Also if you purchase 1 mp3 album from them they will automatically upgrade your 5GB to 20GB for free for one year. And songs purchased from them don't count towards your data allotment. I bought an album that was 3.99 and got upgraded instantly.

Free: Shazam Encore (Today only)

Just as a heads up, Amazon's free app of the day today is Shazam Encore
In case someone doesn't know about it, it's an app that can identify a song thats playing out loud. For example, if you're in your car and a song you like is playing on the radio but you don't know the name of it, this app get get that info for you.
This app is normally $5, so if it sounds interesting to you get it now while it's still free
Sorry if this is in the wrong section btw. If it is can a mod please move it? I wasn't sure if this should go in general or here
This is the only link I will allow for this. You can link to the amazon site, but any links directly to the apk for download will be considered warez and treated as such.
Hey right on man good find!
Thanks

How to load my photos and movies on.

I am trying to load my movies and pictures that I have onto my flyer and can't seem to get them to play or show. Is anybody else having any luck getting this done?

hm....very easy...connect Flayer to PC as Disk Drive - create a directory Video, Pictures....the you might able to see via Gallery or any file manager... take a look at the screen shoots
Double Twist worked well for me. It integrates with iTunes nicely.
However, Google Music Beta and Amazon MP3 cloud players have made local sync almost not necessary.
Thank you for the response and help. That is what i thought and basically what i did but still not able to see them or play them.

These are some of my favorites
Quickpic - can't believe nobody's mentioned this since the stock gallery is horrible
Grocery IQ - autosync with spouses phone so when you add or delete from the list, it shows up on the other person's phone within a couple of minutes of opening the app.
Handcent - much better messaging app than stock...I even have my LED set to purple!
Ad Free - have to be rooted - especially since most of my apps are free
SoundHound - almost as good as Shazam but is unlimited...Shazam only allows 5 per month unless you got grandfathered in
KeyRing Rewards Cards - hate carrying those little cards around since I don't have keys to carry
Battery Circle - since MoPho only reads battery in increments of 10, this app reads in ones
AirControl Lite - free little game that's a good time waster

[Q] Temporarily "make available offline" for Google Music?

So, I love Google Music, it's great.
My only caveat is making a playlist available offline temporarily, and then deleting it once I'm done.
It makes sense for the subway, etc.
I'll load up a new album, and I normally listen to the album as a whole and then get rid of it to free up space (and to decide which songs make it to my main playlist).
I'm using a HTC One X, so 16gb is a bit limiting and I can't have it full of music.
Any ideas?
I think Google needs to implement this feature.
Yeah, that would seem useful.
You have a HTC One X, doesn't that have around 25 GB usable space?
It does come with 25gb of space, but I dont want to rely on data usage too much when it comes to media.
Kills the battery too quickly lol

Not the Dropbox space. 25 GB phone storage + 25 GB Dropbox right?
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
The phone on att comes with 16gb of space with about 11ish or so available, plus 25gb extra on dropbox.

Cloud storage

I'm an idiot when it comes to cloud storage. I have a bunch of music and I know it won't fit with the 16gb capacity on my DNA so I was wondering if there is a website or an app that will let me access all of my music from my computer on my phone?

I use BubbleUPnP to stream media from my pc. Works great with pix, music, and video. You need to install the server software on your pc to stream over mobile network.
Win7, media player 11 works great for me. I use MX player as a renderer on my phone. It has the best codec support.
There are several free cloud storage services but I don't know if you can stream to your phone from them

Awesome thanks for the info, ill check it out

Google music lets you store like 20k songs for free. Also drop box gives you 25 gigs of storage although I think that might be only for verizon.
I use BubbleUPnP too. It is really good and easy to use.

How did you get 25 gigs for dropbox. I only have 3 1/2
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
When I opened drop box on my DNA I had to go through a tutorial and then I got the extra space. Not sure if its a Verizon thing or not.
I'm gonna look for the tutorial. I gained a little space (500mb) for auto upload but didn't see an opportunity for the rest. Will check it out
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I don't know if this would be able to cover all of your needs, but you should check out Bitcasa. It's a new Cloud Storage service and I like it very much. You sign up and start off with 10gb free and you can upgrade to unlimited storage for $10 a month.
I use Bitcasa for my pictures and documents, but I use Spotify for music though... but I still hope this helps! :good:
Yeah I use Google music. Download the uploader from the Google music page and just start uploading your music then you can also redownload it later to all of your devices if you want to or stream it

Try Plex
Plex, app and desktop media server work well. I think the app is $5 but it works not only for music but you can access your movies, pictures, anything you upload to the app you can watch from pretty much anywhere. But for a free alternative, use google music.
I've been using Subsonic for a few years now. I have the Subsonic server installed on my desktop at home which allows me to stream all of my movies and music to my phone or computer. It was pretty easy to setup.

The dna does not have a dropbox promotion associated with it. You probably got it from a Rom which includes a promotion from a different device.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
No it has nothing to do with any roms. When I first installed dropbox on my DNA it had the 25gb bonus once I completed their tutorial. If you Google "HTC DNA dropbox" the first link from dropbox.com has all the details.

Yep, Dropbox 4.0/4+ bonus is not available for Verizon. Some people were able to get it from custom roms. I received a small bonus when i was on a custom rom with my thunderbolt so maybe that is why I cant get the second 4+ (25gig) bonus on my ViperDNA. You might be only able to receive the bonus (w/ custom rom) if you have not received any other sense bonuses in the past.
I My Google music uploaded on my pc stopped working and I get the couldn't connect to Google play. I have tried un installing reinstalling and disabling av as well as sent logs to Google and tried the access code and it still won't work. I have been working with Google for 2 months. So today I got an email and they have forwarded my case to a supervisor because the rep I initially got was horrible and they also credited me 10$ for inconvienece. Which is nice but it's still not working. I have had to transfer music to my laptop and upload which I use only for school so it's a pain in the butt has anyone had this issue and found a fix for it just curious because I don't think Google knows what to do.

Have you tried creating a second gmail/google account and using that for music? Your phone can have several google accounts setup. I have a google account with all my music synced to it; and all of my family put that account on their phone, in addition to their own personal google account. That way they have access to the same music, and we only sync the music from the computer to one account, instead of many accounts.
No my account is fine it's the upload program for the pc that doesn't work. It says it can't connect to the Google play servers so I can't even get into the sign in app...
