PocketMoney - balance your money
Services - turn off and on features like bluetooth, wifi, etc
SMSD - send multiple SMS
Chat - chat program
Sketches - draw funny pictures
SMBPrefs - put different themes on your phone
Customize - reorganize the layout of icons

Games:

iBlackjack
gpSPhone - SNES emulator
NES - NES emulator

Voice Recorder App ended up being VERY useful for me. Also, there is an app called Camera Pro or something... It's good because you can use zoom and other features on your camera.:apple:
 
IMGrab is pretty cool, allows you select URL's from your Safari history and download images to your photo album.

MxTube is pretty awesome too, and I think it was officially released yesterday, it allows you to download YouTube videos directly to your phone.

1. Ok, so I reeeeeally want IMGrab, but it's nowhere to be found. :( Is there a custom source required for this?

2. I installed MxTube, and downloaded a big ol 8meg .mp4 video from YouTube. However, it seems to be sitting there in a lump unable to be played by anything. It'd obviously be too big to be emailed, so I'm kinda scratching my head here. Whyfor do I want this video downloaded? Huh.

Thanks for any pointers!

Sorry for the late reply, yes - a custom source is needed for IMGrab...I believe the "official" repo is: modmypod.net/repo.xml

The IMGrab app will appear under the "A27 DevTeam" category in installer.

You'll also need to install Jiggy Runtime (current version is .26 I believe). If you get any Jiggy errors after installing IMGrab, simply uninstalling and reinstalling the Jiggy runtime usually fixes the problem.


As far as MXTube, it's worked pretty well for me so far, only had trouble with one video so far.
 
I found "BossPrefs" better than "Services" for my phone (can really easilly turn-on and off EDGE - whist this did not seem to work well with "services" - and seemed to contact the network). I have 1.1.4

I like Voice Notes - but don't dare use it as don't see any way to delete a voice recording. Is there something I am missing.

Music Quiz is fun

Has anyone got Mobile RSS working with 1.1.4?

To delete voice recordings in Voice Notes, just swipe your finger across the recording and press delete. It's just like deleting an email.
 
MxTube
How about ssh to Media folder and transfer all the video to iTunes maybe? At least easier than keepvid->isquint on Mac.
