email notification app for Droid?
 

I'm about ready to take the plunge and go from iPhone to Droid... today is my last day before I can return the droid and get out of the contract.

I bought a Droid Charge and messing with it, along with a few apps I bought its a pretty sweat phone. Biggest downside is all these apps that are RAM & CPU hogs.

On my jailbroken iPhone I have some app called "email enhancer" which will show a popup box with the senders info and subject line, also reads that info to me which gives me a hard-on. Is this available for the Droid? I can only imagine it is, but the app I purchased doesnt do shit :mad:

Any other suggested apps? I bought Go Laucher EX, extended controls, widgetsoid, beautiful widgets and juice defender.

my first suggestion would be to root and cyanogenmod the android...

i read that somewhere else. what does it really do besides allow you to have control over apps and CPU usage?

there is an app calles Appkiller or something like that. I stops all the apps from booting at start up and then you use them as needed.

Have you checked the app store??

although I would also go and get the cyanogenmod and the phone rooted you can also check this apps, they might work for you https://market.android.com/details?i...ear ch_result

I have the original droid and it's wired in directly to gmail account. I run ALL of my email through my gmail account, so I can pick up and receive all of my email quickly. I love it.

The iPhone loves to push their apps, but I've found that there is an app on droid for anything I need. One of my favorites is the police scanner where I can listen in to the local popo - always amusing.

I use this too, it's pretty standard. Helps me kill crap I don't need.

thanx everyone for the info, I have the charge, love it

I would return the Droid, it's a piece of shit os compared to the iPhone. Unless you want the 4g speed.

not necessarily :2 cents:

iPhone drops calls ALL THE TIME. AT&T wont of course take fault but I used a Droid phone from a friend for a few days, not one single dropped call in the same place where my iPhone drops calls.

I purchased the stupid cases and nothing. I bought 5 different bluetooth headsets ranging from $60 to $180 and they all sound like shit. People on the other end complain about the quality and this is bad news for business.

I jailbroke my iPhone because it was missing a lot of features that I really needed to have. Since then, along with a number of apps I purchased I have not found any value in keeping the phone over going to the droid.

2 things...

1) I pay an additional $60/mo for a mifi device through Clear 4G which SUCKS. I do not recommend anyone to use this service. With the Droid I get 4G/3G tethering for $30/mo and I only need to carry 1 device

2) There are a lot more options as to what I can do on the Droid then I can on the iPhone. Sure, its not an "iPhone" that I can plug into the many devices that I purchased to use with an iPhone, but at the end of the day I have less problems with the Droid then the iPhone

just buy a dual core droid, like samsung galaxy s2 - i love it!
fast as hell


dont buy cheap droids - there is a reason why they are cheapper as top models

My galaxy s2 keeps getting hot as hell and recently the battery has been draining super fast.

Have you been experiencing anything like this?

I might even send mine back, when I spend 500 pounds on a phone I expect it to be bloody perfect lol.
