Asurion address book out! - G1 Apps and Games

Write Asurion in Market and download the address book and the mix ins you want to get installed...
Amazing app, let's see how it develops...

im gonna bumb this cause this app is pretty cool. It connects all your contacts with facebook and twitter or w/e social network u use. It takes a couple min to setup and sync all your contacts though. I liked the notifications that it gave you for each contact. I did find it a little slow and the interface isnt really apealing. All in all, its pretty good just needs work on the interface and on the speed as well...

Havin some difficulty figuring out how to set up different notifications.
Pictures for contacts dont update with the FB page.
Ugly UI.
But to be honest the FB portion is better than the FB app. Its worth it for that alone. Alot of functionality seemingly. Absolutely needs to be streamlined.

still too laggy for daily use. it froze my phone for a good 4 minutes.

I messed with it a little. Seemed to be really slow on my G1 with CM 4.1.999.
My personal faveorite contacts app is still StarContact - I just wish they'd update it... I'd at least like to see contact photos. I hate it when good apps go abandoned.

As it stands it certainly isnt an Addybook replacement by any means.
I do hope they stick with it.

This is easily replacing my phonebook. I love it! I don't know what these other people are talking about with lag, but on cyan 4.2.2 it is phenomenal! I am blown away by it and am so glad something similar to voxmobiles upcoming effort has come out.

i'd love to try it out, unfortunately it seems it's not yet available here in germany - at least not for me
if someone could pass it on to it'd be much appreciated
cheers

anyone have a direct link? I can't find it in the market. Thanks!

Yeah I cant find it either.

I read in one of the market comments that it doesn't sync with Google, is that true?

cant find this in the market i found the you tube and speed dialer but no address book. anyone have a link?

Those of you who can't find it, where do you live. My buddy from Canada couldn't find it either. Might be a regional issue but I'm not sure.

Hey man get market enabler, it free from the market. Then you can download from other regions

Need screenshots.

Also have T-Mobile USA and found it. Search for Asurion.
It's a great app, but I found it has issues with the MixIn settings. It still gives notifications even though I disable them. It appears other people have issues with the settings as well that want to change update intervals so they don't use so much data. Keep in mind this is still in beta. Can't wait for an update.

can't find it. I have t-mobile USA. searched asurion and only the speed dialer and you tube mix in shows up. I'm running xrom if that helps. even if i try getting the link straight form the website, it doesn't show up. weird.

New Bing

Is the new Bing working for anyone. I install it and when it opens its still the old version. I don't know whats going on.

nope, not on the Imagio. There is a thread open in Development & Hacking > Windows Mobile Application and Games.
Seems like its not working for a lot of people yet.
Bing works fine on my Imagio. That said, yesterday Bing had an outage...so you may have experienced that.
There is a known issue on the Bing app where it will only pick the first address if your contact has multiple addresses.
Hope this helps,

So you have the new Bing with the picture background working?

the new bing sucks.
No...didn't realize they actually released a new update. And the new update states that "you're phone is not currently supported." Personally, as one of the few new WM6.5 phones, I am stunned that it isn't supported.

Install it to see what it looks like then uninstall it and reinstall the old version. The new version is horrible and looks like a Beta 1 version of the last version. It's so unusable that it's not worth installing.
not installing
I tried to do the udpate and Bing says cannot recognize the phone (or some similiar message) and then launches the browser and lets me download bing.cab. i tried to run bing.cab and it says cannot install in this phone.
Are you on Verizon? Search a bit, it is well known that Verizon's phones are not letting the new Bing install. Not just the Imagio, but ALL Verizon phones.
Verizon and Bing issues
Hey bud, you're right. It appears that others on the Verizon network are having issues with the new Bing upload. That said, it appears that the updates to Bing aren't being regarded very highly. So maybe it's for the best at the moment.

Missing Apps in Market after update to FroYo

So I updated to FroYo manually thanks to the methods posted here. I've nearly reinstalled all my apps with the exclusion of one; Square. I cannot find it in the market and thought maybe the dev pulled it, but it shows up in 2.1 and web-based market browsers, just not in 2.2. Anyone else experiencing this? Can I just force the apk onto the phone somehow?

