Almost all of my favorite apps were found just by looking at other peoples postings. Some were found by just playing around. I thought we all could share our ever so long list. Enjoy.;)

That's a lot of apps.

It sure is, and I've seen a few other lists like that in here.

I've got Brick Breaker "full" and Spare Parts.

That's it. The stock applications in Eris cover a wide range of functions and none else are needed by me, although some mentioned here and there seem intriguing at times; I've downloaded and used a few for a while, then tossed them as not truly necessary.

If Opera Mobile browser comes out for this device, I'll definitely put it in and see if it can contend with the stock browser enough to actually replace it in duties.

Bible KJV,grape.f2

i Music,1.0.56 (this ones kinda ~~~, but when it works its good, free music is always good)

Tapatalk,1.0.18 (why does this forum not use tapatalk?!?!?!) (its great and when my trial runs out Im going with the paid version I like it so much)

Opera Mini,4.2

Droid Coupons,6.08 (only thing I have used it for so far is I have gotten many free redbox rentals off of it)

gUnit (free),1.4 (conversion tool, best free one I have found, I wish the people that made "conversion" for the iphone would make a droid counterpart though. gUnit has more, but conversion is much more strait forward)

Google Translate,1.0

antivirus,1.8 (runs in the background, when a new file enters the internal mem or sd card antivirus gives it the once over)

Task Cleaner Pro,1.3.6.2 beta (keeps things killed that other task killers like ATK dont see, this really speed up my eris! Freed up about 8MB of ram at any given time!) although there are things I still dont like about it I gave my feedback to the dev and he said he is going to change the very things I dont like about it on the next update!! So a good dev is behind this one.

Digi Clock Widget,1.7a (takes up 2 icon spaces on home screen, but still very visible, and It can be used to launch taks killer or any other app still)

Where's My Droid,2.5.3 (havent lost my eris yet, still havent even tested this app to work so I hope it does if I loose it!!)

GV Dialer,2.0.2 (Much simpler way to make free calls with fav5. The GV app DOES NOT call your gv number and actually the access number randomly changes. Prior to this app I had a bookmark of my GV account I could click on the home screen, it would take me to my contacts and I would select to call them, my phone would ring, I would answer and then it would ring them. Now with this app you set it up, and then just make a call like normal and it does the rest. You hear it call gv and with pauses it puts in the info as needed. People have had success using it with skype and calling cards as well.
The stock dial pattern didnt work for me, I use this one: A,p,B,p,2,C#, and it works great) can be easially turned on and off but I wish they had a on/off widget for it

Video Player,1.0

Flashlight,2 (white screen)

PdaNet,2.16 (I love this!!! My business means that many times I am on the road with my laptop and need to use it) Teather app

It says you have one.......

I have only had some lag when I have several apps open at once, or when Im using pandora and doing other things on my phone (mostly things that use 3g).

Task cleaner pro really speed up my phone in every aspect! My real only gripe is that it is set to kill apps when the screen goes off, and the screen goes off during a call when on the phone so if your working on something and someone calls (and you have that app set to auto kill, its gone when you get off the phone).
The dev said he is gong to change that in the next update. You should check out the app because it really speeds up the eris. Just pay attention to the things you set to auto, and which things you set to ignore for best results.

It's just that my Eris is so fast without any downloaded application manager or "killer" that there is no need for one.

I experience no discernible lag, no crashes and no unpredictable behaviors I've seen other users report here.

But I have only two non-stock applications in my device, plus I have a habit of doing "clean-out maintenance" at the end of each day's use: cache clearing and application "back-out" if any were left open.

oh, well in that case I think my performance is great.

I do have a bad habit of running multiple apps at once, which makes backing out of them a pita. Say Im typing an email to a customer, but need to check an excel price sheet, and then figure in my prophet margin, and shipping, im using 5 apps right there that I need open at the same time. After the email is sent I can hit the home button, my clock that opens atk and then clear apps if I want to continue to use the phone for something else and dont want any lag (which I would get if I continued to open apps). Or if Im done using the phone task killer pro will kill them automaticially when I hit end and lock the screen.

I can see how some people wouldnt need all this and are against task killers. But I do tend to believe my demand level for my phone is quite high considering all of the things I use it for.

until then you can try Screebl. It can be set to keep your screen on during all phone calls.

aCar--Tracks gas mileage. So far, ok
Abduction--This is the Android version of the DoodleJump game. Seriously love this.
Toddler Lock--Just got this yesterday, my 3 year old enjoys it but doesn't hold her interest for too long. I still cringe thinking about her playing w/ my phone!
Desktop Wallpapers--Pretty good, although the photos of nude/semi-nude girls is probably unnecessary. Seriously, are people using those for their wallpaper?!
WeatherBug Elilte--I like this, but the wind reading is always way off. Was 80mph gusts the other day. Uh, no.
PoliceStream--this is a really cool idea, you can listen to various police calls. Can't really understand much since they usually talk in code. But such a cool idea.
My Tracks--Haven't used this on a hike yet, but tracked my speed/mileage while driving home one day. Cool.
ShopSavvy--Just awesome. Seriously. So amazing.
The Weather Channel--Don't use this much since I got WeatherBug.

until then you can try Screebl. It can be set to keep your screen on during all phone calls.

Ill check it out until then. I really dont want my screen staying on during calls, but at the same time I dont want apps killing out because the screen is off when talking. Im considering disabling this app till the update is out.

What I really hope for is 2.1 because I hear there really is no need for app killers with it. I know many dont like them even with 1.5 but I tend to think 1.5 just isnt smart enough to keep up with my needs with no task manager. I could be way wrong but I dont really want to try it without one right now.

I wanted the eris, and was told that 2.0 was coming out in january when I got it..... Still waiting...... I hope I dont end up regretting getting this phone. I currently love it, but that is due in part with the hope of a better os.

I don't get people's fascination with Pandora and other internet radios. No control over the music? Just start with one song and listen to similar songs the whole time?

I tried Pandora when it first came out and not one person I knew had a clue it existed. I wanna say it was 2005 or 2006. Now people love it. What happened to having it on an iPod?

Smacky...i agree about the internet radios but i dont need a ipod when my eris has the music player on it...it works great and since i have my phone with me all the time i always have my " ipod " with me all the time !!!


My car has iPod integration where it connects from a USB to the car and can connect through the port on the bottom of the iPod(dunno the techical term for it) or through the 3.5mm. My phone never worked using the 3.5 and the other plug, like I said, was for an iPod only. So I have my Touch connected and control it using the car controls and it's fine.

I'm actually more comfortable carrying an iPod and a phone around on the transit and at the airport than I am using my phone as a music player. I just feel it'll kill the batteries faster and charging while out of the house just sucks. Not bringing my charger on campus and I'm not sitting on the floor in some obscure corner of the airport with a power socket to charge my phone.

Somewhat of a rant, but whatever. I've definitely learned I sometimes expect weird things from my phone and use it differently than others so.. I can tolerate all these different uses. But Pandora on a computer at home is just as irritating to me.
