Best APPs in your phone? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I hope everyone would share their highest rated or most used apps in this thread....
I rate the following apps highly
CNNGo - a nice travel review app
Driodsail super - moves apps from phone to sdcard (requires root)
soild explorer - has a nice interface file manager (requires root)
greenpower - use it to manage my data connection

"systune" by a landslide for me - being able to change the priority of certain processes, simply by increasing/decreasing their numerical value within the re-nice settings - such a user friendly way to prioritise your launcher, settings, dial pad, music player etc. - increased speed where you want it, and that's only one aspect of the app - golden .........

LBE privacy guard, has very good permission manager and internet firewall

Root Explorer.

Droidwall

Es file manager - root,ftp, sys analizer, excellent interface
Es task manager - root,lightweight,cache cleaner, boot manager, excellent interface, widget
Titanium backup - obviously
Camscanner - excellent document to PDF
Webtopdf - webpage to PDF file

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?

(UPDATING)Must Have Apps, Games & Widgets For Galaxy SII

Hiya everyone. This type of thread isn't new to XDA as it's on almost every device fora, but I decided to bring it over here aswell.
I'm going to share the most useful applications I have on my S2 and would like you to share more must have apps to add to this list.
Check out post #2 for some of the best games on Android and check out post #3 for some of the best widgets we can use.
1. Power Toggles - This is simply the best toggle app around. Able to toggle lots of main features.
2. Picsay Pro - This is a brilliant photo editor, but limited compared to some others. My personal favourite.
3. Rotation Locker - WYSIWYG. It locks your screen to either Portrait or Landscape. Really useful on some apps.
4. XDA App ICS Blue Colours/Themed - Our favourite forum app but with a complete red or blue colour theme thanks to our own Whiskey103
5. Home Switcher - Switches between any Home Launchers you have on your device.
6. Memory Usage - Lists all current apps and tells you current memory usage, peak memory usage and priorities.
7. PicSpeed Wallpapers - Over 170,000 HD wallpapers of all different genres, for our device.
8. Bar Shortcut - This is for the people who want their home screen nice and clear.
9. Desktop Visualizer - Makes shortcuts or widgets using a custom image and can be used to make custom icons.
10. Wave Control - Execute actions by waving your hand over the screen.
11. Solid Explorer - Solid Explorer is a file manager which with two independent panels is the most attractive, eye catching and intuitive file manager for the Android.
12. PowerAmp - The most powerful music player there is.
13. SuperSU - SuperSU is the Superuser access management tool of the future. *ROOT*
14. ROM Toolbox Pro - ROM Toolbox combines apps like Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, ROM Manager and others. A must-have root app *ROOT*
15. AirDroid - For moving files between your PC and phone using WIFI
16. QuickPic - An alternate photo gallery app, incase you don't like the default
17. AdAway - AdAway is an open source ad blocker for Android. *ROOT*
18. Tasker - The best app of its kind. It does almost anything
19. MXPlayer - MXPlayer is one of the best apps for viewing movies.
20. Photo Timeline - Lets you create a time elapsed sequence of anything you want with your camera and then play as a slideshow
21. AVG Anti-Virus Pro - AntiVirus Pro is a mobile security solution that helps protect your mobile device from viruses, malware, spyware & online exploitation in real-time
22. Aldiko Book Reader - Read and download thousands of eBooks right on your Android phone or tablet.
Download one of the best Android eBook Readers now!
23. Dropbox - Dropbox is a free service that lets you bring all your photos, docs, and videos anywhere.
24. Cerebus - Cerberus is a complete anti-theft application, the best protection you can get to recover your misplaced, lost or stolen Android device.
25. ScreenCast - ScreenCast records your phones screen at high frame rates and makes a HQ MPEG4 video with audio.
26. WidgetLocker - Simply the most powerful lockscreen replacement app there is.
27. Watchdog Task Manager - Allows you to see which apps are acting up and need closing.
28. Skype - Free voice and video calls + IM to anyone else on Skype, whether they're on Android, iOS, Windows, Mac etc.
29. Tapatalk Forum App - If you're a member on multiple forums, then Tapatalk is the ultimate forum app you will find.
30. ProCapture - Capture photos and panoramas like a pro with the ProCapture camera app. ProCapture adds advanced features to the Android camera experience. Multiple advanced camera shooting modes supported: Timer, Burst, Reduced Noise, Wide Shot and Panorama.
31. Appy Geek - Appy Geek brings you all the leading tech news sources from the industry in a cleverly laid-out user interface, including TechRadar, Gizmodo, T3 Magazine, The Next Web and more... Staying at the cutting edge of innovation has never been so easy!
32. VLC for Android Beta - VLC media player is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player that plays most multimedia files as well as discs, devices, and network streaming protocols.
