Do you know if PowerAmp supports AirPlay at all?

Almost sure it doesn't but hopefully it will soon

No.

There's an unofficial API but no devs are using it. Some iOS ones are though.

Just been looking at those but, according to Google, the HD version is not compatible with the Nexus 7, which rather surprised me.

Quickoffice have been taken over by google, so I doubt it'll stay that way for long

How good is Quickoffice? Been using Officesuite Pro and I find it great, especially since it can connect to google drive/skydrive/etc.

Gone back to the sense browser, after clearing the cache of both dolphin and it, the sense browser actually feels a lot more snappy at rendering the pages especially image/GIF intensive pages, it really is just as snappy overall if not more snappy than dolphin with the jetpack addon.

Plus I don't remember seeing this option with the sense browser before , being able to adjust how far you zoom in when you double tap, very handy tweak.

Only wish there were more quick ics controls to use and a few minor UI tweaks.

Going to be even better when the sense V4+/JB update comes

 

[EniGmA1981]

Really?? A stock app that works well??

Must be a fluke lol don't reboot, you'll ruin it!

 

[Nexus18]

Sense stock apps (v4) are actually very good, especially the browser

 

[Locke]

The Touchwiz browser on Gingerbread was one of the fastest out there too. Not all stock apps are bad!

 

[EniGmA1981]

I never even tried the stock browser lol, might give it a go, might surprise me!

[edit]
In ELK4 (4.1.2) the 'stock' browser is Chrome... Keep that lol I'll stick with Dolphin I think

 

[Nexus18]

Yup chrome is crap IMO, boat, dolphin, quick ics etc. are far better!

 

[EniGmA1981]

Boat doesn't like the auto insert space feature on Swype, so that's a non-starter for me

This looks awesome! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=opotech.image3Dlwp

I use chrome mainly because of chrome on our other machines, the bookmarks/history syncs perfectly. Only thing i dont like about it is no history button.

I've found Chrome to be my favourite browser on my Nexus 4! Which is strange, as I found it horrible on the S3.

I just want FMH 2013 now, it's the only game I'm really interested in.
