Unfortunately Replicant does not run on my phone. When time comes to purchase a new one, I will probably get a compatible one. Most of the apps I use already come from the F-Droid repository https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/ as there is a lot of fantastic software available there.

I don't like it when threads end up as list of lists but some recommendations that might not be well known:

Aard is a offline wiki(pedia and others) reader. AFWall+ is a firewall to give/revoke internet access to apps. It is a fork of DroidWall which went inactive. Document Viewer is the best PDF reader I know and it's free software, hooray. It can automatically cut off white margins, you can set your own touch controls etc. Gibberbot is a great XMPP client. I tested many but this one did not randomly stop receiving messages like all the others did. GnuCash for keeping track of finances. Mirakel is a Todo app which I switched from Astrid to. Astrid is free software too but relies on several non-free libraries from what I know. Mirakel seems more concerned with privacy. OsmAnd for offline maps. And of course you can get APG, AdAway, ConnectBot, FBReader, K-9 Mail, ScummVM, Terminal Emulator etc. from F-Droid.

With the Nexus 5 out, the 4 might drop in price and make for a good "play with Ubuntu phone" phone :)

Really BAD: has too much proprietary things and the hardware is bad for freedom: modem transport is over HSIC (high speed USB), but it controls the GPS (included in the modem chip), audio and perhaps NAND too

Just out of curiosity, what is your current unsupported device?

HTC Desire (which is very similar to the Nexus One). Just writing this reminded me that I really like HTC Sense and would probably miss that the most.
