Best and cheapest support stand for near-sighted - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

For nearsighted only. :laugh:
Oh, and the shell is Incipio which I like very much as it doesn't have right top corner exposed, silver colored and minimal. Warning, it doesn't have lip to protect glass.

That's a Go Keyboard. I use it just because it is the only one with Phonetic Russian layout. Otherwise I use Thumb keyboard for the extra large size keys. Also, using HelveticaNeueLT font helps as it is a bigger font.

Ice cream sandwich keyboard

I installed the Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard on my DHD, and it works perfectly. Then I installed it on my SGT 10.1, an it installs just fine but when I try to go to the settings it force closes every time. Is it not supposed to work on the SGT? Btw, I'm using Overcome 2.0.0

Just a fyi : the ice cream keyboards for lower versions than Android 4.0 don't use the sophisticated prediction model used by the ICS keyboard (which depends on 4.0 APIs). The author of the keyboard expressed it well. It is a migration of the old prediction model with the new theme and suggestion lint. It also hasn't bigram prediction.
to be honest, you're much better off getting Thumb Keyboard and using the ICS theme!
Looks great and works really well with the Tab!

Thumb Keyboard also has this keyboard mode which sounds perfect for you! (I have no affiliation, just being helpful!)

EDIT: How did you do that?
Sent from my GT-P7500 using Tapatalk
you see the three buttons horizontally at the bottom of the screen in the first screenshot and vertically in the second screenshot, those change the keyboard layout as depicted in the button image (I discovered this by accidentally tapping one and seeing the layout change!)
The additional funky thing about the "offset to right" layout is that thanks to the wonder of multitouch, you can grip the tab with any of the "black" area to the left and the keyboard will still work as normal!

Widgets on Note

Is there a way to get Widgets to fit the screen? Most are not wide enough to fill it...

I think the only way is with the alternate launchers. The widgets are not optimized for this big screen. It kind of sucks you can't even center them.

Stock android keyboard?

Is there some where I can get the stock android keyboard? I used it pretty much exclusively when I was on my D2 and I do not like the positioning of the keys on the HTC one.

I just tried that and the keys are tiny. I cant seem to find a regular keyboard that has the keys the same size as the standard HTC keyboard. whats the point of having such a big screen if all you can get is a tiny keyboard for it.

Few devices have the resolution our screen has so that why. Try and pull the one from the cm9 rom

You folks need to try A.I. keyboard. It has a key that allows you to resize the keyboard on the fly. You can make the size of the keyboard as large as you want. I am very happy with it.

Just a suggestion, try SwiftKey 3 Beta, it's free, it has themes that can match a lot of colors and it's the best predictive typing I've used.

Yeah I don't like swiftkey. I really don't like autocorrect at all honestly I just turn it off. Which leads to another reason I want the stock keyboard, the HTC one will not let me turn auto correct off and keep predictions on.

Only comment is bottom 2 rows are aligned left with gap on the right similar to screenshot 2nd row from the bottom.

Here ya go. Just highlighted the areas that don't go all the way to the right
Actually I just noticed there's a gap for everything on the right
Thanks for the blue keyboard...
The .Zip works great on 4.3 MKF int. build, just flash wipe and there it is.
There is a slight "off center" to the keyboard as stated the right side gap is slightly larger. I have messed around with my LCD density, I reset it to 480 and I still have a gap but I have heard rumor that once you change the setting, it will never be perfect again.
No biggie as I am more than willing to ignore that because the keyboard actually fits my fingers now.
A darker version would be awesome, not black, but really dark grey.:good:
(Edited for formatting and spelling)

I am not picky, and I dont expect you to make me a custom keyboard. I just like the darker side of things on my phone, your keyboard is awesome and works for me the way it is. I was just saying that if you were working on another version like the blue or red a darker gray would be sweet.

Problem with Nova Launcher spacing, question on how to fix

Hi, not sure if this is the correct place to post, the Themes and Apps forum seems to be more for promoting developer apps and the like.
So, I am having an issues with Nova Launcher; I made a picture - http://imgur.com/w7eFSac
What am I looking for is to be able to slide the entire app grid down to reduce the empty space on the bottom and increase it at the top. It is NOT an issue with my icon pack, it is the same with default icons. I have messed around with the settings a lot - there is an option to increase/decrease spacing above and below as a unit, but not separately. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I always use Nova as well and unless someone comes up with a specific mod for Nova I don't think its possible. I could be wrong but like you already know the only options for the margins affect all aspects of the margins ( top , bottom, left, right )
Maybe look into another launcher?

That's what I'm leaning toward. To be honest I am surprised this isn't more of an issue with people... the margin balance at the top and bottom is terrible. The icons are almost touching the status bar at the top and there's probably 4-5mm of space at the bottom.
Any recommendations on another launcher?

You know the only other one I found to be comparable to Nova was Apex. Plus you can still use all the same icons pretty much. There are quite a few launchers out now though so hopefully you find one ya like.

Can't you remove the homescreen page indicator in the dock settings? That might bring the app icons down a bit. I use TSF Shell, it's freeing to not be confined to a grid like all of the other launchers.

Along with some of the separately downloaded TSF widgets. It takes awhile getting used to, like you can tell they changed the way they handle certain launcher tasks just to differentiate themselves, but it has some cool concepts. Only downside is that $17 it costs lol

Thanks man .. actually it's showing me that it's something like $11 and change. Maybe that's why I never took the TSF plunge but if your recommending it maybe I'll check it out.

I got it I think back on my GNex so it was $17 back then... same price as Next launcher is or used to be... but they had a free trial option to test it out. It's up to you how much $11 is worth lol I really like the launcher though.
