Hey,

I've been looking around and I can't find a good list of useful tablet optimized apps. Since Play Store only has a "Staff Choices for Tables" and not a real section, I think a list of apps ala Games list for Nexus 7 is appropriate.

Optimized Tablet Apps

-Dropbox

-Evernote

-Firefox

-Friendcaster

-Kingsoft Office

-IMDB

-IM+

-Movies By Flixster

-Pulse

-Photoshop Touch (side load)

-Score Mobile

-Skitch

-TED

-Write

----Most Gapps:

-Calendar

-Chrome (however, no hiding the navbar/fullscreen)

-Currents

-Drive

-Earth

-Email

-Google+

-Gmail

-Maps

-Play Store

-Youtube

Not Optimized, but work well

-Adobe Reader

-BBC News

-Cloud SMS

-ES File Explorer

-Flipboard

-HandyCalc

-Medscape

-MxPlayer

-SketchBookX

-Sky Map

-Swype Beta (side load)

If anybody have some good apps, please share :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] y2whisper:
score mobile for tablet is pretty solid
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Patroy:
In play store is app called "tablet market" and there is list of all tablet apps

Nexus 7 Tapatalk
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] rmm200:
I think I disagree with the definition of tablet optimized. You seem to be equating it to landscape mode.

If the screen layout is different on a large screen device, and not just scaled up, it is optimized for tablets.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] AFAinHD:
the play store has a section called optimised for tablets, and what would you know, it has the exact same apps that you listed. if your going to post a thread like this it might be best if you do research by checking apps instead of just copying the list google already made.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sizanx:
Every app I have listed I use, well Firefox and Chrome I don't use anymore because imo AOSP is better.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sizanx:
Didn't notice that, thanks for the tip.

You're right.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] DZonikg:
Photoshop touch but everybody allready nows that.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] akakitsu:
Can you explain where you found that? I've found a tab "for tablets" but those are "staff picks for tablets", not "optimized for tablets".
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] styckx:
Who cares if it's somewhere buried in the play store? I for one NEVER read the front page of the play store. 99% of my apps and games are from reading recommendations from websites or forums like this.

Continue the list, it's a great idea...
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] AFAinHD:
You guys really don't have this on the front page of your play store?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] akakitsu:
That spotlight thing is only for US users I believe. I don't have it here in Holland.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] sizanx:
I don't have it Denmark neither.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] AFAinHD:
Damn, that really sucks. Well you guys should really get pulse. It is amazingly optimised for tablets, and I haven't been bored since I downloaded it.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] icytrey:
It's not on the front page. If you have to hit the "apps" category first
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Ryano89:
I don't see an app called“Photoshop touch" am I searching for the wrong thing?

+1 for pulse and Evernote

Also:

Write

Cloud sms(brand new and on its way to becoming one of my favorites)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
"Adobe PS Touch" Not worth $10 IMO. I use Canvas for small stuff, my PC if I want to get serious.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Deleted member 4526420:
Dropbox? I might have to disagree on you for that.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Dorkington:
The various Tablet sections on the Play store (in app and online) have a relatively limited list of apps.

I, for one, appreciate these lists when they are posted; as sometimes they provide some hidden gems I wouldn't otherwise know about. :)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] khaytsus:
It is? Looks like the exact same Pulse I see on my phone, just.. Just slightly more space from screen resolution differences.

Must have to have a custom ROM with tablet UI or the DPI turned down, stock N7 the app looks exactly like the phone version, no side view of the story etc.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] DZonikg:
Best app i have is XBMC player..its totally the same like windows version which is by far best media player for pc.

I thing everyone who have PC should have this app because you can play on tablet all your movies,music,pictures that you have on PC in beautiful way..and this amassing app is FREE and you can find it on XDA site here ( there is nou on play store)
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] helloterence:
Solid Explorer is a great file explorer that is optimized for tablets.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] tcat007:
I just tried X-plore after using Solid Explorer for a while. I like button and bookmark access, and speed better. Well laid out for tablet. Much smaller file size too.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] DZonikg:
For me x-plore is best by far
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] BrianDigital:
Reddit is fun had a tablet layout
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] lbrfabio:
I made this long list: http://goo.gl/4GFp2 of ICS and ICS+Tablet Optimized apps

For ICS I mean that are following android design guidelines. There a few not 100% ICS but still looks good.

