If you didnt know.. There is a sale on the market . Ever day there are 10 apps for 10 cents each.
Today there is "swipe it" and "HD widgets" on there .
They are both awesome apps and well worth the $.10
Get them before they go back to full price!

It's an awesome event that Google is doing! Only downside I have seen alot of "repeat" apps so to speak. This is the 3rd of 4th time I've BW on the market for $.10.
Yeah they have the ad up on the main page of the market. I have done a couple and I agree there are repeats!!

Ya the repeats defeat the purpose kinda.. I have purchased almost all the apps so far. Can't beat the price lol.

Does Swift Key X support a Swype-style method of input?
I really like the theming and appearance of the Swift Key X keyboard, but I've been spoiled by Swype's ease of use.
i downloaded that paper camera, its pretty slick . makes neat facebook pictures lol
They're trying hard to sell some if these lol.

Bummer. I installed it anyway on a whim, and and I absolutely LOVE the blue skin.
Gotta have my Swype now though. Even Trace doesn't cut it anymore.

that's awesome looking, it has a retarded amount of features and ways to modify the layout, it's gonna be a sick launcher.
This is gonna blow my mind on the Note. Thanks for sharing.

Yea i saw this a while ago it looks cool though

Thanks for the heads up, I'm really looking for a launcher to do separate portrait and landscape modes, I've heard of Sweeter Home 2 or ssLauncher, but really was hoping for a well know launcher to support this, any ideas?
Has anyone seen this thing work as a launcher? The video showed lots of set up stuff. With all the features and animation it might be laggy. I guess we'll see next week.
This is good code, wish it was out now. Will definately purchase.

i bet this will be a huge battery intensive launcher although I do admit it does look pretty cool.
So the website is down now. Maybe to prepare for the launch?
Yeah, website not working for launch day. Oh well. Nothing really new but this launcher sure gives you everything in one package. Wow! It would be nice to take a look at it.
it will not come out until tonight stated on their blog so that might be this afternoon for us!
It's up for sale. $16.80!!!!
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tsf.shell
yeah I dont know if I will be spending that on this... it has to be more resource intensive than the standard TWLauncher. if not I would be surprised.....
That is left feeling kinda no so much let down but kinda eyyyh about this handset. I've already promised my ET4G to my brother in-law and I think im going to regret it. I knew the GS3 wasnt that much of an upgrade going in to this but the camera seems funky and NFC well google wallets not working on the device :silly: I just feel kinda blah about it ..... and moving off files from the ET4G it seemed to fit better in my hand and I miss being able to change the saturation on the screen modes.
It'll get better with customs Roms to be honest not liking stock at all. I really hope AKOP comes out for this phone. Fingers crossed

Coming from the ET4G on MIUI I am feeling the same way. I could have easily waited. If you flash the new touchwiz on the SII you won't miss much. The only thing Im banking on is taking pics while you record. I'm not sure if that's a hardware perk or not. So far I'm trying to sell myself on the new device. We will see!

I only wish the TW calendar widgets were compatible with another launcher as they did a much better job on those than stock ICS. Business Calendar is a good enough replacement though.
Hmm I'm in love with this phone, maybe because I had the old, and kind of slow s3 processor in my T-Mobile s2, and a non HD screen

When AOKP and CM9 and various roms come out for this phone (which I have high hopes they will) the phone will feel rebirthed.
I enjoy it now, but I've never been a fan of TW or samsungs skins. Still though, it's a huge upgrade for me; Coming from a Nexus S.
Agree once Cm9 and others get going this phone will fly especially with the 2 GBs of ram

I had the s2 and I feel it is an upgrade. More ram, 1.5ghz, slightly larger screen, this radio has performed better than my s2, lte soon, and not that it matters much but when was the last time your s2 hit 5000 on quadrant while running stock. This phone also feels a lot smoother

I came from the Samsung Vibrant and this is a nice upgrade for me. Very excited. The first thing that went was TW. I'm running Nova launcher on mine. (it installed automatically as it got synced with my account).
The only thing that I am missing is the Ubuntu for Android. I wonder if CM team will look into implementing it with some of their builds. That would be sweet!

