1. Droid phone control
2. MeContacts
3. Speak n Send
4. Storage info
5. Uninstaller (minisoft)
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Hi - I think if they are unique and useful then we'll need to post a description of what they do, otherwise you'd have to download it and try it out to see if it's something that you'd find useful....
For me - Data on demand - switches your mobile data connection off when you're screen is off, unless a background task calls for it.
and battery indicator - put's a little battery icon in your status bar which shows you how many % battery you have left.. much more useful than the vagaries of the std battery icon.
Hey above two are very common man
Ok let me tell u abt mine:
1. Droid phone control
U can the contents of ur phone on laptop without using usb cable..u can do a lot more..give it a try
2. MeContact
Very very useful widget for smart dialling
3. Speak n send
Just speak n it gets converted into txt which u can either sms or put on facebook, twittet, etc
4. Storage info
Shortcut to see the memory status in just one clik
5. Uninstaller (mini soft)
Best uninstaller in terms of speed n ui

My first post!
Just to correct OP, MeContacts is not a smart dialer. It's an app that you can put different contacts in grid view. You can choose either to call or view contact when you tap on that particular contact. Also, speak and send is great, thanks OP.
I've been nerding and looking up for anything that can improve my X10. I'll name the ones that I don't think are very common. But ya, here goes my long list (in no particular order; i don't use all of these now, but they have been useful to me before)...
*1) QuickDesk Beta
- quick pop up menu where you can add apps/widgets and allows you to stay on your current application (for some reason the double tap doesn't work for me, but single tap works fine)
2) Last Call Widget
- a simple widget that lets you see your last call (can 1 click to call back the caller if it was a missed call)
3) Quick Settings (by Sergej Shafarenka)
- an app that lets you quickly set your WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, etc. This is better than having a widget constantly running in the background
4) Quick Battery (by Sergej Shafarenka)
- nice looking battery widget
*5) Multicon Widget
- have 4 shortcuts (not widgets) in a normally 1 icon space (helps save a lot of space)
*6) Car Mode
- press on the icon, and phone all phone calls will be coming out of the speakers (NOT a bluetooth feature which connects to other BT devices)
7) Turtle Photoframe
- best (in my opinion) photoframe for pictures, not a lot of features or customization, but gets the job done I think
8) Unit converter (by Wopnersoft)
- really nice looking interface for a unit converter
9) Tajm
- presents the time and date in word format rather than numbers
*10) Shake - Uninstall
- enable the feature, and go into any application (does not work with widgets), then shake to uninstall the app
11) Blik Calendar Widget
- a 4x1 widget that shows your calendar schedule for about 8-10 days. Uses 1 of 500 built in pics to describe your activity for that day
*12) Home Switcher
- if you use a lot of different launchers and set 1 as a default, this will be very useful for you to toggle between the different launchers
*13) Market History Manager
- 1 click to delete the history in Market, very useful and straightforward
*14) ToDo List Widget
- easy to add, edit, and delete lists. very handle and simple to use.
Hope that list helps people! *phew* that took awhile to type it up =P
*starred ones are the ones I think are most useful.

Is this available on the Android Market?
Ghost Commander... A great Dual-pane file manager(like Norton Commander, FAR manager etc), making it very easy to copy and paste between folders in your SDcard, both panes are individually configurable and its the only file manager that i use...
Its a free download from android market
Note: if you've already used dual-pane file managers handling this is a breeze, but for first timers there is a small learning curve
Thanks ECBomb for sharing the names of those apps..will try n let u know

ehh, I have it now, but only 2 holes and then it is finished, it's the shortest trial ever! But the graphics and gameplay looks good. Only I have force closes almost everytime on my x10i....
And on topic again:
Smooth Calender widget for nice transparant text only appointments on your desktop, I use it in combination with Jorte (Calendar app). Both free on the market.

Okay, just you ask for it....

i have some trouble when i use the official XDA developers app
1.the top and bottom of screen was almost always occupied when i read the topic,especially the bottom,i dont know why there is a blank that seems nothing could do-_-#even ADs i didnt see(personally,i wish never ADs on that).
2.i saw many links on the BBS,but when i click it in app,always asked me to use browser to open it,why dont insert a simple browser in XDA app?
3. for a quick movement,why not set a controller on the right when slide,just like the file system on android.

Hi,
I want to mention 5 apps, which I think are must have for Android users:
1. AppInstaller (to install and remove apps from device)
2. Go Power Master (battery control tool)
3. VIATUN 4 VPN (fastest VPN (listen Pandora, watch BBC, savings on data plan, built in antivirus on remote servers)
4. Tank recon (nice game I play to spend time)
5. Yandex maps (shows traffic+ navigates)
I want to open discussion and ask you to share, which apps are you using daily and what for :good:
Xda forum app: no explanation needed
Whatsapp: messaging
Zello: because everybody likes to talk on a walkie talkie
Droid vpn: to connect to the internets
Root explorer: best file explorer
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
Rom toolbox pro: app management, performance management, file browser, and many other things
atom launcher: smoothest most lightweight launcher I have found
xda app: obvious reasons
adaway: block ads
sliding messaging pro: only messenger that let's your swype to different conversations

Hi,
Unfortunately it cannot open apps in a floating widget.
This is an Android restriction.
Instructions for installing HTC Blinkfeed on Samsung Galaxy s
S4:
1. Download Htc_BlinkFeed_v8.zip
2. Flash it in Recovery
3. Have fun!
For weather widvet on Feed Page, set the Feed Page as Home page and go in settings/accounts and create account. Then go and enable location and it should work.
P. S. After creating weather acc. sync it.
Ok, so now here is a little guide for the users who don't have enough system space.
I am using CM11, and I think I had like 10 mb free on system(With Full-RR GApps) . What have I done? I went into system/apps and I deleted all Google apps(like Gmail, Maps, etc...DO NOT DELETE GOOGLE SERVICES OR GOOGLE PLAY). After that I went in Play Store and I reinstalled all apps that I deleted + Swiftkey. Now go back in system/apps and delete latinIME.apk( I think), it's Google Keyboard(I am not a fan of it). I deleted also some CM apps like Apollo, Terminal Emulator, Whisper Push, Dsp Manager(because I use PlayTube and it won't work with PlayTube) CM File Manager, CM Account... And I had like 100 free mb in system. 
Known issues:
1. Facebook feed
2. Weather app won't work(on clicking on it)
3. Some graphical glitches
*******Update: V8 *******
New flashble zip Htc_BlinkFeed_v8
this is weather and twitter included.
hsp (service pack) permission probrem is cleared and you don't have to remove /system/priv-app anymore
To make Weather appear on Feed page, you need:
1. Set Feed Page as Home page
2. Go into Settings/accounts and create a HTC weather account(sync it)
3. Go to location settings and turn it on
4. Now, weather should appear on Feed page
*******Downloads:*******
Htc_BlinkFeed_v8:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hu9mskraorhro3i
Its a hit and miss for twitter. For me it doesn't work but other have reported to get twitter feed to show, just not open it up. Its safe to flash V8 over V7
!!! IMPORTANT!!! BlinkFeed port is under development. Some features like Facebook feed won't work. Also, there is a little problem with the widgets. Changing density should solve the problem.
Please post some ScreenShots, I can't post because of an error.

Ok, I don't know why you can't create weather account ( look in new OP). Facebook won't work, porting is under development. Twitter has some bugs. It works at some users, It doesn't work at others.
