[Q] Can anyone suggest a good desk home app?

Hi:
I finally got a nice eBay dock for the Desire Z, which fits well as long as I take the case off...
Now I'm looking for a home/dock app that will display the time, weather, news in a full-screen app. I downloaded the Samsung Desk Home app, but it doesn't want to install.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
well alarm clock plus gives you the option of adding any widget you want plus access to your music pictures and alarms and for me it automatically opens when i dock my phone
Sounds like you want HTC sense?

[Q] Navigation software in Car Dock mode

Hi all,
I'm an happy owner of a Desire HD smartphone with "Android revolution HD 6.1.0" ROM loaded.
When I drive, Car dock mode is very usefull and user friendly but when I need to run a Nav software I don't use the one gived by default because I don't like it.
There's a way to write a mod that give the possibility tapping the nav button in Car dock mode, to choose with different nav software?
Thanks...
Edit: I'm talking about the custom one.. Please do not tell me to download other Car dock app (I already know that there are several). I like this one and I only would like to know if something can be done. That's it!

Nobody knows how to???

[Request] Drag up navigation bar for music controls

So while I was longboarding on this beautiful day and listening to music an idea can to mind. What if you could grab the navigation bar and drag it up to reveal the album art of the song your currently listening to along with a bar to drag around and skip thought the song and then regular music controls play, pause, skip. I imagine it to be dragged up about half the screen or the size of the stock keyboard. When dragged up the keys would disappear leaving a small arrow at the top letting you know drag back down to get them back and all the controls there. It sounds complicated and I'm not sure if it would even be possible but let's be honest, how cool would this be?

Yes, either dragged or even a scrollable nav bar (left or right) for music controls would be really neat.
If we could hold in the home to activate this, it'd be cool since it has no true function for when its held in anyway.

More things with the navigation bar would be welcomed. I always thought that it had such great potential for customization when the Galaxy Nexus was announced. With several months into development and not much in the way of navbar changes (yes, I know we can change the color, and add a menu button), I'm beginning to think that it's hard coded to be limited. Just a guess though.
Damn, that would be amazing. Hopefully a dev will make this happen

Wouldnt it be amazing if Google made it happen themselves! they seem so lazy to me, so half a job. I think they are really wasting an opportunity with ICS.
Lucky for us we dont mind playing about with mods and lucky for us there are very clever devs on this site that can make things happen.

Oh, and +1 for longboarding!
In the tablet version, the status bar has music controls... and I assume it does in the status bar of the phone version if I remember correctly.
But I do like the idea of a quick menu or the option of dragging up.
I don't like the idea of sliding left to right though, I don't like that option in launchers either. Just a hidden "folder"/area for toggles/etc.
You'd probably like the "Tablet" version of ICS on your Nexus. It throws the status bar and nav controls on 1 bar at the bottom. Works pretty well actually.
This would be so insane - I wil look into it.
It would be even better if swiping up from the navbar would bring up power controls and music player controls meaning they'd always be available since statusbar is hidden in some apps.

Is there a Landscape - Horizontal desktop docking station

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has seen or heard of a horizontal/landscape docking station / stand for the HTC One. All I see is the portrait one, but I use my phone as an alarm clock as well, and it would be really cool if the alarm app would automatically switch on when it senses it's in a landscape holder of some type. My Original Google Droid had such a holder, and my wife's Sony Xperia Play (don't laugh) also had this accessory.
Alarm clock apps are supposed to be viewed in landscape mode. I have searched on the web, and I don't even see references to even a future product. I thought maybe someone on this forum might have some inside info, unless I overlooked something.
Thanks again for any replies.
Alberto
Just picked up a Otterbox Defender and the belt clip rotates and snaps open to hold your phone in a landscape layout.
The problem is that Sense 5.0 doesn't come with a desktop clock mode like you get in stock Android. HTC doesn't make a desktop dock for the phone, so nothing happens when you plug it into a power source.
I just use a portrait dock and have Tasker launch a desk clock app.

Through HTC Media Link HD there is a horizontal Sense mode so there is probably a way to force this through some tweaks i suppose.
Maybe Trickdroid has that function in the Tweaks app or maybe ViperOne. Haven't tried it though only with Media link HD.
Can't test it myself currently cause i'm at a GPe rom.
Or put the phone in Car mode

Question Keep Nav Bar On?

Just picked up a Galaxy Z Fold 3 for a decent price!
Is there a way to keep the Nav Bar always on as with certain apps it drives me crazy when is disappears as when I swipe up to view the Nav Bar it doesn't always show up or clicks something else in the app etc! I would prefer it to always be on. Thanks

There certainly is. Search for navigation bar in the settings.
I never use gestures because they are misinterpreted by apps way too often. We have oodles of screen real estate on this bad boy, too.
Edit: using Good Lock (from the Samsung store) you can seriously customise that navigation bar as well.

Sorry I know that. I already have the Nav Bar on. But what I'm hoping for is to leave it on so when an app like Amazon music is open it doesn't go into full screen so what I'm hoping for is to keep Nav Bar always there. Hope fully

Ah, I see.
Maybe prevent the app in question from employing fullscreen mode in Labs?

Doesn't seem to work
Also looking for a solution to this. There are no app settings that force the navigation bar to be always on, and some apps could greatly benefit from it.
I've been looking for a solution for one year, I finally found this blog post https://mobilepains.com/how-to-remove-full-screen-mode-on-android/ that recommended installing a third-party Navigation bar app. That did the job.
