A Child's Letter posted:I'm sure it's because I'm dumb, but I have a Samsung Infuse 4G (rooted) onto which I'm trying to install the Swype Beta. I froze the original Swype with Titanium Backup and downloaded the beta installer, but after jumping through the hoops and pressing install, I get a "Application not installed" message. Frozen is still installed. Make a backup of Swype then uninstall it. ManMythLegend posted:Holy cow. Thanks for this. I'm loving the quick controls. I loved quick controls on the Honeycomb browser. It's just too bad the rest of the browser was slow and didn't handle Flash well.

Roundboy posted:I even wiped online and started over, but I still get bad meta data that just doesn't exist local. Currently 100% off my stuff is online, and I moved a single album local using the Google music app, and showing only offline stuff gives me a much bigger list then just the one, not to mention I can't find out anywhere in local or internal storage. Moving stuff to a music folder results in duplicate entries Every song you play gets cached on your device whether you want it to or not. Music is stored, with a stupid naming scheme, in sdcard/android/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music. Interestingly, I just checked that folder on mine and it has a nomedia file in it.

LastInLine posted:Swype deletes words at a time if you hold the backspace key. It'd be nicer if you could swipe from right to left to delete words to be honest, but what can you do. How would this be distinguishable from Swyping right to left to spell a word (like "la")?

Maytag posted:Yeah I'm not looking to lock things down all crazy, the number of people I'm around who could figure out how to search for hidden files is pretty small. I don't care if some complete stranger thief sees stuff, it's more for a family member or some nosy jerk at work. You could remove the extension of the pictures, then if you click on them in ES File Explorer, it'll ask you if you want to open it as an image/video/audio/document. Downside is you have to open them individually rather than flipping through them, but if you give them obscure system-type names, nobody is going to look at them.

letsgoflyers81 posted:You're welcome. Aaaaand it looks like they have a new desktop with the same new features and will also give up to an extra 5GB. I plan on taking 1080p videos and uploading until I get my free 10GB and then never use auto upload again. Desktop and app are the same 5 GB. If you get it from one, you don't get it from the other (but you can probably use both to get to 5).

On the topic of chrome to phone, it doesn't even work for me any more. Likely because I've flashed so many roms and there's an activation limit, but no way to clear it. I simply can't login anymore.

I'm not sure of this ever got mentioned, but Cerberus anti-theft is giving away free licenses through today through their Facebook page. I can't easily provide a link right now but I'm sure you can find it. You have to download the app and create an account first, then give them your cerberus ID and email through their web form. Seems like a pretty nice app.

Vagrancy posted:Google play 3.5.15 is rolling out. It adds "Installed" and "All" tabs to My apps, the ability to sort reviews by Helpful/Newest as well as the ability to filter out reviews for other devices/older versions. It also fixes some issues with updates/installation. Finally. The one thing I always liked about the iOS App Store over the Market was that the App Store showed reviews for the current version, so you didn't have to read through a bunch of reviews about bugs that were fixed months ago. edit: not seeing how to mess with reviews shown Edit2: never mind, have to click on "see all" first.

Maker Of Shoes posted:When the cost of entry for the majority of apps is $1-$2 bucks then yes $4 would be considered pricey. Did I have a problem paying it? No. Good apps are worth money and especially a launcher. There is literally no other app on your phone you interact with more than it. I'd say I spend way more time in greader or Awful on any given day than on my homescreen or app drawer. Do you just stare at your homescreen or what?
