new android devices

Let's face it, not everyone is inclined to using smartphones especially when the only things you do are making calls and the occasional SMS. Some people just don't know how to use their smartphones, especially the new Android devices. Being the fastest growing mobile platform in the world, it would be a shame to put all of its features, apps and services to waste. Here is a list on how to get the most out of your new Android device.

Make use of your 3G

Switching off your 3G connectivity will definitely ruin the full experience of having an Android smartphone. This kills the best features of Android which are the notification systems. Let's say you have already downloaded your Facebook, Foursquare and Twitter. Even better, some Android phones have these social networking apps built-in the phone. However, Twitter apps become absolutely useless without constant access to 3G. The downfall to this is that you'll need to charge your phone every night as it'll be taking a lot of your battery life. You'll just have to sacrifice it if it means using your Android to its full potential.

Never mind a task killer

Android already has a basic but flawless multi-tasking capability that handles all running apps elegantly well. There is no need to run a 3rd party killer which will not even result to a better battery life. Other task killers will also prevent your apps from running in the background which means no notifications and no updates for you. The Android market is fast starting to become significantly at par with the iPhone App Store. More and more Android phones are being sold in the market which has recently become the world's leading smartphone platform. With a huge target audience and users using Android, new and fresh apps are coming out daily to further excite its users which means multi-tasking can be flawless with an Android phone.

Share your Apps

You might not know this, but some HTC phones have a built-in App sharing services found inside the apps drawer. Select the App Sharing app and choose which apps you would want to share via standard portals. You can then share your free apps to your loved ones via Facebook, WordPress, mail or even messages.

Make use of your Android Power Control Widget

This powerful widget lets you toggle your Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi, Sync and brightness all in one tab. Most importantly, this power control will be able to save most of your battery life.

Maybe you just got your new Android phone. Or maybe you've had it for quite some time but am getting bored with your Android interface. Whatever your reason must be, make sure you get your money's worth when it comes to handling your Android device.
