Does somebody know a task killer similar to the iPhone's? Please reply only if you are familiar with that phone and know what i am talking about. However i don't feel like there is one, but anyway worth the try
Would suggest reading this first: Android Task Killers Explained: What They Do and Why You Shouldn’t Use Them
I am aware of the facts, thanks. I still am interested though.

This is probably the most popular one. http://www.appbrain.com/app/advanced-task-killer/com.rechild.advancedtaskkiller
I don't suggest using one though.
I think this might be what you want: TaskMan
You can start it by long pressing the search button.

I can't remember -maybe EZDial- there is a keypad software that vibrate phone when you press any key.
Can someone develop this feature for HTC's keyboards and keypads. This feature not same hard key but feel the key if pressed or not pressed. And easy use without looking key. eg. SMS writing....
sorry for bad english.
I don't think that this has anything to do with ROM development. Mods please move this thread.

sorry but i think that will be a killer app for diamond and if cooks cook it in it is relevant for this rom developement thread ;-)
I agree too.
I had this feature on my last LG Viewty.
It's really usefull when u press the keypad per exemple.
Sur it's no good for the battery, but, as an external application that can be switched off/on when we want... hummm could be cool!
i had this on a viewty too, then i send back the viewty after 2 days for not syncing with like 10 different pcs, dont add this feature, or make it a option instead of a always-on-thing, because i really dont want to remember that viewty, seriouslly

Despite the anguish that this application would apparently cause to suicidal.banana (seriously, just don't install it!) I think this would be awesome too...and the same idea is floating around in two or three other threads as well.
I'm coming from p1i and having lost the feeling of pressing a real key is a mess.
I think a very small vibration when a character is pressed would be a great idea

You are a moderator? No. Leave the decision to a real mod.
Ithink that this kind of app maybe spectacular..

Are you a mod? I personally don't mind suggestions in a thread. Helps me feel out the consensus of the thread.
I know someone made a program like this for the Kaiser, I don't know if it would work here though.
maybe this one should help.
it works even tough by now it introduces some small delay when scrolling the touchflo. it's worth a try anyway

What you guys want is called Haptic Feedback. Phone would vibrate when a button on the touch screen is pressed so that it feels like you're pressing a real button.. sort of.
I would like this too! haha. Even the Sony Ericsson G700 has this feature.
Those that have tried both programs; can you give me your opinion of which one has better functionality? I will receive my Diamond next week, and I am trying to decide on programs.
Which do you like best and why?
Thanks!
I had used Klaxon since its first version. I have never had problem with its functionality. I never liked the UI. The new Klaxon UI does not look bad, yet I was facing problems - too slow in some ways/screens.
I had tried G-Alarm and I had to stay with it. This alarm is just COOL. Never had any problem, and on top of all it is skin-able which I prefer. There are lot of settings too.
So I would myself recommend G-Alarm, but depends on everyone’s taste
I Use G Alarm

G-Alarm no doubt though BEST SOLUTION for Diamond
I have a majority voting for Klaxon, but no supportive data for it. All replies have been for G-Alarm. Anyone have supportive arguments for Klaxon?

you can try them both and cut the drama. it wont kill u or yr diamond but will save precious space here...are u going to keep asking for best file manager, best theme, best backup utility, best media player....best..best...
don't u get it? each one has his opinion for his own reasons. you'll never get a definitive answer. get yr diamond and see it for yourself! that's the fun part!
My first post and I have to take issue with berating people for starting a 'What is the Best' thread.
Sure, the search function is indispensable and trying options out is part of the fun of experimentation and learning, but with so many clued up and experienced people on here, taking someone's valued opinion is also a good thing.
Why force the OP to spend hours installing and resetting or making the mistakes many of us have? Sure, he'll lose some experience, but having a Sen Member's 2 second opinion is surely going to help. It may even help other experienced people make a valued call. We can all learn................
BTW. G-Alarm.

Thanks for your USELESS post! I appreciate the opinions of other members. If you didn't want to provide an opinion, then just don't post and leave it to the others that will take a few seconds to reply. You wasted precious time with your useless reply and you could have been being useless somewhere else!
Because of this post I'm going to try G-alarm
There is nothing wrong with asking questions, when people post the answers it can help lots of people. This way there is more content to search through.
However trying stuff is the best way, but without threads like this people might not try.

