Guest ValiantSaint Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 (edited) Hi everyone, as a Android noob (As most of you have sadly found out!) I was wondering what your five most loved apps are for your Blade? As I'm looking for some decent ones, and have no idea where to start, Cheers : ) Edited May 27, 2011 by ValiantSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Liesse Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 HotUKDeals Droid because I like a bargain and I like shopping. Opera Mobile because its faster Plume for Twitter best Twitter app I've found G Reader Fullest featured Google RSS reader client I've tried, keeps me up to date with blog posts, news and anything else - most things have an RSS feed these days. G SMS Pro Customisable, full featured SMS client that is a pleasure to use and shows I-Phone style conversations. I was introduced to it as I use LanceLH's wonderful Swedish Spring Remix Gingerbread theme Circle battery that comes with it as the default SMS app. Great choice. Bonus Game choice: Game Dev Story charming little strategy game that's perfect for the gamer on the go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mushroom_Lord Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 *whispers* I find GoLauncher faster than Launcher Pro Thats odd, I find that both home screen transitions and the app drawer are faster on LauncherPro :P (compared to Go Launcher Ex) I wonder why we are getting such different results!

Guest Michealtbh Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Go Launcher is great, very functional, but very laggy on CM7 Add Flext9 to my list, amazing keyboard Edited May 28, 2011 by Michealtbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I 'spose its possible. I'm on Cm7 too! Anyhow I like the (imo) more functionality of launcherpro. However GoLauncher would be good if you used all the other Go apps I 'spose :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
