I got to play with a new iPad and i love the way the wallpaper slightly moves with the way the device is tilted. Is there a way to get this on Android?
Bump
No love?

I'm not sure if there's an app for it, the Galaxy S6 has this however, if I remember correctly someone referred to this as "parallax wallpaper".

Ok I am sure all netflix users have found out that we have been had. There app will automatically update and no matter what I do I can't stop it. The new app is not very responsive and fails to load all the thumbnails. It's not as bad on the 3vo as it is on the og but still sucks. Plus I liked the old look better. So what I am wondering is if anyone knows how to stop it from upgrading?

Did you uncheck the auto update on the market? Mine never updates.
Yes I did. I still have the black splash and auto rotation but the main ui has changed.

Unfortunately there is no way to stop the update. I have a backup of netflix in titanium backup from about 4 months ago and as soon as I restore the app and data it loads the new interface. I thought netflix was slow before, I didnt think they could make it any worse. They might be trying to push people to upgrade their devices. The app works on the 3vo, but my wife has an evo 4g and it barely works now.
yeah i am in the same boat. i have the og and my ole lady has the 3vo. damn you netflix!!!!!!
The Netflix app's user interface is really just a web page. There is NO way whatsoever to get the old user interface back, because it is served directly from Netflix, as opposed to being a native Android user interface.
I agree that it blows. Why can't Netflix make a UI that lets us actually be able to browse ALL of the available titles? For instance, if I check the science fiction movies on the app, I apparently have a choice of about 20 movies or so to watch. Yet, you can search and find all kinds of additional titles. Why can't I just browse the damn library of titles?!?!
After a little bit digging.. Seems to be a server side updated rather than a full app update...

I very much agree. Netflix is quite un-user friendly. Half the time you have to know what you want to watch and search for it, and even then it's very hit and miss. I especially don't follow why Netflix has say... movies 2 and 3 in a series, but not the first one. DEFINITELY needs a massive UI update to allow entirely library browsing. not just whatever 75 titles they feel like showing at the current time.
I got fed up with Netflix, left August 1st.
Once Amazon gets a little better selection I'll head over there.

Just found out about hovernote. As a student who spends many hours researching I always dreamed of having a multi screen like the note 10.1 , unfortunately I bought the p7500 before the note came out.
Spent a few weeks trying to research onskreen cornerstone but that didn't go very far
Then I found out about floating apps. Apps that float on any screen and make multitasking so much easier
You can find it in the play store

This isn't the same kind of multi-tasking that is available on the Galaxy Note.
I thinks is better. With standout being an open source now there are many opportunities. Floating apps will take Android to the next level. There is floating videos, floating Facebook and l bet more will come. The developer who created software got hired by google recently so expect true multitasking abilities out soon .
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
There's actually quite a few good floating apps available
You should have a look at aircalc, darkcalc, performance monitoring (by chainfire) and popup browser. Floating notes is also great

I use both hovenote & aircalc. They make working so much easier. Only thing I am still looking for is a floating calendar (like stock Samsung).
Id the Samsung mini app bar with calculator not enough?

Thanks OP, cool app.
Hi, I'd like if someone can explain to me why android apps never open Web links within the app instead of always redirecting you to the browser like iOS and I never noticed this before but I'm currently using an iPhone along side my Galaxy S3 since I'm in the Caribbean and I just think the iOS way makes more sense especially for apps like cracked and Facebook.... Thoughts?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Because the android apps in question do not have a web browser within them, at least not in the sense of a traditional browser. I can't attest to how iOS works as I have too many qualms with apple to use their products, but I would assume many of their apps also launch a browser for web content, and if they don't its due to integration of a browser within the app.

Hey sorry I'm just noticing the reply and all I'm looking for is a discussion of some sort but a bit of an update I just used the CNN app on my Galaxy and it as in opened links pertaining to the app within itself such as unlocking the live TV and I just think more android apps should do it and also you might be familiar with flip board and how not handles links that's what I mean

If you have a chromecast using xbmc then you know what a pain it is to switch players. I've developed an app that modifies the xml for you. Run the app and select the player of your choice then xbmc will stream to it. The app is functional in its current state with a predefined set of external players. Has option to select from installed apps (not yet programmed). It's ugly as sin, not polished yet.
It's very basic now but it works for me, I wanted to see if there's a demand for such an app. I'll post the alpha app soon if it's useful to anyone else.

Only the preloaded list works currently (the populating list of apps hasn't been programmed yet). The predefined list I got from the internet so I can't guarantee all package names are correct. Let me know if you run into issues or how it's working please.

Also, I apologize for the appearance, it has no icon yet and uses a very simple layout with one button. I'm planning on creating graphics for it and a nice layout.

As the title infers, whenever I download a picture that fits the resolution of the xz3tc (1200X1920), and try to set it as my lockscreen wallpaper in its full glory, my tablet compact always wants to crop it using photos, albums, or any other picture viewing app. Any way to stop this and use the whole photo?

I think that it's standard across most android phones and tablets. I never use it but my missus uses Image to wallpaper app from play store allows you not to crop wallpapers.

Awesome. Thanks for the link. Though the thing with that app, is that it only effects the wallpaper, not the lockscreen. Anyone have any other suggestions?
