Level Meter: Worked Accurately
I previously recommended Xclineometer, but the results of this app were more accurate for me without any need for calibration. It works perfectly on my Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
Flash Light Widget: Fastest Light Utility
This app is just a widget you put on your home screen. Tap it, and you have your flash light on. What else do you need? This app is ultra lightweight, and it just works as expected, no need to bloat your phone with feature loaded light apps.
YouUpload: A fast image uploading app
Did you ever had a screenshot on your phone that you wanted to post/include on a forum and couldn't? All you have to do is to upload the image with this app to YouUpload.com, and it will provide you with the short link to it. Copy and paste it where you wish!

TrustGo: Good Security
TrustGo is an antivirus and an Android security app that is just what I decided to use after trying a lot.
Why?
1. Very good detection rates.
2. But still more lightweight than well known antiviruses like Avast.
3. Has a simple theft protection system through online free registration.
Strobe Light: Flash light flicker
Assume you are trapped in an island in the dark and are trying to seek help or perhaps waiting for your friend who can't see where you are standing at night..
Strobe Light is a simple app that uses your phone camera's flash light in pulses with your desired speed. It might come in handy someday when you're in trouble!
Urban Dictionary: A Tourist Saver
If you are a tourist in the UK or the US and you found yourself stuck unable to understand unofficial English words related to their culture, this dictionary may aid you out.
News360: Another visually appealing news
But it's not just visually appealing. The main benefit of this app is that you can always read the same news from different news sources (perspectives) on the fly.
WiFi Analyzer: Optimize your home WiFi
Ever wondered why your WiFi setup at home suddenly stopped working as good as before? Check this..
Every WiFi / access point will provide its signal with one of 14 or 16 (depending on brand) frequencies called channels. If you are on the same channel your neighbor is on, chances are there is signal interference/distortion. You have to log in your device settings and change the channel.
Here is the problem though..how are you going to know the channels the other WiFis are connected to? WiFi Analyzer app is the solution through which thou will be able to scan surrounding devices. It will provide you with the necessary info.
As you can see on the screenshot these WiFis are connected on the same channels but their owners are probably not aware of it. One day when the interference becomes so strong they will have to change the channels or experience problems in connectivity.
kobo: Book Library & App
In my opinion, kobo is the best reading experience Android has to offer.
The kobo books database has lots of free books as well as paid ones with affordable prices. It is a neat application with constant improvement through updates.
The best beloved feature in my opinion is the instant dictionary available for you the moment you hold on a word. I've waited for it for so long and kobo hasn't failed me.
kobo is also found on Apple store which means if you switched to Apple products you will still enjoy the books you purchased in the cloud.
Skitch: Express & Highlight Ideas
You loved something you were reading on the internet or a book and wanted to highlight or express an idea? Then take a quick screenshot and share it with the skitch app and start working on it.
You will love it!
Evernote: Your cloud notes companion
Jot down all your personal and work related stuff organized on evernote and you will never worry to lose them again. It is one of the very popular apps on Android.
You have a 45 megabyte online space to sync to per month. Which is usually enough for note taking.

XClinometer: Handy Tool
Edit: Level Meter app works more accurately on my phone, and I recommend it as a replacement to this app (1 March 2013).
Open this app and put your phone on your table, if the green bubble is not in the middle circle then the table is not on a leveled surface, or perhaps your phone is slightly inclined. And if you are facing this app you want to find out where the 45 degrees to your left will be, this is the app for you.
This app is mostly useful for engineers but it might come handy sometimes.
SimpleMind Free: Easy Mindmap app
Just in case you want a very simple and easy to use mind map app that's working great :-)

When I matched this app with a physical ruler I found it surprisingly accurate.
A very simple app to measure tiny stuff. Depending on your phone size it will give you an average of 3 to 10 cms long.

If you haven't tried the Flipboard app yet you're missing the fun of reading news on Android!
