Your Apps that you would show people that are interested in your phone..

I just got mine and have a good amount so far and always looking for more..

Here are mine so far.......

Floating images..

I love the way it lays the pictures as if they were scattered on a coffee table, and as it "floats" by you can click a picture to see it bigger..

Totally cool

Instant Heartrate

Just like it says, it accurately (The few times I checked) checks your heart rate by "lightly" putting your finger on the camera lens.. It was accurate each and every time I compared it to my real HB monitor.

Barcode Scanner/google shopper

Both do about the same thing, only google shopper will scan image as well as bar code, kinda cool.

Those are some of the many I have tried, but I am sure there are more.

So what are your go to apps to show off with?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] TheBiles:
The "Pure" widgets. Especially to iPhone owners.

I usually end up pulling out my ipod touch to show wicked apps/games.

I get "cant you do that stuff with your EVO?"

My answer is, was and continues to be... "uhm... no"
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] phatmanxxl:
Can your iPhone/iPod do this?....open up MusicJunk3 and start downloading mp3's for free, then open up gmob and download some pirated apps, browse a few YouTube pages all at the same time....they're like, oh wow FLASH! Also go into recovery and flash a font on a whim, then a theme, flash it all back to normal again...can your iPhone do that? Um well no...ok then. Hey what movie should I download for you, I have a torrent client and I dont need to worry about data caps...Iron Man 2? Ok good call! Well watch it on my EVO since it has a bigger brighter screen. Video games? I have a few, but lets grab a 12 pack and go to my place and play some Halo Reach on my 53'' screen.

I was showing off my EVO to my dad, Google nav in satellite view and the sky maps and he was pretty impressed, but he's not as much of a phone geek as I am. My mama is too attached to Blackberry to care lol

Hey, hows the slingbox work on 3g? Of course using SD, but does it work "ok" for the most part?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] gabemeyers:
well its not out just yet but if your savy enough you'll find a way to get it

vlingo. it takes speach recognition to an entirely new level

put it in car mode and it waits for you to say the catch phrase its waiting for then

it pops on and awaits your command, call, text, nav, search

blows me away at how accurate it is

this is what we all thought speach rec software was going to be, cant wait till its finished

for me currently, when in bluetooth mode, if i turn bluetooth device off before

killing bt on my evo it will force a restart

SlingPlayer app works great on 3G. I use it all the time, and I even stream the HD version of channels from my DirecTV box. As a matter of fact, I'm using it right now to catch up on SportsCenter while I'm at work since I missed it last night. I didn't pay $30 for it, though. It is the only paid app I have which I didn't actually pay for. Slingbox wants to charge you $300 for a Slingbox and then another $30 for an app to be able to use it? That is ridiculous. That app should be offered for free since only people who have purchased their product are the ones who can use it. When I saw the vendor for the app was "Sling Media, Inc.", I went straight to Google and searched for the .apk file. As if the Slingbox wasn't overpriced already.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] makskylan:

Considering that you're rooted, it's fair to use a jailbroken iPhone for comparison and the answer to all your questions is yes - the iPhone can do all that also. They can also switch themes on a whim without a full reboot. They even have an implementation of Flash called frash.

Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rebosxl:
Yea I thought it was common knowledge that jailbroken iPhone's can use flash lol. I'm with with you android guys 100% I really am but i'm jumping ship soon as I can and getting a winmo7 phone (soon as it gets the nand unlock and stuff like clockwork mod). Think about it...a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch CAN run android so it basically destroys any android device simply because it can run android AND another top phone OS (can't deny that it is). Plus if you ever used a htc hd2 (I recently got one to feed my flashing addiction..dont u judge ME >_<!), it runs just about ALL of the various versions of android quite better than my EVO (every rom is just so incredibly fast and smooth its RIDICULOUS..benchmark wise its the same but the overall feel is like i'm dual core compared to the EVO)

At the end of the day Android phones can't run a closed source OS (not that I know of). So a phone like a HTC HD7 can run winmo7, have access to all its features,apps and games as well as the goodies that comes with future custom roms PLUS will be able to (if everything goes well) run any form of android. So yea..any new android phone will just get pwn'd in terms of maximum potential compared to a (htc) winmo7 device or even a iphone.

thanks to 3g/4g i can be a walking webserver

KWS (web/http server)

PAW Server pretty cool...accessing the phone as well. webdav drives included (i think so anyway)

Websharing - pretty damn cool. allows access to your phone... and lets you play vids/ and audio via browser should you need to listen to it via that way. I even let a friend upload a cd that i couldnt find from my collection....blew him away cuz he was on the other side of the country

love vlingo friends are always impressed by it reading out things...or the new feature of 'hey vlingo, what is the 22nd president" and how it responds... totally bad ass

Tasker - fully automation of my phone... period. Probably one of the most underrated apps.