THREAD CLOSED PUT JB RELATED ISSUES IN THE JB STICKY oka1

cant wait to see the 1st JB rom
Has anyone else noticed how dead the forums have been since the Google I/O..... I would be so excited to see a JB port......Saving my funds to donate.

It doesn't hurt to try they just don't want people using it since they won't support it. Basically trials and error .
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
I think adobe is stupid for not supporting it anymore. Yes, html5 may be the future, but it's not the present. Chrome works for most stuff on my phone, but almost any video that I come across on any tech site or anything else I still find myself copying the link to the stock browser to watch it. It's just stupid when so much of the web still relies on flash. I have no problem with it being phased out, but they're crippling mobile browsing by not supporting mobile anymore. As soon as the next update for desktop flash comes, mobile browsing will suck until html5 is the universal standard, which it currently is nowhere near being. At least with tab syncing between mobile and desktop chrome I'll be able to find anything I need easily on my laptop, but it's still going to be a hassle. Stupid adobe, just stupid.
Back on topic, I'm excited for JB to come to the Note. I'm highly tempted to shell out 350 for a gsm gnex, but I'm sure our awesome devs will have something awesome soon enough. Until then, I'm fully satisfied with what we have already...couldn't ask for more.

Yeah, about the only thing holding me back from buying the gnex is how awesome the note is, and the fact it's likely the next nexus will be out within a year, and my note is definitely more than good enough to tide me over. I just hope Samsung wins the bid for the next one. If they do, I'll be buying the next nexus for sure as well as the note 2. What we really need is the nexus note though, I would throw my wallet and my left nut along with a contact for my firstborn child at google/Samsung for that =]. I just can't quite justify spending 350 on software, with lesser hardware, that we will eventually see for free. If not sooner rather than later.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737889&page=4
I'm looking for some opinions and comments here...
I thought I might return this phone to Radio Shack because I wasn't sure if it would get JB. But after spending more time with it, I don't care if it doesn't get it--wow! I was amazed by the audio and video as it was. But today I spent some time with the Developer Options. Except for overclocking the phone, I can't see a reason to root and install CM* or anything else. There's so much in it now! There's no way I'm going to get this out of an iPhone. My coworker just stares at it and says, "two more months...".
So that said, are folks still looking to install CM on this phone? What else would you get out of CM or another ROM that you're not getting from what the phone has now?
Thanks.
As far as getting aosp... Better performance, better battery life, no sense.

Exactly, there's a difference between vanilla JB and JB with a Sense overlay. People aren't seemingly seeing the difference.
And I can live without image sense. As long as the camera can still take the same quality pictures, I'm game for CM10 or CM9. Or AOKP.
OP, I've flashed CM9 and the speed difference hurts my head. It proves that Sense is slowing down this phone. Definitely looking forward to seeing what this phone can really do!
That said, I agree that the phone is terrific as is! Many will be plenty happy without custom ROMs. But many, including myself, are anxious to push this thing to the limits and AOSP will likely do that, performance-wise. I can't wait!

What is ugly about vanilla ICS? Put that same background on your phone, get a sense-like click widget, and most people will be convinced they're running Sense.
I think Google did an amazing job with ICS, looks-wise. I can't wait to try it again one day!

Ok, i would recognize in a hot second it wasnt sense if i put a sense clock weather widgit on my homescreen. For 1, the status bar, the standing battery is ugly imo, the data bars...all of it up top is not pretty to me. The dock on the bottom, isnt my style, when you open the messaging app, sense is just so much more sexy, and elegent to me, even the people app, i feel the same way about. But they are right, a vanilla non sense rom of course will b smoother, and faster, and less battery draining. But im willing to take a slight hit on those for the looks of sense. I just love it.....and always have.
