Uh, yeah. You're just a little early.

Never know, there might be a ton of people from I/O that would hop on here and tease the rest of us.

Or maybe some of the folks who overpaid on the Bay, for the complimentary 7's that were given out at the convention last week, might make a posting.

you can use an app called "Ultimate Rotate" to do landscape with the stock launcher and here's how it looks in landscape.

Thy eyes detect FF3, which is in the market for a rip off price of 15.99. No wonder they're going down the tube but I bought it anyways.

This is a BIT off topic, but i have been told that certain apps (like gmail or people) switch to one pane mode in portrait and 2 pane in landscape, can anyone confirm this for me?

I see two panes in Gmail app: left pane shows all the labels & right pane shows email message. But, while in portrait, if you were to select an email message, it will switch to 1 pane. For landscape, it always shows 2 pane.

This is standard for all apps that support Portrait mode. G+, Astrid, Gmail, Springpad, etc. All of them do this.

Ubuntu Phone Dock (App)

I found this app that allow you to have a dock like the Ubuntu phone And it works relatively well https://play.google.com/store/apps/..._result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5mYi51cGUiXQ
Enjoy!! I assume this would be good for those who have an Ubuntu phone theme.
It is very fast and I love it if you buy the premium version you get to add more apps to the dock

The premium is $3.88 and the premium advantages are listed in preferences. I don't think you can change the icon size yet.

If you turn of your phone you'll have to click the app again to launch the dock.

Google Play Starting to roll out as of today.

Taken from the official Android blogspot
Whether you’re in the mood to listen to Justin Timberlake’s new album, read Harlan Coben’s latest bestseller or discover a new game to play, you want the experience of finding and making your purchase to be quick and easy. Today we’ve started rolling out a redesigned Google Play store on Android phones and tablets that is simple, clean and — most importantly — helps you find great entertainment, fast.

The new design focuses on bigger images that jump off the page. Similarly themed content is grouped together so you can hone in on a magazine to read or an app to try. As you move down the page, new recommendations continue to appear so there is always more to see and explore. We’ve also simplified purchasing so you can breeze through checkout and get to enjoying your movie rental or other content.
The redesigned Google Play store app starts rolling out today for Android phones and tablets running Android 2.2 (Froyo) and above. People around the world should see it over the next few weeks. Get ready for a simpler Google Play.

now we just need the apk

Now to play the waiting game.

thx man. new playstore looks beautiful.

I don't really like the green text on grey bg. Also, it's a shame there's no front page if an user's country only has apps enabled (at least I don't have it).
It seems the option to disable AdMob is no longer there.

Looks great! Thanks for the scoop...

[List] Must Have Nexus 7 Apps

I plan on transferring all of my apps and games over to my Nexus 7 with Paranoid Android ROM installed via Titanium Backup minus the Samsung only stuff in the coming days... figured I'd post this to give other people ideas about what to install on their amazing new devices since it can be time-consuming to search and navigate the market sometimes if you are new to the Android scene. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
Here are some screenshots of my Samsung Galaxy Note II smartphone as of 08.12.13. Four Apex Launcher Pro homescreens running in CleanROM V5.0 with Perseus Kernel V36.3... The screenshots include my most used and favorite apps somewhat sorted by category... have around 220 apps installed after months of stability and battery testing, but have narrowed it down to the best to be displayed on the 196 available spots due to the custom 7x7 grid... check it out if you need some new Android apps!

Reserved for op

RESERVED FOR OP... feel free to add additions to comment on your favorite apps in the comments or add some screenshots if you'd like. Thanks!

You "must have" all those? My only "must have" are:
1. SS Launcher
2. Naked Browser
3. K9 mail
(and XDA app, being 1 of 99 others)

Must have means apps you MUST have..

Even that app isn't as crappy as all of the "Must have apps" threads. I actually (used to) use a poop app, but now that I'm taking more regular fiber, I don't need to monitor it quite as much as I did a few years ago when I got, erm, backed up..

If you mean, that you can get the other apps by downloading them, then your answer is retarded and contradicts itself.
