There is a better one than iTunes, the default copy-paste of windows explorer. For apps, just open the play store website.

Flash Transfer ? isn't that the app from Micromax? ( Lightning symbol in a Green box ?)

You can try Software Data Cable ..Works in the Same way & less buggy. :)

@ashs1>> thank you for suggesting the better alternative- Software Data Cable..will try it out :)

- - - Updated - - -

Please suggest me the below 2 apps-
1. App to hide apps on my device without rooting it..available ones in playstore require your device to be rooted
2. App to record voice calls...available ones in playstore cannot record the other party's voice

[MENTION=145143]SaiyanGoku[/MENTION]>> thanks for your suggestion...will try them out.

Can you pls suggest an app which can manage the startup of other apps? something like ccleaner or msconfig via which you can control the start of apps at the boot of the phone.

i dont think this type of app will run without rooting.

ES taskmanager can do this. but i think it'll require root permissions for that.

Even if the phone is rooted and the app is prevented from running at startup, it may still end up running stealthily in the background later thanks to android's crappy mechanism leading to unwanted wakelocks. It's better to just greenify such apps, even works without root now.

wht does greebify actually does, it prevents the apps from using data(when not opened, i.e in background) or it stops the whole process of app itself and free its space from ram?
---updated---
i just found out what it does...
The best way to describe cpu wakelocks is like this, say you(cpu) are trying to sleep but your annoying roommate(bad apps) keeps making noise not allowing you to sleep. Either kick them out(uninstall) or put duct tape(Greenify) over their mouths to shut them up so you(cpu) can sleep peacefully.
and greenify let us keep these app quite..but for non rooted phones, after screen wakes all greenified apps also wakes up, and then we manually have to force stop(greenify widget takes to that force stop location), so for non rooted phones, does greenify really works?