Black or Blue = ICS Optimized

Red = ICS+Tablet Optimized

I went to bed normal. Plugged in my s3 into the charger . My battery was like at 4%. I leave the phone on because I use it as an alarm clock. I woke up at 6am and NY phone is really really hot I have no idea why? Why would this be? So I turn it off and let it cool down. Mean the screen was off and everything. Could my charger be bad or? It was so hot you couldn't touch the screen for long.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mirrin:
well do you have a custom rom on it does it have fast charge is it on? kernel? oc? voltage tweak?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thrgk:
clean rom 3.0, no overclock of any kind, no fastcharge
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Anonamoose:
We're going to need more info then that I am afraid to figure out what happened (if we can at all )

You flashed Clean Rom... did you

Use a custom kernel?

Flash the new firmware for the new update?

Flash the new radio for the update?

Any other things you flashed with the rom?

Any apps that have root permission?

I don't think it could be a bad charger .... key words don't think...

If it's not software related and it happens again it could be a bad cell in the battery perhaps and it's still trying to charge to capacity .... the more info you give us the more we can try and trouble shoot it.

Thank You for messaging XDA Anonamooose Tech support .....LOL

Anyone else have some insight?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thrgk:
Actually this happened before on my gnex . Thought the battery was bad but it can't be this battery also. What's weird was it charged it to 15% instead of 100% its like all the power after 15% was just heating it up instead of charging? Or could the battery be bad because I. Plugged it in again and it charged 33% in like 55minutes a 4400mah anker battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thrgk:
Airplane mode was also on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
its probably because your using a third party battery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thrgk:
Should I use siedio?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] leyvatron:
So it really wasnt on fire, it was just really hot. :rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
i would just use the stock battery, its pretty darn good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hopesrequiem:
I almost always get 24 hours on stock battery. You people are crazy for needin to switch batteries
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Shibby87:
You may have also had hot spotting on, this has happened to me bfor, leaving hot spotting on for any long period of time can have the same effect.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ihavenewnike:
Happened to me. It was under my pillow. Had to put in freezer for 4 minutes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Blue6IX:
Taking a hot expanded object and exposing it to quick contraction is how you pop solders and crack circuit boards.Exposing to sudden heat is not as bad as sudden cold. Plastic shrinks at a different rate then metal, and so on.

You got lucky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] agolfingcigar:
I have the chinese variant of the standard battery and it's not nearly as good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:

Yeah I left mine under my pillow while charging. Thought I was gonna burn my hand xD don't worry though because the gs3 can take a LOT of heat to the point of being too hot to toutch.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
I here so many people saying their phone gets hot...

My phone doesn't even get warm. Even when I'm charging it, it's always the same. Like room temperature.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Flashfir:
Happened to me when running Sleep As Android (which turns on airplane mode), charging overnight, AND putting it between my mattress topper and mattress. When I woke up I turned it off immediately took off the back cover and let it cool off because I was afraid it would be too hot.

Don't worry, shouldn't be a problem as long as you keep an eye on those factors.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slufa111:
My phone never approaches 33c via its temp gauge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mpetruzz:
So I'm a crack flasher and rely on TB often. I bought Wild Blood which is a pretty large game and took a while to backup at first.

I went to back it up last night and it just hung up. I cleared cache and data and still got hung up. Its backing up everything else and I'm not sure what else to do.

It normally took about 30 secs to a minute to backup but now it hangs.

Hello

I have a big problem with my Razr, my usb connector of my razr is broken.

I can not charge it anymore, it is not caused by usb cable because I tried with differents.

Someone know if we can buy new usb connector and replace it ?

Thanks you.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MasterGadgets:
Is the connector on the phone "physically" broken, or does it just not charge?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nespresso33:
It just doesn't charge.