Same here.. seems like the copy protected apps are having problems.
This is not root or something else regarded - everyone has these issues.
Regards
Great to hear I'm not alone, but being an early adopter can sometimes blow (in the BAD way) =\
Is this being discussed in another thread? I did a search prior to posting and came up empty
EDIT: Mods, thanks for moving this to the appropriate forum. I've seen mention of this issue appear in various threads, though no thread of it's own. Will wait for devs to catch up with 2.2
I reported the same problem on modaco last night... I'm sure google will enable de protected apps this week, just a slight oversight on their side.
i had same problem, just put them apk on your sd card and install it. if it is being a stubborn app like a certain few just copy/paste or move them to data/private-app and install from in there. should take care of it 4 u.
Same problem here (Tapatalk Pro and Extended Controls missing).
when you create an app you can set a max api level to support, or not.
applications that have that set won't show on newer devices.
exzeus, square, and a few others seem to have done it...
give them about a month or so and you should see them come around.

My App ICE Donate wasn't found either.. I removed the copy protection until Froyo is officially listed - it can be found and downloaded again
I'm missing cachemate, I only see the free version and I've check the box for all sources for apps. astro will not install from my backups

Having the same issue here. Wife's N1 can't find WeatherBug Elite, or the Helix Launcher in the market. Even after reboot.
Same. Paul actually fixes it in his roms by changing the Rom fingerprint. Some of the unofficial nexus updates he integrated did the same thing to protected apps. Once fingerprint was changed, it seemed to have done the magic. I'm guessing that he will do the same next week for froyo.
Same here my paid app wont show up which means I may be losing sales so I'm pissed right now
Yeah, so no MLB app at the moment... which makes me unhappy.
Any word on an official response from Google yet on this issue?

Fancy widget?

Anybody have the apk for fancy widget?
Yes, I do. I'm not at home right now, and I'm not sure when I will be home. I'm on a short vacation and the apk file is on my desktop computer at home. I found it on the internet if you want to look for it, or you can wait until I get back home (which will be Monday morning--I think).
I tried searching for it on google, but I think all of sites were forced to take it down due to HTC's C&D.
I love the look of Fancy Widget, but I'm constantly having a problem with the time not updating. The task is not being killed since it's on my task killer's ignore list. It seems to happen at random times...sometimes while the phone is in standby, other times while in use. Is there a solution for this?

It's funny you say that because BW has always worked perfectly for me, and for that reason I switched back to it. That's fine with me because I just saw a skin I really like, and I e-mailed the dev to see if he could modify it slightly. He cooperated and now BW looks very very close to the Sense look (other than the weather icon being on the right rather than centered).
This is the best HTC Sense-like clock. It looks even better than Weather Widget with h7c skin, but has this strange update issue, when I have to wait sometimes for clock to update.
BTW It shows us how Market is NOT open and without control . It's better than AppStore and we can always use *.apk, but it's sad that if some app isn't good for hTC for example, they simply delete it.
It wasn't deleted, HTC asked the developer to take it down I beleive. It was taken down by their choice from what I read, and probably a good idea. It was so similar to the HTC one, I'm sure they have rights on it

The Market never claimed to be open or without control, its just a heck of a lot less demanding/strict than the app store... The underlying code for Android is open but anything that manufacturers or devs add to the code itself (IE: Sense UI, Motoblur etc...) along with the apps on the market, are proprietary and therefore NOT open (unless otherwise stated).

Should say in manifest (request privileges) if it can make phone calls -- which this app only asks for GPS & Internet access.

[Q] Which email program do you use? (gmail users)

Which email program do you use? Do you use the gmail app, the email app, or a separate application?
I personally prefer the look and functionality of the email app, but the quickness of the gmail app and it's push gmail notifications.
anyone else?
Personally, I don't care for either of the email apps on the phone. I use K9 for everything.

k9 you say. i'll look into that.
Don't use the version that's in the Android Market. It's actually an older version. If you search for it on Google, you can get the code.google.com page with the latest version and then Sideload it onto your phone. I believe the latest is 3.102.
Edit: I stand corrected, it's now 3.105

Heh, I already had it downloaded before i read this, but I put the newest version on like you said and the one issue I had is fixed already.
On the market version, it wasn't going directly to my inbox. on the 3.105 it does. I really like this app. thanks for the suggestion.
Anytime
It seems to fill in the voids left by the default Email app that comes with the phone.
I use mail droid but it's still in beta, I can't get links to open the browser sometimes. It does supposedly work with microsoft exchange servers. I'll look into k9

When i tried K9 a month ago, it was agonizingly slow - attributed to the phone lag by most.
Are you guys seeing the lag, or do you have the lag fix installed? Maybe K9 changed something?
Also, have they added real PUSH/Sync yet for Gmail and Exchange or are they still polling and doing WebDav stuff?
Do you have a link for it or what you actually searched for in google, I can not seem to find it.
thanks!

