Finally have my phone where I like it with Redemption and Ive gone through the market only a million times. Chances are I over looked things and skipped others.
Basically looking for recommendations on system utilities, tools, programs, games, etc.
Battery monitor widget
Temp+CPU V2
Pew pew 2
X Construct
SetCPU (if your rom doesn't have built in OC)
Those are a few I'd recommend.

I have both Angry Birds from the Amazon app store. Later tonight after work Ill be checking some of these out. I havent heard of a few of them.
Well I like many of the ones that have already been mentioned but here is my list:
Used daily:
minimalistic text
scrollable news widget
Jorte
facebook for android
xda
yammer
finance (google)
amazon app store (as mentioned for free apps daily)
the weather channel
ADW (installed with CM7)
ADW Notifier (great addition to ADW to put hte bubble on gmail )
Gmail
Google Voice
Other apps that I use once in a while:
Movies (flixter)
TV Guide
IMDB
Score Mobile
SyncMyPics (only when running ASOP, HTC's People app does a great job with this on its own).
My Verizon
ASTRO Browser
Google Maps/ Street view/ Navigation
Games that I have played with (I am not a gamer so others probably have better picks):
Super Dynamite fishing (because of Opening fishing this past weekend this is my top pick )
Angreybirds (all)

Majesty (probably best app of the day from amazon that I got)
world series poker
LOL so after looking through my apps I have a TON that I have never even started... I guess I would say get amazon to get the free ones but try them to see if you like them LOL
have to go back and try a bunch of these now.
SoBBie
wave launcher and circlelauncher are a couple of really nice folder type widgets.

I updated to music 4.0 like is posted here.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...s-all-new-interface-better-controls-and-more/
I did lose my music, but was able to get it syncing again easily. Only thing... I don't have any playlists. I hope this isn't by design. I even tried creating a new playlist on the computer to see if it would find that one. No deal.
Anyone else??
Future FYI--
I don't know about different version support ie 4.0, but I have had good luck backing up/restoring playlists with MyBackUp Pro. So have never lost them--yet--

I can't install the apk...
Allways get the notice 'application was not installed'

you shouldn't install this music 4.0 if you expect everything to work.
This apk isn't designed to work with 2.3.x it is for ICS.
Works perfectly, just delete data after installing...

Heh, really. So you don't think it's appropriate to ask if other people are having the same problem? That seems a bit strict... especially when it is being reported that everything DOES work.
Sent from my Nexus One
Here's what I did to get the apk working (v4.0.1.501), with root access.
If you use Titanium Backup, use it to uninstall all existing versions of Music on your phone (this includes both the stock Music app and Music Beta).
Then install the apk.
Open the application, and you should see a notification asking for permission to connect to your Google account. Tap confirm.
Go to Settings, Applications, then Music and hit "clear data".
Go back to the Music app and your music should start syncing from the cloud.
If nothing happens, check that there is an item under Account Settings / Google account, for Google Music, and that sync is activated.
Hope it helps!

Hmmm, I still don't have mine. I even tried reinstalling. Maybe because I'm only 2.3.3... or I suppose who knows what it could be. Oh well... I can live with it this way for a couple of months I think. I really like the updated version.
Can anyone report if the usability of the player has been improved? I love the streaming feature of 3.0, but aside from that it is the worst music player I have ever touched. Stuff like not being able to create ad hoc playlists, the all songs from an artist playlist sorting the tracks in alphabetical order, and the pointless hiding of the notification bar in the landscape view make me want to punch someone every time I listen to music.
Finally figured it out. I downloaded the official app from the market, which I thought maybe would work... but it didn't. Then when maps 6.0 came out yesterday... well you all know the lack of internal space. So my N1 was so screwed, it wasn't even connecting to google servers and getting my mail because the space was so slow. I also noticed how the music app just kept saying it was syncing (the spinning circle).
I decided to cull the apps a little, and really free up some space. Well after about 20 minutes, finally my playlists appeared. So the music app was building a database, but then running out of space and stopping, and I guess it was leaving the playlists until the end. My database was also missing a lot of songs. An album might have been missing half the songs (of course they were all there on the web).
Just for the record, I'm not talking about pinning my music and downloading it or anything, I mean even just seeing the songs on the phone without offline access.
Hopefully I can live with almost no apps until January when I can get a GN.
so i installed the eco9 dibinged over the ec09 stock deodexed. all fine and dandy except if i try to play a vimeo video from a FB post or a tweet the browser force closes and when updating the service using *22899 soon as it is done the phone process force closes. I have tryed redownloading and installing the ec09 debinged and if i load the ec09 stock deodexed everything works fine. i just hate bing and all the bloat on there. any ideas what to try?

Pay for Root Explorer from the market. Then debloat and debing your phone manually. I can show you how if you buy Root Explorer.
Yea I have root explorer what do I need to do?
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA
In Root Explorer, navigate to /system/app. In this folder you will see a list of all the pre-loaded apps which were installed from the ROM you flashed. To debing, simply find the bing.apk and delete it (or move it to your sdcard if you want a backup). You can perform this same action with all apps installed on your phone. At first, start small. Start with apps you can easily identify by the name or icon. Also, if an .apk file has a cooresponding .odex file, move/delete that as well. You may get constant force closes after removing an app if it is running at the time you removed it. Simply reboot your phone.
WARNING: Removing necessary system apps could cause serious problems. So, start small. If you have a question as to if you can remove a particular app or not, ask in this thread and I'll let you know.
Awesome thank you!!! So far so good.

Your son? Starting him off a little young, ain't ya? It's gonna depend on what you want it to do. If it won't be making calls, then dialer tab, dialer storage, and contacts can all go., no internet, the radio can go. So on and so forth. What you gonna give him the ability to do? Then we can tell ta.