But the connector is damaged for sure.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] M.Barakat:
Just as a temp solution you Cern use battery charges (connecting their probes directly to the bat. + -)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] nespresso33:
I tried to do that yesterday but it didnt work.

I cut an usb cable and I put the red and black wires only on screw (

I did not have a screwdriver )

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amar__:
Hello again, I really need your help guys.

I installed Slim Bean 4.1.1 version(3.0.31 Semaphore) few months ago, and after I had some problems last week, so I decided to update it, but it all went wrong. Installation of 2.7 version didn't go well, first I had problems mounting system in recovery mode, and after few restartsmy phone doesn't want to boot at all. When I turn it on, it just shows Samsung logo and that's it. I can't access recovery mode also, but download mode is still available and I can enter it. Question is, what should I do now?

I know I could flash new ROM with Odin, but I don't know how to do it, and I don't know which ROM should I flash. Can anyone please explain this to me, I would be really grateful?

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
just install the valye pack using odin and then root it... goodgle it will get lots of links....if you are not able find anyone let me know I will it to you..

if you plan to install JB then make sure you glash it three times as there is a change in the partition layout...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amar__:
Thank you, will try it in a few minutes, download link is really slow.

I found this:

http://techdraginfo.blogspot.com/2012/06/install-new-android-236-xxjw4-value.html

Is it ok?

If I install this, and if this firmware gives me no problem, what do you think about idea that I just stick to it, and not do anything else? I don't have to root it anymore, right?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
if you want to stick then no need to root it....
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amar__:
Now I can't connect with Odin, it doesn't recognise my device at all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erpurohit:
try installing usb driver....and uninstall kies
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amar__:
I did all that, but I still cannot connect it. I think it's down to drivers, I can't install them correctly, and I tried couple of different ones.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mseif:
I have a Galaxy SII , unrooted

I heard there is a way to make the menu/back led lights alert for email,messages and missed calls>

How is that possible ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minidou-77:
Search for BLN

You have to use a compatible kernel such as Dorimanx or Siyah

;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mseif:
Thank you. I have downloaded and installed many roms for the Samsung Omnia in the pat, also for BB, but not for this SII.

Is this rooting ? Is it dangerous ? can I revert back if something wrong happened ? From where and how do I get and install this kernel ?

Thanks again
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
No

Yes, by flashing stock firmware

http://d-h.st/rY9

Flash via PC Odin and then use Triangle Away app.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mseif:
Thank you very much and sorry to bather you again.

I downloaded the kernel .tar extension which is less than 7 MB. Now do I unzip and copy it to my phone with the triangle away and start the triangle away there ? Is that it ?

The unzipped file is called zImage and witth no extension , is that correct ?

Do I need to backup my data on the phone ? If I needed to revert back, how do I remove the that kernel and from where do I get the original one?

My Os is ICS 4.0.3.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
Do not unpack .tar file. You need to flash .tar via Odin in your PC.

Triangle Away is needed after flashing a kernel to remove triangle and reset custom binary counter.

There is no need to backup your data. Nothing bad shouldn't happen.

[Android Apps and Games] TintoTa:
Good app, thank you!

Will it be possible to add the whole album to playlist?

And would be good to add folders to YouTube tab )
[Android Apps and Games] Arkun:
thank you!

Yes, those functionalities are in the backlog )
[Android Apps and Games] Piny12:
How is this compared to iMediaShare?
[Android Apps and Games] EP2008:
Any support for Apple tv?
[Android Apps and Games] Arkun:
That could be a long list :D

First of all I’m not the experienced IMS user, tried it several times.

-	ArkMC is DLNA certified.

-	ArkMC publish itself as a renderer and can get incoming playbacks, my old Xoom connected by HDMI to TV and I can send streams for playback from my Nexus 4

-	ArkMC available in Windows Media Player “PlayTo” list

-	IMS integrated with FB and Picasa, and its nice feature. Hope ArkMC will be integrated as well (if we get requests from end-users)

-	When I tried to share 1 photo by IMS it shares ALL my photos, what if I don’t want to share all pictures?

-	ArkMC doesn’t share DCIM by default, and you can setup in settings which folders should be shared.

