is there a good app out there that i can set certain apps to keep the screen awake when they are open?
Keepscreen in the store does it and is free.

Hello guys,
I'm looking for an app that would automatically unlock my lockscreen. I tried the "myLock Auto Unlock" but it lags when I try to automatically unlock the lockscreen.

There's an app called NoLock, which disables the lockscreen completely.

Featured TODAY from Lifehacker, what a coincidence :
http://lifehacker.com/5713691/no-lock-turns-off-androids-slide+to+unlock-gesture
If you're entirely confident in your pockets, your purse, or your butt being unable to accidentally dial people or launch loud apps accidentally, go ahead and grab No Lock. The Android app simply disable's Android's slider-based lock screen.
And that's the only thing it does, really, replacing the usual slide gesture with a simple button to tap. As Download Squad points out, the very nifty Tasker app can disable the lock screen, and even do so under just certain times or conditions (among many other things), but this app requires much less work.
No Lock Turns Off Android's Slide-to-Unlock GestureIt's a free download for Android phones, available in the Market, and you can scan the QR code at left to grab it.

Is there an app available where we can choose what apps we can rotate and not rotate. Plus this app would also need to force rotate the apps that only rotate to one certain way in landscape and not the other. Thank you..

What k0sh it trying to say, is there isn't an app that does that. However, there is the shortcut in the status bar (Samsung roms only) that allows you to force the phone into one orientation only.

The reason I ask is I grabbed a netflix apk and that one rotates to wich ever way I have the screen. The original one that I grabbed from the market did not. So I was trying to see if I could have all my apps do that. But from what you guys said I guess its not available yet. Thank you both for the response..
My kids pick up my device and love to play games. That all fine except sometimes they click my mail or other apps. Is there a way to put lock screen on some apps, or all apps except X app etc? Maybe have a folder on the lock screen for apps that can be in a sandbox/ available to use without lock screen?
Of course there's a security aspect in that once someone is in they can move elsewhere so it needs to be a quarantined area.
Or add a second layer of security for some apps.
Anyone?

Guys,
I own a Samsung Galaxy Tab2 P3110 non rooted 4.1.1. I need to rotate just one app (Simpsons tapped out) 180 degrees permanently. How do i do that? My case floats in one only position and the app rotates other way...
I appreciate your help.
Use an app called ultimate rotation control.

I will try and give you feedback after that! Thank you.
It worked perfect! Thanks
May I suggest a better app? One that is 1/9 the size of Ultimate rotation control? It's called Set orientation and it is not just a trial, it's free forever whereas URC is only a 7 day trial then you need to pay. It is also only 111KB unlike URC's staggering 910KB (almost 1MB!) It however does not have per app settings. But you can use it forever!
Here's the link to the Play Store

My wife has a stock Verizon Galaxy S III. She is finding many new icons on her desktop that all point to Play Store app download links. We cannot figure out which app is placing them there.
Could someone please point me at a solution or a thread discussing this. I have searched without success.
If they are shortcuts to programs already installed then its a setting you can change within the play store itself. However if that is not the case then try an app called Addons Detector by Denper.

They are all shortcuts to Play Store suggesting she download a game or similar app. I will try Addons Detector.

its a rogue app. not the playstore. this is one of my main reasons for rooting. ADAWAY and AirPush Block.
whatever app is doing it IT WILL TELL YOU upon installing. once you open it you have to agree to the terms and cond. it clearly states it will add icons to your home screen and give you ads in the notification tray
