[Q] CM9 Problems

I have 4 problems with CM9 alpha 4.
1.I can't move/organize any of my apps around in the app drawer.
2.I can't setup up the face unlock, I tried but it just doesn't work
3. Every time I download a new app it makes a shortcut on the home screen.
4.The clock app always force closes.

1. Get a different launcher, google nova launcher I think it has that ability.
2. You need to be in a clear place with plenty of light for facelock to configure and needs to be there for a good amount of time.
3. Go into the market go into settings and uncheck auto add widgets.

Thank you so much, but I already tested Nova Launcher, and I still cant edit my apps in the drawer.

It also helps to read the CM9 threads like the Tip Sharing thread in General if you don't want to wade through all the posts in the Development thread. The market tip was one of the first ones posted.

golauncher ex will allow you to organize and even hide apps. it will use a little more battery to also have it running, but its worth it IMO

I used to use it, but on cm9 it just "takes away" the feeling of having ICS.

Is anyone else having problems sending MMS I use Hancent...but none of my pictures ever go through?

My MMS works fine, even over wifi, with the stock application and with handcent.

When I first flashed this rom I was having the same problem with mms. I only could send them with the wifi turned off but for some reason it's working fine now.

What face unlock? Sounds nice! What's the name for the app?

Any of you have Exchange email sync issues? Mine syncs for a day then stops and I get "Connection Errors"

SIII doesnt display a lot of stuff my Note did?

My S3 (stock rom/everything) is so much better than my note in every way but one.... (minus the screen size for movies)
On my note I could go to desktop websites and view movies/open emails and all of the pictures would be there... (yes, I select display all images)
On my S3... it says I am missing a plug in, but the plug in isnt compatible for my phone or makes no difference, I cannot remember...
I am sure this is a simple fix, but I dont want to root my phone or any business like that.
Sorry for another Newb question. And I appreciate the help. Its annoying.

Get adobe flash. It works with the Brower app that comes with the phone. Doesn't with with chrome

bbc iplayer and tvcatchup apps (uk)

Any idea why its telling me these aren't compatible with my device? Is it just a case of waiting till they update them to work with 4.2?
Thanks and sorry if not in correct forum!

The dev probably hasn't listed the N4 as a compatible device yet.
Edit...I've sent you a pm.

You need to side load the apk. I don't want to be distributing apks in an open forum for obvious reasons.

+1 - I restored a backup (from my S3) of BBC Iplayer and BBC Media Player and they work fine on my Nexus 4. Only issue is video is not 100% full screen as the soft keys do not go away when playing video. I expect this will be fixed when the app actually supports the Nexus 4. It also seemed to have issues resizing properly when I turned phone from portrait to landscape, so I had to go back to iplayer start, put phone in landscape and then start video.

ASUS Supernote 3.1.0 from PadFone 2

This is the supernote 3.1 from Asus PadFone 2
I was able to get this app working on our phone.
I only tested on my wife's and my nexus 4. But I would imagine that it also works on other Jellybean devices as well.

Works great, thanks.

Seems to work great. Just missing page navigation buttons when in a notepad. Works great on my Xoom too running 4.0.4. Syncs well between the two. An ability to add remember needs would make this my top notepad/to do list but will have to stick with catch (functions nowhere near the same but can set reminders).
This is very much like the snote app on s3 and note, but with better sync.

Awesome app! I've only made a couple notes but it seems to be working flawlessly. Thanks!

I do not recall Supernote have any widget. But if it does, I will look into getting it port as well.

Use Density Changer change the DPI from 320 (stock) to 300 and reboot. You will see the soft keys from vertical too.

Handwriting to text conversion
Hi, my friend has this on his Padfone 2. I downloaded this as well. We see that this is the same version 3.1.0.9.0.
However, everything is the same except for one feature. He has this button just left of the Trashcan button, that is for conversion of handwriting to text. It works pretty well. In the Settings menu, he has one extra option to select what language for 'Recognition Language', referring to the handwriting feature.
Do you see this option? I'm thinking the app knows that it's not being used on an Asus and disables this? I'm using Samsung Galaxy S3.
Thanks!

I notice the handwriting recognition is missing as well. I am currently working to get that working our phone. Will post an update once I am able to get that working.

I noticed this, too. It's a great app.
Thanks for your efforts.

Here's hoping this solves my need for a Penultimate replacement on Android so I feel more comfortable ditching my iPad.

[FREE - YMMV] Next launcher 3d - free $16 app

Do the following:
- Download the next launcher 3d LITE version from play store
- Go to Next Launcher preferences
- Scroll all the way down to About Full Version
- Click on Activate
- Enter nextlauncher3d in account, appoftheday in code
- Done!
Some have reported that it is still activating after the original post date.
Don't forget to hit thanks.

I did it and it works perfectly.

That launcher is horrible. But I guess for the sake of free - might as well.

Seemed to work for me as well, says it activated. Thanks!

Just tried it. Got it Activated . Lol tbh its seems mediocre. Oh well its free. Thanks for the post.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

Activated it but it still says lite version... Hope we can get updates.
Anyway thanks, I think its nice launcher.

As asked before, is this a trial or something? Why is it free today? Does the dev know about this, or is this some loophole bug that was found? Kinda seems suspicious...
EDIT: Didn't read the whole post I guess. The code is "appoftheday" so that seems a little less suspicious lol.

It won't show purchased on Google play. You have to do a backup of the apk.
