Ok, I've had the Razr Maxx for a couple weeks now and enjoying joining the 21st Century for phone technology (I fought the hard fight). I have the apps that I "need." What are your favorite apps?

I got my Razr a few months ago and I don't use it anywhere near it's potential. I guess I'm not that tech savvy...

I like the app that lets me make and receive telephone calls.....especially when I can turn off the ringer or block calls...:grin:

I used to be that way but I am finding that there are some things I've been doing on the computers that I now prefer to do on my phone. Took a while for my wife to convince me to get a new phone but it seems like all of them pretty much require a data plan now and I figured if I was going to have to pay for a data plan, I was going to just get a handheld computer that makes phone calls.



Upgraded from the LG Octane.

Favorite apps on my Android Thunderbolt:



SSLauncher - homescreen app that lets you customize more that your truck!

PowerAmp - Music player

GoSMS - best text app out there

Advanced Pro Widgets - best for facebook and calender, scrollable too

FriendCaster - if your into facebook

Fancy Widgets - best weather app I have found

ZDBox - great set of controls

Glympse - lets you send your location to anyone - they can track your progress for the time you set

Trapster - in case you want to go faster than allowed

Flixster and ImDB - for movies and purchasing tickets

Waze - fun little navigation app



Now, these are my unrooted apps. If your rooted, there are a ton more that you will need!

Wish the battery on my Motorola Photon 4G wasn't so wimpy. I have to charge it three times a day...

Turning WiFi and Bluetooth on only when using them, I can get about 2 days out of a charge on the Razr Maxx. I typically charge every night, though.



JerryA, thanks. I let go of being technologically savvy when I started college in 2003. I'm waaay behind. I don't even know the difference between rooted/unrooted.
