Hi
Just bought my first android phone. What are the apps I need? I am also going camping too so any that would be useful for this...

Also I thought of using the satnav on it? Is it good? Do I need to get a car charger?

I bought my GF this and whilst it's incredibly good value, the speed of the phone means a lot of the games won't work such as Angry Birds or are so slow it's not worth playing.

My GF has the BBC News app, Whatsapp, Facebook (ofc) and Tunewiki as her MP3 player. Oh and GoSMS instead of the default app.

Hope that helps

rainbowinthesky - any special interests (jogging, Ebay?), which e-mail service(s) do you use? - bit awkward to get suggestions if no-one knows what you use on the internet...

Handy list, Niceguy2. I expect there are others with the Wildfire who can recommend apps they use, too. Just need them to spot this thread.

If you want to charge it in the car I recommend getting a plug in USB adapter for the car. Something like www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Micro-USB-Adaptor-F8Z445EA/dp/B002C3AFHG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1302525210&sr=8-1. You can use your HTC cable with it but can also charge any other USB devices (e.g. iPod).

As for apps, it depends how much of your life you're prepared to waste. I can recommend Angry Birds and Farm Frenzy for maximum life wasting potential Grin

I've got Angry Birds on a Wildfire and it runs fine. Although I do tend to get stuck on the same level for about 2 months at a time, so it hasn't got many high scores to remember!
I play a Pacman type thing called Monster Maze, DD(6) loves it.