33. Dolphin Browser - Dolphin browser is the fastest, smoothest and best mobile browser, in my opinion. With Sonar voice recognition, gestures and multiple add-ons, this browser just gets better and better.
34. imo - Multiprotocol IM client - Support for Facebook Chat, Google Talk, Skype, MSN, ICQ/AIM, Yahoo Messenger, Jabber, Hyves, VKontakte and Steam
35. BetterBatteryStats - With BBS, you can analyze the behaviour of your phone, find out which apps are causing major battery drain and measure the effect of corrective actions.
36. app2zip - App2zip allows you to backup apps to a flashable zip file through CWM or TWRP. Simply choose which apps you want and then click GO.
37. Shorten - Simply a URL shortener which saves a lot of time rather than going onto the internet each time.
IF YOU'VE FOUND THIS POST, OR ANY OF THESE APPS USEFUL, BE SURE TO HIT THE THANKS BUTTON!
If you know any unique or useful applications, games or widgets please suggest them in this thread so I can check them out. If I think they're good, I'll add them to the list.
*NOTE* - If you wish to know what the best app is regarding your needs, ask in this thread and I, or others, will be able to help you out.
So, if you want to know what the best music player is, ask here and I'll suggest the best ones available.
If there are any apps that you feel shouldn't be in this list, please let me know and suggest a better one. I can then test it and maybe add it to the list, in place of the other one.
If you don't suggest a better app, I won't change anything.
[INFO]Must Have Apps For Galaxy SII
The idea to add widgets into this thread aswell was an idea taken from Goku80 and I hope you lot like it.
So, the list in this post is strictly for widgets. I'll add some widgets myself as a base, but as always feel free to suggest some of your favorite widgets and they may make it into this list.
1. Beautiful Widgets - Beautiful set of Widgets containing clock widget, clock and weather widget, weather widgets, date widgets and toggle widgets with skins/themes support!
2. Fancy Widgets - Personalize your Android home screen with highly customizable clock widgets, weather widgets, home (clock & weather) widgets, forecast widgets, and more with lots of customization options.
3. Ultimate custom widget (UCCW) - If you enjoy customizing the look of your homescreen then this is pretty much a MUST HAVE app for you. It allows the user to create their own pure custom clocks with a near endless array of options to customize it how they'd like. However you want it, you can make it with UCCW.
4. Desktop VisualizeR - Here's another really useful widget if you love to customize your screens. This gives you the ability to make shortcuts and widgets with any image you specify, rather than just the default logos. You can also use this app to give apps a custom icon of your own, which is handy if your icon design doesn't currently exist.
5. Minimalistic Text - Minimalistic Text is a widget app that displays information in a minimalistic way. It can be configured to display time, date, battery and weather information. The layout of the widget is highly customizable throughout.
6. Eye In The Sky Weather - This is for all those who like their weather clean, simple and beautiful. The app includes 12 of the best weather icon sets and the ability to add your own icon sets.
[INFO]Must Have Apps For Galaxy SII
Due to popular demand via PMs, I've decided to add a slot to this thread to display some of the best games we can get on our Android device.
As with the app list above, if there's a great game you'd like to be added to this list, let me know and I may well add it in
1. Pool Break Lite - If you like to play pool, snooker, billiards etc. on the go then this is a great app you. There are a few different variations to play in either single player or multiplayer online mode and even more variations if you buy the pro version.
2. FIFA 12 - This game speaks for itself. It's the latest mobile version of the FIFA franchise and is easily the best so far, with it showing vast improvements. There's a load of different cups and leagues to play through and with great graphics with no lag in the slightest.
3. World Series Of Poker - Probably the best game from EA (in my opinion). If you like to play poker I totally recommend this game. You can play Texas Holdem and Omaha in either cash games, tournaments or play for a WSOP bracelet as the main prize. Guest mode is now available for no login from Facebook is needed.
4. iAssociate2 - This is a good choice if you prefer a bit of a brain tester. iAssociate2 is a word association game you have to figure out which words and phrases are associated to each other. Sound easy? Give it a try and you can soon find out differently.
5. Need For Speed Most Wanted - Another brilliant addition to the EA family, Most Wanted finally brings one of the best racing experiences to Android. It's a brilliant game all round but the only thing it's lacking, in my opinion, is 'free roam' mode. But apart from that, it brings brilliant graphics and flawless gameplay.
6. Grand Theft Auto III - Grand Theft Auto III was a crime game which changed the future of gaming and is amazing to play on the go with our Androids. The full console game with great graphics, full features and surprisingly no lag considering it's such a huge game. Countless hours of gameplay, HD quality resolution and visually stunning graphics make this a must for our devices.

