I installed the wonderefull new Synergy ROM and I love it. Previously I had a long list of apps installed. Now I have maybe 8 or 9 apps that I could install without running out of room. & that is with app2sd.
& out of those 8 or 9 apps, about 5 or 6 are apps that I "want" like Angry birds & facebook. & not "need" like gmail and logmein pro and such. I really want to keep the new rom but I use my phone for everything. I miss my google sky (my kids love it) snesoid (Killer instinct). Just to get an idea. Here was the list of apps I made before I changed roms:
adobe apps
advance taks killer
angry birds
avg
app2sd
break vids
cachemate
circlelauncher
craigslist
dropbox
efile
facebook
gmail
google sky
Google Voice
Google+

Now?
Angry Birds
app2sd
Colornote
efile
dropbox
Facebook
gmail
logmein
Skyfire
Google Voice
Honestly I love features & pretty buttons as much as the next guy, but if I have pretty stuff everywhere but it can't actually DO anything im gonna have to downgrade.
I want to keep this rom installed but, can someone please tell me how to get a considerable amount of space back. If not back to SteelROM I go.
I had the same problem with Synergy as well. Switch to MikG, very similar rom, and plenty of free space.
thanks for mikg
That was really helpful. I switched to mikg and I have over 250mb of app space. ROM is really very similar. Only issue is battery life and no swype. I will find solutions to those on my own, unless you have a quick answer to those too. LOL. Thanks again bro!
Partition your SD, that'll fix it

Dude, you have so many apps that are only for camera and editing photos. Why don't you use only one that does both? Instagram is a good choice.
A good app is Airdroid, I think that's why is in your top of the list . Another indispensable app is "AdFree" which makes your phone to not display ads of any type in any application.
Root explorer should be a good choice for advanced users, Nova/Apex launcher, Terminal emulator (for when you need to do something and you don't have adb at your hand).

No its because if u rearrange all the apps in alphabetical order, AirDroid will come at top...
AdFree needs a rooted phone... Right now I am happy without rooting it.

1. Total Commander - Best file explorer... far better than ES File Explorer too...
2. DICE Player - Best Video player for HTC... Infact it plays mkv files without any problems
3. Juicedefender - Battery Saver, reducing power usage. Battery lasts for a longer time.
4. Sygic - Voice Navigation and offline maps
5. Pixlr-o-Matic - Best photo edit software... I think its better than Instagram
6. Wordweb - Offline Dictionary... cant live without it
Here's one of my favourites as a Uni student, "Evernote"

