Anyone know of a good .torrent downloader app? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

just looking for a good .torrent downloader app, one that downloads the torrents to the phone and not remote to your computer. Trying the bittorrent app right now, and it seems to be a little crappy. when i start a download it only connects to about 4 seeds and only goes about 3 kb/ps with WiFi. Do I have to change something in my settings to download faster?

There are a few torrent apps in the market. Just search for torrent.

How about trying out aBTC? I however think setting up a remote is much better.

definitely the wrong forum for this, btw

Andtorrent is the best for this.

I was in the same boat as you a couple weeks ago. I didn't want a remote downloader. I found a beta version of an app called dTor. A quick google search of "dTor android bittorrent" should bring up some more info for you. Also, check out BluePlanetApps on twitter. That's the developer.
I had some problems with the app while it was in beta. The developer said that it was running fine for everyone except three people with EVOs. We all sent him various logs and I believe he got all the bugs worked out (guess that's the point of beta, right?). Ironically, it sounds like there's a chance the full version will be released today.
Despite the problems that I had, I thought it was a great app that did exactly what I was looking for. If the developer got those minor bugs worked out, then it's going to be a winner.

Thread moved to Q&A.

Swarm will be on the market soon!

Here's a screenie...I got lucky to be a beta tester...offical market release should be very soon. Like within days.

Swarm is in the market now for $4.99 I am checking it out now. I tried dTor but it would force close on boot. This one appears to be working. The 10 peers max is definitely a downer though.

A few suggestion for Windows Phone 7 navigation

Since Microsoft first released Windows Phone 7, I convinced my self to "NOT BUY" the very first release because I know and I think most of us knows that a few months or weeks, an improved version will be available.. Well probably upgrading a ROM is the answer but anyway, my few suggestions to improve some navigations.
A like to suggest in horizontal panning effect which I think is a very nice and beautiful. But to improve the navigation, here are some my suggestion.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Ok. So another one would be, in Application List navigation.
also posted in my blog site
http://jaysonragasa.net/post/A-few-suggestion-for-Windows-Phone-7.aspx
To be honest, those are nice concepts. I can easily see the Application list getting changed to allow grid support. Can't say much about the other.
FYI Windows Phone 7 is going to be very easy to update. It has a real updater unlike Windows Mobile. You wont have to flash a rom and wipe out all your apps and settings to get OS updates anymore. At least thats what Microsoft is claiming.

the question is, will it be "free" ? which I don't believe it will.
and if not .. well most of us I think will still swim around this kind of site for free upgrade, patched ROMs that we will still injecting in our phone's vains
EDIT:
-- ok, so hopefully it will be free like Windows OS
another suggestion would be
Bing search results.
Will it be nice to search inside your phone too such as Contacts, Applications, Calendar, and files? here's the preview.

Remote Play

Hello, I've been looking for a way to do this for months but haven't had any success, so I decided to finally post my question here.
The PSP has a homebrew app called PSPdisp , that could remote to a PC in real-time, lag free. http://www.jjs.at/software/pspdisp.html
Is there any way to get something like this in android where we can view and control our games from the EVO without lag or stutter? I'm sure we have the speeds to do it Evo's 4G speeds are about 8Mbps on average (in my area), and my home connection is 16Mbps
This would be great for playing emus not available or not capable of running on android.
I don't know how hard this is to accomplish, looks like a very fast vnc server to me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q1b1iNgl8M
Wow...No replies? I should have put more interesting words in the topic...
You're referring to like cloud gaming; ex beaming/streaming wii, Xbox, computer, games on the evo via internet? I'm trying to understand here. I don't believe there's nothing out just yet for the evo you might be tad bit ahead of technology my friend lol.
Not exactly mobile cloud gaming, even though we aren't too far from that either (see Onlive)
Something more like StreamMyGame, I want to have my PC running a emu, lets say dolphin running Legend of Zelda WindWaker, while VNC'ing (if thats a word) to it over the great interntz to the SuperSonic or Xoom. You know it just streaming video to me and me sending it commands with every button press.
Heres a vid on some of its features http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZd3hADOqSw&feature=player_embedded
I'd even be willing to commission or "donate" to someone to port the homebrew app to android if its allowed on these forums. The source is available.
Ohhh that's sick. Maybe if you post it here you'll get more attention vs just in the evo forums. So many devs float around these main apps forum.

Wouldn't I get in trouble for double posting though?
Can a mod just move this thread over to the Android Apps and Games section please?

Metrotube is down, but not out.

We all know that the author confirmed that Metrotube is out of Marketplace for a long time ago. But surprise today, when i was reinstalling apps for my Eternity through "Reinstaller" , i saw MetroTube in the list. I chose it, and the phone was able to pull out the Marketplace Site for MetroTube, i reinstalled it through Marketplace just fine! ( I bought it before)
I tried to search for it on Marketplace , but it came up with nothing. So look like MetroTube is not completely pulled off Marketplace Database, but in "hidden" mode.
So for whoever have purchased MetroTube and you want to have it once more time on the app list, you can go and download the "Reinstaller" app from Marketplace (Free) and then choose MetroTube on the list. Or you can try this link:
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/apps/8d93224f-2808-e011-9264-00237de2db9e
So, people might not know, but MetroTube was an excellent YouTube app. Just a trick for people who bought this app. (New Users can try to purchase it, i don't guarantee anything)
You can also email Lazyworm at [email protected]
They've been maintaining the app in the Marketplace (hidden from search and such) for a while now; anyone who purchased it can receive a Marketplace link if you provide your Live ID.
i should be mentioned that the MetroTube you download now is flagged as beta and will expire after 30 days of time. They're trying to find aways to avoid this, but up to now that's the way it is. If you happen to run into such expiration issues, just mail the guys again with your live ID and you'll get a new - working - link.

great site but

It's the worse site i use when on a phone. BY FAR.
Ad central, videos that launch by themselves. slow.
And that blank white page that keeps popping up.

Very odd, I've had the game on mine for about 3 weeks. and have never had an issue. I would un-install the game again and then go into the Android/data directory with your file manager and remove the com.ea.games.nfs13_na directory. Then re-install the game. It will have to re-download data. Hope this helps.
Strange. Plays fine here on Jb.. But if u find a free apk online it doesn't play.. Just as u described will happen.. Do as other had stated and seen if works.

Issue was a bad update...
There was an update that EA released which caused the game to malfunction. Apparently as of today the issue has been resolved(Check the attached screenshot).
Re-download over wifi now that it has been "fixed" and try again. If not, email the address that's listed in my screenshot.
