Do you have ART enabled by any chance? From the comments it seems it's not compatible with ART.
Soldato
yes I have ART enabled. That's progress for you then
Soldato
ART still isn't considered 'ready', it's still in a beta state and it's still recommended to use dalvik as you really aren't getting that much of a boost in anything.
Soldato
Switched back to Dalvik now and it works.
Soldato
there's just no point using ART at the moment. i've been tempted myself just being it's something new, but haven't bothered as everything i've read said you'll not see any benefit.
Soldato
Yeah I will stick to Dalvik until such time as it needs to go ART.
So who's up for a challenge. Not hard me being as thick as pig ****

Hi guys! Two things firstly is there a way on play store to search for a wallpaper? Whenever I try it seems only to give me live wallpapers which I don't want.
Secondly I have the Nova Launcher as you lot all seem to rave about it, is there some instructions that tells me how to use it to its full? I cant seem to see what all the fuss is about.

For wallpaper use an app like these:

These Nova guides may help:

To get the best out of nova you have to pay for all the features. It's well worth it.

Hey guys back on Android after a year of Windows phone and I am looking for a browser that has quick access to bookmarks without having to use the top menu button on most browsers. Ideally I'd like something that can be accessed from the bottom or by swiping in from the side. Only one I've found that does this is the stock HTC one browser but it is a bit hit and miss with the swiping. Any alternatives out there?
Never thought I'd be missing Internet Explorer!

Dolphin browser does this for you. Just swipe from left to right.
Soldato
Nice one thanks, must have tried every other browser but dolphin!
