I have tried almost every application available on market (in Sweden) but none supports widget in free version.
The purpose in looking for new apps for both Twitter and Facebook is that I'm tired of timescape and replacing it with two separate applications..

I have also tried many free twitter apps.
I have to say that Twicca was the most suitable for me. Leaving running on background, and set interval to half hour, i get the most updates trough the notification. Also there is a widget, to bad it doens't show the last post/reaction of your following, but you have a nice neat set of buttons to make directly your own pic, search user, watch all the posts of your following.
The most best of all is that twicca can post your GPS location and post a pic directly from camera, or search your phone for a picture/movie or record a movie.
Twicca is on my phone for a month now... Still happy with it, only to save my battery drain i always kill the app when i am done xD
Im not into Tweeter that much.
Try these out. Didn't test by myself.

Tweetrait - A Twitter Widget
TweetMeep
Twitmemo
I recommend using the twicca app..I like it and it has a widget too.
It has a clean UI and is fast.

I am using tweetcaster version 1.9 by handmark. I actually preferred twiccas twitter interface just a tiny bit better than tweetcasters, but tweetcasters widget blows twiccas out of the water. The widget is 4x2 and has a text input bar for directly tweeting from the home screen, it also has your latest tweet from your feed on the homescreen, with a button to play your twitter feed, skip ahead to the next tweet, or back to the previous one (if not your most recent). It is the most useful twitter widget i have been able to find (on a free app) and the usefulness of the widget pushes it above all the other twitter apps I have tried. I have not bought any of the premium twitter apps to try their widgets (touitter, twidroid, etc.) so cant really comment on those.
Look for tweetcaster, if its available in your region, and give it a try. it is free after all, so cant hurt to try.
+1 for tweetcaster. Love it.
I use Twicca too, really like it.

touiteur - ALL THE WAY! Great with all the updates!
The official Twitter app.
Why?
It supports everything; from my personal timeline to lists I follow. It comes with a widget which isn't that great (4*2 or 4*1) but thanks to its support for notifications; I don't use the widget.
Review and screenshots can be found here.

I was a TweetCaster diehard but Twicca you have won me over with your color coding ways, ability to edit my twitter lists, and most importantly remembering my feed position when I turn the phone off and then turn it back on...sadly I could never get TweetCaster to do that :-(
If you like pretty bubble UIs though tweetcaster's is really nice plus the have a nearby tweets feature which is really cool.
I am surprised to see the official did so well since at launch you couldnt even do something as basic as view your follow and following lists
Touiteur,
Reasons why;
Coloured tweets are great and I can quickly associate the colour with the person when scrolling through a great big list.
Very smooth
Notifications
Dark theme looks more professional than others
Reasons Against;
Sometimes have issues with viewing profiles, get a Read error or something.
Small price to pay!
I love RSS feeds, but they are not as convenient to use, are they?
I did some routing of the feeds and some tinkering with the gReader pro app.
Here are the results:
1. Offline cached with all images (magazine/flipboard/peopeller like)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Full articles in feed
Here is what i did:
1.Converted all feeds to full feeds using fulltextrssfeed.com
2. gReader settings:
Enable offline usage
3. Check to cache feed images, audio and video. Don't check load full content (it loads the webpage)
4. I changed theme to dark and enabled fullscreen, but it is up to you
And you are ready to go.
After feeds are synced, images/audio will be downloaded.
gReader pro is available on market at: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.noinnion.android.greader.readerpro
Free version is also available.
Hope it helps you guys in having a good time reading RSS feeds with convenience and style.
No response. RSS is dead perhaps.
Many thanks for all the effort into writing this post .. The ability to download full feeds will be very useful to me. I think I will stick to pulse though... It just feels so slick compared to greader that I can't bear to convert. even though I wish it could download images for offline viewing too.

Google propeller can do it too (offline image). It is free but is available is US only. I have the apk but I'm not sure if it is ok to post it.
I just used market enabler to spoof as a us device but couldn't find it.... Could I trouble you to pm the link to the apk?
thanks!

