List of top 10 apps that require root - XPERIA X10 General

Now that I'm rooted, I'd like to start up a thread where users can name their top 10 apps where it requires root, I'm sure there are others that have just rooted and would like to see what they've been missing.
Here is mine so far:
ShootMe
Titanium Backup

MyBackup Pro + Root = Awesome!
ShootMe
Market Enabler/Access
Barnacle wifi tether
Ninjamorph

whats so good about ninjamorph

Mine are:
Adfree
Busybox
MyBackupPro
Root Explorer
SuperUser
Titanium Backup
xRecovery

Adfree, TitaniumBackup pro, root explorer and cache mate for root are the essentials.

titanium backup
barnacle wifi tether
root explorer
ad free
still thinking on some more

continuing : setCPU, terminal emulator, cachemate

Type fresh - to change your fonts
Root explorer -for editing system files
Reboot widget - does what you'd expect it to do!
And you don't need root for flashlight!

it is true, root explorer also works without root the phone! but not operates at 100 x 100! cmq remains one of the applications required to have and use. http://www.appbrain.com/app/root-explorer-(file-manager)/com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

Either buy it or use a free alternative. Stop ripping off developers. Also, read XDA rules regarding warez

Please don't encourage warez. A few dollars for a good app is well worth it and will not impact one's budget in any way unless you go on a mass app buying spree.
If you legitimately cannot afford it, there are plenty of great free alternatives

Did you also download the free version? Pro download is only the registration key! You need to install both.

Is there anything out there with the ability to backup that doesn't require rotting?
my backup pro, it's what i use tbh i dont always root

No because in order to do a full backup you need R/W Access to the /system and /Data folders
See above you don't have to have root to read only to write.
most of the apps you will back up won't need write access check it out on the market or try it yourself

AFAIK You need root to read from /system and /data/data/ but maybe im wrong. i know for a fact that you need root to even read /system. go check with a file explorer that dosent need root
your right with what your say but for backup you won't need access you don't need to back up system apps anyway.

I was trying to find it in the Market but the Market app installed in ny Arc shows only free apps. Btw, I have a rooted Arc. Is that the reason why? Thanks for responding to my query! ;-)

I also see the free apps only and dont see the paid i guess maybe because there is no market for the region we are in.

Install it?
If your new installation does not recognize old one, just remove stock Root Explorer with System App Remover.
Buy it, Ratch is actually really naughty and he should not have put that in his rom in the first place.

Here, at the end of this post ("Clean ROM" section): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15391697&postcount=5
And I recommend you Titanium Backup. The free version just works.
i recommend the es file explorer as an alternative.
use titanium explorer
backup the apps you wanna remove and then remove them
even if you run into probs you can restore from the backup
