[Q] Minimal MIUI Theme disappeared - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys. Hope this is the right place for my question.
Yesterday after a wipe on my GNex i was downloading from the PlayStore all my apps and i've noticed that the MIUI Mimimalistic Theme is gone.
I've bought it some times ago and i've always used it on my screens.
Does anyone know why it's gone?
Will be back?
I've tried to look here on xda and google but can not find any answer

There was a bit if a issue regarding these icons. The designer was accused of stealing them from a XDA member. Both were removed from the Play Store.
Having finally got the chance to instal both icon sets, I can assure you they are pretty different. I MUCH prefer Minimal MIUI to the other set. The quality is better and it includes more icons. Hopefully it will return to the Play Store shortly.

To be honest I wouldnt count on it. Alot of MIUI things are being removed from the play store for violating copyrights and being known for taking the work of others and claiming it as their own.

Today I've sent an email to KXNT, the designer of the theme, and he said he's working to solve the issue.
We just have to wait and pray lol

Oh man...had paid for it and it's so good. So many icons to use... :/

Looks like his new version is up. The name has changed due to "MIUI" apparently being copyrighted. You can read about it on kxnt's tumblr.
Here it is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.launchertheme.kxnt.ui

So we have to buy it all over again??

Better Keyboard disappeared?

Is it just me or has better keyboard disappeared off the market? I had to reflash generic UK and root/go back up to 2.3.3, but when I restored with Titanium Backup, I got the unlocker for Better Keyboard but not the app itself.
Now I'm stuck in an odd position where I can't find it on the market for whatever reason. Can anyone else check their market and see if they can see Better Keyboard?
I cant find it either, just a lot of other better keyboard add ons there. Might be worth emailing the dev and asking about it, if not see if there is a back up apk somewhere
Found it, I assume the dev changed name:
Better Keyboard 8
Here's the old link Old Better Keyboard 8

Yeah that was very strange.. I knew that it was named Better Keyboard 8, but no results came up for me yesterday. I can find it now so all is well.
Thanks for checking.
Their developer account got busted for some weird reason google apparently saw valid. But i assume they are back in buisiness .

I really like Ultra keyboard, does so much and is so customisable but needs a bit of an update - also you have to disable it to use the dpad/touch pads which is very annoying, I love swype and I love swiftkey, I just want them to merge together that would be the best keyboard!

I have Ultra currently, I like it I just haven't worked out how to add a smiley key to it, and it mucks up my colons (puctuation mark - not bodily organ ) every time I try to do one. It is good though.
On a related note, I must be the only person on Earth who doesn't enjoy Swype/Swiftkey at all! Everyone seems to rave about it, yet I can't stand it!
Bit of an update guys, apparently the Developer account was pulled for some dodgy skins in Open Home. They're not going to deal with Google again, but the apps should become available on Amazon App Store soon!

Sorry to summon gost of the past, but someone knows what happen with this keyboard?
I used all time but recentlt I plaing with roms and want instal it again.
Or maybe someone knows good keyboard with chunky buttons most of them got small and my big fingers always pushes wrong ones.
Thanks
Sorry to revive a year-old thread, but seeing as people who search for better keyboard will see this thread on google, the viable option for those still wanting to use it is to either install the Amazon store or find the better keyboard APK. Both can be found with a google search. "Better Keyboard APK" "Amazon app store APK" For those who dont know what an APK File is (Making this new-droid user friendly) you copy the APK file onto your device and select it with a file manager to install it.

*update* MiHOME Launcher

I thought you may like this. Recently, on Twitter, MIUI Rom release MiHome for GingerBread 2.3 devices and for ICS too. It works great, I'm using it. Maybe this is old or not. Just wanted to share since they said it was just released, looked like new. Here is the link for download.
http://t.co/1uEWrNGm
UPDATE: Can be downloaded from Market. MIUIROM tweeted and I checked it. Just search for MiHome.
*I'm not the owner of this app, developed it, or had anything to do about it. I'm not gaining money for sharing. This is a copy-paste from a link that MIUIROM tweeted on their Twitter.*
thanks man . i didnt know about this .this is so nise .
No problem. I guess it works with most devices. Thought it could be useful for most users and would help in the MiUI development.
I tried this out earlier today and its really cool but when I exit an app it takes some time for all the apps to pop back up on the screen

It never happened to me with MiHome but with other launchers it did. I know what you are talking about. I think there's a fix. App re-draws or something like that it is called.

