really ad free? that is stupid. Lets use an app for free and not support the dev that is offering it to you for free....
About Ad Free, I really don't mind seeing ads in apps, but when I'm out and about browsing the web, I don't like how web pages load much slower, and unnecessary data usage. To each his own, I suppose.

Hey there,
just tried the new google music app introduced by today's I/O Conference.
(In case you cant download on the market due to regional settings try to search for the apk by twitter)
One thing I realized was that the application is incredible slow, sluggish and makes the desire feel like an old device that is not capable of the requirements of the new ice scream sandwich android release.
What do you think? In case the whole OS is sluggish as the music app the days of the desire seem to be over.
Regards
I used out both on my tab, and desire ! I'm not finding any lag what so ever! In fact it's bloody smooth
Tab - android 2.2
Desire - RCMix S - android 2.3.3
Edit: my only complain is there are no lockscreen controls

Works ok for me on my Desire
7mb is a fairly hefty app though
Running fine for me... CM7.0.3
Only problem is the PC version is not available in the UK so cant fully benefit! Hope it comes soon!!!!!!!!!!!
Not slow at all, using DevNull and it flies here...

Not really, the details in the Manage Apps list aren't accurate, Angry Birds takes up 17Mb but only shows as 384Kb
im running devnull myself, probably the fastest and cleanest rom around with the best performance. nevertheless you can see that the animations etc. are NOT fluid. I dont think anybody can deny that.

Hey,
Have you installed some background music enhancer.. in my case installing livefx was slowing the app down. Now it is up in flames

i think its also pretty damn useless comparing to the other music apps on the market which have tons of useful settings etc
installed to try out the cloud which doesnt work anyway so it is a completely useless app for me

Hi,
After switching from iPhone 4 to One X i am just missing a companion app to help me discover latest games. In iPhone there is a Toucharcade app which really helps in discovering new games.
I have searched hard on the internet and found Applorer it's quite good but some of the games are missing.
Is there any good app out there?
Its really annoying for me to open App store in ipad than check if that particular games is for android also

Every device on XDA has one so why not us, 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

The amazon appstore usually gives out crappy paid apps, once in a while a badass app comes out. I remember I got SwiftKey x for free there once, but when it was on sale for $.10 on the market i bought it from there. I used to check everyday but not anymore. Damn I cant believe i missed rom toolbox.

To the op, ROM toolbox has an ad blocker no? Rotation control it's usually built in too.

I've been back and forth on task killers. The one I'm using now has a quick 1-click widget. I excluded all of the apps that should stay running for stability and other reasons and only have it setup to kill games and other apps that I don't want notifications from and don't need to keep running. It's quick and easy for me to just kill all the junk apps all at once. I have noticed a performance difference with it too.
I also use Autostarts to keep crap from starting up when I don't need it.

Above and also android pro widgets is really good for faceache, twitter, calendar, and lots more all in one app.

I don't use the official Facebook either, takes up way to much space and the amount of permissions it requires are crazy! So third-party applications seem to be best for the space issue. However it all depends on your personal taste. FBtouch is a personal favourite of my mine, however I think it's being pulled already.... Can't seem to track it down again.
check this topic http://techdeville.com/2012/09/21/5-of-the-best-facebook-android-apps/
'Scope' is a new app for facebook, twitter and few other social networks. Seems to be a nice app.
developer says it's still in beta. So there maybe some bugs. I didn't try it out myself.
Here is the play store link.

Granted, it's not on the Q&A Forum, but I've always used this thread as a good guide to quality apps. Yes it's a bit old, but a lot of the apps have been updated recently. I have tried most of the apps on there, but haven't kept all of them.
