Android app working as home screen - General Questions and Answers

Is there any way of making app working as home screen? I mean, similar to HTC blink feed, covering one whole home screen and running in background. I think it is possible, but I failed searching for more info about this. Also, are there any apps which work similar to blink feed?

Widgets for Smartwatch 2?!

Hi,
did you notice the screenshot on the rear of the smartwatch 2 casing showing a widget on the home menu of the whatch? Interesting... but its not implemented in the firmware.
Today i looked through the developer pages of sony. And i found this:
http://developer.sonymobile.com/re...nyericsson/extras/liveware/aef/widget/Widget .
So what do you think? Are widgets coming soon to sw2?..
edit:
also in the official sony sw2 video the widget screenshot is shown (sec 00:10) :

Do you think widgets are usable on a smartwatch?

There is already a paid app that brings widgets to the SW2 which is pretty useable from what I've read. It would be awesome if Sony made that option available by default though!
whats the paid app for widgets called?
Remote Widget
yeah remote widget works. But thats no widget on the homescreen. What i mean are widgets on the homescreen of the sw2. So you dont have to start them, u use the directly on the homescreen.

I guess this feature will follow in a firmware update. Just like the clockfaces with date did.
Widget was when this watch was first time show to public.
Later when watch finally relased Sony decided to get rid of that and few more functions.
Some clock faces missing, shake to backlight and few more.

Why? Isnt that cheating?
hmm it seems like the software is beyond the hardware development... the ambient light sensor is another example... the hardware is there but the software functionality was just added.
Are there any official press releases with these announced but not shipped features?
For me it almost seems like sony pushed the hardware to be released as early as possible cause of competitors like galaxy gear. So the software we got is a really early "pushed to work" product. Essential features like the auto backlight or the mark all read function were not in on release. For me the shake to backlight feature is also such an essential one...

reloading home

Hello,
I'm galaxy tab 2 7.0 user and it's running oficial cm11. I've got a problem with home app. I'm using GEL launcher. Unfortunately it often reloads when I get back from some apps, even if they don't require big amout of ram. So is there any easy way to lock it in memory? I'm using ART so I don't want use xposed.
Cheers

Default gallery app

Hello, I just bought mi4 and one thing that's bugging me is the gallery. I downloaded quickpic which I use for years and set it as default app. But still when I took photo and click on the preview it takes me to miui Gallery. Is there any way around this?
