Android :: Switch Apps Without Going To Home

Nov 25, 2009

Have the Eris. One of the things I liked about Nokias was you could download an app that would let you pull up a task/application switcher from any application by holding down a key.the Eris pulls up last six opened apps when you hold down home button, but there should be a way to open one of the various task switcher/kiillers and open apps using a similar method.Cant seem to find that in app store. am i missing something?

Android :: App To Switch To Home Screen After Call

Dec 13, 2009

I have searched the forums, but can't find the information about the app which automatically directs you back to the home screen after a call. I accidently call people and this was very handy. It pulled up the home screen rather than displaying the phone. However, when the recent update was pushed over the air, my phone shut down and required a hard reset. The app was lost and I can't remember the name. Does anyone know?

A side question: Was this update the switch to 2.0 for the Eris? I ran the update, but my phone still says it is running the 1.5 firmware. I obviously had a serious problem with the update and I am not sure it came through.

Motorola Droid 2 :: Cant Switch Between Home / Launcher Pro?

Oct 8, 2010

OK so I have launcher pro plus as my home replacement, but I wanted to go back to the stock home launcher and I cant. I tried home switcher, also tried clear home defaults too, nothing has been working. I went into manage apps and neither 1 is set as a default, so I cant clear the default. I tried a force stop on launcher pro but that didn't work either. I don't wanna un install launcher pro bc I have it set up nicely, I just want to set up the stock home for fun and giggles.

I think I hit something while I was asleep and deactivating my alarm clock. My phone has this stupid blue screen with shortcuts on the bottom. I want to return to the standard home screen. In addition, whenever I try to make a call the phone makes the call with my speakerphone activated. It's a Galaxy SII Skyrocket.

HTC 4G : APPs Be There When I Switch To EVO From INC?

May 20, 2010

I think I know the answer to this, but, I am returning my Incredible for a EVO..When I do this, and download AppBrain, and have it sync my apps, will everything I had downloaded/purchased for the Incredible show up and be available for me to download/install on my EVO?

I assume 2.1 is 2.1, and I should be able to get all the "offiicial" stuff; things like Swype, and others may take awhile to show up for the EVO.

HTC EVO 4G :: Downloaded Launcher Pro And Switch Pro Apps

Jul 25, 2010

I downloaded launcher pro and switch pro apps. Then I installed a non-market app I got from xda (gallery3d if it matters). After installing that app, launcher pro required a force quit. Now I have my switch pro widget near the bottom of the screen on the home screen. When launcher pro reloaded and put back all my widgets, it looks like it sort of mirrored the switch app on the bottom, behind the dock where the phone and contacts buttons are. It's sort of half on and half off the screen. I can't long press on it, or interact with it in any way. I have tried reloading the switch pro widget, but that doesn't do anything. I have also tried restarting launcher pro, which also has no effect. Rebooting the phone also does not solve. Weird, huh? What do you all think?

General :: Apps Purchased Since Switch To Google Play Won't Download?

Mar 10, 2012

I purchased apps, via Google Play, and now can't download them. Not just to my Xoom, but also my SGS2. I've tried all download fix options on the Google site, even talked to a tech (who asked I do them again, and then respond via email).

Another option would be to do a factory wipe/reset. Since I'm playing around with ICS, I decided to revert back to factory on the Xoom and try again. Still no luck. Just stays at "Starting download". No percentage. No little "downloading..." message under it. Can't even cancel it from downloading.

And I've tried the following options:
Cleared the cache and/or data
Uninstalled updates
Logged in and out of the "Talk" app several times
Rebooted
Tried requesting from the store web page on my desktop
Tried over different wifi networks
Tried over Verizon
Tried over AT&T
Tried with ICS 4.0.3
Tried with Gingerbread 2.3.6
Tried with Honeycomb 3.2.6
Tried with a factor reset/wiped Xoom (using .img files directly from the Motorola web site)
I have plenty of free space available

I know if this doesn't get resolved, both of my android devices will have become useless to me.

Android :: Open Home & Apps Worth It?

Mar 21, 2010

Just curious for an opinion or two I've been tempted to download Open Home from Better Android because of all their cool icons, skins, and other things. At the same time, I see comments about it slowing down the phone significantly or causing all sorts of forced closes, etc.Are most people using and liking Better Android apps? I've got an HTC Dream, so I'm on the old operating system. Not sure if that makes a difference.

Android :: Want To Switch To Android / Are These Apps Available?

Nov 27, 2010

Current iphone owner, considering moving to an android phone as I am fed up having to jailbreak the phone to do things I want.However, before I make the switch I just want to make sure that there are two things that I can currently do on my iphone that I am just wondering if I am able to do it via android. They may seem very very petty, but really they are so useful I cant imagine a phone without them.

