Maybe a dumb question but is there a way to jump to the top of chrome or any other app...sort of way iPad n iPhone does when click near clock?

There isn't a setting anywhere that I've found that enables the fast scroll go the top of the page iPhone style. There may be a third party app or a script to run that enables that functionality. If anyone knows of such a modification, please chime in.

I was just thinking this today. To my knowledge there isn't anything. I'm going to look on market.

No, however, some apps build in functionality for jump to top.

Just from Google responses, it looks like the Dolphin HD browser has this built in

I prefer Boid because it uses a nice looking holo theme and has the smoothest scrolling of any Twitter app I have tried. A close second would be Plume.
Falcon pro, trust me, best twitter app EVER. Awesome Holo interface, fluid and every feature you can think of is there. And its free.

I have been bouncing between tweetcaster pro and plume and like them both.

Falcon pro is really nice in don't have much opinion because I use. Twiter more like a news feed and not a social platform
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I agree with Falcon pro, and easily my favorite, and just seems the most fluid, clean, and just beautiful.

Plume is a personal favorite. Multiple column in landscape is perfect for tablets. Always a solid experience for me, but I'm not really a "power" user. From what I've seen, a frequently updated app. Awesome on the phone as well. :thumbup:

Flipboard. Simple and clean design. One app for all news and updates.

I like Tweetcaster Pro myself but you have to pay for it. Try the free version and see if you like it...

Should switch to flipboard really.

Just installed Flipboard on my N7. Very nice way to view my twitter feed. Thanks for the tip!
twitter official app is the best
+1 for Falcon Pro, it's the only client that doesn't feel cheap to me... (Scrolling, and the UI in general)

falcon pro widget or android pro widgets twitter widget that's what I use

If you're up to flashing a ROM, try paranoidandroid. They've brought back tab ui and also allow you to set the ui and DPI for each app independently.

FWIW... I'm on Thundercat from 12/27/2013 and it has a Nav Bar Left/Right/Center option. The ROM performs perfectly for me, too.

Why not? It is faster now (for some phones) still doesn't mean it is good.

That is even worse than the app
Try fast for Facebook or flipster

Was in the same boat you. Currently using this app called Facebook stream or stream. It works nicely so far

[REQUEST] FB Messenger floating head style notifications for SMS

Specifically something that emulates the ability to 'open' a head and reply without entering the app.
I've had Floating Notifications for a little bit on my phone and it's just not what I'm looking for. I also used to use SMS Popup years ago which was quite good but I'd rather something less obtrusive that lets me chose when to see the popup rather than it just appearing and interrupting whatever I'm doing.
Is there anything out there like this? I'm sure I head of something when they first added it to FB Messenger but I can't seem to find anything.
EDIT: I've just installed SMS Extension but I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for.

Installed this so big thanks to gnotelover, but one question.. How can I add more homescreens?

Select an app or widget, and then move it to the right of the home screen and keep going. A new screen will appear.

You need to move the icon to the edge of the screen to the right, hold it there for a little. It should automatically take you to a new screen.
Thanks guys, human error... I was trying to do it with a widget, but it works with an app, not a widget..

Is this Google Now Launcher the same as the 0.10.1.920880?
Or what is the version number for this new one?

Thanks Jhall8. Do you also happen to know how to stretch wallpapers too? I can't get any wallpaper to fill up the screen even very large high def images.

Thanks again. I've tried that already but didn't bode well with my favorite walls. Tried clearing data in Google search got rid of the black bar on the right of the wallpaper but stretched way too much. Oh well.
Can anyone confirm whether the latest version of Google Search and/or the latest Google Now launcher goes back to the 6 x6 grid that Google search version 3.1.8920880.arm had? Every time I tried updating to new Search version it cuts off one of the columns which throws my whole homescreen setup and wigets off. I think the updates cut it to only 5 columns
