i KNOW, it is awesome... when i first saw that i was like...oooh, oooh...lol Also, it seems you can type A LOT and it becomes a "scolling marquee"... too cool... : )

Amazed at what people can miss. Not to be a peni$ here, but this feature has been there since HoneyComb on my other tablets.
This is my first Android phone, so I cannot say if phones had it prior to ICS. I don't even know if other ICS phones support that, but this being a tablet and I can attest that this feature is not new and has been there since HC on old tablets.
What would be a neat feature is:
1. Add an icon to swipe. Just like on iPhones. I learnt how to modify those swipers that I made my own: with my girlfriend's pic, my pic, my motorcycle, my car, my ***, etc, etc.
2. Gesture unlock just like in Win8. Doodle on a picture to unlock the device. This looks like fun.

Didn't really post my "find" to brag on it or to try and determine, "how long its been around"....
Just wanted to share it with those who might not know about it, it makes the Note EVEN more enjoyable when u turn it on and see ur own lil personalization smilin' back @ ya!

I've had this for ages on my Jellybeaned DHD. Best bit is it is backed up and restored with Google backup.
I have my email address and a plea to return if found. As futile as it might be.

[PRE] Offline charging animations

GET IT HERE​
Hii, all. First of all this is just a preview of offline charging animation. :angel:
Why am i doing this?
Well i think theres almost no custom charge animations (or i dont like them). So i decided to make some minimal and fresh charge animations. Im at school and made these three for now (Gonna make many more, because more we got, better it will be). I got some free hours between the lessions and im bored
Modern, minimal and creative is what i will mostly focus on, maybe requests too.
Please vote on the poll if you guys want this !! (15 days duration)

Sorry for being late. The school is overhelming me. Gonna make the thread soon and give linke here too

Im tempted to come up with a few simple concepts, as you don't need to have it as a battery. Also is the colour issue could be related to output profile, like CMYK or RGB, but if you didn't open or edit them, can't think what the problem would be, I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to android.

Possibly the Best Camera App for Android is now testing on Nexus 5

This has been released for all other nexus devices, as well as the other popular phones. It's in testing for the N5 now! I am stoked!
http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57611881-94/it-wasnt-easy-but-camera-awesome-for-android-is-here/

It's not publically available for Nexus 5 yet though, so this thread feels premature. Cheers for the heads up, anyway.

Agreed, you got me excited with the title, but now I am mad because you jumped the gun. Should have added COMING SOON.

That app is free on iOS. Bummer, but understandable as to why they made it a paid app.

Still waiting on Focal myself

Haven't gotten an answer on this in the other places I've asked. There are two different UIs shown in the pics for the app, one looks like iOS and the other looks like it may be a tablet UI. Can anyone confirm if the latter is a tablet UI. If it becomes the phone UI too it looks pretty nice.

I tried the "A Better Camera" app and I really liked it, only problem was the display was super dark which renders it unuseable - I think its not yet been made compatible with the Nexus 5 - anyone else having the same problem?

Yeah, I emailed them about it and that asked that I send them some pictures which I did. Hopefully they fix it.

is the Camera Awesome app really the best out there? The features look good but the reviews are terrible and not very many downloads...
anyone have real experience with it before I commit $3?

The interface on this app looks so cluttered. I wish someone would just blatantly copy the iOS 7 camera app instead of trying to make an app that has literally every feature but 30 on screen buttons. Just simplicity with necessary functionality. It shouldn't really be that hard.

I can't wait for someone to fix the camera app on N5. The lag is crazy.

Just cuz the n5 is newer doesn't make it better. I just traded s4 for n5 and when I was running aosp 4.4 on my s4 the devices are very very similar. N5 slightly snappier and s4 has a better camera and more storage capacity. They are different devices but one isn't necessarily better than the other

I was half kidding when I said that (hence the wink emoji).
I had a S4 before and did a side by side comparison of the display (the part that matters the most to me).
I couldn't stand the over saturated colors on the Amoled screen.
I love the IPS display of my N4 and my N5. So "I like the N5 better than the S4". To each his own

I'm just messing with ya. Although a 13MP would have been a better choice on the N5.

@sonnysekhon Would you be willing to share the original source images? If it's ok, I'm building a boot animation based off of this which will say "Welcome to Nexus 5

before loading your pulsing animation.

Sure, I bet he did, but it's still a live wallpaper that needs to download images and use the CPU to blur them. It's probably not too much though.

Would only drain battery while the wallpaper is showing. Although using their featured images would have to connect once a day, I doubt the battery drain would be much.

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The CPU doesn't actively need to be used to blur (it could just be a blurred overlay and the opacity cycles to transition).
Additionally, I use it, and since I have it using local images only, it doesn't take a hint of battery. Unless you manually change it, all the wallpapers it cycle through are blurred by default.

Nice find!!! Lovin'it!!
Only question is if any one knows which calender app the screenshot of the app shown in the GP is by any chance??
