Transdroid (0.13.5) - Remote torrent UI
TuneWiki (1.7) - I mostly just use it to listen to shoutcast stuff

Yelp (1.2)
Yeah I've been looking for a utorrent app too. I'll have to get on this. Oh I forgot about shazam, too, that's a pretty cool one.
Looking forward to biowallet though, looks potentially impressive. It's an iris scanner for phone security and password storage.
It's called transdroid.
WINNER - Transdroid

Definitely interested in getting this working.
Anyone know of any documentation about setting up the custom searches in this one? I can't get Torrent-Fu working for torrentz.com but am able to get Transdroid working fine.
Best App
Better Cut is the best app!!
my favorites are
ES File Explorer, Handcent, Advanced Task Killer, Antivirs, Documents to Go, Gmote, Google Goggles, Layar Reality Browser, Mediafly, NFL Mobile, Shazam, Snesoid, TerraTime, Tweetcaster, Wireless Tether for Root, DroidLive Lite, and the Yellow Pages, Texas Hold Em Red Poker Club, and Raging Thunder is an impressive 3D driving game, and Rockout
Does anyone know if a wallpaper is available that allows you to apportion areas of the screen to launch an app, ie an office background, touching the clock opens the clock app, the desk opens your office app, etc? I assume it's possible with live wallpapers that interact with touch?

I don't think you can do this with a wallpaper/live wallpaper, but you can do it by using Desktop Visualizer. (In the Market)
Once you've download the app, you can use the DVRSizeConfigTool (in the Market) and the Image-Crop tool to create a cool looking portioned out screen with different widgets. It's kind of hard to explain, but once you watch the video, you'll see what I'm talking about. The process is pretty confusing, but I was able to do it using a tutorial on YouTube. I hope this is what you were thinking of..
Edit: I don't have enough posts to be able to post links, but if you PM me, I will send you the link to the YouTube video tutorial. You can also search "How To Use DVR Image Crop - Desktop VisualizeR" in YouTube and the video is by 'biipub'.
Look at "Launcher Wall" in the market.
I haven't actually used it, but it can launch apps apparently.
Thanks guys, I think either one of these will suit, just gonna have to pick which one....
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I guess, I won't support this thread anymore. Our device is not good anymore, and our SGM's can't use all new apps because of Arm v6 processor and only Adreno 200 GPU. But anyway, if you have any good ideas - write it here.
I hope, that this thread was useful for everyone. Maybe I'll back, but I guess, it will happen only when I will buy new phone, so I won't back coming soon. Thanks for everything.
Hi. I had very much problems with apps. I didn't know which is better and which are really usable. So I will try to help you with apps - this is list of the best (in my opinion) apps:
For all users
Everything for browsing:
Browsers:
1. Opera Mini: The fastest browser for Android, but it doesn't support flash, JavaScript and etc.
2. Skyfire: An alternative browser with flash support, but quite slow.
3. Opera Mobile: The fastest browser if you using Wi-Fi. Supports flash and JavaScript.
4. Dolphin Browser® HD: Quite fast browser, but slower than browsers from Opera. But this browser is very customizable, has very much Add-ons, themes and etc.
5. Dolphin Browser® Mini: Something between Opera Mini and Dolphin browser HD. This browser is slower than Opera Mini, but faster than Dolphin HD. Also it is more customizable than Opera Mini, but not as customizable as Dolphin HD.
Social:
1. Facebook: If you are using Facebook you must have it.
2. Tapatalk: For going to the forums like this.
3. Skype: I think you know what is it. It's just a mobile version...

5. K-9 Mail: The best email client for Android.
6. TweetCaster for Twitter: The best Twitter app. Simple. Fast. Many features.
7. WhatsApp Messenger: With this app you can chat with your freinds for free (requires internet). Also there is a group chat.
Other apps for better browsing experience:
1. FeedR: A RSS reader that works as both an app and a widget.
2. 3G watchdog: This app shows your data usage. This app is the best, because it doesn't include Wi-Fi data and shows notification.
Customizing:
Launchers:
1. Go Launcher EX: I think it's the best Launcher. Many functions (I think the best is folders in app drawer, or hiding apps in app drawer), many themes. But it eats more RAM than other launchers.
2. Launcher Pro: This launcher is very fast, but not as customizable as Go Launcher. But if you want the best performance you shuold use this launcher.
Homescreen:
1. Fancy widgets: The best free app for widgets (like htc style clock and etc.).
2. Beatiful Widgets: The best of the best widgets app (But this app costs).
3. PicSpeed HD Wallpapers: This app has very much high quality wallpapers.
Multimedia:
Music:
1. MixZing Media Player: If you don't like stock music player or just need more functions like equalizer and etc.
2. doubleTwist Player: One of the best (or maybe the best ) music player for Android.
3. MX Video Player: Really good video player. Customizable, nice and fast. P.s. you must download Arm v6 codec to use this player.
4. SoundHound: If you are listening to radio or just music from somewhere and you don't know name of the song - just open this app and it will show song that you're listening name.
5. Shazam: Something like SoundHound, but it is better if you are listening rock, rap, pop and other non-electronic music.
6. TuneIn Radio: The best Internet radio app. If it works in Lithuania it must work everywhere .
Photos and videos:
1. Camera Zoom FX: Camera app which has very much effects and functions.
2. Vignette: One more camera app, which also has many effects and features.
3. PicSay - Photo Editor: I think it is the best photo editor for Android Phone.
4. QuickPic: This is video and photo gallery. It has more functions and it's faster than stock gallery.

4. Fake-Call Me: With this app you can make a fake call, so you can get out of awkward situations .
5. avast! Mobile Security: One of the best (or maybe the best) antivirus app for Android. Why? Because it has a lot of features, blocks many viruses and it is faster than others.
