[Q] Top 10 must have apps - LG Optimus 2x

Hi guys new to the forum and new to android, should be getting my LG tomorrow . I was wondering what your top ten apps are for the LGo 2x. I did see some other threads for other phones but maybe because of the awsome power you would be using other apps for this one ?
Or after rooting what shoud be the first apps to install ?
Anyway thanks in advance for the advise..

There's no need to use Chrome - you could use it for Firefox with Fox2Phone. It uses the official extension, just makes it usable in Firefox.
Out of interest: Why are you recommending Dolphin Mini? The 2x has no problems with handling Dolphin Browser HD which I am currently using - is there a reason to switch?

Long press any icon in your Launcher Pro dock, select "Change Icon" > "Custom Icon". Navigate to wherever you saved the icons to and select it.

Thanks, (and yes I tapped the thanks button) and credited you for it in the homescreen topic....they look awesome, I hope you will complete the set with the most common apps
hope u dont mind.. I modded your icons to be grey and black. here is the set for those interested. all I did was change the color..
the sample below is just to show the color change..
thanks again for this great icon pack..
thx for this
Here's some more that I made/edited. You can add them to the OP if you want.
just an fyi for some people, with the newest ADW you can also use custom icons like the same way you do with Launcher Pro
Awesome work!

could you please make some for the music and video player.
cheers
its not working
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, they don't show up. When I look it up in astro file manager it says the directory is empty. I'm launcher pro plus on moto droid.
Two Requests
Think you could throw together a calendar and/or video camera icon?
move them from where you saved them after the download to the dcim folder through astro manager.. then custom icon in folders youll see it.. thats how i did it and it worked.. as a newbie to all this im happy i got it to work

The only reason why I like this app is because you have swipe gestures.
I have my Asus Transformer Pad TF300T
mounted in my car in front of my head unit, with over 500 Full HD 1080 music videos ripped from YouTube
This allows me to swipe music videos for the next one, previous one, stop, play or even mute while driving ( I have long road trips with by myself, friends and family so its a great visual distraction for them )

Still waiting for my Xperia Z but - FIREFOX should be good !!
A web browser is tricky, each person has there own preference.
Ive used the default browser, opera since java and symbian phones. And dolphin.
Type in 'web browser' in Google play and look at the top 20 its all trial and error.
Edit looks like puffin web browser has flash?
Edit again.
Maybe even top 30 ,quite a few new browsers.
I like floating browsers too so you could try one like floating browser flux or overskreen which wouldn't be bad on the 5 inch screen.

Timescape widget from Arc will not work later because Sony is leaving Timescape and will replace it with Sociallife app seen in it's tablets.
I think it will be nice, that someone to make a software, like the illumination bar from xperia t. But for xperia z, and the illumination bar to be displayed on the screen when it`s in stand by.
I think il will not drain so much battery
I'm wondering if the lock-screen can be turned off in the settings?
If not, can someone test the app No Lock and see if it works?

HTC phones have issues turning off lock screens due to Sense built deep into the system..
Thanks!
