camera to text - Optimus One, P500, V Themes and Apps

does anyone here know an app which can convert a picture with text (e.g.my textbook's snap) to text ??

https://market.android.com/search?q=ocr&so=1&c=apps
the correct term is OCR
Optical character recog..
Click the market link above ya..
i haven't tried any app though.

Google docs does it. It works fine for me.

google goggles can do it

ABBYY BCR has a very good OCR engine, supports latin, cyrillic, chineese, arabic and other scripts. But it is specifically made for business cards, never tested it with pure text.
Google Googles is a cloud application while ABBYY BCR is offline.

Ultimate Translator

Dear android devs,
Please make an app that uses a combo of speech to text and google translations, and than it reads back out. I.e say hello in english into phone, user selects eng-spanish, phone says hola

Umm, that already exists. Its called Google Translate. If the speech input option is not present, you need to install Voice Search from the Market.

[Q] keyboard not shown using google docs in browser

I want to use google docs on my tablet not using the app but the browser. So I set my browser to show all like on a pc (desktop mode). After loggin in and opening a doc my tablet shows no keyboard, so I can't edit the doc.
Is there a way, to show the keyboard on my tablet? I'm wondering beeing the only person who has this problem, because I tried it with android-browser, dolphin an firefox.
I have noticed it too. I usually use the docs to go to do the editing. I use google docs to add pics to the document.

Great list. I just rooted a backflip and installed CM7 on it. It is better than stock but I still needed to trim more fat so that the phone is actually usable.
I think I'm in love with Moto rooting/modding. Never got into it with LG or HTC. Now I want to go and get my Defy back...!!

Deleting bloatware

Does anybody have a list of which files can be deleted(bloatware) like Chinese, Korean keyboard.
Also if possible a guide of what the app is called and what the app was for.
From the darkest reaches of my mind...... Somebody turn on the light.

you can delete any of the not important system apps, keyboards, and live wallpapers. theres no guide.
do not delete contacts and the gallery. removing the gallery will kill the camera, and the contacts cause all kinds of crash messages.
Talk, google+, maps and street view, gmail, books and movies were safe to remove on my tablet, as well as the input modules for the languages I don't use. if you have replacements, you can also get rid of the calculator, the clock, the default launcher. google currents is also quite safe to remove.

I used an app from the play store called system cleanup which gives a small description of what each app does and also a coloured code it to show if safe or not.
It is free app from xda member inteks(think spelt name correct.)
