Hi guys
I just wondered what you're must haves for the BlueAngel are (software,hardware, games ans so on).
I thought this could be usefull for new users of a BlueAngel like I am.
I hope to get lots of replies.... :wink:
Don't forget a short description...
All new users are going to be very thankfull (or at least I'm going to be...)
you could for first install sprite backup and sprite monitor. very useful for monitoring battery usage and memory usage. This also helps backup issues.
also, mine did not have a microsoft reader installed when I bought it so I installed one. useful if you're for ebooks.
cheers!

Talking about must-haves for the Blue Angel on the hardware side, I've got a Krusell leather case which is more convinient to use than the supplied one. It's a flip open one, like the one supplied with the XDA 2i. I've got a Brando screen protector, and got one spare too, to protect the screen. Further, I bought a sync + charge cable from sfplanet.com, which I can carry to office etc., rather than the cradle which I keep docked to my home PC.
Must haves
I like PocketNav. Free, smaller, faster than other Today screen "closer" programs.

Instant Messaging Program
Do y'all know if anything in particular conflicts with Agile Messenger on a Blue Angel? I have an O2 version, with the active stuff turned off, and Agile Messenger keeps crashing it!!!
If it is Agile Messenger and not the cause of some other program, could you please suggest another multi-IM client?
Thanks!
Hey guys,
I am getting my Kaiser on friday. So i am prepping all cabs, tweaks, themes, tomom to immideatelly load on it -=).
However, this is my first PDA and i am curious what you guys consider (mutually) as being the top applications. I dont care if i have to pay for them
My current ideas:
Keyboard: http://cootek.com/
Player : Pocket Player for Pocket PC http://store.conduits.com/pocpcsof.html
Will it run youtube and other related sites?
Should i go with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337469 instead
Windows Tools: SPB
Theme(Desktop) : WisBar Advance Desktop 3.
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10348&highlight=blue
What IM messager should i get ( i dont want to pay per/message)
What is the ideal internet browser?
Any other suggestions/recomendations.. are Greatly appreciated

I like Agile messenger the best but that is just my preference. I think it really depends on what IM account are you usiing, yahoo, msn, aol, etc.
For internet browser I would use Opera Mini until Opera 9.0 comes out then I have a feeling it is going to be the best. IE actually does a lot better than it did in WM5, you can get add on that allows multiple browser windows in IE.
Agile Messenger is nice, but slowed my Tilt down to a crawl. I put Palringo on and absolutely love it. I also enjoy the Java-based Opera Mini - it just looks nicer than Opera 8.65. Here's hoping they come out with a browser like the iPhone - I sure do miss their Safari browser and the simplicity of it all.
thats what Opera 9.0 will be like from reading the reviews, similar to safari on iPhone

Yes, me too. I wonder if it will be as worthwhile though with the smaller screen.

Go with TCPMP and flash bundle for Youtube.
PocketCM Keyboard and PocketCM from here it is a cool contacts and threded SMS app.
For file management and reg editting and browsing shares on a LAN I use Total Commander version 2.5beta3.
For web browsing try OperaMini4 beta2 it blows PIE out of the water.
For IM I use Windows live for Windows Mobile from the cab in the stickied thread. This version lets you choose if you want to merge Live/MSN contacts with your Outlook default contacts.
MS Voice Command should be on every device as standard but it is $$$ only unless you look in the darker corners of the web.
I work in a corporate environment.
I absolutely install TodayAgenda on every ROM.
http://tiews.info/index.php?show=software/todayagenda
HTC Home is a must now as well
MS VoiceCommand 1.6
Those are the main programs I must have.
My list:
MS Voice Command 1.6
Resco Explorer
DinarSoft MemMaid
Pocket Mechanic
PHM Pocket PC Power Toys
PocketRAR
vxUtil
vxIPConfig
VisualGPS or Holux GPSViewer
Nav software (I use Route 66)
My list:
MS Voice Command (thought I'd change to Voice Signal in a heartbeat if I could)
SPB Pocket Plus (new version's even better)
SPB Mobile Shell
SPB Phone Suite
SPB Backup
Route 66
AvantGo Client
Opera Mini
vxUtil
PocketCM Keyboard
I'd throw Google Maps in there, but that'd be 11.
Edit - how in the heck I left AgendaOne off the list is beyond me. But that'd bump vxUtil off the list for me.

This is a great find!
My list...at least right now...
1. Fann Software's DTSysView Pro - gets you to your today screen w/ 1 touch
2. phoneAlarm by PocketMax - manages profiles and gives you a pop-up task manager - great for 1-handed operation
3. phonepadvibrate - give tactile feedback when you are dialing - I need that when I am driving and dialling
4. Pocket Informant (PIM, I use for Agenda management)
5. iLauncher
6. Pocket Breeze
7. Opera
8. SmartRSS
9. TCPMP+Flash Bundle
10. MemMaid - yes, even on the Kaiser

Can you post phonepadvibrate here? I used it on my Hermes, but that file can for some reason not be installed on my Kaiser. Thanks in advance.
BTW I found the vibrate on my Hermes lagging and slow sometimes, resulting in multiple keypresses due to my impatience. Is it faster on the Kaiser?
edit: Can iLauncher work with SPB Diary and SPB Weather, integrating them into one tab, like PocketPlus does? Does iLauncher support multiple rows of icons? In PocketPlus, it all has to fit in one row, making it impossible to use large icons on my 11 tabs (yes, I know, I am a bit anal) and the little icons are hard to hit with my thumb.
My list:
1. TomTom Navigator
2. PHM regedit
3. Total Commander
4. GPSViewer
5. Spb PocketPLus
6. SPB Weather
7. SPB Diary
8. SPB ToPlay
9. KaiserTweak
10. TCPMP
1-Opera Mini
2-Kaiser Notifications
3- PocketCM Keyboard
4- Google Maps
5- HTC Home customizer
Soon to add SPB Mobile Shell / Phone Suite/ PLus / Diary
TomTom 6
Google Maps
Memory Map 5
Live Search
Today Agenda
Windows Live 10.6.33.0600 (thank you)
Flash Video Bundle
TCPMP
MH Conversions
GPS Dash - removed - can't get it to talk to internal GPS
Also got Opera Mini 4 beta
What is this " BluOrb MobileOS (WAD Skin) BETA" ??
Is this advisable to install in Kaiser?

If you have no idea what it is I would advise not putting it on, in fact why would you want to?

1-Calc pro is coming out with one. The current calc they have, 1-Calc, has a custom tab that maybe modifiable to do Stock options and margins.
