Getting a Hero Must Have Android Apps
 

Let me know what you think I need for my HTC Hero.
Isn't there an RC speed calculator for when you're not at a PC for Brian's calculator? Of course I'll also want a good game or two. A good bible app would be great as well when I need to condemn someone and don't have a physical book. :rules: :party: :lol: JK but seriously.

Air Control is a fun game. I use Apollo Task Killer a lot as well.

Things I use constantly:

Google Voice (if you're already a GV user, it's perfect, if not, it's worth checking out)
Google voice locations (GPS way to switch which #'s your google voice # rings to)
Locale - $10, but awesome. Lets you program conditions (location, wifi network availability, phone orientation, etc) and things to do when that condition is met (change the wallpaper, ringtone, volume, speakerphone, google voice settings... there's a ton of plugins for it)
Barcode Scanner - Reads in barcodes (Doesn't process them)
Shopper or ShopSavvy - Scan a barcode, compare prices for it online and nearby
Pandora or Stitcher- Streaming radio
Facebook & Twitter.
Sportstap - Sporting news & info
Gamefly Gamecenter (Awesome if you have a gamefly sub)
Evernote - online note taking, create notes on your phone, instantly have them online (for your PC etc)
Dropbox - Filesharing between PCs & phone, awesome.
Mint.com - Budgeting
Nesoid - Nintendo emulator, works perfectly
photoshop.com - photo editing, works great
unit converter
Beautiful Widgets - Nice clock, nice looking widgets
DxTop - Homescreen replacement, gives you 5 homescreens as well.

I have lots more that I have & think are good, but that's a decent start :)

Robo defense. I'm straight up addicted.

have you played with the hero? the phone is cool but don't you think the 4.3" screen is a little big.. Unless you carry a satchel like indiana Jones did...

Grrr I met the Evo.. I was looking at the Motorola X, but that just seems like a big phone if you put in your pocket.

Coolness sounds great so far! I can't wait to try all these. I should get the phone 2moro. It has a 3.2inch screen.

Yeah the Droid X looks rediculous, its bigger than the friggin evo. I've played around with the EVO and its just too big to be practical.

Is there a way/app to make moving my iTunes library to my phone easier? Would the dropbox app do this? I love the phone BTW! Its super I've already tried out some of the reccomended apps and games.

Dropbox won't help you there. I know there are some apps for managing music on your android phones that are good, I'll look around. Honestly, I don't use music on my Droid, I use an iPod Touch... the media management on the droid sucks.
