If my Android apps micro-review only served the purpose of bringing our good friend ewemoa back then I'm already happy :D

Wow, for someone who absolutely adores their Android phone,I feel like I'm seriously under using it reading after this thread. Well lots of stuff now to play with though :D

Like Deozaan, I run CyanogenMod. My phone isn't even an Android phone at all, it's the HTC HD2, a WinMo 6.5 phone. But the fantastic hackers over at xda-developers have gotten a host of different OSes running on it. It's incredible really and I've switched to Android full time.

As for applications, well as I said, I feel like a lightweight. but here goes.


* AdFree
* Swype
* SpiderOak
* KeePassDroid
* reddit is fun
* Chandroid
* Titanium Backup
I didn't include links as all but the Swype beta are on the Market. Since my phone is a custom ROM I should also give credit to the particular one I run, it's TyphooN CyanogenMod 7, a ROM which tracks the daily updates to CyanogenMods upcoming version 7 which is based on Gingerbread.

Deozaan, you should check out G1 at xda-developers. There are alternative ROMs being developed there. I notice one for Gingerbread.

Indeed anyone who wants to start playing with custom ROMs should check out xda-dev :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:

Deozaan:
Wow! The Swype beta is finally available for anyone! I never thought I'd get Swype on my phone. Thanks for posting that.

My phone is seriously underpowered for Android 2.2. It's so sluggish. . . I'm considering going back but I don't want to lose all the cool features. Maybe there's a nice speedy Gingerbread ROM for the G1 at xda-dev. Hey, I can dream right? Thanks for reminding me about this great resource. :)

EDIT: HOLY CARP! My dream came true! I found this great Gingerbread Yoshi ROM that is super speedy! I dare say my phone is now faster than my wife's! We both have G1s, but hers is still on the "Stock" Android 1.6. I seriously can't believe how fast this thing is.
:-* :-*

Wow. You all really use all that?

I've abandoned a lot of software because my carrier's network is so bad. It's just too painful to try using networked software. It's more like being in space - 0G instead of 3G. Loading a news article can sometimes take several minutes and is sometimes just futile. I've tried using Google Maps on my phone, and it's simply impossible. I could chart the land myself before a map loaded.

Sometimes network speeds are fast enough if I'm using Wi-Fi, but my ISP is similarly poor.

A friend of mine is a sys admin at Princeton and has used Skype on his phone for video conferencing while driving and said it worked well. I'm envious.
