Thought we would start an Apps Corner so we can share what we think are essential apps or just apps you think are good and Games.
Please if you post in here do not just post saying that app is no good i think this one is better.
If you think that then tell us a bit about the app and a link to the app so we can all have a look, otherwise it will be pages and pages of wasted posts.
I will kick it off

Bit embarrassed about this one as I tried it when I first got my streak and dismissed it far too quickly. its now my favorite app!
you know all those lovely books you grabbed in laputa? ** imagine reading them in either landscape or portrait with whatever layout you want. that's the start, then imagine sticking it in night mode and setting what colour you want the text to be. then decide you really want the backlight much darker than either Dell and lapses will let you go. slide your finger down the left edge if the screen.. genius!
Flick page left turns it, no fuss, no scrabbling around in the bottom corner trying to Flick the page.change the page animation speed, change pretty much everything..
**copy any epub book to /sdcard/ebooks/import and enjoy them in comfort

GOOGLE LISTEN automated download of subscriptions just add to your queue and listen, need to spend time finding good stuff to listen to but there's plenty out there. This week in google is always god for a laugh
ROCK PLAYER watching films on the streak is a must, currently the only app that doesn't need mass conversion of your film library
SWYPE keyboard is a must the stock keyboard was/is terrible, I spent ages correcting errors now I have a keyboard that I can tap or swype and get good results.
ENGADGET reads a dream on the streak
NEWS PRO THOMPSON REUTERS all types of news under one roof
That's it I'm afraid i expected more from such an open platform. I could do more with a jailbroken iphone than with android 1.6. I hope that will change soon.

RockPlayer - The ARMv7 version is the one for the Streak - Love this
I have just stumbled across this app that plays AVI files and as their are not many out their that do that i thought i put the link up
http://www.appbrain.com/app/sns.arcMedia.playerInterface.arm6
PS i havent tried it yet so if someone does please share it with us
interesting, the 1.6 firmware photo&video is by arcsoft media ...
obviously a coincidence of naming..
as this is based on FFMpeg I'd imagine it will be able to handle quite a few codecs eventually.
however looks like this specific version is compiled for arm6 processors, (the appbrain link name suggests it) so maybe a v7 version would be a bit better.
Barcode Scanner
One of those apps i would gladly pay for

Quick question, what USB mode is your Streak in when transfer video files
from Amazon. I havnt got it to work yet?
Thanks!
psx4droid: bit limited on what works, but WRC Arcade version and Colin McRae Rally 2.0 (and i presume 1.0) work!!
Kindle is excellent on the Streak.
Don't understand why people aren't using the built in video player? Having said that, I'm using DVD conversions I did for my old X1 and that was a swine to convert for. h264 mpeg I think?
Copilot is superb, google maps with streetview and traffic layer is a godsend.
And, for anyone who has an OBDII compliant car, "Torque" is a great bit of software. You get a bluetooth OBDII adapter from ebay for around 25 quid and now you have diagnostics (including reading and clearing fault codes) for your car!! £2? The guy could charge £10 and it'd be well worth it!!
Being a photographer, "Photo Tools" is a very handy application
And for music, through bluetooth in my car, Mort Player is great - especially if you add the widget. It even responds to the steering wheel controls for next and previous track!

I launched Amazon Unbox player, connected the Streak, and selected Media files. After a minute or so, I was able to see the Streak, after refreshing the devices in Unbox. Good luck!!
Found a good clock widget for the Streak, the surround looks similar to the standard streak icon surrounds so it matches them pretty good.http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-davidgoemans-simpleclockwidget-zAtq.aspx
Weather forecast widget, only used this for a coupls of days, seems pretty accurate, battery use was good with 3% over 8 hrs (set to update every 6)

I have tested and it does work over wifi with the Streak. Still in alpha but it does have promise.
I downloaded Skype but for some reason it just freezes the streak. Im sure its skype. I know skype haven't releashed a Dell Streak Version. I installed system tools and my memory has gone upto 93%. even though I use task manager and also have 1.5gb free on internal.
I had to switch the screen off a few times to get the screen to respond to my touches sometimes had to restart (i've tried screen calibration) and when i finally got it to work went into settings --> application --> stopped skype and it works fine ... strange.. anyone else having the same problems?
Thanks
This question came up because someone was kind enough to supply a barcode I could use to link to a download. Turns out I can't use that download, which I knew by the description of the target.
Meanwhile, it opened up a new question that I would like to learn about and since I cannot find anything in the Streak section that addresses it and I thought other newbs might like to know, I decided to make it its own thread so maybe we can learn something new.
So without further ado, the question:
How do you use the Streak's camera to scan a barcode, especially to follow a link to a download?
Once you download a barcode scanner from the market (or other download option) you use the app.
The app usually uses the camera to capture the barcode. It's as simple as that. Just point it at a barcode and it recognizes it and translates it into url. Problem is that it usually points you to a market download location so if you don't have market installed I'm not sure what it will do.
Here is some info about using a barcode scanner. The barcode scanner is a nifty tool and can be used on many phones, not just the streak. There are many barcode scanning apps in the market.
I found Google Goggles to work the majority of the time, and it handles barcodes and QRCodes.

