New Market App (Vending.apk)

Thanks to fracaccia,
He posted below the apk of the new Android Market. Just download and install it with any file manager!
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?31bn3e258jjpj8d
*Make a nandroid backup before installing, so if anything goes wrong you can go back*
What's new:
- A "carousel" user interface that allows users to flip through featured apps.
- New categories for widgets and live wallpapers, as well as more unnamed categories "in the weeks ahead."
- A unified app details page that eliminates the need to interact with tabs.
- Content ratings for applications
- A reduced refund window of only fifteen minutes.

It works on the sgs, tested it. Rename the file to Vending.apk and push it to the /system/app folder.

Dont like the new market. The green **** (yes.) takes half of the screen space on a 800x480 device that's just dumb. Prolly pushed by publishers in the "featured" who pay money to get there or something.
Descriptions are halved because this green stuff takes all the space. comments, same. List, same.

Guys, you can download it from the market I've just done that.

Fun stuff (Google Play Services)

So, I ws playing around in Titanium and came across 'Googe Play Services' app. After a second or two in Google Search,I came upon the APK in the actual market. (Play store) I decided to just see why/what it is doing there. Google already told me what it was.... I was curious.
The fun part was the comments. If you had a few seconds, check out the comments. Add your own..
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms
Sorry if this was mentioned previously. I was genuinely amused.
Sent from my SPH-L710 Thanks Machine.

Could someone please actually tell me what this is?
My phone was not wanting to download or update any apps. I restarted my phone and I got a notification saying I had an app update. I clicked it and it took me to that app in the play store.
I assumed I had gotten a virus or something and was trying to be phished using this app. So I decided not to download it and did a factory reset on my phone.
After that my phone worked fine and it never popped up again. I made sure and installed an anti virus though.

Google Play Services allows applications that aren't directly tied in with Google Play to use Play to purchase in-app upgrades, etc.

So why did it pop up out of nowhere? Is it because I had an app installed that needed it?

[Q]Car Home app/launcher

I've had my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 for 2 weeks now. It's stock NOT rooted. I was just looking through the /system/apps and couldn't find a Car Home application or something similar. Is this something that they left out with JB all together? Or is this just a Samsung or T-Mobile bright idea?
I also thought Samsung had Drive Link but the Note 2 doesn't have it.
Any info would be great...
In the mean time I installed Drive Link that I used on my previous device. If anyone is interested in it then I'll post a link.

So i wanted a proper driving app myself, didnt like what the samsung app store had to offer nir did i like what the playstore had, so i used ti separate launchers to get what i needed.
My main, daily phone launcher is nova prime. Set it up as a 7*5 grid and set it up for daily usage.
Used a Samsung tectile in my car mount to launch adw in landscape mode. One window has the weather, calendar and easy access to the phone boom, txts or whatever i needed. The next window is for Google maps, some set locations, or something i made the night before that i can just click and go. The other is the shorcut for the google places icon, which lets me search a coffee shop, or 'pizza' when i click it.
Ill take pics and show u, its the best way to have a proper car "dock" in my opinion

[Q] Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher?

Hello,
Has anyone tried the Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher released for Nexus 5 on their Note 8.0?
"To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. "
If so, is it working ok? how's the performance with the new launcher?
Thanks for your help :good:

I'm currently using the launcher as my daily driver, and aside from a couple bugs (app drawer seems crowded, and the keyboard pops up randomly upon returning to home), it runs rather well. I'm enjoying this psuedo-Kitkat UI!

Could you please post some screenshots? Thanks!

Sorry, I cant. When I try to upload screenshots, it says it has the incorrect JPEG file extension. Can you download the launcher?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium HD app

Wrong section..sorry..

The launcher runs fine. and looks ok,
I have gotten too used to touchwiz to like anything else,
however, this can also be used as an app i.e hitting back button does not close it.In that way it provides most of its functionality on demand and serves good for hands-free operation when needed, though s-voice did that kinda similar too.
App Drawer does not have any menus or settings so nothing much to write home about there, other than it's obviously different.
I have it set up minimally for reading stuff only (news and books) and here are screen shots.
