I want the lockscreen widget but I'm running on custom ROM with 4.1.1

^ I prefer Go Launcher as a sort of "Gateway" into better launchers. And yes, Go Locker is garbage. It's more worth it to pay the 2$ or so and get WidgetLocker.

Chameleon Launcher is out for phones. Anybody try it yet?

Anyone know of a launcher that's good for non-touchscreen devices? I have Android-x86 on my Asus netbook, but using the mouse to tap-drag (especially with the touchpad) is a PITA.

Good concept, but not for me. I prefer the most classic experience where you actually go into the app to scroll through your feed and what not.
Theres also limited functionality to this launcher, you can't customize things that much.

Trying out Google Keep. Looks like a pretty good note taker.

It just got released recently.

I had ColourNote installed and now with Google Keep, there's no need for that.

Posted this in the nexus 4 thread but thought you guys might enjoy it too.

Tasker:

Quote:

I'm going to try to explain, but I only purchased it last night so I'm still pretty new at the whole Tasker thing myself, but the possibility is limitless. In a nutshell, it's a phone automation app that allows you to automate a lot of the functions of your phone. It has great support (albiet only one developer) and they recently updated to the Holo UI. You can probably replace a lot of the apps in your phone right now if you know how to set it up properly. To give you an example of how it could be used, these are some of the things I have set up:

-When my earphones are plugged in, my music application BeyondPod will start automatically and start playing music

-I have a profile set up to recognize the cell towers near my work. When I am at work, it turns on the wifi (turns off 3g). When I am not in range of my work cell towers, it turns off wifi and turns on 3g.

-When USB is plugged into my phone, screen dim delay is set to 5 minutes. Unplugged, back to 15 seconds

-GPS is turn on when Maps and Navi app is opened, toggled off when they are closed

-In the morning after my alarm is snoozed Reddit will automatically open and Beyondpod is opened+playing at the same time

There are way more functionalities that I haven't even been able to get into yet. I have read of some guy that takes the train from work everyday, and he would have to message his wife to pick him up. He set up Tasker to message his wife 10 minutes before he arrives at the station, along with which station he will arrive at (because he takes different routes). Crazy!

It's like a ... programming app with a user interface for your phone. Read up on it.

^Sounds a lot like Llama, but hopefully easier to use - Llama is powerful, but complex.

^i just tired that app. doesnt seem to want to connect to my phone for some reason. i have my phone i debug mode and the button to connect to phone is greyed out

Been trying a number of different call recorder apps on my Desire HD with JellyTime (JB ROM)... none of them work fully. The ones that do work at all seem to take a lot of tweaking just to get one side of a call recording, or just incoming or outgoing calls... and none of them seem to work with Bluetooth.

Then I tried https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...x.callrecorder - got the demo from XDA, installed it, ran it... and it JUST WORKED. Incoming and outgoing; both parties; phone, speaker, or Bluetooth... everything JUST WORKS, no tweaking or futzing required.

Highly recommend giving it a try if you're looking for a call recorder app.
