Nice post! There is just an error :
-Dice Player with Tegra 2 codec -> Tegra 3 on the HOX+
And personnally I find Kingsoft office better than Officesuite Pro HD, more functions, and Free!
And when I'll have my One X+ I'll take a look on this thread!

yeah sorry for that dice player. And these are just suggested apps, Out there are much more better alternatives.

ABP is nice indeed, though I think it's still beta-ish. I got quite some loading/Wifi issues after installing ABP. Sometimes things took like 20 seconds to load, even on Wifi :/

Yes, I changed to adway .. Will have a look ,soon

Screen off ? Are you crazy, that's the worst app. So much spam and ways cpu
bruk

Guys isn't MX player better? I also use juice defender... GO book by the GO developer is also wonderful... And suggest me some call recorder and. Mobi file reader

I use Dice Player, recommended on some thread.
And AdBlock alot people complaint, so I use AdAway, try see how.
Anyone recommend for Expenses Manager?

I like BeWeather over the stock weather (has radar).
I also use Brightest Flashlight. Comes in handy sometimes.
Also, Stock Quote's nice. Has a widget to show my retirement stocks activity.

Very nice to see these apps

Thanks for this post.

I have a few I can't dismiss in my phone, they are:
Smart Volume Control + - don't have to be searching for options and going from here to there to do something, this app has every major option of the phone in such a little amount of space. Volume control, abitily to create profiles, mute, turn on and off wifi, 3g and others.
Easy Money - manage my bank accounts.

Essential apps for Android
Thanks for this comprehensive list.
I one I that I couldn't live without...
#1 is Evernote With Evernote, all of your notes, web clips, files and images are made available on every device and computer you use. What I really like is it's simple and intuitive interface. nice clean design that allows you to make notes with photos and audio capabilities. I must admit it took a little time to learn all the capabilities it has but I now depend on it. It's a free app.

Poweramp. It's been on all of my android devices. No better player IMO.
I'm now using Neutron as my music player. It's not the easiest to use but the sound quality is amazing!
Other indispensable apps for me:
Adaway
Cache Cleaner NG
Root Explorer
Koush's SuperUser

I'd recommend you to use 'Droid Light' made by Motorola or 'Tesla LED' by the makers of Nova Launcher, because Brightest Flashlight requires ALMOST EVERY permission, from reading phone calls to Full Internet Access, whereas these apps don't use any such permissions

[Q] If you could only have 5 apps/ Recommend 5 apps

What would they be? Doesn't matter if they are free or you pay, just they are dependable and useful and work well with Nook Color?
Gmail/K9 (in other words, an email app. Gmail likes to crap out, so I switch to k9)
Perfect Viewer (the best comic/manga viewer)
Youtube
Dolphin HD (wish I could say Firefox was my go to browser, but it still doesn't work well)
Rockplayer (wish it was VLC. WHERE ARE YOU VLC?!)
Winamp
shoot. I forgot about Doggcatcher. I might have swap Youtube out for Doggcatcher.
MangaWhat! Great manga reader until Viz Media and the ilk get a nook app going.
Root Explorer Talk about getting full control of the nook color
Dropbox No longer need to transfer things from my computer by usb cable
Perfect Viewer Totally agree this thing is great
Xda Developers Premium Need I say more?
Gmail
Dolphin HD
Astro
Youtube HQ
VLC convert and stream (and VLC on your computer)
Should take care of most of your needs on a stock rooted Nook.
I more than five that I highly recommend
1. IMO - free multi chat app - runs great
2. Manga Watcher - Love it amazing for my Naruto fix
3. Pulse News and MoreGood News HD - both free
4. Dropbox - cloud storage and then some - free
5. Yahoo! Mail works amazing on nook
6. Advanced Task Killer - Kills apps from running on the background and taking up precious memory
7. CraigsNotification - free craigslist app that I love
8. Facebook is fun
9. dolphin brower or xcope 6 works amazing
10.Pageonce - bill management
1. Newsrob for RSS feeds
2. Root Explorer
3. Plume for Twitter
4. Angry Birds Seasons for obvious reasons
5. Titanium Backup
I also have to recommend Manga Watcher because it's so good, but more of a preference than necessity.
Rooting/Modding Apps
1. Titanium Backup - Clear app data, backup apps
2. Rom Manager - Clockwork Recovery saves all
3. Autostarts - prevents apps from launching by themselves
4. Hot reboot - I'm lazy and this is a big time saver
Day to day/productivity apps
1. Zeam launcher - best launcher for the nook, clean and easy to use
2. Dolphin browser mini or HD. Best browser for android, hd or mini depends on personal preference
3. Dropbox - Perfect for syncing files between my PC, Mac at work, Droid X and Nook
4. Tapatalk pro - for reading forums
5. Pandora - cos music rules

