My most used and best download
1. Handcent SMS
2. Google voice
3. ASTRO file manager

there are many more but these i use the most frequently

For non HTC phones i like
1. Launcher Pro by Frederico Carnales

'Tis a spammer sir. He tries to make normal looking posts, but his goal is to have people click the link in his signature.

download google sky

MediaArtist · 11-25-2010, 03:18 PM

Anyone know of a good scheduler/personal assistant app that is better than the included calender?

jeremicium · 11-25-2010, 03:23 PM

3 (aka Cubed music player)...also download the associated concert and release apps which look at your music library and gives you a list of concerts of all artists in your library within a certain distance of your location.

Agree with google sky...very cool.

My bank app is great (USAA)

I have mobiledefense which allows you to lock your phone via internet from another computer and track your phone through your gps by enabling it if it's off. Very useful if your phone gets stolen or lost.

eaglesfan83 · 11-29-2010, 01:04 PM

angry birds.....

seriously though

I use my bank App (BOA), taskkiller, mobiledefense, shopsavvy the most

Couch · 11-29-2010, 01:29 PM

I think the task managers are just a battery waster. Android does a pretty good job on its on.

I like XiiaLive for listening to local sports talk.

I rarely played games, but yes angry birds is so addicting.

double_j · 11-29-2010, 01:33 PM

Live Poker if that's your sort of thing. You'll play against live opponents (fake money) and the action is consistently of higher quality than the free play tables on pokerstars, etc.

It's free and recent updates have made the gameplay very stable.

Don't know why there's nothing comparable on iTunes.

intensee92 · 11-30-2010, 02:10 AM

Advanced Task Killer
gmob 365 (you can download apps and games for free instead of pay for them)
Appplanet also does the same as above
Google Goggles
Pandora
Shazam
Barcode Scanner
Astro File Manager

Just really depends on what you want to do with it...

Games wise, angry birds is pretty addicting. Blow up is fun. Shoot U. If you're into scrabble, wordfued is what you want to get.

karliejai · 12-01-2010, 02:34 AM

dl app planet off of websites and u can get apps for free

iBoost · 12-01-2010, 11:53 PM

Get rooted(not an app) install custom rom then get setcpu(app) you'll love your phone.

I use to miss my iphone like crazy till I went to the darkside with android. I love it.

Shieldze1025 · 12-02-2010, 08:04 AM

Advanced task killer
Google maps (if it doesnt already have it)
Google sky map is pretty cool but serves no purpose unless you're and astronomer
Shazamm
Pandora

Games: Jewels, Soduku Free and I just got Angry birds - pretty sweet game but the HTC Eris is too slow to run it

infinitekidM2C · 12-02-2010, 01:19 PM

Yelp...shows all the local eateries, shopping, etc, with real person reviews in your local area

guardianangel3290 · 12-02-2010, 02:01 PM

Shortyz- all the daily crossword puzzles
Dolphin Browser HD- much better than the default
Handsent SMS- Much more user friendly
Lookout- great security program
Advanced Task Killer- Your battery will die in hours without it
Gameboid w/ Rom Buddy- allows you to turn your phone into a Gameboy Advanced and download and play any game on the system (pokemon FTW!)
Google Maps-
Movies- uses your location to give nearby theaters and times
TuneIn Radio- alllows you to stream radio stations from all over the world (except the clear channel stations)
