I see that Plex paid is now free for a bit on the forest.

Has anyone here used DU Speed Booster??

My N5 is getting a bit clogged up so thought I'd give it a go but I'm a bit wary of just letting it delete the cache's for various apps that I'd like to keep - for example I've got a few games on there where I'd like to keep my progress etc and they seem to be listed under "System Cache" in the app and can't be "deselected" individually!?!?

I'm assuming if I just arbitrarily delete this "System Cache" then I'll lose any progress etc??

 

[rhysduck]

Why not just uninstall each app and only clear the cache on the apps you want?

It's beautiful.

It's been APK central lately, love all the updates

 

[Terrier_Jimlad]

Agreed, like the new/updated layout

New Gmail is brilliant, Exchange support is perfect and it's actually easily as functional as the Sony email client.

Removed the stock client account now

A sign that android L is right around the corner for us nexus owners!

Are you not using Googles new Inbox app? Very functional of you get the hang of it

 

[mrk]

Nope I don't like it, prefer the Gmail app.

 

[Orcvader]

After the Gmail update I think I prefer this over the new Inbox app. Inbox is nice, but I don't feel it matches how I use emails.

So many material style Google apps... come on Google... my N10 is waiting .

 

[maddness]

this gmail 5.0 is awesome

finally can get rid of the system hogging outlook app (that may I add 'clean master' does keeps on complaining about)

 

[unwashed potato!]

[Thomss]

Nope it's in the pull down menu.

 

[unwashed potato!]

You missed one here. Reply should have been "Fairly sure the answer is no"

He replies "Yes?" and hilarity ensues...

never bothered me, as you only really need to know when your battery is below say 20%, then it's red.

if i'm really desperate to know how many % i went down playing 10 mins of a game, i'd look in quicksettings.