I can't seem to get Zeam to work properly.
I use ADW and decided to try Zeam and I choose it as my home but there's no dock bar. There's nothing on the workspaces actually, except for the standard nook color bar (i'm on a stock rooted) and the three dots at the top to tell you what screen you're on.
I tried restarting it and nothing. When i try to add a shortcut, the screen flicks as if it were going to bring up a menu, but it just goes back to the main screen
:T
1.. button savior - softkeys is fugly
2.. clockworkmod - installing new roms is fun, back up is important
3.. root explorer - too many reasons
4.. market - for obvious reasons
5.. adb/sdk tools - id hate to think what id have to do w/o em

Apps
Hi,
Here are my most used:
Button Savior - I like it best of the 'on screen' button apps.
NewsRob - google rss compatible news reader. night mode (paid)
FBReader - epub ebook reader. Has nice night mode and pleasant to use.
Repligo PDF reader - seems to reflow PDF text the best. (Paid)
Calibre Library - (Paid) to access Calibre ebook library on PC over WiFi.
FBSync - syncs the FBReader library to Dropbox, including books and progress.
Good for when you are reloading too many ROMs!
XDA-Developers (or premium) - for reading these forums!
Quick settings - Lives in notification bar to adjust brightness/WiFi etc.
Other:
Dropbox - handy for everything. Cloud Storage at least 2GB with easy access.
Terminal emulator - for accessing the linux command line.
Astro file manager - for file system browsing.
Screen filter - dims screen past system dimming levels. Lives in notification
bar and as a widget(?)
Simi Clock - a clock widget.
On my phone I also use Evernote for capturing quick notes/sharing with
my other devices.
Peter
Mine
File Expert
RockPlayer lite
DolphinHD
iheartradio
FancyWidget
System:
Launcher Pro Plus (Great alternative launcher, milti-docks, transitions)
Clockwork mod (Dat backup)
Rom Manager (Flashing CWM, Roms)
Spare Parts (IF not on your device, get it)
cpu tuner (Great free version of set cpu)
Utilities:
Color Flashlight (Sooo bright)
QQ player (dem videos)
Evernote (Note taking app)
imediashare (Connect to devices via wireless, ps3, 360)
Battery Booster (Info on battery)
APPS:
NHL gamecenter (Cause hockey is awesome)
Pules (Great news agrigator)
XDA
Dolphin HD (Hands down best browser for the nook color)
Quick system info (Monitor your cycles and memories)
Games:
Meteor Blitz (3D top-down shooter, my personal fav... it's $1 people)
PewPew (2D Top-down shooter)
Crystal Defenders (Final Fantasy inspired tower defense)
Gun Bros (pure awesome)
Dungen Hunter (Simple diablo-type 3D action-arcade)
Dolphin Mini ( (I prefer it over its bigger brother. Sleek, but functional. Smoothest scrolling I've found)
Launch-X Free (a widget that pretty much replaced my app launcher)
Öffi (In Germany, this is a life-saver. Even better on my Wildfire. See if it works for your place)
Pulse (Most used app hands down)
Fleya (Breathtaking Fluid simulator)
Firefox - Man, I love this app. The syncing, the navigation... everything
Pulse - Just perfect for the Nook
Aldiko - Great for my library books (free legal e-books!!)
Dropbox - I use it for everything
ReadItLater - I just started using this app, but I already see a huge value in having an "everywhere" synced list. I can use the browser extension/plugin to throw pages to my nook for offline reading when there's no internet... and I can "share to" pages from my nook for websites that have content that my nook can't handle or need a PC (I read a lot of indie game feeds in pulse).