I show them some of the phone finding apps as well, I.E. Wheres my droid

Subsonic i have terabytes ontop of terabytes of media. im a walking media player thanks to it [subsonic collab'd with my collection]

NFL mobile Walked into 5 guys on a sunday to take a break from all the errands i had to run and a dude on a laptop was trying to get game updates... he asked me what game i was watching...it kinda hurt his feelings when i said "all of them; enter the redzone" lmao

Tricorder is pretty cool too! detects all kinda signals and such

Soundhound find any song with only 4 seconds of playing it. fkn awesome period.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] goodelyfe:
lies eh? you musta been an apple boy too long. they seem to have dumbed ya down. experiment with your phone some ;) think out the box... i know it may be hard being used to apple products and all

i see phatman below got you schooled a lil bit

yea phatman i gotta admit, it is pretty nice to be able to download a new album/mixtape whenever it is released. Swarm is one nice piece of software.

TorrentFU is my baby too. I use it to control torrents on my home server as well. bad ass

Coupled with that and my dropbox.... my friends that have androids even are blown away by the stuff the phone can do...not exclusive to the phone, but moreso the OS. They be like 'damn how you do that'

All mind you downloading and uploading it in under 2hours is pretty bad ass.

last but not least, lets not forget those iphone beggers to turn on our hotspot/wifi tether for them to get our 4g speeds lol and get a taste of the fast life....

man im starting to think people who buy an iphone dont know any better or just plain out remedial.

then dont you love their 'argument' when they lose a battle of what their phone can and cant do? "Oh, i dont need my phone to do all that anyway" LMAO my response: 'so you spend 300 bucks on a brick? why not just go back to the throwback OG motorola phone' lol they just walk away

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] magicriggs:
iPhone can't do this...flash custom roms and kernels. iPhone 4 doesn't even know what its processing speed is at?! If I wanted to replace a native app on the phone say a better camera app, I would have to have multiple camera apps, I can't delete them. I can't delete factory apps on iPhone! Because when you do get a software update you get those apps back, and you have to go thru the process again. I understand how it was I had a jailbroken phone I was on 3.1.2 for the longest time and everyone else was a higher firmware because I didn't want to redo everything. And I hate itunes so much it constantly wants to sync up with everything I connect to my computer makes me wanna microwave my data cable, pisses me off! And I also like being able to use my phone as a disk drive, drag and drop in a box is so much easier then having to use funbox. Also another big thing when we root/jailbreak our warranty is not voided. Many times have I sent in a rooted phone and got it approved. Go to an Apple store and try to get a warranty, they'll freaking integrate you. Also if we want to downgrade firmware on a phone we don't have to go thru itunes stupid world and OTW hold down multiple buttons on the keypad only to get an error .... because Apple signs off on the latest firmware.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fastfed:
Iphones are cool.. My dad has an Ipad, and for what it is its great...

Bottom line, the only clear winner IMO is android/EVO.

Why, because its on multiple carriers and not stuck with just 1, or 2 in a couple months..

But the real clear winner being the EVO is simply because I can change out my battery and add or take away memory..

Nothing beats being able to have a 16-32 gig card filled with great movies, stepping onto a plane and being able to watch, not 2 movies but 4.. Just because I have extra batteries!

That IMO is a win bigger than anything else..

Solo (i can play guitar on my phone)

Wireless Tether (need wifi? i'll hook you up)

Terminal Emulator (for both phone's OS and connecting to my servers)

Vlingo/Google Voice search (i have KITT in my phone!)

Not to **** on your parade, but as it's been pointed out, an Iphone can do any of that. The jailbroken Iphone has actually caught up a decent amount with this generation and the difference isn't what it was 1-2 years ago (android phones were also much rarer then so it was more common to have a bunch of people asking what "crazy phone" you have.

For me, the real show-off is the accumulative polished product...having a sleek minimalist setup with widgets - having a sexy live background (Galactic Core!) with widgets so you can scroll across checking out facebook, twitter, texting, and adjusting your media player all from your background (as opposed to having to launch and then back-out of each app) makes most of my iphone friends pink...

I'm not even a show-offy person but when you whip something out like that and do in 5 seconds what takes a few minutes on the Iphone, I have to admit I do enjoy it.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] goodelyfe:
Difference is though, for flash and other things iphone HAVE TO BE jailbroken.

A stock android device DOES way more. Im not even sure why y'all mentioned or tried to make it even by bringing up a 'jail broke' iphone, most of these things (that sets androids apart) don't even need root, mainly just the tether....
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] rugedraw:
Oh, I forgot to mentioned in my other post that my Torque app is GREAT for showing off, too. I purchased the Bluetooth OBDII adapter on eBay for $20 shipped, and now I can read and delete diagnostics codes that cause your check engine light to turn on. I can mate the phone to any car and data log engine data from boost to fuel pressure; from engine load to intake manifold temperature.....it's pretty damn cool.

Not to mention, it serves as an accelerometer that can measure g-forces while accelerating, braking and cornering and can calculate 0-60 and 1/4 mile times & speed. The phone and Bluetooth adapter works on ANY car built from late 1995 and up that has an OBDII port.

One of my favorite apps, but I'm a car junkie so a lot of you guys may be biased towards it. However, to show off what your phone can do, it is good to have.

That one doesn't work as the phone number expired on it. You're gonna have to read through the thread to find out what to do or see if anyone has posted a working version or a valid Verizon number that you can modify the apk file with using the NFL-unlocker.exe file.
