I have Westar and their fancy internet thermostat so I'm going to try this later: I'm grabbing the $99 thermostat at Home Depot in about a week, and will be using the 2nd app you linked so i should know around then. Thirding+whatever the TV Show Favs. I did the calendar method before too, but it just wasn't that useful when a show had an off week.

letsgoflyers81 posted:I fail to see the benefit of getting anything from the Amazon Appstore if it's available in the Market at the same price. The only apps I've gotten from Amazon are their freebies of the day, otherwise I don't see the point. There's the potential for issues like this and I find apps are usually updated in the Market before Amazon. I agree at the same price, but a great example for how Amazon is good is the Remote Desktop app. The one I liked was normally $24.99 or something, and I got it around 50% off.

I tried Googling this and didn't really find anything: Is there any way when doing/restoring a TitaniumBackup, that it restores the App/Data to the original location that it was done? Example: I have an App stored to the SD card. When I restore it, it's restored back to the SD card instead of internal memory.

ZeeBoi posted:I need something better than the google reader app, preferably one that isn't overloaded with sharing crap, has a decent UI and isn't as horribly slow as GR often is. The official app kept crashing on me, so I tried out gReader Pro and it seems like a pretty good app. I was actually about to buy it a long time ago, but Google released their Official app that day so I didn't at that time.

Jewce posted:Finally looking for a twitter app. Searched a bit but it's hard to nail down. So, what's the best? I remember seeing the official app and plume a bunch. Is it still between those two? I'm a major fan of Plume since a couple of updates ago. My favorite feature is definitely the fact that it'll keep track of where you quit reading, and also syncs this to a server so that it's the same place on any Android device.

Gilyon posted:Is there an app that will let me stream what's on my computer monitor to my tablet? I know a remote desktop app can display my PC's visual output, but I don't need to control my computer - just see a duplicate of my monitor. A VNC server should do that; just tell it to ignore input from your device. I saw people above me mentioned the same thing, but didn't mention a specific application to do it. Any of the major ones should do it without a problem.

Does anyone have any recommendation for Bill Organizer apps? Ideally, no integration with websites for them. I think I tried BillPay so far and wasn't too big of a fan. Basically I just want something that I can set the date it's normally due (or set it in however many days are in a billing cycle), the set amount if it's always the same, or blank if it changes month to month, when it's paid, etc.

ZShakespeare posted:the worst is my bank whose (android) app literally launches the browser to the mobile version of their website, but the URL is formed in such a way that there is no chance someone could just type it in. After that you can just bookmark it, but it's ridiculous that they even make you download the app in the first place. Regions bank? Or are there more banks doing that now? There used to be a third party app that worked great, then they disabled it saying they'd have an android app soon. Then they released it and it only opens the browser to their mobile Site. Supposedly an employee was posting in the reviews in the Market /Play store saying an actual app would be released really soon. A year later it's still opening the browser.

Of course a few before on the tablet would be good as well.

Ceros_X posted:If you have Sprint they have a signal extender that plugs into your router and routes your calls and poo poo through the internet. It is free if your reception at home is lovely enough. Also, if you have Sprint there's the Google Voice integrations. I have a Chrome extension that'll ding whenever I get a voicemail or text. And it always dings a few seconds before my phone. As for voice, if you leave a window of Gmail up, assuming it's been setup for the dialing inside of Gmail, it'll ring whenever you get a phone call and it can be answered from the browser. Especially useful if you forget your phone since everyone else can't tell a difference except maybe that the call sounds better than normal.

Zen Punk posted:I've been using Google Voice as my primary phone using GrooveIP and the Voice app over wifi at home and school. I don't even have a cell provider. The voice quality is only ok at best with a strong signal(lots of delay problems and other glitches), but I love being able to see and review texts from my phone, tablet, or pc and it makes it easy for me to be an extreme cheapass. The voice transcription has been improving and I've been impressed many times. It's quite handy. I use that app too, and I've noticed that certain ISPs just dont work well at all with it. AT&T DSL seems to just barely work at all. I've tried it at different places, so it's different routers. I've used Charter and it seemed to work pretty good.

Mega Comrade posted:I thought they might but their android store app is so bad I didn't even consider it an option and assumed their music one was too. I'm pretty sure it downloads the MP3s in a regular format accessible by anything. PowerAMP at least picks up on the Albums I save for offline usage, and plays them without a problem. Adding a +1 for Amazon Music as well; anytime Google has a decent sale I've noticed they matched their prices. Plus they have codes for anywhere from a free song for $1, sometimes $2, to $4 off of albums.

I had to do that to my wifes, and then set up the *28 or whatever for conditional call forwarding so it does the voicemail again. It's pretty confusing since it's not a setting in the app, and it may not be one on the mobile site either.

Anyone have a clue on how to get the Tracking Cards to work? I've got an email from Amazon with a tracking number (and it shows this on the right side) in my email, but neither of my devices are picking it up in Google Now. I've checked on both, and it's set to scan GMail, as well as the "Tracking" card is turned on. One is an up to date TF700T, the other an Evo3D (Can't remember what ROM it's on) The only thing I can imagine might be it is I have a Google Hosted account, with @4-7.us instead of @gmail.com at the end.