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica

Anyone know how to get Craigsnotifica ? It was the best craigslist notification app on the market and it's gone. I just wiped my phone and flashed a new rom and on purpose didn't do a backup (wanted to start from scratch) but didn't expect this app to just not be on the market anymore.
Any ideas?

I also could really use a copy of this, as I'm in the same boat.
Once I receive it, I will share it across 2 Dropbox Accounts, Google Drive, and a Minus account.
That's four mirrors for the price of NONE!
A PM or a reply, either or.
Thanks in advance.
I discovered a funny little trick, which is the reason I've been able to keep the app: I use the market app Appbak to create a text-file backup of all my installed apps. When I go to reinstall my apps, the app uses that list to go to each app in the market, and if Craigsnotifica is on the list, it WILL show up in the market!
Of course we should all keep a copy of the apk on our sdcards/computer.
Here is the apk: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18474790/com.mufumbo.craigslist.notification.android-1.apk
has anyone noticed that in the past week the app stops displaying the content of posts? it shows the title and the footer, but the main content is missing. I sure wish someone could pickup the dev of this app, as it is, as somoene else posted, the best CL app out there.
thanks.

Yeah, i noticed that too. Not sure why, maybe something changed on CL and the app hasn't been updated in so long.
I don't know if any of you will like this one, but i've been using cPRO craigslist client droid from the market. it does notifications, but they seem to use a lot of battery. But It works pretty well for me searching and browsing.

Thanks alot. I love this app...been using it for couple of years now. The latest version doesnt show the body of ad. I wish it worked though!
Its hard to understand why the developer took this app off the market...did he stop developing it?
If so, someone should carry on the button!!!

I changed the settings and got it to show the body/text along with the pictures etc to show on each ad. Prior to that I would have to click on the peace/craigslist symbol to see the whole add and not just the pics and location.
Once I opened the app and got into the menu I seleced Preferences/Storage/Cache Ads Data (checked the box) and all new post and searches now work like it used too showing the text etc and are also available off line to review later. I am using version 3.28
I am still using it on my G2x until it just flat out does not work anymore. All the other apps I've found just don't compare and all seem like carbon copies of each other.
Now I just need to figure out how to remove the ads since I can't purchase the full app.
Very sad. I tried this and the results came up empty for everything. Every other Craigslist app is crap in comparison to this apps simplicity.
Anyone try this other app in the market yet? It seems really simple, yet has all the features like notifications and posting even. I haven't put it thru it's paces yet tho...
Search for claspics in the market..

I just went into the Play store, and it let me download the new version... I store all of my projects to the Cloud service, so I just synced it and disabled the old copy... if you haven't tried it yet, the changes are very small - although I have to say it feels a bit more responsive, the icons seems a bit refined, and it does sync a bit faster than the previous versions... overall, not a massive/life-changing upgrade, but it's possibly worth it if you use it alot. :cyclops:

No worries! I've only started using PS at all, so the mobile one is 'simple' enough for me to get accustomed to it... the PS on my laptop is a bit of a monster.

Haha I feel like the Mobile one is more confusing compared to the desktop version. Finding everything I'm used to on the tablet has been a learning experience that I'm still going through.
I do find using the stylus (S-Pen) to be useful though. A lot more accurate than I thought it'd be

That's right, I forgot that since the PS Touch came with the Note 10.1 that it is getting it's updates from the Samsung app store, not google. Thanks for reminding me. Looking at the Samsung App Store, they are still offering the version I currently have. I assume at some point they will get the newest version in their queue.

You can find it here (Samsung App Store) http://content.samsung.com Login, click Samsung apps at the top and then type Photoshop in the search box, it will show up as a free app but the version is 1.4.2, last updated Dec 19, 2012.
I purchased SketchBook Pro for Galaxy Note from Samsung App Store, it has a different start screen and it does not show up in Google Play as a purchase but some apps that you install from the Samsung App Store re-direct you to Google play and install from there but I think they are free apps.

