Anyone know what music app this is? I'm using GO launcher now so i can't use the sense widget. This one looks like a perfect replacement. Looks very sleek and simple.

Might be an obvious question - but can I install Android apps to a second phone? I've now got a Desire Z to go with my Desire. If I can - how? Do I have to go through and find the things I've bought one-by-one, or can I just find a list somewhere and download them in one go?

Anyone see the Movie Stream app released by the same people who did TV Shows Stream? It's not on the market any more, probably around on the net though.

I think once you have bricked your phone its game over! I am sure it cannot be restored. When I did mine is made sure it was covered by my bank account insurance. If I had fucked the phone up I would have dropped it in the bath and claimed. Just a thought for you.

Swiftkey.

This. I made the mistake of buying Better Keyboard at first, Swiftkey is miles better. Use it for a few weeks and it'll learn how you "speak" in texts and try to predict your next words (you have to click on the predicted word to enter it, so it doesn't get in the way of typing something else).

I have tried numerous other keyboards, but always return to Swiftkey. Great app and we'll worth the money!

Hhandcent now has a text schedule so you can arrange for texts to be sent at a later time, or all the time and set it to repeat daily or weekly or monthly etc. It's ace.

If anyone wants a replacement keyboard "SwiftKey X" is free on the market while it's in beta. I'd definitely recommend it, SwiftKey is ace.

Anyone know how to download SPB Shell 3d for free? Really like it but not willing to pay a tenner for it. That applanet thing where you get everything for free doesn't seem to be working anymore. It opens but no apps load...i tried deleting it then installing again but still the same.

Quick question. I have a rooted Desire, and I am currently running the MIUI ROM which I really like. I have a nandroid backup of my previous ROM. If I run a backup of my current MIUI ROM, will it overwrite the previous backup or does it created a separate backup allowing me to recover from a variety of backed up ROMs. Thanks.
