Software Showcase

Hey everyone! I'm relatively new here and just thought i might start up a thread in which we can all post our software configurations on our Phones (Kaiser/TyTnII/Tilt/etc.). I'd really like to know what applications you all use and which ones you would recommend. Well I'll be the first to go .
FTouchFlo 1.4.1 (I really like this nifty little thing, gives you the ability to call up your Cube by a swipe of the finger)
SCLPC++ 0.051 (This is great for when you only have one hand free and need to quickly call someone or run an app, I use SCLPC++ Configurator along with it)
VTap Video (Great free Mobile video streaming program)
Microsoft LiveSearch (Excellent to find out..anything lol)
GoogleMaps Mobile (Great if you want a free gps navigator, has worked real good for me so far along with LiveSearch)
JBed3D (How many of you can resist a little 3d gaming on the go?)
PHM RegEdit (Nifty little free registry editor)
TCPMP + FlashVideoBundle (Great if you want to stream video or audio from websites, works great with YTPocket.com)
Bejeweled 2, Madden NFL, Tradewinds 2 (Some great games to play on the go imho)
MobiTV (Nice program for watching TV on your mobile)
Now to ask for a few recommendations, I need a good Large Digital Clock for my Today screen and an advanced task manager. Besides those i really would like to know any and all software everyone uses on their phones .

Everything I have listed in my signature is what I can't live without.

Pocket Controller Pro sounds Dirty.
Oh Oh do we get name tags and special fun markers? I call dibs on reb and blue first. Oh and I think it would be super sweet if we were all wearing matching shirts.
I couldn't like without Google Maps (yeah I download my maps, I'm not a cheap @#[email protected]#d) and TCPMP for my youtube/eskimotube lovin. Oh and lets not forget SiriusWM5 .. Gotta hear that Howard Stern.
BaBaBooie BaBaBooie

This is a good free digital clock for your home screen. Uses a pittance of memory as well.

Oh man with sirius wm5 thing makes my days fly by at work.
I dont have all the revision numbers infront of me.
Dopewars, pocket irc, googlemaps, sirius, morphware emulator (millipede 2fingafun), sPd, ifonz, ereader, tcpmp, yahoo go 2.0, illum listpro, spybot.

Market and non market apps (I need your submissions!!) [Updated 8/31/10]

The thread is far from final. I still have a few things I would like to work out design wise, but its finished enough to be posted.
The Pimp My Captivate thread exists, but the OP has admitted to no longer having access. Not only is a thread far easier to update, but it is also more user friendly in my opinion. If you’re just getting your phone I suggest checking out that thread.
This is my first time doing one of these, so any suggestions on arrangement would be appreciated. I'm modeling this off of the one in the Rhodium forum (skyler17 and this is the thread).
I plan on updating the post, but I'm not installing every application on my phone to provide information on it. When you suggest an addition, please provide a few words about the app and why you think its notable and any requirements or known incompatibilities the app has (requires root, another application is needed, Vibrant vs. Captivate, etc). For example:
moTweets: Easily now my favorite Twitter client. Free version w/ some ads and a paid version for $3.99 without ads. Twitterers unite! (freeware)

QR codes may get added later, but not right now.
This first batch of apps came from the pimp my captivate pdf. Not all of them are here since I do think there is good information in the pdf, and you should read it.

I did a search for a master games thread but found nothing so I thought I would reply here. I just picked mine up yesterday and have been looking for some games for it. Besides Angry Birds ive found that Krazy Kart v1.2.7 works perfectly (full screen, looks great!) with the touch screen controls, but tilt controls are way off. Anyone know of any others that work? I wanted to buy NOVA HD but without a phone number on the Gameloft website it seems not possible.

Are you saying that angry birds does work? When I did a market fix it finally showed up but failed install on me. Is that full screen?

Both Angry Birds and Angry Birds seasons work on mine, running TNT-Lite 2.2.1.

