You mean like Snapchat? Text over a screenshot or drawing like in MS Paint? Just use a picture editor. Go to the Play Store and search for picture editor and find your favorite one. Dozens of options.

true ,but i was just thinking maybe there was one specifically for screenshots. (like the one in note and huawei mate phones)
but i think there is nothing like that for the nexus xD
i will stick to the editors like you suggested.
thanks for the feedback.

Had no idea about those other phones, I've been running with nexus phones since 2010 or 2011.

best choice trust me , owned galaxy's (s2/s5 note 4)
jumped to the nexus series in 2015 got nexus 6 loved it up until i noticed it had terrible banding, still used it for about 8 months , recently got the 6p (thankfully no banding) nothing beats stock android on nexus phones.

Screenshot crop and share on play store, just search it, some Roms even have it built in, can write, blur things out, all kinds of stuff

I use keep. I share the screenshot to keep, then write with the pen tool, and then share the note... which is shared as an image. Pretty effective way IMO if you don't want to have any extra apps lying around. You have to tap the share icon twice (one for the screenshot, another one after doodling) but you're gonna have to do that with pretty much every app.

Didn't even think to do this, saves installing another app.. gotta get used to it, but pretty useful.
Thanks

Fake Cracked Screen App

Has anyone been able to find a nice app that looks like your screen is cracked to prank someone? I've seen them available for iphones, androids, and blackberries. Pretty slick apps.
There is one available at htcpedia.com
its ok I got my wife pretty good with it but after doing it twice was very bored but it does look ok
Check there apps tab to see if they are still running it
if not let me know I will upload it here

dont forget to check options I think it in french but simple enough to work out if it doesnt look right choose the other option for screen resolution
I just search ibroke on google looks like there are some newer versions with more options give that a shot too and they're in english
This thread got me interested at work, so for fun I searched Google Images for an image of 800x480 dimensions, with the words "cracked" etc, and found one quickly which did the job great!
I'm on my phone now so unabl to repeat search easily, but it's there!

[Q] Disable Contact Photos in Messaging/SMS?

Hey there. I'm pretty new to the whole android thing, but i've with the help of a friend installed FroyoBread. With it came a new layout in the messaging part of the system, i guess, which include some space for pictures of my contacts. I managed to disable this in the actual contact list, but in messaging i am yet to find a way to disable it.
Just to give an idea of what im talking about, its the grey boxes to the left:
i.imgur.com/2Zwmz.png
Now i've tried this Handcert thing, but quite frankly i can't be arsed to configure it, etc, since the default one here is much better looking if it wasnt for the contact pictures.. Im not fly enough to have pictures of my friends and i dont sync it with facebook or anything like that, so i'd rather see it gone if its possible.
Thanks!
I don't think there is an option for that...
Btw, I may help for making an option in FroyoBread

Shame there isn't an option... Pretty weird too.
But yeah, sure, that'd be great! Something you'd plan in doing in the next version or?
Thanks for FroyoBread, too, great job
Already done, it will be included in v017.

WoW! Multi-tasking browser?? Link!

WoW!!!
How good does this look?
Only prob is it is not a free app, and probably rightly so as I have never seen an android browser do this before!
If anyone gets it, post review here.
Enjoy

ok i had to try this.. works great. I cant wait until all apps can work in a window like this.. Im guessing its using the widget resize technology.
Thanks for the heads up.

Here is score and a few things it did not do so well on. Looks like its good for basic browsing.
Hope this is helpful
I am running on Vache rom with the acer rings wifi patch and 3.01 patch.
This is pretty darn sweet. Thanks for the find MJ-12, and thanks ER for the screenshots. Worth double the price.
Your very welcome I have been using it all day.
Its kinda a taste to what I think android will become. The same Dev has a few other floating. Apps. Like a calculator.
definitely cool enough to drop a buck and a half on. I played with it for a few minutes and then moved on but when the time comes and I need a couple browsers at the ready Ive got an app for that!
If any developers are interested in how he's doing it, he's registering the app as a service and drawing to the notification layer which also allows you to intercept (and act upon) touch events.
Not saying this app is doing it, but beware of apps that request those permissions, they could in theory log every touch on your screen.
Chrome Beta does much better

Chrome beta scores 350 approx already... guess they might add such feature in the future
That is pretty slick. They have a calculator that does the same thing too. True multitasking here we come!
Just tried it, works great, thanks for sharing!
had this since i read about it on...... where was it, phandroid or android central, one of the two.
definetly worth the money. don't use it that much but its really nice when i do.
tip: leave browser defaults unchecked, so your tab prompts you to choose a browser and you can choose overskreen. its like window's "open link in new window"

Run Apps in Windows

Hey guys,
I was wondering if there is any sort of way to have apps open in windows instead of opening on the entire screen. I for some reason remember seeing something like this a while back but I don't know if I'm just having created memories or if I actually saw it.
Thanks for any help
Yea there is some company that tried to market it to OEMs for gingerbread a while back I believe. I haven't seen much recently on this accept that the ipad has a hack for jail-broken devices that allows this feature, so considering the floating apps android already supports and androids superior multitasking it should be possible if some really awesome devs work it into a ROM of find an incredible mod for stock ROMSs. This has always interested me so hopefully we can find how possible it is and maybe someone could get it done.
Edit;
Found the article on this, not as old as I thought, but it is still on an older version of Android.

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping it was already implemented somewhere. Maybe we will see it in the future of this device
There is an app for this?

Hope this helps mate, also if you give it a go, perhaps let us know how you get on with it?

Aw =( it says it isn't Compatible with my device. Maybe it has to do with my DPI setting
Edit: No go. Would have loved it if it did work. I'll message the dev

same here mate(uk)
Yea, I have the overscreen browser and aircalc calculator, I had to sideload the browser from my transformer though as the nexus is unsupported. But I would still like to see a mod or ROM that allows this for all apps, much like this mod for the ipad.

Do you mean the background that was shown just today on a phone that hasn't been released yet? Is that the background you want?

Nah...I really don't care for it, and you are welcome.
You do realize that the question you posted is completely free of any kind of value, right? The phone has not been released yet as you know and as pointed out by scott14719.what makes you think anyone would have anything from the aforementioned device? So yes his post was more than helpful.

Well, I felt a little nice today, so I used this new search engine called Google. It finds all kinds of stuff...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snviPlIndHo
There are a couple of "clicks" involved, but nothing to technical. It's not really "official' but it's the closest you are probably going to get for now.
Enjoy.
p.s. if this isn't what you want or need just give it a little while and it will start popping up.
