Sorry but are you jokeing you have loads of the same type of apps. Close the thred.
Sent from my Pulse Mini using Tapatalk
No I am not jokeing and I know I have some apps of the same kind and that is why I am asking the members which one they thing I should keep and which one I should remove.
Do the brave thing and delete everything. You'll soon realise what you need.
Seriously, I stopped reading the list when I saw, like, 5 news readers. Keep Pulse (or your favorite if it's not pulse), and delete the rest. Delete any news apps, and find the address to its RSS feed. Add those feeds to whatever reader you kept, and you've already eliminated at least 5 redundant apps.
Use the same strategy for everything else. You should be able to tell when two apps are doing the same thing. Just pick your favorite and delete the rest.
Edit: Are you kidding me? 5 or 6 file managers. I would stick with Root Explorer or SU and delete the rest.
I'm gonna leave it at that, because that is way too many apps. Good luck streamlining.
Looks like a list of downloaded warez, and you're just trying to figure out which ones to use.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
AAAH! MY EYES THEY BURN! dude litterally. what are you tryin to do go app crazy? CM6.1 has it's own file manager that works great (once the full version comes out i'll be happy) as for all the double apps get rid of em. literally why so many apps. only keep the ones you will use not the ones that will sit and collect fragmentation (hahaha fragmentation kinda like dust is to objects).

I was thinking the same thing when I saw both Root Explorer and SU on the list, not to mention all the other duplicate-function paid apps.
@OP: You should listen to the dude who said to delete everything and start from scratch. And with no wares this time.

Do you have all of these apps installed and running on your phone?
Sounds like you would have some performance issues with these apps, narrow the list.
Do a Google search for the "app" name + "Android review". When I am looking to accomplish a certain task, I Google that on some review site. This will narrow your scope.
I have not, I repeat I have not downloaded these apps from waez or as a package but spent time on appbrain and install each and EVRY app I listed and tried them, th initial liost was 500+ apps, I have narrowed to 200 apps, I just wanted to know which ones people think are the ones worth keeping, the reason I have shortlisted these are because I like the functionality and Ui, however it could happen that some function is available in app x and also in appy but I don't know yet (not played enough), but people on the forum are able to point that out.
Most of the apps listed are highly rated and popular.
I have updated the list by cutting down on some apps.
i will give reason for each app, once i find some time.
That's defo a warez list lol.
You wouldn't have listed all the free version and paid versions if not.
No way you'd have paid for all those apps without trying them.
Made me lol in rl.
Use whichever you feel more comfy using.
Good luck
edit... quick Google search I just found your current list in a wares torrent. In the same order.... Lol
*Sent from XDA on my Wildfire*
And for every app group (be it warez or not), there is not simply an app that beats them all. It all depends upon your interests and personal preferences, and no one but you can decide what is the app out of a group that fits you most. So please stop asking others to do a work you only can do yourself.

i fully agree with that!
HOARDER!!!!! Wahhh i need moar warez....oh noes i need moar appz naO!!!!!!!
Killkill kill this thread ban the op and take away his poor phone.

I have actually been felt very offended by the fact that members feel that I am using from torrent or warez. As proof here is the list on appbrain:
appbrain .com / user / mohitgarg / need-to-test-install
appbrain .com / user / mohitgarg / faved
And mr leetvtr, eff off, i could find the apps u use in a torrent too.
If I wanted to keep them and be a horder I would not have listed them, the whole purpose was to get input from people about what they feel about an app and if they would discourage the use of a particular app for some particular reason.
I actually did try all of them for less than 22 hours (paid) as I wanted to try and then get a refund, thus didn not have enough time to play with them, but these r the ones i liked in terms of first impression. I actually have tried many more (paid too) apps but did not like them and thus needed your help, what a friendly society, really!
Cut down to one newsreader. For social apps, I'd use Facebook, TweetCaster, GoChat, and Tapatalk.
This combination provides the best coverage of features with the smallest footprint on your phone.
I would also go with Winamp for music, and YXPlayer for movies, since they each offer the best quality and broadest compatibility of their respective media types. I'd also cut down to just Astro and Root Explorer for file managers. While Astro may seem redundant, it's been beneficial to me to have a "pedestrian" file manager, and I also find Astro's zip manager more reliable. Only keep the Google Apps you are actually going to use. I can almost guarantee Google Sky and Goggles will just end up collecting dust in your app tray. The majority of the apps you have listed are pretty specific in purpose. If you aren't using then, and aren't sure if you need them, back then up with AppMonster and uninstall them. You'll always have then to reinstall from your SD if you every want to try then again. That's about all the advice I've got.

