If you have an Android phone, here is some software that might be of interest:
Security/Privacy
- KeePassDroid - Password manager that uses encryption
- TextSecure - Encrypt SMS
- DroidWall - Firewall
- AdFree Android - Requires root, but removes all ads
Performance
- Only have wifi or GPS on while using it, turn it off asap after use.
Samsung
- Kies Air from Samsung Apps (allows you to exchange content on the LAN through a web server)
Backup
You'll need adb for this. On Debian or Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb
then you'll want to make a directory to back your files up to:
mkdir android-backup
cd into that directory, and start by backing up all your installed applications:
adb backup -all
and now you can also backup your internal sdcard:
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/ .
The above assumes you're in android-backup, otherwise replace the . with the directory you want to backup to.
