First off, how ya doing, I apologize if I don't sound reaching through this but on post one a figured I nice vent would really get me as a part of the family lol jk..

:blink:
Problem 1.) I am using a NON rooted Hydro on boost (I cant for the life of me get the SU binary ERROR TO STOP DENYING ME)

2.) A good navigation....I read so many dang reviews on the navigators and which are the best UI's and the best over all for performance etc.. I tried the JOKE of a app Mapfactor, telenav which is actually better than its upgrade of scout (the waiting times are unreal for loading.. and they constantly send you back to that page if you use your phone for anything besides that screen, I have tried multiple others, does someone have a good looking one that had the satellite 3d view, NO It doesn't have to have offline maps, or anything, but any of them for free, I am sure there is, if scout didn't have the errors they have then its actually a sick operating system,,, Navigation for free, navforme etc,,, I'm so done looking at them all! Ironically enough the google maps is actually doing the best, but I would like the POI options and UI look that scout has.


3.) The final one for now.. thanks for reading this far if you have if you can answer even one of my dilemmas I would be grateful! grammatically error filled rant it would be amazing... I am appp crazy right now..... SO here it is, INDEEED is there ANY program at all that you techies have tested that is a legit APP killer to speed up my phone and shut down everything I don't need,... Which of course means a TON of Google crap..... I know a root is a good route to solving a lot of these but I have followed over 20 tutorials verbatim step by step and not only is my phone not rooted (I know this by trying root activities..... but on the root verifying apps it tells me I am not rooted, and then at times I am held back from certain details, such as a system wipe of cache on a hard reset, because I get an error code of 8507 which says it doesn't have admin power or whatever.....


Sorrry about the quick first entrance, but very very long time lurker... PS, I will have my galaxy 3 soon, this was a back up durable phone when my other got water damage, has been a faithful fall back... for making calls and texting lol... about it.
 
2. Google navigation or waze(social navigation owned by google) are second to none. I use waze as my primary(has traffic conditions, weather warnings, road debris warnings, gasoline prices, police and speed camera warnings) and Google as my backup.

App killer I haven't used since ice cream operating system so I can't help much there. If i need to kill an app for what ever reason there is apps in settings where you can force stop what ever.

Google nav AGAIN...

AND there's no need for an app killer...since ics, android does its own app killing..WARNING if you use an app killer..it could kill apps that are part of the process for another main app, and cause force closes and crashes...

I go into apps, running, and kill what I don't want running by force closing them...it doesn't destabilize the system...

Hope this helps :)
