Rooting has nothing to do with your plan. Rooting is a process that allows users of mobile phones and other devices running the Android operating system to attain privileged control (known as "root access") within Android's Linux subsystem with the goal of overcoming limitations that carriers and manufacturers put on some devices. It is analogous to jailbreaking on devices running the Apple iOS operating system.

So far Tunein radio has been the best app and it's not even close.

I get anywhere from a day to two days depending on usage on my EVO. I use the Tasker app to turn on WiFi when it recognizes the IP address of my home and work networks. I have it set to turn GPS on when the apps that need it are accessed. And I don't use a Task Killer but I do use Set CPU.
If you're not using Tasker, you're missing out. Big time. I never toggle anything, because I've already set up the Tasker rules to direct my phone to toggle based on my typical behavior. It's great. |

I didn't figure you were bragging. I was curious as to why your bill is so low.

Tunein is a nice app. I prefer Internet radio. I actually pay the $3.99/mo because I hate commercials. I use it all nite at work, so I'm getting my money's worth.

Internet connection determines picture quality. If there is no HD version, then it plays the SD version, assuming there is one.

right so more than likely, its playing in SD from your phone even if connected to an HDTV?

Good question. When I use it like that, it's using wifi. The quality isn't quite as good as it is when I stream thru my Roku.

While there is some video loss, it's handy to have when visiting friends who don't have Netflix.
