I've noticed a very useful disable option for almost every app in the 4.3 Android version...! I wanted to root my Xperia very much to disable the crap from Sony and Google and save my battery life... And this option is everything that I need... When some app is disabled, she disappear from the menu and it can be found only in app menu under "disabled ". And it's great because it work for almost every app - Google Chrome, Sony Select and the other garbage... I've searched in Google - there was nothing, so I share it with you.... I'm sorry if it's in the wrong section....

Have it since 4.2. It is not a feature of 4.3.

Nothing new about that... That feature goes around since the early 4.x... But it is a handy feature indeed... On a cheaper Phone like for work you can simply disable almost everything and this is all in favour of the battery...

Yes, a handy tool indeed... Mind you, not all apps can be disabled.

Is there anyway to get persistent notifications? I am using jellybro and my wife is still stock. Neither ROM seems to support the feature.
I want my phone to beep every few minutes to remind me of missed calls and text messages.

Is this the sort of thing you were looking for?

Exactly! You are the man! Don't understand why such a basic feature was removed from android. Doesn't seem like I should need an app for this. Thanks a million!

It's part of the official Facebook app on our phones....
On my i9300 (cm10.1) i can enable it from the options into the notification
Is Damn awful. My lock screen seemed to literally disappear when I was running it.

To work properly, you must update the Facebook apps. I'm from Mexico and works properly.

Actually, that means that the county isn't supported yet. Just download the .apk file and run it. It will work.

second that..
if people were loosing time with normal FB apps cant imagine how they will deal with a fb launcher.. :/ :/
addiction at 200%
Thank you for sharing.
Wow, it's not that it doesn't work well, it's rather smooth but... it manages to be underwhelming and overkill at the same time. It doesn't do half facebook actually allows but going so far as to create a launcher with whatever it actually has being so spread out... wasn't really necessary. All we needed was a decent app. Like one that wouldn't linger in the background consuming memory and battery at all times. A smooth interface would also be cool, not that laggy crap most people experience.
But that's just what i think. I'm not replacing my launcher with this.
There is already a thread for this in Themes and Apps. Please utilize that one, as it was created first.

searching and reading can show you everything you need to know.
Only thing ive disabled is google play apps auto update.
My brightness is always at max and disabling auto updates helped me out greatly. You really don't need latest updated apps to run. Just go home and update them manually while charging.
My phone goes through over 12 hours on a single charge. But then I am not a heavy user. Just facebook, web browsing, emails when I am not on ky desks. Maybe 1 hour of phone conversation daily.

I have got mine as well...Its pretty cool!
Got it last night, it's pretty cool but there's a ton of options that need to be added
I got it also but it just sits at the main screen, not sure what's going on with it.

I can't do anything when it's started, I see only the welcome screen with "one" dot to switch between, so it's not doing anything...

It seems to be an auto creator, so we don't create movies it does it from the pictures itself. That's what I've gotten from it, anyways.

Same here. It only looks for a series of pictures taken on the same day.
I was looking for some sort of menu, but there's nothing there.

I think it is going to be like HTC ones zoe..
Hope this gets more features. It a nice app.
You can actually use movie creator to edit your videos. You can trim videos or make them slow motion.

That option was available before that app comes out.

I am just hoping that as Sony develop the app further if at all that they will add the ability for us to manually choose our own desired images then auto create on confirmation, it would be nice to be able to just pick and go.
Does anyone knows what app can join/merge videos?
Thanks
