Two very nice finds, setting up Android Manager now.
Edit: Loads of nice finds...

yeah i plan to keep adding more great apps as i find them in this topic.
(forums are a better bookmark than a bookmark in a browser )

the wifi one is great, I have a 32gb sd card that has write issues when copying files via kies or usb transfer, but this way it works like a dream

it's great for installing Apps not from Android Market, also to organize your contacts, files, etc.
Also take screen capture, and many many other things.

AllGamer, hopefully soon the Elegant Steel theme will be able to work on the i9000(m)
That is probably one of the nicest themes I have ever seen.

Bookmarked.
This thread should Be sticky.
Thanks for the info AllGamer.

Great thread, thank you.

Oh yeah. The Oscar goes to this thread. Thanks man.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

new stuff added

Your contribution for this forum is great! Thanks for the list.

new apps added

AllGamer,
First, thank you for this great list... I've already added several to my own Galaxy S...
If I may make a suggestion though, it would be to include the date you add something to the list in their description. The list is getting long and hard to navigate or determine the new additions. Something along the lines of this:
APN on-off Widget
date added: Aug 28, 2010
Apk: http://www.appbrain.com/app/net.maicas.android.apnoo
Very handy to turn On/Off your GPRS/EDGE/3G/3.5G data connection

good idea, i'll do that with the next item i add to the list

SMS Time Fix
Apk: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.mattprecious.smsfix

ChompSMS - best sms app, imo
Tansithub Calgary - for bus times

I find AirDroid useless when Google gives you Google Voice.

AirDroid can be used for so much more than typing stuff...
Adding music, deleting music.
Removing apps, adding apps.
Its really easy compared to hooking up a USB cord and going from there.

Photoshop Touch is incompatible, you need to sideload it. But do agree with a lot of them. Lightflow is a definite must, morequicklypanel is a good one but does take up a notification, and also for me Battery Widget Reborn is a quality app. great battery statistics

Live Score Addicts and The Football App are pretty great for football freaks.

I also love Feedly (news content) and Swiftkey (probably the best keyboard). I also like Greenify very much, but it's unuseful now because we have no root on the phone.. (unless unlocking the bootloader which I don't want to do now).

What's the battery life like with all of these apps installed? Also, anyone try the Google Experience Launcher over Nova for their launcher?
I like the Google Now feature, especially with the feature to be able to say "Ok Google" at any time on your home screen. Gravity Screen also seems like it'd waste a lot of battery.

Lightflow has low utility as our devices only has the white led...

i use Chronus for clock, calendar and weather, it's a really good app

Here are some to start off:
ES File Explorer is my favorite file managing app
Airdroid
Dynamic Notifications is worth a try
Evernote
Pandora
TuneIn Radio
Dropbox
Skydrive
Skype

i'm agree, Airdroid is Awesome !

i forget a precious apps : Llama - Location Profiles to automatically activate/deactivate wifi, sound, or other things.

Android Reverse Tethering - Presently, you are required to connect / disconnect to a wifi signal before running this utility.

Must have apps on my Moto G :
1) ES File Explorer
2) Titanium Backup ( if rooted )
3) Skype
4) Mx Player
5) LiveScore
6) Winamo Pro ( for shoutcast )
7) PowerAmp for local music
8) Adobe Reader
9) Ebay
10) Flashlight
11) KitKat Launcher

For battery percentage you should use "battery overlay percent" it shows the % you have left as overlay on your original battery. :good:
I also like "Power schedule", for turning bluetooth etc. on and off. :fingers-crossed:

my all time list:
smart launcher,
bsplayer,
dropbox,
es file explorer,
jetaudio,
keep,
my cloud player,
quickpic,
skype,
stumbleupon,
tunein radio,
uberhype

Live Score Addicts and The Football App are pretty great for football freaks.

Sofascore<<< I'm convinced that this is THE best football/score app there is with a modern android design.

I use a sound through wifi a lot and definitely the best pair are: AirBubble for receiving (paid, or otherwise a lot of noise after half an hour of use) and Aoa for transmitting the signal from my Android TV stick.

One issue i do have is the lack of Flash player for this phone, i have tried all links to do with it, but no joy, any ideas?

Install Dolphin Browser, that has flash on it.

It did not work for me,
However,
Doing this worked like a charm.
Save the Flash player.apk to Google drive (this has filters and converters)
Once saved open from your device and hey presto it installs Flash player to your phone.
Apparently it will work this way on other apk files that don't install normally
i will try to find the link where i got the tip from.
