Hey
Full-screen does hide navbar. Can you send me screenshots? Did you long hold the screen for more than 3 seconds to enable full-screen?
Non-working of night-mode is an issue on some devices. Which device are you using?
Thanks for the feedback mate.

Shamu = Nexus 6
Suggestion
You should include a couple of 'Fullscreen' gameplay screenshots to give an idea of how it'd look like. I'll give this a try, for sure.
Sorry, yes shamu is the nexus 6 code name. Here are a few screenshots with full screen off and full screen on.
I'd have preferred the grid to cover as much screen-space possible, because with the current setup the grid doesn't scales
Another quirk that I noticed is that on hitting the screen to dismiss the 'Do you want to restart' message, the app registers it as a swipe resulting in a move, not really intended in the first place. Try the original app for reference.
Finally, the 'Nightmode' didn't work for me, but it's okay. Basically I was looking to get an app that features NxN grid + Nightmode/CustomThemes but, couldn't find one. The one I already use, doesn't gives me a dark theme, and that is all I need. So long then, I'll keep an eye out for this space :good:
night mode does not work
cataclysm nexus 5
Hi Guys
I am sorry to see that some of you aren't able to get the Night-mode feature working. I have done some testing of Night-mode online on Testdroid cloud. And this feature was working on all the 7 phones (Galaxy tab, motorola razr, asus fonepad, etc.) on which the testing was done. FYI night-mode text has to be pressed to enable night-mode :silly:.
Since these issues were seen on nexus phones, I am going to get hold of one from my friend and do testing on it. Thanks a lot for the feedbacks.
Thank you @pandroidinc for creating a very promising version of this game. Full screen hid the status bar for me; but not the lower nav bar - honestly, I'm fine with that though.
Clicking Nightmode did not work. I tried long press without the status bar, long press with the status bar, short tap w/o the status bar, and short tap w/ the status bar (in case the status bar hidden knocked the layout outta whack) - no joy.
Running Frank 12.0 ROM (pretty much Lollipop AOSP) on a Nexus 4. I'm happy to help test any updates if you'd like.
Looking forward to seeing this app mature!

Hey equi_design
Thanks for the detailed feedback Well, regarding night-mode issue, I see a trend - it isn't working on Nexus mobiles. I am trying to figure out the exact cause but have no luck till now.

I once had an idea for this app, so i started learning Java to make it happen.
I had a need to keep important information from my clipboard at the front of my attention (e.g text message,email etc) so I added some features and the result is NClip

OMG, this is exactly the app i was looking for.
I had the idea of such an app for months!
Thanks for it!
the cat ran across the road?!
wow! m already starting to like this app,
xD
pretty cool,i've been looking for somthing like this.
Suggestions
This is a great great app and a really good idea.. but I wanna give you some suggestions. The GUI is messy and doesn't properly use space.
On the very top is the Clipboard entry area (this should be at the bottom as its not usually used) it occupies immediately 1/2 of the screen with a large area that is totally wasted. Then, if there are contents on the clipboard they are not displayed nicely in the window (really ugly).
Then because of large unused area for the clipboard, now the Custom entry are is hidden when the keyboard is pulled-up (which by the way should pop-up immediately and it doesn't). Then if I want to add an icon, that menu selection is at the very bottom, so I have to close the keyboard to get there and, that menu doesn't have icon previews, just bullets (it needs icon previews as like the PICK ICON menu item). Finally the NOTE CUSTOM MESSAGE is at the very bottom (worse place), needs to be at the top.
All this makes a single entry an endless effort of way too many clicks to get anything done. I'm on a 7" Galaxy Tab. Look at the screenshots and get inspired
Finally, for this app to make ANY SENSE, it needs to be AS EASY TO ACCESS AS THE NOTES IT CREATES!!!!!!!!!! So, make it run as a hidden notification so it can be pulled down from the taskbar and activated (like the app Clipper - Clipboard manager for example.. you can check it out on the market if you are not sure what I mean)
Really nice app though. I want to love it.. you just need to make it right now
I've already added some features to the program, including the short cut you suggested, just my keystore is 100+ miles away on my desktop so I cant yet publish the update (its been sitting around for over a month).
I have also updated the gui, it shows only what is relevant at a given moment and keyboard no longer poses an issue on my nexus s, literally the app has everything you want (its just not published), i'm working on it

havok123, thanks for the feedback, this is great news! I didn't mean at all to be harsh or overly criticizing.. think your app is truly fantastic and therefor I just would like it you to get it perfect! I'm happy you decided to learn Java just to program this... totally worth it!
When you have an update for the or if you want me to help you beta test/trouble shoot an updated version, post the info here on the thread or PM me. Id love to help you if I can.
Keep up the great work and when its perfect make a paid version. It will be worth it and I think many people would buy it. You can definitely count me in and your work should be rewarded!
Just uploaded update finally.
Updated to 3.0

