Music Mod is great. Comes with CyanogenMod as the default music app and can be downloaded from the market.

mhmm I have that right now but I was wondering if there is any way to get the honeycomb player on my phone?

Hot reboot is a good app too (if you dont like long boot times haha) its a paid app

Titanium Backup!

I like the stock one since it works from the lock screen.
So I ended up going with the new 3rd Sense 1.0 Rom

Hotreboot is good app..
But its pointless now with CM7
My phone honestly takes 1minute or less to turn on

I'm using cm7 and I still find hot reboot jus slightly faster haha

Rockplayer not For slide?

So I tried this beta app out. Played every file possible, or at least tried to, and nothing! It seems to work for everyone else on diff handsets. Anyone else try this?
Redownloaded and installed a few times and nothing.

It may be that the developer has not yet updated the app to support the Mytouch Slide hardware...email the dev and ask the to add support for your device...

I thought about it but the app is a closed beta that got leaked and I'm 95% sure he only speaks chinese and uses translation tools.

i read it was based off processor, magic, dream, hero wont work as they dont support it.
seems to work for most of my movies, have several mpgs and avi files that it played decently, i have had a few problems with it lagging in audio or audio cutting in and out, and only one file refused to play at all(and by that i mean no sound and ~1fps while counter at bottome went as normally would)
I just downloaded it. I'm at work so I only have 2 .avi files to try out but they both worked great and when you move it to another point it starts almost instantly. Such a great app.

Multi touch keyboard

OS the multi touch keyboard port from the Droid 2 usable on the slide? Anyone tried?

That has the Droid X keyboard.
This isn't the multi touch keyboard from the Droid 2. There is a thread on the front page but I've yet to get it working on my phone.

That keyboard works only on the Froyo builds, we will have to wait for now.
You have obviously forgotten that we have froyo builds for our device. I have the team fenix cm6 build installed and still no go.

Did you flash from recovery? That's the only way. It will remove the stock keyboard but its pretty slick. Gonna try putting it on my friend's slide when she wakes up. (Im using the N1).

New Market Apk

I am not sure if this works on the Slide, but you can find the newly designed Market.apk in the Vibrant forums under Themes and Apps. I can not test it right now because my girl friend is at work. She has a Slide, I have a Vibrant. This works wonderful on the Vibrant and I think it should on any other android running device. Hopefully I've made someones day.
SORRY I CAN NOT POST THE APK, BECAUSE I AM USING THE XDA APP ON MY PHONE AND I AM NOT NEAR A COMPUTER.

works on TeamFenix 2.0, installed through Clockwork Recovery
the home screen for the market isnt exactly space efficient, looks really cramped on MDPI (was market always like this?)
EDIT: the landscape ui is pretty cool. cooler than the old one but still not my cup of tea
Flashed via ClockWork using Touchwiz rom and its working flawlessly

Well tried this apk, n didnt work for 4 my phone. But i tried some other market apk form xeria phne section, n tht 1 seemed 2 do the job. Just had 2 clear the cache, and when 2 astro n installed it. Not rooted, 2.1 update 1 tmobile. is wht i have
Also let me get this straight. If u update to the new version, we will only have 15 mins 2 refund our money right. But what if we staty on the old version will it still be the same? Or we would still have 24hrs to refund it.

[REQ] Stock Nexus S 4G turn off flash (like old Tube TV)

I updated, did custom ROM etc, but really miss the cool Old School Tube tv screen power off like it was stock.
How can I get that back?
Tried to search, but not sure what to look for.
Thanks

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?
