Direct Download Link: http://bit.ly/luHFGO
Get it before MS forces it to be taken down..
isn't this the alpha that came out ages ago?
Nope.. this was released two days ago.. 20th May.. Lots of fixes.. Bringing it to the xda community..
This. Is. Beautiful.
I love how it grabs a picture of the artist from Last.FM and use it as a background. Eye candy it might be, but damn fine it is.
As expected of an alpha release, there are quite a few bugs, and it seems to have problem playing VB mp3 files, but it definitely has potential.
Nice. Works for me. This has potential.

WOW. Beautiful! Too bad it doesn't have equalizer and stuff anywhere, but i might not have looked properly.
Yeah.. its just something else! looks amazing.. definitely a head turner compared to the stock player
Thanks, it's really nice.
welcome.. do click my thanx button if you found it useful.. thanx
Already seen it ln engadget. A bit lacking on features, but for an alpha it works amazing. I have had almost no fc, and it looks amazing.
Waiting in anticipation for future updates

Yes, this is now my preferred music player, having loaded version 3. Very polished and smooth even at this early stage.
However, found the genre section picking up odd or non existent (as far as I was concerned) labels. Tried various methods to resolve it, but the only thing that has worked is using 'video & genre cleaner' app from the market and totally sorted out the genre labels...just in case anyone else comes across this.
As a side note did anyone get a pop up on installation about this stopping in early July and informing that it should then be available on the market?
Having loaded & unloaded it initially to try to sort out the genre issue, it hasn't come up again during install.
Alpha 3 : http://launcherpro.com/music/

I like this project it runs like a charm. I love the feature that it shows the picture from the artist.
I'm sure there's a couple other threads for this, but I thought one in the AT100/ Thrive section would be neat.
I will also keep adding to this original post.

There's many games as well such as the THD game's like Fruit Ninja THD, and games that look good on the big screen like Radiant. Also launcher's like LauncherPro are really neat on phones but just aren't that smooth or fast scrolling wise for tablets.
Hope these apps may make your experience with the Thrive a little more useful, they have for me since we've been getting quite honestly poor support here in Aus.
Btw I'm just looking at app's that aren't for rooted users since I know it's quite new on the Thrive/AT100 and I personally myself don't plan on rooting.

Use VTL Launcher at your own risk. If you check the WEB page, it says it is not compatible with Honeycomb. Some individuals on Toshiba Thrive Forum has reported ending up in a boot loop after installing this. Not all have had this issue. That is why I am saying to use this at you own risk.

Thanks for the info, will add to opening.
Someone on TF posted this site: http://tablified.com/
Ran across the beta of BeyondPod on there...might have to invest in this one.
I have been using it for some time on my Thrive. It did however, cause a boot loop when I set it as the default launcher. Otherwise (knock on wood), it is working fine.

I haven't had any issues with VTL myself, guess I'm just lucky. Btw, does anyone else have a home replacement that is smooth and just as functional on a tab?
I'm using TINYPLAYER for my mp3's.
Its a pure player.
No Art work or search controls. Shows music by file name from folder you set. I actually like it like that. Has shuffle repeat and random. Also another cool feature is font re-size.
But one problem with it don't know if other are having same problem. When using the app and you initiate the g sensor that would reorient the screen the player give error about cant find the SD card. I play music when I drive so this really erks me. Bumps are fine but soon as I turn I get the error. I store my music on the SD card about 10 gigs worth.
where can i get the penpower chinese writing pad that works with thrive??
My Spider Solitaire should work without problems on Thrive: https://market.android.com/details?id=magory.solitairespiderhd. It is designed for tablet screens (doesn't work on phones). I'm working on some improvements now (expect them next week). Am also working on another, more advanced game. Writing for Android is fun.

hey all, the not sure why it hasn't been said yet but adw ex works like it was made for the thrive. Very stylish seen transitions and I can't explain how fast it is (you need to try it yourself) it also allows you to use more of the screen unlike the stock. All widgets and are resizable, you can create as many or as little screens (I prefer to have received rather than the standard 5)

Yeah, I haven't had any problems with the other one but I'm using ADW ex just 'cause it's smoother. But what bugs me is the little icon on the top left. My homescreen is generally black and white themed and the icon just sticks out so much lol.

I have a different tablet, but wanted to say I totally agree! You can disable it with the hide/show action bar widget, however it comes back with a 90° rotation (not 180). I've written anderweb, so hopefully this gets changed.

