Certainly is :D

It's as if someone in charge at Android Dev said "right... you, you and you are no longer working on the new Android Your remit is now to look at this mahoosive list of "wants" by Android users and start fixing them!"

:D
 
Anyone recommend an alternative to splashtop hd, bought it for my Motorola Xoom last year but the most recent update has resulted in horrendous stuttering when trying to stream.

Yet on my One X it works flawlessly in exactly the same location so can't be a wifi issue.

Aye, press and hold the first one till it highlights then just tap the rest you want followed by the circle with the line through it at the top right of the screen to delete them all.

It is immediately reflected on the website as well. I had about 8 pages of non-installed apps fro the past 3 years. It dropped to 4 as soon as I hit refresh.

Cheers, didnt realise that you could bulk delete them, was just about to come in here and have a rant about it:p
 
Sure :)

Swiping away e-mails like notifications is beyond awesome, no more ticking the check box and archiving/deleting!
 
Giving the latest nova beta a try and it is very good! Sooo smooth and fast compared to apex especially on the homescreens. Plus I don't seem to have as many redraws with it. Just wish it had infinite loop in the app drawer though. Plus the stock jellybean icon pack replaces all the icons than what the apex/nova jellybean theme pack replaced, which is nice and the ICS activity animation is nicer than apex's ICS transition, it isn't as noticeable on apex.


Regarding browsers again :p

Strongly recommend everyone to give dolphin a go and to install dolphin jetpack addon, so quick and smooth, it is unbelievable!

I think I will be sticking with this for good instead quick ics browser now! :p

It also has the nice stock android overscroll effect too.

It runs like a separate browser, but it retains settings from the regular dolphin browser - I think it might create like a browser shell to run the add on
 
Dolphin browser with jetpack really is incredibly quick. I don't normally notice differences in browsers, but this is seriously rapid. Only thing is text reflow doesn't seem to work when you zoom in.

Also just went to try and install chrome for android, but it told me it wasn't compatible with my device (gingerbread).
 
You need to root for the Gmail update, sounds nice but would be better if you could change the Gmail widget colour

Is Dolphin Jetpac and add on? It makes out like it's a separate browser in itself?

Pretty much an addon. I thought it was a separate browser as well until I went to launch it, it brought up the message describing what it is and that you need dolphin as the base browser :p :o



And yeah the text reflow seems a bit funny, it works sometimes but other times it doesn't work....