Good thing you kept it to only 5 apps.
Gmail
Dolphin Browser HD
Kindle
Aldiko
ACV comics viewer
1. Firefox - I live with its flaws as it has the best browser GUI IMHO
2. Quick Office HD - from the Norton thread, kinda a life saver
3. Market Nook App - I don't read books, but you gotta show the page turn animation to people over 40 or they don't believe you have a tablet (no offense)
4. Angry Birds - The under -40 show off app
5. Snesoid lite - Mario Kart on Nook
Honorable mention: AirAttack HD Lite, Doodle Bowling, Genial Writing, FPse, Glow Hockey, tv.com
Best on the computer Nook related app:
Handbrake- for encoding video for the nook

I don't know why the poster wanted five. I like to see what people use best and especially if they say why the app is useful even if its more than five.

Pulse is a gorgeous application, but I think Engadget's one of those sites that deserves it's own app. I'm not saying this due to differences in formatting, but the ease of access to the comments which are the heart of the Article.
Great thread thanks for posting
Here are the 50 or so apps I run (in the pics at the end of my post).

Your favorite apps/games for your Note?

Since this thread is in nearly every other phone subforum, I though I'd start one here. I've been through this relatively small section and didn't see this specific thread, so I started it up.
What are your favorite apps and games on your Note (whether i717 or visiting GT-N7000'ers)? I'll start it off.
Apps
Utilities and System
Adfree (requires root) - blocks Ads across most of the phone
aDownloader - Torrent downloader
Airdroid - great app to remote in to phone, transfer files, etc.
androidlost - track missing phone (not convinced this is working properly on Note)
androidVNC - great VNC app
Barcode scanner - scan QR codes and standard 2D barcodes
Beautiful widgets - it is what is
Camscanner - take photos of documents and convert to PDF (awesome)
Connectbot - SSH client for Android
Dropbox - awesome
Dropsync - makes Dropbox actually a 2 way sync - worth the $$
ES File Explorer - great file system browser / utility
LCD Density Modder Pro (requires root) - lets you easily change LCD density
LogMeIn - remote control computers from your device - free service
Root Explorer - a staple for any rooted device
Screencast (requires root) - make screencasts from your phone
Speedtest - it is what it is
Titanium Backup - the Swiss army knife for rooted devices
Ubuntu installer (root) - run a full version of Ubuntu on your phone (via VNC)
Ultra GPS logger - awesome GPS utility
WiFi tracker - great utility for spectrum analysis of WiFi hotspots
ES File Explorer - great file explorer. It can be a root explorer if you have root access.
FOXFI - Tethering app
NetEye Camera - watch IP camera at home or work.
Media
doubleTwist - for those having iTunes withdrawal or if you like a clean interface, doubleTwist with Airsync are great
Flixster - Check movie times, reviews, trailers
IMDb - the famous international movie database on your phone
MX Video Player - an awesome video player that can handle most every codec
Pocket casts - fantastic podcaster with scheduling and other options
Soundhound - great way to listen and find out the name of 'that song'
TuneIn Radio Pro - stream radio stations over IP on your phone
Others not categorized
Here are some other great apps I have that I didn't stick somewhere above. They are either fairly well known, or you will likely have come across them on the Market, I mean the "Play store."
Amazon - if you are not sure what this is, welcome to Earth.
Amazon Kindle - its the Kindle app
Antennas - log RF signals from both cellular and WiFi hotspots near you
Camera ZOOM FX - Decent camera replacement app
Craigslist - Decent Craigslist app
Currents - Pretty neat magazine like app from Google
DavDrive - Access your phone via WebDAV; similar to Airdroid, but I find it simpler to use.
Google Earth
Evernote - Good note syncing app
Facebook - Yep
Googles - Take photos of objects and Google can search their database for what it is
Google+
GPS Status - Another GPS utility
GPS Test - Another GPS utility
ICS Keyboard - Great keyboard replacement for the stock one in my opinion
imo - Great multi-chat client (free too!)
Marriott - If you stay here, actually not a bad app
Netflix - I don't pay for their service anymore, but if you do, you likely have this
NPR News - Great app for listening to NPR and reading some of their featured stories
OpenSignal - Another signal mapping utility
OpenTable - Reserve a table at a nearby restaurant right from your phone
Pandora - Awesome music discovery tool
PayPal - Yep
Quadrant Standard - A great way to measure how fast (or slow) your phone is
RF Signal Tracker - I like RF signal tools, but I am an engineer so there you go
RunKeeper - Great app for running and tracking your exercise
Skitch - OK app that works with Evernote to take advantage of the s pen
Skype - Hopefully Microsoft doesn't ruin it
SwiftkeyX - Predictive test keyboard replacement for Note
SwitchPro Widget - Create widgets that let you do lots of things
Unit Converter - 'Nuff said
WebSharing - an Airdroid like app, I don't use it very often, but it is an alternative[/QUOTE]
Mantano Reader - Great app for reading any ePub or PDF I throw at it. It also has great annotation support and a recent update just added cloud support. Sadly, the cloud is a separate fee.
Pocket Informant - Great for events, tasks, or general notes. It is expensive though.
3G Watchdog- Nice for watching all my data consumption
ScreenFilter- Great for saving both battery and usage at night.
Andy-83 - wonderful TI-83 calculator emulator. If you have your TI-83 rom, this is a much better alternative to paid scientific calculator apps on the market (my opinion).
WAZE - driving social navigation (see where the cops are hiding)
Ulysse Speedometer - Super nice dash trip meter
Saving this in case the list get's big and updating.
I just bought Tasker yesterday, and boy, is it great. I had it on my Nook in December/January but I never really took the time to figure it out, but after reading some threads here on XDA, I finally understand it.
I like:
riptide gp(thanks for suggestion)
shadowgun
dead space
turbofly 3d
backstab hd
pretty bada$$ games but very large in size.

