I will book mark this thread

It will be interesting to see what other users have discovered. My list was longer, but sticking to my top 5 as the OP title states really lets users know what others fill are the top 5 apps out there.

Easy Root users, does the whole rooting process go over as smoothly as I hear it does? I have some buddies that want to root there phones, but they aren't big risk takers.

A little off topic. The "other" methods just involve typing a series of lines and slapping the enter key. Look in the RS guides section here for assistance and to make further posts on this topic. I always recommend the manual method and the forum is also here to help those that use the one button push methods when things go wrong;)

I' like apps that don't make me think.

1. Screebl
2. Home Run Battle 3D
3. Awesome Triple Poker
4. Uno
5. YahtC

Using my brain hurts. One of the reasons why I haven't rooted my D2. :redface:

It's perfect for home theater pc use. I use it almost daily. I like to mess with my buds too. They'll think their mouse is going haywire.

I have had my Droid 2 now for almost 2 months and I have found a few apps by searching on this website ( which is great dancedroid ). So after a few weeks of using them, I thought I would post what I use.

Top 5 "everyday" apps
LauncherPro ( great app to personalize your cell home screens )
Handcent SMS ( much better text app than the installed one )
Dolphin Browser HD ( I use FF, so this is a great browser for me )
Facebook ( for keeping up on my friends )
WeatherBug ( more data for me, but also have The Weather Channel app )


Top 5 stock "replacement" apps
LauncherPro
Handcent SMS
Dolphin Browser HD


Top 5 "unknown" apps
Flikie Wallpapers ( gives me more wallpapers to chose from )
Ringdroid ( use to make ringtones from my mp3 songs )
Apps Organizer ( great to have when you acquire so many apps )
Dictionary.com ( when you really need to know the meaning of a word ,lol )
Desktop Visualizer ( make custom icons to open any app )


Top 5 apps OVERALL
LauncherPro
Handcent SMS
Dolphin Browser HD

I am sure over time my list may change. I will return then and update my favs. Till then I will enjoy the ones I have, which are all great. Maybe not even replace them. How can you replace something that works for you?