You shall not. It's a piracy.
However, it's not a good way to treat customers... if they'll receive no updates for more apps (btw NFS Most Wanted for my N7100 not updated since many months), no one will be using samsung store, and i don't think it's what samsung wants as they are updating their store ("hubs") in an intensive manner, recently.
Sketchbook apps for note devices are in exclusive versions with spen support, that's a different story, they are great, and there is no other official source.
But atm it is a risk to buy a non-exclusive app from samsung if it is also reachable via google, as you can be left with no further updates.
Anybody tried contacting with samsung support? They are going to update PST? Or no such a plans?

There are many people complaining about it not being updated to 1.5 and samsung apps is bad at updating anything or even taking care of their store, I got the avengers game from there as they were giving it away free but when downloaded the game doesn't even start and they haven't updated that and couldn't even be bothered to check the user comments all complaining about this issue.
I went to the photoshop touch forum on adobe's website and saw that there were people complaining about not getting updates and the repliers who I think work on the app didn't know how to solve the problem and that was a post complaining about not getting an update for 1.2....or was it 1.3, anyways they still haven't solved the problem since then and I doubt they care as the app came free with the note 10.1
I went to ask about why upload to cloud doesn't work and was told to update to 1.5 so said about the problem to him and he didn't have an answer for me about the update issue, he kind of changed the subject
I like photoshop touch and it seems to have the biggest canvas I've used without any slowdown or relentless bugs like one art app I gave up with and just unistalled, another art app sketchbook ink, had high hopes for that but seems whatever you paint zoomed in shows blotchy when zoomed out so that's more money I lost on art apps that didn't work properly but apart from the really annoying non palm rejection and the fact that when you zoom out with your fingers sometimes the app doesn't pick it up and leaves marks on the art I'm doing and if I hadn't remembered to do another layer I have to go back and go over all the marks that I didn't spot earlier.
1.5 still hasn't got palm rejection btw and doubt it will for a while
I also like using photoshop touch more than the others because I'm colour blind and can only pick up a few colours without getting confused with other colours and they just have a small few colours and I can add my own pallette of colours by mixing...oh you know what I meant if you had trouble with colours.
I'd buy this app if I didn't already have it and my work that is in psd format can not be imported only saved on cloud plus why should I pay for something I got for free, I don't like this cloud saving it's just another way of getting money from people to sell them a little....empty space that's what is there but you can't see it only if you find it on a computer or whatever you have, next someone will come up with an idea for selling air and probably gravity one day.

[Q] Sideloaded app... safe?

Hi everyone,
I've been a lurker on here, and post rarely, but I was wondering if I could get a bit of assistance. A friend of mine emailed me a Pandora app, said it was cool. Its a different design, version 1.7, labeled "Bad Seed Customs" on the front. Really slick interface, a bit slower than I'm used to, but its all dark so I'm good with it due to battery life savings.
It appears to have the same permissions as the market version of pandora.
How can I tell if its safe, and not like a keylogger or something? I installed it while on airplane mode and scanned it by Norton, it didnt flag it...but I'm still nervous. I like the app, just am paranoid. Apologies if this is a noob question!

Be it dark, light or of any color, it doesn't have any effect on battery life since our Nexus has a LCD panel.

Most likely it's safe but this kind of reflection should really occur before you install.
Hmm... didn't know there were no battery savings. Thank you for that info, noted. I do like the design though, a lot more than stock pandora.
I did think of this prior to installing; was in airplane mode, installed the app, scanned it, uninstalled, left airplane mode... it couldn't have really stolen data, right?
I also did google it, I didn't really find much. I found an old XDA thread, which had a ton of replies, so I'd say it would be fine if I had gotten it from there but the download link had been removed from the thread... the rest of the stuff is just like no-name sources saying "hey here's some candy, get in the van, download this file bro" kinda thing. Turns out that this version is no adds / unlimited skips, according to the google results, I'm assuming the Bad Seed Customs folks hacked the app... worries me more lol.
Talked to my buddy a minute ago, turns out he got the app from a buddy of his, who got it on some website... probably the google search results. Uhg, dilemmas.