No problem. Riptide GP is really fun
I last played Backstab HD on my Nook Color; it has a really good storyline, but how does it look good on our Super AMOLED screens?
I'll also have to check on the three in between. I tried Dead Space when I had my iPhone 4 but I could never seriously game on the iOS.
I'm really enjoying games that I can play using the S-Pen, like Plants vs Zombies or Sentinel 3. Playing classics on emulators is my favorite though, playing Star Fox 64, the first Resident Evil, and Twisted Metal 2 at the moment
Do any of you have a gamepad/controller that you prefer?
Get the classic Nintendo controllor. They conneccr by Bluetooth, but you need root. They also only work for emulators.

I'd really like something with an analog, tried using my ps3 controller via the sixaxis app and that worked well most of the time, but no analog support yet.

Backstab looks pretty good, but so far dead space and shadowgun are the two best looking ones to me, not too happy about their size, some of them range from 500+mb to 800+mb additional download to play the game, but I can understand from the graphics quality that it would be that large.

- Google Maps (even on the iPhone this was by far my favorite app)
- Calendar (I love the new look, wish I could get this on my Galaxy S II & my Galaxy 10.1)
Google Maps has always been a reliable application. I used to go to other alternatives, but the free navigation on Android is incredible.
My new apps:
ES File Explorer - great file explorer. It can be a root explorer if you have root access.
Andy-83 - wonderful TI-83 calculator emulator. If you have your TI-83 rom, this is a much better alternative to paid scientific calculator apps on the market (my opinion).
I'd love to see more opinions.
I'm new, hard to sift through the thousands of Apps for what's good, especially taking into consideration our larger high definition screens.
I use:
Taptu news reader
NoLed screen notifications
ESPN ScoreCenter
Poweramp music player
World of Goo