Angry Birds and Pocket God both work fullscreen. Pocket God starts upside down, but just have to flip the tab over. Screen looks better from that side anyways

It wasn't working for me before, but as of 5 minutes ago I got it working on VEGAn

I now have
Working
Raging Thunder 2
Hawx 3.2.8
Not working
Asphalt5 v3.2.2 (not full screena dn has has the 90 degree accelerator issue)

Here are a couple more that work:
Tank Recon 3D
Touch Racing Nitro
Archer
Radiant HD

Ok here is a complete list for what I have working and installed as of 12-13-10

BUKA HD and Radiant HD work AWESOME.
Hi res graphics, super smooth (like 60fps+)

Pool Break Pro works well, a few minor graphical glitches.
Is there a fix for the accelerometer being off 90 degrees on some games? I'm still running stock, rooted.

Hmm... It "works" for me, but doesn't draw correctly. The tower build stacks are drawn in the middle of the playfield, making it somewhat difficult to play.
Are you seeing something different? Oh, btw, I'm running VeganB3.

I am seeing no problems on it. I'm running TNT 2.02 (I need to update, but I need to find time, LOL)

did anyone get Live Holdem to work in fullscreen?

Reckless Racing works well.
PacMan Championship Edition works and the controls aren't as awful as on a small screen.

games:
abduction
barrr
air control
pocket legends
cruzade of destiny
gem miner
space phisics
apps:
documents to go
thinking space
facebook
imo
speed test
opera mini

and i wrote this from my opera mini

Thread stuck.

I have Heavy Gunner working for me, and it looks and plays awesome. Very smooth effects and great sound.
As far as apps go I'm testing more as I go, but Direct Tv and and DJ Studio both work as well.
I will post more working ones as I go.

Essential GTab Apps and Games

I thought it would be nice to compile a list of essential (WORKING) Apps and Games that a potential Gtab owner would want.
I see a lot of Angry Birds, Documents To Go, and Google Apps, but what are the other great tablet compatible apps out there?

Search, I created a thread on games a few days ago, in this forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855838

Fox News Radio app. Available from the market.

The emulators I've tried works...
TigerMame, psxdroid, and snesoid works. The others probably work too.
Rev3remote

I would recommend the XDA forum app. Its essential to any would be hacked Gtab owner.

My list includes...
Zeam - Great launcher
Fancy Widgets - Free weather/clock widget
TV Guide Mobile - See what's on TV and set reminders
TV.com - Decent TV viewing app
Dolphin Browser HD - Great browser. Set it to "Desktop" mode. No need to be mobile on the GTab
Google Books - My wife is using this...she loves it so far.
BuzzBox - Great RSS reader. I use it as a widget to show the latest news stories.
Fox News - 'nuff said....
Our Groceries - Shopping list sharing. Used on my Moto Droid, my wifes BB and the GTab. Seriously...we make less trips to the store now for those things you always seem to forget...
Mobile Andrio - Mario Brothers emulator. My 4yo won't leave this game alone. Plays it on the GTab even though he has it on the DS and Wii. Personally...I don't get it. The DS and Wii are made for this but at least it works on the GTab
XDA - Of course I have this!
Currently experimenting with...
doubleTwist
Yahoo Messenger + Video Add-on
Videos (movies) - Putting our movie collection on the GTab.

A good way of sharing apps is to create a public list on AppBrain.
And on that note; if you're not using AppBrain, you should be.

What Are Your 20 Most Used Apps & Games?

Everyone has a top five... but who doesnt use a messenger, an email, a calendar, a browser, and or a game.
I want to know the top 25 apps and games you use on your Thunderbolt weekly. Apps..meaning you installed them into your phone, they didn't come stock. IE: Gmail, gtalk

I think 20-25 is a bit steep. While I am sure I am not in the majority, I only have 15 installed apps that i've d/l.
maybe you should change it to top 5, because it's an easy number to reach.
