Guys and girls is there an app that will clean my contacts on my android? I find now I have multiple contacts for the same person and also unwanted contacts like email addresses. There is one called SMART CONTACT CLEANER for BB but I cannot find one like that on Android.

Just edit your contact display, happens to me when everything is selected, remember google has a list of emailed contacts as well, you just need change it to show only phone contacts and your done.

Thanks, I had a look at my email account and saw all email address I had brought in from another account and they are now on my phone too. I will have a look just now and see about clearing up the phone.

Well seeing that is replaced Google docs and if you had docs installed on your phone a simple update would have installed it was the reason I didn't even think it was worth mentioning in this thread.

That and its still got a number of most basic features missing tjat both box and dropbox offer. Google seems to think space is everything, they forfet features matter too.

Control Your Phone With a Wave of Your Hand
Uses the proximity sensor to allow control of your music playback and calls by waving your hand over your phone.
Better than lockscreen controls since there's no need to turn on your screen or even touch your phone at all!
-Want the next song? Just wave!
-Need to silence your ringtone quickly? Just wave!

Tried it and it is so awesome. Sit at my desk and just "wave" over the phone to change the track without me having to unlock and go to the music player!! +1000
 
I can't believe this hasn't been added yet.

Onavo Extend

Description
"Onavo effortlessly extends the value of your existing data plan." - Dave Johnson, CBS MoneyWatch
**If you have installed a custom ROM, please read the instructions at the bottom of our App description**
√ Get as much as 5X out of your Android’s data plan
√ Traveling? Save up to 80% when roaming
Onavo Extend lets you get more out of your data plan, so you can do more web browsing and apps, consume more music, video and photos on 3G without breaking your data cap.
After you install Onavo Extend you can go back to using your phone or tablet as before. In the background, data usage from all apps and web browsing is compressed so that you do more with your Android’s mobile data month after month. And, if you travel abroad with your phone, the money you save could be substantial.
OS note: Onavo Extend is only supported for specific ICS devices.
"This is a necessity download for any smartphone user" - Gizmodo
"It's clever [..] you could save yourself a lot of cash!" - BBC
"This app doubles your data plan" - WSJ.com
IF YOU'VE INSTALLED A CUSTOM ROM:
Some ROMs and kernels are missing important networking support that Android 4.0 APIs, and Onavo Extend, rely on.
If you've received a message saying your version of Android is unsupported, or if the application always says "service paused", please contact us via the "Feedback" menu item so we can help.
Trying a different ROM or kernel should help as well.