I'm getting my HTC Titan on the 25th and I wonder what I need to do right away I get it. What apps are "most have" and so on? I'm familiar with jailbreaking/rooting and so on so you guys know where I come from.
if i could do it all over again, i would export my contacts from google to live, as well as the calendar. that would eliminate a lot of clean up that i had to do (not saying everyone will have some conflicts, i had a lot of custom fields on a lot of my contacts, so numbers and addresses got duplicated).
other than that, just sign in when you get the phone. it's simple.
some good apps to get:
facebook (2.3 easily made the wp7 facebook the best on any mobile platform)
octrotalk (if you use google talk for chat/video calling
7pass (if you use keepass)
appflow (make finding good apps in the marketplace easier)
battlelog companion (if you play BF3)
flixster (if you like movies)
thumba photo editor
tvshow 2.0 or primetv (if you follow any tv series)
twitter (if you do that sort of thing)
vimeo
weather master
weave
wpcentral
xbmc remote by ashterisk (if you use xbmc)
youtube pro
shuffle party
z0mb1es (on teh ph0ne)
BBB: app-ocalypse
xbox live extras
then pick up a good navigation app (i use navigon, but these can get pricey)
and those are the apps i use
What app do you recommend for calendar, or is the stock one already good? I'm using WeekCal on my iPhone which can see the full week in a very nice way.

The built in agenda view works really well. And day view. Doesn' t have week but i have so many appointments with week view it would be worthless.
i just use the native calendar app, works great and includes tasking. it's not as "pretty" as weekcal, but it works great and is easy to use and view.
I watch a lot of TV shows and it is hard to keep up with new episodes. I also had trouble to trying to figure out which shows I have already watched.... thus I found the perfect app.
SeriesGuide informs you when a new episode comes out and you can mark episodes that you have already watched.

I agree. I love this app, except for the fact that its widget really looked out of place on my home screen.
I have added a few settings to customize it; if anyone is interested I will push these changes back to GitHub and ask the author if we wishes to integrate them.

Regarding the widget, I'm also not too fond of it the way it looks right now. I do like the transparency, but the 'next' text in capitol letters is way to big. If that would be in normal text, it would be better. And the show covers could be doubled in size (thus increasing the line hight for each episode), so it'll be a little more easy on the eyes when watching the list.
Besides that, I very much love this app!
On a second note, perhaps a fourth theme could be implemented: 'rom default'. Install a recent version of Chainfire's SuperSU app and you'll see what I mean It matches the theme based on the used framework. So if you're on a Sense ROM, the app will be Sense themed, and if you're on TouchWizz, it will be TW themed.
Nice app! Thank you, really helping!

Are there someone else that is having problem to add show and search after show? This must have happen lately for me, cause i could do it a couple of days ago.
I've tried many different browsers with greyscale, inverting, and night modes. But this browser is the first I've ever seen do a clear transparent version before. I've checked all my websites and they all look amazing.
If you like blacked out and clear apps I suggest you check it out.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.UCMobile.intl
Here is how I make mine look blacked out.
1: get a completely black image, picture, or screenshot.
2: in the browsers theme section set the image you want as the wallpaper.
3: set the background to transparent

Brilliant find, really. Thank you for the tip!
Thanks for the tip.
I've done limited testing so far (did not even figure out how to set trans bg yet...), but while first looking into this on the market, I noticed that there was a mini UC Browser as well. I ended up spending more time on it than their full one.
A couple observations on Mini:
- good UI, but I do have to press my menu soft button twice every time in order to get to the opened tabs icon...;
-less options but also less "clogware" (or just stuff I don't need really);
- night mode a bit "lightish" in shade, but very good since it doesn't affect (invert) pics as Lightning (a similar) browser would;
- use fewer processes/services and about 5 times less RAM than the full version (and app itself is 10x smaller);
- could find a setting to easily switch between desktop/mobile and it seems like page zooming is not really possible... But layout seems always pretty good;
- nice touches like: top/bottom quick btns, bw saving/compression, 3 file downloads at once, auto-reconnect/resume dl (although this is marketing talk cause some site do not allow pause or resume...);
- more to discover..
And hopefully, we'll be able to theme bgs and text colors a little... I'll look into this tomorrow; can't wait... hehe!
Thx again, cheers!
Does UC support flash by now ? Did one of you try UC sync available for chrome desktop to sync tabs .... ?
That's great I love this one
