Essential Apps

[shannonkish]

What apps are absolutely essential for you to have on your Fascinate?

For me--

Google Navigation
Taskos
Snaptu
SMS Backup
Handcent SMS
Twitter
Mobile Banking


I have some others that are just fun to have--

Pattern Wallpapers (lets you choose from thousands of patterns for wallpaper)
FML
Personal DVR (which will record available tv programs to your phone for viewing later... saved me from boredom as I was getting new tires yesterday.)
Ebay
Facebook
Zedge

Although I don't have a Fascinate but Appbrain.com would be on the top off my list on my phone and computer...with this app on my computer I can find all the apps I need and more and sync it to my phone.

I don't download too many apps, trying to keep the phone as clean as possible, but of the ones I have installed, these are at the top of the list:

Extended Controls
AndFTP
SMS Popup (popps up SMS messages in a little window, lets you reply without having to go into the full MMS app)
CIFS Manager (lets you mount Samba/SMB network shares right on the phone)

My favorite and most useful app is OI Shopping List OI Shopping list - Android app on AppBrain. If I don't make a list, I'm back to the store 3 or 4 times a week, so it saves me time.

What is the benefit of using NoLED?

Thank you in advance.

NoLed is a visual notification app that pops up small light on your screen. I use it as well. Works great for gmail, sms, missed calls etc. I will not work if you have your phone set to vibrate though on some of the notifications. I had trouble with yahoo mail as well so I added K9 mail. It works great for that.

Basically compensates for the lack of the LED notification some phones have.
