Hello everybody I have been using htc wildfire s for over 3 years and I want to change my phone lately. I am not a person who wants to pay a lot of money to a mobile phone and also I don't wanna give up on android. I just wanted to ask that if it is possible to change the background at the app drawer in moto g. Because i don't like to see black background all the time. (in wildfire s i can not change it with the stock rom).
I don't want to root the phone at the minute i buy it, also i dont want to install any launchers as they make the phone slower.
There's no way to do that in the stock AFAIK.
You could always try Google Now Launcher; it was the first ever app I installed on my phone

Nope.
Smooth as butter.
Plus, it makes your phone look like a Nexus 5

Launchers won't impact this phone much as it has 1 GB RAM and a Snapdragon 400.

I wonder if it's just me, but when i install other apps liek GoSms, or the GoContacts app, they never run smoothly and constantly lag especially when i need to access what these apps handle quickly! Do any of yall experience such a problem? Thanks!
Are you rooted? I don't have any problems with apps like miui camera or handscent sms. Are you having problems with other apps or just what you mentioned? because I didn't have good experiences with Go sms, maybe experiment with other apps.

Yup guys you can change your system animations:thumbup: via this app u am not the developer I just support this app and would like to share this one with you guys
Description:
This app will make Theming your phone as easy as tapping on a button. The concept is easy:
You tap the MOD you want, and Framework Tool will apply it for you. Currently there are about 40 functions,such as animations, dialogs, backgrounds and other aspects of your phones or tablets system, but it is in beta state, and more will be added in the next hours, days, weeks, months. Now it is your turn! Take control of your phone and make it fit to your mood and style, use hot features as the possibility to use your own backgrounds (in the Settings application as an example) for the system (3.0+), with just a few taps, and no computer required! This application needs ROOT ACCESS and R/W on /system ! This App can now run on versions below 4.0, BUT all modifications are designed for Android 4.0, so they may not work as intended on versions below that!
Warning: Framework Tool does change framework files which may not be compatible on some ROMs or devices. Always make a backup before installing and use at your own risk.
Here's the Link

Tried it. Bought it.
Didn't change animations at all..
LiquidSmooth ROM (4.2.2)

First you must run the compatibility check function of the app to see that your ROM supports it or not...

Wow, this is great! Thanks!
I guess then u r unlucky
It is possible that this app makes the ui slow sometimes? it takes ages to open an app or switch between tasks in some cases

No it just changes system animations it must have happened if you have chosen a heavy animation on a mid end device
Well I don't think the Gnex is a mid end device... And the only change I made is activity switching to ios sliding.

Bad luck then try applying animations again or instead try a reboot I have always used it on a fresh flash so it was never the case for me
I advice you to use it on a new flash...
You can also set the speed for animations using Framework Tool, in case you they are to slow for you. On start screen open menu and then you will see.
Thanks for yor responses guys.
I don't mean the animation is slow, I mean it takes a lot of time (3 or 4 seconds) to start the animation. Once started, it goes smooth.
This happens only sometimes. I'm trying to figure if this issue is ROM related (pa 3.1). I'm going back to aokp and try again.
Thanks!!

Technically, android waits for the app you touched to draw the first image, then animates to it.
Another thing: You are on Android 4.2 right? Then the changes Framework Tool applies to the framework (in the aspect of app start animation) are "ignored".
The only impact on performance is if you change the "standard background", if it is very high-res, if will definatly have an impact on performance.
Sincerely,
Janis Elfert (dev of Framework Tool)
PS: As always, if you like my app, make sure to rate it!
works awesome!

If you haven't already, leave a nice rating at the Play Store. It would be very nice, cause it's rating will jump to 4.00 then !
It works most of time for me.
I bricked my phone last week because I used 990 software...oops. I got it all working and in the end I now have CM7 on here.
There is only one feature I really truly miss from my old phone (it was JB I think...) and that is being able to stack icons on the desktop/homescreen. It's why I tried to upgrade this phone in the first place. Are there any apps that imitate this feature which work on our phone?
You mean make folders on the home screen with more than one app in them? That's more of a launcher thing. Try Holo Launcher. That's a good one with a ICS/JB feel that supports folders.

People please, hold your horses. He's referring to the smoothness of the device as why it's not as smooth as the iPhone is. Well firstly it all comes down to the specs of your handheld device.
If you are on a popular phone or have a phone that has either Jelly Bean Or KitKat then I suggest you switch to that as it had vsync which increases the frame rate display. It makes your device run smoother than usual. If you're on a low end phone a then there isn't much you can do unless you clean up your phone a bit.

use custom rom like MIUI ROM.,
before any suggestions on how to speed up your phone or make it smoother can be answered, we need to know which phone you have ie: make, model, year, android version etc.
i say this from experience, until very recently my phone no one was supporting my phone for custom roms, no working cwm even, and still no custom kernels so to get a proper answer that will really help we need your phone details bud.
cheers

Try Nova launcher, a lot smoother than stock

Agree. One of the best launchers
If you want to increase responsiveness on your phone install Seeder. Its reccomended if you have a old or low end android device.

Either buy an iPhone, or buy a new high-end Android phone.
Or tweak your device. It's all in here.
Hey guys, even until now, instagram isn t smooth on note 10 plus, the animations on iphone are much better and they exist on instagram, not on android...why?
Hi! So I just rooted my N5, flashed Franco Kernel, Xposed+Gravity Box. So after this when I'm at the home screen there is an ever so slight lag when I click the recents button or go home from app tray, etc. So basically it kind of lags on the home screen, no widgets or anything. Is this my fault and is there anything I can do to fix it? Thanks!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
mess with the settings, find what you like. if youre still unhappy, try a different kernel, or different rom. try a few, find what you enjoy and what fills your needs. then youll be trully happy

Okay I'll try to fix this or I'll flash a rom. I think it's Gravitybox that's making this beauty lag.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
It is gravity box. I quit using it for the same reason. Now, if I want features like what GB offers, I just use slimkat... Which has most if not all plus more hard coded

Oh I knew it may have been the culprit! Well I think I may just flash a custom rom for the features and avoid the lag. Thanks for the awesome advice!