Exactly. Never hear of G-Alarm until I saw this thread. So thanx for starting the thread. Downloading and will give it a try. Have tried Klaxon previously but it did not float my boat.
Klaxon. I love being able to turn off the alarm by just flipping the phone over - can't see that G-alarm has that function yet.

i gave you my opinion and i still think is good advice. no need to be rude even if u don't like it.
more ppl using klaxon doesn't mean that the g-alarm is less good, it just mean that more ppl use it. how many are using klaxon after trying g-alarm? what's sweet for one can be bitter for somebody else. try it for yourself. you'll never get a "clear cut" answer from a poll.
the only reason my post might be useless is because it was given to the wrong person. you want everything cut in pieces and chewed for you.
I was using Klaxon till now, but due to this thread I'll try also G-Alarm. What I dont see in G-Alarm (and Klaxon has it) is the Home Screen integration. After setting up an alarm in G-Alarm, the Home Screen still shows "Alarm Off". Also in S2U2, I don't see the upcoming alarm (of course, U2S2 is taking the info from Home Screen).
I don't care about having a load of ringtones played as my alarm, I usually have a single alarm tone that has the effect of waking me up...and that's all I need. Also I don't need a maze...the application is great, but it would be better (for me at least), if it'll have that integration
I dont understand what this thread is about. I hadnt heard about G-Alarm. But I tried it after reading this thread. As far I can say these 2 are 2 entirely differernt programs. Klaxon is an Alarm which utilises the G sensor but G Alarm is just an alarm like any other (I wonder what the G stands for). There is no option to stop or snooze the alarm by shaking or flipping the phone in G-Alarm. So, for its intended purpose, Klaxon remains the best
The program is well supported, looks great, and works like a charm at the latest update.
I love the vibrate feedback when you snoze.
Go for KLAXON.

c'mon man for goodness sake surely there is no harm in asking, besides it's a brilliant way of learning. I personally like the G-Alarm btw keep asking.

you're not in the position to say if someone likes a theme or not. it's your choice if you like an os or not, but stop posting useless comments.
Why can't people post useful comments instead of posting ****.
To the OP, the app you are looking for is iPhoneToday
What would it take to get a working windows phone 7 rom onto this device? I don't know anything about WP7 dev, but have been dying to try it and this phone is more than capable of handling the load, it's just a matter of if it would jive and such.
Any thoughts comments, etc?
If you truly want the w7 feel you should use desktop Visualizer I think... go to the themes section they have a guide on how to theme your android to something VERY similar... as far as actually porting a rom... think that's prolly a little too much coding and work considering if someone wanted it that bad they likely would have just bought it as such...

i read a thread, which i cant seem to find any more, about 'rooting' your android so that you can download any app for free.
there was two ways i read that it can be done, 1)downloading this app in the market, then just clicking a button in the app which then 'jailbreaks' or 'roots' your android and 2) installing it via USB..
does anyone know what the app is called?
or if someone can recall where this thread is, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advanced!
Ummm no.
Getting things for free is not what we like to talk about round here (if you exclude ROMs etc ). It is sometimes known as warez... or even theft.
Rooting is nothing to do with this. Very simply, rooting it is the process by which you can gain administrative access to your phone and enable options and configurability that you otherwise couldn't get. It also allows you to install certain apps that do not work on non-rooted phones. Most of the Android ROMs in the HD2 section are already rooted.
Ummm okay. Don't know what the above reply was about. You're looking for this (or similar)...

I can never find it on the market, so I always get it from here.
Hope it helps

the reply that you mentioned is about the comment the OP made about thinking that you can get any app for free when rooting, nobnut was just mentioning not to ask about getting free paid apps.
^ ya I just read that thread about not asking for free apps, so this thread not need to be expounded
But thanx for the comments anyways. This forum is extremely useful, and i don't want to jeopardize my status on it!
Good thing you could realize it that fast. Most of us realize it before joining. Good job anyway!

Oops - my bad! I didn't notice he'd asked to download any app "for free".
Apologies to nobnut
No worries.