-	Also I didn’t find how I can add new video channel in IMS, maybe I did something wrong.

-	In ArkMC you get the latest content form YouTube, and can add/delete channels.

-	Also I didn’t find how to create playlists in IMS.

-	Sometimes it stuck on “starting service…” on my Xoom.

-	As for me ArkMC starts faster.

- ArkMC can stream few-several HD streams simultaneously

- ArkMC supports different network interfaces, and it's possible to select which one to use. for instance for Android box make sense to use Ethernet for streaming.

In any case iMediaShare is nice app, with good usability )
[Android Apps and Games] MMFreax:
Is support coming?
[Android Apps and Games] Arkun:
iOS version of ArkMC supports AirPlay.
[Android Apps and Games] letrouble:
iOS

For Apple owners. Updated iOS version is comming soon. The main difference - updated design to look good on Retinas displays.
[Android Apps and Games] Teamen:
Free or full?

Hello.

I wanted to know why would I want to buy paid version of ArkMC instead of free one? What are the differences?
[Android Apps and Games] Arkun:
Hi Teamen!

In paid version you will be able to access all content on Media Server from external Media Players and Controllers, you will be able to approach all media items instead of initial 5 on local/external servers.
[Android Apps and Games] letrouble:
New version is coming soon

Hello, dear Android users!

New version of ArkMC is coming soon.

XBox support feature is fixed. Now you can send media files from ArkMC to XBox!

Application would be updated soon on Play Google.
[Android Apps and Games] Teamen:
thank

Thanks for response. At first I've tried free version, and then I moved to paid one. It works fine. Interface is a bit complicated, but the functionality is really wide.
[Android Apps and Games] ebroker:
Windows Renderer?

Hi - Solid app! Just purchased the pay ver from the Google Play store (running Android 4.1.1), but need a client/renderer solution for Windows!

ArkMC can play to and play from WMP on my windows 7 PC, but can only see and play from an older Win Vista Home Media Center PC. Are there any players/renderers that work prior to Win7? I've tried Media Monkey, XMBC and Foobar 2000 with the upnp plug in. ArkMC will see the Foobar2000 renderer but it appears to be an audio only solution at the moment - no pictures or video.

I'm mainly trying to push video (mp4) from the phone to the media center PC. Any thoughts?
[Android Apps and Games] letrouble:
Hello, ebroker.

Foobar2000 is really good working application, but it is really just audio player.

XBMC as server and as renderer should work good with ArkMC application. Have you tried it?

I have tried it with MP4 files - it works fine.
[Android Apps and Games] daviq:
Hi letrouble!

This really looks like a promising app! Nice work! :) One question though. I'm looking for a way to stream Google Play Music, and I would like to know if ArkMC does this somehow, or if it's something you're working on?

I'm looking to do either, or both of these:

Number 1: Streaming Google Play Music from my phone to my DLNA device

Number 2: Streaming Google Play Music from my laptop to ArcMC on my phone

Can it be done? I've been searching for ages to find a way of doing this. No luck. :(

Thanks. :)
[Android Apps and Games] ebroker:
Doh!? Now I have it figured out... not sure why settings in XBMC didnt take the first time but now ArkMC sees the player! Awesome...

But One more question... any add ins or ways to get Thumbnails from ArkMC? All camera pictures and videos get pretty generic names, so hard to tell what to select when looking through the Ark server list...
[Android Apps and Games] letrouble:
Hello. Thank you for the compliments! :)

The last thing that we did - was adding YouTube support. And we are planning to extend the functionality of ArkMC.

But regarding Google Play Music

If it is about online music streaming we would add this to the list of possible functions.

It is about application Google play music. You can set the folder with stored by this application music as share folder, and share media.
[Android Apps and Games] letrouble:
Talking about XBMC - I also have some troubles. I installed XBMC - but could not see it as server and as renderer. I was reading forums, looking for solution. But, the reason was simple - firewall!

After changing the firewall settings - everything started to work immediately!

Thumbnails is the server functionality. Thank for stating the importance of this feature. We will add this in the one of the following releases.
