Four Ultimate Android Apps To Have
Android might be a new operation system, but according to an article published on detikINET, at least there are four ‘obliged’ apps that must be tried by android users. What are the four ?
Android had set it for default running the apps already accessed by user(s) even the apps already closed. As we all know running multi-tasking applicatin is not good for the phone’s performance.

Handcent SMS is made to redesign the display on SMS screen, just like the one seen on iPhone. Some interesting features like adding colors of adding some images on screen had made this app becoming interesting to use.

Android 2.2 Froyo `It`s Not That Good On Nokia N900`
NTDroid project had made it to run Android OS on Nokia N900, and now NTDroid had made their way to use the latest android version Android 2.2 Froyo on N900. Android police has previously announced that Froyo can run four times faster that Android 2.1 Eclair.
The big question appeared whether Froyo can compete and run faster than Maemo OS ? The video footage which is labelled ‘kernel version 2.6.28-omap1 e-yes@maemo-sdk #33′, Froyo looked a bit slower that Maemo, besides NOT ALL Froyo features can run smoothly on Nokia N900.
As seen on Youtube video demo, Froyo on Maemo is not able to detect battery status, phone cell number as well as the network. The sound/audio can run well, but the ‘setting option’ doesn’t seem to welcome Froyo. “Sorry! The Application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again,” appeared on the smartphone’s screen. As a result N900 can not be set anymore via application setting.
It conclude that Froyo may run on N900, but it is NOT ALL THAT.
