I couldn't find this anywhere, I did look.
Is there an application anywhere that would give me a lovely big analogue clock and my background, or even by another way?
I just like big clock faces on stuff, like the one I get when I set my alarm.
Any ideas anyone?
SPB Time from www.spbsoftwarehouse.com might do what you are looking for.
rltoday can do that - see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54633
I recommend WolfClock. You can get the latest version (it hasn't been updated in 2 years, but still works great) from http://www.structuretoobig.com/home/show.aspx?bid=47. It is easily the best clock program I have found, and it's freeware.
Hi everyone,
this has probably already have been discussed before but i can't find a good answer to that question.
so what is the best GPS software with offline maps that run on the titan
i am currently running dcd 4.1.2 with nothing installed so i have the maximum available memory.
Oh and the price does not matter to me as far as the program is good !
i was using tomtom and my friend that have a raphael is using OCN8 but i tried it and im always short on memory
thx a lot !
garmin xt is the best
thx a lot ! it look very nice
does it run smoothly on the titan?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Very much so... Works well, keeps position well, speed seems to jump a bit more (+/- 1.5mph) than TomTom did. Both are very good but I prefer Garmin XT these days for a couple reasons.
Garmin will tell you that your destination is on the right or left side of the road TomTom didn't. Garmin has Fuel price finder, weather data, and Airport info - TomTom doesn't.
Can't really go wrong with either....
my personal FAvorite is TomTom Natigator 7.45 w/ custom voice C3PO directing you, and Mart Kart as my custom pointer I wish there was a professional sounding "Super Mario".. As for maps, I live in the US and TomTom works great.. I pay the $25/yr and get the live traffic updates (I have an unlimited data plan). I live in Milwaukee and we get rush hour traffic most evenings (and mornings) and you can set up TomTom to auto re-route a faster way.. it updates the traffic every 10 min I think..
I also tried iGo, and was not impressed. It seemsto me to be very unstable (Took me 4 tries just to get it INSTALLED properly, and I am a PC Tech by profession) Once it was installed, I would have lockup issues atleast 1 out of ever 2 or 3 times I used it.... From what I read, others have this same problem.
Google Maps, well, it is free and legal if you have a data plan... but besides that..... lol If I jsut have it on in the background in my dash, I will turn on the google maps with the google earth overlay, so it looks sort of like when there is a car chase on the news by how it follows you
But overall, in the US, I would go with TomTom
ill give a stab...
I hang out with a massive group of guys from offroading mud trucks to race cars and car clubs.. so I was able to test what others had as they all wanted to know which is the best and what to go with..
all I can say is after using each one... there is NO ONE that does it all..
first it is about the feel, look and functions...
ill give a short list of the couple I liked and pro's cons on each.. I am pulling this off of memory as I dont own them but thinking about it.... just not sure which to buy...
iGuidance 2009
- This one was my favorite
Pros -
Quick gps fix
ease of choosing a route
nice voice with speach for navigation (tts is it called??)
Can set gps settings manually
Points of interests had everything I looked for
Large buttons when looking for address
ease of adding location to favorites
ease of saving favorites with custom names
Cons:
no online weather
no online traffic
no online points of interests updates
Cant change car icon
dont think you can change voices
no breadcrumb trails
TomTom
Pros -
Quick gps fix
ease of choosing a route
nice voice with speach for navigation (tts is it called??)
Can set gps settings manually
Points of interests had everything I looked for
online traffic
online points of interests updates
seperate dunkin donuts locator - THIS WAS SAWEET!!!!!
change car icon
change voices - yoda, mr t were funny
ease of saving location
Cons:
no online weather - dont remember seeing that one
no breadcrumb trails
Garmin Mobile XT
Pros -
Quick gps fix
ease of choosing a route
Can set gps settings manually
online weather - really nice and you can choose the city!!!
online traffic - really nice as it lists all streets near you
change car icon - only to 3 it seemed... but hell had a lifted truck so i was in
Google Local search - for alot of things and really didnt use it much but looked good
Fuel prices - gives local prices and drive to... this was really nice and accurate for the most part... and can sort (price from lowest is what it sorted) and told you distance.. but one gas station was closed down (not even physically there anymore)
flight status... really really really cool.. showed landed, in flight and scheduled!!!!