normally, download a barcode reader depend on the barcode type, and you can decode the barcodes. if you want add the barcode reader into your apps, a barcode reader component is needed. links are often encoded into a qr code nowadays. i just used a KeepDynamic.BarcodeDecoding.Dll which works great!

about barcode
Hi there,Here is a turorial for a barcode generation. Not sure if it applies.Hope I helped~~~
It doesn't because the question was about how to read barcodes, not write them. However, your contribution is appreciated as knowing how to create barcodes can be useful.

I use this too, in fact it can do a whole lot more then barcodes.... translate text, recognize some objects, solve Sudoku puzzles.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mantano.reader.android.trial
I've been following development of this reader over at mobileread for a while, and finally had occasion to grab the trial: very impressive. It is at least the equal of Aldiko on epubs, with better pdf support (for my purposes, anyway--I'm not annotating or anything) than ezPDF, and a very polished UI.
It's not cheap, but finally having an app that renders pdfs readable, and being able to retire 2-3 other reading apps in the bargain, makes it well worth it to me. The level of engagement from the devs also bodes well for the app's future.
I also tried the trial of Mantano and love this app! Finally found an app that doesn't hang when reading my pdf manuals, etc. As mentioned above, great interface and well worth the price to do what it does.
What does this $7.49 app have that Adobe Reader/Cool Reader doesn't?
Or it's just 2-in-1 convenience package?

Adobe reader doesn't remember your place in the document but has great viewing options. Coolreader doesn't support adobe drm so no library support. Aldiko has lots of nice little touches but sucked with pdfs... mantano addresses essentially all of these issues and others. So my opinion its a worthwhile "2-in-1" convenience.
I still prefer ezpdf. Mantano has poor image scaling.
FYI, the current update is apparently causing FCs on the NC,so you may want to freeze updates until they fix it.
Nice app.. imo, better than Moon Reader etc for epubs!
I've tried near every ebook reader app in the market but I've decided to bought Mantano because is by far the best and stable of all!!
I'm very happy about it and I feel that only a proper widget is missing so I've sent an email to them and they answered me in 10 mins!!
here the answer:

Hi Dimitri,
Thank you very much for your kind comment!
Currently you can add a shortcut to a book on your home page, but we'll add a widget someday. Before this, our next big improvements will be the support of teh OPDS catalog format, which will allow you to browse a lot of book catalogs available on the web, and the the synchronization between devices and annotations sharing. But the widget is also on our TODO-list.
Thank you again, and have pleasure with our app !
Best regards,
Jean-Marie

hmm. i'm already on the paid version. perhaps i'm just unusually lucky. are you seeing people complain at mobilereads or elsewhere?
OT: BTW, in nanowrimo under 'skwalas' if you do jump in.
I just caught up on the MR @MR thread, and it looks like they already released a fix that solved people's problems.
After a few short days using the Mantano, I have to say it is better than the Adobe Reader, at least having the "remember last opened" feature.
ePub supporting was just ok, nothing fancy.
Thumb up anyway and thanks to those members who introduced the tool.
I can't open my downloaded BN ebooks with Mantano. It asks for name and password, but won't accept them. Ideas are welcomed. Thanks.

I believe your "username and password" for B&N's DRM is the name on the credit card associated with your account and the credit card number, respectively.

Why does everyone want Nokia Drive?!!!!!!
I think Bing Maps is awesome.. what is it missing?
I use WPCentral & WMPoweruser a lot. Also mehdoh for twitter. Other than that I use a lot of photo apps & Xbox live games, especially Splinter Cell. Also use the people hub for most of my Facebook & some twitter. Though I guess the people hub is baked in & not necessarily an app .

I am hoping to find a Scanner app that will let me scan a page by literally *scanning* it with my camera, slowly sweeping the page. Similar to how you can take panoramic photos, and it stitches the images together behind the scenes. I want to use OCR to scan a page into text, but the I find the quality usually isn't good enough for accurate OCR.
Does anyone know of one? Thanks
Don't know about panorama but but did you try Camscanner? It works like a charm. Download it from the market:

Yeah, actually that's what I have now.
Tried emailing a scan to my laptop and my ocr program got nearly anything right, lots of random symbols.
I will try again with better lighting but, surely, there must at least be some app to stitch photos together? Where you take 3 or 4 pics and it fits them to make a seamless high quality image?
Swiped from my Rezound using xda-developers app
