daily use apps - Android Apps and Games

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

- Google Keep for notes
- Screen filter to prevent my eyes from burning in the dark.
- Aix weather (it's more of a widget)
- PicSpeed wallpapers
- Chess game
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Feedly: daily news
XDA-developers: of course
Facebook: for communication (No one use G+ in my town...)
BetterBatteryStats: check my battery
Greenify: no description, search it online
Zipinstaller: flash zips easily
Root Explorer: no description, just a file explorer that I love

Opera mini
Xplorer
MX player(best video player)
Ttpd (best free music player)
WhatsApp

Screen filter is great, thanks

Very unique n useful apps/widgets

Hi all..
Please share some very unique n useful apps/widgets for xperia x10..please do not post the common n popular/known to evry1 apps..
Here is my list..
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.
@ polkpix
Gameloft is giving smthing free..u shud b happy
Share more apps guys..u ppl are not doing RnD properly..everybody is just writing abt 1.6
Xperia is awesome device..enjoy it!!

Okay, just you ask for it....

Hi,
Unfortunately it cannot open apps in a floating widget.
This is an Android restriction.