I want his rom to be able to call, text, games, etc bare bone os if possible. I just see so many files to take out but do not want it to fc the basics.

OK, I removed a boatload of bloatware using Root Explorer.
Still have a couple issues;
Even though I removed the .apk and corresponding .odex files, restarted phone, I still have these in apps, and all work when opened;
Facebook
IM
Verizon video
VCast tones
And, even though the Bing icon is out of apps, it still opens Bing Search with a long press on the search icon on phone.
Any thoughts on how to get rid of these?
I've went all thru Root explorer and can't find these files anywhere, but they're still on the phone.
Thanks
So liking the nexus 7 so far got a couple of questions that I can't seem to find in the manual or online
Home screen - Music is still using the default album art placeholder - although in the music app itself shows the album art correctly.
I've been into settings and apps and cleared the music app data - but its not updated the home page
Any ideas?
Also the google IO keynote where it showcased two games - dead trigger and Horn? - ive found dead trigger but cannot find the other one...
Dont know if anyone else watched it but any ideas what its called? on vid its 12.30mins in.
(cant link youtube due to age of account)
Thanks in advance for any replies
Horn is not released as of yet

Hi all. I couldn't find a thread about this for the Z3 and now many more of us have root (thanks to giefroot) I thought I'd start one.
These are apps that come with the stock Z3 rom and can be uninstalled with no ill-effects. I used Titanium Backup to remove these having backed them up first.

it is NOT safe to delete the Sony Album application!
I ran into issues with camera and whatsapp. Even worse is, that I somehow can't restore it. Neither with Titanium nor with system app remover.
thanks for the list anyway.

What problems did you experience? I've had no issues with either of those.
U probably need another Gallery APP like quickpic. I habe no issues either
If u remove Album app means simply install Quick Pick. Without a gallery app u will face problems for sure..
Uninstalled even Walkman?

sorry for late reply, just came back from snowboarding.
First, whatsapp had some proplems sharing pictures. Using google pictures solved that. Still, the camera app link to previously taken photos does not work. If I tap on it nothing happens. I can access the photos in google pictures app, though.
I deleted a few 100mbs and the only issue I face is an empty section in the selection tab that pops up sometimes. But it appeared after changing the bootanimation so its probably related to that. I will check after I complete the test cycle. An complete list would be nice. Maybe we can build something like that.
Just to note: if you uninstalling Xperia live wallpapers app, its not only remove live wallpapers and its app, you also lose functionality of locked screen wallpaper( you just cant set one), not a big deal but still bothered me

Album + Movie Creator
I've read that removing Sony's Album application will cause a lot of issues with camera functionality and other applications. Is this simply because people are neglecting to install an alternative gallery application, like QuickPic? Or are there still lingering issues with removing Sony's Album application, such as what @kuzcoTheGreat mentions with the Camera application's previous pictures link?
It's also referenced at this blog (lockone[dot]wordpress[dot]com/2014/11/24/xperia-z3-compact-disabling-movie-creator-will-kill-your-time-shift-video-camera-mode/ - can't link due to ten posts rule) that removing Movie Creator will kill the timeshift feature for videos. Can anyone else confirm this?

Just reinstall it from here via APK
I initially deleted it to use quickpic, but what I didn't like was the fact that if I wanted to reach my photos from the camera via the quick button in the corner, it wouldn't tie me to another photo viewing app... so I reinstalled it using the link above and it works ok.

@apSlain - see my above post. Try it yourself. Feel free to let us know. But I didn't see any issues w/ album deleted. You can do same thing with the Movie app - dl APK and install.
thanks for the link. Sadly, the apk does not work for me. Seems that I haven't deleted the app properly. Well, I can live with the misssing camera-app-link. So it is fine

So...I realized that while the APK works, the app deletes itself every time I reboot... and I hate not having the camera-to-album link working, so I just flashed the firmware again, and everything is working smoothly.
First of all, how were you able to delete the album app in the 1st place since you can only do so with root. In which case I assume you know a bit about what you're doing, so just do the same thing. I'm not sure why you'd have an issue, but in case you need some guidance...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58515452&postcount=915
Follow step 1, 2, skip 3, and do 4 BUT for .77 FW, NOT .93 FM
NOTE:
DO NOT select to wipe Data. This will make sure to keep your phone exactly in the state that it was when you began this process, except you'll have all the main apps you deleted that you didn't want, installed again, including album, which you want back.
IF:
You are experiencing issues with stupid error messages, you just need to reset some things, just follow steps 4, 5, and 6 here and you're good to go.

If you do all of that, I'm quite sure it'll work, and in this whole process you're preserving locked BL, and not doing anything.
If you're rooted... then disregard what I just said, and simply flash a pre-rooted FW, and you're set.

I gave it a shot, and yep, I can confirm that the Camera link to previously taken pictures is broken and timeshift video is broken. I'd assume that most other "creative" video functions would be broken with the removal of Movie Creator, too.
For these two applications, I'd probably say keep Movie Creator if you like having the extra video editing functions on the phone, and keep Album if you really want the previously-taken-photos link to be active. Maybe someone will be able to find a way to force-link a new application to that Camera function? :fingers-crossed:
Debloat these apps will gain speed or Battery Life?

Both.
The 2nd post is better.
Be sure to remove the .odex files too.

jup, will do, if I get my lazy ass to do the work As for right now, I can live with the missing link in camera app.
Thanks for all the advice!
@kuzcoTheGreat. Lol. It prob took more to write my explanation than to reflash your pre rooted fw.