I thought I would add in my two cents here for those that are new to Android. My one word of advice is don't be afraid to pay for apps - there are some amazing applications that are the cost of a soft drink or beer and they really make the experience much better.
Utilities and System
Adfree (requires root) - blocks Ads across most of the phone
aDownloader - Torrent downloader
Airdroid - great app to remote in to phone, transfer files, etc.
androidlost - track missing phone (not convinced this is working properly on Note)
androidVNC - great VNC app
Barcode scanner - scan QR codes and standard 2D barcodes
Beautiful widgets - it is what is
Camscanner - take photos of documents and convert to PDF (awesome)
Connectbot - SSH client for Android
Dropbox - awesome
Dropsync - makes Dropbox actually a 2 way sync - worth the $$
ES File Explorer - great file system browser / utility
LCD Density Modder Pro (requires root) - lets you easily change LCD density
LogMeIn - remote control computers from your device - free service
Root Explorer - a staple for any rooted device
Screencast (requires root) - make screencasts from your phone
Speedtest - it is what it is
Titanium Backup - the Swiss army knife for rooted devices
Ubuntu installer (root) - run a full version of Ubuntu on your phone (via VNC)
Ultra GPS logger - awesome GPS utility
WiFi tracker - great utility for spectrum analysis of WiFi hotspots
Games
Dead Space
Golf Extreme - Easy golf game, but great for killing time
HomerunBattle3D - OK baseball game. Similar to Golf Extreme (currently cheap!)
Grand Theft Auto 3 - A ported version of GTAIII, runs great
Shadowgun - great shooter game
(As you can see, I am not much of a gamer)
Media
doubleTwist - for those having iTunes withdrawal or if you like a clean interface, doubleTwist with Airsync are great
Flixster - Check movie times, reviews, trailers
IMDb - the famous international movie database on your phone
MX Video Player - an awesome video player that can handle most every codec
Pocket casts - fantastic podcaster with scheduling and other options
Soundhound - great way to listen and find out the name of 'that song'
TuneIn Radio Pro - stream radio stations over IP on your phone
Others not categorized
Here are some other great apps I have that I didn't stick somewhere above. They are either fairly well known, or you will likely have come across them on the Market, I mean the "Play store."
Amazon - if you are not sure what this is, welcome to Earth.
Amazon Kindle - its the Kindle app
Antennas - log RF signals from both cellular and WiFi hotspots near you
Camera ZOOM FX - Decent camera replacement app
Craigslist - Decent Craigslist app

Google Earth
Evernote - Good note syncing app
Facebook - Yep
Googles - Take photos of objects and Google can search their database for what it is
Google+
GPS Status - Another GPS utility
GPS Test - Another GPS utility
ICS Keyboard - Great keyboard replacement for the stock one in my opinion
imo - Great multi-chat client (free too!)
Marriott - If you stay here, actually not a bad app
Netflix - I don't pay for their service anymore, but if you do, you likely have this
NPR News - Great app for listening to NPR and reading some of their featured stories
OpenSignal - Another signal mapping utility
OpenTable - Reserve a table at a nearby restaurant right from your phone
Pandora - Awesome music discovery tool
PayPal - Yep
Quadrant Standard - A great way to measure how fast (or slow) your phone is
RF Signal Tracker - I like RF signal tools, but I am an engineer so there you go
RunKeeper - Great app for running and tracking your exercise
Skitch - OK app that works with Evernote to take advantage of the s pen
Skype - Hopefully Microsoft doesn't ruin it
SwiftkeyX - Predictive test keyboard replacement for Note
SwitchPro Widget - Create widgets that let you do lots of things
Unit Converter - 'Nuff said
WebSharing - an Airdroid like app, I don't use it very often, but it is an alternative

This list looks good. I just rooted my RAZR (I was a little nervous about it) but will look into ROM Toolbox. I have seen it mentioned several times in the forums. Same thing with Bootmenu. I downloaded Tasker about a week ago and am still trying to figure it out...can you recommend any good tutorials? I am not

Launcher - currently using Nova, and absolutely loving it. Used Apex for quite a while.
Music player - I purchased Poweramp, and use(d) that for quite a while. Really liking n7player, as well. Dood's Music Streamer is great for listening to Grooveshark; although I think it was recently pulled from the market.
Games - Bad Piggies has me hooked currently (I'm a sucker for well-polished games, as well as building anything). Flow Free is one of those games I can just keep playing through.
Browser - Used ICS Browser+ and loved it, but it doesn't work on my current ROM. Quick ICS Browser seems to be functionally similar. The default Browser isn't bad, either. For some reason, I just can't get myself to use Chrome.
Utilities/Misc - utilitas for flashlight, etc. For it's brilliant premise and usefulness, even though I'm sure everyone already uses it, I just love JuiceDefender. It works on such a simple premise and just works (TM).
Game - Aces spades
Calendar - CalenGoo
Clock - SiMi Clck
Launcher - Apex
Music Player - Motocast
Sports - NFL Mobile
Cooking - Allrecipes
Money Saver - GasBuddy

You can download/upload files from/to any computer wireless
