Ticker ideas - Continuum General

I think it would be really cool if we could put like the dock down there. Or have like global audio controls and not just the music player. Anybody else think about that?

You are really hopeful :l

I definitely would too. I do like how if you're playing music with the music player you can pause it through the lock screen though

For those that prefer using the phone's browser over the XDA app

I made a request to get a dark theme added to XDA and was thinking that if enough people showed interest it might get the ball rolling. The purpose behind this is that a dark theme would improve our battery life as I'm sure all of you know how these screens work.
Before the peanut gallery chimes in, I have no interest in using the XDA app.
Well the premium app has a black theme, have you tried that?

Your in luck, this has already been done. I don't have the premium app, but I am using the dark theme. Just go into settings, it is there.
:facepalm
Forget I even said anything
edit: Just so nobody takes the above comment wrong: I DO NOT LIKE USING THE XDA APP. I want to add a dark theme to XDA's UserCP options.
I'm not sure why you would want to request a feature you wouldn't use, but more power too you..
I originally opened this thread because I was curious to know why someone would rather use the web broweser instead of the XDA app. So whats the pro/con?
I wanna a thanks button on this app

Where are you getting the idea that I wouldn't use it?
I just like the browser version better. I have it as a bookmark in my LP dock pop up which takes me directly to general or development. With the Miran browser I have other forums in different tabs so I can go back and forth between them easily. Its harder for me to navigate the app than it is to navigate the browser. Also when people reply using the app, 90% of the time it gets put in the quote box and and looks like and an empty post when in fact the reply is jumbled in with someone else's post (see post #4 as an example). The only benefit the app has to me is that the text is formatted a little better for legibility but that can be fixed in the browser by simply double tapping the page and zooming in.
This is how I'd like it to look like.

Off-Topic: MotoActv Rooted! Tiniest Tablet

I know it's tiny and probably pretty silly, but who doesn't want one of these rooted and sporting the Honeycomb launcher and the Android Market?
GPS
WiFi
Bluetooth
FM Radio
relays calls/texts from Moto smartphone in BT range, etc....
plays games
Now that the Team Eos ICS nightlies have (at least temporarily) satisfied my need for major new tech expenditure, as I feel like my Xoom has been reborn, I really want this cute little feller, but not as a fitness watch (ugh!).
What do you all think?

The root process fairly simple adding apps is a bit tough cuz you have to pull them from another device and adb install them to the motoactv.
You also have to do some key remapping to get a menu to work.
This is where most of us have been posting ..

You're right...it's a watch/mp3 player that plays Angry Birds. How cool is that?
I could see some potential for using it has an interface for notifications on your tablet or phone.
e.g notification comes in on your phone and you see it on your watch - so you don't even need to pull out your phone.
I'm not sure if it has a vibrator in it, but that could also be an interesting alarm clock!

TSF launcher on the Note

Has anyone got TSF launcher working on the Note after device reboot?
I've paid 16 bucks for this, and every time I restart my phone it force close and TW launcher would come up instead!!!
Also, where is the dialer? Or I've to go through Contacts, then dial the phone???
These things are uncalled for, they should have provided a demo, not the lengthy show off video...

For me it works fine (CriskeloRomNOTE V7)
I installed but I think that is early... in a future, maybe is a great launcher... need more time!
Maybe I did something wrong, but I can't think of anything other than regular install of the launcher...

In the devs defence, the videos I've seen on YouTube are very impressive. I definitely think it would be worth a trial to ensure its worth its value, but in what I've seen its completely different from most other things around.
Please don't assume all launchers are of the same value... may as well buy a £10 feature phone because the N7000's £600 is a rip off in comparison!

What you say is like who in their right mind would pay $1 million dollar house, or $500,000 for a Bentley! If you can afford it, then there's no problem of buying it...
I have ADW and Go, but ADW was really good on my tablet not the Note and Go lags all the time... It's a mattet of preference, as if we all had the same taste/preference, no competition between products would arise!

It's not as good as in demo video. Developer will add features in time it seems.

hmm? most of the features that are in the demo are in this version. a few icons look different here and there (ie. folder icon), but for the most part, its more or less the same. the only thing that is notably different is the music widget not being as good as the demo made it seem.
@OP - uhhh... you just use the app called 'phone'. it launches samsung's default phone app.
its not a bad launcher, but not worth the $15.
for $15, i would expect something along the lines of SPB Shell 3d launcher - where its not just a launcher UI, but also includes a whole range of custom widgets that provide useful functionality.
Add missing map widget. Also it's just launcher. It needs more widgets.
I cannot add shortcuts. Missing live wallpapers. A folder animation is missing.

Stock sgs3 gallery app sucks

Anyone else notice....it seperates the pictures all over the place inside the app. Anyway i can move them around into proper spots. Example, it has all my dled pics in three different downloaded folders...i just need one.
totally agree.
cant wait to root so i can get the stock ics gallery back
agreed! Looks cluttered and ugly. Are there any recommended apps to use in place of it?
I personally use tsf gallery widget, more cool! And fun!

I have tried to push several gallery apps and they all have the same look, I really hate the stock SG3 gallery app, what I would like is to have the same look as the gallery 3d version. I have tried quick pic, and its nice but I don't like the new look I really enjoyed the old 3d look. Anyone have any luck trying to get it installed, I can't get the gallery 3d apk to install. Thanks for the help
This thread delivers! Both of these recommendations are lightyears better than the included gallery. Thanks. Never really knew that I had such a problem with the gallery.

Halo is interesting, but I'm not a huge fan. I really don't have a use case for it. I also don't really like constantly having the halo on my screen when I'm not using it. Lots of people seem to love it though.

I guess I'm just not a fan of how multitasking is implemented with Halo. I applaud the developers for making it, but it's just not for me. Honestly, I wish Google would just add an app drawer to Android that can be accessed from within any app. Part of my problem with Halo is that I have to preconfigure which apps I can multitask with (notifications notwithstanding), rather than being able to fire up any app I want regardless of what I happen to be doing at the time.
