I have a question for iPhone users. Android has an app, called Shush!, which is great for movies or meetings. The gist is when you turn your phone volume to zero Shush! pops up and asks how long to stay quiet. After that it automatically restores your ringer volume to a predefined level. It's a great app to run in the background.

My sister has an iPhone, and complained how she always forgets to turn the ringer back on, so I told her to get this app, but then when I looked for it in iTunes I couldn't find it. I rarely use iTunes though, so I may just not have looked in the right place.

Does iPhone have a similar setting, function or app?

I just got a Droid 1 bought it used and Verizon set me up on it, everything works expect I can't download apps, when I do so I keep getting a error message from the app store. I have a full 3G signal and phone signal.

I set up a gmail account and everything.

Any thoughts?

Well it depends what your error message is.

Mredskins, check and see if a sd card is in the phone in the battery department. The droid came w a 16gb one. I know you have to have a gmail acct to get apps so there might be something there. Also just restarting your hpone might do the trick

hooskins · 02-28-2011, 05:03 PM

mlm, you dont need a SD card to install apps. Actually all applications install to the phone first. They can then be moved to the SD card.

Additionally, can you surf the web with 3g (turn wifi off)? If you can, that means its another issue, if you cant then something is wrong with 3g. I would call their support and take it in to the store if doesnt work.

I get that on occasion, I just keep hitting the retry option (sometimes up to 4 times in a row) and eventually it connects and works fine...

i got mine working, it was annoying.

If you buy taptalk is that a one time 2.99 charge or a monthly charge?

MTK · 03-01-2011, 09:07 AM

it's a one time charge

I literally just caved in and bought tapatalk. I use to browse the forum through the web on my phone, but its much cleaner with this. 3 dollars is worth it considering the amount of time I spend on the warpath.

Yeah it's a good app, well worth the $3 especially if you follow a few forums.