I think I'l stop updating this list and there's already multiple websites that have app lists for tablets. Btw, the market link doesn't seem to be working for me.
I stumbled across this video and thought I'd share it. I see the person doing the comparison is making use of the the quick controls functionality of the browser. Personally, I feel the quick controls just might be what sets this browser apart from the rest and quite possibly makes this the best mobile browser out.
For those who aren't familiar with what quick controls are, he breaks it down around 5:45.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm3dCbxjeqw&feature=player_embedded
Note: To enable quick controls, go in your browser settings, and look under the "labs" section and you'll see it there.
Awesome! great feature, thanks for the heads up

Yeah I thought he did a pretty decent job of going through the browser.
I was thrilled when I put the ICS rom on my Nexus S and saw the browser quick controls. lol Ever since I used the browser on the Xoom tablet when it first came out and tried out the quick controls I was trying to find a way to bring it to my phone. Obviously, I quickly found out that wouldn't be possible. So from that point forward I've been wanting the quick controls feature. Couple the quick controls feature with the browser speed and you've got IMO the best mobile browser out there. I can't wait to try it on my GNex (when handtec eventually ships it....).

It's been a Labs feature since Honeycomb and still is which says to me it's buggy and unstable. I used on my Xoom and it made my browser flaky at times. Ics might be more stable but just keep an eye on it. If it was perfectly fine it'd just be a regular setting and not still under labs.

I've never had that feature give me any trouble at all. It seems our experiences differ here. How frequently did it give you problems? Also is there anyone with a GNex now, that is using this feature? How is it operating for you?
What kind of things can you do with quick controls? I watched the video this morning, but only remember him using it to switch tabs.

Basically lets you 1) switch tabs 2) pull up the address bar 3) access the settings menu.
The plus is they're quickly accessible when compared to the normal address bar/menus, and it lets the address bar be hidden 99% of the time to give you a larger view of the page.
I've been using it since my order arrived Saturday. Nothing out of the ordinary to report. I got spoiled to this on my Transformer and could never go back.
I will say the expanded version on the tablet with the close tab, back/forward, refresh, etc. is superior but for the screen size this version is 99% as good.
Found out about this while trying to set up Chrome Sync, and it's effing awesome. Not going back.
I just don't get it - the only time my stock Nexus launcher redraws (relaunches) is after using the browser. I can do a ton of other stuff but whenever I use the browser and load anything remotely heavy (sometimes doesn't have to be) - it has to redraw the launcher.
id personally much rather have back as a choice, but thats just me
I cannot wait for the ICS browser. It may be the second most desirable feature of ICS (first being the improved keyboard).
The one thing I hate about the current Gingerbread browser is the Bookmark. The first Bookmark tab sorts it via most visited sites, except isn't that what the second tab on top is for? It's annoying that the order gets changed in the Bookmark tab. Drives me nuts.
I really look forward to Chrome sync and the quick controls.
Yeah its odd they did this. I don't know why they didn't just use the same quick controls as my Xoom has which are much more useful.

Isn't this feature similar to what the MIUI miren browser does with its controls and the "smart full screen" option?
Don't want to say miren is better than stock, it's pretty buggy actually.
After having used my phone for a full day now, I must say this is the best browser I've used on a phone thus far, and the quick controls just set it apart. This browser is in a class of it's own.
Is there any easier way to remove tab without going to the Tab button then swipe left or right?
I know using Quick Control we can access the loaded tabs ...
so since Quick Controls doesn't have the full options like that are found on Honeycomb tablets...how do you navigate back and forward while using QCs?
Does anyone know of another APP like Swipe Pad. It's a good APP but it lags a lot when i open an APP.

I've loved swipepad but always hated the lag since I had an sgs2 and even when it became faster on my modern phones. This is fast, thanks and I can use both apps.
Although there are a bunch of these, there's nothing quite like SwipePad. I've tried to switch many times and I end up back with SwipePad like an old girlfriend. The only thing is, SwipePad doesn't seem to get updated very much. It took ages for the Lollipop update, and soon after it was done, Marshmallow came along. The context panel no longer works and blacklist also fails to work. It's a tad less responsive to the point that sometimes when you select an app to open, it misses. You have to linger maybe 200 milliseconds. Those things are annoying but even with those annoyances, it's still the best out there by quite a bit. I have two "pads", each with 12 functions. Twenty-four functions is quite enough for me when they are easy to get at and it doesn't require me to switch from Nova Launcher.