What's in this version:
N Clip Shortcut
Edit notifications on click
Updated GUI
Bug fixes
Great update, interface much more workable & cleaner.
One suggestion that immediately comes 2mind is, get rid of the sticky app icon that shows up on taskbar when selecting the enable shortcut option. No ned & cluttery. IfU add a note without chooding custom icon, now there are DOUBLE app icons on the taskbar being displayed one of which is NOT a note.. very confusing and unecessary.
If the enable shortcut opion is chosen, we know its there in the pulldown menu already, thats enough &keeps taskbar cleaner for actual notifications only
going to get on it over christmas break xD

Installed the update. Still not working, only now it is worse than before.
It still wouldn't allow me to switch apps, it still didn't launch on phone boot up, but now the update prevented me from being able to install apps from the Amazon App Store. I'd hit the install button after the app had downloaded, but it wouldn't register the button press. I could hit the cancel button though just fine. Play Market apps installed just fine. As soon as I Force Stop Fast5, I cold install apps from Amazon just fine.
Very weird. It works perfectly on my device (SGS2) and my friends devices and all emulator devices (2.1+) and i do not get other complains... what's going on?
Have you installed custom rom or something? Do you see all 5 icons? After pressing nothing happens? Or an error?
I would understand if you'd get some errors, but if it's not booting with the device? There is no way it won't boot at normal device configuration...
Thank you for you cooperation!
Have a look...:
see it in action
I think it's isolated issue but I'll try to fix it for you if you'd like to use this app . Wain for report (if you sent it)
Works fine for me. Absolutely perfect!
its a simple task switcher. didn't see any task "manager" function in app(where we able to kill tasks). or it will be available in the future updates?

Yep it's a switcher. Will change topic name, sorry. But it works fine for you, right?
It works now on ICS too. There should be a new version active on the market within 1 hour (as always). There was one issue. Fixed.
I will test it. Great job
Edit: "error process buy" say my market
Defy > Defy+
Sorry my bad english
Error process buy? Lol... it's free. Did you try do it from the PC? Market kinda buggy thing. Thanks!
I had no problems with installation nor application so does my friends .
Updated version has been released. Should be working fine for everyone, regardless of Android version (2.1 +).
Try it
the update fixed task-clicking on ICS
- could you please add #111111 as an background color option? that's the color used by android for notification backgrounds
- when opening notification area the icons reorder after like 1-2 seconds. I guess that's because the app isn't running in bg permanently but it's still quite annoying, especially when you're just about to hit one of the icons and then it gets replaced with a adifferent one
- is it possible to have more than 5 apps? (yeah yeah, then the name wouldn't make sense anymore, but...) there's so much whitespace between the icons, it'd well fit 7 of them
Sure. No problem. Download an updated version (should appear on the market within one hour) and tell me if you'd like something more. Everyone else too . I'll see what i can do.
As for 7 icons instead of standard 5 on really large screens: could you please send me an email or post me here if you don't mind everyone looking how do it looks on your screen?
Thanks!
thanks for adding ICS color.
for large screen: just turn your phone 90° to widescreen and you can see it for yourself
any idea about the slow updating?
Check out the newest update (v 1.08). Tick a checkbox in preferences, restart an app and see if that fits your needs . As for more than 5 icons - i'll figure it out if you want to
Cheers!
seems good so far. will report back after some more usetime when it's got a bit more to do than show low-memory-apps what does the checkbox do? start a persistant service?
could you please close the notification bar when selecting an app? always makes me think the click wasn't registered.
No, it just shortens update time . Don't worry if it works right . As for notification: will put an option to do so shortly.
Cheers!
This app blocks the 3rd Party App Install on my device (Motorola Defy). You can still press the cancel button, but the install button has no function.
Tested it on a custom CM7 Version and on a Official CM7 Version(with fullwipe).

"It’s happened to all of us. You’re lying in bed and have screen auto-rotation on, and as soon as you open an up on your home screen, the screen turns sideways. Yes, we know we can turn off the auto-rotation in the settings, or change the position of the phone until the text is upright once more, but we’re a lazy people, in a lazy generation aided by technology, and if there’s an app for something, then problem fixed."

Samantha -Read the full review
'OrientationLocker' enables you to toggle the Auto-rotate mechanism EASILY.
Each time you change the screen orientation without any need of pulling down the status bar, going to settings or using external application.
Each time you rotate your phone, the lock symbol will appear and by a single click you will be able to choose whether you want your screen to rotate or not !
• DONATION version offers the following features :
Setting the symbol opacity.
the symbol offset.
More options for symbol timeout.
Setting notification icon as transparent.
Please try the free version to make sure everything is as expected.
Note!
This app will NOT lock your screen permanently in any orientation, it uses the Android auto-rotate mechanism in order to control the screen orientation !
The app requests several permissions - it's all for making it more usable ,
I.E. it will ask for Read Phone status and identity for not interrupting while in call / ring.

Great app! Just one remark: I don't like the intrusive icon. Will future updates include a simple, minimal white-only lock icon to fit with every other icon? It's a small thing but nonetheless it could - personally spoken - be that bit better
This is cool man, it's so annoying that auto rotate screen.