Thanks for the constructive criticism, higly appreciated.
I have updated the list, need more suggestions.

No need for a task killer on android, or something like juice defender. They are a waste of battery.
well Im trying out the free version of J/D and my batter since last night has stayed the same by now (6.30am) it would need charge so it seems like its working..
what about an app for remote access for desktop or either something like drop box that does not have a limit of 2gs.
Also a different note whats with other forums talking about the update about side loading what is that going to do that Side Loader Wonder Machine does not. Is the update for S/L'ing apps with a computer.
I found some cool games robo Defense, Crody, Robotek (had to load form the market place pc) and moblox and found G4 =) and cover art so when I transfer Mp3s over to the sd card this app will find the cover art
check out geocaching........ its fun with this phone

As for launcher, I'm using CM's Trebuchet.
Falcon Pro - Twitter client
Action Launcher Pro - Minimal launcher with quick access to search and App drawer
Pocket - Google Reader
Exynos SIII; CM10.1
For me...
Titanium backup.. A must if you like to switch roms often.
TSF Shell as my launcher... In my opinion the best launcher out there. More than worth the money
Power amp player as my default music player... The best in my opinion as it has a built in equalizer where you can tweak the sounds to your liking.
Button savior... Only because I have a modded body glove case to house my anker 4440mah extended battery and I don't like pushing the buttons too much and this app allows the main buttons to be on the screen.
Zedge... Only because I switch wallpapers constantly and Zedge fits them the best to the s3 screen without cropping or resizing

Cool Reader first of all, as I love reading books. Titanium Backup is also a must for all rooted devices. And n7player for music.
AW: Must have apps??

My Apps
1. Action Launcher pro - personally I love the launcher, it's simple to use, and does a good job of simplifying everything. I feel as if it's still a young launcher, so there are somethings missing like being able to back up the current set up, but it's impressive, and continues to get better with every update.
2. Snapchat - instead of sending a text you can send a picture or video for a specified amount of time for a friend to view. it's fun to use.
3. Chrome Beta - it works the same as the regular Chrome browser but seems to be a little faster.
4. Google Drive - same as Dropbox, but it's connected to your gmail account. If you're an android user, which I expect you to be if you're on this link, than using google drive is a benefit.
5. Skydrive - is you use Microsoft than Skydrive is good to have. I keep all of my photos and video's on here, and keep my files on google drive, and dropbox.
nice apps

If I'm not mistaken, there's some kind of data compressor implemented in it, so it should work faster than regular chrome.

Sorry but it don't know if I understand the first question. Do you want to know what those apps do?
And the 2.:
You should never use any Battery Calibration app. Afaik those apps reduce battery life if you use them too often. I've read some articles on the internet about that and it seems that the best for your (lithium ion / lithium polymer) battery is to keep the charge level between 20/50% and 80%. This means that you should avoid going below 20% and over 80% and charge the battery when its under 50%. And also NEVER under- or overcharge it. This may cause serious damage! Those things should extend your battery life to the maximum. And again: I'm no expert on this. This is just what I've read from people who say that they are experienced with such things
If you have a new battery and that's why you are asking:
The battery needs 4 or 5 complete charge cycles to get to its full capacity (5 x 0% to 100% or 10 x 50% to 100% or 25 x 40% to 60% and so on)
GAME APPS
- Magic Piano
- Hill Climb Racing
- Temple Run 2
- Subway Surfer
I would typically play these apps when I'm bored
