Hey. I don't know where to post this as I am unsure which device I am getting.
I am wanting to get a tablet, and I want to have other people use it. What I am asking is: is there a way on something like the 4.+ lockscreen that you can have different users with different home screens? Like slide up, user 1's desktop. Slide right, user 2 etc.
Also if it had the option of a Password that would be handy
Thanks
Faithfully,

How to change date & time in this phone?
And how to put it on main screen?
dont know if ur trolling or anything, but isnt it obvious in setting>date and time?
He's new to android.
First thing you should do is not to go on xda that much yet, familiarize yourself with the settings menu and how android works. Getting so many weird questions might annoy users.
Of course, we'll try to be helpful either way. But will appreciate if people try to look for solutions themselves before posting.
Anyway, changing time go to settings, adding widgets to main screen just hold the main screen and wait for popup and select a clock widget. Try searching market for honeycomb clock, looks awesome.
OK got it thanks.
Now can lock this topic.
Hello everyone,
Since I have 1 posts including this one on the XDA forum and couldn't post in the dev section, I guess it'll have to go here. I'd like to make a simple lock screen for my Galaxy S2 (Android 2.3).
It would be similar to the default pattern lock but I don't want a combination of dots. Instead, I want it to unlock at a single tap at a position on the screen, or maybe two correct taps.
Since the default pattern lock requires at least 4 dot connections, I couldn't use it. I also want it to show the background with no widgets, only maybe the notification bar.
Now I downloaded the Android SDK, but I have no experience with it. I have past C++ experience and I'm willing to learn, but I would like some directions and perhaps code snippets to get me started.
Inb4 NOT SECURE LOL: It's what I want to have.
tl;dr Mewants to make single or double tap lock screen with no widgets showing. Halp?
Try AppInventor ...It is a good way to learn to make apps for Android without really knowing the programming...all you need to know is hoe you you want your app to work...and since you have previous experience with C/C++..am sure the loops such as if/if-else etc in the pictorial manner won't confuse you..Good luck..Its a good Idea you have there..dunno if it can be implemented for sure though!
There are many AOSP Lockscreens available in the dev section anyway...check them out till then
Hi, as we all know androids notification is quite great. Apple however took this concept and in my opinion improved it. Many developer also seemd to like it and there are many apps on cydia that offers some customization.
What I'm looking for is an app or any way really that lets you customize the drop down window.
I'd like to b able to change wallpaper, change color of text, add widgets and info for fast updates.
I have spent many hours googling but I cant find anything like this. Is there any way to do this or does someone have thw ability to make souch an app?
I hope
I'm pretty sure access to the android notification can not be done through an app. Its like a core system process that probably can't be edited in real time. You would have to embed some sort of "notification drop down settings" into the OS.
But he is right Apple should not be ahead of us in any way..
Has no one left with common computer skills?
There's many topics on this here one just for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363528
Google and search button's seems to be extra these days
Good stuff I'll have to try. I don't know about everyone else about the search function, but I like to use my phone as a PC so the search does not work all that great through the android browser. Then filtering through the results.on this smaller than PC screen will give anyone a headache. Maybe the xda app is better idk..

I used my standard international SGS2 found results NP..
Cool, we're gettimg there.
However im looking for more than just a theme. Widgets and the ability to add my own background. I wamt the functionality, not just the look
Hi All,
First off, I LOVE themer! I've been using Apex Launcher for some time on my HTC OneX (rooted, ARHD 31.3 ROM) and I've often gazed with longing at the home screens that some people have designed using UCCW, knowing that I'll necer have the time (or the artistic flair) to design my own. Now I can!
But there seems to be SO many customization options on Themer, and I'm a little overwhelmed. For instance, I'm using a theme with an RSS feed as a central tile, but I'd love to be able to change that to a 'favourite apps' tile. I'm sure the option is there, but I can't work it out. So, has anyone developed/is working on/knows of a Themer user guide?
I work on a cruise ship and internet access is slow and expensive (£10 for 167 minutes!) so I really don't have time to surf around looking for answers to design questions.
SO, does such a guide exist? If so, please point me in the right direction. If not, is anyone up to the challenge?:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
The video is kind of like a user guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2474039

Thanks miles_muso for your kind words! Yes the video vhngu930 provided is a good one, but for your problem I can help here. See the thing is that you'd first have to delete that RSS icon and then hold down on the homescreen > Themer Actions > Favorite Apps. Now you'll have a massive heart (we're working on adding icon packs soon), which you'll be able to edit. If you hold down on the icon > edit > tap the icon, you'll be able to replace it with an icon image. You can maybe try here for icon images which may help, they by Jeppe Foldager and the small whites and darks should help for now: https://www.copy.com/s/DxsaXLatvBGf/Share/Icons
Hope this helps!
Hi guys!
I'm just enjoying the new open world of my very first Android device, after 8 years of iOs.
In certain ways- it really just very new and fresh and enjoyable-, and in other ways there are small annoyances which i hope i can find a solution with your help (or will just get used to them)
GENERAL, ANDROID, SEARCH
First of all,i'm a keyboard guy. Because of that, since IOS3, i wasn't using screens, but rather the search option, in my opinion there is really no better way to look for an app, but hit the first few letter, and choose from the narrowed list.
In pixel launcher, i was very happy with the search field, BUT, it's at the top on the screen and you have to touch it before keyboard comes up
I mean... COME ON. Seriously?
Phones are over 5.5" phone, this is really a pain in the butt.
I have a big hand, but it's impossible to reach with one hand.
Why not the keyboard comes up TOGETHER with the launcher?? So my question is:
Is there any app, which provide a search among installed apps, and can be reached easily with a shortcut (i mean like in IOS, -> swipe down, and type immediately | no hassle to tap the input field, then wait for the keyboard
NOTIFICATIONS
This one is very simple. Is there any way to make it like IOS?
I mean, in my opinion:
every notification should be one item (not grouped by programs)
when i click on one item, it opens the target itself, and not the program in which the target is (ie: it opens the received email, and not the email app)
Is there any hack / settings / app for all the above?
I would be just really very happy...
Thanks for reading me

Use playstore for downloading the ios launcher if the default android irritates you so much. For other stuffs, Google is your best friend
Thank you very much for reading my post

Perhaps you didn't read my comment properly. Since you had asked if there was an app with features like apple or whatever I said download ios launcher from playstore. Anyways I am out of here. Perhaps some other person may help you out.
You can download the "nils lockscreen notifications" app from play store and espier launcher pro from google
