after the app name. Maybe we can bring apps to light that not many people dont know exist but are great!
Ill start my top 5 cant live without apps are:
1. Teamviever - free - productivity app that allows me to remotely connect to computers and help others diagnose issues
2. Work shifts free - free - app that keeps track of worked hours, pay days, etc
3. eBay - free - app that allows me to buy, sell on ebay
4. Dropbox - free - great for backing up files or just having extra storage
5. XDA premium - paid ($1.49) - keeps me connected to xda while mobile

I got a 25 dollar gift card to spend

Hey everyone I just got a 25 dollar Google play gift card and my nexus 5 should be here soon so what are some good apps/games to buy. List some free ones too. Anything good for school use and any fun games I should buy for it that I don't have yet? Obviously you don't know the games I have lol but just list anything. Thanks (and please nothing inappropriate)

Essentials:
Skype - Self explanatory.
AlarmDroid - Alarm clock with options to set MP3s, volume and obstacles.
Autorun For Skype - Starts the Skype app on device boot.
BetterBatteryStats - Helps to find wakelocks to preserve battery.
ES File Explorer - File manager with support for LAN and cloud services
Light Flow - Allows you to control the notification LED color for different apps.
ViPER4Android - Greatly increases the volume and quality of the sound.
Other things I use frequently:
2Fuse - A game where you combine digits in rapid succession to build a score. Definitely worth a look.
Asphalt 8 - One of the best looking racing games on Android.
DraStic - Nintendo DS emulator that runs just about every game at full speed.
Dropbox - Self explanatory.
Remote for VLC - Self explanatory.
Titanium Backup - Backup all of your apps. Useful if you switch ROMs frequently.
I've got more stuff on my Nexus 7 too if you'd like.

OK thanks but I have most of those already so I guess I already got what I need lol. I have drastic on my nexus 10 so I can just download it on my nexus 5 using the same account. Titanium backup I've had ever since my first time rooting a phone. The ones I don't have are 2fuse, remote for vlc, light flow, and viper4android. I'll have to check those ones out

Bump. I still have the credit and I got 2 more dollars and 30 cents from Google opinion rewards. So now my balance is 27.30. What are fun games to get? In tempted to buy modern combat but I think I'll wait for new one since I already beat it on my old phone. What other games like it are good. Or adventure games. What about tools and stuff? I have titanium backup, anything else useful? Would I be able to use my credit to buy a other things or only apps because I'd like to get one of the official cases. Also would it expire? It can I take my time using it? I never thought it'd be so hard to spend free money lol
