G+_Marlon Thompson Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Great show iyaz akhtar a couple of quick things, if the phone is in airplane mode those ads on the free launchers won't show up but its probably not worth the hassle, other launchers such as Nova which I use, also allow you to change the icon like Go Launcher. I would suggest getting a phone with at least 4.0 because you can then hide apps from the app drawer as I noticed you still had some Samsung apps on the phone. Rooting and putting a rom on the phone is also cool as it allows for even more customisation and can resurrect even an old phone that was running gingerbread. I gave my teenage son my Galaxy S with Cyanogen mod 10 (Android 4.1) when I upgraded to the S3 and he loves it because all he uses it for is Facebook YouTube taking pictures and videos of his friends and himself and playing the occasional game.

G+_Raj Thakkar Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Good tips on this weeks' show. Hope you guys have figured what the issue was with your nexus 7. So Is it safe to install Go launcher on a Nexus 7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Yonas A (eriman) Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 iyaz akhtar I like this show. i would also good to mention that you can add $10 prepaid gift card to your dummy google account to let you buy some apps that you want them to have. rather than using your credit card. I have three boy under 8 years old and this is how let them have to buy apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Hugo Seijas Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 iyaz akhtar Have you run into any way to run stock android (without the launcher) but run an app that locks the phone, but lets you choose apps that you allow them can run (angry birds, movie player)? I've seen some on the app store, but none are any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
