I got a HTC - but the Touch Pro 2, instead. Kinda locked in to Windows Mobile (yea, I know) for work.

Regardless, it’s working well for me.

Also looking for something to interrupt the Navigation when you get a phone call. Someone called me the other day while I was navigating and it kept giving directions while I was trying to talk. Program needs a pause or something for when you receive or make a call.

It’s an app that will allow you to modify your home screen beyond what the factory settings will allow.

What are you trying to install?

Nothing in particular, I am just kind of exploring this new(to me) technology.  
There was another one too but I can’t remember the name right now.  
Some apps said you needed ahome or the other one.

Some comments on slacker radio make me think it just keeps downloading music to your phone and fills your memory until you uninstall it. That’s ghey.

Who makes these apps? It seems like some are just “homemade”, not really a qualified company or anything.

What’s with all of the force closes?

apps can be created by anyone, so there are definitely a lot of shitty ones out there.

pandora is great for personalized radio stations. Pandora is a legit company, after many years they have finally managed to turn a profit(they added advertisements to the site). I’ve never used slacker, but I use Pandora on a regular basis and love it.

I would stay away from the ones that modify your home screen or add on “themes”. most of that shit is just going to make your device slower.

They force close because they are written by people that don’t know what they are doing.

Last.fm is another good radio program too. Plays a way wider selection of music, instead of the same couple of bands.