Autostarts - control what programs run and why
Droidwall - allow/disable internet access for each apps inc system
Adfree, no more ads, ever
Sd maid, deep cleaning

It also works great with Temple Run, if you play it. You can have it in landscape and get to see more of the path so it makes it much easier

Anyone got any suggestions for a gallery app? I don't mind the default gallery, but it would be good to see what else is out there.

I think I'll stick with Quickpic then cause it's definitely one of the more popular ones and does the job great.

I'll test this one out. I currently have McAfee and it's crap tbh.
Anyone else got any suggestions for mobile security apps?

ROM Toolbox Pro has been added to the list. It's a brilliant app and a definite must have for any root user.
It combines Titanium Backup, ROM manager, root explorer and others, all into one app. All that for the cheap price of £1.90

Thanks! looking for this app.
ps: can´t add "thanks" now but I´ll later
So far best file manager FX file explorer
i would like to add sslauncher.
in questions of customization it is almost unbeatable. in addition ist light, beautiful and definitely something else compared with other launchers like nova/apex/trebuchet.
worth a look :cyclops:
for navigation mireo don't panic .... works great for me ...
Not another one...

So senseless... not only ICS/JB.
And why no UCCW and minimalistic text in widgets area. THE two widgets - nothing else needed.
xenoAmp
The other kind of a music player.
for browsing the internet i could recomment the whole dolphin series and the boat browser.
ES file explorer is a perfect explorer for me, including all the root stuff.
and u deffinately should list the samba filesharing app! its so usefull if u dont want to conncect your phone via the usb cable and move some stuff on ur sd cards over wifi :good:
thanxx man
thanks for all these great apps
you could add Multi Mount SD-Card, a very useful app, especially for custom roms which have issues for SD card mounting
and why not Airdroid, to send files from computer to your phone by using wifi network =)
These are the apps that I always install:
Dolphin Browser
Norton Utilities
Solid Explorer
SoundBest Lite (music player)
WhatsApp
XDA App, QuickPic, AirDroid
Gesendet von meinem Nexus 7
Some standard applications i recommend:
- Airdroid
- Avast! ( has inbuild firewall only for rooted users!!)
- Root Browser lite ( very easy to use )
- Titanium Backup ( you know why )
- Cpu spy ( to make sure your phone enters deep sleep )
- Adaway ( easy, good and has an adware scanner for push ads )
- Android Assistant ( multitools +18 has a taskmanager, batch installer and you can wipe the data from all the applications you have used in two clicks)
- Kingston office free ( better than ThinkFree office and Office suite free and pro )
- Dropbox ( link phone and pc and upload photos and videos automaticly and share with others!! )
- Camera360 or other thirdparty camera app ( why? cuz in my opninion less buggy then stock )
Thats all for now!

Hi,
What are your must have apps and favorites for your Galaxy Grand. Post here and let us know what is nice, great or just COOL!
Here are a few of my personal favorites enjoy
------------------------------------------------------
SuperBeam - This app is the fastest way to transfer data from one android phone to another using WiFi direct or NFC. The fastest.
AdAway - Block the ads on your Android device.
QuickPic - Alternative Gallery for Android (a lot FASTER).
Shazam - Find the track by listening the music playing outside.
Swiftkey - Probably the best keyboard
Greenify - The awesome auto-hibernating battery saver
Titanium Backup - Most powerful backup tool on Android
Nova Launcher - Highly customizable, home screen replacement
MX Player - The best way to enjoy your movies.
IMDB - For movies freaks.
ESPNcricinfo - Best app for cricket fans.
Fotmob - Best app for football fans.
Clean Master - Frees Up Space on Your Android Device
Zedge - Includes ringtones and notification tones
WordWeb - In my opinion, THE best dictionary out there. Why? Because its offline. Doesn't require an internet connection!