When unlocked - the icon is pretty much white... when locked its colored so you will know its locked.
Can you please upload screenshot so ill see why the icon is intrusive ? i see it as a small icon
Notice you can long click the icon and change its location to one of the screen corners ... !
Can you make the app lock the screen all the times? There were some app auto rotate even we lock the screen (youtube while watching )

Well, I thought about doing so... but as far as I know, it can cause some issues I don't think i want to put myself there, it's really working around the system configurations (think of apps only working in landscape mode, locking the orientation completely will make them work in incompatible mode )
Regarding youtube ... It's actually Youtube fault that their app rotates although auto-rotate is OFF...
Very nice app man, thanks!

Donation version is up for helping with the development costs :good:
I just downloaded the app a few minutes ago. So far, very good. I'll write a review at the Play store later this week, and if I'm still using the app in a week, I'll definitely purchase the donation version.
Thanks!

Here at Codiaq, we believe that an Android launcher should get you to the app you need simply, and fast. The problem is that most android launcher now days slow you down, with loading, multiple screens, and bloatware.
With Prism Launcher, you can quickly open any app with a simple action bar search, additionally you can quickly perform an internet search from the same place.
To access all your apps, simply swipe up. You can also double tap the home screen to get to the settings.
Even though Prism Launcher is very simple, it is highly customizable. Customize everything from Wallpaper to text color, or from icon size to the number of columns.
Please keep in mind that Prism Launcher is still in beta. This means that you may occasionally run into bugs, although this in unlikely. Please feel free to post any suggestions or comments in the appropriate sections of our google + community or in the comments of this thread.
Furthermore, I personally promise to push out an update every week starting today.
Please feel free to download the app from here.
Thank you for your support. Codiaq Team.
looks and sounds cool.
Just giving you a heads up: your ads are under the navigation bar. That means as a user I'm scared of clicking them when I press the navigation buttons (even though they are actually underneath). That also means if I did want to actually click on an ad I would have a difficult time doing so.

Probably one of the most constructive points of feedback I have gotten so far. Thanks . This will be fixed in the next update.
New update being released soon. This will fix an issue that some people had that would cause the app to never launch. This also fixes an issue where the text would not be displayed under app icons after it was checked in the settings. This update also makes French translation significantly better.

Hi all!
I wasn't satisfied with any of the current methods of accessing all apps/contacts so I set out to create my own.
I present to you, Snype.
Snype has a unique dual-index system where switching between "snyping" apps and contacts is almost instant. It has changed the way I use my device and has done the same for many of my beta testers.
It also has a unique "side panel" mode where apps and contacts can be accessed simply by scrolling a finger up or down the edge of the display, which is always active no matter which app you are currently in. A list will appear and automatically begin scrolling to the location in the index that the finger is pointing to.
Snype does not try to replace your launcher. In fact, I designed it so that I would be able to use any launcher I like and not have to worry about the launcher's implementation of the app drawer. This means it's very easy to have a completely uncluttered, beautiful home screen and still be only a second away from accessing any app or contact you desire.
There are no ads and all functionality is available for free. The premium upgrade allows full customisation of the appearance of the lists.
Let me know how it goes for you!
I should mention that the premium upgrade is available for $0.99 for a short period of time to celebrate the launch of Snype. It will be a bit more later.
I love your app Sleep Ambience!

Really good app. I will give you 5 stars!
Some things to change:
- Add more languages
- if possible the alphabet lists have a title to know that one it is for apps, and the other for contacts.
- A widget and a direct access from home.

More languages is actually a surprisingly large challenge due to the indexes. It is something that I might look into again later, but when I was having a crack at it before there were some significant technical hurdles.
I have thought about doing something to let you know at a glance which is for apps and which is for contacts... like different colours or something. I'm not sure. Where do you think the title should go? There's not much room there.
I also looked into doing a widget. Unfortunately widgets don't support all kinds of views so making a widget with this functionality is impossible unless the launcher is built specifically for it. That's actually the main reason I implemented the side panels, because I knew the widget would not be possible.
ability to launch apps in halo would be nice. And maybe icon theme support. Very nice and useful app by the way:good:

Thanks for the ideas
I just released an update to fix some crashes in the initial release.
I just released an update which added animation to the side panels, adds Snype to the list of apps and fixes some bugs. I'm still trying to hunt down some bugs that occur only on some devices. Let me know if you have one of those devices please.
Okay, I think I've got all the known bugs fixed. Let me know if there's anything else wonky.
Just released an update with a new feature: favourites bar.
Now it's even faster to access those special few apps and contacts you use most often.
I love the ability to search contracts easily! And light theme looks cool.
Keep it up!:good:

Very good idea. I'm thinking about replacing my app drawer with this app. Unfortunately the fly in and out animations are somewhat jerky (using a Note 3).

Yeah, Samsung devices seem to do that. I'm not sure why, since even my Galaxy Nexus is pretty smooth and the Note 3 is much more powerful. I'll keep trying to make it smoother for you.