Cons:
Points of interests had everything I looked for although some were not easy to find making this a con
voice with speach for navigation - didnt sound as clear as the other 2.. bit choppy
no online points of interests updates
dont think you can change voices
buttons a bit small for touch screen
no breadcrumb trails
couldnt set gps manually.. i couldnt find any settings button to change it... will most likely use the default internal settings so cant use with gps gate
none had breadcrumb trails that can be exported to say google maps... I want this to map where I have been offroading....
Garmin POI transportation was tricky to find the train i take to work... Patco - Lindenwold was there.. but the other 2 found it easier... it was frustrating
so out of those 3 I liked iGuidance the best for look, feel and funcionality..
however Garmin Mobile XT seemed to have more online features that are pretty handy (i dont fly much so flights not important to me)....
since Garmin had Traffic and weather.. it was nice....
tomtom having the dunkin donuts is a life savor as myself and wife love DD coffee... so to have that was cool....
I just cant see buying all 3.. as they each have their own nice features....
Summer is upon us again (but been raining soooo much) but when i get back with the guys.. I wanna see who got anything new... one guy is using the HP 310 GPS for GPS, Movies, music, etc..... maybe he will let me take that for a bit....
hope this helps some of ya..
I also didnt mention mapopolis... it was pretty cheesy looking, worked but dont think it is available anymore.. but also did breadcrumbs
ones that didnt make the list as i didnt get to see them but know they exist..
copilot
street atlas - looked cheesy
Pocket streets
Delorme street atlas
memory map
oziexplorer
************edited
also this one is looking good...
PocketMap r4
http://www.pocketmap.com/navigator.html
I've used 2004 Delorme and IG.
hands down IG kicks it's butt.
The Delorme was so difficult to use while in a car, the GPS antenna that came with it was a joke and wasn't very accurate.
The screen layout of IG is 10x better.
But, keep in mind that nothing is 100% yet on any of them.
Actually, TomTom does have online weather, as well as online gasoline prices if you are willing to pay for it
FM radio via my blutooth headset ( know about wired headphones for aerial but if the chinese can have dvb-t radio phone wtf is up with uk tech)
a program like friend stream that will let me also has sms & mail widget included in it and gmail able to add in (couldnt get gmail it to go into the mail widget).
skype, tomtom ( navigon, copilot and google maps dont cut it for me)
a better player than rockplayer ie better quality system integration widget.
Solid voice control mapped to search button, including full control, search spell checker etc.
the android market to use paypal.
android seems like a mac system too much form over substance still seriously concidering going back to windows, its all fluff i like fluff its soft and warm but it has little substance.
iplayer (myplayer) widget.
decent power management ...
htc to put infared on so i can use it as a multiremote ... side issue but...
abillity to edit apps area to put ones i dont use into a sub folder.
to understand why a 1ghz cpu cant play 333mhz psp games...
native option to remap hardware buttons
To know how to make things auto start.
better control then power strip thing.
when i search market to be able to filter and sort results...
dual sim holder built in.
dvb-t would be nice.
etc.....
a normal mini usb socket so it fitted the hundreds i already have...
a task bar
Hello everyone,
My current boss wanted to get something to display some powerpoint on an hdmi tv fixed on a wall rack mount. I wanted to know if the official office app do work with this device or any other powerpoint app. It would be only for displaying. I heard it was acting as a standalone device, not like the chromecast. She also want to stream some sport match for the guest in the waiting room when there will be an event, obviously, i think it will work for this stuff but i was unsure about the powerpoint.
Thank for answering my question guys.
Hi Guys,
I am in the market for a smartwatch, which is sleek enough to wear every day as a smart watch, but also I can use to cycle and use for navigation with GPS.
I am looking at the Sony Smartwatch 3 as it looks quite nice and has built in GPS.
However, there are more stylish looking watches I like the look of from the likes of Asus, LG and Moto.
So... Is it possible to use the GPS on my phone which will be in my pocket, and use the watch for instant navigation instructions?
I am thinking about apps such as Ghostracer for GPX files for example
Thanks in advance!
