“3) JuiceDefender Is the battery on your Android phone
consistently running on empty? JuiceDefender can help you extend
it! The app intelligently manages your mobile connectivity and
other battery-sensitive components to ensure your phone runs as
efficiently as possible. For example, the default mode switches
your phone from battery-intensive 3G mode to the less-draining 2G
mode when you’re not actually using the phone, and it turns of the
Wi-Fi radio if the charge goes below a certain level. The Advanced
Mode allows you to tune the app’s triggers based on your individual
needs.

“4) Lookout Want to protect your phone? Lookout does just about
everything. It provides security against mobile viruses, malware
and hackers, backs up your data and even locates your lost or
stolen device on a map from the Web. And if you can’t find it, you
can use Lookout to make your phone “scream” or simply wipe out all
the data on it.

“5) App Protector Pro Want a little extra security for your
Android phone? App Protector Pro allows you to password protect any
application on your phone, including e-mail, SMS, photos and more.
Paid: $1.99.”
