Reccomended Applications For Your Captivate!

HTC Sense UI Weather Widget Duplicate(With Animations!)


Here's a nice video on how to get it looking exactly like the Sense UI Widget.

Weather & Clock Widget On Android 2.2

And the link to it in the android marketplace can't be given other than this:

Apparently they don't have a search feature in the PC version of the android market

But yeah, I haven't USED the app, but I'm probably going to get it as soon as I get my phone.

Fractal Tap:  Drag your finger across the screen, and thin colored streaks will appear...then they "grow" looking like ice/crystal patterning.  Default color patterning is combo red/blue/hot pink/yellow/lime green.  You can save your creations, change the speed of growth/background color/fractal color.

Ringdroid:  Haven't used it, but grabbed it at the suggestion of someone here on the forums.  Allows you to "clip"a song on your phone and make a ringtone from it.

AutoKiller:  Mean little buggers run in the background on the phone and eat up memory/resources.  They run in the background even if you haven't touched the app -- use this to KILL THEM!!!! KILLEM ALL!!!!!

I am sure there are some that I am over looking but hey it is a start.

i dont get those anti virus programs do we have viruses for our phones? because i hear mixed reviews about if we do or dont

Handcent - Nice alternative to the default SMS app.  Heavily customizable.  Each contact could have their own font, colors, background, sound etc.

Trillian - Better multi IM messaging app.  You're going to have to use the Sideload Wonder Machine for this as its still in beta.

Dolphin Browser HD - Better than the default browser.

Movienight - Nice app for planning dates, suggests things to do in your area movies, clubs, restaurants, etc

Settings Profiles - For creating different profiles by location etc.  I know the HTC phones on the Tmobil network have this ability