I switched from using the Gmail and Email apps to K-9. So far I prefer it because of the options and the integrated inbox w/ push for my gmail account.

Thanks, I was thinking it was a google product and was searching for the wrong thing. Just installed it and looks pretty good so far.

Unfortunately, it's still not real push yet, but the app itself does seem to be pretty fast now. But I have it poll every 2 hours and that works fine for me.
Edit: They also seem to be churning out lots of bug fixes and releasing the updated version pretty fast. It went from 3105 to 3107 as of 8 hours prior to this edit.
I have tried quite a few as the stock left a lot to be desired. I used Maildroid,while good, it was very slow for me. I tried Seven until I noticed it sent an international mms everytime you added an account and doesn't do HTML emails. Now I'm down to K-9 which I like, just visually unappealing.
I guess its just trial and error until you find features you like.
After reading this thread I downloaded k9 and I do agree its better than maildroid. It gives the notification faster (i have both running right now) and the universal mailbox is icing on the cake. Thanks guys!

I honestly don't love any mail client. I tried K9, but it is terribly ugly and more importantly than that, it doesn't do pinch zoom smoothly at all. The samsung app is very attractive looking, but its slow as hell and doesn't do push for gmail. Ultimately, I am currently sticking with the gmail app. Since no other app does what I want anyway, I figure why not use the fastest one? With push for gmail and faster performance, I'll switch back to the stock samsung app...maybe in a new version? I guess we'll see...
If only the Gmail app would let you select/copy text from the messages...

I never knew that, then again, never tried to do it.
And for those who say K9 isn't very visually appealing, if it works, and does what you need when you need it to, then I can't see a reason to complain. You could say the same about a car, if it's your only choice, and it gets you from point A to point B in one piece and on time, you take it.
I dunno man, I bought a mercedes cause I like the comfort, it's stylish, and because I simply won't be caught driving a hyundai. Having said that, I just installed K9 and it's pretty ugly, more like driving a kia I suppose. Uninstalling now. Stock gmail app for me it is!

My Market fix

There are several posts here for fixes to get the full Market and I'm one of the unfortunate that none of these fixes work for me. Different roms, countless restarts and FC never worked. I was talking to a friend and he told me to download market enabler. Further digging pointed to me MarketAccess - an updated version without the ads. From what I've heard, Android Market will limit what you can 'see' depending on the service/carrier you have with your cell phone. And since we're on a tablet, that may be why some of us are SOL.
Market Access will trick Android Market into thinking you have a cell phone carrier with your tablet. For example, I chose T-mobile for the U.S. and I now have Kindle and Nook; two apps I couldn't download before.
I'm going to continue testing this and see what else I can get. For now, those were the two I couldn't see and I now have them installed through the Market.
You can find MarketAccess be googling... yes, Market Access. The site should be amip.tools (can't post links yet)
Is this what your talking about?
http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/android/marketaccess
Are you sure this is safe and legal?
That's it. I didn't see anything that would make this illegal. Do you?

Reggie, Did you try different carriers when running the app? Some apps may be specific to the cell phone service.
Which apps are you looking for anyway?
Yeah this fix didn't really work for me either. Honestly if I need an app badly enough and its not showing I just download to my phone back it up to my dropbox app folder and sideload it right from dropbox on mt g-tab. Works great for me and I have a backup or the app also.

Hi,
The webpage says:
"MarketAccess, as well as MarketEnabler requires root available on the device. It means than you need to unlock your phone and install the su application which will manage permissions for other apps that want to get root on the device. Google for details."
Jim
I tried this to look for a specific app. Upon further inspection I don't see anything in there using this that wasn't in there using the Market Fix. Am I missing something? For what its worth, I'm looking for Colorize Widgets.
Thanks for your reply Jim. I must have misunderstood. I thought ecatapano's fix avoided using MarketAccess and MarketEnabler by accessing and "drop boxing" apks from an Android phone then sideloading them to the g-tab through drop box. I just don't know how to get the apks from the Droid to the drop box.

I've seen mention of using Astro file manager to backup, which I guess puts the APK on sdcard, then you have to have dropbox installed on your Droid, and you can then send the APK to dropbox.

I installed the market enabler,or whatever its called. I defaulted to t mobile as my carrier. I'm not certain what you are supposed to do for setup after that. So I went back into Market and found Colorize Widgets. I'm not convinced market enabler had any influence though. Any feedback on using market enabler is appreciated.
