I have limited PPC knowledge, and even less when it comes to codes and programming...so pls bear with me.
I'm wondering if there is a way/app/tweak/regedit to do any of the following:
- utilize a 3rd party music player (ie Nitrogen) directly thru the music tab of TF3D
- utilize the weather radar directly thru the weather tab instead of adding an extra today screen tab. (I was able to put the app thru the weather tab BUT not able to hide the today screen tab)
- utilize a different browser directly thru the internet tab (ie Skyfire) instead of Opera.
Basically, I would like to know if and what is the way to tell the TF3D tabs to point to a USER specifed app...and be able to interact with such app directly thru manila files
Thnx for the knowledge.

I would like to be able to adjust how many items are open at time.
I assume you mean in the fast task switcher view... and so far as I know, nobody has found a way to change that. However, I believe you will find that if you back out of a few of those items, others that were pushed off the end may appear (for example, if you had 6 tabs open in IE and also an app or two, that's more than can be shown in the switcher, but if you use Back to leave some of those items the ones you couldn't see before should re-appear in the switcher).
It's not actually multitasking, BTW. Those other apps are suspended, not doing anything at all (i.e. not "tasking"). Similarly, there are a large number of tasks that are actually running on the phone but which don't show up in that list; background services that wait for incoming calls/SMS, the service that checks email in the background, etc. Currently though, we can't write background stuff like that and have it work on stock ROMs.
Having some spare time in Christmas holidays and after having used and experimented with my GNote 10.1 for about 3 months I thought about making some clean up and streamlining with all the apps I've tried and tested till now.
I've found that I've about 160 apps (of which about 50 apps can be considered as default apps already present in the pristine tablet).
Many are duplicate or alternatives for some "ideal" (but yet "non-fully satisfactory") apps...
I mean... I've 6 different file manager apps, 4 drawing apps, 12 note taking apps, 6 office apps and so on.
I think I'll keep many of them (even if duplicates of each other) for some time until I can judge what is better and what's not, to choose the best ones for my needs and also to see if the developers are making progresses (or if the app's development has practically stopped).
To understand better what I have and what I might choose or discard for each activity (note taking, office etc.) I've made a categorization in Excel (in my PC).
But I thought also there could be some (meta) app to organize and categorize apps inside the tablet itself.
After some search I think that Auto App Organizer could be the one.
It allows to categorize all apps and to navigate to them by browsing the categories. I think this could be much better and more convenient than creating category folders through the launcher.
Does anyone use it? Is there any other advisable alternative?
So, I thought we could make a thread for what apps you find most useful, that let you accomplish the most throughout your day..
Apps which help you with your workflow from Work to Home
Apps that would make you feel hindered, slowed-down, or less productive if you didnt have them
Apps without which you'd feel you'd have alot more work to do, or have less hours in your day to get things done
Whether you're a Traditional Artist, a Digital Artist, a Graphic Artist, a Fashion Designer, an Interior Designer, an Architect, a DB Engineer, an IT administrator, a Program Developer, if you're in Marketing or Advertising, if you're a Business Owner, a Company Manager, Office Staff, a Landscaper, a Florist, or whatever job you have.. Please share the apps you find most helpful
It could include anything from your favorite Graphics or Sketch program, a Calendar or Contacts Manager, a Daily Planner, a Financial Management Program, a Employee Scheduling program, a useful Programmer's notepad, or anything else you'd like to contribute
This also includes apps which you feel make your Android itself a more effective & Efficient device, such as task managers, button manager, switchers, or you own app workflows, or anything else..
This is an attempt to compile a list of the most useful Android Apps out there, Free or Paid, that other people could try out, or that you think might help other people increase their own productivity throughout the day or week, using their Android Device
I think we could all use better time management and a bit more free time in our lives

Seems nice, but, why didn't you start?

Heh.. I'm still looking for some
I currently use ES File Explorer for all my cross-platform File Browsing & File Transferring needs
& I use ES Task Manager for my Task Management.. u know, I've rooted my device, and I've tried alot of task & memory managers, but have yet to find something to tell me whats talking up memory when I get some malicious program that zeros out my memory until restart.. or suddenly occupies hundreds of MB which mystically goes unaccounted for.. I just feel there is still so much going on in my phone I have no control of and i havent found any solid program to give me that control
I use Adblock Plus, but it only works through a proxy, which stops me from seeing things through my Firefox browser... I still havent found a reliable way to block all ads. lets be honest, alot of those freeware apps wouldnt ever be bought even if they only had no ad paid versions.. it seems everything has ads now... and this isnt going to fix it
I use Floating Stickies for cross-app data transfer
I use Screen Off & Lock to conserve battery power & buttons
I use Swapps for fast app switching...Its great, but I'm still searching for something a bit better
I use Hackers Keyboard from Swapps just to switch between one of about 10 inputs I use
Touchpal X is currently my keyboard of choice.. but I dont like how it doesnt suggest most frequently used words.. and I.m not getting a full 26key keyboard for Pinyin either.. I'm currently talking to the devs about that.
I currently use Screenshot Ultimate, but still would like something with area capture, and expandable multi-line textboxes
I use Image Search for finding quick Photos to throw onto my social networking apps, mainly WeChat
and I use Floating Soft Keys for quick navigation, but I wish it would have an option to swipe to disappear off screen
but I'm still looking for a program which displays available memory, includes a list of running apps, end app & minimize app functions (i dont want android managing which apps to leave open or end).. with options to delete Cache of programs on end... also can free RAM, even from malicious programs that suddenly swallow over 200mb... and can let me add my favorite app buttons..
and I'm thinking of purchasing Softmaker for an Office suite, though it lacks Macro functionality and Wildcards in Find & Replace
I currently dont have many other programs, like calendar, time managment, etc.. I sorta recently moved from WinMo to Android. and I'm missing alot of my old WinMo apps to be honest.
-- Maybe a good question for me might be, what apps make you feel you have as much power & control as you had on WinMo, for the oldtimers here

There are existing threads for this sort of discussion:
[Discussion] Discuss your favorite app, tweak, widget, etc. (Least favorite OK too!)
[23.apr.2013] *COLLECTION OF THE BEST APP/GAMES FOR ANDROID* 165 apps - 200 games!!!
HELLO
I was looking for it there and unfortunately I have not found it anywhere; (
Namely, I mean applications that would allow, for example, to play slots in the background and slots would go on ..
Or if, for example, Billionaire Cassino applications will be downloaded to a pc and an opening (for editing purposes), where and how to do?
I would like to add that the DeltaMediaPlayer application works without any problems in the background, moreover, even on the locked screen
Batteries are really playing and I'm not hiding that I'm a frequent player, for example: Billionaire Cassino
Thank you very much for your help
