While I love the market
Their are some apps I wish they had but they don't notably temple run, a decent exchange client and media player.
Have u guys got any wishlists for apps on the market?
Post your opinions below.

my wishlist
The apps that I wish and aren't free are:SU Elite ATK Pro and Android assistant paid version of course
Those who used Windows Mobile will remember TCPMP/Coreplayer. I've seen no media player come close to the vast amounts of formats this program played and also all the formats it would stream. Maybe when the VLC port is complete we will have a contender.
Actually none. OP: Temple Run comes to Android in 27th March(it's confirmed now)

touchdown is a pretty good exchange client (i used wm6.5 before so i can compare), the only thing that bothers me a bit is that it's not integrated into the phone properly (e.g. edit contacts etc)
Draw Something came to Android, so
I really want to see a way to add apps to a wishlist like the Amazon appstore. It must be a shame to see a competitor make a better appstore than you and they don't even develop. Amazon is the best.
And Android Market was just find, why Play with it
Every device on XDA has one so why not us, I also own the tombile version but hey its basically the same thing, so i thought i might as well bring it over to our side
I'm going to share some useful applications I have on my GS2.
1.Rotation Locker - It locks your screen to either Portrait or Landscape. Awesome app to have when playing temple run in landscape.
2. Rom ToolBox Pro - ROM Toolbox combines apps like Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, ROM Manager, front changer, and etc. Basically your swiss army knife for a root user.
3. AdFree for Android - I hate annoying ads this app removes most ads in the browser and other apps.
4. MXPlayer - one of the best apps for viewing movies and online content if you dont want to use gallery.
5. ProPlayer Music Player - Awesome music player that support all music formats, built in EQ, allows you to change songs when phone in standby mode by just the volume button
6.Tweetcaster - Great App to use if you tried of twitter. other than that its a social networking app that needs no explanation
7. Amazon App Store - They offer a Free Paid App Of The Day (snag rom toolbox pro off of there this is a must have app) did i mention FREE PAID APP A DAY!!!!!
8. XDA App - No Explanation at all
9. Dolphin browser HD - To me Best web browser on the android market (Plz remember this is an opinion lol)
10. Audio Manager / hide it pro - If you have one of those girlfriends/wife that love going threw your phone (call log, sms, pictures.) This app is perfect for you. lets u hide pictures, videos, applications, messages, and calls in your phone in plain sight.
This is a community and we all have the same device so lets help each other out. If you want to know what's a good app is regarding your needs, ask in this thread and I, or others, will be able to help you out.
*NOTE* If you know any unique or useful applications dont be selfish and keep it to yourself, please add them in this thread so I and others on this thread can check them out. Hey you never know who you may help or surprise on this thread
A couple ones I find useful:
Zarchiver - a file manager/explorer program. Makes extracting and keeping track of things a lot easier.
App Garden - Bunch of utilities in one. Calculator, unit conversions, dictionary, etc. Great value and space saver.

Also, not sure of this is really "useful", but if you're a fan of anime, I'd recommend you download Watchwhatanime. It's a free anime streaming app with an extremely wide selection, so you'll more than likely find whatever anime you're into. Especially good if you're into Naruto, Bleach or any other currently running anime that Crunchyroll holds out on. If you don't mind waiting an extra day, the latest episodes are available, as opposed to either waiting a week or paying for a crunchyroll subscription.

Have you seen the recently updated version? It's much easier. Just pick your anime, select the "episodes" tab, choose your episode and click a streaming link (options available for most of them are videoweed, video44, novamov) all streaming links for that episode contain the same episode. There's just multiple there in case one link is broken.

Dood's Music Streamer streams music from Grooveshark, but it has been removed from Google Play.
It's a free app, if anyone is interested, you can get it here: http://dms.mysticdeath.com/
Removed from Play Store? What the hell? Way to go, Google/Grooveshark.
I downloaded this from the play store a month ago. A few days after I noticed it was removed from the paly store, i can't play my grooveshark playlists anymore. :crying:
Why was it removed?
It allows you to download songs for offline usage, maybe Google has a problem with that.
There's a new page for this app: http://dms.mysticdeath.com/

I gives you free access to paid features of Grooveshark. Borderline piracy and Google wants to steer clear of that stuff. Whole reason why GS isn't in the play store.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
My guess would be that Google would prefer you purchase your content through play music. Rather than have easy access to a free alternative. I don't blame theme either. I'd do the same.

GrooveShark decides anybody else using their service to offline cache music is illegal except through their own app.. which costs. Figures...
Does anywhere know where the app exports playlists too? I can't find a directory, i want to export my playlists to my other devices without having to redo them all.
thanks
I was searching it, thanks for sharing us DM streamer.