I recently updated my tablet from Kitkat to Marshmallow and realize that "Dynamic Pads: SwipePad add-on" doesn't work as Context Panel. From other reviews in Play Store I get feedback that this problem started a long time ago in Lollipop. Context is shown not for active app, but for active Launcher.
I overcome this problem yourself easily because I have rooted device, I moved "SwipePad Dynamic Pads" app from user apps to system apps. Now it works again as it should. Probably some app's permission restriction in LP/MM...
I know this post is old, however I found it with Google Search.
You can give my app a try, I believe it's the closest thing to SwipPad and even taking the idea further to a new level (keep an eye on the coming updates)

By no means am I taking credit for this. I have copied this over from the 9505 with permission from IRONMAN link to original thread
I will be maintaining this thread over here.....
As said per IRONMAN:
Hello, everyone. I have decided to make this Recommend-An-App thread so that YOU can share your favorite apps with everyone in this community.
****BUT THERE IS ONE CONDITION NO SUPER POPULAR APPS****
Don't post apps like PowerAMP and Flipboard and Swiftkey. EVERYONE knows about these apps.
The purpose of this thread is to make everyone aware of new apps which are largely unheard of. Apps which are not so popular. I was too tired of seeing numerous lists full of apps I already knew about.
So everyone, start posting! A brief summary would be appreciated (Unless the name is self-explanatory) as well as a PlayStore link (we all are too lazy to search for ourselves)
I will try to keep this list as up-to-date as possible.
1) Atom Launcher- A great launcher with many options for customization while maintaining a minimalistic look. I personally recommend Typo Black Theme to go along with it.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5kbHRvLmF0b20ubGF1bmNoZXIiXQ..
Typo Black Theme- https://play.google.com/store/apps/...oZXJleC50aGVtZS5OYW11U01vZGVyblR5cG9CbGFjayJd
2) WordWeb - In my opinion, THE best dictionary out there. Why? Because its offline. Doesn't require an internet connection!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...53b3Jkd2Vic29mdHdhcmUuYW5kcm9pZC53b3Jkd2ViIl0.
3) Wallbase - I've tried 'em all and nothing has helped me find better wallpapers than this app. And most of them are full HD.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5jaXRjLndhbGxiYXNlIl0.
4) LyricsPlayer - This app shows a notification on the status bar when you're playing music, clicking on it automatically searches for the lyrics and displays them.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5saW5rLmFuZHJvaWQubHlyaWNzcGxheWVyIl0.
5) Holo Compass - The most minimalistic and cool looking compass around.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsInBsLnN1cml4LmhvbG8uY29tcGFzcyJd
6) Circle Alarm - A holo themed and minimalistic alarm app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50amVhbm5pbi5hbGFybSJd
7) Node- Just a super cool live wallpaper
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zdWZmaWNrLm5vZGUiXQ..
8) Pimp My Music - This is great for fixing up the ID3 tags in your songs and for finding all the right cover art.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImF1LmNvbS5waWNrdXAucG1tIl0.
9) T.E.A.M. Battery Bar - This displays a coloured bar on top of the status bar showing the battery level (remember MIUI?). A must have for me.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5wdnkuYmF0dGVyeWJhciJd
10) Active Lockscreen - I think this is one of the best lockscreens out there.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5jZWxsdGljay5sb2Nrc2NyZWVuIl0.
11) ConvertIt - Another holo themed and minimalistic app, this one is a unit converter.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=42539176
12) Phone Addict - This great little app counts how many times I check my phone. Over a period of time, shows the day I checked my phone the most times, the least times, and how often I check on average.

13) Llama - For me this app is a MUST HAVE. I'll explain how it works. Basically, when you're at home or at work, your phone is getting signal from multiple cellphone towers nearby. What this app does is remember these towers and triggers certain profiles when they are in the vicinity. So, when I reach home, my phone automatically turns silent and when none of these towers are in range i.e. when I'm outside, it automatically increases the ring volume. You'll have to let it scan once, of course.

Full Screen Caller ID - It delivers just what it sounds like it's promising. It puts a full screen HD picture as the call screen instead of the stock Android one. There are 5 or 6 other apps that do the same thing but I've been using this one since I had a MyTouch3G when it was the only one of it's kind available and I couldn't live without it now. It's very customizable so you can make the screen look pretty much anyway you want for an incoming call and set whatever picture you want for each person in your address book. It also makes answerign and ignoring easy as you can swipe across any part of the screen. See the atatchement for what one of my friend looks like on an incoming call...you can add the phone number, make it landscape, change the font or text size, add answer and reject buttons or take them away as I have etc etc etc. And you can get to the original phone app with the dial pad and what not with a simple double tap on the screen.
I've never been able to figure out why this isn't stock with Android personally. That's how much I love this app.
