[Q] Simple Text Box Widget? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know of a simple "text box" widget that allows you to post a word or two, similar to minimalistic text but instead of the time, just whatever you want.

Not quite what I'm looking for.

Minimalistic Text has a static text option if you make a custom layout and look under misc.

Edit tool

I was just looking at a friends Droid pro and it had an editing tool that if you held you finger over text it would blow up so you could move the cursor where you wanted like ios. Is this a new app or a new one? Would love to have it for editing text.
I believe he had the Droid pro on a pre-release.

Sense can it does that is just diferent and needs tone redifined IMO but it works mostly in browser (for some reason not text msg and is limited to gmail ) and when you highlight the word in the browser a little option will appear the first one is to copy, and the loop is too search it and the last one is share

XDA App - Enhancement/s ideas???

Hi All,
I've been quite closely following Alterbridge and his Overcome GB custom rom, and since i travel around alot, its been so worth my while following it through the XDA app.
The app itself is clean, no extra fuss, and gives exactly what you ask for. What i'm driving at here is, do you feel its missing anything? Maybe we can get the developer to join us and see if they like our ideas and possibly add them to the app.
i'll go first - i think the option to THANK someone in the forums, if they helped you in any way could possibly be added to the menu (for me in android, its long-pressing menu drop-down on a specific post )
The app itself is VERY similar to Tapatalk but its missing one of my must-have features. I would love there to be a "dark" theme that uses white text and a black background instead of black text and a white background. Just something to think about.
xda app
i still can't figure out how to post with it
Search function, being able to see the smileys instead of text wrapped in colons, ability to re-arrange the order of the favorites list, and the ability to attach files other than images.
I use the XDA app alot, probably more than I visit XDA on my PC, so I guess the little things that the tapatalk app don't do tend to bug me a little after awhile lol.

There is an option to use different themes. Press menu/more/settings/display style. And you want the simple theme.

I'm currently trying to decide if I want to install a launcher. I have launcher pro and not too fond of it. I'm looking at adwex now and I want to get peoples input on the two. Pro's and cons of each.
Have you tried go! Launcher? I'm using it with miui currently and it looks / works great. Similar customization to adw but I prefer go!

I like go! as well but it has one major flaw for me (well, not the app but rather the integration with Android when installing go! add ons like go! dialer). When you get a missed call, you can see the notification in the notifications bar. If you jump to it, it shows rom dialer / log and when you jump out, notification is gone. Normal behavior. But if you tap the phone shortcut in dock and it launches go! dialer by default, you see the dialer / log, but after jumping back notification is still there. Either go! dialer should display notifications in the notification bar so we could disable the android notifications, or the dialer app should remove the stock android notification once event was viewed. Same for go! message app. And go! notifications for dock shortcuts.
But anyhow, I would prefer if MIUI allowed app sorting on homescreen as part of it's launcher. And I do believe this is one of the most sought after features. I don't really like the way MIUI "reserves" blocks for each app and that you must move them to folders in order to sort and that the free spaces left on screen are not used up before adding the next app to the last active screen.
/end rant
I'm not using go dialer or sms. But I don't recall these issues when I did use them. Specifically sms, just turn off default sms notifications.

I think I said it wrong the option is same as gosms or handcent have. It's called strip unicode. Hope I'm clear now (sometimes I can't get my mind to say things clearly)

I am so glad that you guys like it, I am working very hard to put in as many features are I can, every message I get about the app with ideas and changed I am writing down, I want to make an SMS app that I would be happy to use on a daily basis, I cannot stand Go SMS or HandCent as they are ugly and get it the way.
If you have any ideas or changes please feel free to let me know, I am to release 1 update a day.

Thank you for you opinion, The reason messages from us have their pic is because I feel that it is the best way to know who the message is to, if it is right align'd then you know we(you) sent it. Do you have an idea that would improve showing who it was too + that it was from us? I am happy to take on any ideas and changes.
Re: MessageFlow, Twitter style sms manager
Change the colour of the messages Grey or white for them and blue or green for us. Like iMessage or textplus.

Out of interest. Are you using the most recent version of the app where the messages are right / left aligned to show if they were sent/received? I will test color changes tonight.
