Is the Masters 2010 App something to do with Data entry or is this un-related?

The only App i see when i google "Masters 2010 app" is a golfing App....

As Nelson Muntz would say .............. HA HA !!:rolleyes:

Does it work with 3G only or do you need the wireless to be on?

It is the same as watching YouTube. Wireless ideal, but 3g works.

Hi there,

Having a problem with the WunderRadio app. When I try to access the list of stations I get an "unable to connect. Touch to retry" message. However when I try to run the app on my iPod Touch the stations come up and plays no bother. Both devices are connected to the same WiFi network with the exact same settings.

The iPhone is running the 3.1.2 firmware while the iPod has 3.0. Could this be the problem?

Jelly sms. Uses your meteor/02/vodafone free web text account and contacts list to send free texts. There's free version with adds.

If anyone is looking for an addictive game, download Tilt To Live. I can't put it down!

Linoge · 07-04-2010 2:15pm

My Fav apps:

Non Jailbroken
Angry Birds - Highly addictive!! 79c
QuickOffice - ca €10 - Very powerful app for creating and editind word and excel. Great upload over wifi utility too
Facebook - free
WhatsApp - Send push messages to friends with same app for free. Some very good features. ca €2
Remote - free - Control iTunes from your iPhone
Monkey Island - Absolutely classic game - ca €7
Sky+ - free
IrelandsCinemaTimes - 79c
UltimateNotifier - ca €3 - Notifies you by push of new hotmail emails
LastFM - free - Radio you can control. No simple to get here, but very possible. Google it
Wikipedia - free
Shazam - free cersion - listens and names any song for you
lottery.ie
Dublin buster - ca 79c - Dublin bus times

Jailbreak Apps
Last App***** - Shake to instantly go back to your last app. Worth jailbreak for this alone!
Backgrounder - Allows you to run an app in the background. Eg. Use Today FM/ Last FM and check your emails
Winterboard - Change the look of your Springboard and Icons
MX tube - Download YouTube videos
SMS Helper - main thing on this app is that it counts your charactors on your text. Something glaringly missing from iPhone
Wififofum - Finds all wifi networks, even hidden ones.
Android Lock***** - Unlock your iPhone by a patterned slide. Brilliant!
SB Settings ***** Shortcut to turn on and off a host of stuff eg. wifi, 3G, BT. loads of other great stuff too. Should be on factory software.
Rock - great download alternative to Cydia.
Volume Button extender **** - Allows you to use volume buttons to forward/back tracks and pause while phone is locked. So easy and so basic!

Just got a free App from Cydia named "LastApp"

It's exactly what the iPhone is missing.
Are you fed up with having to close one App to go back to the last one you had open , then back again ?
(e.g) You are in Safari but wanna open your mail quickly , means you have you close Safari , open mail , close mail , back into Safari.:(

Well "LastApp" will allow to quickly toggle between 2 of the last Apps open , or set certain buttons or motions (great addition) to toggle between certain Apps.

I have set it up so if I'm in Safari I quickly shake my device and it will open my mail , another shake and I'm back into Safari .

it's bacically CTRL ALT for your phone

Well worth the 0c price .

I find Backgrounder & Insomnia work really well for that... you can have multiple apps open at once, drains the battery & slows everything down but it does work... great for social networking or something like skype...

I got the Empire movie guide app too, but was a bit disappointed with it, some of the movies I was looking up didn't appear in App, rotten tomatoes and IMDb are much better, even though I do love empire will stick to the mag instead of the app for now

Just got my iPhone today

and reading back over this thread to get ideas for some apps.

I see a lot of recommendations for the Sky+ recording app - does anyone know if there's anything similar for the upc/ntl recordable digibox?

Fantastic App. But I downloaded it but nothing happens when I try to skip songs. Is there any setup required?

I think i rebooted my phone (not just a respring). Works fine for me

darsar · 10-04-2010 6:25pm

Guys

A long shot but I'm looking for a way to lock individual apps. Basically I know i can password lock my phone but my nephews love messing with my phone for games and that which is fine but I wouldn't want them opening up my Ping or texts seeing things from my pals!!

I'm normal 3gs and probably chancing my arm here!

Dman001 · 10-04-2010 6:26pm

Ya I restarted the phone and it works. Great App.

Backgroundr
ProSwitcher
Volume Extender

3 must have Jailbroken Apps.

Here is one I got today. i€Bank its handy for AIB customers. Its costs €1.59.

Personally I wouldn't trust it, that's possibly giving a third party you bank account.

Has anyone bought the new Irish Times app yet?

got it, and very dissapointed - it seems to only have about half the articles as in the print or web version - it's not good enough compared to the guardian app which has oodles of reading every day

Yeah, it's crap. No way should they be charging for it. And given that they've returned to the subscription model, I doubt they'll improve it.

+1 the Guardian. Fantastic app.

RonanC · 12-04-2010 3:06pm

Thanks, I'll stick with the Guardian for the time being so.

Mini Driver · 12-04-2010 5:27pm

Think there was another one called "yearbook yourself" too. This is hilarious... if theres a few pints involved when you use it on your mates prepare for people to start wetting themselves!!

dinneenp · 13-04-2010 12:40am

What app has scores from the widest range of sports? I want it for checking sporting results for bets...
I have livescore (very good), Sky Sports (slow to load).
I'm looking for one that'll give as many sports as possible- soccer, rugby, F1, rugby, horse racing, boxing etc.

thanks,
Pa.
