Weird, I haven't had any of those issues on either my X2 or Nook Color. I'm loving the app though.

Thanks, that seems to work well enough. The widget only lacks scroll, but I rarely have to do that now that it's more compressed. It's supposed to be ad supported, but I haven't seen any yet. RE: Pure Grid, I'm not gonna try a calendar that charges for both parts without some kind of demo.

If you're looking for Sense-style widgets, GOLauncher has a calendar widget that mimics it, as does Android Pro Widgets, LauncherProPlus, and Colorize Widgets. I'd recommend Android Pro Widgets myself.

APW seems to be a carbon-copy of Sense calendar, thanks! I should spring for the full version to get the compressed view, but the free one is great on its own.

Is it just me or is the amazon app store a complete and utter waste? The whole "Free App a day" is a gimmick if 95% of the apps are absolute crap games. Google's 10 cent sale is going to have way better deals than all of the apps that amazon has released for free. The clunky interface along with the annoying installation reminders, random high CPU usage and the delayed app updates make it a pain. I've bought apps on the market that I got for free on amazon just so I wouldn't have to put up with amazon.

The question is would we have got the 10c deals if Amazon had never started their own market?

Manky posted:AHHH YES. Thank you! Why the hell that preference is there and not under the drat drawer preferences... Whatever, cool beans. Sorry about that. I guess I misread what you had said. Yeah, categories/groups are still there, but it's seriously gimped (in my opinion) from what it used to be like. Grawl posted:I found a fun app last night while looking for something else. I was trying to find an app that'd shut down wifi for me when the tablet was not used, and instead found Sleep Bot Tracker. You press a button when you go to sleep, you press it when you wake up and in the end you get stats about how much you sleep. I've been using this for a few months and it's great. Took a while to get in the habit of punching in every night but now I do so without even noticing. Geekner posted:Are there any good replacements for the Sense calendar widget? Specifically the agenda view. I don't remember if it's anything like Sense (haven't been on it since I rooted back in July), but I really dig Agenda Widget. The amount of customizability it has is great. Plus, it has scrolling.

El Grillo posted:I could do with some help. I hadn't updated my apps for ages, loaded up the market today to do so, virtually all of them (20+) needed updating so I was like what the hell and hit 'update all'. Cue a day full of HTC Desire S -related agony. Not sure if it's still relevant to you, but whatever you do, I hope you don't pull the battery out, since there is a chance that that can kill your Desire S. Try power + vol up + vol down for force shutdown instead. As for the market update causing your phone to crash, I suggest you to go to My Apps on the Market app and cancel the downloads one by one. I got impatient from the same update all -> freeze issue that you are experiencing, pulled the battery, and killed my phone. Oops.

Can someone explain why Currents is only available in the US? I can understand music and voice, but I really don't know why a news reader needs to be geo-locked.

ZShakespeare posted:Can someone explain why Currents is only available in the US? I can understand music and voice, but I really don't know why a news reader needs to be geo-locked. I think the clue lies in the fact that adding a source currently says "Add for Free." After using it a bit more it has become clear to me what Currents is not, and that's a news reader. Sure, some blogs have created feeds for the Current app and you can even add RSS Feeds into it, but short form news snippets isn't quite what this is about. For example, the very minimum automatic sync interval you can have is 6 hours and initiating a manual sync isn't very user friendly. It's slow and the manual refresh button isn't always easy to get to. We all know how fast the news headlines move today, so how is that even remotely useful then? The answer is that this isn't the right tool for that job. The purpose of this app is to allow sites to publish content like a magazine editions. So, you wouldn't use Currents for checking up on news on Droid Life every 30 minutes during the course of the day. However, if you wanted to read that news once a day like a magazine, this would be your app. This gets even more clear if you start looking at other content like Scientific American or Popular Science. So, it's an attempt to publish content to devices in a more coherent and long form fashion. So, how does that relate to non-US? I'm assuming there's licensing issues involved, especially when they launch paid content (and I'm sure they probably will.) Google is probably treading lightly in order to get partners on board and one of those provisions is likely "don't publish this content outside of the US." Sure, right now the content is what's available on the actual websites. I suspect this will not remain that way for long though.

A couple of decent productivity or fun apps (Shazam, Camera), 1 or 2 good games (Game Dev Story) and a the rest being obscure/terrible shovelware. Still, at 10c, it flies right under my "actual money" radar and I'm snapping them up anyway. I'd like Google to release numbers on this promotion after it's over because even normal people I know have been getting in on these 10c deals in a way I've never seen before.

What do you guys think of WidgetLocker? I keep reading it will drain your battery and slow your phone down but those are comments from the market, so who knows. So anyone use it and see their battery time go down noticeably?

Go to Android Settings, Display, Notification Flash, and see if anything is unchecked. I have everything checked and I've never had a problem with the LED for any version of Gmail.

I had a ton of problems with it on my Sense phone and still had some issues on CM7. Now that's I've got it working right I love it but I won't lie; getting it to that point was a bitch.

It does royally flip the gently caress out once every few days and takes a few seconds to unlock though. It happens so infrequently that I don't really notice it but I use my phones heavily.

I recently got in on ADW EX at .10 cents and have been configuring it but I have found a frustrating problem. It does not support a notification of unread emails using a exchange email account with the default email application. I have installed ADW notifier (enabled Chuck Norris mode) and it just displays a question mark in the notification bubble. The only solution I've seen is to route all exchange emails thorough gmail which is not really an option. I have googled all over for an answer and pretty much the consensus is that it just isn't supported. Anyone deal with something similar? I would even be okay with a 1x1 widget displaying number of unread emails.

I bought ADW EX yesterday, and had to turn on the thing where your widgets look normal instead of ugly when you are scrolling. Needless to say, it made my phone lag like heck. On top of that, I've been trying to find how to go down to only 4 screens instead of 5. I switched back to LPP and I am pretty content with keeping that. Also, the new Twitter app is terrible. The UI is ugly, runs slow, and lists the users by their profile name instead of Twitter handle. As a person who doesn't follow people I know in real life, I find it frustrating. Does anyone know where I can get the previous version? Today's apps look like stuff I don't care about. Games on Android are boring if you are a person who plays console games often. They need to put more useful apps/utilities on there. Here's hoping for WidgetLocker. ----------------
