My top 5 for Android

  1. Go Launcher EX - I had never even heard of this app until it came preloaded on Calkulin's rom for the E4GT. It replaces touchwiz and allows for a LOT of customization like themes, how big or small the shortcuts and widgets are on your home screen, app drawer customization, lock screen customization and a lot more. And it's free!
  2. Soundhound/Shazam - Both apps can identify songs using the phone's microphone and allow you to add it to your "tag stream" or listen to it on pandora etc. Both have free and paid versions.
  3. Google music - I recently found out that google music allows you to upload 20,000 songs into their "cloud" and then stream all your music on your computer, phone, tablet or pretty much anything that can connect to the internet.
  4. Camera ZOOM FX - Camera app that allows you to use all kinds of effects on your pictures. The only thing I wish it had was the ability to use the volume rocker to take the picture. Currently on sale for $2.99.
  5. AirPush Detector - Ever get those (expletive deleted) ads that pop up in your notification bar? Did you just install 25 apps and not have a clue which one is the offender? AirPush detector sniffs them out and brings you to the uninstall page.

All Android:

  1. Moxier mail - Email client for Outlook. I need to get my work emails when I'm out of the office.
  2. Dropbox - So I can check and edit docs while I'm out of the office or on a different computer.
  3. Bloomberg - Gotta keep up with the financial world and the market to see if I can afford to every retire decades from now.
  4. Pulse - Don't have a tablet yet, so its loaded with news/mag articles to catch up with when I'm stuck shopping with the wife.
  5. Soundhound - god for ID a song you hear and want to know the title.

For me:

  • Browser...that's how I keep up with S4GRU.
  • Facebook...that's how I keep up with S4GRU
  • Twitter...that's how I keep up with S4GRU
  • Tapatalk...that's how I keep up with every other forum that's not S4GRU

Other than S4GRU related stuff...

  • SpeedTest...because I always have to know how the network is performing right this very second.
  • Root Metrics & Sensorly...I've always gotta provide feedback how the network is performing every second
  • CDMA Field Test...I'm a wireless dork, I'm sorry. I want to know what tower I'm connected to in order to better understand the results from the upper two.
  • Tech Site Apps...BGR, CNET and Engadget

Honorable Mentions:

  • Gas Buddy...I'm obsessed with buying gasoline at the cheapest price
  • Urbanspoon...I'm a foodie and a Prime contributor
  • You Version Bible...because I'm one of those Jesus freaks
  • Hanging with Friends and Words with Friends...user name NMherron if you want to send me a game
  • PowerAmp...this app is awesome. Not only is it a music player, but has a pre-amp. Makes my car stereo boom. It also has different equalizer settings that can be saved as individual profiles. I have one for each car I drive, because each stereo sounds different. Love it!

I use speed test, but I will have to check out some of those other apps to get a handle on what my connection is really doing.

I feel like I should add Tapatalk since it has quickly become my most used app lately

I'm actively using both Tapatalk and Forum Runner now. To keep track of any issues or bugs. I have a S4GRU app on my to do list. But I don't think I am going to get to it until at least April.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Spent a lot of time in Westchester this weekend, specifically Yonkers and White Plains. I mapped three AT&T Nokia -> Ericsson conversions. I was super impressed with T-Mobile's macro density and not so much with AT&T's. In Yonkers it seems like T-Mobile macros outnumber AT&T macros 3 to 1 and in White Plains, 2 to 1. Another surprise was the lack of small cells on AT&T in both cities. While Cellmapper shows White Plains having no small cells, I did manage to find one in the Church Street neighborhood. While it's only one, it's an indication to me that T-Mobile intends on expanding n41 density with small cells in the city. On the other hand, in Yonkers T-Mobile has a ton of LTE small cells but none of them have been upgraded to 5G yet as far as I can tell. Crown Castle has been moving super fast in NYC and Long Island to upgrade and install new 5G small cells so I can only assume it's either a permitting or backhaul issue that's stopping them from moving full steam ahead there. — — — — — Came across this cool site in Yonkers with Verizon, T-Mobile, and Dish present.

      Other two sectors finally installed. Hopefully it goes live soon though I know from past experience that these new builds can take weeks and in some cases months to go live.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Which is not surprising given that Verizon’s entire 5G network consists of only C-band and mmWave in most of their coverage area. I’m more surprised that despite having a 5G network that’s almost entirely made up of only two super fast and super high capacity bands, both T-Mobile and AT&T showed higher average speeds on 5G according to OpenSignal. I would’ve expected Verizon to be a close second to T-Mobile but it was a blowout.
