hi friedns i m using xperia neo v need some apps for my phone to make it more useful

[Uliwooly]

ok, but you need to be more specific as to what do you want to do with your phone

one think I will suggest is

get rid of:

1) taskillers

2) battery/juice defenders

3) antivirus

they only slow down your phone and use your internal space

I would suggest this apps to backup your phone

SMS/MMS/Call Logs

Install "backup SMS+" to back up your SMS, MMS and Call Logs  to your Gmail

or just SMS use

"backup & restore SMS"

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore&feature=search_result

or just MMS use "Save MMS"

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.schwimmer.android.mmsextract&feature=search_result

Call Logs (Just call logs)

Contacts

just to play it safe sync your contacts w/ google if you haven't already

open your phonebook

press MENU button -> tap on Send Contacts -> select all -> send it to your email

on your computer

-> download the file -> go to your gmail -> click on contacts -> click on more actions -> on the drop down menu click on "import" -> choose the file -> and click import

Backup & Restore app (will backup your SMS, MMS, Call Logs, Settings, Apps, Contacts)