How do you activate shuffle in doods?
Seems like both Dood's and Tinyshark are not working in 4.4 :crying:
They were working on 4.4 but when I updated to 4.4.2 it broke compatibility with doods and other apps that have lock screen controls. Volume rocker mods won't work cause of the lockscreen issue.
Works for me using v1.3.3 on nexus 7. Just apply the new v2 of the ‘songs not playing fix’ (soft button, settings, songs not playing fix, on v2).
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk
Just a quick heads-up for everyone: The dev released a new version of the app,the 1.3.4 which is supposedly fixing bugs among the one which made the search by artist/album option not working.
Sign into grooveshark on Doods?
Is there a way to sign into doods music player so I can sync my playlists with Doods music player?

Sorry but you have to search for your Grooveshark username to download your playlist. So make sure it's a very unique name. I found out mine was not very unique and and to try about 25 of them before I found mine.

Be sure to update to the latest version if you are having issues with the IP Block issue on Android KitKat 4.4.2. Latest version is 1.3.6 as of this posting and it fixed my issues when on 4.4.2 on my Moto X on U.S. Cellular. You can get the latest version from his site shown below.

It mentioned specifically "aren't too popular". So... wtf is 'What's up' doing with that?! And most of the rest.

This. And I mean seriously, how long until these apps hit market? It's the most available platform. A cool app is a cool app on xda or store
But we already have tons of "what's your favorite app" threads. It would be interesting to discover new sous that aren't already on the okay store. But it's whatever. Do as you please everyone.

Nice j dee! I hate it when my youtube shuts off in the gym. Can't leave the screen on and put it back in my pocket
Come on peeps keep em coming. I like the list so far. It's small and precise not large and burgeoning. Let's go over something very relevant: STREAMING from your HD
Jbeans 4.2 Camera- Full Screen Camera (compared to 4.1.2) and gallery you could flash for your 4.1.2 phone
Mediahouse Player- An organized app that collects all the shared music videos off of shared directories on your computer use in conjunction with. Allows you to favorite directories/devices. Really neat app
mx player- easy ui can easily disable/enable hardware software encoding for audio and video during play
v player- like mxplayer, could be better with UI, but unlike MX player allows you to set buffer to a whopping 8mb...so longer initial load for video but plays back perfectly otherwise
ES file explorer- save network drives
I usually make the default player for ES v player and for media house mx player. Good setup. Mx Player allows you to manage defaults for video players in-app too. Another neat feature. Well worth the money for that app.
From the computer end there are a lot of options to stream (I made a post about this a while back...search on me) but I like PS3 Media server 1.70.1 for my PS3. It allows for real-time transcoding for devices where your video format (ie mkv) isn't available. I also install TVersity server on my computer end and both servers as well as the raw files allow me to wirelessly stream every tv show except for planet earth which has a ridiculous bitrate.
Only other thing to worry about on the computer end is to make sure your sharing settings etc are set up as openly as possible. I have a homegroup password and everyone in it is allowed to at least read my directories
Hey zetsui,
sure, I love my HOX and GNEX phones (by now even more than my PC) and why not participate in sharing cool underdog apps?
Is that Mediahouse player the one you can download from the Play Store? Sounds pretty usable to me

Way better than stock audio recorder. Can record as mp3 at 128kbit/s, good enough for me. Of course, you can increase it. Can record as ogg too.
Solid explorer
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.solidexplorer
Might be popular, but worth a mention anyway. Fast, free, full of useful features, no ads... Did I mention the slick ui?
Cpu adjuster

Like setcpu, but free. You can have 3 profiles in the free version. Ought to be good enough for beginners.
Also worth checking out: servers ultimate.

Up until a few months ago I always used the same music app an my phone. I never made a note of what it was called, it just said "music" on the app drawer and it had an "f" against like a purple and black background. I've hunted through all my saved apps and all the music apps on the Play store and I can't find it.
Can anyone help?
i think you should give some description about the app, it's easier to find the app with wanted features. I know many nice app on Play Store. :fingers-crossed:

I'd say it was probably a propitiatory app to your phone manufacturer?? What model of phone is it, that may help find your app faster?
Otherwise, there are A LOT of GREAT music apps out there... Several free, several cheap ($1-$2), and several expensive ($4-8). Several of the cost ones, have a free trial... I'd just keep installing and deleting them until you find you like....I just went through this a few weeks ago myself after using the same one for the past 3 years.
Been using Blackplayer for a while now. By far my favorite

It was definitely an app I downloaded as opposed to the installing directly from the Play Store so it would've been free. What I liked about was that it played every track on an album without having to select all the tracks in a folder first. It also had an auto resume feature which played your last listened to track from exactly where you left off. It also had a decent eq. And the app was made up of several pages, easily accessible by sweeping left or right. The graphics were pretty good too. I'm sure there are a good deal of similar music apps on the Play store but I don't want to have to install each one to find one which does as is expected.
Try Ubermusic. Take your download may through the Browser by searching the APK. It is very old but the design is neat.
