It does say though:


Made a couple of scribblenauts icons for anyone using minimal miui icons:

But Note II is a phablet, should be compatible!

I use Tag&Rename to hard code the album art into the ID3 tags of the file. I find this much easier.

I spent 3 hours last night going through every album and embedding covers into the tags using Mp3Tag which seemed to do the job just fine. Now to just keep on top of it :)

Only 3 hours?!?... How much music you got?? My 17,650 files took me the best part of a week to tag and check using MP3Tag, before uploading :confused:

It's nice having access to my whole 110Gb of music via Google Play Music :D :cool:

16GB in total but that's a very selective lot built up over years. I don't keep albums that only have a couple of songs I listen to.
 
Scribblenauts is fun though not sure how many levels there will eventually be, I'm about half way through the included levels and there is at least one more level pack I can buy which is 69p but includes all future level packs.

Seems like levels would be extremely easy to make tbh...

Ah'haa... I See!, I pretty much listen to my entire collection on a 'Random Mix' (Nexus 4, Nexus 7 on Wi-Fi or any PC with Web Access).

Though I've a selective collection filling a 32Gb USB stick ready for my New car (Skoda Flabia Greenline II Estate) when I get it in a few weeks! Again gonna stick it on 'Random' on my hour n half commute to and from London each day...

Once I'm out of my current 500Mb/month Vodaclone contract and on a 3 or GiffGaff Unlimited I might then get the Micro USB cable for my car and use my Phone/Google Play on my commute!! :D
 
Right so falcon pro is dead now :/ API limit reached and nothing the dev can do.

What to replace it with? I loved how falcon looked and the interface so as close as possible would be nice, but free.

Sadly it seems eventually all 3rd party Twitter apps will reach that point as well... This is the main thing stopping me from using one... But the main Twitter app is so poor :p.
 
Scribblenauts has 5 worlds with 10 levels apiece but levels are pretty easy the 69p world pass unlocks another 7 worlds and I gather more when they release them. Not bad I guess for less than two quid.

Fun just messing about giving god golden armor, giant golden wings and a plasma gun and a guy fawkes mask:

I've tried a few 3rd party apps and they all seem very busy and hectic, I have always gone back to the default app as it feels clear and uncluttered to me
 
The only twitter app that is worth a spit is Tweetcaster!!

Now enough of the Twitter apps talk, it's pointless. After Tweetcaster, there ARE no other Twitter apps!!

;)
 
Surely that should read "After the default Twitter app, what on the earth is the point of any other twitter app for me.....
I read my feed, click links, gg."

It suits you, covers all your needs, that's nice.
 
I have used others as well and could not see what they did better in general as the default official app Dodd everything add expected?

If it suits me it should suit all of you. The world revolves around me. ;)
No but in all honesty, I don't know or understand what the default app fails to offer.
It's kinda like, what would any 3rd party Youtube or Gmail app do that the default app doesn't do better?

Does the default Twitter app save your position in your newsfeed when it does background updates, or does it jump to the the newest tweet? Because that annoys me. A lot.
 
I use it to monitor my children's tweeting, whilst I use Twitter I don't like it that much after that initial wow stage. Falcon pro has a nice tracking feature which makes following specific people even if you are not a follower easy. I also prefer its presentation to the default and I only sync when I go into the app.
 
I use falcon pro which IMO is the best one. I like the layout and being able to have multiple accounts is pretty cool.

I only tried tweetcaster on iOS but I didn't like it.

I'm rooted now. Are there any apps I should check out that makes use of it?