1) An equivilent of the iphone app 'wikipanion plus'. Basically I MUST (!) have a good wiki app which has the same functionality as this app- namely, that it allows me to 'queue' articles that I want to read but dont want to just now. This may sound so irrelevant, but I use it ten times a day! I understand wiki plus is not available on android itself for some reason, but perhaps there is an equivilent?

2) An equivilent of the jailbroken iphone app 'auto silent' whcih can disable any on-board silent swithces and put silent mode on a timer (of course, with a manual overide). I am staggered that I must jailbreak my iphone to get this.

Android :: Scrollable Widgets In Alternative Home Apps

May 31, 2010

Many people would like to see scrollable widgets on their Home. As you may know, current Android stock Home doesn't support it, and HTC Sense doesn't provide any API.We propose to create an open source standard for an Home extension code allowing devs to create 3rd party widgets which support scrolling (list view).The principe have been implemented, and succesfully tested in Home++ and Pure messenger widget.Now, after discussing with other Home creators, we'd like to generalize this and include it in other Home applications. Few other Home applications devs are already integrating the Home++ code to evaluate this (FreedHome, Tag Home and HelixLauncher 1).Here is the list of interested parteners: - Helix Launcher - FreedHome - Tag Home - ADW Launcher - LauncherPro beta - GDE.During this first phase we'd like to focus on scrollable widgets but other extensions could be imagined (animations, gestures)If Google wants to use it for the next Android release, we would be very happy, but for now, the goal is to include it in a large number of alternative Home applications.

Android : Handcent To HomeScreen - Apps Vanished When Press Home Button

May 13, 2010

I have the motorola droid. I got the handcent app because I really like all the customization options within it. However, lately I have been having this annoying problem. Sometimes when I have just sent a message, when I press the home button to return to the homescreen, it goes home but all my apps have vanished. I can go through my menu and replace them all to where they were, or I can reboot the phone and that usually corrects it. It is still annoying and is really putting me off the app. Has anyone else had this problem? Do you know if there is a specific cause or how I can correct it?

Android :: BetterCut - Apps Organizer - FolderOrganizer - Changing Icons On Home Screens

Jun 14, 2010

I am wanting to change the icons for a lot of my apps on my home screens. I have been looking at BetterCut, Apps Organizer, and Folder Organizer. Now Apps Organizer is free and Folder Organizer has a free trial version, but Better cut is not free not does BetterCut have a free trial version.

Please tell me what you like/dislike about the apps, primarily BetterCut and Folder Organizer (paid).

*How do they run?

*Are there any major bugs?

Is it easy to change the icons for apps on my home screens?

*Is BetterCut really worth $2?

*Is Folder Organizer really worth $1.35?

Are any of these going to meet my needs of wanting to change the icons on my home screens?

*Are the icons dependant on the app that changed them (in other words, if I uninstall BetterCut after changing an icon, will the icon still be what I changed it to, or will it go back to the default icon)?

*If you had $2 and could only choose one of these apps to change the icons on your home screen, which would you choose?

I am going to play around with the two free versions of these apps and see if I like them, but unfortunately, BetterCut is an all or nothing app. I just don't want to feel like I wasted any money because the app ended up not doing what I wanted it to do.

Samsung Moment :: Home Replacement Apps

Feb 7, 2010

The Android Applications forum keeps misleading me because people talk about apps and features that aren't available in Android 1.5, so I thought I'd ask the other Moment owners about home replacement apps. I think I'd like something, but I'm really hesitant to pay for one that I may not like, and I also worry that I'd not really understand all I could do with one and therefore not truly appreciate it.

I've also seen very mixed reviews on nearly every home replacement app.

So I'm curious about the opinions of other Moment owners on these home replacement apps and also if there are any good places for thorough information on them.

HTC EVO 4G : Add To Home Shortcuts Cause Apps To Background Launch

Jun 7, 2010

Leading up to my purchase of the new EVO I familiarized myself with some battery-life-saving tips. One of the tips was associated with reducing the number of Widgets on the Home Screen(s) that are pulling data in the background.

QUESTION: if one doesn't use widgets but uses App icons and Shortcuts does the addition of those NON-widget items cause the associated apps to launch by themselves in the background MORE THAN if they were NOT "short-cutted" onto the Home Screen pages??

I'm trying to determine how/what I'm doing that might cause apps to launch in the background when I don't really want them to. I'm using Advanced Task Killer to see what is running in the background and have NO CLUE why some stuff is turning on when they do. A recent LARGE list of running apps that I did NOT turn on coincidentally coincided with some Home Screen short-cut non-widget add-ons I recently placed.
