Got an Evo.. What Apps?

[TechBoyJK]

I got an EVO a few weeks ago. I'm curious what APPS you guys think are critical.

I've already got App Killer, AngryBirds, gmail, facebook, Barcode Scanner, FTPclient, Flashlight, PDANet, and a few others.

What do you guys recommend??

Can probably help you better over in the Phones subforum. Angry Birds is a fun time waster though.

2. Shouldn't, but it helps. I finally tried one out after everyone telling me its not needed and battery life has gone up tremendously.

Yea, apparently the newest DROID OS does much better at supressing memory usage by apps running in the background. But it still doesn't kill them outright.

Apps dont do that. Mods do.

how so?

how so?

better music selection, less live versions, more savable stations, better artist discovery, actually has comedy (pandora has ZERO last time i checked ~2 months ago), cashing of up to 25 stations (paid version), no hours listened limit

Agreed, I just recently got hooked on slacker myself. The quality is better too. I feed it through bluetooth to stock car radio and it plays great.
