I don't think I'm making full use of my phone what with no ads and bare minimum others to read comics, transfer files wirelessly, see movie sessions and tv program...there's about it. Maybe a news app and social



How about you guys

Llama is a great profile switching app, check it out, you can do time based profile switching (eg at work between 9 to 5) or cell tower location based off it's ID (eg the tower near home trigger the home profile)

i have had my SGS2 for a few months now and i am noticing a couple of annoying glitches... random attach of "caps" mode, the fact that despite the fact that my friends name is jo wright, it sorts it as wright jo and the fact that (with virgin) i get shitty data connection?

anyone else have data issues with the sgs2? (Sorry to hijack thread hehe)

Quickpic - way better than stock gallery app
PowerAMP - paid music app, way better than winamp
Miren Browser - fantastic, clean browser
Quick Settings - window popup to quickly change some phone settings
BetterBatteryStats - unlike other battery usage apps, this shows wakelocks to determine what is keeping phone awake - the major source of battery drain and something that the other apps can't show
Sound Manager - set time-specific sound profiles (e.g. low vol ringtone, sms sound off at night)
Tubemate - download youtube vids
Auto SMS - can auto-respond with custom SMS (e.g. "in meeting, will get back to you") if someone from your whitelist calls and/or texts you.
Adfree - adblock for rooted phones
PassItForward - very simple sms forwarding app if you have multiple phones
Tasker - very powerful scripting/event-based app (e.g. turn off lock-screen and bluetooth if in range of your home wifi, turn on wifi if detected specific cell tower near your house)
XBMC (offical version) - wirelessly control xbmc if watching shows/movies on TV connected to PC