I am surprised that no one has had Swype on their list. I have recently added the new beta version and for me it is now the first app I will add to a new Rom.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S A510e using Tapatalk & Swype
Running a custom ROM... I have installed Catch That Bus, Dropbox, IM+ Pro, Link2SD, Google Maps, Nova Launcher, Play Store, ROM Manager Premium, Root Explorer, Smart Tools, Superuser Elite, TuneIn Radio Pro. That's it.
Used to have Facebook, YouTube, Twitter installed too, but don't use YouTube on my phone, and the Facebook and Twitter apps have gone to shirt just lately. So those three got removed.
Swype annoys the crap outta me... why do I have to download an installer, install the installer, and then install Swype itself? And sign in to get the beta! Tried TouchPal keyboard, just as good as Swype, but I find that I'm actually quicker using the stock ICS keyboard, so I don't have any others installed.
I have all my apps, both past and present, backed up as APK's using a leecher tool. I still keep them up-to-date, but don't have them installed.
I got SwiftKey 3 for keyboard very nice
and got the solid explorer for file manager.
know if want to find a app that improve the sound (like incoming call I lost call because I can't hear them :banghead
any suggestions?
Send from my HTC Wildfire S
ROM. Wildchild. v2. 0
Hello. I had very much problems with apps. I didn't know which is better and which is really usable. So I will try to help you with apps - this is list of the best apps:
Apps for all users
Everything for browsing:
Browsers:
1. Boat Browser: I think it's the best browser and I'm using it right now - it is really fast, faster than Opera Mobile, Dolphin or Chrome! Supports almost everything, has some themes and add-ons. Also, it has nice speed dial.
2. Opera Mini: Browser that will help you save some data, but it doesn't support flash, backround JavaScript and etc.
3. Skyfire: An alternative browser with flash support, but quite slow.
4. Dolphin Browser: Quite fast browser. This one is very customizable and it has very much Add-ons, themes and etc.
5. Dolphin Browser® Mini: Something between Opera Mini and Dolphin browser HD. This browser is slower than Opera Mini, but faster than Dolphin HD. Also it is more customizable than Opera Mini, but not as customizable as Dolphin HD.
Social:
1. Facebook: If you are using Facebook you must have it.
2. Community Reader by Tapatalk 4: For going to the forums like this.
3. Skype - free IM & video calls: I think you know what is it. It's just a mobile version...
4. Google+: App for Google+ users.
5. K-9 Mail: The best email client for Android. It's simple, nice looking, fast and really functional.
6. Twitter: In my opinion, it's the best Twitter app. Simple. Fast. Many features.
7. WhatsApp Messenger: With this app you can chat with your friends for free (requires internet). Also there is a group chat.
Other apps for better browsing experience:
1. Feedly: A RSS reader that works as both an app and a widget. Probably the best RSS app.
2. 3G watchdog: This app shows your data usage. This app is the best, because it doesn't include Wi-Fi data and shows notification.
3. Network Monitor Mini: This app displays real time upload and download traffic in screen. Really good app if you want to check your internet speed in real time.
Customizing:
Launchers:
1. Go Launcher EX: I think it's the best Launcher. Many functions (I think the best is folders in app drawer, or hiding apps in app drawer), many themes. But it eats more RAM than other launchers.
2. Launcher Pro: This launcher is very fast, but not as customizable as Go Launcher. But if you want the best performance you shuold use this launcher.
3. Swapps!: This is a side launcher that is always there, when you play, read or listen. Just swipe and switch to another app. Good for heavy multitasking users.
Homescreen:
1. Fancy widgets: The best free app for widgets (like HTC style clock and etc.).
2. Beatiful Widgets: The best of the best widgets app. Simple and beautiful widgets. Pro version has more functionality, but costs.
3. Memo Widget (Note Widget): Really good and customizeable memo widget that will help you if your memory is bad .
4. PicSpeed HD Wallpapers: This app has very much high quality wallpapers.
5. Power Toggles: Widget in notification bar or your homescreen to control your wi-fi, bluetooth, brightness, mobile data and etc. Really much functionality!
6. Ultimate custom widget (UCCW): Make your own widgets! Use custom layout, fonts, images, shapes, interesting objects like series clocks, weather information with icons, unread sms and gmail counts, battery info and etc. Use it for maximal customization.
Multimedia:
Music:
1. MixZing Media Player: If you don't like stock music player or just need more functions like equalizer and etc.
2. doubleTwist Music Player: One of the best (or maybe the best ) music player for Android.
3. MX Player: Really good video player. Customizable, nice and fast.
4. SoundHound: If you are listening to radio or just music from somewhere and you don't know name of the song - just open this app and it will show song that you're listening name.
5. Shazam: Something like SoundHound, but it is better if you are listening rock, rap, pop and other non-electronic music.
6. TuneIn Radio: The best Internet radio app. If it works in Lithuania, it must work everywhere.
7. Mobile Metronome: If you are playing with any instrument, this app is must-have. This app has everything any musician can ask from a metronome.
Photos and videos:
1. Camera Zoom FX: Camera app which has very much effects and functions.
2. Vignette: One more camera app, which also has many effects and features. It's paid.
3. Photo Editor by Aviary: I think it is the best photo editor for Android Phone. Very much effects and funcionality, and it's easy to use!
4. QuickPic: This is video and photo gallery. It has more functions and it's faster than stock gallery.
5. VidTrim - Video Trimmer: With this app you can trim your videos.
YouTube:
1. TubeMate YouTube Downloader: With this application you can downlaod videos from YouTube.
Reading:
1. Aldiko Book Reader: With this app you can read books and etc. This app supports .ePub files (with these files your reading will be much more comfortable).
2. Documents To Go: View, read and edit all .doc,. docx,. xls,. xlsx,. ppt,. pptx and other files.
SMS:

I bought a LG Optimus G so I'm ready to support this thread again.
Moved it from Galaxy Mini forum and now I'm updating the list,
because all these apps that you see now are a bit old and this list
was dedicated to Galaxy Mini forum, not to the Optimus G forum,
so all these games are really low graphics and apps can
be old or something. So, I'm starting updating this list, don't worry
guys, don't worry.

Swiftkey - already here.
Proxydroid - Not added, I must to try at first.
Chomp sms - not really. Yep, it's faster than Handcent or Go SMS Pro. But it's much more disgusting than Go SMS Pro. When you have such as fast device as ours - speed of app doesn't matters very much. Go SMS is simple, beautiful and I love it. I couldn't say this about Chomp. It still needs some improvements on look.
Aviary - I love it, much better than PicSay.
Swapps - added. Reminds me Ubuntu Unity .
Network Monitor Mini - added.
App backup & restore - I think Titanium Backup is enough for everyone . So - not, I won't add this one.
Water Logic - added. Really good one, if you like logical games .

I just play the real MTG Card Game though, that's why I suggested it. For the ADW, it's APW or Android Pro Widgets. It is really useful to me.

Add Real Racing 3 in racing games. Very addictive, played it for 60 hours until now
Also ES Explorer is great and in my opinion better than Astro since ver 3.
