Nope no root needed for Nova. They just launched 2.0 which is supposedly even lower memory usage, faster and more features. I do notice a slight improvement in speed and smoothness after updating.

other than beautiful widgets, are there any free widgets for customization?

anyone play hill climb game

Yeah haha, they got the quad bike, tank and rally car. Getting kinda boring though

Just started playing Blood brothers. Pretty addicting RPG LOL :concentrate:

New launcher, supposed to replicate GoogleNow. shows promise but still looks a bit unfinished:

SF Launcher is like Google Now for your entire phone... sort of | MobileSyrup.com

If you're into spending the time, you can try UCCW. Or your can go on xda and get premade widgets for it.

I kinda like that. Thing I find with pretty much every launcher I've tried, is aside from some cosmetic differences (fancy page transitions, adjustable rows and columns, etc.), they all follow the same basic design. This at least changes it up somewhat. I read a review recently about another launcher that's really stripped-down and simple... wanted to try it but there's no free or demo version, only a paid version. Can't remember what it's called...

Edit: Aahhh, I think this was the one: http://www.androidauthority.com/acti...atures-137537/ - has a "Start Button" type menu that kinda appeals to me.

is swiftkey flow going to be a free upgrade for those with swiftkey 3?

No idea, even if it is a separate app, I don't mind paying Swiftkey another few bucks. They really make an awesome keyboard.

On the frugal side, they do put the keyboard on sale very often.

it should be a free upgrade....

is swiftkey better than swype? Swype is the thing that got me onto android from iphone. It's a necessity for me now

Swiftkey Flow (currently in beta) adds swype, although its behaviour is a little different than the stock Android keyboard. Overall I think it's a better keyboard - better predictions, self-learning (the stock one you have to go through two or three steps to add new words on the fly), and can also read from your Facebook, Twitter, Gmail and SMS accounts for its dictionary (so it knows the words you use most).

From Swype to Swiftkey Flow to the Jelly Bean Android keyboard, I find I prefer Swype's UI and input methods the most. I like Swiftkey Flow Beta, but Swype Beta just seems smoother and more intelligent for me, after trying both for weeks/months each.

If Swiftkey Flow improves more, I may change my mind, but I've always preferred Swype to traditional "input" methods.

Still waiting for a solid sports app for my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1

I love the way the TSN app is on the Ipad but nothing I've found so far works on my Tab.

everyone give super gnes a try, download some super nintendo games, its a great emulator, little hard to use cuz touch screen but overall i love it!

Anyone know a chess app that plays with AI but instead of 'level' , u work up your ranking so it get more challenging? I had an app on the ios like that, but can't seem to find one on android

CARBON for Twitter
pretty slick app

been playing fun run

https://lh4.ggpht.com/76opRG7fgVDBc4...URqW6UqAY=h230

Does it have widget support?

Doesn't look like it atm.

carbon is still fairly new, it does look good, but im sticking to falcon pro until it has more features.

no widget, no in app browser

Swiftkey needs to add Chinese support. It's been way too long.
