Yeah, but it can't hurt to have some kind of security.
These are the apps we know are malicious, but there might be more out there.
so what antivirus would you recommend? lookout if ok, but i cant stand having a "X" over things that i dont pay for. i want it all to have the green check mark. lol. whats a good free one that doesnt kill the battery?

I just installed Norton, looks pretty good.
But now that you mention it, my battery did take an unusual beating this morning.
Might be related.

I've tried out Avast... can't say how well it works, since it hasn't caught anything... but then again, there shouldn't have been anything for it to catch...
It comes with the mobile security it too.. nice piece of work and I didn't really notice any extra battery drain. Hard to say for sure, but it certainly didn't make the list when I check battery use.

I use lookout and have for quite some time. You get a free 14 day trial of premium which has the ability to find and remote wipe the device. The best part is you don't have to activate that trial until you need it(which I hope I never do). As far as battery issues it uses very few resources.

I was just wondering is it would be cool to make some kind off application to automatically silence several contact and incoming sms. I know there are some apps that work like this but i would be cool to act like this:
lets say: 4 girlfriends
amy - anna - annely - amber
When you at amy house select in the app your at Amy.
So automatically Anna - Annely - Amber is being locked or silenced.
All sms and contact are temporally removed. When you are going over at Anna the rest are being locked and silenced.
Would be cool to have a nice UI whit pictures.
Sound stupid but could be handy
Wow... that would be cool.
Sounds more like "I'm cheating and I don't want the one girl to know about the other" personally, I don't think that's the type of app we should be developing here...
You might be able to use callfirewall to do what you want! dont get caught though!!
This is not a thread to discuss whether you should cheat or not
every call firewall have profiles, you need that many profiles as much as your girlfriends are every profile will have blocking for a cetrain numbers you wish, yes it is simple - but you have to change the profiles manually

Nope, my love life is great, not that it matters to you... I just think that guys who cheat make the rest of us look bad and make girls suspicious of even the loyal guys... In short cheating and sneaking around makes it tough for those of us who are actually honest...
i know magicall works for that too
Sorry, no app is going to get you 4 girlfriends.
Don't think the OP was asking for four GFs. But i agree that this request does raise questions about male honesty.
hahaha its an idea that could be used in more constructive ways.
Like say you give your phone to one of those annoying people that just HAVE to see it. You can just change a quick setting and hide select things like say a couple folders (maybe ur pics folder) and texts for some of your contacts (like say your girlfriend). I mean honestly, who wants someone reading you and ur gf's texts? and then looking at all of ur pics? that way the only thing you have to worry about is them dropping ur baby. lol
EDIT: notice i said "girlfriend"....singular. lol
only 4??????
man, i wish i had this a few years ago, might have saved the first wife from seeing texts from the other gurls......... anyway i digress... yes the aps above do work ok, sometimes...., but if your life (wife) depended on it, i wouldnt.....
Provided you are not in a committed relationship with any of these women, I would suggest being more upfront about the fact that you see other women. A lot of women are surprisingly comfortable with this.
Damn, wish I needed an app like this...
Ok let’s close this thread. I think this app will never come to life. I should probably put more time learning programming so I could make it my self. But then again if I could do it my self with ease I think I would never ever needed it
Strange how one thread elsewhere makes you think of something totally unrelated on xda-developers.

Have you ever heard the Mobile Phone Throwing Championships? You don't need to attend it. Try this app! It can let you know how far you can throw your cell phone. Just hold it to do a throwing action, but do not really throw it out. It can show you the best throwing distance.
Of course you can use it to do some arm exercises.
- An online top list included where you can submit score
Search "Mobile Phone Throwing" on Android Market.
Any questions or suggestions, I will be monitoring this thread!
Thanks Guys

thanx a lot! placed it at russian PDA forum, people have a lot of fun
UPDATE: tested it for several times, but it shows the much smaller distance than IRL. Are these any tricks? My top result is about 5m only.
I foresee a LOT of destroyed android phones in the future.
How about creating an app that shows how high you can throw your phone in the air based on GPS? You can always catch it when it comes down... or try to.
It's only a $600 phone =)

So after searching, and doing a lot of research I still haven't found a decent auto tuning application. Were are the devs at?? Im willing to pay, and im sure there are plenty of more people who are. With the release of the "I am t-pain" app on the iphone, android hasn't been able to keep up. I love the **** out of my evo, but I feel like there should be more in the app market. Theres no good drum apps, no auto tune, no good keyboard/synth apps, no recording apps. Why are we slacking so hard here. What the hell do we need to do to get this going and produce apps people want that aren't pointless. Please, lets shed some light on this!

