After a bunch of poking around, I manage to find the live wallpapers and clock from the original ICS unveiling in Hong Kong!
They install on our ICS build just fine. The bubbles live wallpaper is awesome and the Phase Beam is not the recreation found in the market (though so far it is only the background without the floating circles and lines).
Anyway, if anybody else comes across any ICS stuff not included in our build, share it here.
what is the Phase beam supposed to do? it doesn't do anything
and that clock one you added is just a widget, not a live wallpaper. the bubbles one works real good though.

Go to file manager, and select "downloads" folder,... Delete the file!
Yeah I did that but it still shows up on the live wallpaper selection screen. Eh whatever I bet it will go away, not a big deal. Thanks for the response.

When not using the dock, I prefer to use Thumb Keyboard from the market for the on-screen keyboard. The problem is when I dock the tablet, the keyboard stays on Thumb Keyboard, which uses the US keyboard layout which is a bit of a problem since my Prime is the UK model. The keyboard layout differs slightly which is not a huge problem but it does get a bit annoying.
I can manually change the keyboard back to the Asus keyboard but that seems to be an extra step in something that should be automated. Does anyone know if there is an app or a setting that tells the tablet to change keyboard automatically when you dock or undock the keyboard? Thanks!
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
I believe there is an application for that, but I don't remember it's name unfortunately. It might require root too.
I'm also using thumb keyboard, but I haven't found any inconsistencies yet, could you point them out to me?
As for fixing your issue, you could try the ' alternative/international keyboards' setting
The only one I have found so far are @ and " being switched around. (shift+2 is @ on US keyboard, " in UK) There might be more but I haven't really tested them out. Anyway I tried looking at the international keyboard settings but there seems to be no way to change to the UK layout; there's just one QWERTY keyboard.

i just did the other day using viperboys method, it was done in less than 10 minutes with NO hassle. HIHGLY recommend it. i pretty much did it for this app, which USED to be paid. for w/e reason, dev made free... and im glad!
my only possibly objection to KBM, it places a notification in the bottom right. i just hate notifications. i try to clear em asap. but, same goes for external sds... so i guess we just deal with it lol...
Lol. I know lots of people get annoyed by notification icons but I'm pretty cool with them so it should be alright. Thanks for the tip on the rooting method.

in the settings for keyboard manager you can disable to the notification.

I usually keep my DX2 pretty much the same all the time. Its pretty simple. But I was thinking of doing this to my TouchPad. As of right now I only have one homescreen on my TouchPad because I cant really think of anything else to put on there that wont already fit on the one screen. lol. This would be cool.

Usually hubs includes tabs or text for all homescreens in order to jump directly to that homescreen. I just decided not to do that, to me it looks cleaner and less cluttered on a phone.

I like the radar maps included with beweather. Does the weather channel app have good radars? I haven't used it in a long time so I forget. Might try that or weatherbug app.
Weather map apps are a dime a dozen, but finding one that allows for a radar widget is rare, it seems.

Loaded it up last night. The good news is, the Transformer dock keyboard now works in the search field even when you're not on the home screen! Also, the video window is larger. Overall, it's a good change.
i think im going to pass on this update as long as i can. i love the dark theme of the old version, the white is too hard on the eyes.
The new version has its good points, we can now actually delete videos from play lists and it seems to be a little bit faster however everything looks huge and oversized like its been designed for kids. There is also no full screen button so you have to watch a boxed video, although it is a slightly larger video box than the previous version.
I tried it and hated it and have gone back to the old version. It just looks nicer overall and has a full screen mode.

For me it's just like the desktop update, ugly and counterintuitive. Everything takes much more time to do and find now, I'm reverting to theold look
The fullscreen button is there, but it's bugged. If you rotate tablet you will see it (into portrait mode), and sometimes it becomes visible in landscape mode. Sometimes...
I also think that old one was better. First it was blackish which was much better, comments were on better position - now you have to have collapsed description and related videos and all buttons are ridiculously big => bigger controls, less content.
Thankfully I was able to revert to old version

I tend to use TubeMate a lot more now and I can download the vids to watch later.
Is there any way to make a selective widget, like the DuckDuckGo widget, persistent in the place of the Google search widget? I ask this because the Google search widget that is persistent doesn't take up a complete grid like it would if I was to add the DuckDuckGo widget to every page at the top.
Adding the DuckDuckGo widget drops everything down much further, even with another grid space added on Nova, than just having the persistent widget does.
I saw with Lightning Laughed you could "pin" a widget in place and it is almost like using a persistent widget, in that it stays in the same place as you scroll through homescreens, but its still very very different. I have also seen Overlays but that is completely different as well.
So is there any way to modify Nova, and of the other launchers, or a ROM to use the DuckDuckGo widget as persistent instead of the Google search bar?

Apparently SS Launcher allows pinning as well, I am currently emailing the Dev and discussing persistent widgets but I don't have much hope because he doesn't seem to know what I am talking about or the differences.
I am going to start looking for a way to edit it but I'm not very hopeful I'll find a solution.

Not at all, the ssLauncher Dev has no idea what I a, talking about, he doesn't speak English as his first language so its extremely hard for me to explain things to him. I eventually gave up.
I've heard that the Dev responsible for Action Launcher adds just about anything his users ask for so I am going to email him later today and see if he can and would add that. Ive been trying to figure this out for quite a while and no one knows anything about it and the few that do, I've found 2 people who supposedly know, don't want to explain what edits need to be made.
I'll post back when I get dome talking with the Dev over Action Launcher!
