I have reviewed LG Optimus One P500 here.Also have listed custom roms for Optimus One P500 here.In this post i am letting readers know about 10 must have applications for optimus one P500 ( original ROM ). Here is the most comprehensive and updated list of 10 must have applications for Optimus One,all of which are free :
- Adobe Reader : You may be already using this software on your PC but adobe reader lite is available for android OS as well.This is the best application with which you can easily read PDF files.Its size is less too.
Download
- Advanced Task Killer (Free) : Google has said that running of programs in background doesn’t slow down the OS.But I personally have noticed that running of too many apps in the background causes little extra battery drain.So install this task killer where you can kill all apps by single touch of your finger.You can also individually select and close the applications.
Download
- Anycut : Do you hate going to settings of your optimus one again and again to change settings.Well if yes,then anycut is the application for you.With anycut you can create shortcut of almost anything in your android and then keep it as a widget on your homescreen for ease of access.

- Barcode Scanner : A really fantastic app that is not only available for android but also for other smartphones.This app from Zing can read barcodes.This is really useful if you come across a site which asks to scan a barcode to get a download link.
Download
- Bluetooth File Transfer : If you have purchased Optimus One then you will notice that you cannot send files (mp3 and others) via bluetooth from your PC to your device or to other phone.Well install bluetooth file transfer,and enjoy transfering files via bluetooth.You can also use this software as a file manager.It has got many options.Check them out!!
Download
MoboPlayer : This is the most popular video player for Optimus One P500 and other android devices.When intergrated with the codecs,it can play almost any type of video format which includes .avi,.mp3,.wmv,.acc,.3gp,.divx and many others.This is really a must have because by default you may not be able to play all the video formats on your android device.
