Flipboard for Android now available!

Just seen this on Engadget.com . Looks like a fellow XDA member (all the credit goes to Valcho) extracted the .apk from a demo SG3 using AirDroid.

It is like Google Currents, or Pulse Reader. Basically an Rss reader
But very attractive. Kind of like a magazine.
I like to use Pulse myself; I prefer function over form

Have you ever used pulse before? Basically you can connect to various newsfeeds and all you have to do is flip the screen up or down to navigate through them. Works well with Facebook and Twitter. You can also connect other accounts such as Instagram and Tumblr.

Nope.
I use News 360 for news stuff. I set it as a widget. One for Top Stories and one for Sports. Fills up a whole page. I like it.
I may check out the Pulse or Flipboard thingy.

Hmmm I don't use facebook so I'm not sure, but I would try clearing data or even uninstalling it and try again, because I read their whole bug forum and couldn't find any record of problems with facebook.

Did all that, still no luck, it connects me to facebook, lets me authorise the app and then gives error could not connect, please try again later...

[Q] Motion Controls

Is there a flashable zip file or a rom or even an app that supports the motion controls from the galaxy s 2 or the galaxy s3, on this phone?

It might help others respond if you picked one of the threads you've started about bringing GS 2/3 features to the GSGS4G and posted there.

Yea I thought about doing that but I didn't think anyone would see it

Creating threads just so people will see them will end up getting you ignored.

I guess I overestimated how many ppl care about motion controls :/ but on the plus side I found an app that did the trick! feel free to delete this and the other thread

There's more than one actually. First one is "move'n launch" next is "tasker" (super complicated) and some others in the related of move n launch. All are in the market. They're not perfect but they're the next best thing after having a gs2/3

[Q] Swiftkey Flow

What do you guys think of it?
http://www.swiftkey.net/introducing-swiftkey-flow

Given that I consider SwiftKey the best keyboard out there for the way I use one, I think it would be an awesome topic for the Apps section!
>>> POOF <<<<
That was amazing!
I'm looking forward to trying it out. I did sort of like Swype, but it was just to buggy, its predictions too far off the mark, and no ability to edit the user dictionary made me leave it behind long ago.

Looks neat I signed up for the beta, tried out touchpal the other day, seemed too bloated but this looks somewhat promising. Thanks for the share.

Why is Flow disabled under special circumstances, such as search bars (except google search).

It is explained on their support site here:
http://support.swiftkey.net/forums/...tion-to-use-swiftkey-predictions-everywhere-i
But, basically, there are two flags that android developers can use to let a keyboard know not to supply predictions. One of them is for a field that offers its own autocorrect. SwiftKey 3 behaves the same way. You can't flow anywhere that you don't have predictions. I hope that they change this and I hope that Google/Android changes how these flags work.

Just went ahead and downloaded this. Been wanting a nice swipe app. This works really well so far. Diggin the customization ability of it too.

Sucks battery like no tomorrow, from what I can tell. CM9 here.

I've read about this application, officially released by Qualcomm for Snapdragon handsets.

Has anyone already tried it? Although in beta stage, it's already supporting our One S.

Trying it now... Thanks for the link! I'll post back with results...

I believe you can post the apk just as long as it is not a paid app which its not.

Didn't show up for me within the app store on my phone, but found it in the playstore on PC and used the 'send to phone' feature to install it.
Intrigued as to whether this will intelligently save battery power or just shut down functionality of the phone.

here it is