Thank you, even if they made an app that could port iphone apps that would be amazing. Or even make apps on the iphone compatible with bump, cause I noticed you cant put apps in bump on the iphone like you can with droid. Maybe something along these lines would be better and cut the hassle of making apps for different platforms, and at the same time everyone can be happy.

Anyway, I feel your pain. There really aren't any really nice music apps for android. I use beat maker on my ipod touch and its damn near a production center, unfortunately we just don't have the developer support. Not sure w are gonna get any support any time soon. They can't even pay developers to jump ship and develop for android
Hahaha I love all the hate I'm getting for saying something I would like to see. Feels like I'm back in high school again with all the little immature kids.

As someone who's actually tried to get something like I Am T-Pain working on Android, I can tell you the reason you don't see more music apps like the ones Smule does for iPhone is due to the relative lack of any sort of low latency audio API in Android. See here for more information: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3434
I just found it amazing you said Android been behind the curve ever since the t pain app for iPhone, as if that's THE app that defines how good an OS is. Wow. Just as you said its a time waster, cool, but ultimately useless, and therefore I'm sure its not a priority right now.
Would be fun to play with though, all I have is my 1g ipod touch so I never got to mess around with it. Just not somethin I'm hurting for
Why so much hate in this topic? The guy is looking for a neat app on the apps discussion board. Big ****ing deal. If you don't like it, then don't even post and save everyone else the time of finding out what a baby you are.

Hey all,,,
Well, im trying to root my samsung mesmerize and when i get to the part where it says run as administrator, it keeps asking for a password. Is there a step ive missed or something else i have to do? Please let me know. I'm trying to use my phone as a wireless hotspot or wireless tethering device to use for laptop or xbox 360 or whatever. So,, any info/help would be greatly appreciated, THANKS!!!!
What the hell are you talking about man? You've got to be more clear. Are you talking about running whatever root procedure on your computer as an administrator? If that's the case then the password is clearly going to be whatever the password is for the administrator account on your computer.
And by the way, no way you're going to be able to play 360 games online with tethering. You would lag out the ass.

Ive played WoW on my mobile connection before, granted it was very laggy it was still do able, in comparison hughes net was a worse gaming connection then the cell but neither are great, not recommended for anything serious; as for the 360 the most I have even tried on there is just loading add ons and game updates both of which worked fine.

Aw, Add I'm so happy you care if I'm getting laid, I'm happily married with children and unfortunately probably much older than you, and since I've seen many of your bar posts I'll keep my carpral tunnel possibility because I like video games, have all the consoles too if you got some jokes to crack on those and you keep on rotting your liver. But thanks though dawg, good looking, I'm glad I'm not the only one looking out for my ****. And as for the do some drugs or something fun comment idk man I might have to state grow up a little and do what you do but don't advertise as its not legal yet, son.. What are you one of those I'm so cool 21 year olds who announces ha ha I'm so drunk, and make stupid posts from the bar because I can't handle my liquor, lol... I used to date stupid girls like you, do sit around and giggle incessantly too once your drunk and then in the morning claim omg what did I do last night because "you were too drunk to be responsible"...

I installed Scrabble Free for Android on my HTC Sensation 4G and signed up for my EA account, etc. That said, there is a message under settings > options that says: "You will need a registered Google account for Push Notifications to function." And I have Notification set to "ON." Clearly I have a Google account, but I'm not getting notifications, What am I doing wrong?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Maybe they could find a way to get more ads in this app.
Scrabble is crippled with ads, and on top of that the notifications do not even work. Way to go EA, it's almost as if you have never made a game before. With all the shovelware sports crap they pump out you would think they could throw their customers a bone with a free WORKING Scrabble game, and dare I dream, without ads.

You are correct. I don't see why I would need to see the ad for NFS Shift when I already have the damn thing installed on my phone.
