Dear owner of eLocity A7, we need you...
It's must-have list of applications which we can use to improve usability, ergonomics and enjoyment with tablet. There are recommendations, not orders
-----------------------------------------------------
Rules and template:
app -> reason
1. Don't add games
2. Music and video players, readers, news, social network apps are undesirable, but in extra case they can be added. This isn't contest of best app for twitter.
3. You can add alternative apps even app with same functionality exists in list already (alternative launcher for example)
-----------------------------------------------------
General
Quick Boot -> Use shortcuts 'Reboot' and 'Power Off' instead of hardware-button
CalenGoo -> [PAID] Great calendar app (thx to MagentaJoe)
Bluetooth GPS Provider -> Use a bluetooth GPS receiver with apps like Maps and many others
BlueGPS4Droid -> Use a bluetooth GPS receiver with apps like Maps and many others
QuickPic -> Great substitute for existing gallery apps that come w/ devices. its about 200k, no overly fancy 3d, and is great to use as a wallpaper picker. (thx to bestialbub)
Any Cut -> Allows you to create Home shortcuts to anything. (thx to bestialbub)
Launchers
Launcher Pro -> Replacement of standart home-launcher (standart is sluggish)
Zeam -> Replacement of standart home-launcher (thx to bestialbub)
ADW Launcher -> Replacement of standart home-launcher
Performance
Root Uninstaller -> [FREE] Uninstalls any unneeded default apps easily (thx to TheZedo)
Autostarts -> [PAID] Root users can disable unwanted autostarts and speed up their phone boot.
Screen
Screenshot ER -> [XDA Free / Market PAID] Screen capture app for all rooted devices
Button Savior -> Makes virtual buttons (Simulates 'Home' 'Back' 'Search' 'Back' 'Recent Task' 'Screen Off')
BackLightKiller -> Turning off the back light also puts the device on standby. This app gets round this by setting the back light to 0.01 and forcing the machine not to switch off.
Screen Filter -> Reduce the brightness of your screen for night-time viewing
Files
Root Explorer -> [PAID] Filebrowser (requires root) - easy, light and high-functional
Ghost Commander -> File manager for the Android platform with two panels (famous Norton|Midnight|Total Commander style)
AndRootFile -> [Free] - root access file manager for read, write, delete capability (thx to cbotd)
Keyboards

SwiftKey -> [Trial/PAID Amazon & Android Market] Easy keyboard that comes with auto-correct and predictive text typing (thx to cbotd)

You are an idiot. His info lists that he is from Russia... I REEEEAAALLLLYYY doubt that english is his first language. Compared to most americans, he's got it down pretty good too.
I ball bust on here, but at least my posts contribute.

I didn't see any misspelled words in his post. Get your whining right next time. Also, yes, you are an idiot.
My contribution to the list would be CalenGoo. It's a great calendar app.
I'm curious of what others are using too. I learned about button savior on another post and it is a convenient app to have. Watching this thread with interest of the other hidden goodies I don't know about.
Another one to add to the list...
Gingerbread Keyboard.
I think it's. "Keyboard from 2.3 +" in the market. One of the best dollars I have ever spent.
There is a free one too without the plus sign, but what the hell, it's only a buck.
Awesome auto spell check too.

Not sure why people don't talk about this app...
Thumb Keyboard -> This is the best keyboard app for the Elocity in my opinion. I wrote half of my Law term paper using it.
app 2 sd
Does this app work on the A7? I tried looking up any references in the forums but couldn't find anything. I know there is a problem on the A7 with sd cards and have tried this app but cannot get it to save apps to the sd card. Even though file manager apps do see the sd card and allow access to it.
Thanks.
App 2 sd
I have this app downloaded but all I can do is clear cache or delete apps. I've never been able to move apps to the SD card either.

Does the app let you set a path for the SD card? Or automatically assume /mnt/sdcard?
It automatically does it.

Well that's just inconvenient.
Screenshot ER -> screen capture app for all rooted devices
Free at XDA
Paid at market
Great thread, wish I had seen it earlier, autostarts a paid app now
Root Uninstaller - [FREE] Android Market - uninstalls any unneeded default apps easily.
Free Root File Manager
AndRootFile [Free] Amazon Appstore - root access file manager for read, write, delete capability
Found this at Amazon AppStore. See's SD card and any mounted device in DexMod v1.2 and gives the real space free and spaced used for my 16gig SDCard. Read, write, move, delete and everything else. Very nice GUI too.
Did not find it on Google Market.
SwiftKey
SwiftKey [Paid] Amazon and Android Market - easy keyboard that comes with auto-correct and predictive text typing.
Got this as the free app of the day on Amazon, but well worth the $1.99 it costs. It has made typing on my A7 much easier and much more enjoyable.

Can you compare with Root Explorer? Who has more functionality?

I currently do not have root explorer. I have used it only twice on a previous device. So far the two seem very comparable based on my limited use and recollection of Root Explorer.
Is there any alternative for Location app? cause if we use ROMs without sense, we will not have access to the "downloaded" map stored into our device.

1. do you mean other GPS application. I recommended Papago X5.
http://forum.malayandroid.com/t39-papago-x5-for-android
2. you can download "Maps" in market but first since you're from Malaysia, you must download "MarketEnabler" from market. then go to setting list, point to [us]T-Mobile , open your market again, and search Maps. there you go.

Use Brave Browser instead and get a lot more privacy and relief from the google-world.
It's listed as "Chrome", not "Google Chrome".
